Fruit Creams OF Former DAYS.

To those old enough TO remember the
fruit creams Of former days there al
ways seems to be something lacking in
the modern creams, delicate though
these may be. The reason of this is that
the gelatin, with which these latter are
almost always mixed to save the pro
longed whipping, destroys both the fre.h
flavor and the velvety orispness obtained
by the simpler, If more fatiguing, proc.
ess Of whipping together the sweetened
fruit juice and the cream. The right way
Is to obtain the fruit juice and sweeten
it well. II this is omitted, the cream
will pretty certainly curdle. Next stir
1t into sufficient cream for the juice to
color and flavor nicely, and then whip
the whole together till Of the proper
consistency.

BARTRAN'S SAW MILL
GOES UP In SMOKE.
LOSS ABOUT SIX THOUs-
AND DOLLARS. NO I'M
SURANCE.

Shortly after noon last Thursday, q
large volume Of smoke was seen aris-
ing west Of town. At first it was re-
ported that the boarding house at Bar
trans mill was burning but soon it was
learned that the mill was on fire. 1t
was to far away for the fire company to
render any aid and a strong wind
which was blowing at the time, quick
ly communicated the fire to the dry
kiln adjoining in which were packed
six or eight hundred thousand shin
giles and in very few minutes the
whole plant was a seething mass Of
flames and was entirely destroyed.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The mill had not been running for a
few days as they were waiting to allow
McKinley's drive to pass so that they
could bring up some logs from the 9TH
er river. That morning small fire
had been built in the arch as they We're
intending to start up and gum out a
saw but they afterwards gave it up and
brought the saw to the Gerry Lumber
Co.'S. mill.
The proprietor, Mr.. Bartran, had
been at work around the mill all of the
forenoon and just as he was going to
dinner he looked into the arch and
found the fire nearly out SO that he
thought it hardly possible that it could
have originated from the arch. He
thought that a spark had probably
blown from the fire pit and might have
lain Wondering in the saWdust for sew
eral days and was finally famed into a
blaze by the heavy wind then blowing.
The loss upon the mill and contents
was about six thousand dollars with no
insurance. The loss was a severe one,
not only to Mr.. Bartran, but to the
village as we'll, as the mill gave en-
ployment to about thirty men and run
summer and winter.
Mr.. Bartran had recently purchased
the mill of the Union National Bank
of Oshkosh. who secured it on a mort
gage from 0. w. Avery & Co.. He
had made quite extensive repairs on it
and had it in good running shape. It
is very doubtful if the plant will be re-
bulls.
