THE SEASONS CANNING.

Valuable Suggestions for HouSekeep-
ers who Wish Fruit for Winter.
There are few things the average house
wife takes more pleasure in than her display
OF canned fruits and iellies, and so simple is
the process of making that there is no ex-
cuse for failure.
The three principal methods of preserving
fruit is by conserving it, the proportions
being pound of sugar to pound of fruit;
canning, one-quarter or one-half pound of
sugar 10 a pound, and Jellies, which are
pound of sugar to pint of juice. But the
last really the only fixed rule, as different
fruits often needs different proportions from
those given 10 obtain the best results
1t is of first Importance To have every
thing of the best quality, for poor fruit
viii not keep, and cheap sugar gives cloudy
results. Granulat or loaf sugar (the
former l use in preference, though some
think the more expense the more satiSfac-
tom and sound, not too ripe fruit, are es
sential
pecialIy the caps and rubbcrs. II there is
the slightest chance that the latter are not
in perfect order, il is better TO buy new
ones and not risk the result. The preServ-
ing kettle should be of granite ware or
porcelain; the old fashioned brass kettle is
so liable TO poison the lny yrcuientS. IN case
il is used il should be secured thoroughly
with salt and vinegar
When tue fruit Is ready to put on the
stove. the cans and jelly tumblCrS, which
ever are to be used should also b. put on
in a vessel of boiling water, with cloth
in the bottom to prevent breaking. Old
fashioned housewives always take the wash
boiler and boil the cans in il, but a large
dish pan will answer If theCanS or glasses
are not boiled, there is danger of breaking
when the hot fruit is put in. Many con-
tent themselves with slipping a silver fork
in each can, but it is much less trouble to
boil them all at once.
Berries are always looked on as the best
Jelly fruit, though they can be canned or
turned into jam. which is always relShed
by children. CuTrantS, raspberries, both
red and black, blackberrieS and gOoSeberrieS
all come in the summer months, and make
fine preserves, either siDgly or in combina-
ton.
All jelly takes the same proportion, pound
for pound, or pound to pint OF juice. The
nlodus opeTandi in all cases are alike. The
fruit. which should not be too ripe, is put
in the kettle with little water TO prevent
burning at the bottom. When they have
cooked to pieces, strain through jelly bag.
Some always use flannel, in which case 1T
is better to let the fruit strain during the
night, for it takes a very long time TO drop
through. I use two thieknesses of cheese
cloth and find it very satisfactory, and
The morning times., 1895-07-07

many use metal straineT that IS on the
market. When the bags are used, they must
be hung by the stove.
The Juice is measured and the sugar
added. When it begins to boil, ii should
be SKINNED carefully, never allowing the
scum TO go under the surface, or the Jelly
Will not be clear. Twenty minutes boiling
should be sufficient. Some test il by beat
ing a little cool in saucer, when 1t vii
thicken if cooked enough. A simple method
is to take up a spoonful and let IL run off
slowly. IL the last drops hang on the end
like little ball, it is done.
The tumblers should then be placed IN
the sun TO thicken TO top a little. When
perfectly cold, the next day is soon enough,
tie up. Some put branded paper over the
top others melted paraffine. | use battered
paper cut to fit in the mouth. TAen paste
paper over the top and label and keep in a
cool, dry place.
RaspbeTTies and cuFTants combined make
delicious jelly. using five boxes OF the
former to one of the latter. The canning
is the same as with other fruits.
Jam is made in the proportion Of pound
for pound Raspberry jam is the better
with about a pint OF curTant juice added
to three pounds of fruit Cook until 1t
Jellies on cold plate, then put up IN jars
and cover tine same as Jelly. Our grand
mothers always used high stone jars for
this purpose, but smaller ones are better IL
the family does not include too many chill
dreR. Strawberries and gooseberries should
be picked before too ripe. BlackberrIes are
very fine, though the large seeds are an OBJ
lection to many.
Another way to prepare blackberries so
that they are very useful is TO bottle the
juice 1t is an excellent medicine in cases
OF diarThoea. dysentery, etc. which 80
often occurs with children ThiCEened with
flour il is still better.
Green grapes make a delicious tart Jelly.
Berries are added to color, preferably rasp-
berries one box to about a half peck OF
grapes Look them over carefully, and
cover with a little water When boiled till
soft and broken, strain through a c0lander
and again through a cheeseclOth bag, so
that none of the fine pulp can possibly creep
through Add the berries and strain again,
then add the sugar and boil till 1t jellies.

