THE SEASON,
Recipes for Preparing the Delicious
Edible Fungi.

huADAc uNeh .
In July, August and September the mush-
room shows itself upon the face of the earth.
So do various poisonous fungi. And it is
well to be extremely careful in mushroom
hunting to get the healthy variety.
Good mushrooms spring up in open fields
and commons generally after a heavy dew
or low lying fog. Their color Is not nearly
so beautiful as that of their poisonous
brethren. They are a dirty white above
and a salmon pink on the under side, chang
ing to brown as soon as gathered.
Cook a peeled white onion in the same pot
with your mushrooms, and if they do not
than black you may eat them with a feeling
of tolerable security.
To stew mushrooms, choose the button
topped ones; wipe clean with a wet flannel
cloth. The stalks should be cut. Cover in a
porcelain kettle with cold water, and stew
for about a quarter of an hour. Add a little
salt and a tablespoon of butter, divided into
bits and rolled in butter. Boil two or three
minutes. Stir in half a cup of cream beaten
up with an egg; stir a minute and stew.
To bake them, cut off the stalks of nearly
all, and wipe the skins. Arrange in a bak-
ing dish, sprinkle with pepper, salt and a
little mace. Put a little lump of butter on
each; bake for half IN hour, basting with
butter and water every now and then. Serve
in the same dish, with maitre d'hotel sauce.
To broil mushrooms, cut the stems close,
score the under sides, put in a deep dish and
pour melted butter over them. Salt and
pepper them, and let them lie in the butter
an hour. Then broil over a clear, hot fire.
Serve hot with lemon.

SHERLOCK HOLMES.
Widespread Grief at the sudden De-
mise of This Great Man.

~
mise of This Great Man.
Most readers of Harper's Weekly will nave
learned ere this of the lamentable and I'M
timely taking off of their old friend, Mr..
Sherlock Holmes. The story has been told
in detail in the daily press. 1t is g~rievous
news. We could nave better spared some
one else--some one to whom fewer things
happened, OF whose experiences were harder
reading and less refreshing to a tired mind.
In spite of his olninous addiction to certain
drugs, Mr.. Holmes at last accounts seemed
in good health and full of business and
irregular energy. His mind was work.
ing well, his income was salts
factory, and there was every reason to hope
that he would be spared to practice for years
to come the profession which he so signally
adorned. His friends even hoped that in
due course he might marry, and that some
of his remarkable gifts might prove to be
hereditary in a growing family. But it
seems hat through the intervention of one
Doyle, a physician, who had a claim upon
him, he was induced to undertake d case of
desperate peril, in which there is every
reason to believe that he lost his life. At
any rate, he has disappeared, and though his
remains have not yet been found, the proof is
almost absolute that he died a violent death.
His many admirers will cling to the last to
the hope that he may be found, and found
alive; but that seems so remote a possibility
that the more reasonable ~solace, such as it is,
appears in the chance hat his brother, whose
perceptions are we'll known to be marvel
lousy acute, may be reused by this bereave-
ment from the Indifference which has so long
impeded him, and be restored to a useful
and active life. DIR. Doyle, who is directly
responsible for our friends tragic death,
owes it to US to try at least to induce the
other Holmes to abandon the club where he
~stagnates, to move into the quarters in
Baker street, and to uphold at the old stand
the reputation of his family.-Harper's

THE WIDOW GOT THE PRIZE
1t Created a Rumpus at the Waverly's
Reception.

The Waverly Athletic Club, of Jersey
City, held it's twelfth annual masque and
civic ball Saturday night at the Avenue
House, Five Corners. The hall was crowded
and the affair was a great success. The
only thing that ccurred to mar the even
ing's fun was the confiscating of the prize
(which was to be given to the best dressed
LADY,, by Sam Knowle, one of the judges.
Mr.. William Cookson sent out and bought a
handsome pair of blue silk silver clasped
hose supporters, and turned them over to
Knowle to keep until the judges should
decide who was the winner During
the evening a charming widow played
havoc with Knowles affections, and
the consequence was when Cookson
asked for the prize, Knowle said he had
awarded it to the widow. The majority of
the judges objected to this n Knowle
promised to get it from the widow. The
winner of the prize was Miss Sadie Clifford
of Hudson City. The judges were Samuel
Knowle, William Cookson, Joseph Lonyi-
MOTTO, John Hanley. William Cruise, Harry
Allen, John Kelly and James Kelley.
Besides these there were also present
Messrs. Harry Heller, James Craigh-
ton, William Dunn, James Healy,
William Copy and Mr.. Van Etten of Port
Jervis, Messrs. Oscar Holmes, w. Scheen,
John Dooley, Hugh ONeill, H. +: Murphy,

NOT A HAPPY NEW YEARS.
Father and Mother Drunk, Child
Turned Out Into the Street.

Turned Out Into the Street.
The Hoboken police found Nellie Clunie,
seven years of age, wandering about the
streets at half-past ten o'clock Sunday night
searching for a place to sleep. The little
one was shivering from the cold and had no
hat. She was taken by q policeman to police
headquarters. She said her father and
mother were d~runkards and had put her out
of their house. She said she had been sleep
ing with neighbors for six nights and had no
place to go. The little girl cried bitterly.
She told the police she lived at No. 527
Willow wen A policeman was sent to
the house. Effecting an entrance by force,
he found the girls father and mother in a
beastly state of intoxication. They were
lying on the floor, whisky bottles by their
side. The mothers hair was dishevelled and
she showed signs of continued dissipation.
John Clunie, the father, was rum soaked
and could not utter a straight word. They
were taken to Police Headquarters in the
ambulance.
The girl Nellie was given to the care Of
Matron German until a disposition could be
made of the case. The father and mother
were a~rraigned before Recorder McDonough
yesterday morning. They had but partially
sobered up. Mrs. Clunie seemed to realize
the disgusting condition to which she had
reduced herself, and hung her head while
the Recorder spoke to her. Tn father was
used to the performance, and went through
it without a thought Of any consequence or
of mis- deplorable state.
They were sent to the County Jail for
thirty days. Nellie was entrusted to Poor
master Miller. She is a bright, blue-eyed
little girl. A son, William, five years of
age. was sheltered by ~neighbors after being
turned out of the house. The little boy told
Poorniaster Miller that he had been brutally
treated by the father. They will be sent to
the Almshouse until their parents serve the
sentence.

