Gandied Lemon Peel.

As lemons are used drop the yellow rind into weak brine in a glass jar. When a dozen are thus pickled, they are freshened by putting them into celd water and letting them scald, changing the water once or twice to extract the salt. Boil them in the last water till they are thoroughly tender and drain. Then make sirup enough to cover them out of slightly more than a pound of sugar and pint of water. using always the same proportion of pint for pound. Cut the peel into pieces about half an inch square, and drop them into the boil ing sirup, which is allowed to cook slow ly till the peel looks translucent. Then keep them slowly sleeping till the sirup has almost dried out of the peel, spread on plates, sprinkle with more sugar and put in cool oven to complete the drying.

EDUCATIONAL MATTERS.
Spirited Discussion over the Appoint
 ment of Teacher.

Spirited Discussion Over the Appoint
 ment of a Teacher.
 Chairman J. A Mulcahy presided at the meeting of the board of education last night.
 The resignation of Miss Elizebeth c. Shanley, teacher at the Sperry street school, wasaccepted.
 The committee on teachers recona- mended the following: That Miss Nellie A. Brown be transferred from the Porter street school to the room in the Elm street school made vacant by the resignation of Miss Douglas; that Miss Margaret Cowan beappointed to the room in the L
 school made vacant by the resignation of Miss King; that Miss Jennie s. Barbour of the Clay street school be granted leave of absence during the present term; that Miss Marie Heringer be temporarily appointed to Miss Barbour's room; that Miss Rose Mcdonald be transferred from the Welton street school to the room in the Porter street school, vacated by Miss Brown; that Miss Catherine Charters be appointed to the room in the the Sperry street school with Miss Sarah Kilbride as assistant: that Miss Margaret Stevens be appointed to the assistants place in the Welton street school; that Miss Norah Mahoney be ap- pointed assistant in the Clay street school in place of Miss Heringer.
 After the report of the committee was read, Judge Cowel opened the discussion which followed by saying that Miss Mis- kell of Suffield ought to be appointed to one of the vacancies. Dr Hayes concurred with him, and said that some three years had passed since Miss Miskell received her certificate, and every Waterbury applicant who took the examination at that time had been provided for. He also informed the board that all Waterbury applicants who took the examination in 1892 were pro- vlded for and many why took the exami- nation in 1893. In view of these facts and as Miss Mlske1's application of last month was not considered by the committee on examination of teachers, he moved that Miss Miskell be appointed to one of the vacancies. The motion was supported by Messrs Hayes, Cowel and Pratte, and op- posed by the chairman and Dr McDonald on the ground that so long as we had sufficient applicants, of the right kind among the resident teachers, it was not prudent to go outside for any. Miss Mis- kell was appointed. Miss Stevens was ap- pointed assistant at the Clay street school, instead of Miss Mahoney. All the other recommendations were accepted. The ap- pointments will take effect next Monday The committee also recommended that the Bank street and Clay street schools be designated as training schools for teachers The recommendation was adopted.
 It was voted to change the name of the Long Hill school to the Locust street school and the East Gaylord to the East Main street school.
 A recommendation in regard to the pay roll was adopted.
 The committee on text books recom- mended the purchase of number of books and the recommendation was adopted.

New York X New;England Road Not Able
 to Pay.
 As was anticipated the interest on the first mortgage bonds of the New York x New England road was defaulted at Boston Monday.
 Many New Haven people have holdings in these securities and went without their money, as no bankers would anticipate the interest, as has been the custom with small holders.
 The railroad will have sixty days grace in which to pay the interest, and at the end of that time foreclosure proceedings will begin.
 The probable course of the Consolidated road in the matter is being awaited with keen interest. The general opinion seems to be that the Consolidated will reluctant ly acquire the New England rather than see it build up in a conservative manner as an opposition road.

How to Make Angel Apples.

Peel them and carefully remove the cores, so that the apples remain whole. Put them into an enameled pan just large enough to hold them, and cover them with sirup made of sugar and wa ter boiled together with few cloves, and coored pink with cochineal. Put the pan into a moderate oven, and let the apples stew very gently till they be- come soft and clear without breaking. Remove them from the pan very care fully, and boil up the sirup in which they were stewed till it thickens suffi- ciently, adding little more sugar if necessary When the apples are quite cold, arrange them on a dish, fill them with apricot jam and put on the top of each teaspoonful of cream or the same quantity of whipped cream; then pour the sirup around the apples.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE


Correspondents Protests Against the
 Appointment of Miss MiskeIl. To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 As taxpayer I desire to-enter protest against the appointment of Miss Miskell as a teacher in the public schools of this city. In doing so take the broad ground that while there are ladies in Waterbury capable of filling such position, and willing and anxious to dc, so, in justice they should be..appointed in preference to candidates from other towns. I hope the district committee will refuse to confirm the nomination on gen. eral principles.
