Some Famous Cooks.

Ude was the kitchen director of the ia
nous Crockford's of London. He was a
good cook and bombastic author His
famous axiom was that it was easier to
compose an oratorio or an opera than to
create a new entree, and that cook was
greater artist than Royal AcademicIan or
professor of music. Soyer was also an
extravagant and exaggerated writer on
culinary topics. Apart from his services
to the English troops during the Crimean
war, he is mainly remembered by his hun
dred guinea dish, to produce which hun
dred turkeys had to be killed, of which
each supplied only the two dark meat
Jumps on each side of the rump, called by
the French ''le sot Py laisse." Francatelli's
Modern Cook" has become a classic
through the ease with which his recipes
are susceptible of practical application.
He was Queen Victoria's chef and the in
novator in reducing the number of dishes
served at dinners of the time. Gouffe was
a culinary artist of the first class. His
book is standard grammar of the French
school of cookery, and no work treating of
superior domestic and higher cookery has
surpassed it in practical exactness and
palnstaking minuteness.-New York Sun.

Poor missionaries were often harassed and &C.

The Market Fell Yesterday One
Cent Below Fridays
Prices.
RESPONSIVE TO LIVERPOOL.
In Chicago, However, May Wheat
Advanced One and Half Cents.
Future Uncertain.

The wheat market failed yesterday to
continue on the upward grade which it has
been pursuing since Monday. Up to the
closing of the Produce Exchange call
board session Friday afternoon May wheat
advanced from 81 095s to 81 171S, but yes
terdav it dropped cent.
May wheat opened on the call-board ses-
sion at 81 1694 and closed weaker at 81 161S.
The market was a trife quieter than on
the previous day, there being less anxiety
to buy May wheat, particularly among
heavy spectators. This condition it was
pretty generally conceded on Change was
the result of weakening of speculative
tendencies combined with a responsive
feeling in foreign markets. The informal
session closed III cents higher than the
formal one, but street transactions later in
the day fell off to 81 161s, and some sales
were made at 81 10.
In Chicago May wheat, which closed
Friday at 64lS, opened yesterday morn
ing at 633z, but went up to 655S and closed
at 652s and y on the street. The CONT
mental demand was imprc~lng yesterday,
but English demand was given as dull
but stiff"
Out of sympathy with the British condi-
ton prices lost some factors of strength
here, and then il was noticed that the men
who bought largely early in the week were
resting yesterday and appeared to be
waiting developments. They evidently
did not wish TO go deeper until they would
have seen what next week might bring.
George McNear bought largely when
prices were at 8 and 10. 1t has been
roughly estimated that his purchases
amounted to 100000 centaIs or more, but
now that the price has advanced he and a
few other heavy buyers are not exerting
themselves.
A group of brokers stood in the Mer-
chants Exchange hall late in the day and
while engaged in attempts at selling and
buying discussed the situation.

Announcements on the Produce Ex-
change board contained the information
that the visible supply in the United States
decreased about 1000 900 bushels during
the weak. This decrease was taken as an
element of strength in the prices, since the
smaller the supply the frmer prices be-
come. In last month exports from the
Argentine Republic fell off considerably.

TESTING CAR TENDERS,
Two That Did Not Create Much
Enthusiasm Among
Supervisors.
One Knocked the Dummy Down With
Sufficient Force to Kill
Human Being.

Two tenders for the protection of the trav-
cling public from being mangled by troll
ley and cable cars were tested yesterday on
West Mission street in the presence OF the
Health and Police Committee of the Board
of Supervisors, representatives of the
Market-street system, the inventors and a
large concourse of iookers-on.
The first, which the owner claimed is in
successful use in Cincinnati, st. Louis and
other Eastern cities, consists of yielding
buffer, extending the full width of the
front of car and to height of about three
feet. 1t is so adjusted that the impact of
any body which comes in front of the car
causes scoop to drop and pick the body
up.
An ironbound dummy, rcprese nting a
full-grown man, was placed on the track
and the car run against it. The blow was
of sufficient force to have killed human
being and spectator remarked that the
corpse would look better if it had
been run over by the car. About the same
result was attained when the dummy was
laid fiat on the track.
The inventor was not satisfied with the
test, and said that he could obtain better
results with dummy stuffed with straw
and was promised another chance to prove
that his fender is of practical use
The second fender was called the Peck
ham. and consisted of a wooden frame
holding rigid scoop three inches above
the track. AS in the case of the other
fender, the dummy failed to go under the
wheels, but was thrown down with suf-
ficient force to jar it very much and bend
the iron stiffened legs out of shape.
The same impact would disable If not
kill a human being.
1t was decided to give both machines
consideration and perhaps another trial
at some future date.
