How a Man Cooks.

From the New York Tribune.
The absent-minded man is at it
again. He had been reading the
egg story published in these col
umns, and decided to try the trick.
The first thing to do was to boil
the egg. How many minutes? he
asked himself, and going to the
stove with the egg in one hand and
his watch in the other, he dropped
the latter in the hot water. Then
placing the egg on the table he sat
down to read till the time was up.
At the end of five or six minutes he
was surprised to find the egg lying
there before him, but suppOsing he
had himself taken it from the kettle
and cooled it, he proceeded to crack
and peelit. The consequences may
be imagined. Finally he missed
his watch. The house was searched
high and low, and it was not unit
the following morning that the
cook found it in the kettle, wher,
it had been boiling for hours.

WILL BE TRANSFERRED.
The State Not Likely to Prevent
the Transfer of the S. A. P.
to the Southern Pacific.

A telegram from Austin asserts
that it is likely in a short while that
a resolution will be offered in and
probably be adopted by the legis-
iature, instructing the attorney
general to file a suit of injunction
TO prevent the transfer of the Aran-
sas Pass railway to the Southern
Pacific.
A reporter for the LIGHT called
on assistant General Manager {
B. Peck, of the Arkansas Pass this
morning and asked him if he had
heard of the telegram and if he
thought the transfer would be
presented when he replied: 81
heard a report several days ago tC
the effect that it was likely that
such resolution might be presen'
ted in the Legislature, and that il
was possible that the injunction
suit might b. filed, but
do not believe even if such
should be the case that it will pre-
vent the transfer because in the
sale both parties have proceeded
strictly according to the law and
have acted on the very, best and
sOundpst legal advice. | believe
that when the details relevant tC
the sale and transfer have beer
definitely concluded and adopted
that there will be no prevention o
the accomplishment of the sale"

Lay out the gloves on clean ta-

mixture of finely powdered fullers
earth and alum in equal quanti-
ties. This will work a dirty color,
and should then be brushed off
then sprinkle the gloves with dry
bran and whiting. Lastly, dust
them well. Those who have glove
trees will do well to put their
gloves on to them, instead of lay
