millionaire Blythe,s wild Hogs


Roaming over the lands of the Lerdo
colony, seventy miles south of Yuma, are
droves of wild hogs, variously estimated
at from one to three thousand in number.
They are descendants of tame hogs placed
on the ranch when Thomas 81. Blythe was
part owner, about thirteen years ago. At
ter Blythe's decease and subsequent rever-
sion of his interest to General Andrade
the hogs were turned loose and allowed to
go at will over the rich bottom lands of
the Colorado river. A few generations
transformed them into savage beasts, who
would attrck and eat . man if they had
the opportunity. They subsist chiefly on
the wild potato, tuber which grows the
size of a walnut and in great profusion.
The present owner of Lerdo, General An
drade, conceived the idea of having the
hogs caught, and the meat cured for the
use of the colonists
Operations were begun about year ago,
and though not conducted on large scale
have proved successful The hogs are
caught in a circular corral about thirty
feet in diameter, having a trap door.
Plenty of bait in the shape of corn and
potatoes is scattered about the entrance
and also buried in the canal. A band of
hogs are attacted by the bait, enter the
corral, commence roofing for the buried
corn and potatoes, and when the right
spot is struck by them the trap door falls
and they are prisoners The hogs are fed
awhile before slaughtering. Their meat is
! of fine quality and the lard sweet and de-
Ecious

Our One oId-worId Conquest.


The only town in the old world ever
captured by the United states is the town
of Derne, in Tripoli, on the north coast of
Africa. The inhabitants were chiefly
Moors, Turks and Arabs of the Mohamme-
dan religion. The ports of the Barbary
States-Algiers, Morocco, Tunis and Trip
oli-were infested with pirates, who dart
ed out upon vessels which sailed up and
down the Mediterranean sea, and, after
plundering them, either murdered the
crew or sold them into slavery. These pi-
rates became the terror of Europe, and
some mercantile countries had TO pay
yearly tribute in order to secure safety for
their vessels.
England was the only nation feared by
these pirates, and SO long as American yes
sells sailed under the British flag they were
reasonably secure, but when the United
States became separate nation the pirates
demanded tribute
For time the government paid the tn
butte as the easiest way to secure her com
merce, but in 1901 the Bey of Tripoli grew
so bold as to declare war against the Uni
ted states, being dissatisfied with the pay
ment of the tributes.
For four years a series of fights took
place, until, in 1904, the American navy
having been increased in the Mediterrane-
an sea, vigorous attack was made upon
the pirates. General Eaton succeeded in
taking Derne, one of their ports, and
raised the American flag over it. This
was the first and last time our flag was
unfurled in victory over a foreign town.
A treaty of peace was made, prisoners
were exchanged, and piracy for time
came to an end.

THE ROYAL ARK,S VOYAGE.

THE ROYAL ARK,s VOYAGE.
Why the Royal Ark did not bear those
who intrusted themselves to it safely over
the troubled seas is limited at in COM
plant made in Massachusetts court. 1t
is claimed that assessments have been
unlawfully and fraudulently levied and
used for salaries when the order had per
capita tax. These assessments, it is coll
tended, should have been held in trust to
meet the obligations of the corporation.
The plaintiffs furthermore allege that the
corporation, according to its returns to
the insurance commissioners, had total
income of $299, ,799.73, of which sum it
disbursed $3.50 for sickness and disa-
bility claims, nothing for matured certifi-
Gates, $94, ,456.61 for salaries and other
expenses, and had on hand in its expense
fund on December 81, 1890, $43, ,952. 30.
The plaintiffs say that in total amount
of income of $299, 799.7S, $143,40S.93 was
set apart as an expense fund, all of which
they contend was unreasonable, contrary
to law and equity, and in fraud of the
members and certificate holders. A larger
sum, the plaintiffs say, than was reason
able, has been expended by the order for
expenses. An allegation was made by the
plaintiffs that the order had repeatedly
levied assessments to meet maturing en-
dowment certificates and had not carried
the amount received and applied it to the
payment of the certificates or the reserve
fund.
And 80 forth and 80 on. If the Royal

THE WORKHOUSE SCHEME.


1t having been thought by some philan-
thropic and energetic people that New
Haven needs workhouse an appropria-
ton of $25, 900 to give us one was made at
town meeting. Now it has been dis
covered that $4,000 isn't enough and
another town meeting is to be held to day,
at which the friends of the scheme hope
that enough money will be appropriated.
Some opposition to the scheme is mani
Testing itself, and if the matter isn't set
tied to-day there will be more, and there
may be if it is. Some inquisi-
tive persons are asking what New
Haven wants of workhouse when
it has Jail and an almshouse. tbs urged,
and with much force, that the Jail will
furnish all the workhouse facilities that
will be needed for years to come, and we
are asked if it is not folly to set up another
workhouse at great expense. 1t is also
pointed out that if New Haven prisoners
are taken from the jail the workshop there
can not be run except at a loss and will
have to be closed and the remaining pris-
oners supported in idleness and New Ha-
ven, while running separate Jail and
workhouse at large loss, must continue to
pay her share of the expense of the present
Jail.
This is well worth thinking of. But
there is another side to the story. If taxes
in New Haven continue to increase we may
need another workhouse to go to and work
them out.

