SUBSTITUTES FOR MEAT.
A. Prepared by Intelligent But Econom-
ical ForeiRncrs.

A prepared BY Inteulgent but EcOnoHn-
ical Foreigners.
Abroad, in France, and Italy, and
Switzerland, at the pensions where
meat is a luxury and the practice Of
intelligent economy fine art, great
mounds Of macaroni, stewed with to-
matoes, are served as a separate
course. delicious and satisfying. We
Americans rarely dream Of eating
things in such fashion as they are
cooked and served in those countries,
but, as the New York Press says, so
much the worse for us! Certainly
there is no occasion for the over
abundant use of meat, especially in
hot weather.
As matter Of fact, It Is much
easier for cook to serve steak or
some chops than to prepare a SUBJ
stitute, but nevertheless many can be
prepared Of simple, small-cost ma
terials.
To make ILLUSION chops you need
two or three cupfuls of mashed pota-
toes, quite free from Jumps, moistened
with little hot milk and well seasoned
with butter, pepper, and salt. You
will need also two small, round onions,
those called buttons; mince these
very fine and fry brown in spoonful
of butter. You will also mince fine
six small carrots, boiled until tender,
and four small boiled turnips, and If
you have some fine, firm white cab
bage or some bits of cold boiled
cauliflower add them; season with
little finely cut parsley, a tiny pinch
Of grated nutmeg. salt, and red
pepper corn, or bit of the long scar
let pod.
Now mix all well with tho mashed
potatoes; mold with the hands into
dainty chop shapes, dip into beaten
egg and then in sifted cracker dust,
and fry in very hot butter. Drippings
will answer, but there must be
enough Of it to immerse the outlets
just as you do oysters or Saratoga
chips, and it must be boiling when the
chops go into it.
Let them fry a fine brown. You
have had chop bones scraped clean in
a hot oven meantime, and now stick
one daintily in each chop. Lay them
on coarse brown paper in the mouth of
the oven, in order that every particle
Of grease may be absorbed. Then
serve Immediately on a very hot dish;
garnish them with crisped parsley. In
reality these chops both look and taste
very much like the Dreaded outlets one
often orders but seldom gets perfectly

For many years it has been the custom
for the more explosive Partisan edit
orS to keep ghost" round the corner.
Generally, says the Chicago Herald,
the ghost is slipping absinthe at the
nearest cafe. But he is the titular
editor. And when the paper falls foul
of the authorities and the editor has to
go to jail it is the ghost round the cor
ner that goes. The scheme is conven-
lent. Justice is satisfied and the paper
comes out as usual. There is an estab-
lished bureau in the Reu Druot, with
register and a tariff, for the supply
of doubles" for wealthy citizens who
are averse to hard labor. 1t does a
very thriving business and does not
limit its resources to catering solely
for the requirements of newspaper
men. Any gay young dude who falls
foul of the police can, by little ju-
dicious squaring, send round to the
bureau for substitute, who, for one
dollar day, payable in advance. will
take his place in prison and do the al
lotted time melted out for venal
otfenses. For higher grades OF punish
ment the tariff is little more and
comprises an extra sum of ten
dollars for new suit of clothes upon
release from Jail.

HOLMES COUNTRY LIFE.
Pittsfeld. His Country Estate, Was thu
BeQuest Of Ancestors.


BeQuest Of Ancestors.
II was curious to know about DR..
Holmes experience of country life, he
knows all natures processes so WE'LL"
writes Edward Everett Hale in Mo
Clure's Magazine. $50 he told me bow
it happened that he went to Pittsfield.
1t seems that a century and half ago
his ancestor, Jacob Wendell, had a
royal grant for the whole township
there, with some small exceptions, per-
haps. The place was at first called
Pontoosoc, then Wendelltown, and
only afterward got the name of Pitts
field from William Pitt. One part of
the Wendell property descended to DR..
Holmes mother. When he had once
seen it he was struck with it's beauty
and fitness for a country home, and
asked her that he might have it for his
own. 1t was there that he built
house in which he lived for eight or
nine years. He said that the Housa-
tonic winds backwards and forwards
through it, SO that to go from one end
of his estate to the other in straight
line required the crossing it seven
times. Here his children grew up, and
he and they were enlivcned anew every
year by long summer days there.
''He was most interesting and ami
mated as he spoke of the vigor of life
and work and poetical composition
which come from being in the open air
and living in the country. He wrote,
at the request of the neighborhood, his
poem of The Ploughman,' to be read
at cattle show in Pittsield. And
when l came to read it afterwards I
said Here it is! Here is open air life,
here is what breathing the mountain
air and living in the midst of of nature
does for a man. And l want to read
you now piece of that poem, because
it contained prophecy, And while
he was looking for the verses, he said,
in the vein of the Autocrat: Nobody
knows but a man S self how many good
things he has DONE"

