An Arctic Fox.
FROM the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record
One of the finest specimens of Arctic
foxes in the United States has been pre-
scented to the Geological Gardens by Cap
tain johnson of the Dark Salina, trader
to the far north. The little animal was
caught by the Esquimaux on the west
coast of Greenland last spring and was
presented to Captain Johnson while his
vessel was loading at Ivigtut for Phila-
delphia. The little stranger anxiously
awaits the arrival of cold weather, the re-
cent warm spell having caused him great
discomfort. But. as the winter storms,
with their ice and snow, will come along
pretty soon, he hopes to be himself again.
He was captured while catching fish along
the edge of huge glacier. Salmon, par
ticularly in winter, are the only food for
these animals to subsist on during the long,
dark days and nights in the frozen north.

1t Is hardly to be expected that the
Cubans, having wagad what they believe
to have been a righteous and successful
war for the acquisition of voice in their
own affairs, will be willing to take on
their own shoulders the, expenses that
Spain incurred in resisting their demands
and laying waste their territory. The
boot is on the other leg. The concession
OF autonomy Is practically an acknowl-
edgment that the Insurgents have been
victorious: the more determined among
them. and their American supporters, have
asserted frequently that they would be
sa tisfied with nothing short Of complete
tndepe rdence. but autonomy Is In itself
very great concession wrung from Spanish

From the Chicago Tribune,
Albert and Charles Huber, living few
miles south of Durand, Wis. have a herd
of about twenty-five full-blood bison and
some eighteen crossed bulls and heifers,
bison and native COW. About six years
ago they were hunting in the western part
of North Dakota and succeeded in cap
turing alive three young bison, bull and
two cows. and these they brought to their
farm here. The animals grew and thrived
amazingly, and are pastured in an Enclosure
of about 400 acres, running down to the
Valley of Rose Creek. where they have am
pie room and shelter. Experiments were
early made with crossed breeds. and 1t has
now been found that the cross is very sue
ceSSful, tine half-breed combining the do
cility of the domestic animals with the
endurance and large size Of the bison.
They are also very fine fur producers, aid
grow to maturity in less time than do
mestic cattle. The flesh of crossed ami
mails is very palatable, and the fur has all
the good qualities OF that of the bison, and
is softer and more silky. The crossed
bloods can also stand far more exposure
in winter than can the native COW.

giving approaches, is making covetous ref
erences to the reprehensible article, and

are not good, nor will any reasonable per-

then, who would sin somewhat against
health's laws the following recipe is sub
mitted as being the best of its kind-tested

Three pounds Of prime beef from the ten

oranges and two lemons, two pounds of
brown sugar. one pint of molasses, three
pints of boiled cider, one quart Of good

one tablespoonful Of mace, one and one

fuls each of ginger and allspice. one table
spoonful Of cloves, six tablespoOnfuls of
cinnamon, one-half pound of sliced citron.
two pounds of seedless raisins, two pounds
Of large seeded raisins, two pounds Of cur
rants and one glassful of grape jelly. Steam
the meat or let it simmer gently until ten

carefully, mixing all the dry ingredients
thoroughly; then add the cider, molasses.

brandy. Mix again thoroughly, pack In a
large stoneware jar. cover. and stand in a
cool. dry place. Mince meat should stand
about three weeks before using. to ripen
