Fisher was brought before Chief Deitch
on a charge of cOwardice. An investiga-

indications, viii probably end in his dis
missal from the force. Last Monday
morning Mary Plcbst, years old, was
left in a burning house on Foraker avenue
by her panic stricken parents. Fisher
was present. Mrs. Plebst begged Fisher
to rescue her child. The room in which
the child lay was not on fire, but was
filled with smoke Fisher brutally re-
fused.
The frantic woman caught the police
man by the hand and dragged him to the
door. pointing out the childs room and
supplicating him To save her baby.
Fisher shrank from the danger, when u

mothers words, snatcned the lantern
from Fishers trembling hands crying,

shortly after to 5000. In August, $780,

and Comstock told me that the state in

of $1,000.
"Comstock said: Mind the 81 600 is not
in the shape of bribe. 1t is a subscrip-
ton to the society. / asked whether, if

Getting Around the Decree,

MINNEAPoLIs, Dec. 2S.-The journal
prints an interview with high dignitary
of the Roman Catholic church, who is
close to Archbishop Ireland, indicating
that the papal utterance as to the secret
societies is by no means mandatory. He
points out that in the cardinals letter the
words are used: This decree is therefore
commended to the archbishops and bisli-
ops of the United States, and may be by
these ordinaries carried into effect" A
similar phrase is used in Satolli's letter,
all of which the dignitary maintained
shows that the decree is really sort oil
feeler intended to test the sentiment OF
the church, and not to be carried out ex
cept as each bishop shall determine in his
own diocese.

FRIED ICE-CREAM.
Novelty Which Philadelphia Confec-
toner Makes Much or.

A Philadelphia firm makes a speciality
of fried icecream, which is pronounced
delicious by all who taste it. A small,
solid cake of the cream is enveloped in
thin sheet of pie crust and then
dipped in boiling lard or butter long
enough to cook the outside to crisp.
Served Immediately, the ice-cream is
found to be as solidly frozen as when
it was first prepared The process of
frying is so quickly accomplished, and
the pastry is so good protector, that
the heat has no chance to reach the
frozen cream.
Baked ice-cream which has me-
ringue top is another caprice of cooks
that is toothsome, though this tamper-
ing with delicacy that is perfection
when it is in its perfected, normal con-
dition seems unnecessary. Good ice
cream is as good as can be.
Speaking of the dish, woman re.
called the other day the fact that it
was first introduced at the national
capital by Mrs. Alexander Hamilton.
She used to tell with amusement Of
the delight with which President
jackson first tasted it, and how he
promptly decided to have ices at the
executive mansion. Accordingly
guests at the next reception were
treated to the frozen mystery, and af-
forded considerable fun to the initiated
by the reluctance with which they
tasted it. Those from the rural dis
tricts, especially, fist eyed it suspi-
ciously, and then melted each spoonful
with the breath before consuming it..
Their distrust was soon removed, how
ever, and plates were emptied with
great rapidity.-Cleveland Leader.

gether, draw across to the opposite
fastening and catch through, twist the
thread back around the first thread to
the middle of the space; then catch to
the joining of the daisies at one side,
twist back to the center and catch
across to the remaining joining. Con-
tinue in this manner, catching be-
tween each thread already described,
and twisting back to the center; from
the last or eighth space run the thread
over and under around the threads
where they cross about eight times, or
until sufficiently large center has
been formed. Fasten the thread un-
derneath and twist it out to the start
ing point over the thread which has
here, of necessity, been left single.
When these spider stitches have been
completed, the body of the article is
finished An appropriate edge may be
made of lace, or plain border may be
added by fold of muslin caught to
the edges of the daisies, and half
spider stitch added in the spaces. This
will have much the same effect as q
hem with drawn work, and while sim
pie and inexpensive is, at the same
time, desirable and tasteful finish.
