How to Oct Soup from tho Turtle

TOW to Oet soup rom tho Turtl9.
 'I was surprised to learn the other day." said Charlie Schweickardt, that very few persons not engaged in the restaurant business know how a turtle is killed and prepared for soup. Please enlighten mankind by telling them that a turtle is killed by cutting it's head off. You know that at the least sign of danger the turtle will draw his head into his shell, and then you have to resort either to strategy or brutality to make him put out his head again. This object may be ac- complished by hanging the turile up by the tail. This will cause his head to drop down and then a sharp knife will do the rest of the work. Some people have an idea that tue turtle KS soon as ne is killed is thrown right into the pot and hoiled into soup. Wben the turtle is dead the breastplate is sawed in two and an opening to insert the securing knife is made. Then the ex- pert deftly curvessthe knife ;in such a manner as to remove the backplate without taking d particle of meat with 1t. The eLtfails are secared and then the real body of the turtle is put in the pot and vegetables and other accesso- ries added with hot water. Then let it boil and you will soon have good turtle soup. ."-St. Louis Republic.

Whisky Trust Cases May Develop
Sensations.


Boston, March Ia story published
this evening says: More surprises are
in store for the people most interested
in the whisky trust cases before another
twenty-four hours have elapsed. 1t is
not improbable, say those who are in a
position to know, that arrests will be
made on indictments found by the fed
eral grand jury, now in session in this
city, which will create profound seu-
satiOn. The indictments have resulted
from the prosecution of the whisky
trust officials, and the charge contained
in them is that Of tampering with MEM
bers of the grand jury, and OF attempt
ing to prevent the finding of the indict
ment. The matter has been kept eX
ceedlngly quiet. District Attorney
Allen does not deny that indictments
have been found; he merely says he
can give no information.
LOWELL, Mass, March 1.-Charles I.
Hood SAID today: The statement that |
was leader in fighting this whisky trust
is not correct. Mr.. Stickney, who pur-
chased our alcohol, called my attention
some time ago to this combination, but
! was busy at the time and did not pay
much attention to it. We continued to
purchase our alcohol where we could
get it the cheapest, and finally MIR.
Stickney called my attention to the fact
that the agents OF this combination re-
fused to redeem our rebate checks. The
rebate money is held by the agents of
any interest on it. That money should
be enough to conduct the business, and
the parties owning the dlStillerieS in the
combination need not have dollar of
capital invested.
When the agents of the combination
refused to redeem our checks because
we purchased alcohol of parties outside
their combination, | wrote to the attor-
ney general about the matter, and he
referred the communication to the
United States district attorney for in
veStigation. Notwithstanding the ef-
forts of this combination, we have been
able to purchase alcohol of outside par
ties at cheaper rate. think we have
purchased alcohol from members of the
combination who hope to break down
the competitor selling to us. do not
wish to be placed in the position of
fighting this trust or combination. but l
want the right to purchase alcohol in
the cheapest market.

CHICAGO, March Information has
been received here to the effect that
George j. Gibson, ex-secretary of the
whisky trust, has been arrested at
Peoria under the indictment found
against the officers of the trust at BoS-
ton.
PEORIA, ILL.,, March President
Greenhut and Mr.. Gibson, of the whisky
trust, gave bail before the United States
commissioner here today and will be in
Boston Monday when the case comes
up. AT the headquarters of the whisky
trust the heads of the concern have
little to say. President Greenhut fore
saw the present trouble over two
months ago and rendered his resigna-
ton. 1t was his intention to so to
Europe and stay there the year out, but
his resignation was not accepted.

to the public they feel as though they
knew whereof they spoke. AS has al
ready been stated, they, with others, are
the absolute owners of the Duluth,
Mesabi q Northern railroad, having
teen its original projectors and build
ers. The road runs from point on the
st. Paul & Duluth into the Mesabi
range, and when completed will have its
terminals on st. Louis bay at point yet
to be determined. While they control
this important adjunct to the mines it is
their intention to treat all alike in the
matter of shipments, giving all the COM
panies as good facilities in this regard
as they themselves possess. They built
the road for the purpose of developing
the range, they say, and they propose,
as far as lies in their power, to see that
that is done. These gentlemen are just
now reaping the rewards that in the
guise of "all things" are popularity sup
posed to come to those who wait.
They Had Faith
in the mines, but others did not; they
had faith in their railroad enterprise,
but others did not AS sequence,
they went through period which is
best described as ''hard sleddin.'" But
the indOlnitable energy and enterprise
average American came to their as
Sistance and enabled them to survive
the buffetIngs of outrageous fortune
with the results depicted above. Their
stocks are. in the language of the curb,
'bOOmlng," and they see considerable
light ahead. One of their properties,
which have omitted to mention, is the
Mesabi Mountain company. 1t is
stocked for the same amount as the
Biwabik, and the company controls
about 5000 acres of state leases on the
range and about fifteen acres in fee.
The stock has been selling readily at
about SIS per share. They struck ore
yesterday, and their experts claim that
it is soma of the finest ore yet discovered
OH the range. Much interest is still be-
ing manifested in the future outlook for
irou manufacturing concerns. Rumors
fill the air, aud if everything develops
that is spoken of, iron manufacturing
centers of the country will have to hide
their diminished heads. The claim is
made and the facts seem to sustain it,
that iron can be manufactured cheaper
here than at any other point in the
United States. The cheapness with
which all the ores on the Mesabl range
Can be mined appears to be about the
first thing that strikes the average yisi-
tor. The next, of course. is the quality
of the ore, which is all of high grade
ami capable of being manufactured into
the finest quality of Bessemer steel.

