HOW Gl. EAT MEN EAT TURKEY
Views of Mckinley, Cleveland. Bryan,
Depew ct al. on the Bird

personal friend of President
Mckinley is authority for the statement
that the major has long ago given min
ute instruction in regard to the prepara-
ton of his Thanksgiving turkey. and
that for many years past the order has
not varied an iota. He likes his turkey
roasted but not stuffed and, is quoted
as saying that a chef who would
stuff the noble bird is fellow nit
for treason, strategem and spoiIs," He
prefers twelve-pound fowl, verN fat
and well spread with butter. The piecs
de resistance, however, is the garnish-
ment, which consists of double string
OF sausages. fried and served hot with
the turkey.
In this connection. the Thanksgiving
preferences of few wellknown men
may prove interesting. President Cleve-
land likes his turkey well stuffed with
biscuit or cracker stuffing, black with
sage and pepper. He wants the bird we'll
dressed, with skewers and ribbon bands,
or strings of smilax and punches of pars-
ley.
Ex-President Harrison likes a roast
ed turkey stuffed with big Indiana
chestnuts. He says that in his estimation
there is only one class of people who
have mastered the art of properly cook
ing a Thanksgiving turkey and that dis
tinction belongs to the country girls of
his native state.
William Jennings Bryan has, to use
his own words. "a great mouth for tur-
key" and likes it in any guise or dis
guse. 1t is therefore safe to say that he
will do full justice to that course at
Denver's banquet next Thursday.
Chauncey M. Depew can make bet
ter after-dinner speech on THANKSGIVING
if his turkey is cooked by black NAM
my from "ole Virginia" According to
the genial Chauncey. the genuine south
ern darkey. with a knack amounting to
necromancy, can spice and sweeten the
fowl till tits a drop of nectar fit for the
sods-or the critical palate of an epi-
cure.
DR.. T. Dewitt Talmage is cosmopoH-
tan in his tastes, and avows that his
turkey must be stuffed with small Eng
lish oysters and ornamented with
fence" of French potato strips, fried
brown and crisp and served piping hot.
The good doctor also dotes on Vienna
bread fingers as a proper accompani-
ment.
John r. Tanner is fond of great big
turkey-the bigger the better-Weil
roasted and basted in the good, old-fash-
ioned way our mothers all used to know
SO well. He likes the oyster stuffing, rich
gravies and entrees of mashed potatoes
and turnips. Cranberry sauce and pies
and apple, pumpkin and mince will com
plete the menu.

crepit old women who earn a rather pre-
carious livelihood by picking up and re-
selling the waste cotton that falls from
the bales about the streets and ware
houses, is one well known among the
brokers who goes by the whimsical cog
nomen of Nom Katrine.
Nom Katrine is a little bit of a wiz
ened negress, almost too old to walk
and quite too blind to see, but she owns
an unfailing source of revenue in the
shape of little black and tan terrier,
Voudoo by name, that is as expert a cot
ton picker as one would wish to see.

thing else, but the Duchess Consuelo
is religiously inclined and the Sunday

conspicuous feature is the tomb of the

bills for other people to pay his careless
ness is quite remarkable.
Not only does he control the chef and
the caretaker of the wine cellar, but
he maps out the amusements for each
day. Lord Lonsdale has spent $200, coo
in a single week in entertaining the
prince, and it is fair to assume that th-
expenses at Blenheim during the great
fete will not fall much below that stu
pendous figure.
Even for a Vanderbilt this is an enor-
nous amount to get rid of in a single
week. 1t is understood. however, that

Mr.. William X. Vanderbilt, father of
the young duchess. has determined that
nothing shall be lacking in financial
way to make his daughters social sue
cess absolute. AS is well known, the
young duke has next to nothing In the
way of available money. All of his
wealth is entailed and the property sadly
run down by the extravagant encroach-
ments made upon it during the careless
lifetime of his father.
A BEAUTIFUL CHAPEL.
Already a good half million dollars
have been spent by the young duchess
in furnishing up the great house and in
covering up the spots made barren by
the late duke, when money-raising fit
seized him. Particular attention has
been paid by the duchess to the private
chapel in Blenheim, one Of the most
beautiful interiors of its kind in the
country.
In the days of the former duke this

INTERESTING FOR AMERICANS.
Americans should he deeply interested
in this fete at Blenheim, for the single
reason that American dollars will foot
the bills. And these bills will amount
to a pretty penny. Entertaining the
Prince of Wales and select company OF
dukes and duchesses is not responsi-
bility to be lightly assumed. The prince
is practically the master of the house
during his stay. That is British eti-
quette The family chef consults with
the secretary of his royal highness each
day and receives orders for the menu
for the day The cost never bothers the
prince. He is notoriously careless about
heaping up bills which he must pay him
self, and when it comes to accommodating