THE LEGENDARY ADAM AND EVE.
Some Curious Particulars Furnished BY
Jewish Writers.

Some Curious Particulars Furnished BY
Jewish Writers.
To the Scriptural account of the Gre
alton and fall of Adam and Eve the
Jewish writer's Of the Talmud have
added many curious particulars. Ac-
cording to these myth-mongers, says
the st. Louis fRepublic, Adam, when
first created, was GRANT of giants"
as far as stature goes-his head reach
ing into the heavens and his counte-
nance outshining the sun in all its
spiendor. In one place they tell Us
that 1.-The very angels stood in awe of
the man which God had created, and
all creatures fastened to worship
him" Then the Lord, in order to give
the angels some idea of his power,
caused deep sleep TO come over Adam,
and, while he was in comatose condi-
ton, removed portion of every limb
and bone! The first man thus lost a
part of his colossal stature, yet he re-
manned perfect and complete. Next,
the first "helpmeet" for the lord of
creation was created in the person of
Lilith. who forsooI Adam to become
the mistress of the air and the moth
err of demons" After the departure OF
Lilith, Eve was created and married
to Adam in the presence of Jehovah
and the angels. the sun, moon and stars
dancing together to the angelic music
rendered.
Then the supreme happiness Of the
human pair excited the envy of even
the angels, and the seraph Samulael
tempted them and finally succeeded in
bringing about their fall from inno-
cence. According to the Koran, all
the angels paid homage to Adam ex-
cept Eblis, who, on account of his re-
tusal so to do, was expelled from Para
disc. To crafty a spirit of revenge,
Eblis loitered about the gates of the
garden Matching discord, until at las.
he succeeded in separating the first
couple whom God had joined togeth-

THE COURSE OF CONGRESS.

We present our readers this morn
ing with a full account OF the pro-
ceedings of Congress in regard to the
hawaiian matter. The gist of the
matter is briefly as follows: AS soon
as the Presidents message had been
read, before the transaction OF any
other business, Senator Hoar intro
dueed a resolution calling on the
President for the documents, cores
pondence and instructions. The reso-
luton, at first feebly resisted by one
or two Administration Senators, was
finally passed without division. Repre-
sentative Hit, of Illinois, introduced q
similar resolution in the House, which
was also adopted. Senator Hoar intro
duced few days later a second resolu-
ton, calling in question the legality
OF Mr.. Blount's appointment. On this
resolution final action had not been
taken at the time of the Alameda
sailing from San Francisco.
The debate on both of the Senate
resolutions was extremely spirited
On the part of the opponents OF
the Administration, and correspond
ingly lame on the part of its apollo
gists. The former indicted sweepingly
the whole Cleveland Gresham policy;
the latter did not attempt to support
any restoration, and disclaimed the
idea that the Administration contem-
plated, or had at any previous time
contemplated, the use of any force
against the Hawaiian Government.
The attitude of the Senate on this
question, therefore, was made clear
by the debate. 1t is an attitude of un-
compromising hostility to any forcible
Intervention in Hawaiian affairs. The
friends of Blount and the apologists of
Cleveland admit that the Provisional
Government must be let alone.
Let no one imagine that the Senate
in its debate on these resolutions II "a
moving in the dark, Pie full text of
Blounts inter6Inable report was in
the hanns of every Senator, and had
DeH - for two weeks before the opening
of Congress. The side of the Admin
istration had been presented and the
debate in the Senate which calls
halt in Mr.. Cleveland's usurpations is
the verdict of men who know Mr..
Cleveland's case, or to speak more &C
curately, who know that he has none.

A PAIR OF THEM.

