New points and improvements are
constantly being discovered even in
the most familiar processes. Many of
these were gained by housekeepers
who at the Woman's building ut jack
son park listened to Mrs. Rorer's lee
ture on the art of bread-making with
yeast. She gave the relative values of
high and low yeast, and high yeast in
it's growth in bread was illustrated by
the growth of the plant in soil. She
said: THE idea of letting the sponge
stand over night has gone out of date.
Bread-making is easy if the cook will
understand a few essential principles"
Mrs. Rorer advocated the theory that
six o'clock dinners were best for
health, and said the idea of heavy
meals at noon was against the action
of nature. During the next lecture
she made Dutch corn pudding with
apricots, hominy croquettes and meat
sauce.

able Showing.

There were no developments yester-
day in the Bee Hive failure, other than
those already detailed in The REPUBLI-
CAN. and there was certainly nothing in
the appearance of things at the store to
indicate that there had been failure.
The receiver, Mr.. Henshaw, was busily
engaged in acquiring a knowledge of
the details of the business and the same
force OF clerks that have become fam.
liar to the patrons of the store, were at
work as usual. The receiver said that
he thought he would be able in a short
time to adjust matters, so as to re-trans-
fer the management of the store to MIR.
Winters, as the showing made y an
inventory is quite f1attering.
Beside the indebtedness secured by
mortgage, $500, there are other
liabilities, which, however, do not
amount to large sum in the aggregate
though the exact amount has not yet
been given out.
In addition to the estimated value of
the stock, 100000, as given in THE Re-
PUBLICAN yesterday, there are other
assets, such as accounts horses, cattle,
real estate, etc., which swell the total
to SO, 1856. From these figures it would
appear that satisfactory adjustment
may be easily reached.
Both the creditors and Mr.. Winters
are fortunate in the selection OF Mr..
Henshaw as manager. He is gentle
man Of ripe business experience, quick
and active, qualifications particularly
valuable in affairs of this kind.

Electricity to be Applied to North End
Street Cars.
The last remaining vestige of the old
horse car system in this city will disap-
pear next week when electricity will
supplant horses as u motive power for
the North End street cars, As chroni-
cled in the IETELLIGENcER.. a few days
ago the Wheeling Railway Company
decided upon this step, and mt once
commenced overhauling and putting in
shape the track on North Main street,
that has not been in the best condition
possible heretofore. Owing to the late
ness OF the season new rails have not
been put down, except where the old
oueI are worn out. Next spring,
however, all entirely new track will
be put down, the rails for which
are already on hand, and probably the
proposed North End loop will then be
constructed, after which that part Of
tho city will be part and parcel OF the
main system of the electric road. The
arrangement n9wbeing consumated is
merely temporary, for the purpose OF
giving North End residents good SER
vice the coming winter. The wire for
the extension has already been loaded
on the line.wagon at the Forty-eighih
street car barns, and it is expected that
the trolley will be strung early next
week, and during the week the new SER
vice with be inaugurated, with connec-
tious with the main line at Tenth street.

slipped oil, and when falling the trigger
caught and went down, discharging the
