ROAST VEAL.
An Objectionable thing about veal in
THIS country is that the calves are killed
too young. 1t would be an imDrovrment
IL IL were possible to convince those
interested IN the question, that the flesh
ol these animals is unfit to eat, if butcher
eo before they are at least six weeks or
two motnhs old. The best butchers. how
ever, keep the best meat, and at some of
these stores good veal can be obtained
The proper temperature of the oven has
much to do with the success of a roast,
out this can only be learned with time and
haDt. An oYer-heated oven will Scorch the
meat without cooking it. If 100 cool, the
meat heating slowly viii lose all Is Juice
ana become dry and tough Yet dark
Geat should be rare, and needs a Quicker
neat Than white meats, which must be
thoroughly done, and, consequently have
TO roast more slowly. If it is noticed
that the meat is browning too rapidly,
piece of buttered paper laid on top of it
and removed later VIII obyiate the diff
Guilty. Veal needs half hours cooking for
each pound of meat
The loin kidney part1 is the best cut for
roast. II the kidney is there, detach
II from the meat, take off all the fat in
which IT is wrapped (this fat, cut in small
pieces and melted, is a good addition for
your jars of greaSel, roll it in the flexible
part of the meat, fixing il with an iron
skewer. The wooden skewers stick to the
meat while cooking, aad are troublesome
to remove. Veal is naturally dry and
needs frequent bastiug, for that purpose
put a teaspConful OF grease or butter in
the pan. Sprinkle the meat with salt and
pepper ard set in the oven. Have il brown
ed and cooked equally well on both sides.

SPINACH.
A good vegetable to serve with veal is
spinach, it seems to harmonic with it
better than any other, excepting, perhaps,
puree d'oseille (sorrel in English), or a
puree of choieory. 1 will give to-day the
recipe for spinach:
2quarts OF spinach.
A bit of butter.
A pinch of pepper
Spinach can never be too carefully
and wash it in seven or eight different
waters, even then the sand may not be
| entirely removed. Have about three quarts
of boiling water well salted, plunge the
| spinach in il aud let it cook for twenty
minutes. Strain and press ali the water
out, and chop very fine Put the butter
in a saucepan on the fire. let il melt and
add to the spinach with dust of pepper.
Stir well until the butter is well mixed
! with the spinach, then sprinkle over a tea
spoonful OF flour. Stiil stirring. add half
glass or cream, cover and let simmer on
the back of the stove for eight or ten min
| utes. Stir again before serving

WEST END NEWS AND GOSSIP.

The assault on Mrs. Butts, near Peters
Vile, Md, on Sunday, a week ago, recalls
TO Sergt Harvey Volkman, of the Seventh
precinct, the history lingering about
pair OF old rusty handouts which hang
in the station among other relics.
The sergeant recited to crowd in the
squad room a few days ago the following
story of the cuffs
just sixteen years ago, on March 2l. at
nearly the same time in the day as the recent
assault on Mrs Butts, and at exactly the
same spot, John Carroll, q large burly
negro, sayagely attacked Mrs. Richard
Thomas, the wife of a farmer, and brutally
beat her about the head and body when she
cried for help.
The bruie then escaped, making his way
TO Georgetown On the canal towpath he
was captured by Sergt. Volkman, shackled
and taken back TO Petersville by the
officerin wagon.
Arriving near the town the officer
and prisoner were met by crowd of
enraged citizens, who pressed their pistols
10 the policeman's head and took the
negro from him. In ten minutes the man
still hanocuffcd was swinging from the
branch OF tree at the foot of Sugar
Loaf Mountain,
When the body was cut down the SER
geant took the handouts from the
dead mans wrists and carried them back
with him, and to-day be points to them
and says, with a half ShuddeT.
''Those are To remind me of the night
1 had about two dozen guns pressed to
my head and body.

been appealed to by citizens near Prospect
street, extended, in the alleged street OBJ
stractIon matter A few days ago the

ed fence across Prospect street. Adjacent
| property owners are much wrought up,
! claiming the fence is a detriment to the prog

From time to time there have been weighty
discussions in Teunallytown over the proper
way TO spell that little suburb. Some insist
that "Tenleytown" is proper, while Others
nave accepted without hesitation the name
| as given in the postal guides, etc, viz:
| 'Tennallytown." At q recent meeting OF
the residents an old document was produced
the will OF Sarah Tenley, the former owner
! of the town site, which would seem TO make
Tenleytown correct.

The Cow Puncher's Get-Up.
From Harper's Magazine.


The cow-puncher's legs must be Tended
from the thorny miles of the Rio Grande,
the thousand mongrel shrubs that lace
their bristles together stiff all over the
countryside mesquite, the shin oak, the
cats claw the Spanish dagger; wide
spreading, from six inches to ten feet
high, every vegetable vicious with an en-
broidery of teeth and nails; a continent
of peevish thicket called chaparral, as we
unfortunately call dog with too many
sorts of grandfathers a cur Into this
saw mill dives the wild steer through
paths and passages known to himself, and
after him the pursuing man must also
dive at a rate that would tear his flesh
to ribbons If the blades and points could
get hold of him But he cases his leg
against the hostile chaparral from thigh
to ankle in chap-leathern breeches next
door to armor; his daily bread is scarcely
more needful to him. Soon his barbaric
pleasure in finery sews tough leather
fringe along their Sides and the leather
flap of the pocket becomes stamped with
a heavy rose.
Sagging in a slant upon his hips leans
his leather belt of cartridges buckled with
jaunty arrogance, and though he uses
his pistol with murderous skin, it is pref
ty, with ivory or mother-of-pearl for a.
his looped rope free and drop its moose
over the neck of the animal that bounds in
front of his rushing pony. Therefore, he
rides in a loose flannel shirt that will
not cramp him as he whirls the coils; but
the handkerchief, knotted at his throat.
though il is there to prevent sunburn, will
in time OF prosperity be chosen for Its
color and soft texture, a scarf to draw the
eve of woman.
His heavy splendid saddle is, in its shape
and luxury of straps and leather thongs.
the completest instrument for night and
day travel and the freighting along with
you of board and lodging, that any nomad
has so far devised With its trappings
and stamped leather, its horn and high
cantle, we are well acquainted. 1t must

live beef tearing at it for freedom; It
