Mr.. John Wauamaker, the
Philadelphia merchant, former
Postmaster-General and recent
candidate for the United States
Senate, takes a gloomy view of
the outlook for business. In an
address at the annual meeting of
the Business Mems League, of
Philadelphia, last Friday he
said: 1.-THE country is not pros
porous. * The tide will
soon set in strongly against the
Republican party unless the de-
preston of business is altered.
Idleness and want breed bitter
discomfort which will never be
overcome until there is ample
employment"

The trucking interest Of the
State has been more successful
this season than for two or three
years past. The spring was
rather late, but the prices OH
truck have held up better than
for several years, and truckers
are encouraged. This is es-
pecially the case with straw
berries and cabbage. The po-
tato crop was much injured by
the frost and it is too early to
tell much about what the crop

PUTS ON n CAP.

The bribery matter coming as it
does from the editor Of the APPEAL
and thu STATE Printer emanate5 from
a source that can hardly be given
serious attention. Those knowing
the Hon. j. G. Mccarthy will very
much DOUBT that he was ever offered
$1,000 that he did net accept unless
the offer was raised by soma one else
which is not probable in the present
case.
So far as The News is concerned
this controversy is ended at the pres
ent tiTne.-NeWS.
The..APPEAL eve charged anybody
connected with the News as having
attempted to hrjb4 Joe Mccarthy An
allusiOD wa made to the matter in
SATURDAYS Issue, aud Mr.. Dunn Of
the News, meeting M. Mccarthy
asked him if that article in the APP
PEAL alluded 70 him. Mccarthy re-
piled.
Il suppose it does as [ once told Mr..
Davis that YOU had offered me $1,000
State Printing Office. You made ne
the offer on G. Street, Virginia City,
and I told other parties of it at the
time"
You can't prove it." said Dunn.
mo I can't said Mr.. Mccarthy. 90
there were no witnesses present. but
I am willing to make an affidavit that
You made the offer"
"Then L will make a counter aft
davit that [ did not"
mo one is holding you if you desire
to p~erjure yourself"
With this Dunn walked off mutter-
ing about making it hot for some
one' and the incident closed. AS Mr..
Dunn was not alluded to 10 the
article, people who heard the talk be
tween the two on the street, wonder
why Dunn so quickly put on the cap.
If Mr.. Dunn has any explanation to
make of this matter, our columns are
open.

The Green Glass Manufacturers

Simon Burns wrote Section 80, and
his language was followed word for

lnufacturers of spectacles, eye

themselves, adopted without the
change Of a single word.
Cotton ~spinners and cotton manu-

The section of the cutlery schedule
referring to pocket knives and table
knives was prepared a month before
it was given out by the committee 1t

weeks before n one knew what that
section was to be. At the same time
a majority Of the Ways and Means

1t is a fact that the wool manufact-

How to Convert n Rare Steak Rem

How to Convert n Rare Steak REM
nnnt Into a Tidbit.
The remains of rare steak may be
made into an excellent dish as follows:
Chop the meat fine, and for each cup
of meat add teaspoonful of chopped
ham and half as much bread crumbs as
you have meat. Moisten the crumbs
with little milk and mix them with
the meat. Season highly with salt and
pepper and chopped parsley, or a little
onion juice may be substituted for the
parsley. Beat one egg light and add
1t to the other ingredients.
Take piece of fresh brown paper
and butter it well. Place the meat mix
ture in the middle OF the paper, shape
it into a square loaf; fold the paper
around the meat and over the ends, as
when doing up parcel, turning tie
ends under the loaf so that they will
remain in place without Irvine. Place
the parcel in baking pan and put it
in hot oven and bake for rs minutes.
Then carefully remove the paper from
the meat and place the Drowned loaf
upon heated platter.
This is delicious when served with
bcrseradish sauce, or a tomato sauce
may be poured around it.-Chicago

Beef Tea for InvaIids.

A cooking school formula for the
preparation of beef tea that is nutri-
tious advises: Take beef which has
it not too fine, add pint of cold water,
and stir with wooden spoon until it is
pulpy. Then let it stand in the icebox
for two hours. Put it into porcelain
lined or enameled iron kettle; add a
little salt or bay-leaf or Glove or a
stick of celery. When the kettle is on
the fire it should be stirred constant
ly until it has reached the steaming-
point. 1t must never boil. The white
of an egg is used to clarity it, and it is
strained through double cheese-cloth.
