A FRAUD DISCOVERED.
c. Z. Clark Represents Himself - n
Agent OF the Northwestern.

C.. Z. Clark Represents Himself - an
Agent OF the Northwestern.
Some time ago Frank W. Parker. Puget
Sound agent Of the c., ST. p, NJ. & o. rail-
road. otherwise known as the Northwest
ern. received from Tacoma business man
q receipt for 81 signed by c. E. Clark. The
merchant stated that he had paid Clark the
money for an advertisement which was to
appear in a book which Clark was getting
out for the Northwestern road, the title of
which was to be California, Washington
and Oregon and he wrote TO Mr.. Parker
to ascertain how long before the book
would appear.
Parker scrutinized the receipt and saw
that IL bore in an upper corner the we'll
known trade mark of the road. But he
had heard nothing Of such a man or such
a scheme. and he felt pretty sure that II
his road were behind Il he would have
heard OF both. He replied to the Tacoma
gentlemen. merely stating that he knew
nothing about the matter, but would look
1t up. He did look it up. with the discov-
cry that some fellow has been fraudulentiy
palming himself of on Northwestern news
papers and business men generally as an
authorized agent of the Northwestern
road. without any authority whatever from
that corporation. A letter to headquarters
brought Mr.. Parker this information. and
General Passenger and Ticket Agent W. b.
kniskern has issued a circular letter warn
ing the public against Clark.

The Musical Cat.

My blue Persian cat is gentle, senti-
mental creature. slightly inclined to
melancholy, and strangely, even
troublesomely, affectionate 10 one OF
two select friends. She had been accus-
toned. from the time l first had her
tlast summer, to be continually with
me. generally on my lap or shoulder.
When the winter evenings began to
draw on 1 took TO playing the piano,
which l had not done during the sum-
mer. The cat could not understand
why, when this was going on. she was
not allowed TO take up her usual posi-
lion. In order, 1 suppose. 10 show her
disapproval of my occupation. she
would continually climb up, either on
TO me or the piano. and pat my hands
with her paws, and pull them off the
keys very gently, and without scratch
ing at ALI. This became such a nui-
sance that l could not play unless I
put her ont of the room; but she would
Sit outside and howl. and when any
one opened the door she would rush in
and begin da capo. At last l thought
Of a way of treating her viz. like a
rational being. / placed a chair next
TO the music stool tas though for a
dueD and put her on it. and explained
The matter to her: and from thar time
1 have no further trouble, unless / for
get 70 put her chair for her, when l be-
gin TO play.-LondOn Spectator

The common mushroom never grows
in the woods. Remembering this the
collector will not eat supposed mush-
rooms found in the woods, and may
thus save his family the unpleasant
necessity of a coroner's inquest. The
gills of the common mushroom are pink
or dark brownish purple. but can be
distinguished only by accurate knowl-
edge of their individual appearance.
\ large genius, the lactarius. is known
by its exuding milk when the stems or
caps are broken. None of them is
poisonous. several of them are large,
white and snowy; with two exceptions
found in the woods in large quantities.
On tasting. one is disposed to think
that spontaneous combustion has oc-
CURED in the mouth, but it loses its
fiery qualities on cooking, and, though
it is a coarse species, is much more
tender and savory than many of the
vegetables we eat.
Here let me say that in cooking all
varieties Of toadstools they should be
cooked precisely rs is the oyster. The
time of cooking should be determined
by the consistency of the variety. Salt,
pepper and butter are the only necessa-
ries as seasoning, and the aim should
be to preserve as nearly as possible
natural flavor. 1t is culinary heresy
