like results, and the stoning did not cease I'M
til ell 100 damage had been done TO the
fronts of the fashionable West End.
Burns, Williams, Champion and Hyndman
were arrested on the following day, charged
with seditious conspiracy. The trial did not
take place until In April, 5th-10th, when 1t
was heard at the central criminal sessions In
the Old Bailey, before Mr. Justice Cave.
Strong speeches were made at the trial by
Burns and Hyndman, in which they ar
raigned the social system Of Great Britain,
and charged that the then demoralized con-
dition of affairs was due to the indifference
and recklessness Of the aristocratic govern
ment. The defense consisted Of testimony,
the chief witness being Superintendent Dun
lap, showing that the accused had used every
effort to check riotous demonstration on Feb.
s. and then had 1t not been for the influence
of the defendants the damage would have
been much greater and probably arson and
murder have been the result The accused
were all discharged
It will be remembered that Sir Edmund
Henderson was forced to resign from the
head Of the London police department short
ly after the Trafalgar Square meeting Of
Feb. s. It was shown in the official inquiry
that followed the troubles Of that day that
the rioting was due to the fact that there
were NO police to restrain the mob between
Trafalgar square and Hyde park. Burns did
not seem to be frightened by his arrest, for
he continued to agitate In England and Scot
land as an apostle Of the Democratic Fedora
ton, and was not again interfered with by
the authorities.
From the tone Of the dispatches and the
English journals it appears that the people
of London look upon him as an agitator
along peaceable or Legislative lines, as he
claimed in his trial in 1898 and still claims he
is The reports state that his efforts have
been directed toward keeping down rioting
in the dockmen's strike, and the professions
Of 10000 strikers which he has led through
the streets Of London during the past few
weeks have been perfectly orderly; yet he
has unfinchingly stood for the demands made
by the strikers, and leaves no stone unturned
to secure what they claim.
John Burns, 1.-THE man with the red flag"
is certainly a remarkable character.

POINTS ABOUT JOHN BURNS, THE
MAN WITH THE RED FLAG"

He Is the Leader of the Present Move
ment, and He Has q Record as an Agi-
tator That L. Well Worth Thoughtful
Consideration.
John Burns, leader Of the great London
dockmen's strike, is Scotchman by birth,
and Is only SO years of age. He Is a ma
chinist engineer by trade, and was employed
by one of the dock companies prior to the be-
ginning Of the strike Burns Is a large and
we'll proportioned man and has a remarkably
strong voice, especially adapted to out door
speaking He has for years been identified
with the labor movement in England as an
active member of the trade union of his
craft, and during the past four years q
leader and orator in the Democratic Fedora
ton, the formidable Socialistic organization
of Great Britain, of which William Morris,
the poet; n M. Hyndman, writer on eco
Monies, and DR.. Edward Aveling are promi-
nent membera
In the elections of November, 1885, Burns
stood as parliamentary candidate for the
western division Of Nottingham, but was
defeated. He was not generally known,
however, and recognized as public
character by the press Of London prior
to the Trafalgar square and Hyde
park meetings Of unemployed workingmen
which took place early In 1885. He was
chairman Of the meeting held in Trafalgar
square on Feb. Of that year. Over 10000
persons were present, and addresses were
made by H. Fl. Champion, II. M. Hyndman,
John E. Williams, Burns and others, of the
Democratic federation. A large force Of
policemen, under charge of Superintendent
Dunlap, were In attendance, but the crowd
was orderly and the meeting was not inter
fered with
Near the close Of the speaking gang Of
roughs attempted to create disturbance
and Burns, after consulting with Superin
tendent Dunlap, adjourned the meeting to
Hyde park, he and Champion marching at
the head Of the monster procession that head
ed for that place. Every thing went smoothly
until the procession was passing the Carlton
club in the West End The windows of the
club house were filed with men, who very
foolishly laughed and jeered at the thromg,

That the rind or skin of all fruit is
more or less indigestible, is a fact that
should not be forgotten. We say all
stood to include the pellicle of kernels
and nuts of all kinds. The edible part of
fruit is peculiarly delicate and liable to
rapid decomposition if exposed to the at
ion of nature to place strong and i'm
pervious coating over it, as protection
against accident and to keep insect enc
mics from the seed within. The skin of
plums is wonderfully strong compared
with its thickness, and RESTS the acton of
water and many solvents in remarka-
BILE manner. If not thoroughly mastic-
ated before being taken into the stomach,
this skin is rarely, if ever, dissolved by
the gastric juice. In some cases pieces
of it adhere to the coat of the stomach as
wet paper clings to bodies, causing more
or less disturbance or Inconvenience.
Raisins and dried currants are particu-
larly troublesome in this way, and, if
not chopped up before cooking, should
be thoroughly chewed before swallow
ing. If a dried currant passes into the
stomach whole, it is never digested at
all In the feeding of domestic animals
this fact should be kept in mind. If
grain and leguminous seeds are not crush
ed or ground, much Of the food is often

