The queen, whose taste in food is
rather simple, has penchant for GER
tain oatmeal soup, delicately prepared,
and with which she invariably drinks a
glass of white sherry, though, when
say glass. should say a cup of gold,
once belonging to Queen Anne. Beef is
placed upon Her Majesty's sidetable
every day in the year, for, like many
other hard workers, she has implicit be-
lief in the virtues Of beef. The states
man who devotes his whole energies to
! important duties, the painter who tolls
earlyland late, the lawyer who can new
err let his brain repose, these men, I
find, are all advocates for the roast beef
Of old England And I may add that
Adelina Patti, who owes so much of the
beauty of her voice to strict dieting,
declares she can only Sing upon beef,
and has always fillet prepared for her
some few hours before she appears eth
er at an opera or concert. The Queen
frequently orders picked cucumbers
(for which the late Prince Albert owned
to a special weakness) to be served with
her beef I may tell that the days
menu is submitted every morning to the
queen, who strikes out the dish she does
not fancy. and orders another that she
does; also that she keeps, to the good
old practice OF having the cooks name
called out as each dish is brought to
table.
, The German emperor is somewhat
prejudiced In his tastes. He does not,
think, care for any dishes save those
made in Germany" although, out Of
courtesy, hewill often praise the plates
which are offered to him at Osborne.
Bier-suppe, Obst -suppe, and Ganse-
braten all these he appreciates vastly,
and invariably drinks of a brand of
champagne specially manufactured for
him His wife, the empress, may say,
prefers, in her devoted way, those dish
es agreeable to the palate of her lord,
and rises regularly at six o'clock in the
| morning to herself prepare the early
cup Of coffee without which the Kaiser
cannot begin his day.
The King and Queen Of Italy, / learn,

scribed as "a terrible compound of arti-
chokes, chickens livers, calves brains

The Pope's menu is the most simple
which could be named. A cup of cof-
| fee and milk, a roll (no butter) for
breakfast. Soup, plain meat, pastry
! end fried vegetables, with one glass of
| Burgundy for midday dinner At six
o'clock a cup Of bouillon, and at sup
per little cold meat The Pope takes
his meals alone, according to tradition.
| The Empress of Austria and the EN-
press Frederick of Germany may be de-
scribed as of a sweet TOOTH Both

plosive in earthern crooks for two
years, and there was not money enough
in the country to secure a helper.
Farmers would drive three miles out of
their way to avoid passing the factory,
and no visitors came to see how the
stuff was made.
The second man ever killed by tor
pedo explosion was so badly shattered
that Colonel Myers picked up all that
remained Of him and carried it to IL
tusville in a handkerchief Colonel My
ers built twelve different factories in
different parts of the oil re-
glons from 1868 to 1885, when he
retired from the business. and some of
them he rebuilt several times after eX-
plosions had demolished them. Only
one of the original factories stands in
tact to-day. Colonel Myers made seye-
raj fortunes and spent his money like
prince, as was the custom of the oil re-
gion. But fortunately for him, he still
has snug sum laid by.
He has kept daily report of his sew
enteen years work of making nitro
glycerine, and of his work as shooter.
The other day he figured up that in his
time he had made just a trif1e less than
eight million pounds of nitro lycerine,
Some days he turned out as much as
five thousand pounds. His records are
as carefully kept as the pension rec
ords. For several years he was super
intendent for the Roberts Torpedo COM
pany, which had monopoly of the
business once, and it is doubtful if
there is living to-day a man who has
a set of records of the business that
will begin to compare with his. He has
the signatures of more than one hun
dred shooters who have been blown up
and he has had some exciting expert
ences himself. He knows how it feels
to be blown up. One day in 1882 a fac
tory on Bolivar Run, containing thirty
two hundred pounds of nitro glycerine,
blew up. Colonel Myers had just
stepped outside the factory, and was
not more than fifty feet away when the
explosion took place. He was hurled
through the air a distance Of one hun
dred feet, and he was almost nude
when he recovered his senses. but,
strange to relate, he was not seriously
injured. His coat was blown off and
torn to tatters. He lost his nerve after
this experience, and four years later
retired from the business. New York
