BIG DEAL IN GAS.
St. Paul Parties Interested in q
Big Seattle Plant.


Judge H. q. Strive, of Seattle, one of
the pioneers of the state of Washington,
has been Ryan guest for the past
week. His trip to st. Paul was in the
interest of deal of more than ordinary
Importance, involving change in the
ownership of the Seattle Gas and Elec-
trio company. which has been purchased
by syndicate composed of the follow
ing gentlemen: Mr.. McMicken, of
Seattle; r. G. Elliott and G.. NJ. Nelson,
of st. Paul. and John Mather, of West
Superior, Wis. The property is val
liable one, and it is said that the price
paid by the new owners was round
million dollars.
In conversation with Judge Strive it
structed by Seattle capital, has been in
successful operation for number of
years, and was owned entirely by local
parties. The growth of the city has
been rapid, and to meet the require
ments of business the purchasers of the
property contemplate extensive i'm
provements. The judge says there is
10 one thing affecting the material well
fare of the commonwealth of Wash
ington to which the people of
the state attach so much impor-
lance at present as the cOnStruc-
ton of the Great Northern road
and that the citizens of Seattle espe-
cially will give it warm welcome.
Seattle now claims population of Co.
600. In regard to the new city of
Everett. about which SO much has
been heard lately and which is about
forty miles north of Seattle, the Judge
Strive said that it was now admitted
that the Great Northern would reach
salt water at that point, and that he
thought Everett would develop into a
manufacturing point of considerable
Importance. .-.,-,..,-- .--..

changes it is proposed to do away with

to place it wholly within

Another proposed change is in the death

Then multiply that number by the

children are i'll the way, in public, and
everybody looks daggerS at the woman

IF CREDITORS AGREE,

Commercial Bank In
solvency,
Discharge the Assignee and
Permit the Doors to Be
Reopened.
Weihe Accepts, and Erwin
May Defend Homestead
Strikers.
Sixth Annual Convention of
Brotherhood of Machine
MOulderS.

An application was made to Judge
William Louis Kelly in chambers yes
terday which has for its object the re-
facilitating of the Commercial bank
with the necessary rights to again open
its doors for the purpose of carrying on
a general banking business. The APP
plication is in the nature of petition,
signed by Albert Scheffer as president
of the bank. The legal papers were
drawn up by the law firm of G. d. and
Thomas ID. O'Brien. The petition
makes a gratifying showing OF the
financial condition of the institution
which closed its doors few months
ago. After reading the petition and
hearing the statements made by inter-
ested parties, Judge Kelly issued an
order as preliminary step to reinstat-
ing the bank. This order, among other
things, recites the following facts:
Whereas, 1t appears, upon examination of
tile affairs of the bank and on consideration
of them by the directors, the stockholders
and large majority of the creditors in both
number and amount it was discovered that
insolvency proceedings should be dis
the Commercial bank, and that it
should resume the business Of banking;
II diSO appearing tIlat the llaUllitleS at the
time of the assignment were about S945,5l
consisting of sums due depositors on open
account of certificates on deposits, moneys
due other banks, cashiers checks and re-
discounts. The value of the assets of the
bank then amounted to about S1.235. SIS. An
agreement was reached. which has been
carried out by which there has
been S250000 subscribed to the stock.
1t has been agreed by about 700
of the creditors owning S3SJ,001 in claims to
allow the bank to carry this Indebtedness.
Under the arrangements mentioned above
the Indebtedness has been reduced from
S949, 514 to S460574, the assignee now having
about Si70.0G0 in money, making $4,000 III
the hands of the BANK In addition to the
above funds. the assets are about SslO09o
600, leaving the total indebted
ness about S6a000o and the assets
over the liabilities amount to S591.0O0. II
also appearing that the bank can manage the
affairs to a better advantage than the as
signee, and thus avoid loss TO the bank, the
stockholders and creditors; it is therefore
ordered that Frank:A. seymour. the assignee,
and all the creditors of the Commercial bank
who have filed the claims and all other parties
in interest, appear before Judg William Louis
Kelly, judge of the district court, at his cham
bers i'll the court house. Aug. 70, at 10 q. M,

to be allowed to resume should not be grant

"Whar Am She?n

The latest story regarding the New
York Cenlrals Empire State Express
was told at the Albany Press club few
nights ago. Three colored men en-
ployed in one of the large brick yards
on the Hudson river had never seen the
famous train pass, as before they could
get in position to see it go by it would
be gone, and all that was visible was a
glimpse of the rear signal flags. One
day recently they arranged to stand one
at the north end of the yard, another at
the south end. and one in the middle,
and as the train approached each would
notify the other, so as to secure good
look at her at the appointed time. The
train appeared in sight a few seconds
later. The man at the south end called
out, Here she comes;" the one at the
north end. There she goes" and the
one in the middle cried: "Whar am
he"'-Albany Evening Journal, July

A NOVELTY.
Water and MuskmeIOn Seeds Dec
Oratiyely Used.

