PREPARING TERRAPIN.
A Recipe Which Is Recon- I'M nded by
an Eastern ShOreman.

AS to the killing and cooking of terrapin,
an Eastern Shoreman to the manner born
writes to The Star follows: The killing
is a work of art. 1t being a necessity that
the terrapin should bleed before boiling,
and as the vision is most acute, great in
genuity is required when warned of
danger the head il instnntaneously drawn
into the shell-the 'hecib is elastic. and has
the power of completely absorbing the
head. Thus patience and heat alone will
accomplish the rssuIt.r The cook stands
alert behind, with raised fork or spit to
catch the favorable moment when the in
tense heat renders it longer impossible to
defend its life-the hotter the stove the
sooner will this be, done. I have seen the
feet almost burned off first. AS soon as
the head protrudes. ever SO little. give the
fatal stab with one hand, and cut the
throat with the other. Let 1t bleed, then
throw into boiling water and remain until
the lower shell Is easily removed. Every
part of the terrapin Is edible except the
sand bag and gall. and a little of the gall
adds to the flavor. The liver should not he
cut up. but preserved as whole as possible.
Be careful of the green fat, of which there
are only two or three pieces. but which
of itself Is worth the price of the terrapln,
however costly 1t may be- No food of the
gods could ever vie with 1t. In preparing
for the stew let the quarters be whole-no
mincing: no spice; no mustard: no hens
eggs: only plenty of cayenne pepper. a
little salt. butter ad libitum. and a pint
OF thick cream to each terrapin; more if
large and full of eggs, which should never
be broken. except with the mouth of the
eptcure. even when old enough for the
white cuticle to have formed. Then dust a
little flour from a dredge box to give con-
sistency to the dressing; let 1t barely come
to a boil once, and boici! the daintiest dish
that mortal could invite. Wine should not
be used with cream; one or the other. never
both; no nutmeg; nothing to destroy the
fine flavor and aroma which has no COM
pare. The cooking of terrapin with pastry
should be considered. II not a high crime at
least misdemeanor. under the law; but
this Is only done by those who would doubt
less prefer meat and green's" II also
caught in their seiHes. Let all who can
afford SIS a dozen for terrapin this winter
use the foregoing recipe, and they will
never regret the cost.

NEBRASKA DEMOCRATS.
They Split ON Silver and Fusion and
Two Tickets We're Nominated.

any SPAAs Oh silver anu usIoh ana
Two Tickets Were Nominated.
The democratic state convention of Ne
braska "Wednesday night split on the ques-
ton OF fusion with the populists. The
fusionists nominated this ticket:
Governor, Judge Holcomb; lieutenant gov
ernor. J. N. Gattin; secretary of state, F.
Il. Ellick; treasurer, c. A. Linkhard; attor-
Eey general, ID. S. Carrier; auditor, j. G..
Hillman; commissioner of public lands and
buildings, S. J. Kent; superintendent of
public instruction, w. A. Jones. Holcomb.
Gaffln. Carrier. Kent and Jones are populist
nominees. The regular convention then ad-
journed.
The boilers yesterday reorganized into a
separate convention and nominated the fol-
lowing as straight democratic ticket: For
governor. =. ID. Sturdevant: lieutenant gov
ernor, X. f. Dunphy; secretary of state, ID.
I. Rolfa; auditor, Otta Bauman; treasurer.
Luke Dridenthal: attorney general, John II.
Ames; commissioner of public lands and
buildings. Jacob Bigler: superin tendent pub
lie instruction. Milton Doolittle.
The boilers adopted platform favoring a
gold basis, but I'm other respects similar to
that of the fusionistS, which demands the
free coinage of silver.
The straightout democrats chartered a
special train for Lincoln and filed their
ticket with the secretary of state in advance
Of the fusionists. Under the Australian
ballot there can only be one democratic"
ticket voted for and the fusion ticket will
have to be filled by petition" unless the
action of the day Is overrued by the courts.

Time Of Day I'm NcPaul.

There are no public schools in Nepaul.
The sons Of princes and nobles-even our
young king. while he is yet only a boy
are taught at home by the guru, or house
hold priest, who is supposed to be also a
pundit, very learned man. Later the
young men of rank are sent 10 Patna
Benares, or Calcutta, where they learn TO
speak English and TO wear English clothes
and to tell the time of day by an English
clock; for in Nepaul time is measured by
means of a copper vessel, with small hole
in the bottom, set afioat on a tank or pool
Sixty times day this kettle fills and
sinks. and every time it sinks a gong is
struck; SO that the day is divided into sixty
.gongs'' or bells" as sailors reckon time
aboard ship. The poor Bhootiya shepherds
or the Newar women who make pottery in
the fields say that the day is begun when
they can count the tiles on the roof of a
house. or when they can see the hairs on
the back of a mans hand by holding it
up against the light.

CRICKET At MANNHEIM.
PhAladelphians Determined to Re-
trieve Their Late Defeat.

