NUT CAKE Rub to a cream one and
half cups of sugar, with one-half cup
of butter; when very light add three
fourths of cup of sweet milk, one cup
of nuts carefully picked out" and cut
rather fine. Have ready two cups of
-four, we'll sifted. with one and half
teaspoonfuls of baking powder: add the
whites of four eggs, beaten stiff, and
last of all the flour. Bake in a flat tin
the size of an old-fashioned square pie
tin; have buttered paper in the pan;
the batter should not be at all stiff;
bake carefully; be sure to close the
oven door softly; any jar is apt to make
the cake fall. Either hickory nuts or
English walnuts can be used, or part
of each. Save out about 81 of the most
perfect and plump meats(the entire
half of one NUT to arrange on the out
side of the cake. After frosting nicely
put the meats at regular distances over
the top, so that when cut in squares
one nut meat is on each piece. Use
rather large cup, nearly half pint.
This recipe is also good for any large
cake, and if carefully made is always
good. You can use sliced citron in
place of the nuts for a change.

Special Dispatch 10 he h't!ictncer.
MoRGASrowx, W. Va. March &C.
The spirit in favor OF 40 enthusiastic
time in base bali for the coming season
seems to be very good. The interest
shown at the election OF a manager was
sufficient to prove 10 the casual OBJ
server that although athletics has as yet
been feebly encouraged in the univer.
atty, yet the students are wide awake to
the fact that the progressive colleges OF
the country are those in which this
feature OF intercollegiate relationship
is not neglected. The manager has ar.
ranged for games with ncighboring COL
leges, and this feature will be good
means OF advertising the university.
The following games have been ar.
ranged: Western University OF Penn
syivania, at Morgantown. May IS:
I Bethany College. at Fairmont. May Is;
4 Holy Ghost College. at Uuiontown,
May 80; Marietta College, at Morgan
town. June /; Washington aud JetIer-
son College. at Morgantown, June S;
Bethany College, at Morgautown. June
y. T.
This number OF games with college
teams will insure the lovers OF base ball
the privilege OF Watching tho game as
it,ia pisyed By fair.minded players OF
the day. Captain Sterling in his talk
to the candidates few days ago said
there were but two requirements for
membership in the team; first, a man
mu4t be man, and second, good bali
player.
There will be about twenty candidates
for positions, and rs the team will be
composed OF strictly college men, the
contest promises to be lively one.
The only discouraging feature is tho
Z financial aide, and strong effort will
be made to make tina. anccoss. This
part OF college lille docs a vast deal to
bring popularity to an institution, and
much credit is due to the students who
labor SO carncatly TO make i: Il success,
and, the undertaking should be- sup.
ported financially by tI,ose interested
and able Whatever success comes to
the team this year will be for the up.
buildin: OF the state university, and tho
cooperation OF the alumni and friends
