PREPARING A SWEDISH DELIcAcY.

F-nGT HTNtN6 - 0vvGGlSI1 OGIiSNSIs
lyon YOnsOn" Beege Describes the Process
In 'Little Scandinavia
SIN Little Scandinavia, which in.
cludes two or three Of the counties IN
northern Wisconsin, where the Swedes.
Norwegians and Danes have settled in
great numbers says Gus Heege, the
impersonator of Yon Yonson and the
originator of Swedish dialect comedy
on the stage, "butchering week each
fall is one of the busiest and merriest
times Of the whole year. The entire
family-mother, father and children
have hand in the work, and they are
frequently assisted by the nearest neigh
bors, who sometimes come three or four
miles across the hills.
"Butchering with the Scandinavians
means the saving and utilization of ev-
cry part of the beef or hog of the smallest
value. Even the blood is preserved, and
it appears later in the winter, when the
thermometer is down below zero and
supplies are short. in the form of blood
pudding or blood cake, both Of which are
very nourishing as we'll as toothsome
dishes The preparation of these COM
pounds is entirely the work of the wom-
ell and the smaller children. AS soon as
the men are ready to begin the work Of
killing, mother comes out with her
hands full of pans and pals, and the
boys and girls follow with little wisps
of brooms or twigs bound up in neat
bundles. The blood of the animal is
caught in the pans, and the children are
soon at work stirring it with the twigs
in order to keep the fibrin from collect
ing in clots Many little arm grows
weary before the mother says the blood
has been sufficiently stirred, and the
pans are borne into the house.
"Here a quantity Of ryemeal is add
ed, and the stirring is resumed until
the mass is thoroughly mixed and of the
consistency of dough. Salt, pepper and
sage are sprinkled over the combination,
and 1T Is set aside to freeze. In cooking
it the cake is sliced up and fried on a
hot griddle with ham or pork. In taste
it resembles sausage, but the flavor is
much finer. Sometimes pieces of scrap
meat are mixed in with the blood, and
the combination is then called blood
sausage. When enough meal has been
added. the pudding can be dried until it
becomes as hard as stone, and In that
form it will keep in good condition for
an almost unlimited time
"Blood cake and blood sausage may
be bought at almost any Swedish meat
market, and its consumption has in=
creased to such an extent that some OF
the packing houses make it as staple
article. New York Times,

THERE is AN ORCHARD.

There is an orchard beyond the sea,
And high is the orchard wall,
And ripe is the fruit in the orchard tree
Oh, my love is fair and tall!
There is an orchard beyond the sea,
And joy to its haven HES,
And white hand opens its gates to me
Oh, deep are my true loves eyesl
There is IN orchard beyond the sea;
Its flowers the brown bee sips,
But the stateliest flower is all for me-
Oh, sweet are my true loves lips!
There is an orchard beyond the sea
Where the soft delights do roam;
To the Great Delight have bent my knee
Oh, good is my true loves homei
There Is an orchard beyond the sea,
With a nest where the linnets' hide.
Oh, warm is the nest that is built for mel
In my true loves heart bide.

Probable Cause or tho Du Ponts' Asunpou.
s. der Explosion. s
The greatest explosion of gunpowder
the world has ever known took place
ut the Du Points works on the 7th of
October, 1890. With their usual eau
tious policy, says McClure's Magazine,
the Du Points have never stated just
how great a quantity of powder. ex-
ploded at this time, but it is certain
that three mag azines and three mills
in the upper yard were blown mp, one
after another, and safe estimate viii
put the quantity of powder exploded
at one hundred and fifty tons. In this
explosion thirteen men and one woman
were instantly killed, while twenty
two men and nine women were injured,
some fatally.
The explosion occurred q little after
three o'clock in the afternoon 1t be-
gan in the magazine for heXagonal
powder, the kind used in large guns.
and the most dangerous, being made
not in grains, but in reddish, six-sided
cakes about an inch thick, with hole
running through the center. These
cakes look like nothing so much as the
nuts on 4 wagon wheel. At the time
being packed into large wooden boxes.
lined with tin, each. box being about
three feet square. The tin Innings pro-
jected above the tops of the boxes
about two inches, and, when box was
packed, were folded down over tin
cover fitted closely upon the cakes of
powder. 1t was the duty of one of the
worl<mcn, William Green, to solder
these tin. edges down upon. the tin
cover, a hot iron being used for this
purpose.
On the day in question what he
feared came to pass. A fellow work
man, William McGarvey, was bringing
him the hot irons from a charcoal
brazier about twenty-five yards dis
tant. Green stood just ut the door of
the open magazine, and all around him
were un covered boxes with the hcXag-
onal powder, ready to be sealed and
slowed away. There were also dozens
of EOXes that had been sealed. just
wii;at :iuppened will never be known for
neither Green nor McGarVcy we left
to tcli the story. But the probability
is that one of the soldering !rons was
little too hot and by touching Il purticle
of dirt on the tin cover produced the
deadly spark. ..#"

