HELENA. Mont, Feb. 4th.-Special to
the Salt Lake Tribune: A telegram from
Glendale says a snowslde occurred there
yesterday, and that the Superintendent and
Foreman of the Hecla Mining Company
were buried six hours in the snow, but
were rescued alive and uniDjured. The
slide occurred in the same place in which
six men were killed last year.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4th.-Interest in the
financial question about the Senate to-day
centered in the activity of the Silver Sena-
tors and the frequent conversations held
by them. This, taken in connection with
the call issued by Senator Voorhees,, Chair
man of the Finance Committee, for meet
ing tomorrow, led to the general supposi-
ton that an attempt would be made by the
silver advocates on the committee to Sc
- -. porting Of free silver bill.
Inquiry among the members OF the COM
mittee failed to develop absolute assurance
that the effort would be made, but enough
was said in many quarters to indicate that
the general suppostion was not without
good foundations, and to justify the state
ment that the silver men are very hopeful
of bringing a free coinage bill out of the
committee, if not at to-morrow's meeting,
at the next one to be held.
They believe Senator Jones OF Nevada
will unite with senators Norhees, Harris,
Vest, White and Jones of Arkansas in sup
port of some measure that will he satsfac-
tory to the silver men.

AN IMPROMPTU CIRCUS.
A Wagon Throws the Wheeler of
Walter Morosco's Tandem and the
Three Horses Run Away.

Walter Morosco's magnificent team of
three blooded horses which he drives tan
dem hitched to a big Brewster cart did a
circus turn of their own Thursday after
noon that excited great deal of interest
on Golden Gate avenue. Mr.. Morosco has
driven his team in and around the con-
course at the park on Sundays when it was
crowded with vehicles and never met with
an accident. But the driver of a one-horse
delivery wagon was the Wellington who
accomplished his overthrow, or rather tip
over.
Mr.. Morosco was returning from the
park when the man with the delivery
wagon turned into Golden Gate avenue,
then changed his mind and his course
with the result that he ran against the
wheeler of the tandem, throwing the horse
against the curb. The animal tripped and
fell heavily, breaking both shafts near the
cart and throwing Mr.. Morosco, his COM
panion and the "tiger" into the street.
Frightened by the noise the spirited
animals dashed down the street, keeping
in perfect order. Finally the swing horse
slipped on a dragging line and the leader
was pulled to the ground. The other two
passed on and passing the leader jerked
him to his feet by the traces, when with
two bounds he was in the lead again.
The horses turned at Van Ness avenue
and at Turk street found their progress
barred by a long hay wagon. There the
leader broke away and ran to the stable
and the other horses were captured.

only person in America who can make
this particular tea successfully, and that
she thinks a great deal of the recipe is
evidenced by the fact that she has had it
copyrighted.
Following her own particular style, Mrs.
Hinckley gave an interesting talk on what
constituted good tea, ending up with max
ing the beverage itself. Among those
who enjoyed the lecture and the tea were
Mrs. DR.. McNutt, Miss Jennie Blair Mrs.
Henry /. Dodge, Mrs. H. E. Bothins, Mrs. John
F. Merrill, Mrs Ernest r. Lilienthal, Mrs. Emily

which she handled the subject plainly
showing that she practically understood
all that she theoretically explained.

THE DELICATE DESSERTS.
Mrs. Ewing Tells What They
Should Be, and Talks of
MinCe Pies.
San Francisco Is the Cheapest
Place in Which to Live
Well,

The closing lesson of Mrs. Emma P.
Ewing's course, given under the auspices
of the Society for the Introduction of
Scientific Cooking in the Kitchen, was
given Wednesday morning in Golden Gate
Hall in the presence of large number of
ladies, very many of whom were interested
listeners at the lessons previously given.
A feature of the attendance was the nor
NAL class of this city, which, under the es-
cort of a teacher, entered the hall in a
body.
The lecture was on delicate desserts. and
it was full of interest to those who were
anxious to know how delicious, appetizing
dishes could be prepared.
Before entering upon the mode of max
ing these Mr.. Ewing stated that he had
just received a Rochester IN. W paper
that contained the report of a bread
contest held in that city for prizes
one of IS and the other of
50 80, and that it contained the very graf
flying announcement that "the first and
second prizes were awarded to two young
ladies who had taken their lessons in
breadmaking at Mrs. Emma P. Ewing's
cooking school."
This statement was received with mani
festations of approval from all parts of the
hall.
The demonstration said that she had for
ten years felt the public pulse in the mat
ter of household science, and she had
found that the helpers i'll the kitchen were
not 50 much to blame for not being able to
prepare food scientifically, because thew
did not have places where they could
learn.
Then reverting to the subject of her
lecture she said that desserts should
be light, delicious and appetizing. The
most barbarous thing she could imagine.
she said, was a dessert of mince pie or n
plum pudding. Mince pie she thought
was good for our ancestors, who could not
luxuriate as we do now and who were so
busy that they had time only to make
mince pies at one baking to last one month.
The crucial test OF the preparation of
food was the flavor. She then exhibited
mold made of angel cake. "That is what