EARLY CLOSING ASSOCIATION.
Important Meeting Tonight at Hum

A special meeting Of the EARLY Closing
Association of Jersey City is to be held this
evening at Humboldt Hall at $50 P. NJ,
when members and sympathizers with the
early closing movement are expected to at
tend in large numbers, to decide on what
action they shall take toward the stores
which will not close at six P. Nj. The asso-
citation is not going to fight all stores. A
conference with the labor organizations is
also contemplated, and is expected shall be
held some time this week. The clerks still
feel confident that they face success, and
that their appeal, issued on last Saturday,
has been adhered to, as the principal and i'm
portant stores will close at six P. NJ, as can
be judged by the display of the associations

CHRIST P. E. CHURCH CHANGES.
Resignation of Organist and Choir
master Ken ueAIed

Resignation of Organist and Choir
master Requested.
The V~estfymen of Christ p. f. Church of
Greenville have requested Miss McMichael,
the organist, and Mr.. Marcus H. Grice, the
choirmaster, to resign. Their object in do
ing SO is to secure the services of some gen.
tleman who can act in the capacity of both
Choirmaster n organist. They claim they
cannot afford to pay for the services of both
an organist and choirmaster, and, as Miss
McMichaels cannot act as choir leader and
Mr.. Grice cannot manipulate the organ s1f-
ficiently enough to satisfy the Vestrymen,
their designations nave been asked for. 1t is
said that a New York gentleman will fill the
place. His name could not be ascertained.
Miss McMichael and her sister, it is said,
have both intimated that they will resign
from the church. 1t has caused much i'll
feeling among a great many members of the
congregation, as Miss McMichaels was very
popular. When she was offered the position
she was assured that she could keep it until
she wished to resign. Miss McMichael is
very indignant over the matter and does not
believe the story that the church is too poor
to pay for'the services of both her and Mr..
Grica

John Schaefer, thirteen years of age, liv-
ing with his parents at No. 81 Clinton street,
Hoboken, staggered along Washington
street, Hoboken, at a late hour last night
drunk. Johnnie is not much taller than an
ordinary table, but has the appearance of
being a very bad boy. He can swear as
fast as an adept, and can drink schooners
of beer with as much ease as a beer veteran.
Policeman Gerken noted Johnnie's unsteady
condition and took him to Police Headquar-

raigned before Recorder McDonough, he
grinned and said he was sorry he lac caused
the police department so much trouble. He

WE address our heartiest congratu-
lations to the Newark Ecefl6ng NeDs
upon the suspicious occasion of its re-
moval into new and splendid quarters
on Market street, Newark. This is a
substantial proof of its great pros
perity, which was not needed to con-
vince the public, but which the pub
lie is nevertheless rejoiced to receive.
To Editor Steel and Publisher
Scudder we particularly address vi
compliments. They have worked for
and deserved every particle of the
colossal success that has come to
them. Brains. energy and unswerv-
fidelity to honor and public duty are
a sufficiently rare combination-at
least in the degree in which they have
been found in this enterprise. When
the public do at last find them rich
rewards are sure to he bestowed.
The Nems is still young. and its
chiefs are in the prime OF life. There
is no saying how far their conquests
may reach. They have already ex-
hausted the present possibilities of
Newark. and reached well out TO other
cities and districts. and indeed We
know no reason why the present

W Republican National pollcy
previous years all seemed to
come Is a climax in the last twelve
months, and depression, contraction
and suffering are the lamentable
harvest.
Three acts of the Republican regime
have in particular combined to pro-
duce the present situation: the silver
compromise of Senator Sherman' the
Mckinley tariff and bounty system,
and the location of the Columbian
Fair in Chicago. The operations OF
the former two are too well known to
call for explanation here, The third
is becoming equally recognized by all
careful observers. That there is
nothing intrinsically disastrous IN a
great International fair is shown by
the experience of Paris, which has
found them pay well enough to hold
n every twenty years or so. but
both of the expositions in this coun-
try have shown that to immature and
non-metropolitan communities they
are q source of danger-in fact, of dis
aster.
The recent display in Chicago, it is
now realized, was largely a failure. 1t
failed to attract any considerable at
tention from abroad, Or even from dis
tant parts of this country. 1t simply
stirred up a cheap imitation in the
West. which was very speedily fol-
lowed by a sharp collapse. The West
has been bankrupt for owe a year
through its W faulty largely, and
the Eastern States are paying the
piper.
Obviously the mere loss in the Fair
itself, the dropping of from ten to
twenty millions into a hole, never to
be taken out again, is a serious mat
ter. It took Philadelphia ten years
from the affair of 1876, and
Chicago will be lucky if she gets over
her setback in the same period.
" In general we hope for better things
1894, first, because production is
wn to bedrock, the visible supply
Everything is nearer zero than it
5 been in twenty-five years. Some
le must soon begin 20 buy, and
therefore somebody else to manufac-
lure, and SO on all around.
In the second place. when the turn
comes, there is unlimited cheap money
4 to back it up.
Thirdly, the tariff question will be
settled, one way or another.
