If your skill or that of your butcher
can compass it, a boned turkey is a most
delicate dish. Place inside of 1t a small
boned owl and fill the interstices with
sausage meat or any preferred dressing.
When you carve cut the slices quite
through. l should prefer a well-seasoned
bread dressing for filling the body of the
fowl, and boiled chestnuts with melted
butter for filling the spaces In the body
Of the turkey. A celery stuffing is en-
cellent and made by mixing a PURGE of
boiled and mashed celery with the bread
crumbs, and three-quarters of an hour
before the bird is done his body shall be
~festooned with homemade, country, link
sausages, turned every few minutes &c
that they shall be as delicious n brown
as the turkey itself. A wild turkey is a
great delicacy II you can procure one
that is not too old.

A%ldermanic Combines" are by no
means rare. History records the con-
ception. progress and results of one in
1884. together with the subsequent fate of
the combiners.
1t is observable that these combina-
lions are rarely II ever made in the in
teres. of the city. They have their
origi'. in a burgiarious desire to break
into Il good thing wherever one Is dis
covered, or supposed to be discovered,
from which the Aldermen ere excluded.
The good thing Just now scented by
the Aldermanic nose Is the spending OF
more than II million dollars IA year on
asphalt pavement. The well-drilled, so
jerly" Aldermanic mind cannot conceive
how this annual outlay can be made
without that comfortable and comfort
Ing %perquisite known as a 'divvy" being
realized, and the Aldermen wan to be
'in." SO some six or eight OF them
combine" to block every resolution Or
dering asphalt pavement to be laid, and
1t Is evident that they will continue to
do 80 until they are satisfied by "argu-
ments' of the folly OF their conduct.
They rave adopted the war cry:
And must the asphalt lie; n must the
asphalt lie?
''Then half II dozen Aldermen will know
the reason why"
As the Trinidad asphalt, according to
Mayor Gilroy's statement. is laid In this
city more cheaply than in any other
city In the country, and rs n security
fun of 30 per cent. of the contract
price IL retained as n guarantee of good
work. this Aldermanic venture will prob
ably come to grief. Meanwhile the com
Diners will please bear In mind thai the
people like asphalt roads wherever they
are available, and that they are impa-
tient of any interruption In the desirable
work Of improving the city's pavemcnts.

Dinners aud Table TALK.

The conversation at the dinner table
should be general, unless the company
is large and the table too long to adj
NIT of it. But. in any case, each one
is responsible, first of all, for keeping
up a pleasant chat with his or her neigh
boz, and not allowing that II to be
neglected while attention is riveted on
some aggressively brilliant talker at the
other end of the table. No matter
how Misunderstanding ones partner may
be. one must be thoughtful and enter
tanning, and such kind attention may win
the lifelong gratitude OF a timid debu-
tante or the equally unsophisticated
country cousin.
Dinner-table talk should be affable.
The host and hostess must be alert to
turn the conversation from channels that
threaten a~ntagonisms of opinions and
each guest should feel that 1t is more
important just now to make other peo-
ole happy han to crafty his impulse
to floor" them on the tariff question.
In short, at dinner, as under the most
social conditions, the watchword ever
in mind should be: mot to myself
alone"

HE DIDN'T BREAK THE BANK.

Mr.. Chauncey Nj. Depew has been en-
joying himself at Nice. Yesterday he
drove over to Monaco. and visited the
rooms at Monte Carlo, 1t is said, for the
first time in his life.
Naturally, a man with Mr.. Depew's
inquiring mind became at once inter
ested in the game of rouge ct woir.
While he stood looking on. a lady, one
of his companions, slipped n hve-franc
piece on one of the little spaces at the
end of the row of figures and soon drew
back three tive-franc pieces as win
nings. Try again" said the Railroad
President, and the lady did try three
times. but each time her iive-franc
pieces were raked in. "Ah! | see," re
marked Mr.. Dcpew, the bank gets II
ALL"
Well. Is it not the same everywhere?
In New York.. as at Monte Carlo-in rail.
reading as at roulette? Is 1t not the rule
that the bank gets 1t all?"
The experience was enough for tht
President. He passed scathcless through
all the rooms. Even the charm of trentt
ct quarante failed to captivate him, and
| Mr.. Depcw went back to his hotel with,
out making an attempt to emulate the
man who broke the bank at Monte