WIVES HAVE RIGHTS.
Two Cases Where Recreant Spouses
Were Brought to Book.

Two Cases Where Recreant Spouses
Were Brought to Book.
The Superior Courts are jealous of the
rights of wives to be supported by their
husbands In two cases yesterday such
right was upheld.
In the case of Gertrude F. Collin VS..
Francis j. Collin, the defendant pleaded
that he was working as pharmacist for
his father for board and lodging only, and
had no balance to pay alimony to the
plaintiff. But Judge Murphy declared
that the law did not contemplate any such
cheap work by an able-b man, and
he therefore adjudged Francis j. Collin
guilty Of contempt of court and ordered
him committed into the custody of the
Sheriff until the order of the court that he
pay his wife $25 month was complied
with.
In the other case w. H. Seaton was in
vited to tell in Judge Hunts court why he
had not maintained his wife, Alice. He
said he was a relative of G. 2. Huntington
and was waiting for position in the rail
road office. In the meantime he was
being supported by his mother, who paid
his room rent and gave him meal-tickets.
The court decided that as he was able to
pay an attorney to represent him he was
not without means, and ordered him to
pay his wife $50 month.

Ex-Judge S. ID. Thompson Captures an
Intruder in His Room.
Ex-Judge S. D. Thompson was awakened
from a sound slumber in his room in the
Russ House Thursday night by slight
noise in the direction of his bureau. He was
taking nap on lounge in corner pre-
paratory to retiring for the night, and as
he raised himself on his elbow he could
see nothing. Mr.. Thompson was police
man back in Memphis, Tenn, in his
youth, however, and his early training
prompted him to investigate. He saw a
man trying to rifle his bureau, and as he
sprang from the lounge to give chase the
man went out of the door on the run, with
the Judge good second. Before the lar
cenist had reached the stairs the ancient
jurist caught him, and he held him until
the patrol wagon was rung up and the
police arrived. The man was booked at
the old City Hall for burglary. He gave
the name OF William Harris. He had not
time to secure any of Mr.. Thompson's
effects

A TIMELY COURTESY.
Two Representative Men of Los An
geIes Invited to Come Here by
the Half Million Club.

The Half-million CLUBS executive COM
mittee held meeting yesterday and ten
dered invitations to President Koefi of the
Los Angeles Citizens Association and
Director-General Max Marburg of the
fiesta to come to San Francisco and be
guests of the club while here. The invita-
ton also asked these two representatives
of the hospitable Los Angelenos to partici-
pate in the excursion to Ukiah next Mon
day. The invitation is jointly made by
the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce
and the Half-million Club.
The overwhelming hospitality extended
by the Los Angeles people to the club ex-
cursion will long be remembered by those
from this city who attended the fiesta and
this invitation is merely courtesy due the
south.

the angels have nicer food than that" This
she filled with fruit. and declared that
such cake enough for six, ought not to
cost more than 10 cents.
Reverting to cheap living she said that
she had studied the problem of wholesome
cooking with the best in the land, and
found that a family of four could live well
at a cost of Sc a week, and added that she
never was in place where people could
live cheaper than in San Francisco.
Mrs Richter, a member of the class de-
clared at her home they lived on the fat of
the land on 81 90 each per week.
Mrs. Ewing then explained the use
of gelatine, and stated that with it
she could make at least forty different
excellent desserts-and showed how fruit
Jelly could be converted into pudding and
the pudding into cream dessert and that
each might be used as a separate dessert il
desired before mixing.