The New York Sun haS hawaiian
poetry pretty constantly on tap, and
we present gu readers this morning
WIN a ysy sparkling draft. 1t con-
facetious form, criticism on
'he Course Of Mr.. Cleveland, which is
scathing as it is deserved. Mr.. Cleve-
Ind is deeply infected with the fallacy
which identifies his own passing per-
sonaIity with the American State.
The fallacy in a Republican is
strange.
There is a woman in this city who
Is also victim of Cleveland's disease.
Like him, she Identifies herself with
the Government. She mistook her
personal idiosincracies for the general
will; she attempted to override law
and Constitution, set aside the public
order and the civilization which
created it, and restore the barbarous
era of personal rule. The attempt was
q costly one. 1t made out of Queen
Liliuokalani plain Mrs. Dominis.
Is it any wonder that the autocrat
in Washington should sympathize
with the autocrat in Hawaii ? These
kindred spirits seem to have known
each other by faith, though not by
sight, across continent and an ocean.
The cartoons which represent Cleve-
land and Liliuoklani clasped in a
paternal embrace are only way of
making plain to the eye what is plain,
bald fact.

THE Crisis PASSED.

From Advertiser Extra, Dec. %
The intelligence which arrived
by the Alameda this morning is
of most encouraging character.
The Hawaiian question has prac-
tically passed out of the Presidents
control, and Mr.. Cleveland has
Congress on his hands. He sill
find Congress a heavier load to
carry than Hawaii, and heaven
knows that he has found Hawaii
heavy enough. Both houses of
Congress have passed resolutions
calling for the papers in the Ha-
waiian matter, and there is a clear
intention on the part of Congress
men to sift the conduct Of the Pre-
sident to the bottom. No Demo
crat has raised his voice in either
House in favor of the coercion ofthe
Provisional Government of Ha-
wall, and 1t Is pretty safe to
assume that no such voice will
be heard. Congress both democra-
tic and republican is opposed to any
armed interference with the Provi-
sional Government, and the ques-
ton is in the hands of Congress.
This means that no force will be
used by the United States against
Hawaii, and this means that the
Queen will never be restored.
The courageous attitude of the
Provisional Government, main
tanned in the face of great diff
culties and great Encouragement,
is justified of the event and
is achieving Jig end. The Con-
IN of the United States
stands over this government. It's
sanctions will not be violated nor
its authority disregarded, and Ha-
wall is safe.

THE CLEVELAND FIASCO.

" There are many indications that
the case of Hawaii has been sharp
thorn in Mr.. CleveIand's side. 1t has
not got any less troublesome as the
weary months have rolled by. Mr..
Cleveland has "shillyshallied" for
seven months. He wanted to get rid
of the Provisional Government, but
he did not dare to restore the ex-queen.
He wanted to discredit the Harrison
Administration but he wanted, natur-
ally, to do it without discrediting his
own still more. He wanted, possibly,
to accommodate his powerful friends
of the Sugar Trust, but he wanted of
course to accommodate them for rea-
sons of state, not for private reasons.
Like Micawber, he waited for some
thing to turn up, but nothing did. He
looked to see the Provisional Govern
ment grow weak, but it grew strong
he expected to see it fall, and it rose
instead. Was ever man so vexed,
harassed and thwarted by an unruly
and accommodating fate?
Finally, Mr.. Cleveland concluded
that fate would do nothing for him,
and that he must do something for
himself. So he intrigued against
Congress and the people, and pre-
pared his great stroke, his browning
outrage. He told Congress he had
nothing to communicate to them, and
Congress went home. Then he sent
Minister to Honolulu, to inform the
Provisional Government that it was
Grover Cleveland's will, and there
fore their duty, that they should step
down and out. And then he leaned
back and contemplated with beatific
satisfaction this simple but mastery
solution of the Hawaiian question.
The Provisional Government, how
ever, did not identify its rights with
Mr.. Cleveland's will. 1t failed to step
down and out. 1t was not bubble
for Mr.. Cleveland to prick. 1t did not
derive It's existence from the breath of
his favor, and it had the presumption
to continue in being after the light of
his countenance was withdrawn. The
outcome did not harmonic with the
roseate authorizations of the great man
and his flatterers, and instead of
grateful queen, Mr.. Cleveland found
that he had an outraged Congress and
an outraged people on his hands.
Was ever the head of a great nation
placed in q more ignominious plight?
Was ever a fiasco more complete or
more humiliating?
