FITS THE ELMoRE MIDDLE.

Anthony Brooks, chairman of the
old Board of Commissioners of
Owyhee county, on the 3Oth of De
cember last addressed letter Of in +
quiry TO Attorney General Roberts /
and received the following reply,
dated, "Ofice of Attorney General,
Boise City, Jan. 4, 1891" 1t proves
most emphatically that the rump
board and rump ex-deputy clerk at
Mt. Home last Monday acted with
shadow of law. Commissioner
Davis was the only one who seemed
TO thoroughly comprehend the law.
and is regretted that Commissioner
Stockton did not appear here on the
| 10Th and he and Nelse Davis pro-
coed to legislate for the county, as
was done in 0wyhee. Here is the
Attorney Generals construction of
the law:
NY Dear Mr.. Brooks:-1ours OF
December 80, received.
This office has heretofore decided
that failure to qualify under the
provisions Of section II, article p,

that where schedule to Cons.i-
tuition provided for the performance

lar time, and was silent as to the
performance at any other time, such
act could not be performed at any
other time, and that such provision
of the schedule has all the force OF
Constitutional provision, was man
} datory, and must be construed ac-
cordingly.

2 ton: First-If the person elected as

The report of the Commissioner of Ag.
ricultural and Manufacturing Interests Of
the State of Vermont to the Legislature
has just been issued. The report gives
many figures of great interest on the sub.
ject of the deserted farms in the State.
These tables show that 500, 900 acres, or
about ten per cent. of the arabic acreage
OF the State is either not cultivated at all
or only partially cultivated and could be
bought some months ago for from 50 to
S5 an acre. The Commissioner admits
that portions of the abandoned lands arc
rocky, badly located, and in some in
stances worn out. But the greater
amount is not worn out and can be made
as fruitful rs lands near by, which are
successfully cultivated.

The Lancet has come to the conclusion
that the best way to secure tolerable
old age is to keep on doing something.
70 lie on your oars, without motion, after
your voyage upon lifc's ocean, is not the
way to keep afost longest: the question
of the desirability of keeping aaoat i,
another matter; but, physically speak.
ing. there is little doubt that the Lancet
is right. OF course, there ought to be
leisure, but not total idieness; the otiun
cum dig. means that little work, if not
with the spade, with something. should
be done. 1t is the round o that spells
UP with most of us; when the brain
ceases to be used it softens.

Cost Of Running European Steamers.

Reliable data concerning the cost of
running the fast European steamers have
hitherto been difficult to obtain. Some
statistics of the voyage OF the Normannia,
the magnificent addition to the Ha!hberc
American line, have been COLLECTED, and
as the figures apply practically to a run
of the City of Paris from New York to
Liverpool, they are interesting. When
the Normannia starts on an eastward
voyage she carries nearly 5000 tons of
coal in her bunkers, and it costs about
$3.50 ton. The stokers daily shovel
into her furnaces between $50 and 300
tons: The expenditure for coal approx
mates $1,000 day, or $4,000 for the
voyage, All expenses included, it may
be said that one trip of the Normannia
costs its owners not less than S25, 900.
The receipts from all classes of passen.
gers on good midsummer trip are over
$50, 900. Usually the Normannia carries
500 tons of freight, which, at the trans
portation rate of about SO a ton,
amounts to SS000.-Neu York Com.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS,

The best covering for a poultice or q
mustard paste is tissue paper.
"Buttered paper" always means in
recipes baking tin lined with heavily
creased white paper.
Isinglass in stoves can be made to look
as new by washing clean with lukewarm
water and wiping dry.
To clean willow furniture use salt and
water. Apply with a nail-brush, scrub
well and dry thoroughly.
To restore strong ham to its original
freshness, slice and soak over night in
milk, either sweet or sour.
1t is not generally known that tin
cleaned with newspapers will shine bet.
ter than when cleaned with flannel.
When wiping up the floor before put.
ting the carpet down, sprinkle it owe,
with salt while damp; this will greatly
prevent moths.
When cold water is craved (although
cold water really interferes with diges.
tion), it should be boiled and filtered
and cooled in bottles on ice.
The best way to cook Finnan haddie
is to put on broiler for ten minutes over
quick fire, and then put in boiling
water five minutes. Serve hot.
In purchasing canned goods it is safe
rule to observe whether the head of the
can is concave, bullying appearance be-
ing indicative of decomposition.
If the throat is very sore, wiring a
cloth out of cold salt and water. and
bind it on the throat tightly when gong
to bed; cover it with dry towel. This
is excellent.
A mans way of patching a hole in a
table cloth would probably be to sew on
piece; woman's way is to patch the
piece on with starch and then smooth it
with hot iron.
An excellent way of testing tea is to
put teaspoonful in glass Of water and
shake it thoroughly. If the tea is pure
the water will be pure amber tint, but
if adulturated strongly colored.

DAINTY DISH OF MARROW FAT.

A gentleman quite skilled in cookery
says that one of the most delicate and
daintiest of breakfast dishes may be
made of marrow fat. 1t is chopped and
boiled for one minute in sailed boiling
water, then drained and heated again
with tablespoonful of chopped parsley,
the juice of lemon, and seasoning Of
salt and pepper, while two Or three slices
OF delicate toast are made, upon which
the marrow is served. Or another way
is to mince it and quickly heat it, with
salt and pepper and enough cold gravy
to moisten it, and then serve it on toast.
Although marrow is twenty. five to thlr-
ty-five cents a pound, he considers it q
cheap breakfast, as he buys a long mar
row-bone which costs only ten cents. He
has the bone divided with the saw in
pieces two or three inches long, and
these in turn so split apart with the
cleaver as to permit the marrow to be
taken out in unbroken portions. This
marrow-bone contains about half
pound of marrow, and for this breakfast
dish of toast only half of that is needed.
After all the marrow has been extracted
that can be taken from the bone in good
sized pieces, there will still enough cling
to it to make soup. So out of ten
cent marrow-bone he gets two breakfast
dishes and at least one savory soup,
which he considers an economical
triumph for u man.-Nep York Neus.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
SERVING OLIVES.

Olives may be served at all times and
with most all dishes; in fact, they NAV
be placed on the table with the table de-.
corations and remain there until dinner
or lunch is over. One guest may pax
them to another. 1t is not necessary to
have the waiter pass them. They ara
usually passed at a dinner Immediately at.
ter the soup, but may be passed three or
four times, as the plates are being changed
for the dinner courses.-Ne7o York Prs.s

clio for the murder of her betrayer
several months ago. The Evening
Sun worked hard to secure her acquit-
tai, and to its efforts, perhaps, the
pretty little girl is free to-day. She
was deeply grateful to the paper, and
so, when fine boy baby was born to
her late Wednesday afternoon, she
called it the evening son. And with
that name it is sure to go through life
blessed with the best of luck.
Decoration day was celebrated here
with all honors. Over 10000 men
were in line and the torn battle flags
were cheered by the crowds that
thronged the line of March. / met a
veteran of Hunters raid that night
who said he knew John Deyore, Dick
Jenkins, Red Knob Brady and other
tried Frostburg heroes who took part
In that memorable foray. He received
a charge of salt from Southern
sympathizer who refused to furnish
poultry to the defenders of the Union
during the raid and still suffered from
the effects Of it. The veterans name
was Brockman, Tim Brockman.
In conclusion, he stated that any
member of the Home Brigade would
remember Sneaky Tim, the man who
stole the four hams from Hartz Bear
in '62. "a grateful country has not
forgotten him." he says. land he
wishes still to be remembered by
Presley N. G. Jenkins and Doggy More.