sorb 1t. As soon as they become brown
skim them out. If cooked too long they
may burst open.
Within few years physicians are pre-
scribing crisped bacon for dyspeptics.
Prepared as directed by them 1t makes a
savory and appetiZing entree for breakfast.
It should be cut extremely thin, the rind
trimmed.off, then fried crisp and brown.
1t must be watched carefully and will re-
quire constant turning to prevent its
scorching. Another and newer method of
serving is to arrange these shsvings of ba-
con upon half slices of bread, lay them in
a pan and set them in the oven until
brown. When ready to serve arrange
them upon platter and garnish with wa
tercress and slices of lemon.
No vegetable, unless possibly we may ex-
cept the potato, is capable of being served
attractively in SO great a variety of ways
at breakfast as the tomato. One of the
most unusual ways is to fry them, and it
is certainly one of the best also. Choose
round, smooth tomatoes; wipe carefully
and remove the cores, but do not pare
them. Slice in two, crosswise, and season
well with pepper and salt. Butter may be
used for frying them, but pork fat or ba-
con fat is preferable. Lay them in the
spider, cut side downward, and when they
have Drowned turn them carefully.
auOkuCI way OF COOKING
them is with sweetbreads. Slice some
parboiled sweetbreads and fry to a golden
brown in butter or dripping. Pare the
tomatoes and cut in small pieces. When
the sweetbreads are brown remove them,
and cook the tomatoes in the butter in
which they were fried. Stir often and let
| them cook to pieces. Season well with
salt, pepper and pinch of cloves. When
they have cooked to q smooth consistency
stir in spoonful of butter rolled in -four.
Drop the sweetbreads into the tomatoes,
allow them to boil up once and serve.
Tomatoes stuffed and roasted are very
| nice. Mince little lamb or veal very fine
and season highly. Wipe the tomatoes,
remove the cores and part of the seeds;
then fill the cavities with the meat. Law
| a bit of butter on the top of each, place
them in dripping pan with a little butter
and roast in hot oven about forty min
utes, or till cooked through. Use the but
| ter In the pan to baste them occasionally,
| and pour 1t over them when ready TO
| serve.
For the finishing touch to a summer
| breakfast nothing could be more delicious
than fried bananas. Choose fine, ripe
| fruit, draw off the skins and cut each ba-
mana in two crosswise. Salt them lightly,
| dip each in beaten egg and then roll in
cracker crumbs. Cook till a delicious
brown in deep, boiling fat. Serve with a
rich fruit sauce made of one cupful boil

THROUGH DEATH VALLEY.
Exploration of q Strange and 1orbid-
ding Region.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.l
Doctor G. Hart Merriam, scientist and
chief of the Government Biological Survey
which has been working for months in
Death Valley, is in the city. Doctor Mer-
riam has studied closely the strange region
of which SO much has been said, and be is
the first in the city qualified to speak of
the valley. He has camped within the
glare of its salt beds, has felt its intolerable
heat, and viewed its splendid desolation,
and has faced the sec fching blasts of wind
and red-hot sand that rage between the
black mountains which wall the silent
chasm. He has been in the midst of its
death dealing elements, has tasted of its
poisoned wells and has forced his way
over its treacherous sands, and over ground
that crumbled beneath the weight of man
OF horse. He told the story of his adven-
lures last night.
"The valley and its towering black walls
of barren rock" he said, 'sare weird and
strangely sublime in their desolation. For
miles and miles the curious mountains may
be seen outlined against the clear sky.
From the top of Telescope peak, the high
est of the Panamint or western range which
shuts the valley in, one may look down a
dizzy black precipice 1900 feet to the
level of the valley as dazzling white as
snow. Stretching from the mountains
foot are the glistening fields of salt. Here
and there are running streams of salt and
| mineral waters. To drink of them is to
die. The view closes in the gloomy cliffs
| of the Funeral mountains, which form an
impenetrable barrier at the east of the
canon. The scene is one of violent con-
trasts, of glaring whites and dead blacks.
"The valley is the most barren and the
lowest of a series in Eastern California and
southwestern Nevada. At a rough esti-
| mate it is about $50 feet below the level of
| the sea. 1t runs generally north and south,
| although its worst region turns to the
| northwest. This portion has been named
Mesquite valley. 1t is region far worse
than Death valley proper. The valley may
be compared to the Grand canon of the
| Colorado. 1t is rather an immense chasm
than a valley. 1t is about 140 miles long,
and at its broadest part is only eighteen
miles wide. In some parts it is no more
| than fifteen miles in width. In this fright
/ full place, baked and blistered by the intol-
cradle heat, holding within itself innum-
cradle elements of death, revealing strange
aspects of natural desolation, our party has
been at work for months.
"On either side of the valley, stretching
almost its entire length, is a range o.
mountains, absolutely barren of anima
