1t is even possible that those people
who have children of their own and
who do not coincide with Mr. Arosin's
peculiar ideas Of the evil effect of the
free use Of books on the youthful mind
will take hand in the coming cam
paign, and that Mr.. Arosiu will be
brought to account promptly for his
vandalistic attempt to destroy the
Juvenile department of the public Ii
brary. In these days people do have
queer notions Of what is good for the
youngsters, and most parents prefer.
that their offspring shall read books.
The benson that was earned by Cad
mus and other unknown inventors of
books will have a left-handed effect on
the head Of Arosin. who undoubtedly,
would scorn to admit that he ever
heard Of Cadmus or the Phoehicians.

Solely for the sake Of adding to our
statistical knowledge it will presently
be worth the while of some individual
or institution to investigate the dis
tribution Of nationalities in st. Paul.
It appears that there have been, in
round numbers, some $4,000 foreign born
citizens naturalized within the past
year in this county. 1t is certain that
80 per cent of those naturaliZed had
previously voted, as they were entitled
to under the constitution. There are
no more than $4,000 voters In the coun-
ty, at the outside, and the figures on
naturalization give evidence that con-
siderably more than half Of the vote
is foreign born, as we must assume that
many persons had taken their final
citizenship papers prior to the adop-
ton of the constitutional amendment
which makes full citizenship a neees-
sary qualification in a voter A CEN
sus on these lines would be interest
ing now, and might prove of value to
poSterity.

COOKING GOOSE.
A Young Fowl When Properly Pre-.
pared In Not to BE
Despised.

| The advice of u well-known auth orit,
en- cooking when considering the sub
jtct of cooking goose is: Have some
thing else" 1t certainly hardly pay
TO prepare an old goose for the table
When poultry is to be selected in mar
ket such bird is not worth buying al
any price. The flesh is strong and il
requires parboiling before it is roasted
to take out the strong flavor.
Geese, however, are often raised on
the farm because they are easily taken
care of or for other reasons, and the
farmers wife must use that which she
has. A goose under year old is very
different bird from the old goose. Such
bird makes a rich roast. 1t needs no
parboiling. Clean it very carefully.
Lift up the skin of the breast and that
ever the crop and take out all the fat
that can be reached. The fat has no
culinary value, but is valuable when
tried out into goose grease for various
medicinal purposes. Dredge the goose
inside and outside with salt and pep
per. Prepare the stuffing as follows:
Mash fine six boiled potatoes; add to
them one tablespoonful of salt, one tea
spoonful of pepper, one tablespoonful
of powdered sage. two of onion minced
as fine as possible and two of butter.
Fill the goose with the stuff1ng Dredge
1t well with -four after stuffing 1t and
trussing it into shape, SO that the stuff
fing cannot come out. This is better
than sewing it up. A medium-sized
young goose will cook in an hour and
a half with brisk fire. Baste the bird
with the drippings in the pan and
dredge it with -four every Is minutes.
Turn it often, so that 1t will be evenly
Drowned. Do not use any butter or fat
CT any kind in cooking goose. There
will be fat enough tried out of the bird
to cook it.
A goose that weighs four pounds is
large enough for roasting. 1t is hardly
safe to buy larger bird, as it will be
tough. When the bird is done prepare
the gravy. Pour about a cupful of boil
ing water into the drippings in the
pan There should be about a cupful
of liquid dripping, making pint when
the cupful of water is added. Stir well.
and if the gravy is not thick enough
add little -four stirred to paste with
cold water. Season the gravy well with
salt and pepper. After it boils up stir
1t we'll Serve it in boat with the
goose. Serve apple sauce with it.-N.Y.

singular Birth and Death Rate.


