TIE Sultan of JOhOre.

"A little party Of Americans have

account Of their expedition from

In the windy, bleak nights when
the rain falls in torrents or the snow,
flying in clouds, seems to cut asunder
all that comes before it, the cowboy
has the greatest obstacles to over
come. These are the nights when
sudden stampede might destroy all
the rounding-up work of weeks pre-
ceeding.
Mounted on his best bronco, the
cowboy rides out to his post on the
outskirtsiot the gathered herd, miles
away, perhaps, from the camp. AS
the wind whistles in hoarse cadence
along the surface of the ground and
through the sage-bush, his dull chant
| floats over to the uneasy herd.
A few steers, made restless by the
cold, start to wander away from the
gathering place, and through the
blackness of the night the cowboW
sees their moving forms. Without
ceasing the song he moves gently
past them, and they are turned back
to the thousands they have attempted
to leave. Once in a while steer es-
capes, to return again at break OF
day, but the general stampede seldom
happens.
But when a stampede does occur
the cowboys nerve is tried to the ut
most. "Milling' a stampede is one
of the most dangerous operations tina
cowboy has to endure. To mill thu
cattle is to get them going in circle
, and letting them run themselve
down. A frighted herd of severa

TRUE cosMoPoLIs OF EUROPE.
The Foreign Population of Paris Includes
1000 from This Country.


1000 from This Country.
The cosmopolitan character OF the
population of Paris has frequently
been commented upon. The French
capital is full of luxurious loungers
all the time, men and women IN
whom the love oftheir own country Is
entirely extinct or who find Paris
pleasanter sojourning place than any
other. They are the butterflies OF
the world the people who have more
time and money than they know now
to spend and to whom the changing
life of Paris has the charm that usu-
ally accompanies variety. They are
drones in the busy hive of French IN
dustry. But according TO the
Rochester Herald the working bees
are also foreign to great extent.
In 1886 the population of Paris was
| 2 334, $50. Just what proportion OF
this number were foreigners is not
shown by available statistics, but a
recent official statement gives the
| present number as close upon 3OJ, OOO.
| These people are Of foreign nation
ality, but hold permanent residence
in Paris. 1t IS estimated that ~.

A Turkey Soup.

A turkey soup is generally prepared
to use I'D the remains Of the cold
roast turkey. No one would be likely
to make this soup of an uncooked
turkey, which is much more valuable
served in roast or braise. Take the
bones with any bits Of meat and dres-
sing clinging to them from a cold
roast turkey. Break them and cover
them with two quarts of beef stock.
Water will do, but beef stock is the
best Let the soup simmer slowly
for four hours, then strain the soup,
separate the meat from the bones,
making it into force meat balls 10
do this mince the meat as fine as pos
siDle, and pound it to a paste.
There should be about a cupful.
| Moisten it with yolks of three eggs
and very little hot soup, and when
! il is cold make it into balls IN the
size of hickory nuts and lay them ID
a little of the boiling soup just before
if is served. Let the soup simmer
gently aroung the balls for five or sll
minutes: it must not boil hard
While you are making the force meal
balls add a sliced carrot, an onion,
turnip, and Ieek, to the soup
with a bay leaf, a stalk OF sOul
celery, about three sprays of parsle,
and a sprig of thyme. Let the vege

Returned to Work.

All the men who quit work at Deere &
Co.'S Tuesday haye returned to work and
Gilpin Moore says the differences have
been satisf actorily adjusted. Mr. Moore
ssYs:the reason the men quit work was
because of change made by the com
papy in the price of work to be paid Mr..
Gale, who has q number of men and
boys working for him. The cid prices
were established when the company had
much less Of this class of work to be
done, and consequently Mr.. Gale en-
ployed but few hands. Since then the
amount Of this kind of work has in
creased, Mr. Gale has to have more hands
under his supervision. and new machin>
cry and appliances have been provided so
that much greater quantity Of work is
turned out.
In consequence of this Mr.. Gale was
enabled TO make larger profit on the
work done under his supervision than the
company was willing TO pay under present
conditions. Mr.. Moore says further that
he had informed Mr.. Gale that he did not
desire to have him make any reduction in
the wages paid his helpers, as it was not
intended that the change in prices should
affect them. Mr.. Moore says concerning
the settlement of the differences, that
few mistakes had teen made in the figures
recently given out. These errors were
readily corrected. and both parties are
satisfied. Mistakes Of this kind, he says,
are liable to occur in any resdjustment of
prices. and such mistakes the company is
at all times willing to remedy when they
are brought to the notice Of its officers.
