is a very clever collection OF shOrt stories
by MARY E. wilkins, published in dainty
covers Of blue and gold by Harper and
Brothers for =. .25. There are twenty-four
of these stories in which she sketches New

tiers are drawn with bold but kindly hand
always showing a knowledge OF, and sym
pathy with the humble life sac portrays.
She evidently writes lelsureiy, giving close
attention to details and environments,
.but is never tedious and has the power to
make her readers see whatever her pen de-
scribes. Her Yankee dialect is never often
sively used but serves to give a pleasant

A Neglected Opportunity.

The Nichols Brothers who conduct
the grocery business in Rising Sun re.
ceive weekly from Baltimore large
quantities of vegetables-cabbage,
cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, etc.
This seems very remarkable, with
thousands of acres of farm land in a
high state of cultivation and not
enough of the most common vegetables
in the hight of their season to supply
the demand at the very doors of the
farm houses. What does such neglect
of the most ordinary business methods
mean? All OF these vegetables should
be supplied in abundance, fresh from
the gardens and fields in place of being
shipped from Virginia and the tide
water districts along the Chesapeake
Bay. From the early radish till the field
turnip disappears every kind of vege-
table which is raised in abundance
with ordinarily good culture. is shipped
from the cities to supply the demands
OF our home market, with two freights
and three commissions added to the
production cost. Such system of un-
thrift on the part of our farmers is a
neglect of opportunities inexcusable. A
truck farm of four acres would supply
all these vegetables in abundance, but
the farmers are all too intent on raising
so cent wheat and 40 cent corn to give
such small business any thought.

The Trumpet Call.

In the language of Judge Davis
great corporations and consolidated
monopolies are fast seizing the
avenues of power that lead to tae
control of the government. 1t is an
open secret that they rule states
through procured legislation and
corrupt courts; they are strong in
congress and enscrupulous in the
use of means to conquer prejudice
and acquire influence. This condition
of things Is truly alarming for unless
it be changed quickly and thoroughly,
free institutions are doomed to be
subverted by an oligarchy resting
upon basis of money and corporate
power" These are the words of an
honest man, man who occupied a
position on the bench of the Supreme
Court of the United States. Their
import is fearful to contemplate.
1t is the warning cry of a trusty
sentinel on the watch-tower OF
liberty.-Neao Forum.

About Cooking.

The New York Tribune correspon
dent gives an extended account of
Mrs. Emma p. Ewing's first lecture
at Chautauqua, from which we make
the following extract. Mrs. Emma
P. Ewing is the wife of W T. Ewing
native of this county and was a resi-
dent OF Elkton anumber of years. The
correspondent of the Tribune says
"Mrs. Ewing comes here from an
engagement at the Evansville San.
itarium where she has been for a
month. Her work included the prac,
tical instruction of the cooks. In the
lesson given here the aim is not only
to teach how to cook, but how to
select a suitable bill of fare and how
food should be grouped and served.
New practices will be illustrated.
Mrs. Ewing, by the way. recommends
the French practice Of serving salad
with meat course as relish, choos-
ing the salad with reference TO the
kind of meat. The lecture this
morning was the first of ten which
will be given three times during the
season. Bread, broiling, roasting,
soups and sauces, salads, frying and
"sauteing" broken bits, corn breads.
delicate desserts and an economical
five course dinner will constitute the
course. The dinner will be prepared
by the class, not only to show the
practical knowledge gained. but to
demonstrate a special point which
will be developed at the time. There
will be besides special lessons and
classes in pastry and cake making.
Lectures of bread making will be
given in the amphiteatre several
times during the season. This is the
only building large enough to accom-
modate the people who attend the
public lectures"

Fenner Released.

Fenner the suspected murderer of
Mrs. Richards was released by
Justice Scott on Monday his alibi
having been held as proven. He
thanked the Justice and the Sheriff
delivered him into the hands OF the
Pennsylvania authorities where he is
awaiting sentence for burglary and
attempting to kill a Philadelphia
policeman. He will go to the peniten.
tiary for term of years. 1t is very
probable that Fenner was implicated
in the murder of Mrs. Richards. 1t
is very easy for a man of Fenner's
sort to prove an alibi now adays. In
this age of reform there are many
abuses pressing Tor reform, among
them that such characters, who are
pretty nearly all known to the police,
shall be separated from the society
of honest, law abiding people and
held under surveillance during their
natural lives, and employed in useful
labor the profits from which to be
appropriated to their own use and
that of their families. "Punishment"
is a word that should be expunged
from the vocabulary of the jurispru.
dence of our civilization and pro.
lection be substituted in its place.
Protect society and protect the
criminal by a positive separation and
profitable employment for the latter.
The cost would be much less and
the results vastly better. The church
has been trying to reclaim the crimi-
nal for centuries, but he is growing
more numerous. Rational as well as
spiritual means will have to be used
The two working together would be
