In appointing the editor OF this paper
a delegate TO the gold mining convention"
says Tom LeftwiCh in his Larned Eagle
optic, Governor Leedy exercised the most
exquisite discrimination. 1t would be hard
for him to find anyone so thoroughly in
formed regarding the use and abuse of the
yellow metal as a Kansas Democratic ed
itor, who always uses It. ground to pow
der, in connection with diamond dust, to
dry his correspondence, instead OF employ
ing the modern blotting paper which has
come into general use with people in less
afiuent circumstances"

Mad with terror they reared, wheeled,
zigzagged: plungihg and Kicking they
galloped here and there; with blood
red nostrils and floating names they
bolted in all directions to the jeopardy
of the orchestra and the terror of the
drums add kettles in the fields. One
by one they disappeared over the hori-
son, white with foam, still snorting
and rolling their eyes. 1t was days
before some of them were found, many
were emfecbled, still wild and terrified.
Some had reached the mountains, 9TH
ers had penetrated the woods or be-
come cngulfed in the marshes. His
majesty, however, was well amused.
The tricks Ludwig played on his
horses he also played on his servants.
Every one about him was in danger-o
life and limb. He injured at least
thirty persons and one he killed. 1t is
not to be forgotten, however, that he
was mad, and ought long before this
to have been under medical charge.
For some offences his attendants were
confined in the dungeons Of his castles;
for others they were banished to Amer
ica. One miserable lackey was charg-
ed with looking too curiously at his &C.
centric master. For this he compelled
to wear a black mash over his face for
a whole year. Another was simply
stupid, nc had seal set on his fore
head. The King himselfpaid rcverent

COOKING AND SWIMMING.

One of the niceties of cooking which
mark the difference between the eX-
pert and the novice, or the careful and
the careless cook, is found the opera
tion of skimming. Many cooks can
not skim successfully. They do not
get all the grease off the soup, and
they fail to touch just the light mo-
ment for attac king the scum which
rises on the first boiling up of potatoes
and other vegetables. Soup should
be skinned patiently and thoroughly,
and at the last moment any globules
of grease that remain before pouring
it into the tureen should be taken up
with piece of clean blotting paper,
held edgewise. Grease from the inva-
lids cup of beef tea or from bowl of
gravy can be removed in the same
manner. For the scum from vegeta-
bles or broths it is the first boiling up
which brings it to the surface, where
it should be quickly skinned before
it it drawn back to separate and dis
seminatc beyond all power of removal.

sitting in the dining-room near 4 table