Jewish Monotheism.

As Leopold Won Ranko truly said, the
exodus of the Jews from Egypt and their
breaking with tho Egyptian theology OF
nature worship marked the foundation OF
the civilization of mankind. Monotheism
I'm its very inception placed man upon the
highest pedestal of moral purity, spiritual
elevation and ideal aspiration. Only for u
nationality erected upon tho basis of mon
oihcism was it possible to proclaim in
the hoary past the equality of all men in
the community and before the law, which
tolerated neither the prerogative of caste
nor the privilege of aristocratic station
There was no aristocratlc, privileged class
In Israel; the tribe charged with attending
the divine service in the tabernacle and
the temple were not to own any property
and were dependent altogether upon the
peoples free and voluntary support
Under monotheism, there was no disin-
horitod portion, all, as children of the
same Father in heaven, were entitled to
equal consideration, and rs the poor ''wero
to be always with us" the provisions
made for their support were adequate and
did not degrade them, and could not have
that domoralizing influence which today
Is tho heaviest burden which the pauper
class has to bear Tho suhlimcst attribute
of the one and only God, "beside whom
there is nome Is that Of holiness, and to
be follower of God meant to practice
holiness, purity in thought and action
All the laws ordained, rs we find thon in
the written aod tho oral laws of the Jews,
had ne Other purpose and were distinctly
onjoned for the purpose of training man
to life of moral purity and correct CON
duct especially to look UPON every man as
a brother, tho son of his Father in heaven,
to whom he is bound in ties of love and
brotherly affection -Mlnorah.

THE MANATEE.


OF all the large animals u the American
,,,,tfnopt mons. f. more remarkable In
form than the Tnanatee.
Although this strange creature is Of
et0dly size, often reaching weight OF
s.veral hundred pounds and sometimes
attaining a length Of 10 feet, yet venture
10 gs.y that not more than one person out
Of every 4 900 In the United states could
now arise and correctly answer the cues
ton. what r. manateef" Whenever
Won mention the name of the creature to
any one save . student Of quadrupeds, Of
a surety you win have that question TO an
gyger forthwith.
The Inanatee is an animal that lives ex-
cluslyely in the water, and while 1T Is
shaped somewhat like "A seal it is very far
from being one Inention the seal by way
Of comparison solely because 1t is the only
aIndruped which can be used. The heavy,
baglike body, short neck, blnntIose and
round head u our harbor seal do indeed
suggest tbs form Of the manatee, but there
the resemblance stops short.
Instead Of having hind nippors Ike a
seal. the body Of the manatec terminates
In a very broad and very fiat tail, which
forms an admirable propeller Its front
limbs are simply big, fat paddles, by no
means 20 shapely and useful as the front
1ippcrs Of sea lion. 1t has no hair-or,
at least, none 10 speak ola smooth, bug

eyes and "a blunt nose. Instead OF having

It lives In the mouths and lower reaches
of rivers that flow into the sea IN tropical
ATTITUDES, and while IL does not object 10

that IL either brackish or else quito fresh
and the latter Is preferred because Of its
naIatic vegetation. Unlike the seal, 1t Is
quito unable to come out on land.
am glad TO be able 10 say that even to-
dny this remarkable animal Is an inhab-
liant Of ono portion Of our strangely diver
siied United States.
For some particular reason, probably
the abundance of good food combined with
a good depth of water, "A number Of mana
