there never was greater man than Richard
Bolland, the original owner Of the bake
shop. Sixty one years ago the Duchess of
Kent and her young daughter the Princess
Victoria, visited the city for the purpose of
officially opening a new bridge that was to
bring all kings of importance and prosper
ity to the town. OF course, it was an i'm
mense event for Chester, and everyone did
something to make the visit of the great
FOL 5 memorable.
Richard Bolland was ambitious, but poor,
and he churned his brains nightly to de-
wise some attractive method of showing his
loyal appreciation of the visit. In happy
moment he decided to make some small
cakes, of transcendent excellence, put them
in fancy box, and present them to the
young Princess. Happy thought! Potent
cakes! Great Bolland!
The next year, the little Princess, whose
palate had been enchanted by the flavor of
the Chester cakes, became Queen of England,
and ono of her first acts after her accession,
in 1887, was the appointment of Boland as
one of the Queens Warrant Holders. So
much for the power of box of small cakes
How long the flavor of those cakes lin
gered in the royal memory is shown by the
fact that, twenty-five years later, when the
Prince of Wales was to be married, Victoria
gave commission to Bolland to prepare
the wedding cake for that great event. 1t
was no ordinary wedding cake that Mr..
Bolland produced, either, and its exhibition
earned him such tremendous fame that
every English bride of wealth and promi-
hence who was married since then has had
the Chester baker prepare her wedding cake.
Defendants of the original Bolland now
conduct the shop, but they use the same re-
cipe that proved so successful in the days Of
Nictoria's childhood, and still bake cakes
for the royal family.

sweet potato row seems to thrive and pro-
duce well when those in hills fail. The
success of the vines is probably due to the
fact that the roots of the melon vines run
up and down in the rows and have greater
feeding area, whereas when three or mere
vines are grown in hills ten feet apart there
is competition between them, which is not
the case with the single vine. Try the ex-
pertinent OF growing melons and cucumbers

If one gets his fodder corn in the ground
at the right time he should not SOW quicl,
maturing variety Better results will be
got from one of the slow, big varieties--a
variety that makes a large growth OF stalk
and foliage. 1t must be borne in mind
that the probability of ears being caught by
frosts cuts practically no figure in growing
fodder corn to reinforce pastures. We
want green feed, not only in late July, hut
also in late September. But one should
not put off sowing the fodder corn until all
the other seeding is done. Good results are
not obtained from feeding the corn when
quite young and lushy.

Pick over the garden strawberry bed
every evening and take off only those that
are ripe, leaving the partially ripe ones
until the next day. If this is done, instead
of picking all that are turning red, as is
usually the case, the flavor will be better
and the berries sweeter. Nearly all berries
sent to market are picked in a somewhat
green condition, which is unnecessary
where a supply for home use is grown.

Late cabbage seed should be sown at
once, as delay of week or more may be
too late unless the ground upon which they
are to be transplanted is very rich. There
are some difficulties to encounter, such as
seed not terminating, attacks of insects,
etc, which makes it an advantage to SOW
the somewhat early rather than to put the
sowing off until later.

The advantage of growing early plants in
small hotbed instead of purchasing them
may be noticed by comparing the prices
asked for early cabbage, tomatoes, cauli-
flower and egg plants by seedsmen and
others who have them for sale. If the far
mer does not have small hotbed for early
plants he will consequently prefer to buy
cabbage rather than to grow them when
the young plants are SO costly.

Hills for tomatoes should be carefully
prepared. When manure is thrown in the
hill it should he thoroughly mixed with
the soil so as to prevent heating too much,
especially when the season is dry. Some
growers dig a hole, put in a shovel of de-
composed manure and then pass along the
rows with forkrd hoe, so as to mix the
soil and manure well and to make the hills
large. After setting out the plants water
i poured around them and dry soil covered
over the water, which puddles the soil
around the roots and leaves the surface dry.

COUNTING
OHIO'S VOTE
Three Very Close Counties IN the
Buckeye State.
TALK OF AN IMPENDING CRISIS
Democratic State Chairman Charges Fraud
in the Close Counties, and Every
Point is Being Contested. Bush
nell's Plurality over
$4,000.

