listened to by the class in rapt attention
and at its close Mrs. Ewing took the pic

placing them on platter passed
them around the class for inspection.
MANY were the compliments passed on the
appetizng look of this rare dish.
The following recipes are appended as
the result of yesterdays lesson. Ladies.
cut them out and paste them in your scrap
cook books:
Shirred eggs-Were first illustrated by
breaking two eggs into small fire proof
saucer adding salt. pepper and butter to
season, and baking in the oven till cooked
to the consistency required. This manner
of cooking was varied by adding a spoon
full of white sauce in place of butter as
seasoning: and varied still again by
sprinkling cheese or minced ham over the
eggs.
Eggs a In creme-were hard boiled eggs
cut in half, the yolks removed and mixed
with equal portion of finely mixed bread
crumbs, moistened with milk, cream or
butter, seasoned to taste, and returned
each half of the white in the form of cup
each holding yolk.
Scallopped eggs-were hard boiled, the
whites finely shredded and piled lightly
upon platter, the yoli1s of the eggs piled
in the center and white sauce poured over
and heated in the oEen.
Explicit directions were given IN how to
cook omelets and several kinds were cook
ed and eaten. Directions were also given
in scrambling and poaching eggs.
Today the last lesson OF the series will
be given and will relate to cake making,
The latest kinds Of cakes will be made for
inspection. This, it is thought. will be
the most interesting lesson of the two

ordinary case of smuggling at Sourabaya, in
Java. A Chinese passenger having died on
board a junk which was anchored il the
roadStead, the health o.Scer of the port went
off and after viewing the body, gave the nee
essary permit for burial The master of tie
junk then came on shore and ordered a large
coffin OF the usual Chinese kind During the
early hours OF the morning. the crew with the
coffin landed and the funeral procession
passed along the streets amid the burning Of
sacrifcial papers, beating of gongs and the
other customary demonstrations Of sorrow
One Of the crew walked IN front carrying the
burial permit. After the funeral the party
went back to the junk. which Immediately
put out TO sea- In tine middle of the day
some natives found an empty coffin in the
road close by the Chinese cemetery, which
not only slnelt strongly of opium but also
had small particles of the drug adhering TO
its sides TIE custom house authorities

it as the one supplied 10 the master of the

ANOTHER WHOLESALER VISITS US.

H. d. Lee, of the Salina Mercantile COM
pany, spent Yesterday in the city and
called during the day in company with
Colonel Milton Stewart who was showing
him about the city, giving him general
insight into our business interests, adj
vantages, ETC., etc. Knowing Mr.. Lee by
reputation to be silrewd business man of
wide experience and observation what he
said of his impressions of Wichita became
of double interest. Touching our future
as a commercial city, he said that years
before he came west he had concluded that
this was destined from it's location and
evident advantages the city of Kansas,
but that after personal inspection of its
acquired forces and rapidly growing pow
ers there was no longer any question of its
great future. He said that in his judg-
ment there was profitable room today for
double the number of jobbing concerns in
all the branches represented. He was
aware that number of representatives of
eastern jobbing houses had been visiting
Wichita of late but he felt no fears of the
trade being overdone.

DIED FROM GUN SHOT WOUND.
An Eleven " ar-Old Boy Meets With
Fatal Accident.

Late Thursday evening a very sad ac-
cident occurred seven miles southwest Of
the city. Ray Chatfield, an eleven-vear-
old son of William Chatfield, attempted to
remove a shotgun from a corn crib to the
house He did not know it was loaded,
not having at any time been allowed to
handle 1t. He took hold Of the muzzle
and pulling it towards him the gun dis
charged. the contents taking effect in his
abdomen 1t was loaded with buck shot
and some passed through him. He fell to
the ground and was carried in the house.
A messenger was sent to the city for
physician, and returning on examination
the wound was pronounced fatal. The I'M
fortunate boy suffered intensely until yes
terday morning, when he died.
The funeral services will be held Sun
day morning at 10 o'clock. 1t is thought