PhAl0d e phfanS Determined to Re-
trieve Their Late Defeat.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. September 2s.-
The eleven gentlemen Of Philadelphia who
stepped out on the grassy turf at Mannheim
this morning for their second international
cricket contest with Lord Hawkes. English
team were the most resolute-looking lot of
cricketers who ever bowled ball or welded
bat. They seemed determined to wipe out
the ignominy of their recent defeat at the
hands of the Britons. They realized that
they started In last weeks match with a
surplus of confidence and a deficit of stay
ing power, and the rude shock with which
they were enlightened on that occasion
served to fortify them today with an extra
supply of caution.
Ever since the last match they, as we'll
as their English cousins, have been doing
hard work at practice on the Mannheim
field, which is generally conceded to be bet
ter than that at Haverford.
Only one change had been made in the
makeup of the American team since last
weeks play, Harry l. Brown being sub
stituted for w. w. Noble.
From a social standpoint this match is
expected to be the most notable event of
the season The space for coaches was
filled today by well-known whips and ev-
cry seat in the grand stand has been sold
Even the roof of the grand stand, which
has never before been used, has been util-
lied fer this occasion.
The coin was tossed at Ills, and Lord
FL. ykes luck did not desert him. He called
1t correctly and elected to bat first
Play began at 80. When play was
stopped for lunch at 80 the Engiishmen
mad made eighty runs. Lord Hawke and
Lucas were not out. The former has made
ten runs and the latter thirty-two.

flames spread in northerly direction along
Wharf street, destroying the Fire Hall, the
Nanaimo Hotel, c. E. Stevensons dry
goods store and five small frame buildings
That the newer part of the town was not
completely wiped out was due to the alb
senCe of wind and to the heroic work of the
volunteer lire brigade.

DOCTORS AND THEIR Fees.
The Profession Ii Not One In which
Large Fortunes Are Often Made.

The Profession Ii Not One in which
Large Fortunes Are OFTEN Made.
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Although 1 never practiced medicine"
said Isaac l.. Morrison of New York, who
was at the Lindell yesterday, II walked the
hospitals when young. and believe that 1
am still entitled to add the letters NJ. d. to
my name. While serving as assistant ply
stefan at one of the city hospitals of New
York came to the conclusion that there
was no money in medicine for me, and &C.
cordingly transferred my attention to COM
nierce. Like good many other young men
l was attracted to the profession by hear
ing of fees of $1,000 and upward being paid
for operations which only occupied a few
minutes. When, however. l came to look
into the question l modified my views As
matter of fact, no doctor, as far as is
known. has ever acquired fortune much
in excess of $l,JOO,OOO. and statisticians say
that there are not ten millionaire physi-
ci6ns in the world. DR.. Biundelt, the cele-
brated English doctor, died worth ST. 800, 900
and Sir William Gull. the man who saved
the life OF the Prince of Wales, earned
enough to leave about similar sum. There
Is no other case on record that have ever
heard OF of a man in the profession acouir-
Ing fortune of this magnitude, and IL
must also be understood. as nine -tenths of
successful physicians die in harness. they
seldom spend a large proportion of their in
come and hence get very little practical adj
vantage from the very large fees sometimes
heard Of *

SOUTH AMERICA SATISFIED
Venezuela. Colombia and Haiti Are Pleased
With the Tariff Bill.
by It's Provisions They Arc Relieved
of the RctaliatOry Policy Adopted
by President Harrison.

The representatives of three Of the re-
pubhcs, Venezuela, Colombia and Haiti,
take considerable satisfaction out of the
fact that while the new tariff law in this
country abrogates the reciprocity treaties
between this country and Brazil, Nicaragua.
Salvador, Guatemala and other countries it
has the reverse effect as to them, as it does
away with the retaliatory policy which
President Harrison announced by proclama-
ton against Colombia. Venezuela and Haiti.
This proclamation was issued March IL,
1s"2, because the three countries had not,
up TO that time, entered into reciprocity ar
rangements. 1t suspended the free list on
sugar. coffee, hides and molasseS, and eS-
tablished duty of 3 cents per pound on
coffee, l :i-S to = cents per pound on sugar.
! cents per gallon on molasseS and IL
cents per pound on hides.
Effects Upon Exports.
These rates have since applied to only
these three southern republics, while their
neighboring republics enjoyed free entrance
to this country on these goods. 1t had the
effect of cutting off most of the exports of
the three countries of the United States, but
1t did not result in forcing them to yield to
a reciprocity agreement. The Haytian sales
to this country reached $2.2OOOOO before the
retaliation. but after it they fell to $1,000.
The Colombian exports fell from $2,OOO.OOO
to S1,3Oo.oOO. The Venezuela exports fell
from $lO.OOO,OO to $i,UOU,OOO.
Heavy Trade VIII Result.
1t practically cut off these countries from
shipping coffee. sugar and hides to this
country, as they could not pay the duties
and compete successfully with their neigh
bors, who paid no duties. This discrimna-
ton Is now removed, and Colombia, Venez-
ueia and Haiti are restored to the same pO-
sition occupied by other southern repub-
lies. 1t promises to revive the former eX-
tensiv1 trade these countries had with the
United States. and it also terminates the
irritatiOns that have arisen out of the re-
taliation and he unsuccessful efforts to
negotiate reciprocity treaties.
