that Mary Page, aged 10 years, and

their parents before leaving that
they were going out for a walk.
The matter was thoroughly inVes-

For some time past these girls

negro boys, and matters became
quite serious, when the mothers
objected and ordered their
daughters to cease keeping COM

Trouble Over Land.

Cecilia Guzman was arrested
yesterday on an affidavit made by
Cisto Flores, charging her with
using abusive language. The case
came up before the recorder this

aged woman, has been living with
this man Flores for the past seven
years, and they had some property
together. A row occurred yester-
day over the property, and the old
woman did use some abusive Ian
guage, though she was abused
before hand by him. The recorder
dismissed the case.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

The people had a right to expect
much of the present city council,
composed, as it is, of picked bust
ness men, and elected by an over
|whelming vote at the ballot box.
The present city council cannot
be we'll improved upon, if stability
of character, good citizenship, and
successful business careers count
for anything in the makeup of a
city legislator.
Alderman French representing
the 4th ward, is man of large eX-
perience in the science of city gov
ernment, for ten years he presided
over our city as mayor.
Gen. Russ is one of the most sue
cessful men of the new era, shrew
in business, far seeing, and bold in
design.
Alderman Mackey has proven
his ability, his enterprise in the
splendid fortune he has built up in
our city and in his public spirit, in
every undertaking of benefit to the
city.
Alderman Elmendorf, the sue
cessful merchant, a selfpoised,
sound, able man.
Alderman Daugherty, the small
est man in stature in the council,
but as lively as a cricket, he is a
successful, enterprising,wide awake
real estate dealer, and al i've to
every public interest.

Alderman Albert Beckmann, the
polished architect and able cOun-
Gilman with experience in the for
mer board.
Alderman Joe Beckmann, the
sturdy shoemaker, a man of sound
sense and great firmness of char
acter.
Alderman HOefling, next to AL
derman French, the most expert
enced public officer in the council.
Mr.. II. has won reputation for
his good sound sense and his hard
medicines in pursuing his objects.
a successful business man.
Alderman Sinner, a shrewd bust
ness man and capitalist, thor
Oughly Independent and disposed
to be liberal in the direction of in
creasing salaries of city employees.
Aldermen Smith, Menger and
Limburger, are all new men in
public life,-all successful business
men.
Now, with such a city legislature
in charge of affairs the people have
right to expect that their bust
ness affairs will be handled with
ability.
The people are eXcusable if they
express establishment and disap-
pOintment when week after week
passes away without anything be-
ing attempted to lift our city out
of the old, disastrous financial rut
into which it had fallen under the
late city administration.
The people are eXcusable if they

reckless way, in which this able
body of legislators vote appropria-
ton after appropriation to do little
jobs in their respective wards,
with not a dollar in the treasury to
pay them.

Cleaning Ovens.

The condition ot the average stoyt
oven .u which food and pastry arc baked
is NOT such rs to inspire admiration In
fact. a periunotory sort Of sweeping is
about all the cleaning our stove ovens
ever receive. In great many cases rem.
uInts OF dishes which have boiled over
remain for months Chared on the oven
bottom.
Now all this negligence in the c5re Of
the oven undoubtedly affects the food
cooked in it. In some parts OF England
where brick ovens are used the walls OF
them are whitcwaShcd. This purifies
them, as common WhiteNaSh. it is well
known. is an excellent disinfccAnt. Oh
course ii would not be possible to treat
an ordinary iron stove oven IN this way,
as the lime would corrode the oven. lie
some parts OF Europe the ovens are tiled,
and these may be easily washed clean.
There is no possible objection to wash
ing out the oven OF an iron range. If
this is done Systematically at least once i
week from the beginning the oven will
never get in the black, sooty condition IN
which it is so frequently found.
When anything boils over in the oven,
it should be allowed to burn to a char,
as it then may be easily seraped OFT and
brushed out After this the oven should
be thoroughly aired 1t is great mis-
take to bake delicate dessert or cake or
pie in the same oven with dish of meat
which has been favored with onions or
strong spices The flavor of the meat
will invariably affect the more delicate
dishes. The shallow closet under the
baking oven, commonly called the heat
ing closet, where dishes may be tempo
rarily kept warm after they are cooked,
should be kept as clean as the stove oven
1t is certainly very disagreeable and a
hard lob to clean stove which has been
neglected. but it is a small matter to keep
a stove clean if YOU begin at the beginning
and never allow it to become clogged
with SCOT and dust and the debris of food.
The hues of every oven should be cleaned
out once month.-Nt7p l@k Irl5HHc
