rich Saturday Night.
Henry Perry, colored was placed under
arrest by Detective Hartigan this morning
and locked up at the sixth precinct station
on suspicion Of murderously assauIting Mr..
Frederick Enrich at an early hour Sunday
morning last or of being concerned in that
daring attempt at highv ay robbery. Perry
was III the employ of the Enrich Beef
Company up to about a year ago, and also
worked for the company for about a week
in August last. He was. therefore. familiar
With the custom and movements of Mr..
Enrich in making the weekly collections
from the branch stores every Saturday
night. Shortly after the shooting of Mr..
Enrich three colored men were seen run

of the men mentioned Another Of the trio,

One pint OF fine salt mixed with two
pints of wood ashes and mixed with
water will mend cvacts in stoves. When
clnkcrs accumulate in the CRATE, throw
in handful of salt, let stand few min
Utes and they will be easily removed.
A teaspoonful added to- the water in
which cut flowers are placed will pre-
serve them for n considerable time,
and little rubbed on the griddles be-
fore greasing will prevent cakes from
sticking. Damp salt will remove the
discoloration caused by tea on cups
and saucers: il sprinkled Immediately
over any spot where something has
boiled over on the stove, there will be
no odor, and the SPOT will be easily
cleaned. \ tablespoonful put in kero'

brighter light, and small pinch added
TO the starch will prevent it sticking to
the irons. If your ingram carpet looks

Sprinkle damp salt around where

If a small pinch is added to the whites

If the throat is very sore, wiring a

The Origin of Oxta,I soup.

During the reign Of terror in Paris in
1893 many of the nobility were re-.
duced to starvation and beggary. The
nbattoirs sent their hides fresh to the
tnnneries without removing the tails,
and in cleaning them the tails were
thrown away. One of these noble beg
gars asked for tail and it was willingly
given to him. lie took it to his lodging
and made (what is now famous) tho
first dish of oxtail soup; he told others
Of his good luck, and they annoyed tho
tanners so much that n price was put
upon them.

FOR THOSE WHO DIET.
The NutritIvs Valne and DigestIbility q
Food.


A mixed diet therefore seems to be
the only sensible one for man. The
three classes of nutrients, protein. fats
and carbohydrates. must each furnish
part of our food, and while it is true
that the vegetables can supply these
il is difficult to obtain from whole
some, easily digested vegetables these
nutrients in the proper proportions re-
quired for the bodily health
\ fair proportion of meats, or flesh.
forming food, in a mixed diet is one
fourth. the fats and carbohydrates be-
ing threc-fourths. The food stuffs
which most nearly supply these nu-
trients i'm the proper proportions are
those which pail on us less readily.
When any food does not supply these
in the proper amounts, instinct, appe-
tite and experience gtA6e us in the Sc
lection of the food which ought to be
added TO it. Thus meats deficient IN
fat are combined with some substance
in which the fat is relatively larger.
For example, liver, veal or chicken is
cooked with bacon. Pork supplies the
needed fat to make beans more nearly
a perfect food. Fish is cooked in but
ter or oil. Butter, eggs and cream are
mixed with starchy foods-rice, sage,
tapioca, potatoes, etc. Cheese, contain
ing fat, is added to macaroni, crackers
and cheese are favorite combination,
and bread and milk make n very COM
plete food for children. Whenever
one kind OF food is wanting in any par
| ticular constituent we invariably asso-
ciate it with another that contains an
excess of that constituent."-Prof.

do we know, and to our unspeakable
sorrow and confusion, the discomfort

tie short of desperate.
The only way. then. is TO prepare two
or three boxes or barrels with the nee.
essary articles of food and the few
cooking utensils that one must have in
order to prepare tolerable meal. These
should be kept until the last and put
onto the end of the load, so that they
can he removed among the first things.
Then they are set into the kitchen or
dining-room, where nothing is likely to
be piled upon them or in their way.
1t is wise always to prepare food for
several days in advance--bread, plain
cake, some ported meats or pot roast
or tongue that may be sliced and eaten
cold. Coffee and tea and the necessary
vessels in which to make them should
always be kept within reach, as well
as the milk can and a small pat of but.

All these things can be put into small

1t ought to be n rule with every family
TO pack the kitchen utensils that are
not actually required, so that the in.
coming tenant may find n little room

after all the furniture is in, but in these
days of special dates for such changes
there seems to be no help for it.
Matters of this sort are much worse IL

of successful and easy moving is, if pos
sible, to prepare the place, then send
the goods in installments.
There is quite a custom growing up
among householders of having a sale of

The most startling incident that has
occurred at a drawing-room of late
years was the queens refusal to receive
a certain lady just at the moment when
she was advancing in full court array
to kiss her majesty's hand. The queen
knew of her private reputation, and
so, though the lord chamberlain pro-
tested that, having been passed by the

A FRENcHMAN's THEORY.
Every Man Can Blow Himself Up and
Become "A Life Preserver.


Become Life Preserver.
Considerable interest has been
aroused by the announcement of an en-
traordinary method by IA French doctor
whereby everyone may become, as they
will, their own life preserver in case OF
an accident at sea. The inventor does
away with all artificial belts and other
floating appliances; he proposes, in
word, to initiate the cellular texture
beneath the human skin on the breast,
which, if filled with air, forms natural
pneumatic belt, by the aid of which one
can not only float oneself, but even sup
port another body. Although sounding
impracticable, this is far from being
so. 1t has proved that man weighing
about 16O pounds needs only about 200
cubic inches of air within his body in
order to float with his head above wa
teS. This amount of mir is easily insert
ed into the hollow space beneath the
skin by means OF an aseptic syringe.
Even simpler is the use of hollow
needle and thin rubber hose * inches
long, into which this needle is insert
ed. A little aseptic cotton placed in
the open end of the rubber hose is all
that is required. The skin is simply
raised, the hollow needle introduced
into il, and then the other end Of the
rubber tube is taken into the mouth,
and the mans own breath blown into
it. Two deep respirations which are
blown into each side of the breast would
prove amply sufficient 10 hoat a man,