The New Zealand birth rate continues
to attract the attention of statisticians
1t has steadily declined until it is now
slightly under 20 per 1000. In the last
16yearsit has fallenmore than 12 points
Population increases, but the number
of births remains virtually stationary
and so the rate per 1000 sinks. The
births numbered between $4,000 and
10000 in 1882, and they numbered be.
tween 1s.GOO and 10000 in 1896. If the
rate goes on falling it will in a few years
be on level with that of Ireland, if not
of France. Two things save the colony
from an arrest of the growth of pop
ulation. First the death rate-9.3 pei
1,0O0-is the lowest recorded of any
country in the world; second, there is 8
small but appreciable immigration
Those who hold that high standard OF
education and comfort involves a de
cline in both the birth and death rate,
have here confirmation of theii
theory. The average of children in
regular school attendance in New Zea
land is higher even than in Scotland

not advise anyone without capital to
come to the islands; even skilled labor
is drug on the market, as many Of the
Chinese and Portuguese are skilled Ia
borers, with whom you would have to
compete In wages. Professional and
mercantile careers are overdone here,
the stores carrying large modern
stocks, and the total white population
only numbering few thousand; the
bulk of the population includes Portu-

DestrOyers Fail in Sneed.

The failure of some of the new tor
pedo boat destroyers to attain any
thing like the speed recorded of them
while on their contractors trials is en-
gaging the serious attention Of the adj
miralty and of naval engineers. The
difficulty has existed ever since the
adoption of the SO-knot destroyers, but
it has been especially noticeable in the
cases of the Earnest and the Griffon.
which only few months ago, while un-
dergoing their contractors trials on
the Clyde, exceeded mean speed of 80
knots on continuous three hours run.
the engines in each case working at
5000 horse power. Since they have
been at Davenport completing for sea
they have been subjected to no work
whatever, yet on two hours trial,
with the engines working at an even
greater rate than when on the CLYDE.
they barely exceeded &c knots. Such
great reduction of speed in new YES
sells is regarded as Surprising, and even
alarming, and it is likely to form the
subject of close inquiry

RARE ORCHIDS IN BLOOM.
The "Flower of the Holy spirit' Has
Been Successfully Raised in
Cincinnati.

The florists in charge of the Eden
park greenhouses are in fever of ex.
citement over the appearance of flower
spikes on that, rare in this climate,
orchid called the flower of the holy
spirit-peristeria elata. Attempts to
cultivate in this country this plant,
which is native of Brazil, have nearly
al proved failures. The orchids at
the greenhouses were sent to Mrs. Gest,
of this city, year ago by a son who
is travelling in Brazil Realizing that
they would need constant care and a
high temperature, she sent them to the
city greenhouses in Eden park, where
they have been watched over with ten
der solicitude by the head florist, 7. G.
Shelby
The flower of this plant is one of the
most beautiful known to horticulture
lists. 1t is two inches in breadth and
of waxy whiteness, the stamen and
anthrax forming a perfect reproduction
of a dove with wings outstretched.
Years ago, when the Spaniards invaded
Brazil, they were struck by the pure
whiteness of the flower and the figure
OF the dove and gave it its present name
The bulb of this plant is the size of
q small melon, the leaves palmlike and
growing from two to four feet in
length. 1t is terrestrial orchid and
grows upon the ground, not climbing
to the tops of forest monarchs, as its
aerial brother. 1t is indigenous to the
forests of Brazil, where it blooms In
the dense and humid shade in a temper
sture exceeding 11o degrees, in which 1t
is hardly possible for man not na-
tive to live. Each flower spike is topped |
by an immense bud or envelope, which |
incloses from six to ten smaller buds, |
which will burst forth into flowers.
These flowers bloom from six to ten
weeks.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

An Ardmore dispatch says: Hon.
A. S. McKennon, acting chairman
of the Dawes commission, today
said, in regard to the report that
the co commission had rented head
quarters at Muscogee for period
OF five years, it was an entire mis-
take. "We needed more commod-
ious quarters, and we told the own
ers of the building if they would
fit it up for our use we would rent
it for an indefinite period, said he.
Asked about the probable appoint
ment of townsite commissioners,
he said: " / think this will be done
soon after congress covnenes and
an ap preparation is made for the
purpose. 1t will be done by the
first of he year, but there is moth
ing certain about it." Regarding
the work of allotment, Major Nc
Kennon said ut is an undertak-
ing almost beyond the conception
in its magnitude, and no approx
innate date can be set for it's COM
pletion. He says the Seminoles
are better prepared than any ther
tribe for final allotment.