MARION BRANDON IN JAIL.
Judge Cole Sentences Her 10 Ninety
Days, ImnrisOnment

Judge Cole Sentences Her TO Ninety
Days imprisonment.
Marion Caesar, alias Brandon, a styliShly-
dressed muldtto woman, who ran away last
Tuesday from q United States subpoena
to testify against AuffoTt and Desmond in
the Washington Steamboat Company bur
glary case, was sentenced by Judge Cole
yesterday to ninety days in jail, and an
hour later began TO serve her term She
was brought back here Wednesday after
noon.
When she was called in Jude e Coles court
yesterday Thomas L. Jones answered as her
attorney, and was granted q continuance
until Monday, that he might prepare the
case, but his client objected 10 this, and
Judge Cole gave her an immediate hearing.
Upon her own testimony she is a native
OF Fredericksburg, Md; lived for time
i'll disreputable locality here, and since
January 1 last has been employed at
Harry Gamblers place at Jackson City
She said nobody told her to refuse to tes-
tify and to go away She did this Of her
own accord.
She went away because she thought
she would be sent to jail as a witness
Judge Cole said he had supposed her
ignorant but found her abundantly in
tcIgent to understand the offence when
she was guilty OF it, 1t was a wilful dis
regard Of the law
Attorney Jones begged for a nominal
fine. urging that she had run way through
fear Of prison not knowing II was con-
tempt Of court
Mr. Biruey replied that she had acted
wilfully and for a purpose. Her absence
had deprived the government of very i'm
pOrtaut evidence and hindered conviction
Judge Cole said lac would not impose a
fine, for the defendant would proba bly,
escape 10y somebody else paying IL She
must 20 to jail for ninty days

NOT MALTREATED IN MEXICO
Story Of Cruelty to Negro Oolonists
Denied by the Consul.
Some Left the Colony But Nearly An
Returned of Their Own Accord.
None Shot or wounded.

The Department of State is in receipt
OF report from Jesse w. Sparks, consul
at Piedras Negras, on the colony of negroes
brought from Alabama and Georgia last
February TO Tldhualila, Mexico, concern
ing whose treatment there have been many
conflicting reports
Reports have appeared iii American
newspapers that some of the colonists
escaped from the farm, were pursued by
w. II Ellis, the coIored man who imported
them, and that thirty-two were shot down,
willie the survivors were captured, taken
back to the colony, and subjected to harsh
punishment. The consurs investigation
has shown this story to be almost entirely
without foundation
Forty three of the colonists did leave
the colony, but the leader of the band,
Joe Caldwell. has stated that his motive
in going away was a ruse to satisfy his
sons, who wished to run away, that flight
was impracticabe Caldwell led the
band over the mountains and then back
to the colony All were brought back in
safety, except twenty one men and women,
who separated from the others and in
sisted upon going Oh ahead. These have
not been traced, but some of them reached
the United States, and, it is probable,
spread reports of the defth of the thirty
two returned to the colony.
No one was shot or wounded, but Cald-
well states he was struck BY u Mexican
with the barrel of a gun and otherwise
injured and confined for nearly two weeks
in the colony lookup. The band was met
and badly frightened by some MeXicans
who had been sent out from the colony
to find them and relieve them, as they
were without food and water.
Mr. Charles Paul Mackio, an American,
who Investigated the affair, corroborates
this statement, and declares that the col
Onists are receiving good treatment, al
though many of them have been sick from
change of water diet, etc. They now have
the benefit, however, OF good medical
attendance Although some of the col
onists tell stories OF harsh treatment, the
consul is indisposed to credit them, and at
tributes their troubles to the fact that
they are in a strange country, among
strangers, and do not speak or understand
the language
The negro manager, Ellis, rules, how
ever, in the COnsul's opinion, with great
severity, and the negroes say he made
! representations to them in America which
he has failed to carry out in Mexico.