Father Junipero taught Gabriel with other
Indians the art of cutting and laying stone
In the years of TN and TIA, and Gabriel
took part In the construction Of the chapel
on the site of the present Carmelite mission,
below Monterey. In 17S1 he helped lay the
walls Of the San Antonio mission, which
still stands He was then living with his
second wife. He still speaks with pride Of his
skill as a stone mason.
Another proof brought forward of "Old
Gabriel's" age is the testimony Of Father
Sorrentini and Bishop Amat, who reached
Monterey in 1915. He was then married to
his sixth wife, and was by many years the
senior OF all the old inhabitants He was
then spoken Of as being ITO years old
A widely known old lady Of the name Of
Castro, who died five years ago at the age Of
95, in testifying to Old Gabriels age said
that when child she saw Old Gabriel, and
that at that time he had children several
years older than she then was
Gabriel remained at Old Capitol until a
few years ago, when he removed to Salinas
valley, where he has been sojourning ever
since. Down to within two or three years he
was familiar figure on the streets Of Sail
mas City, but now he Is rarely seen, as his
trips from the hospital to the town are be-
coming less frequent. He has always been
fond Of striking colors, and for years wore a
coat made Of cloth representing all the colors
of the rainbow.

A CUP OF COFFEE.

Probably there is no article of such
universal consumption which is so much
abused In the making as coffee, unless
indeed it is bread. Few know the espec-
ial qualities of the various brands of the
berry, but it is worth while for the
housekeeper to make herself familiar
with the properties of each. Miss Parloa
thus classifies coffees: "There are two
kinds of coflee-the strong and the mild.
TO the first class belong the Rio and the
Santos; and to the second, the Java,
Mocha, Maracaibo and, indeed, almost
all the other kinds. When rich. smooth
beverage is desired, combination OF
Mocha and Jaya-or some coffee that has
the qualities of Java-should be used:
but when strong flavor is liked, Rio or
Santos should be taken. The supply of
Java meets only about one-fifth of the
demand. For this reason many other
mild cofiees are sold under the name of
Java Good Maracaibo is equal to Java,
and is constantly sold under that name.
A combination of one pound Mocha, one
pound Rio, and two pounds Java or
Maracaibo will give rich, strong
favored drink, but not so smooth as if
the Rio was omitted. When buying the
berry, pause for a moment to think how
you like your beverage. Do you want it
smooth and of delicate flavor? Take one
third Mocha and the rest Java or Mara
caibo. Do you want it strong? Use all
Rio, or temper that brand by combining
it with some one of the mild kinds
knowing these properties of the various
brands, it is easy to make cup of coffee
which shall suit ones family and be of
uniform excellence day after day. To
each cupful of ground coffee allow one
quart of water-and do not guess at it:
measure it. Do not grind the coffee too
fine. If you have one Of the arrange
ments for making filtered coffee, you can
save eggs; if not, part or the whole of
an egg seems almost Indispensable to
settle and make it smooth and rich. Stir
the egg into the coffee, add boiling water
in the ratio of quart to cupful of cof-
down, and let the contents simmer for
five or ten minutes. Add gill of cold
water, let stand five minutes on the side
of the stove or heater, or where it cannot
boil, then tbs ready to serve. a strong, rich
Infusion, agreeable to the palate and
without the rank taste common to that
which has been boiled too long.
The whole process of cofee-making,
from the ground coffee to the table, need
not occupy more than fifteen minutes.
Yet many housekeepers let it boil half an
hour or even more; Others let it 'steep"
while they get breakfast, an indefinite
process which may take anywhere from
an hour to half that time. The coffee is
never twice alike, and the maker never
knows why it is good one morning and
bad the next There is no need of hav-
ing muddy, weak or insipid coffee, if we
will but follow these simple Instructions.

He Gained the Audience.

Mrs. Jeffreys-Lewis has probably had
more varied professional career than any
other actress of her age in this country.
She has played from ono end of the United
States to the other, even penetrating to the
wild regions of Alaska.
Her experiences In consequence have been
sometimes very amusing. In one wild, far
away settlement, where she played for one
night only, the settlers were so wrought up
by the thought of the forthcoming show that
they turned the day into holiday and ceased
all work. When the doors of the hall were
opened the inhabitants marched in hugging
bags of peanuts, candy and other holiday ed
ibles.
Upon Mrs. Jeffreys-Lewis' entrance in the
first scene she was saluted by the rattle and
cracking of peanuts and a vigorous conver-
tional buzz.
Mrs. Lewis stopped the scene and walked
to the row of candles which formed the foot
lights.
Her speech was brief but vigorous. She
promised the audience that when they had
finished their dessert and told all their: stories
the performance would go on. Meanwhile
she was perfectly willing to wait.
Her defiant tone gained her the immediate
respect of the audience, and there were cries
of Bully for you, old gal," and "We1l see
you through" but a profound and lasting
quietus was given the entire house when
