was and directed me how to find it. 1t

one attendant. After ] had taken the
steam reclined upon my back on the slab
to be rubbed down. After IA time the at

sooner changed my position than my eye
was attracted by some lettering carved
upon the surface of the slab. | raised my
self up and saw 1t was an inscription
which read; Sacred to the memory of
Mrs. Jane Hawkins Born Sept II,
1850; died Aug. 3, 1874. ! told the man

Cooking being an art every race has a
style of its own. The MalagaSy, like the
gentle Hindoo, knows how to prepare his
mess of rice 1t is not boiled to mash rs
in England, or as our potatoes arc some
times pulped, but, covered with n proper
sutfiCiency of water, is carefully treated
until the grains are swollen fit to burst
and yet romain full, intact, soft and rath-
er mealy. Tho maniOc root is an easier
dish to prepare. 1t is sometimes served
boiled, rs yams and sweet potatoes, and
again as a sort of cold porridge. Native
coffee they understand how to make, and
the aroma is excellent but tea, alasl You
have to look to the brewing of that from
start to finish If you desire drinkable
cup, Poultry and game are eaten fresh,
and the cooks have n clever and withal
clearly trick of dipping the dead animals
in boiling water, which enables them to
pluck them easily and quickly. The prep
aration for trusting comes later.
There is no lack of variety at n Mala-
gasy table, but, all the same you miss the
wheaton flour bread, sugar and condiments
when clOyed with rice, fowls, manioo and
eggs. The staple fuel Is bunch grass,
which when dried burns Aereely and set
ties into glowing ember that gives off a
deal Of heat. All the cooking is done on
earthen hearths and the roasting, boiling
and baking in big iron pots, The grass be-
ing slightly aromatic, the odor is as agree
able rs that of hard wood fire London

Fighting Spider Grabs.

The blue crab is a natural born fighter.
The probability Is that he would a little
rather fight than not. The spider crab Is
not so much Of a fighter as that. Still the
spider will put his claws up. There arc
eight or ten big spider crabs in one Of the
tanks at the New York aquarium, the
biggest Of them 4 inches in length Of body
and measuring or 10 inches in spread Of
legs. Two OF these spiders Of about equal
size met in the tank the other day and
stood up on their hind legs and faced each
other like two boys meeting I'm the street.
Then they threw their upper legs around
each other and grappled and began plug
ging away IL each other with their pinchcr
claws a moment later one pushed the
other over on his buck and fell on him.
He hit him once after be was down. Then
they went their ways.-New York Sun.

Stripped Of verhiago, the proposition
is for this government 10 embark in tho
Immediate and unlimited coinage of sill
yer dollars, each dollar to contain APP
proNimately so cents worth, Of silver
bullion; to discard all provisions FOR
guaranteeing the concurrent circulation
and parity IT gold and silver, and TO
compel by law the acceptance of the
new dollars in payment of all debts,
The object is TO reduce the value of
tho dollar about onehalf, and by fon-
ing creditors to take this dollar for debts
to scale all existing obligations, The
only exception will he where the Sllrewd
creditor has stipulated for payment i'll
gold, Such creditor will he paid in full,
but the unsuspecting man or woman
who has merely trusted to the honor Of
the nation is to be "done up" just i'll
proportion us the dollar is scaled,
The PopuhStS arc solid for this
scheme, It's i'll their line Of business
They are opposed to dollar having any
intrinsic valuo, but if they must have n
dollar worth anything ut all tho less it
is worth tho better it suits them. Very
few Republicans take any stock III tho
scheme, and the more it is studied the
sooner it will be dropped by all think
ing men,
Tho agitatorS assume, because Kansas
people arc i'll debt, that every Kansas
man ought to join i'll the clamor fer
such dollars. deny that it is tho duty
of any man, because ho lives i'll Kansas
and is in debt, 10 favor scheme which
his conscience tells him is wrong.

in the use of the largest volume of sill

maintained Mt u parity with our gold
and paper money, So that all of our dol
lars will be equal for all purposes But
the Harvey programme is merely u
scheme to scale our standard dollar-in
which all contracts have been made
for the purpose of robbing creditors.
If these agitators simply wanted to
cheaper tho dollars for use in future
business transactions, they would advo-
cato law making the new dollars legal
tender for future debts only. But that 3
not what they want. They insist that
these now cheap dollars must be mado
IA legal tender for all debts.
l am opposed to that becausoit is dis
honest If anybody can prove that it lis
honest, will be glad to DO for it. But
he must provo it by some better nrgu-
ment than tho threadbare assertion that

We would offer no objection to the
unlimited use Of silver at its real value.
Let the government offer to coin it into
pieces of convenient size and stamp
them according TO their weight and fine
ness and let them pass current at their
actual value. How many of tho silver
owners would take advantage Of their
silver in that way? Not any, but no
