Inspecting ParsonDurg's Natural Gas.


It is said that professor from the
scientific department of one of the
Pennsylvania Colleges was at Parson-
burg, Nd, on Saturday night to
examine the gas wells at that place.
These wells, which were discovered
about year ago. have created some
littls excitement over the entire state,
and for the year have been giving out
their supply of gas, which has been
strong enough to furnish heat and
light for several Of the houses. 1t will
be remembered the wells were acciden-
tally discovered while driving for
water, and at the time of the discovery
strange fluid was thrown up from the
wells by the boiling inside. The fluid
is milk white in color and is strongly
charged with sulphur. Upon pouring
some Of the fluid in basin of pure
water, aud letting it stand all night it
was discovered that a considerable
quantity of oil had formed on the sur
face. 1t is the hope of the people Of
Parsonsburg that the chemest will find
something substantial in this gas
which, upon further experiments, will
disclose coal properties.

The Housekeeper.

ORANeEADE.-Taket the thin peel
of two oranges and one lemon add
the water and sugar the same as for
lemonade; when cold add the juice of
one lemon and of four or five oranges
and strain off.
LEMON JELLY. = Take half dozen
lemons, squeeze the julie into a. quart
Of water, in which dissolve an ounce
Of gelatine, boil five minutes, strain,
color with fruit coloring, add pound
Of sugar, and. set on the stove until
dissolved. Strain again, pour it in
fancy moulds and set on ice.
FRITTERs.-Three eggs, two table,
spoonfuls Of sugar, one pint of sour
milk, one teaspoonful of soda, a pinch
of salt, -four enough to make stiff
batter. Beat thoroughly. Drop a
large spoonful in hot lard. Fry brown
and roll in powdered sugar when done.
WHITE FRICAssEED CHICKEN
Cut chicken in pieces, wash it and
season with pepper and salt. Put in a
stewpan with little water and let it
stew till nearly done then add a tea
cup of cream and some butter rolled
in flour to thicken the gravy. If the
chicken is fat very little butter is
necessary. Mace or nutmeg may be
added if you likesspices.
To REMOVE PAINT STAINs.-Satur-
ate the paint spot on wool dress
wit spirits of turpentine, and let it re-
main several hours, when by rubbing
the spot between the hands, the paint
will crumble away from the fabric.
The turpentine will soon evaporate.
If not successful at the first time, re-
peat the application, rubbing several
times.
SoFT WAFFLEs. Beat two eggs
without separating until very light !;
add to them one half pint of milk now
add two tablespoonsfuls Of butter that
has been softened, but not melted, and
two cups of flour. Beat thoroughly
for about five minutes, then add one
heaping teaspoonful Of baking powder;
beat again and they are ready to bake.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve
hot.
CHICKEN PATEs.-Chop meat of
cold chicken fine season with salt !;
make a large cupful of rich drawn
butter, and while on the fire add two
hard boiled eggs minced fine, a little
chopped parsley. and the meat of a
chicken let this mixture also boil
have ready some paste pans of good
rich paste !; remove the covers with
edge Of knife fill in with the MKT
ure, and arrange on hot platter; in
baking the crust it is good plan to
fill in with square of stale bread,
which is easily removed as soon as it
comes from the oven. This keeps the
crust from falling fiat, as it would
otherwise do without the chicken
mixture.

HILL AND TAMMANY.
THEY COME BOLDLY FORWARD TO
THE SUPPORT oFCLEvELAND
AND STEVENSON.

4
Senator David B. Hill has, in let
ter to the Tammany Societies, declar-
ed for Cleveland and party unity.
Here is an extract from his letter.
Our course at the present time is
plain. The Democracy of New York
in the approaching struggle should
present solid front to the common
enemy. Loyalty to cardinal Demo-
cratic principles and regularly nomi.
mated candidates is the supreme duty
of the hour.
Here is Tammany's endorsement. Il
is more explicit, if possible, than thai
of Senator Hill.
ResolUed, That Tammany Hall or.
ganization, in executive meeting as.
sembled, cordially indorses the plat
form of principles enunciated by the
Democratic national convention al
Chicago and pledges its earnest ani
untiring support to the nominees ol
that convention, Grover Cleveland oi
New York and Adlai E. Stevenson
of Illinois.
The above was unanimously adopted
by the Tammany committee oftwenty
four at special meeting held las
Monday afternoon. Its purpose:was tt
place the organization squarely milne
to indicate to the Democrats Of the
country that, although Tammany had
another choice before the national con
vention was held, it is now heart and
soul in the fight to elect Cleveland ant
Stevenson.

Women and National Afrairs.

