HOUSEHOLD.
BEOTLED SALMON.

Cut two or three slices of salmon
about an inch thick; rub a little oil or
butter over them, and a dust of pepper
and salt. Put them on a hot CREASED
gridiron over a clear fire; turn them
occasionally until done, rubbing aljttle
butter over them each time they are
turned S-rve with maitre-d hotel
sauce.
BAKED OUNCES.
Take nice, sound ounces of uniform
size, wash well and place them in a
dripping pan. Fill the holes with but
ter and sugar, sprinkle a little sugar
over tops, and bake in a slow oven an
hour and o half, or until tender. Served
with cake or crackers that have been
buttered and Drowned in the oven,
they make q plain, but very good
dessert.
B~UTTERMILK OR SOUR MILK BISCUIT.
One pint Of buttermilk or sour milk,
one quart Of -four, piece of butter half
the size CT an egg rubbed into the -four,
one teaspo0nful soda dissolved in hot
water, a little salt. Rub the butter
and salt into the -four, and stir in the
milk. Stir the soda in with a knife
until we'll mixed. Add -four enough
to mould it smooth, Roll and cut as
tea biscuits. Bake in a quick oven.
-OzT,rO corD
Tomato soup with stock can be made
at a moments notice, and it is often a
great convenience to make soup in this
way: Cook one quart Of canned to-
matoes (or eight large sized ones) in
one pint Of water, add a slice Of onion,
a sprig Of parsley Gf handy, three
cloves and q teaspoonful of sugar; boil
all together fifteen minutes, then add
a scant te~aspoonfuI Of soda. When
the foaming stops, strain. Have a
quart of milk thickened with a heaping
tablespoonful Of cornstarch in double
boiler, boil ten minutes, add a piece of
butter the size of an egg, salt, and a
dash Of cayenne and the strained to-
matoes. Let heat through, but do not
allow it to boil, as it is very apt to
curdle.
REED BIRDS.
After the birds are plucked and
drawn put them in a dripping pan
with little Jumps Of butter under, be-
tween and over them. Let them cook
On one side q few minutes, then turn
them with a long handled spoon until
they are Drowned alike on both sides.
When done, put them on a hot platter.
Make rich gravy Of the contents Of
dripping pan and pour over them
another way is to take large Irish or
sweet potatoes, wash and scrape out a
part Of the inside; put the dressed bird
IN 1t with an oyster and a bit of fat
oacon or salt park. Tie the potatoes
together, or sew together with a coarse
needle and thread. When the potato
Is done the bird will be done also. A
very fancy way to send them to the
Vaole when they are done this way is
70 remove the thread that confines
Voem, and tie with q narrow tape.

OTTAWA, Ont, March 22.-There ia a bill
before the dominion parliament to inoor-

capitalists. with q capital OF 10,0O0 O0O
The object Of the company will be to build
a wide. deep channel, with the fewest pos

deep that the largest steam vessels can
steam through it full speed. There will be
but seven locks between Lake Erie and the
terminals, and but four between Mon
treal and New York, and the locks
would move two vessels at the same
time. one ascending and the other
descending. 1t is proposed TO obtain
charter from the state Of New

Rector Ahlwardt Fails Ingloriously
to Substantiate His Charges
Against Bismarck.
The Documents He Produced In
no Way Involved the Iron
Chancellor.
Nevertheless Ho Declares That He WNl
Yet Bring Sufficient Evidence to
support His Charges.

