BOYS LEARN TO COOK.
Novel Departure in the Cincinnati
High School.

Cincinnati Oct. 16.-One of the most
unique features in education that has
ever been tried in this city is a cheap
cooking class for boys, which was started
at Hughes high school yesterday.
Seven young men out of an enrolment
of ten were present and were initiated by
Miss Hull, Hthe teacher, into the first mys-
teries of that science, which their sisters
have hitherto claimed as their almost ex-
elusive prerogative.
The class assembled in the cooking
room in the basement of Hughes and put
on the regulation cap and apron. Then
Miss Hull, in a ten-minute talk, proceed
cesses of chemistry which are involved
in the art of cooking. After this a few
practical illustrations were given of the
cooking which they were to perform. A
row of gas burners was lighted and each
boy was furnished with an egg and egg
poacher. The resulting poached eggs
would have done credit to the cafe Of
any of the swell restaurants or hotels.
Potatoes were then started roasting and
bread was toasted. The value of bread
crumbs and the proper preparations and
preservation was then elucidated to the
young students, and a whole jarful was
prepared by them and set aside for the
next recitation. The menu thus prepared
was served on a table by the boys, and
they proceeded to regale themselves on
the fruits of their work.

The Rock Island to Spend Much
Money For Bridges.
100000 Will be Paid Out
in Kansas and Colorado.
ESTIMATES ARE MADE.
Rate War From Colorado to
Galveston Grows Fierce.
Gulf Route Makes Some Sweep.
ing Reductions.

The Rock Island railway will spend
100000 in improvements in Kansas
and Colorado during the year 1898. Ten
thousand dollars additional will be ex-
pended in Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory.
Mr.. w. E. Dauchy, superintendent of
maintenance and construction west of
the Missouri river, has completed the
estimates for the work The improve
ments in Kansas and Colorado will con-
SlSt of the construction of iron bridges
to replace wooden structures, and in
Oklahoma and the Indian Territory
$4,000 will be expended in laying new
steel rails.
The majority of the iron bridges in
Kansas will be put in along the line
of the western division in the western
part of the state. In Colorado the
bridges will be built on the Denver &,
Pueblo line, and on the main line be-
tween the Kansas state line and Col
orado Springs.
AS yet no buildings of any import
ance have been planned for construc-
ton next year.
Although it has not fully been decid-
ed on, it is probable that several thous-
and dollars will be extended in this
city next year by moving the principal
yards from North Topeka to the tract
of land recently purchased on the South
side.
The Rock Island road has enjoyed
period of prosperity during the present
year, and the improvements next year
will be the most extensive made for
several years.

Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 16.-United States
Senator German has issued an open let
ter 10 Edwin F. Abel. publisher of the
Baltimore sun. in which he offers to re-
linquish the leadership of the Democracy
in Maryland, providing Mr. Abel will ac-
cept and support the Democratic ticket
in the coming state and legislative cam
paign. He also intimates that he will
foregO his ambition to succeed himself
IN the United States senate if it can be
shown that such a step is necessary to
Democratic success.
The letter, which is a very long one,
reviews the course of the Sun in its op-
position to Mr.. German, because of his
views upon civil service. tariff and bal
lot reform measures. To all the charges
made against him upon this score Mr..
German pleads guilty. but quotes the Sun
as having admitted that such questions
We're largely matters Of opinion, and as
serts that every man is free to think as
he pleases regarding them He con-
cIudes with his offer and hope that Mr..
Abel will bring back the Baltimore Sun
to its old mornings and devote it to the
exposition of Democratic principles and
the overthrow of Republican rule in the
state.
Senator German says in conclusion:
Are you ready. willing and free to meet
me on this ground in good faith, in all
loyalty, without provisO or reservations,
on the honor of a gentleman? Are you
at liberty to take charge personally, and
through your agents OF the Democratic
campaign for the mayoralty OF Baltimore?
If so, am ready to meet you more than
half way. Let me hear from you, and let
our fellow citizens judge between us by
the measure of our personal good faith
and party loyalty therein
Mr.. Abel declined to say what course
he would pursue in the matter, or to eX-
press any opinion concerning the letter,
which appears in the Sun today as a paid
advertisement.

NEwsBOYS RACE WAR.
Five Hundred Riot in the Indianapo-
lis Streets.

Indianapolis, Oct. 16.-The city was
startled and the police kept busy for an
hour last evening by a race riot among
newsboys. Hundreds of urchins broke
loose on the downtown streets, whoOping
like Indians about o'clock, and Occa-
sionally coming together and fighting in
squads. The trouble started between
white and negro boys last evening, in
f'Newsies' alley upon which the mailing
rooms of three large daiIies front in a
row.
At dusk last evening the Bungalows"
a fighting organization of Irish gamins,
formed near the Park Street theater, and
at about the same time the negro boys
to the number of about 200 assembled
north of the state house. There were
about 300 of the whites The police were
informed of the assemblages and sent pa
troll wagons to the scene to disperse
them. They succeeded only in breaking
them up into squads, and then began a
wild chase through the streets and al
leys, first one gang in pursuit and then
another. There were frequent collisions
of attachments of the opposing armies,
and fists, clubs and stones were freely
used. The police succeeded in capturing
II was o'clock before quiet was restored
upon the streets. Three of the white
boys had. broken heads, one of them,
named John Donahue, being severely hurt.
one negro boy suffered a broken arm, an
other a broken leg, and several of them
had flesh wounds.