EAR MARKS OF A FAKE.
Alleged Disreputable Deal in Can
adian Politics.

WINNIPEG, Man., March 1.-The
organ of tie Manitoba government
here last night published a startling
statement to the effect that bargain
has been made between the Roman
Catholic church and the Conservative
government at Ottawa, by which the
church has pledged itself to give the
Conservatives the entire Catholic vote.
One condition of the arrangement is
that Abbott, the present Dominion
premier, is to retire in the near future
and be succeeded by Sir John Thomp-
son, who is a Roman Catholic. Another
condition is that, in the event of the
prIVy council of England declaring the
act recently passed by the Manitoba
government abolishing Catholic schools
to be valid and constitutional, the
Dominion government will promptly
pass remedial legislation annulling the
act and giving Catholics the right to
maintain their separate schools at the
public expense,

HELENA, Mont. March 1.-The Inde-
pendent says: 1.-The report sent out
from Butte under a Helena date to the
effect that the sale of the sapphire
grounds near Helena to an English syn
dicate had miscarried is without par
ticle of truth. Cullen & Shelton, the at
torneys in whose hands the English in
terests have been placed, say they have
not received advices not to pay over the
money to the original owners. Presi-
dent l.. A. Hershfield, of the Merchants
National bank, whois the financial agent
in the deal, says the story is a
faiSehO0d from beginning to end. A.
n. Spratt, one of the owners, also de-
nies the story. There has been little
delay in the transfer, due solely to the
fact that the syndicate has purchased
many segregated interests, and the ex-
animation of title by the English law
yers has been slow. Surveyors are now
atswork on the lands, preparing for the
beginning of active operations as soon
as spring fairly opens.

TACOMA, Wash, March 1.-The SEN
sation of the season came to light today
when an examination of the county
records disclosed the fact that last June
Seymour l.. Rau, of Tacoma, was mar
ried at Seattle to Louise E. Dearborn,
notorious woman, who has resided here
hree years. Rau is one of Tacoma's
four hundred, and one of the most
prominent Republicans in Western
Washington. The woman, while
fast, has long been acknowledged
to be one of the most beautiful in the
Northwest, and Rau is not the first who
has been smitten with her charmes. At
one time she was supported by an ex
mayor of Tacoma. The most peculiar
and interesting part of the story is that
last December Mrs. Rau applied to the
court here for an annullment of the
marriage, alleging that the ceremony
had been performed in joking way by
a Seattle justice of the peace under as
sumed names. and that they had never
lived together as husband and wife.
Later they found that the ceremony
was valid in law, and, to avoid property
disputes, appealed 70 the court. Rau's
cross bill substantiated his wife's allie
CATION, and Judge Beverly annulled the
marriage. Such influence was brought
to bear at the time that the record of the
case was suppressed. and the fact kept
secret until accidentally disclosed today.
Some believe that the marriage was in
tended as a cover for certain transac-
tions. though Rau insists it was a
joke from beginning to end. How
ever that may be, Tacoma society
has received rude shock from which it
will not soon recover, for Rau was ad-
mitted into the first homes, which his
connection with the notorious Mrs.
Dearborn will forbid in the future. His
usefulness to the Republican party is
also ended, for as party leader he can
no longer be admitted into its inner
councils. Rau is mortified and cha
grined. His ex-wife has assumed her
former name and continues to treat the
affair as Joke.

Thomas was interviewed today in re-

Blaine made public last Sunday. The
Judge was quite averse to talking on the
subject, but, after much persistence,
consented to explain his position. He

now was an enthusiastic advocate OF O
''big convention" He wanted the basis
made on such ratio that the conven-
tion would contain about 1000 dele
gates. In this he was opposed by nearly
all the members of the committee, some
of whom were willing to have the num-
ber of delegates increased, although ap-
posed to having 1t done in accordance
with the plan advocated by Mr.. Good
now.
The Hennepin man advocated that
the convention be made double the size
of the state convention of 1890, which
contained 459 delegates. That conven-
tion was called according to the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved. That each county polling 500 or
more votes for the Republican candidate for
president in 1888 shall be entitled to two del
egates at large; those polling less than 500
votes, one delegate at large; within each
county one additional delegate for every 500
voIes cast for president i'll 1888, and Que dele
gate for each fraction over 100.
Mr.. Goodnow's proposition was that
each county polling over 500 votes in
1883 be given four delegates atlarge leach
county polling less than that number,
two delegates at large. and in addition
one delegate for each $50 votes or major
fraction thereof cast for President Har-
T1oOIt III 1000. ulo llIObIOu VI NIL oOOo-
now came in the form of a substitute
for motion made by Secretary Tams
Bixby, fixing the size of the convention
at the same figure and on the same basis
as that of two years ago. The Henne-
pin county man had no sooner offered
his substitute than Senator Tawney
said:
"How MANY votes will Hennepin and
Ramsey counties have under that sub
stitute ?''
Mr.. Goodnow -Hennepin SO; Ramsey
81. The total, 91S.
Chairman Heatwole-WOuld not Hen
nepin have about "a
This IS not Hennepin county mat
ter" said Mr.. Goodnow. Under my
resolution there is no difference in the
proportion in Hennepin and Ramsey
counties than in the call of two years
ago. The number of delegates is eX-
actly doubled, and the only argument
that can be made against it Is that ow-
ing to the fact that this convention will
have little to do the people will be in
different and fail to come out. This, |
believe, is mistaken impression. At
the time this convention will be held
the national convention will be near
enough to make the people attend. They
will have in view the practical re-
suits that there may be in the
position. At the present time the peo-
pie ont through the state are not talk
ing state and personal politics. They