which the city is built, the narrow street
seems to lead to the top of the hill at an
angle of about forty-fve degrees. 1t is
slippery with mud and offal, and it is a
''hard road to travel"
Baggage is carried by porters, who
have a sort of blackboard with a shelf,
upon which the trunks rests. The
traveller follows him as we'll as he can.
He has not gone far before he encounters
Turk leading a donkey or a mule with
a pair of panniers across his back, each
of them filled with cordwood or some
other commodity. There is only space
enough for that beast of burden and his
load, and the only thing the walkist can
do is to dodge into the first convenient
doorway, or break into the midst of a
family of Moslems squatting on the floor.
The Rue de Pera is wider, but hardly
broad enough to permit two loaded mules
to pass abreast of each other. I reached
it in safety by great fortune, but l had
hardly touched its pavement before a
a mule loaded with joists, twenty feet:
long or more, put in a claim for posses
sion of the entire thoroughfare. The
sticks were crossed at his shoulders, one
end projecting beyond his head and the
other dragging on the pavement behind
him. The mule had it all his own way,
and was as Independent as ''pig on
ice." But the wayfarer may drop into a
store on this street, and if he don't "talk
Turkey" he may resist the importunate
appeals of the salesman to purchase.
have not the least idea how many
dogs there are in Constantinople, but 1
should think they could compete with
the human inhabitants of the city. They
are not noted for their beauty, and no
dog fancier would be likely to go there

all "yellow dogs rather diminutive in

Ordinarily the dogs are peaceable cltl-
zens, and make the best of their hard
lot. 1t is said that the CANNES have GER
tain quarters where they belong, and
where they claim certain inherent rights
and privileges, and are at all times ready
to defend them in a pitched dog tight IN
going about the city one occasionally
hears the barks, yells and growls OF such
q conflict.
One night was walked from my sleep
by most hidcous din not far from the
hotel. 1t sounded as though the entire
million, more or less, Of dogs In the city
had come together in a general engage
ment. They seemed to be all yelping and
growing in concert. Now and then the
sounds indicated sharp encounter, and
one might suppose the brutcs were tear
inr each other to pieces. They fought
for a long time, though peace was made
in the end and the racket ceased. l
called upon my man Dimetri the next
morning for an explanation. The ter
ritorv of certain clans Of CANNES near
the hotel had been invaded by guerilla1
from another region, and this had caused
the fight. He was unable to inform me
whether or not the victory was with the
invaders, but thought not, for the dogs OF
any quarter were generally strong enough
to maintain their rights against oil out
siders.
The Turks are too stoical to take any
interest in these dog fights, which would

from this aspect one might expect to
realize there some of the dreams of Ori-
entail magnifcence But as soon as the
visitor lands, the illusion begins to dis
solve, for one could hardly find more
dirty or disagreeable place on the face of
the earth.
Most of the streets are not more than
eight feet wide, which affords only about
space enough for the mud and the dogs.
Carriages and omnibuses are not to be
obtained in Constantinople, and the only
way to get to the hotel is on foot. Pera
is the quarter where foreigners reside,
and the hotels are to be found there.

Treasure in the Transyaal.

Daily discoveries are being made all
over the Transvaal of new reefs and
mines containing gold in paying quanti1
ties. The Transvaal mines are even at
tracing Cabinet Ministers from their TO-
lios, as was instanced the other day when
the Colonial Secretary took the post of
Secretary to the Consolidated Investment
Company of Johannesburg, company
that, with a capital of e175, 900, is al
read in the way of making by rents
alone of properties purchased for S75,-
900 about $50, 900 per annum, and is
likely to carry on one of the largest busi-
nesses in South Africa. Its scrip is not
issued yet, but as much as seventy-fve
per cent. premium has been offered for
shares in the company. The gold e17
ported from the Cape last month!
amounted to $4,000 ounces, valued at
9S3, 900, and the total value of gold e1ii
ported for the last eight months
amounted to f529, $50. The output of
gold from the Randi last month is esti-.
mated at $4,000 ounces, of which one
company alone, the Langlaugh, con!
tributes $500 ounces.
There is no doubt that this country
should attract the attention of Americans
in another way as great outlet for their
trade in machinery and other things
Much expenses and loss are incurred by a
want of knowledge of mining and the
want of proper machinery. There is q
field for an enterprising firm. The
country of the Matabele is about to be-
opened up by company to whom a
royal charter has been granted, and in all
directions are signs of enterprise such as
is only known where mining is carried
on on a large scale.-New York Sun.

The Turks have some sort of a supersti-
ton in regard to them, and though they
do not feed or care for them, they pro-
tect them from destruction. Doubtless
they are an important factor in whatever
degree of health the city may enjoy, for
they appear to be the only scavengers that
are tolerated. They belong to no own
ers, and they have to pick up their living
from the otfal thrown into the streets.

Then 'tw.; 8 June-'tis now November
For my locks are turning gray.
Once the future seemed une2dinS.
Sea-shell tinted, gi!ded, gay;
Now beneath its years I'm bending,
For my locks are turning gray.
Fair was hope and youthful visions,
Love hold undisputed sway;
All have filed their empty missions,
And my locks are turning gray.
Idle dreams no more enthrall me.

Deeper marks of life's decay;