IT TAKES CALIFORNIA
For Romantic Fetes and Festivals in
the Open Air.

Sonoma, Cal, Oct. 16.-The vintage fes-
tival of the Vale of Pansies, a beautiful
spot on Rhine farm, the estate of the
Gundlach, Dressed and Bundschu families
took place last night and is a thing of
the past. The entertainment. which was
OF classical nature, was excellently rem
dered. The feature of the evening was
the production of a Grecian drama
In the play goatherd is in love with
a vintager's daughter. The young lady
informs her ardent sutton that she can
not marry him because of the failure of
crops for three years past. An appeal
is then made to Bacchus, the god of wine
who promises to do all in his power to
help the young people.
Following the scene in which Bacchus
pledges his aid comes one where other
goatherds appear and discuss the actions
of the lover and guess why he has been
neglecting his herds. In the hills and on
large rocks to the rear are nymphs, and
one of the most beautiful features of the
entertainment is their singing when they
promise to assist the lover. Back of them
blue and red lights burn.
The lovers wait in anxiety for the vint-
age season to come, and many times meet
and discuss their love affairs. The drama
ends with the ripening of a bounteous
crop of grapes When the time for test
ing the grapes comes a beautifully dec
GRATED wagon, trimmed with grapes and
vines, is drawn by many vintagers and
the trees and surrounding hills are beau
tifully Illuminated by many colored,lights.
Fifteen vintagers took part in this act,
and their chorus songs were pleasing.
The Vale of Pansies is the most pictur-
esque spot in the Sonoma valley. 1t is
situated a short distance north of the
mansion of Carl Dressed. 1t is a small
canyon running north and south and on
both sides are densely wooded mountains
forming an excellent background for the
play. The night was perfect.

BURDEN OF DEFICIENT.
Mrs. Thorpe's List of IncapabIes IN
able to Take Care of Themselves.

Police Matron Thorpe, who knows the
poor people of the city, their condition
and wants better than anybody else, has
made a summary of these unfortunates
with regard to physical disabilities,
which is as follows:
AT present the most needy families
of our city number about "a. OF these
there are about six who are sick with
rheumatism or malaria and three or
four cases of consumption; Is of these
families are, one or more in each, sub
ject to mental weakness and disorder;
five of the "a are trying to get away to
other localities to live with relatives.
Among the "a families are II old peO-
pie; six of the families have, together,
81 children (some of whom are old
enough to work if they knew hOw). The
heads of IS Of these families are wild
ows; four of them are blind
These numbers compared to the 5000
or 1000 families able to look out for
themselves, count a very cheerful mi
nority."

RECORD FOR A MILE.
Remarkable Speed Made by a Hol-
man LOGON olive.

Cape May, N. J., Oct. 16.-The Hol-
man friction geared locomotive yester-
day made a remarkable run between
Camden and this city, in the course of
which it broke the record for the mile.
The locomotive drew a train of three
coaches over a, course between Winslow
Junction and Cape May, a distance of
f1fty-four and a half miles, in 5212 min
utes.
One mile between this city and Cape
May court house was covered in 80
seconds, thus lowering by two seconds
the record for a mile made in 1898 by
a train on the New York Central rail-
road. The Holman train, for a time.
was therefore running at a speed of 120
miles an hour.
The inventor of the locomotive was in
the city yesterday. He is confident
that with solid rOadbed and heavier
rails his locomotive will do still more
remarkable work.
The locomotive would have made
much faster time for the whole distance
yesterday had it not been necessary to
slow down eight times.

BURNED BY OxALIC ACID.
st. Louis Workmen Try to Scrub a
Floor With the Fluid.

St. Louis, Oct. 16.-Four men pranced
into the city dispensary this morning.
presenting a ludicrous sight as they
danced around on their toes, holding
their hands.
They were Peter Nicholson, Ike Ra-
moe. Charles King and c. w. WEIGH
They had been badly burned by contact
with oxalic acid.
The men said they had been employ
ed to bleach the hard wood floor in
the residence of J. T. Donovan, at 341S
Washington avenue. For this purpose
they had been provided with a quaint
ty of acid. It bleaches the floor or any
thing else instantly and burns like fire.
Instead of applying the fluid with
brushes, they simply dipped rags into
it and were going to scrub the floor.
The acid burned into their flesh, which
literally dropped off in chunks. They
were in great agony and their hands
were burned terribly.

MHATIS YOUR TRADE!
Each Trade or Occupation Has its
Special Disease.

It is well known among medical men
that certain diseases are more readily
developed in certain occupations than
in others. That each occupation has
it's attendant physical weakness EngI-
neers, railroad men and similar Occu-
pations suffer mostly from kidney trou-
bles and men who are often exposed
to the weather suffer from rheumatism,
while clerks and professional men, in
fact the army of people whose business
keeps them indoors, are OttentlmeS
great sufferers from piles and constipa-
ton. In this connection the following
letter is of interest to people whose oc-
CupatiOn will not allow SUFFICIENT OUT
door exercise.
Mr. A F. Calhoun, notary public and

but after only two applications the

The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from
cocaine, opium or any mineral poison,
a absolutely safe, pleasant and painless;
sold by druggists at 90 cents per pack

Any druggist will tell you that the
Pyramid is the best known and most
successful and popular pile cure ever
placed on the market and its reputa-
ton as safe and radical cure has only
resulted from the personal recommend

this distressing ailnsnt.