Loan Association, as proposed by The
Times. We're arranged at a meeting of the
committee in charge of that matter, yes
terday afternoon, at the office of Messrs.
Ralston & Siddons. There were present
Massrs +. l. Moore, II. c Potter, Ii. b. f.
MacFarand. August Donath, Mr.. F. L.
Siddons and Col. John Tracy, superintend-
ent of Public Charities, the latter attend
ing at the request of the committee.
Col. Tracy, called on, gave some valuable
information to the committee as to the
praCticabilityof the scheme and the methods
by which il could be made a practical sue
cess.
The special purpose of the meeting was to
have the committee informed as to the
legalstatus of the proposed association with
reference to its incorporation.
INCORPORATION IN VIRGINIA
Ii has been understood that such corpora
ton is not practicable under the laws of
the District, and hence the committee ap-
pointed Mr. Siddons to report on how the
enterprise could be pushed forward without
waiting on the passage of a law by Con-
gress TO cover the contingency.
Mr. Siddons looked into the law ofscveral
of the adjacent States, and selected that
OF Virginia as applicable and favorable 10
sie object in view He, therefore, after
full statement of this phase of the delay
recommended an Incorporation under the
Virginia law
A resolution adopting Mr. Siddons' sug-
gcStion was then passed.
a resolution was also passed calling for
a public meeting, which VIII be held on
Wednesday afternoon next at l 2 30 O'Clock
at the rooms of the Board of Trade At
this meeting the committee VIII report
all its transactions.
The financial details agreed upon yes
terday Were that the capital stock be fixed
at 90 900, the stock TO be divided into
shares of SO each.
FOUR PER CENT AT FIRST
Its proposed 10 loan money at 10perCent.
| per annum, which, if $50 900 IN stock
! be secured, viii enable the association TO
! pay the stockholders per cent. per
annum. An increase of the stock will
| OF course, mean the payment OF a larger
| dividend
1t was the sense of the committee that
| Congress should be asked for some legis-
! laton, but the situation was also re-
| garded as one that admitted OF no delay,
and the matter was pushed TO the conclu-
/ sion reached yesterday.
The committee has undcr AIKEN some in
| tercsting work with relation TO the com
| pletiOR of the plan, the result of which
| VIII appear at the public meeting on

GOING TO FIRE Big GUNS
Double-Turret Monitor Amphitrite

To settle at once the effect OF the blast

While on her trial cruise in southern
waters, the Amphitrite fired all of ner
guns, bat So far as known none OF the big
guns were discharged across the deck as
they would be in action were the ship 20

cred in this test is expected to be OF vaIuein
settling the question, now agHatiHg the
Navy Department, as to the location of the
turrsts on the two new battleships. as fear
has been expressed BY the ordnance bureau
that the blast from the eight-inch guns. II
they are fired directly over the twelve
inch guns, will blow in the cover OF the
turrets of the latter guns
The officers of the Construction Bureau
feel no apprehension on that score and
claim that the experiments at Indian Head
Were not conclusive, for the reason that the
eight inch gun in the test was placsd within
twenty-fOur inches of the covering plate
of the turret. which was not properly sup
ported, while IN the plans for the battle
ships the guns are at least fifty inches
above the big turrets, and they can, it is
said, be given any desired degree OF
strength. either by increasing their thick
ness or adding suitable framing below.
In the AmphitISe, the ten-iEcn guns in
the two tUrTeJs are placed in HiCEbOTn tur-
retS, slightly modified, SIX feet above the
deck. The latter is made OF TWO inches OF
Steel faced with four inches Of yellow
pine timber, so that it Is felt that IL viii

to know just how the ship VIII behave IN

II believe some did come out" said Fow-
Ter. "Why?''
They were loaded with whisky, weren'

The eX-convict, who was a shrewd crook,
had bored into each cocoanut and emptied
