SPANISH FLEET IS COMING.
-Four Cruisers and Three Torpedo Boats
Are Headed for Cuba.

~hfC AAo@tca hoA >to0s
A dispatch from st. Vincent, Cape
de Verde Islands, says the Spanish
cruisers Marie Teresa, Almirante
Oquendo, Viscaya and Cristobal Co
Ion, accompanied by the Spanish tor
pedo destroyers Plunton, Terror and
Furor, sailed in westerly direction
Friday morning, presumably going to
Cuba
The dispatch adds that the Spanish
torpedo boats Azor, Rayo and Ariete,
and the Spanish transports San Fran
cisco and Ciudad de Cadiz, sailed at
the same time in northerly direction,
probably going to the Canary Islands.
Commenting on the dispatch from
st. Vincent, the London Evening
News says:
''The import of the cablegram is
that the whole effective fighting force
of the squadron has been dispatched
west, while the non-e electives and the
non combatants are proceeding to an
other anchorage.
"Well informed naval authorities
are aware that the torpedo boats could
not travel the Atlantic at the present
time, as they have not sufficient coal
capacity 10 go to Cuba, and the risk
of coaling in mid-ocean is too great. u
This long delayed move is most sig
niicant. Its significance is in the
fact, which can hardly be emphasized,
that it is practically SPANS first real
move since the outbreak of hostilities.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
Something About the Way In Which
They Are Made.

They Are Made.
The ancient Egyptians made arti-
ficial hower3 of horn shayings, stained
in various c6iors, and leaves Of painted
linen have been found in tombs at
Thebes. From remote period the
Chinese have u:sfed 'rne pith- OF s.-eeTss"'n-
kind of bamboo for making flowers.
Cfassus, one of the Roman triumyirs,
was the first in Rome to have them
made Of gold and silver.
During the middle ages flowers made
of metal, satin, silk, wax and paper
were used in the Roman Catholic
Church with symbollcal Specifications;
on festal occasions they were merely
worn for ornament.
In 1928 Sekuin, botanist and chem
ist, began the manufacture of flowers
in Paris, employing parchment for the
flowers and bristles for the stems. HIS
work was so perfect and artistic that
the jealousy Of some Of the leading
painters was aroused. From that time
the manufacture of artificial flowers
steadily grew and developed In France,
and to-day the French excel In this
work.
The art was introduced into England
during the French revolution by refu-
gees who made use of it as means OF
subsistence. 1t has been successfully
naturalized in the United States.
Knives of various sizes and shapes,
stamps, goffering irons Of different
kinds, molds called veiners, and agate
or glass burnishers, are the chief tools
made use of in the manufacture.
The leaves and the petals are usually
made of silk or cambria; the material
to be shaped Is folded several times,
laid upon leaden table and stamp Is
driven through it. Goffering irons are
ers, as the name implies, are used to
vein the leaves, and the burnlshers are
employed to give the petals polished
appearance. The stamens and pistils
are formed of wire, covered with silk;
the stalk is made of wire coated with
stamens and pistils, around which are
attached the petals and, lastly, the
calyx. Buds are made Of cotton or
glass balls covered with silk or COM
brio.
The florists fingers, guided by skill
and taste, have much to do with the
beauty of the flowers produced. Great
ingenuity is often displayed even in
cheap sprlg consisting of several ma
terials well put together and arranged.
French wholesale houses engaged In
the manufacture Of artificial flowers
have each some special branch; thus,
one makes only roses, another wild
flowers, a third leaves, etc. The best
and most expensive flowers are hand
painted.

A Delicious Pudding.

A delicious pudding, made from ba-
nanas or pineapple, or almost any kind
of fruit, is recommended by an Eng
lish housekeeper. The banana is cut
in long fingers and put to soak for half
an hour in lemon juice and powdered
sugar This marinade may be favored
if preferred. While the fruit is soak
ing make rich custard with pint of
fresh milk, four eggs and an ounce OF
powdered sugar. Have ready in a
mold caramel made by putting an
ounce of loaf sugar in q pan, after dip
ping each lump into cold water. Stir
this over clear fire until it melts into
a dark brown color almost like molas
SEES. This is poured into the bottom
of mold. the mold being put in cold
water for moment to set the caramel.
The fruit and custard are then mixed
together, both being cold, and all is,
poured into the mold. The latteY ID
then covered either with it's own tin
or with ~ piece of battered paper, and
steamed for an hour. Itmay turned
out cna served hot, or left to cool and
served with whipped cream. The
same pudding is especially good with
a cup of chestnuts as foundation in
stead of the fruit. If these nuts are
used they are, after being shelled, laid
in little weak lemon juice and water
to remove the second skin easily, and
afterward gently stewed in their bath
of lemon juice, instead of being put
into the pudding raw, as is the case
with the fruit.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.


Peel, core and quarter some tart APP

or four slices. Butter pudding dish.
put in rather thick layer of apples,
then thin layer, not much more than
q sprinkling, of the crumbs of any rich

layers, as desired, putting a very lit
tie melted butter over each layer of
apples. The top layer should be of
crumbs, and thicker than the others.
When the apples are cooked and the
pudding Drowned, spread with mer-
ingue, or turn over it a sauce made
from two eggs, two ounces OF sugar
and cup of rich milk. Put in the

ANGLO-AM AGREEMENT.

The English Ministers Are Very Anxiou

The New Evening Posts London
correspondent cables as follows; "It
would be quite mistake to assume
that Lord Salisbury, Mr.. Balfour and
the ministry generally are unsympa-
thetic toward the movement of Anglo
American accord of which evidences
are not less abundant here than in the
states. L have the best reason to
know that ministers here await with
the keenest interest the development
on the line of Anglo-American coop
Grafton they suggested some time
back to President Mckinley. The
British proposal was for joint Anglo
American action in defense of the pol
icy of an open trade door in China
alone, as against expected Russian
German exclusiveness. I am assured
that the British government realizes
the far wider scope for Anglo-Ameri:

Bismarck's Opinion,

The Berlin correspondent of the
London Standard says: prince Bis
mark thinks that Germany must alb
stain from interference in the conflict
of the United States with Spain as
long as possible, but that she must
interfere instantly and most energet-
ically the moment her interests de-
mand it. Therefore, he thinks Ger
many ought not to bind her hands by
neutrality declarations.
