s FOR CHRISTMAS DINNER.
>OCC.cecs3eH&S9E0S6aOC

When washing the currants for
mincemeat and Christmas pudding.
Salt Lake housewives should bear in
mind that if left at all damp they
cause heaviness. and if they are dried
in a hurry before quick FIRE their
flavor is spoiled.
Baked instead of fried sausages are
excellent TO serve with roast turkey.
Allow the Christmas pudding to
stand for at least five minutes before
turning it out to serve; it lessons the
chance of sticking
Be sure and provide something less
trying for the digestive powers than
rlince pies and pudding, as some of
your guests may be unable to eat them.
The nearer the approach of Christ
mas the more expensive viii suet and
dried fruits become.
3 Raisins can now be bought ready
stoned, and currants washed, but not
stalked.
Medium-sized turkeys are really far
more tender than those gigantic birds
so proudly displayed by poulterers Of
Zion.
If you wish the legs of the turkey to
be at all eatable. it is necessary to have
the sinews drawn.
The breast of the turkey is consid-
cred by far the best part.
As you value your reputation as a
housekeeper. do not for get the horse

When the housekeeping purse viii al

palmer mince pies. etc, gives great

messengers who may come to the house

When chopping candied peel. be sure

Remember that muscatel raisins will

Shelled and shredded almonds stuck

A TIMELY RHYME.

Now the football gladiators
Watch the pigsk.n elevators.
While a host of wild spectators
Whoop 'er up
Every one is there TO hustle,
For the men OF nerve ami muscle.
Mean to make a mighty tussle
For the cup
Lawyers. merchants. doctors. preachers
Scholars. chappies charming creatures
Are among the striking features
At the game:
Rival cOlorS are appearing.
Girls are for the players fearing
And the fans are loudly cheering
Them by name
Now the ball goes backward flashing.
See some runner madly dashin2
For the goal.
But, alas, there's overhauiing,
And the runner soon 5 spraying,
And the others on him falling.
Ar1 the roll.
Soon they're up and everybody
Is disheveled, dirty, muddy,
Ard a few are bruised and bloody,
But its fun:
Then again they're running, trapping,
Here and there the ciaret tapping.
With sometimes a little scrapoing.
TIL its done
Then come noisy demonstrations.
Victors get a big ovation,
Whoc2 il up
Worse than wild stampede of cattle
Comes the racket, roar and rattle,
Winding up the famous battle
For the cup.

notified the United States that she is
satisfied with the friendly tone OF
President .Cleveland's message to con-
gress and the attitude of Secretary of

ALL ARE GUILTY.
Verdict of the Jury in the Famous
Denver Case.

Denver. Dec. 21.-The case of the
government against c. H. Dow, presi-
dent: Sidney C. McClurken, teller. of
the defunct Commercial National bank,
and Dr. o. Z. Miller of Chicago,
charged with misapplying funds and
deIrauding the deoositors OF the
wrecked institution. came to an end
late this afternoon, the Jury returning
a verdict Of guilty against all three of
Inc defendants.
The trial has consumed exactly seven
days in the federal court, and it has
been watched with interest by attor-
neys. deDositors and bankers in New
York and Chicago.
The Commercial National, owing to
the "kiting'' of Miller's checks for a
sum aggregating sl25000. was forced to
suspend during the great panic of 1893
The verdict will probably place the
convicted men behind the prison bars.

before a notary that on September q,
1894, James G. Fair acknowledged be-
fore him two deeds. Cooney did not
remember whether they were in ink or

veyed 20 Mrs. Craven Samsome. Pine
and Mission street properties, the es-
timated value Of which is something
like a million dollars. Cooney was
closely catechised and his replies
evinced great forgetfulness of the in
cidents surrounding the alleged filing
of the deeds.

of Texas. and Morgan. of Alabama, of
the foreign relations committee. join in
making an additional report on the
Cameron resolution. While they give
the majority report their unqualified
approval ccncurring IN all that is said
in that report, they deem it well to
present some additional reasons for
agreeing to ii, and for the passage of
the resolution. They quote the report
Of the committee on foreign relations
in 1873. when that committee was con-
sideriEg the senate bill making appro-
priations to facilitate the acquisition
of Cuba, by negotiations. and make
this comment on that report:
That report covers a period of SO
years. and sets forth the political con-,
ditioas and the disastrous effects of
Spanish rule during that time. They
are the same in their leading char
acterisrics, that existed at the begin
ming of ne insurrection that was set
on foot by the native population in
1868, in the outbreak at Yarra, which
was followed by ten years Of inter-
necine warfare, attended with horrible
Dutcheries. The causes that provoked
The uprising of the native Cubans are
the same that are stated in the report
Of the committee made ten years pre-
viously, 1853.

In the Chamber of Deputies.

