Our Police Jury on the Sth inst. resolved
itself into a COMMITTEE of the whole" on the

Public Roads.
After mature deliberation, of course, they
decided that the "best" and only available
"plan' was to pay themselves three hundred
dollars each per ward per year, as "Superin-

sum of $1,000 per year $4,000 into their
pockets, during their a years term, to super
intend road overseers-who get no pay for
their services-end force them to make the
road hands-who get no pay for their work

When play becomes popular and
firmly fixed favorite with the public
the length Of its life and financial sue.
cess cannot be foretold. To make A
play such success il must have In its
composition such elements of attrac-
tiyehess as will make il strong i'm its
drawing powers with the public three,
iouf, five or more times, so that at its
each visit TO the city or town you can
always find la the audience numbers
Of people who have seen the play one
or more times before. IL Is these dual
ities that are possessed by the Stow
away and the theatre-going public
never tire of holding their breath in the
safe-blowing act, Of admiring the beau
ties of the realistic yacht scene, or Of
applauding to the echo Dicky Dials
when he saves the hero from the vii
lain, and the number of other highly
wrought up and intensely dramatic
scenes and situations always seem TO
prove attractive and full OF interest,
even to those who, from their knowl-
edge of the play, know what Is going
TO happen. 1t IL a play possessed of
those sterling and lasting qualities, and
having about it that something that
the public want, and the repeated sea-
sons Of financial success Of The Stow
away have amply demonstrated that
its exploiters were wise In their selec-
ton of their dramatic material.

spite the presence Of the Peoples party

The trial of the case of +. G. Tingley
VS.. the Fairhaven Land Company was
commenced in the superior court yes
terday morning and will in all proba-
bifity occupy the court the remainder
of the week. This is the second trial of
this celebrated case. 1t is an action
originally brought by Tingley against
Edward Eidridge, Erastus Bartlett and
the Fairhaven Land Company, in
which the plaintiff alleged a co-part-
nership between the defendants ana
claimed $4,000 as a balance due for
logs sold to them for use in the Bellinp-
ham mill. The Land company adj
mitted the co-partnership, but denied
that as many logs had been received as
alleged by the plaintiff, and claimed
that II had not been credited for money
paid to the plaintiff Eldridge and
Bartlett denied that they were nen-
bers of the firm or interested in the
mill IN any way. On May s, after
trial lasting over two weeks, the Jury
returned II verdict finding for the
plaintiff in the sum Of $S,744. rs against
the Land company. The jury also
found that Eldridge and Bartlett were
not members of the alleged firm.
Counsel for the Land company imme-
diately filed u motion for IA new trial.
which was granted by the court and
the verdict set aside.

mentioned before that there is one
variety of mandloca-nct the most COM
mon kind, however-which contains no
poisonous substance. It is the sweet
cassava or yucca, called sapim" (mani-
hot aipim), whose roots are eaten raw,
boiled or roasted, and are but little in
ferior to the South American potato
(Which, by the way, is not at all like the
cultivated potato which has been evolved
from it in other countries), similar in
taste to the lar re Italian chestnut. 1t
has the further advantage of requiring
only eight months to ripen, instead of
eighteen or twenty, but it cannot be
converted into farina or tapioca and is
worthless as an article of commerce.
Though often experimental upon, no
means has ever been devised for preserv-
ing the crude root more than twenty-four
hours, and the slightest moisture spoils
the -four. Those who depend upon it
for their chief food supply manage to
keep it from harvest to harvest by slic-
ing the roots under water and drying
them hard as rocks before a fire. When
required for use they are grated to fine
powder, which, being beaten with water,
looks like cream of almonds. Another
way is to macerate the roots until they
become as putrid as prime Dutch cheese,
then hang it up to be smoke-dried; and
this, when pounded in mortar, makes
the very whitest and most delicate
fsrina.

WISE WORDS.

Genius very much resembles lack of
sense.
Too many men honor women and
abuse their wives.
The man who loses his temper in an
argument fights with his left hand.
Every man in love wishes he had curly
hair and could play guitar and sing.
Every woman imagines that every
other woman gets new dress every
week.
A mans mind is scrap book, and the
tough things he pasted in it when he
was young never fade.
After man gets old he begins to
wonder if anybody in the world besides
himself tells the truth.
The fellow who tells everybody what
they ought to do never seems to realize
that he talks too much.
Life may not be worth living, but no
one has ever come back to prove that
death is worth rushing into.
There is enough stuff in the big hat
worn by girl of six to make ten of the
size worn by the girl Of twenty-six.
When anyone gives boy nickel his
mother always says: tWhat do you
say2" He never thinks Of it himself.
When you hear it said that man is
good man, it is a sign that the other side
of the story is not known everywhere.
There is punishment for every
pleasure. There never was an apple tree
that didn't have switches growing on
it.
As rule either the wife goes away
for few weeks pleasure or else it is the
husband. You will seldom find couple
so devoted that they 60 together

sHERBErs AND wArER-1cEs.

Sherbet in its literal sense means a
cool drink. 1t is of Oriental origin, but
in this country it has come to mean a
frozen mixture of fruit, or fruit juice,
water and sugar.
There is distinction, however, made
between waterloo and sherbet,
Sheroet has, in addition to the fruit
juice and water, either sugar sirup, white
of egg, or gelatine, to give it sufficient
viscousness to entangle and hold air when
beaten in freezer; SO that sherbets un-
less colored by the fruit used, will be
white and Opaque like snow.
Water-ices, on the contrary, are made
without the white of egg, sirup or gela-
tine, do not entangle air, and are trans
lucent, and what might be called
'swatery" in appearance.
Both sherbets and water-ices are de-
licious when made with fresh ripe fruits,
and both may be enriched by the ad-
dition of sweet cream if desired. st.
