CRIMINAL CARELEssNEss.

a new peril from careless management
on the Elevated Railroads was made
apparent last Sunday in Brooklyn. A
young girl. fourteen years Of age, whose
parents live near the gates OF Cypress
Hills Cemetery, the terminus of the
East New York line OF the Union Ele-
waited Railroad Company. was taking
a walk after having been confirmed,
when pail full of red-hot ashes,
dumped from an engine, fell around
her, set fire to her light dress. and she
was burned to death.
This Is the grossest and most criminal
carlessness. 1t is n direct violation OF
the law. Yet people living in the neigh
borhood of the calamity assert that II
Is a common occurrence. the dumping OF
hot ashes in the road. and one man. a
saloon-keeper. shows where a red-hot
iron from the road was driven through
one of the windows of his place and
burned n'hole In the floor.
The Company ought to be made to
pay damages to the full limit OF the
law for the girls DEATH and to be prose
cuted for Its violation Of the law.

The marriage Of Miss Bessie Cleveland,
the actress. and DR.. John A. Burke, Of

with the Dufr Opera Company She was
afterwards with Rice's "EvangeliEc,"

The Dry Shampoo.

Many women who have luxurious
tresses and who take cold easily are
obliged to forego washing them as often
as they would like because Of the diffi-
Guilty of getting them dry quickly. For
such a dry shampoo is the next best
thing, and, IL carefully and thoroughly
done, It removes the accumulated dust
and dandruff almost as we'll as washing
The hair should be shaken loosely out
over the shoulders, and the head manip-
ulated with the fingers till all foreign
matter Is we'll loosened and scattered
through the hair. which should then be
parted in different places all over the
head, and the parts cleansed with a
stiff little brush. after which the entire
head and hair should be very thoroughly
brushed in sections till the dandruff is
brushed out as much as possible, when
some good hair tonic or scalp cleanser
may be rubbed on and the snarls engen-
dered by the whole process gently comb
ed out and the ends OF the hair clipped.
This last should always be done once a
month to promote the growth of the
hair.

CALLED TO ACCOUNT.

The Board OF Estimate and Apportion
ment has at last taken steps to ascertain
what use has been made OF the one
million dollar special relief fund the Park
Commission was authorized to spend last
Winter to give employment to the idle
workingmen and keep their families from
starvation. The Park Commissioners are
summoned to attend before the Board to-
morrow to give an account Of their trust,
and to show how much OF the money has
been spent for the object for which It
was intended and how much remains.
Comptroller Fitch very properly con-
tends that II any OF this special appro-
priation Is left 1t should not be expended
by the Fark Department at all. 1t was
given for n certain specified purpose, and
II the necessity has passed, and any OF
the fund remains. no one, has q right to
devote II to another and different pur-
pose.
1.-THE Evening World" recently showed
that tho Park Departments regular ap-
preparation for this year. SIN 1872, Is 30
per cent. higher than In 1884. II to this
regular appropriation the one million dol
lar special fund Is added the Increase In
ten years will be nearly $50 per cent.
Not a dollar of the remainder Of the
million dollar special appropriation
should be allowed to be spent by the
Park Commissioners on fishy contracts.
1t is In excess of their regular appropria-
tion. and Its expenditure for general park
purposes Is illegal.

A BLUE RIBBON SALARY.

The statement is now published that
one OF the heirs of the Crocker millions
has received $400,000 for letting liquor
alone for Ave years, and that II he gives
the flowing bowl n wide berth for five
years longer he will receive $i00 600
more. This salaried teetotaler Is n
young man. He gets more money per
year fer keeping sober than the Presi-
dent OF the United States does for
keeping the ship OF State anoat. Even
the gorgeous salary OF the President OF
life insurance company Is somewhat
dimmed by the lustre OF his stipend.
Eighty thousand dollars year for
drinking soda-water and sarsaparilla
and snubbing the demon rum Is very
nice job. and every young man ought tc
be anxious for one like II. But there are
not many families able to keep a high.
salaried refrainer from disgraceful acts
on its payroll. Then there are younl
men who couldn't or wouldn't let whis
key alone for eighty millions year. The
only pang which this Crocker story will
give them Is that the young man who
accepts 3S0,000 a year for keeping sobel
is losing lot Of fun all the while.

SOur-Milk Cakes.

In Summer time milk frequently turns
" left over from one day to another. A
thriftless housekeeper will throw IL
away, but a thrifty one will use II,
knowing that for many purposes 1t Is
better than sweet. making cakes and
otter things lighter. Pancakes, for in
stance, are usually a welcome addition
to the sweets at either lunch or dinner,
particularly when there are unexpected
guests. Made in the following way they
are delicious: Put twelve dessertfCls Of
-four. a saltspoonful OF sale and a tea
spoonful of moist sugar in bowl. Mix
wei, UP and add su:nsent sour milk by
degrees to make a CnOoth hatter--not
quite half a pint. Then pour 1t into q
jug and beat up two eggs in the basin:
pour this into the batter and add a ta-
blespoonful of baking powder. Meas
urc teacupful for pancake and
bake at one, taking care that the
friture is as hot as possible. II 1t ID
not, the batter will con5cjdently be
thick. Sprinkle castor sugar ever and
roll up as each is baked. Surround with
slices Of lemon.

The CauIinOwer.

Every one does not know how to prop
erly boil caulinower. 1t is commonly
overlooked and imperfectly drained.
which gives 1t a dishwatery flavor ma
ture never intended 1t to have. The
safest plan is to tie It In piece of
coarse tarlatan and lay 1t, flower upper
most, ir plenty Of boiling water. a
tablespoonful of salt to two quarts Of
water. The latter must be boiling very
rapidly when the caulihower goes In |;
cover until boiling recommences and
then remove the cover and keep II
boiling fast until tender. II the same
rule be observed with cabbage It may
be boiled without filling the house with
the usual vulgar odor which deters
many people from enjoying 4 really ex-
cellent vegetable.

Tulle IL the Rare.

The prominence of tulle is the sensa-
ton Of the season. Everything French
Is trimmed with tulle. and colored tulle
is as fashionable as white. A hat was
seen uptown wreathed In punches Of
tulle. green and brown, in the midst Of
which were perched a couple of rides
cent plumaged birds, as II among
leaves, and outside Of them. on the rim
of the hat. a wreath of Ivy. But tulle Is
not only worn on hats. There are tulle
collars. worn with bow and a paste
buckle. And tulle bodice strings instead
Of a sash. Tulle belongs by right to the
young and pretty. A white sailor hat,
with two immense tulle rosettes and an
oblong paste buckle between. and a
black and white aigrette between, Is de-
signed for the fairest Of the fair.
