The Basis of Good Coffee.
New York Ledger.

New York Ledger.
An ideal cup of coffee can, it is
said, be made only in one way. The
coffee must be of the best quality
and must be roasted, ground i'm
mediately and used as quickly as
possible. COnnOisSeurS in coffee as
sure us that it is out of the Ques-
ton to make this beverage absO-
lutely perfect out of factOry-roast-
ed coffee that has been allowed to
stand in the open air any number
of hours; and, in addition, one
might say that such a thing as a
cup of good coffee from that which
is purchased ready-grOund is an
impossibility. The fine aroma Of
the berry evaporates in a very
short time.
Given the freshly roasted and
ground caffee, an earthen cOtfee-pOt
heated very hot by being filled
with boiling water, which must be
poured out again and cOtfee-bag
strainer. Then put in the coffee,
ground very fine, almost to a
powder; pour upon it boiling water
NOT merely hot-cOver tightly
and allow the coffee to filter
through. Have ready the cups,
heated by pouring boiling wa
ter in them, but in the re-
quired quantity of cream and
sugar, then fill up with the
distilled nectar from the coffee-pot,
and one has a beverage that is a
revelation. Never expect good re-
suits from poor coffee or lukewarm
water and half-cold utensils.

STEALING A RIDE.
A Colored Woman Who Has a
Very Close Call.

1t is not often that Il woman
tries to steal dead head ride on a
freight train and usually speaking
the feminine gender is not agile
enough to try to capture one as it
speeds by at twenty miles an hour
but such an attempt was made
this morning and it came within
an ace of costing woman her life
and resulted in her being very bad
ly hurt.
Just as freight train was pull
ing out of the Southern Pacific
yards west bound, at seven o'clock
this morning, negress came out of
a shanty owned by William Hiley,
the man who was sentenced to five
years in the penitentiary for arson,
and tried to board it. She caught
at the iron stair rails of one of the
freight cars and was dragged for
some distance before she let go and
fell nearly under the wheels but
rolled out and made another at
tempt to get on the train. This
time she made a grab at the plat
form of the calabOOse and
tried to jump on it. She
missed, however, and was hurled
between the rails behind the train,
one of the rails cutting a deep
cash in her forehead. She lay I'M
conscious, bleeding profusely, for
some time, until picked up by the
yard switchmen, who resuscitated
her by turning hose on her head.
She then walked off, very bloody
and very dizzy. None of the train
men thought to ask her name.

Fashion Drift.

An attractive little affair is a
sparkling bodice of jet laced with
jet string, which is made of fine
elastic, and can be made to fit al
most any figure.
The lovely rose tints to be used
in evening dress next season grow
more and more beautiful as they
are gradually brought out in fabrics
of silk, crepaline, brocade, yelling,
shot satin, and all the host of eX-
quisite diaphOnous textiles.
In making the new dress skirts,
tailors and dressmakers appear to
perform a bit of magic, for while
fitting the hips without. gore or
pleat, they suddenly expand and
flare outward at the feet, where
they measure many yards in cir
conference.
A new floral effect will be seen
in bridemaids' toilets at some of
the Easter weddings. 1t is bag
called the "Marie Antionette," and
is made of velvet and satin. 1t is
pulled, drawn in at the bottom
and filled with flowers. 1t hangs
from the arm by a long band of
velvet, edged with lace, having a
delicate trail Of flowers through
middle.
1t is believed by many leaders of
fashion that the present Outre
modes can not hold, they being too
hideOus to last even for one season.
English designers are talking of
the coming in of fashions set by
Anne of Austria, others believe
that EliZabethan rutfles and stOm-
achers will be worn. The slashed
sleeves of the NalOis period are al
ready in vogue, also the Anne of
Austria sleeve formed of three
puffs with wide unturned lace
ruffle.
One of the prettiest decorations
for debutantes is a flat bow of vel
vet to match the tone of the dress.
This is mounted on wire curved
to fit the head at the back, and is
either studded with small bril-
liants or has a diamond slide in the
center, or is fashioned of fine
wrought gold set with rubies, dia-
monds, turquoises or sapphires.
Jewelry is to be a decided feature
of the coming season, and quite
young girls will be permitted to
wear the gem they prefer.
Refers for girls of to 10 are
found in mixed cheViOts and plain
diagOnals. They are finished with
the same jaunty butterfly capes,
with velvet faced collars and cuffs.
\ pretty one in dark blue has col
lar, belt and pocket welts Of plaid
green and blue velvet. Another
in Russian blue and gray mixture
has a shirred collar. Red REFERS,
with black silk trimmings, are
stylish. Red hats are also shown
for little girls, in shades to cCrre-
spond with the cloth in their
Jackets.