WELL, WHY MOTT

The Senate yesterday adopted senator
Hoar's resolution asking the President
to send to Congress If, in his opinion, not
inconsistent with the public interests all
the instructions sent to our representa-
tives in Hawaii since March 4. 1851.
The Republicans all supported the rcso-
luton. They meant 1t for mischief.
Senator Hin backed their hands and
spoke in favor of the resolution. He
meant 1t for Justice and right. He was
entirely correct when he maintained the
position that the American people eX-
pected to receive Information on the
subject in the Presidents message, and
hat 1t was proper that Congress Should
obtain 1t for them in the manner pro-
posed.
1t Is seldom wise to withhold the facts
in any from the public. There
are. OF course, occasions when 1t would
be injudicious to let facts be known.
But in such cases the President with
holds them and gives his reasons, as he
will in this instance, provided he con-
siders such IL course expedient.
The only mistake Senator Hill made
was in designating the words "if in ms
opinion not inconsistent with the public
interests" as unnecessary. They are
essential in all such cases, and their
omission would have been unwise.

A tiny garden can be made by cutting
a piece of sheet wadding to fit the top of
a bowl or a wide-mouthed jar, which is
filled with water just high enough for
the bottom of the wadding to touch 1t.
Two or three small bits Of charcoal will
keep the water pure, and, when all is ar
ranged, the top of the wadding Is sprin-
killed. with seeds of mignonette, sweet pea
or any other easily grown plant. The
roots pierce down through h wadding
and are nourished by the water. while
leaves and blossoms, in a reasonable
time, conceal the top. There is but one
flower more beautiful that the morning
glory on the outside Of the bay window,
and that is a morning-glory trained UP
on the inside of he window, and in
full bloom while the Winter storms are
raging and the thermometer Is below
zero. They can be grown with very lit

What has he got to give her? He is not pretty

She SHOT At PARIS DOCTOR.
Says She Was Hypnotized BY a
Pupil of Charcot
italian Troubles Grow Worse-Gsn-
eral News by Gable.
(nY Assoclated Press.l

PARIS, Dec. DIR. Tourette, a we'll
known pupil Of the late DIR. Charcot,
was shot while seated In his consulting
room yesterday evening.
DIR. Tourette was seated at his desk,
reading n book. at about 6 =. NJ, when
the door of his consulting-room was
roiselessly opened, and u pretty young
woman. with very bright eyes n a
nervous n entered and rapidly APP
preached the doctor. The latter, upon
hearing the rustic OF the woman's dress
and the sound of her footsteps turned
his head and appears to have sprung to
his feet and attempted to escape from
the room.
The woman fired three shots at him
with n revolver before he could make
his exit, one bullet taking effect behind
DIR. Tourette's right ear.
The shots attracted the doctors sep-
vant n other people to the room, and
the woman was seized and disarmed.
w len placed in the hands of the po-
lice the young prisoner at first refused to
give any account of herself, but later
on she said her name vas Camper, and
excitedly declared that she was justi-
fled in shooting DIR. Tourette as he had
placed her and kept her continually
under his hypnotic influence, and that
it was utterly impossible for her to re-
gain possession of her own will unless
she killed the person to whose hypnotic
influence she was subjected.
She said she had formerly been al in
mate of the Hospital de la Saltpetriere,
on the Boulevard de rHospital, a vast
establishment originally an arsenal,
built by Louis Kill, which has been
converted into an insane asylum for
aged and insane women.
The woman said that DR.. Tourette had
attended her there, and 1t seems hat the
doctor was in the habit Of being at the
hospital mentioned, when the late DR..
Charcot, the famous specialist in merry
GUS diseases, delivered his interesting
lecture at that establishment
Whether DIR. Tourette experimental
upon the woman during his study OF
%hypnotism or not. Is n mater which has
not yet been made clear. and thus this
interesting feature of the tragedy Still,
remains a mystery.
Or. Tourette Is not dangerously
wounded.
