When one quart of white stock has been brought to the boil in saucepan, sprinkle in gradually one and half tablespoonfuls of tapioca, previously roughly crushed, and stir for perhaps ten minutes until the tapioca begins to clear. Now mix the yolks of four eggs into one gill of cream, and pour the stock upon these, stirring briskly dur ing the process. When duly amalga- mated, return all to the saucepan again and cook over gentle heat for a few minutes. Then serve immediately; should the soup seem too thick, add a little more cream to thin.-Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

CARTRIDGES IN SILK.
\ Number of Very Excellent Improve- ments Made In the
 Maxim Gun.

Hiram Maxim recently informed q Daily Mail representative that the British government had given his firm m order for their new guns, which have . greatly increased firing speed and 50 per cent. more penetrating power than those hitherto constructed.
 The United States had already or dered from Messrs Vickers' Sons 6 Maxim large number of these Pinch guns, md in reference to this Mir Maxim said: This last order is being sup piled entirely by our factories in Amer iea, on account of the neutrality laws, which would prevent the weapons being shipped if made at the firms works in Sheffield
 "We have made," said Mir Maxim, "a good many 6-inch and 12-inch guns for the British government, but these were made from government specifications, using government mechanism, but upon showing the government officials some thing better we have been given large orders for guns made with our improved mechanism, and this work is being executed at the present moment.
 "The statement that our 12-inch gun fires at the rate of three shots a min ute" he continued, lis substantially true. This, however, does not mean the that fl can be steadily fired at that rate. It might be done for the first minute, commencing with the gun loaded. One thing you can rely upon, and that is that our 12-ineh ard 6-inch guns are superior to any guns that have yet been invented, both in power and in rate of firing. Any nation using our new high-power 6-ineh and 12-inch guns can rest secure that they will never encounter anything that will shoot faster or with any greater penetrating power.
 ''Ihe chief features in the new gun are an improved breech-block and the substitution of an asbestos case for the metal cartridge formerly used. The usual breech-block requires several turns to hold it safely in position after the charge has been inserted. This loss of time is obviated by mechanical al- teration that gives the same solidity with but a single twist of the block. The cordite and projectiIes are held together in a silk lining, incased in asbestos, thus saving weight and magazine room.
 "The day the new 6-ineh gun was tried at Portsmouth the perforation irn- piled. according 10 Tresidder's formula, was 22.7 inches of iron, the greatest per foratioH laid down in the service table for e-inch gun being 15.9 Of iron. The rate of fire maintained by this gun, at a subsequent trial, at Shoeburyness, was a6 rounds in four minutes 1T seeOrds, which was equal to Q shot every eight seconds, CT, allowing for cooling, 100 shots in Is minutes.

ANCIENT CUBAN ATROCITIES.
Out by the Most Brutal ButcherieS.

On one occasion the queen of too populous district was invited to visit the camp of Gov. Gen. Ovando to wit ness tilting match of the Spanish cavalry, and appeared with 7s caeiques, or tributary chieftains, followed by vast multitude offower-crowned sight seers. At noon all were assembled, upon which," says the chronicle of Yalcarras, "Ovando gave signal; and instantly the horsemen rush into the midst of the naked and defenseless throng, trampling them under foot, cutting them down with their swords, and sparing neither age nor sex. The caciques, assembled in one of the prin- cipal houses, were bound to the posts which supported the roof and put to cruel tortures, until, in the extremity of their anguish, they were made to admit the truth of all and any charges, and horrible punishment was in flicted on the spot; fire was set to the house and they all perished miserably in the flames"
 Fugitives were hunted down with bloodhounds. In addition to slave dealers, slave trainers, and slave task masters, the planters employed com mittee of lnan-hunters who trained a breed of ferocious hounds for the es- pecial purpose of recapturing de- serters, who were generally dragged back to their owners and lcnotted to death in the presence of their fellow eaptives as an example in terrorem.

daughter OF the house was mixing

girl replied that there were no men in
the house. Then the fellow became
insolent and demanded money, and, be-
ing refused, seized the girl by the
throat and hissed, in true melodramatic
style, Have a care, woman, how you
thwartsmel" Without exhibiting any
alarm the girl picked up the pan of
dough and overturned the contents on
the rufhan's head. The man uttered
howl Of dismay and let go his hold, but
the girl held on until she had patted
and punched the dough all over his
head and face. like a mask. A splut.

from the Vicinity of the tramp's mouth,
and he finally clawed away enough
dough to see the door, which he made
for at double-quick Then he fell down
the back steps, bumped into the gate
and ran spluttering into the street.
Then, when all was over, the heroic
girl ran to her mother and tainted in