The silly Slarg with Which Too Many
People Interlard Their Talk.
There is nothing in the world which
produces the sense sof mental nausea
more completely or is more certain to
turn the intellectual stomach than the
use of certain jocularities of speech
with which many people think fit to
adorn their conversation, says the Lon
don Spectator. The people who seem
to find il impossible TO speak of an un-
married man except as "a gay bach
elor," with whom the sea is always 1.-The
briny" or the herring pond" and
horse "a fiery stccd," who etcrnally talk
about y-go-to-mecting' clothes,
and who have such phrases as mo OK
ira charge" "agitate the tintinnabula-
tor" 1.-The noXious weed, the pipe of
peace" forty winks" and Drawing the
elements" forever on their lips, are ca
pable of producing a sense of disgust in
those who care to see language kept
bright and clean which is absolutely in
tolerable. 1t is difficult to say whether
these cant phrases-that is u perfectly
proper description of them - arc
more odious when used consciously
or unconsciously-that is by people
who believe them to be funny and in
tend that their hearers should consider
them funny, or by those who have
merely caught them up and repeat
them like parrots, and without any in
tention, good or bad. In our own opin-
ion the use of "common-form" ocular
itics is most offensive in those who
think of them as wit, though most pain
full in persons who use them uncon-
sciously and as mere methods Of es-
pressing their meaning. We feel that
those who try to force a laugh out of
such expressions as my downy couch"
or committing matrimony," who
squirm into smile as they ask if
there isn't room for little one or
who spcal, of ''jappanning their trotter-
cases." might fairly be shot at sight.

and heavily facctious family catches up

phrases as getting outside a square

Another lnstallment of Bough-
cots Hearing.
How the Prisoner Tried to Smear
Dust over a Bloody Spot
on His Clothing.

Another installment Of the Bougheot
preliminary hearing took place yester-
day and the evidence adduced was OF
the character already indicated in Re-
PUBLICAN accounts of the attempted
murder.
Ruff, the intended victim, was again
put on the stand and reiterated the
story OF his midnight struggle for lite.
He was followed by DR.. Cameron whose
evidence was OF an expert character
and confined to the nature OF Rutfs
wounds and the condition of Ruff when
he first saw him after the affair. The
next witness was G. A. Shaver. who
lives across the road from Ruff and to
whose house the latter ran alter eluding
his assailant. John Orme also testified,
but his testimony related only to the
appearance of Rufus house immediately
after the struggle.
Night Marshal Blankeuship, who ar
rested Boughcot on the morning follow
ing the attempted murder, told OF the
money found on the prisoner, and he
also described his bloody appearance.
Deputy Sheriff Henry King, who
locked Boughcot up. corroborated the
night marshal's story and said that he
noticed big bloody spot on one knee
of the prisoners trousers; he saw him
try to rub it off, but being unable to do
so, gathered up some dust and dirt
from the floor and tried to cover the
tell tale spot with it.
The prisoner wore the same trousers
in court, and as the deputy sheriff was
relating his story spectators noticed
the blood which neither dirt nor Vigor-
GUS rubbing would cover or efface.
On the conclusion of Deputy Kings
evidence the case was continued until
tomorrow afternoon.
There are yet three witnesses for the
territory, but what they will swear to is
not known.
Boughcot has already summoned a
cloud OF witnesses by whom he expects
to show that he could not have been at
Rufus place at the time the assault was
made.
Ruff is positive in his Identification
Of the prisoner. and all that is lacking
TO make the case conclusive is the
failure so far to discover the owner OF
the mare and colt seen hitched TO the
fence while the assault was being
made.

ENGLISH MILITARY BANDS.
They Are Too Small for Effective orches
tration.

They Are Too Small for Effective Orches-
tration.
The official establishment of band
for battalion of infantry consists of
band matter, sergeant, q corporal or
lance sergeant, twenty privatcs and
eight boys--thirty-onc in all. The cav
airy bands, according to All the Year
Round, are smaller still, twenty-three
in all, and these numbers are certainly
too small for effective orchestration.
But in practice the band is reinforced
by extra bandsmcn who have joined the
ranks in expectation of speedicr promo
ton and who play for the love of the
thing, in addition to ordinary duty.
The band master has his pay as warrant
officer of five shillings n day, with sew
cnty pounds n year from the band
funds, and his share of what the band
earns by private engagements, which
varies according to the station and the
reputation of the band. Tho band SER
gcant and corporal generally receive in
addition to their military pay month
ly allowance from the band fund. and
the band3mcn something in addition to
the soldiers daily shilling, while all
share in the private earning of the band
according to their degree. The gov
crnmcnt contributes to the band fund
as much as pays the bandmastcr's sal
airy, and it also provides the brass in
strumcnts. The other expenses of the
band fall upon the officers, and still
form a substantial deduction from their
