PORK 7GAsTRONoMY.
The Royal Manner Tn Which Hams Ars
 Served at Delmonfco's

The Royal Manner Tn Which Hams Are
 Served at Delmonico'a-
 Infinite are the ways in which the ''swine of Jewish abomination" may be served to tickle the gentle palate. From the ham and spinach of the south- ern plantation to the ham of Delmoni- co.'s is the history of the rise and fall of pork gastronomy. It is doubtful if the esthetio delight of the latter will ever compensate for tho lingering flavor of Dinah's concoction.
 Here is how Charles Ranhoffer, Del monico's famous chef, serves in royal livery the outlawed pig:
 "Steep smoked ham in cold water 24 hours; wash, pare and remove hip bone; put it in earthen dish, pour over some Madeira wine and season with whole peppers, cloves, thyme. bay leaf, mace, garlic, sliced carrots, onions and lemon juice. Keep it in cool place for l2 hours, turning the ham round several times in this marmade. Five hours before serv- ing wrap the ham up, with its strained marmade fried in butter, moistened and reduced with white wine, in sheets of strong oiled paper: cover the paper with four and water paste, so that the ham is dramatically inclosed; then cover this paste with another sheet of very thin oiled paper; lay it either on the spit or in the oven; pour oil over and roast for three hours; then remove from fro md make small hole in the top to penetrate tho paste and papers; set a funnel into this and pour in gill of good Madeira, the same quantity of Malaga and half gill of brandy. Cover the whole with a round piece of paper and paste it over to concentrate all the steam, which is essential to obtain success.
 "An hour later take ham from oven or spit, unwrap, pare carefully and glaze with meat glaze; dress and garnish around with escalops of foies gras. cocks combs, kidney and slices of red beef tongue three-sixteenths of an inch and one and n fourth inches in diameter. quenelles, channeled mushrooms Cover the whole with we'll buttered supreme sauce and trim the handle with paper frill; insert Q few skewers in the top. garnished with cockscombs and chan neled mushrooms. This ham may be served with jardiniere dressing and q half glaze sauce served separately" LIDA ROSE MCCABE-

How the Chinese Play Chess.

Chess has been played in China, accord ing to the Chinese, about 2, ,00O years. The Chinese game, which Is little like the game played in America and Europe, is supposed to have been invented in the year ll20 E. C. and apparently had an origin independent of the Indian game, as its rules of playing us we'll as tho peculiar marking of the board abundantly demon stratc.
 There are T2 squares, of which eight run together to form n river. which crosses the board at the center, having 32 on each side, but as the men stand on the inter section of the lines there are 90 positions for the l6 pieces used by each player. or 20 more than in the European game.
 The pieces are like checker men in shape each of the seven kinds on each side having its name cut on the top and

THE KNOCKOUT BLOWS
They Never Kill Healthy,
 Well Trained Boxer.
FITZsIMMONs' DEADLY FOREARM.
Dan Creedon Believes That Bob May Have Used It When He Killed Riordan-How the Knockout Blow Is Landed and Why It Produces Unconsciousness.

The recent fatal blow administered by Bob Fitzsimmons to his sparring partner, Con Riordan, has revived discussion over the knockout blow. Last year six men were killed in pugilistic contests in the United States, but not one had any stand
 ing whatever in the ring. One was n col
 ored stable boy named Emmet Burke, who had hardly recovered from an attack of pneumonia. The others were men of about the same class, and there does not seem to be a single instance on record where healthy, well trained pugilist has been killed in the ring in recent years
 Bob Fitzsimmons has knocked out over 100 men since he came to America, but Riordan is the only man he ever seriously injured, and the blow he struck Riordan was, according to his story, light one, given in mere exhibition bout in thea ter. Fitzsimnons, using all tho force at his command, knocked out Jim Hall and Dan Creedon with a single blow of his

An Indian From White Earth
Drives in the Drovc OF Tur-
ties for Como Park.

The people on upper Wabasha street
were surprised yesterday afternoon to
Sue q land turtle making its way up the
street close to the curb. 1t occasionally
tried to climb the curb to the sidewalk.
Passers-by stopped to look at it. and one
>ofythem lifted it to the sidewalk. The
turtle crawlad nnder the steps of the
Nine. Barkaloo residence. About a
half hour after the surprise of the peo-
pie grew to aStoniSslment when six
other tultleS were seen 10 be following
the first one in row anh a short dis.
taEce apart. Behind them was a half
breed Indian, in semi-barblric costume,
and who asked what had bacame of the
first turtle. The Indian was told of its
place OF hiding. and he raked the turtle
out with cruok he carried and started
it again at the head OF his procession
going up street. The name OF the half
breed is Sibiey Catch-No-G GoDd. He
lives on the White Earth reservation.
The story he told is tina. he heard that
the superintendent of Come park, Fred
NuSSbanmner. wanted a collection of
land turtles to add to the attractions of
Como. He said that Gus BeaulIeu toll
him that Corporation Attorney Cham
berlain had written an official opinion
! to the effect that the park board had
| authority to beautify and make
the parks attractive. Acting Oh
this information. he started from
| White Earth over month ago
bring collection of land turtles to
| the city to sell them to the park board,
| and had driven his seven turtles the
| whole distance. "Tney are all historic
turtles" said the Indian, Except that
young one in the lead. 1t travels too
| fast for the others, and | have lost him
several tves by his getting ahead and
| hiding: but by inQuiring along the way
l have kept him from getting lost.
This one" pointing to larger one
| in the rear, rs QUE that has been known
| Oh the reservation as long as the Oldest
Indian can remember. 1t has always
been pet about the tepees.-
| Oace when Gen. Sibley was at
| White Earth he noticed the
turtle and placed his initials, H. IL. s.,
OIL its back, as you can see, together
with the date 1855 which was the
same year the state of Minnesota was
| admitted into the Union" Au inspec
ton of the back of the turtle showed
the initials and the date, as stated. The
Indian said that the turtle is much oldel
than the date Indicated, and Is believed
to be over 100 wears cid. A crowd o
boys anu men followed the Indian auC

on up Wabasha street on his way Il