OFstSsSciy CScu.
The greatest novelty we have OBJ
served in all the summer fancy work
that has been daily brought to our no
tice consists in embroidery in which the
seeds of the water and muskmeIon are
made to do duty, and are really as pretty
as they are unique. Little silk bags
are used to hold the dried particles,
and it is really amusing to watch the
girls at breakfast or luncheon carefully
laying aside all the seeds that come in
with the useful, as well as ornamental,
ediOleS that have sprung into sudden
popularity, owing to the latest fancy
work fad, and have produced a corner
in melons that the hotelkeepers find
hard to cope with, says the Philadelphia
Times. The method employed in this
effective embroidery is TO trace design
OH the foundation material, which may
be anything one fancieS.
The seeds are fastened in place with
sewing silk with stitch at either end,
and the heavier embroidery done in silks
or creweS. Ears of wheat are wonder
fully pretty done in muskmelon seeds,
with the stems in cross stitch. DaiseS
also look well with the centers either
darned or iii French knots. Anything
that has sharp pointed leaves always
works effectively with these little oval
seeds. and those of the watermelon are
quite snowy when combined with
deep maize silk. Little purses
OF steel beads and seed are
easy to make and make dainty gifts
when the season of presents comes
around once more. A combination of
water and muSkmelOn seeds with pome-
granate silk on heavy white linen makes
an elaborate design that is especially
pretty on library tables. Fashions
change, but the seed embroidery, like
the whaleback coat, is only revival of
the sort of work INDUCED in by the
ladies of a quarter of a century ago.

this seif-rossession is invaluable. In a

upset the domestic machinery are con-
stahtly occurring. 1t seems TO be law
OF nature that children should coRtinu-

within an inch of losing their lives. But
1t is equally law of nature that they

Is 10 lose her head.
10 do that means to be helpless in

an assistance. In an emergency one
should rather seem heartlesS than inef-

stands cOOlly by and sees the Way TO

often best proved by ignoring them,
particularly when the moment arrives
that calls for action and not tears.

USEE I'll RECIPES.
EeascnabEe and Paiatable Pickles
and Preserves.

anu preserves.
Now is the time when fruits are
cheapest, and every housekeeper who
thinks OF winter, is quitting up'' and
preserving and canning. Jellles, pick
les and preserves are to be had in mar
ket. to be sure, but they are very eX-
penslve, and are not always well made
by any means. Sometimes home
made is SO delicious on the
winter lunch table, or to tempt
the appetite of an invalid, that it seems
strange that city women who can buy
fruit at so low price, do not can more
than they do. But for those busy bees
who do preserve the good things of
summer for winters dearth, Harper's
BaZar publishes some excellent recipes.
Those for preserving cucumbers and
tomatoes are especially good, and here
they are:
Cucumber Pickle-lf the cucumbers
are large. slice them in pieces an inch
thick, and pack them in a Jar-layer of
fruit and layer of SEASONING To 2
gallons of cucumberS allow pounds of
Sugar-unleSS you prefer genuinely
sour pickle, when the sweeteming NAV
be omitted-2 ounces of allspice. 2
ounces of cloves. 3 ounces of nutmegs,
ounces of mace, ounces
of celery seed. ounces of black
pepper, l quart of onions peeled
and sliced. When the jar is nearly
ull, pour in enough cider vinegar TO
cover the cucunberS. Set the jar in
kettle of water, and let the pickle cook
long enough for the cucumbers to he
well done. To test this, see whether
you can stick straw through the fruit.
This pickle is ready for use at once.
TIE up securely and it will keep well.
Tomato Catsup-Take 3 cans Quart
size of best tomatoes, and put them
into Il porcelain or bell-metal kettle with
l pound of brown sugar, pint of vim
egar, tablespoonful of ground black
pepper, tablespoonful of salt, onions
chopped very fine, a spoonful of
celery seed bruised, and a tcaspoonful
of powdered cloves. Boil for three
hours very slowly, then strain through
a fine sieve, bottle, and it is ready for
use
Tomato Figs.-To eight pounds or one
peck of small tomatoes put three pounds
of brown sugar. Peel them and let
them scald until the sugar penetrateS
them and they look clear, but are not
broken. Take them out OF the syrup
with a ladle, and spread them Oh dishes
to dry. The next morning tlatten them
with a spoon, and add some of the
syrup to them. Do this until all the
syrup has been consumed and the toma-
toes are thoroughly well dried. Then
pack them in jar or box, thus: one
layer of tomatoes, then layer of gran
uiated sugar, until the receptacle is
full. Cover closely and lay weight on
them. With some persons this is
favOrIte conserve.
