lilies for culinary Purpose.

| In lecture to girls assemblage,
not long ago, Prof. Ames, of Columbia
College, said that in some parts of India
the lily is actually used as an article OF
diet 1t has been found by the bota-
nists to be a highly nutritious article of
food, being peculiarly rich in nitrogene-
GUS compounds. The poor Indian, who
evidently considers the lilies" from a
astronomical point of view, either eat
them as a vegetable or kneads them
with dough and makes them into cakes.
In either form they are declared to af-
ford most substantial and nourishing
tepast, and the aesthetics of ten years
ago, when accused of "living on lilies"
would certainly have been enabled to
return the laugh against their torment
ors If they had known the culinary at
tributes of their cherished flower.
Mark the result of the professors in

Gently given by an enterprising belle
stewed lilies were one OF the novel
dishes They tasted like an amalgam
of spinach and cabbage and were not
very dainty, but they are bound to have
vogue for awhile, anyhow. Chicago

Some men are so much in love with
themselves that they never see their
own mistakes. They display a sort of
heroism in the hopeless struggle to JUS
tify their own errors, and when their
faults are made so plain to them that a
confession is aYtorted from them, they
still manage to make some capital out
Of their infrmity by boasting that it
only proves that they are human. =

How sllioate of Soda i Obtain

This salt is obtained by fusing one
part of silica and two Of dry carbonate
of soda, mixed in powder, in an earthen-
ware crucible, and pouring the fused
mass on Stone slab to cool This is
then pnlyerized and treated with boil
ing water to dissolve the soluble part.
The solution is filtered aQd concentrated
by boiling SO as to faCn crystals on
pooling These are again purified by
dissolying them in tepid water, tiltering
the solution and boiling, that it may re-
crystalize. This form of soda is some
times used in fine laundry work.

Letter from Richmond.

Correspondence of the ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE.
RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 12-It didn't take
the Senate committee on general laws long
to come to a decision in regard to the bill
to provide against danger from electric
currents. One of the lawyers who appear
ed before the committee very strongly pre-
sented this point, and the members of the
committee made up their minds last
night that the whole matter was one
which municipalities should look after and
not the Commonwealth.
Senator Peters, of Campbell. gained q
little more notoriety In the House TO day by
introducing resolution to have secret
session OF the House to morrow. Ee did
not say what he wanted the House to con-
sider but 1t is supposed that 1t Is the cleo.
ton laws, as the democratic caucus ham.
mered away on this subject awhile at their
meeting last night. just what the House
can accomplish in secret session nobody can
imagine and the proposition OF MIR. Peters
is considered very foolish one.
1t Ia not known what the House will do
with the Pan American Railway bill. The
measure having passed the Senate to-day
will be communicated to the House tenor
row. and that body will be asked to act up
Oh it right away.
Mr.. II. G. Parsons, who was interested In
the construction of the Richmond and Allie
ghany road and who is warm friend of
Secretary Blaine, is championing the bill
through the legislature. He succeeded ad.
mirably as far as the Senate is concerned
and anticipates no trouble from the House.
The General Assembly will have to do
some tall hustlipg to get through all the
measures that are now pending. The main
work ia vet to be done. When l say main
work l mean that of most interest to the
State.
Senator Mills. who has just returned from
Florida, is much improved in health. he
has received warm congratulations and
greetings from his fellow Senators.
Perhaps the only judge that will be az
fected by the passage of the bill introduced
in the House to-day to retire judges over 80
years of age will be Judge Jeffries, of the
King and Queen circuit. 1t Is said that he
is at least so. II the bill ia not passed soon
it will not be of any benefit to Judge Jeffries,
as that honored jurist is not expected to live
much longer, observed citizen at the Cap
toI to-day. B. 7. 0.

THE MARY WASHINGTON TOME SUIT
letter from fredericksburg to the Rich
mond Times says; In the Mary Washing.
ton monument suit, Colbert and Kirtley
against Shepherd, counsel on Tuesday COZ
pleted the bill of exceptions. preparatory to
taking the case up. The attorneys for the
plaiatiff are Colonel Robert Washington, a.
II. Dickinson and Capt. Geo. A. Mushbach,
and Messrs. Marye and Fitzhugh for the
defendant. Much comment is beiog made
over the position of Col. Washington as to
his statement to Mr. st. George B. Fiiznugh
that he Washington would like to get out
of the case honcrably, if he could do so, and
that Mr.. Filzhugh advised him to give his
fee back to Colbert & KirtIey and withdraw
from the case Mr.. Washington denounced
the report as UNANIMOUSLY false. Mr. Tur.
ner, who stated he heard Mr.. Filzhugh
make that statement, has signed paper al.
leging the truth of what he stated, and
that several other gentlemen heard the
statement as made By Mr.. Fizhugh. Great
interest is taken in the matter and serious
difficulty is expected to follow between the
gentlemen In dispute.

The GRAND JURY of Psnobscot county
Maine, after weeks session, has refused
to bring in any indictment against the
saloon keepers OF Bangor. The prohibitory
liquor law of Maine runs counter to the
popular feeling In that State, and therefore
and only naturally, cannot be enforced. But
the republican congressman from Maine in.
sst that laws that are not only objectiona
BILE, but in the highest degree obnoxious, tc
all the white people in the South. shall be
enforced upon those people, and are sur
prised that there should be any opposl

that 1t is just as impossible to execute ur
