RECIPROCITY,

hEC1FhOC1IHs E
Mr.. Blaine's reciprocity plan is rapidly
growing in favor, and it is warmly sup
ported by many prominent South Ameri-
cans. Thus, Mr.. Antonio Guimaraes, q
Brazilian gentleman, says: .'My country
has a population of $4,000, 900 people,
while Cuba has only population of
1900, 900, and the consumption in Brazil
of such produce and manufactures as the
United States could supply would be very
large indeed For example, we import
s21 200, 900 worth of cotton goods per an
mum. By reduction of duty most of
these goods would be taken from the
United States, and the importation of -four
and other provisions, which the United
States already ship in considerable quanti-
ties to Brazil, would be very largely in
creased under the stimulous of q prefer
ence in the matter of duties. At present
the United States purchases of our
produce $40, ,O0O, 900 while we in re-
turn only buy sS,00O,OO0. The
balance against the United States
has been remitted in gold or its equivalent
to Europe to pay for the merchandise that
we buy from them. Under reciprocity the
United States would increase at the same
time the exports to Brazil.
Now is an unusually favorable time to
talk reciprocity with Brazil. Brazilians
are descendants of Portuguese, and ths
recent attitude of England toward Portu
gal and the trouble between the two coun
tries is warmly resented by Brazilians
English goods are, therefore, in disfavor
and if the people can buy other goods the.
will not take them. The recent govern
mental disturbance in Brazil may put of
the present possibility of any sure arrange
ment of reciprocal trade, but no govern
ment is likely to organize in Brazil un
favorable to it.

CENTRAL AFRICAN COOKERY.
Queer and Palatable Dishes Eaten
without Much Ceremony.

Queer and Palatabley Dishes Eaten
without Much Ceremony.
AS rule only one principal meal is eat
en- in central Africa, in the early part of
the evening. 1t usually consists of parrot
soup, roasted or stewed monkeys, alligator
eggs (also well liked by Europeans) and
birds of every description. They also
have moambo, or palm chops, and fish,
A great delicacy, SO considered by Euro
peans and natives alike, is elephants feet
and trunk. These have somewhat the
tives dig hole about five feet deep in the
sand and in it build large fire. After
the sand is thoroughly heated the fire is
removed, leaving only the ashes in the
hole. The trunk and feet are placed in
this hole and covered with leaves, and af-
forwards with hot sand. In two hours
they are done.
All carcasses of animals which are to be
cooked are placed on block of wood and
pounded until every bone is broken, care
being taken not to tear or bruise the skin.
They are then boiled or roasted on an
open wood fire or in hot sand or ashes,
without removing the hide or feathers.
The cooking is of very inferior grade,
the only spices used being salt and pepper.
| The kitchen utensils consist of common
earthen or wooden ware. Very little time
| is taken for setting or decorating the ta-
BILE; knives, forks and napkins are dis
pensed with.
| Africans have several vegetables well
liked by Europeans. N'gutti-n'sengo is a
| dish eaten all over Africa. 1t consists of
| egg plant, small fish somewhat like our
| sardines and the roots of the cassava or
menioca plant Called n'gutti), which have
a knotty appearance and often weigh as
| much as twenty pounds.
As the latter contains poison, the mani
oca is soaked in water for three to four
days to extract the poisonous substance.
| 1t is then cut and sliced and small toma-
toes are added. ALI is placed in vessel
with water and seasoned with salt and
pepper and boiled. Moambo, or, as the
Europeans call it, palm chops, is also O
favorite dish. The palm nuts are first
boiled in water until the pulpy substance
loosens from the pit, then the shell, which
contains very delicious oil, is placed in 6
wooden mortar and crushed to obtain the

The Vssara Tunturi is not a separate
mountain, but one of the peaks of the IA
nous Dundret mountain at Gelivara,
north Sweden. The laplanders, however,
give every peak separate name, and the
vasara is, next to the Muoratjakko and
the Jauri Kirtjakko, the highest of the
Dundret peaks, having the additional ad-
vantage of being easier to ascend than
most of its fellows. The vasara Tunturi
has already obtained widespread reputa-
ton for the splendid view it affords, and

scape of forests, rivers, and mountains,

TWENTY DUNKARDS WITH AMIR.
Telegrapher's Blunder that startled
and Mystifled n Station Agent.

NdSuNlAic AnlcIiSeaiAl
Last year a party of twenty five Dun
kards was en- route to the general confer
ence, via st. Louis. No agent accom-
panied them, and telegram was sent to
ULion Depot Passenger Agent Bonner to
'meet twenty Dunkards."
The religious education of the telegraph
operator who received the message had
been neglected. He had never heard of
the Dunkards, and, supposing mistake
had been made, he just inserted the letter
''r," and when Bonner received the mess
age it read ''Meet No. f. Twenty drunk
ards aboard Look after them
Bonner was somewhat taken aback. He
did not know but that an inebriate asylum
had broken loose, but any way prompt ac-
ton was necessary. The twenty drunk
ards must be desperate men or the dis
patch would not have been sent and muir
der might have been committed on the
road.
Bonner posted off to police headquarters
and his story did not lose in the telling
The chief of police, alive to the exigences
of the situation, made q special detail of
ten policemen and patrol wagon.
The policemen were drawn up in line
at the depot, and intense excitement pre-
vailed among the numerous depot loung-
ers, a rumor having gained currency that
desperate band of train robbers was on
the incoming train.
In due time the train arrived, but no
party of registering drunkards alighted.
The party on the train was composed of
several pious-looking gentlemen with
broad -brimmed hats, who stood around as
though expecting some one.
Bonner approached one of them and said
interrogatively;
Had any trouble ON the roadf'