Rome. Dec. 21.-In the chamber of
deputies today a member Of the Radical
party gave notice of his intention to
introduce a motion expressing the sym
pathy of the chamber of deputies with
the Cuban insurgents.
The Marquis Di Rudini, prime minis
ter, intimated that the ministry would
oppose the adoption of such a motion
by the chamber, his remarks evoking
violent protests on the part of the Radi-
calls. In the course of the discussion
Sisnor Imbriani the Radical leader,
declared that his party at least would
join the American and other civilized
people in hoping that the Cubans might
be victorious in their struggle for free

The Bishop Jealous.

The bishop OF Hereford having ex-
pressed very emphatic opinion on
the modern female costume, woman
writes TO London Truth that the real
cause of the Episcopal censure is not
his lordshiDs objection to feminine

And why. she asks. should a bishop
wear so feminine a garment as an
apron If woman cannot put on a
vest?

London, Dec. Accommodating upon
the declaration of Senior Canovas, the
Spanish premier, that he will brook no
interference with the sovereignty Of
Spain in Cuba, the Pail Mall Gazette
says that Senior Canovas is magnificent

naming to him, the Gazette SAYS. he

attitude for resolute action.

DUES MUCH DAMAGE.
HAVANA EXCITED OVER TRIO
ARCoLA'S WORK.
Insurgent Guerrilla Lately Defeated
Two Spanish Columns and Cap
tured Three Towns Held by Span
ish Garrisons.

New York, Dec. 21-A Times special
from Key West, Fla, says:
Passengers last night from Havana
report that Havana military circles
are agitated over the reports coming
from Matanzas province of the doings
of the insurgent guerrilla Trio Arcola.
He has captured three towns held by
Spanish garrisons. He captured two
convoy trains near La Perca last week,
and took 100 prisoners, all of whom.
save one. a Cuban, were released. He
was summarily executed, Captain
Arcola saying. so it is reported. that it
was hard enough to fight the Spanish
without having the Cubans turn
AGAINST them.
IN the towns OF Madruga. Limones
and St. Nicholas, the Spanish garrisons
are fairly besieged inside their lines of
sentinels, the insurgents picking off all
who venture outside.
An insurgent band of 200 was dis
persed by Major Arco, of the Spanish
column, Saturday, the insurgents los
ing their leader and ten soldiers, while
the Spanish lost lieutenant and 10
soldiers killed and wounded.
GOMEZ ADVANCING.
Gomez is reported as advancing
westward. but being incumbered by
his artillery and supplies. his progress
is slow. 1t is reported, also. that the
old Cuban general was terribly cut up
over the tragic death of his beloved
son, and that he has sworn a terrible
oath to make the Spanish suffer for it.
He believes that Maceo and francesca
were decoyed to their death by Spanish
treachery.
It is rumored that trouble of some
kind has been reported from the east
side of the trocha. though all informa-
ton is refused. It is wellsknown that
the soldiers on the trocha have sent
in complaints to the captain general
as 10 their treatment, and he has
ordered a investigation. At one place
over 100 soldiers deserted to the in
surgests, as they claimed that they
were dying, penned up in the swamp
and with insufficient food supplies.
Further trouble of this kind has just
occurred on the trocha near the edge
of the swamp, and Weyler is greatly
incensed over il.

ducts OF the garden and poultry yard.
In carrying out his course of instruc-
ton it is proposed to utilize the splen-
didly equipped mechanical department
the entire resources Of the engineering
and scientific schools of the University,
embracing their ample laboratories ana
splendid outfits of scientific apparatus
ana the Libraries OF the Agricultural En-
pertinent Station and University, to-
sether with the extensive and valu-
able collections of the Experiment Sta
ton. 20 strengthen and develop the work
OF the Agricultural College.
With the completion OF the Organiza-
ton OF this college by the Board OF Re
gents there is no longer any ground for
complaint as to lack of facilities for in
structiOn in Agriculture, as it is thought
that no stronger or more practical
course in agriculture is offered at any
agricultural college in the United States.
DR.. Myers. in submitting his report
upon the organization of this course to
the Beard of Regents, said in regard to
il: The purchase OF the farm and the
organization of the Agricultural Col
lege mark a grand epoch in the history
OF the West Virginia University and of
the Agricultural Experiment Station.
The farm may become a most valuable
adjunct TO the University in strength
ening the educational resources, as we'll
as very much charging the usefulness
OF the Experiment Station in develop
ing the agricultural interests of the
State 1t now remains for the farm
erS of the State TO send their sons TO
the University to avail themselves Of
the facilities offered There is no long
er any necessity nor any excuse for any
young man leaving the State in order
to secure ample training for agricultur-
al pursuits 1t is said that there was
some difference of opinion in the Board
as to the advisability of organizing an
agricultural college. as there has never
been the demand in this State for spe-
cial agricultural education that has ex-
listed in other States, but the majority
of the Board were of the opinion, it
seems, that the college should be or
ganized and an effort made to create
sufficient demand among the citizens of
the State TO justify its existence. The
question with the Board now is, will the
farmers avail themselves of the oppor-
tunitieS offered. free of all tuition?