Columbus. o., Nov. 5.-NTany tall
about a crisis in Ohio. Some believe
that a crisis is impending. The talk
about q combine in the legislature
against Senator Hanna has subsidized
pending the interest in the official
counting of the vote in close counties
AS the official canvass of the vote in
the SS counties proceeded yesterday
the Republican plurality on the state
ticket Increased, and on the Legislative
tickets It appeared to be getting to-
ward a close shave.
While the Republican plurality on the
state ticket exceeds 2S,0OO. the vote on
the legislative ticket is almost as close
as 1t could be. For this reason there
is still unusual anxiety at the respec-
tive state headquarters of both parties.
The Republicans still claim that the
legislature stands 70 Republicans to 70
Democrats on joint ballot for senator.
and that thGr candidates for repre-
sentatives in three of the close coun-
tes-Delaware, Wood and Noble-have
been elected by small pluralities. A
change Of 70 votes, properly dtet
uted, in these three counties would
have given these three Representatives
to the Democrats. Then the legislature
would have stood 70 Republicans and r:
Democrats on Joint ballot for senator.
Chairman Nash says that the Re
publicans have a safe majority of five
on joint ballot in the legislature. He
admits that the p|luralities are small
in some counties, but claims they are
safe. He has no doubt of the result.
except possibly in Wood county, and in
the event of the loss OF hat representa-
tive, he says, the legislature would still
stand "A Republicans to II Democrats.
and have a majority Of three on Joint
ballot for senator. Chairman Nash
says there are no longer any of the
state senators in doubt, and the SEN
ate will stand 10 Democrats to II Re
nuhiioansA
Chairman McConvile charges fraud
in the close counties and in some Re
publican counties. He a y nearly all
the close counties have gone Republic
can heretofore, and the Republicans
still nave the machinery in these coun-
ties. He says the returns have been
held back, and it looks suspicious.
Other counties have completed their
counting, while the doubtful counties
are still at 1t. He says the result was
known definitely I'm Cincinnati Wednes-
day morning, and he cannot get definite
results even today from Cleveland,
where he expects the vote to be very
close on two or three members Of the
Legislature. Chairman McConville WIFI
remain here until the official count of
all the counties is completed,
Late last night 1t became known that
the court would be rcsorted to for the
purpose of preventing boards Of cleo
lions from issuing certificates to the
Republican candidates in certain coun-
ties. The cases will be brought in the
lower courts and thence 20 the supreme
court as soon as possible. The Repub-
liean state committee has also a law
yer preparing cases of contest.

could not be entertained, but that an offer of
s., 1000 would be given consideration.
The following communication from Boz
ough Surveyor Gregory was also submitted
BY instructions, / visited the streams ON
the Arnold Estate last evening, in company
with three of your honorable body. The
tests / made were crude, on account of not
being notified in time to have a weir made.
Three tests we're made, one with a bucket.
and two with floats. The bucket test shows
a flow of 172, 800 gallons per day. The first
float test, 100000 gallons per day, and the
second float test ina different location, shows
S2l 900 gallons per day. These tests give
only about go per cent. Of the how Of the
stream. Hence bucket test would give
2Ss, 900 gallons first float test 400, 900 gallons,
and second float test $50, 600 gallons per day.
The stream north of this one flows about
1901 600 gallons per day.
It was decided to lay consideration of the
matter over until it can be learned whether
or not the H%oneybrook or other mine work
ings are liable to effect the stream.
It was decided to lay water pipes on May
berry alley; also from Oak street to Centre
street, IN Catherine street; south of May
berry alley to "Klondike," and also to two
houses on Cherry street.
William Chalmers appeared and asked
that an electric light be placed at the west
ern extremity Of Centre street, and that a
fire plug be placed within reach Of the same
point.
The request for light was referred to the
lamp and watch committee with a similar re-
quest concerning the road to Turkey Run.

NEW RECRUITS.
Another Increase in the Sons of Veterans
Membership.

Another Increase in the Sons of Veterans
Membership.
At a meeting of Henry Horncastle Camp
No. 40, Sons of Veterans, last night forty
new recruits were mustered in by the camps
special degree team, increasing the member
ship to 1877. There are eighteen additional
recruits on the list, so that within a short
time the membership 'ill exceed 200. This
is a brilliant record for the camp. But a few
weeks ago its membership was less than
fifty. Hard and persistent work on the part
of the members has brought forth good fruit
and there is reason to believe that the boom
is not Of a spasmodic character and the
camp will remain among the societies of
large membership. Among the visiting
members of the organization in attendance
at the meeting last night were Division
Inspector Weightman, of Mt. Carmel, who
inspected the camp and made highly COM
mandatory comments on its condition,
Division Commander Scott, of Milton, and
Past Division Commander Johns, Of Mt.
Carmel. Several addresses were made and a
very enjoyable social session followed the
routine business.