LECTURES AT THE HOSPITAL.
Mrs. Ewing Tells Nurses and Doctors How
to Cook,

to Cook.
Mrs. Ewing delivered two lectures at the
Lane Hospital on Monday and Wednesday
evenings that have deeply interested the
professors and nurses of that institution
The lessons were given at the suggestion
of the hospital authorities, Professor and
Mrs. Lane being the promoters of the idea,
and in all probability regular course on
the scientific preparation OF food for in
valids will be given at that institution next
fall.
The lesson on Monday night was on
broillng poultry, meats, fish and oysters,
and making good cornbread. The lecturer
showed how to broil chicken in the oven
of a 'gas-stove, to cook steaks and oysters
properly on griddle and the art of baking
corn-dodgers according to the most scien-
tific methods.
She said that Mrs. Henderson's assertion
that not one cook in a thousand knew how
to make toast was true in every particular,
as she could testify from her own personal
experience at hotels, restaurants and
boarding-houses. Then, in her pleasing
way, she told just how bread should be
toasted and how the toast should be
served
At the lecture Wednesday night Mrs.
Ewing showed the class how to boil rice,
to cream Goldfish and to frizzle beef, so that
these articles would be appetizing to either
invalids or people in good health.
"Frizzled beef she said, sis a delicious
dish under all conditions, and this is the
way to frizzle it: Put tablespoonful OF
butter in spider over a quick fire, and
when hot add cup of thinly cut dried
beef, from which the rind has been re-
moved, and stir constantly with a fork
until it curls and looks cooked. Then re-
move the spider to a cooler part of the
stove, sift in tablespoonful of -four, mix
well with the meat, and then pour in cup
of milk and stir until the sauce is smooth,
serving on a hot platter"
Each dish when cooked was passed
around, examined and tested by the mem
bers OF the class. DR.. and Mrs. Lane
attended both lessons, the latter being so
deeply interested in the subject of better
cookery that she has been a regular at
tendant of Mrs. Ewing's course of lectures
at Golden Gate Hall.
Mrs. Ewing will deliver another lecture
on scientific cookery at Golden Gate Hail.

known as Janet Macdonald, and for whose
benefit the performance is given, is par
ticularly we'll known in the business world
of San Francisco, having at different
times acted as manager of agents for three
of the best-known book publishing firms
on the coast. Her advent in the theatrical
world has created widespread surprise
among her friends, whose name is legion,
and has also met with general appreciation,
for her natural dramatic ability has long
been recognized and appreciated by those
who know her best.
There is another lady in the cast who is
likely to attract more than ordinary atten-
ton on the stage whenever she sees proper
to accept an engagement. This lady is
down on the bill as "Louise Douglass, but
her friends know her as Mrs. Nelly. On
the death of her husband some months
ago Mrs. Nelly, formerly Miss Hasken,
found it necessary to work for livelihood
and determined to adopt the stage. Two
months ago she began studying with Bel
asco, and that she possesses marked ability
is evinced by the fact that her tutor
thinks she is sufficiently strong to play a
leading role. The cast is made up as fol-
lows:
Hon. George d'Alroy ............... Francis Dorsey
Captain Hantree. Edmund Crane
fccles Alfred LINDSEY
Dixon (servant of d'Alroy) ......... Walter Abbie
The Marquise de st. Maur. ...... Janet Mac Donald
Poiy DAISY LINDSEY
Caste is a strong comedy, and the
pupils of Belasco will doubtless get all out
of the play possible.

Annulled the Marriage.

Judge Murphy heard the representations OF
Annie and Conrad Scholtz, who were eager for
divorce but later agreed to have their mar
rage annulled on the discovery of the exist
ence of former husband of Annie. After
listening to the testimony of Mrs. Scholtz,
Sophie Dorgulh, John A. Phelps and Conrad
Scholtz, the court ordered the petition for
divorce denied and the marriage OF the parties
annulled. Defendant Scholtz admitted that he
had seen the first husband alive six months
after his contract marriage to the plaintiff.

difficult to put into execution. 1t may be
that the immense mass of grain will be
hauled to the docks and shipped out of the
country, or be taken overland in a lump
and distributed from the Mississippi east
and to Europe. Indications point to the
fact that it will he shipped off somehow
and somewhere, however, for as it is now it
is a nuisance to farmer and speculator
alike, and the general belief is, the sooner
it is out Of the way, the better.