BERLIN, March 22.--There was large at
tendance and much excitement at the open
ing OF the ReichstaR in expectation that
Rector Ahlwardt would produce tho doou-
ments which he claimed would show fraud
ulent practices by Bismaok with Hebrew
financiers. by which the government had
been swindled out of enormous sums I'm
mediatoly on the opening of the body Ahl-
wardt arose and said he wished to lay a
few papers on The table. There were ex-
cited cries demanding that he furnish tho
house with all the documents. eleven in
number, which he was yesterday directed
10 furnish. He said that after Easter he
would produce the remaining documents.
After some debate committee was ap-
pointed to examine the papers already sub
m tilted.
Upon reassemblinR the house chairman
examined the documents submitted to
them. but found nothing to prove the as
sertions of Ahlwardt. Ahlwardt again
arose and reiterated his promise to pro-
duce. after Easter. tho other documents in
his possession. among which. he said. was q
letter from the president OF tho senate to a
foreign court, expressing thanks for money
sent TO the German governments. The
president of the reichstag forbade Ahlwardt
to refer to documents he had not produced
for the inspection of tho house.
Speeches were made by q number Of
members. all Of whom. without regard to
party, condemned Ahlwnrdt for the charges
he made with no apparent proof to support
the assertions. Ahlwardt protested that
the documents inspected by the committee
would be meapinRless until the arrival of
others from Leipseio. Throughout the
whole scene the greatest excitement pre-
vailed. and members showed by every &C
ton after tho report of the committee
that they placed not the slightest conf
denoe in the grave charges made by ALL
wardt. There is intense interest among the
people in tue proceedings of the reichstag.
Thousands gathered before the building
and clamored for information az to the
progress of debate.
Ahlwardt was received with suoh con-
tempt as has not before been shown by one
deputy toward another in parliamentary
history. A statement was made this oven
ing Of the result of the examination of the
Ahlwardt documents. They are simply re-
celpts given TO the Observation-Disclosures, of
which DIR. Miguel was director. by the Rou-
manian railway company. The Diskonto-
gesellschaft is q private concern. and in it's
dealings with the railway was trying to
save it from financial ruin. The reichstaR
adjourned until April l3.

government, applied to the senate to-day
TO be relieved Of his dutos Oh the com mis-

OXFORD BREAKS THE RECORD.

The Great Enslish College Event Taken in
i Very Fast Time.
LONDON, March 22.-To-day for the
fiftisth time the crews OF Oxford and Cam
bridge sat in shells on the Thames, rowed
for dear life. and Oxford won their twety
seventh victory. The course was the his
toric stretch between Putney bridge and
Martlake. four and quarter miles. Al
Putney bridge before the race began rows
of people lined the parapet. On the wide
foreshore in front of ths rowing club
houses great crowd gathered. Each side
OF the river was lined with tugs, barges,
wherries, all manner of craft accommodate
ing siRhtseers. Ashore and afloat there
was gay show OF bunting. Along the
course balconies we're filled with Raily
dressed ladies.
The start took place from the stone road
bridge at Putney. Cambridge won the toss
and chose the Surrey side. The tide was
running, strongly and there was slight
wind. All being in readiness tho official
starter fired pistol. and amid the shouts
OF admirers. and hooting. screaming steam

Yells and shouts of encouragement to
both crews arose all along the course as the
boats came in sight and as the passed craft
OF every description to be seen on the
Thames closed in behind and crowded
after. At Casper's boat house Cambridge
was leading by three feet. In the last half
of the race Oxford forged ahead. At the
three-quarters point Oxford was six feet in
advance. She lead by yard at Chiswick,
about two and ono-half miles from tie

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Fivo members
OF the Missouri delegation in congress
called at the postofIice depar tment to-day

General Bisaell. The delegation desired
some expression from Gen. Bissell az to
what weight would be given to recommen-
dations of members of congress in the ap-
pQintment OF postmasters. 1t has been
repeatedly stated in the newspapers that
congressional influence was to go for moth
ing. Bisaell listened attsntively to all that
was said. but did not think he could Justly
be held responsible for what had been pub
lished i'll the newspapers. Bissell said he
understood .the statement had been pub
lished that no women are to be appointed
to postmasterships, and newspaper
mon are also to be Disseminated
against. Neither OF these stories is
true. and he regretted their
publication. He bade the delegation good
day and hoped they would como and see
him whenever they had anything to aay in
regard to appointments in his department,
and he called attention to the fact that
thus far not single postmaster has been
appointed who had not tho Endorsement Of
his member OF congress. He thought. how
ever. the question OF candidates should, in
a measure at least, be decided by ths poo
Pile of the locality. What he most desired
was that he should have the benefit Of the
advice of tho people as we'll as that of their
representatives. in congress. No one would
in any sense be ignored and 1t is folly to
suppose the assistance, advice and reco M
mendations Of mon of such high character