Miss Eleanor Kirk, Of Brooklyn,
writing in the Chicago Citizen on the
question of woman's ability to under
stand and intelligently discuss national
topics, says that there are women.
and those, too, who do not aspire to
public offices, who know as much about
the silver question and other subjects
of national interest as men. The
affairs of the country interest them
deeply. If ! wanted question 10

women within a stones throw who
could satisfactorily instruct me. just
men with brains are willing to admit
that the old argument OF woman's
inability to understand national affairs
had never grain of truth in it. That
they did not understand was once more
or less correct, but that they could not
understand was always mistake.

THE following is quotation from
MIR. McKinley's speech on presenting
the conference report on the Mckinley
bill in September, 1890: " Nothing
has been done in the metal schedule
that can result in loss of business and
nothing that can call for a reduction
of wages"
There is no beating around the
bush y in this statement. The father
Of this, the most iniquotous and abom-
nibls tariff bill that ever became a
law, said 1t himself. In the face Of
this the chief bene fciary of the metal
schedule is cutting wages from 30 to
so per cent. While the strikers at
Homestead are greeting the troops
with brass bands and cheers, the mill
tary should reciproate with recita-
tions from the Mckinley bill, showing
how it protects I" the workmen; and
the above quotation might not be out
of place.

The Free Coinage Bill Killed.

The final defeat Of the Stewart free
coinage bill was effected in the House
yesterday, the sound-money Democrats
having the assistance of the sound
money Republicans. This will lift a
load from the minds of people who
feared that the Democratic House
would second the folly of the Republic
can Senate and thereby compromise
the wise position assumed by the
national democracy in the Chicago
platform. Now the way is clear for a
rousing campaign on the right issues,
with nothing to palliate or explain.
The Democratic party has little by
little sloughed off all the false-colors
its would-be leaders have sought to
put upon it. 1t is right on the tariff,
right on the force bill, right on the
civil service question and right on
silver. Best of all, it is right on its
candidate. It has had to exert itself
to get into a position of its own choos-
ing, but it is there.
The effect of yesterdays vote on the
chances of Democratic Congress sman it
is difficult to estimate with precision.
In the Eastern States the vote will
most probably enable many a Demo-
crat to retain his seat. In the South
and West the result, some prophets
say, will be the substitution of a num-
Der of third party for Democrats in
the next House. 1t was the fear of
this that stampeded so many members
into the free coinage fold. But it is
believed by close observers that the
strength Of the free coinage sentiment
has everywhere been estimated.
1t has been noisy. but it has lacked
numbers. In the South, where the
force bill and the tariff are the main
interests, it is unlikely that there will
be any disposition, silver or no silver,
to give the Republicans control of the
House. Too much depends on it,

Edison Beaten on a Patent.

The Commissioner of Patents at
Washington, has just rendered a deci-
sion declaring that Joseph w. Swan,
and MOI Thomas A, Edison, is the
original inventor of the electric light
carbon for incandescent lamps.
Swan filed his application for the
patent in question April 18th, 1880,
while Edison's application for the
same invention is dated May 9th,
1881. The Wizard claimed, however,
that he made his invention in Octo-
ber, 1879, and in the first controversy
over the patent the examiner-in-chief
awarded to him the priority of right.
The present decision is based upon
an appeal taken by Mr.. Swan from
the award of the examiners. The
Commissioner says that, although
Edison may have made the invention
in 1879, as be claims, the proba bilities
are against him.

rHE HoMEsrEAp rRounLE.
THE MILITARY IN COMMAND, BUT
THE MILLS HAVE NOT YET
RESUMED OPERATIONS.

The Homestead affair is by no means
settled, although eight thousand SOL
diers are encamped outside the town.
The strikers were inclined to give the
militia a hospitable reception but Gen.
eral Snowden FIRMLY told them that his
soldiers came there TO preserve order
and not to be made the lions at arecep-
tion. All the Homestead people had
to do was to mind their own business
and he would mind his. This action on
the part of the commanding officer re-
suited in bringing about strong feel
ing against him. and the people are
sullen over his treatment OF their offer.
The investigation of the lockout
and riot by the Congressional commit
tee and the threatened strike OF l6,0OO
additional employees of the mills at
Homestead and at Beaver Falls were
the leading features of yesterday.
The days developments, while
not indicating immediate danger of
renewed lawlessness. suggest more for
chilly than at any previous moment
that widespread struggle of intense
bitterness is impending. Nothing
apparently can prevent strike in the
other Carnegie mills tomorrow. The
issue is clear-cut and simple. The
workmen in Pittsburg say that unless
the Carnegie Company will give a
hearing to the Homestead strikers they
will quit work.
The owners of the mills reply that
they will never open negotiations with
men who have done murder in oppos-
| ing the interests of their former en-
ployees. This determination of the
Carnegie Company is as deep-rooted as
the existence of the corporation itself.
They will sacrifice every dollar of the
thirty millions which they have invest
ed in Western Pennsylvania before
they will yield point which they
regard as fundamental to all existing
relations of capital and labor.
Peace now reigns at Homestead but
it is peace at the cannon's mouth.
