SYRUP FROM WATERMELON.
Capt. HIYer of the Harrington Hotel, Of
Carthage, Makes an important

Iapl' ""Ie' OF me harrington Hotel, or
Carthage, Makes an important
Discovery.
Captain lilly er, of the Harm gton
hotel has prepared a new syrup and
incidentally has provided way for
the saving Of hundreds of dollars to
the farmers of Missouri, says the
Carthage Democrat.
At this time of the year, when the
watermelon crop is ripening, hun
dreds of melons daily 60 TO waste
on account of the over supply. Capt
Hilyer has method both practical
and economical of using this surplus
fruit IN tue manufacture Of a table
syrup which will rank III looks aud
flavor with the best Vermont maple
syrup, though the flavor is peculiarly
it's own.
The syrup is made from the red
part of the melon. This is taken
out and mashed. The seeds being
removed, thu mash is placed over a
slow fire and boiled. The water
eyaporates aud the solid part of the
melon disintegrstes, the whole
forming clear. sweet syrup. which
without the addition of sugar or the
trouble OF being strained, is ready
for use.
For several days the guests of the
Harrington have been eating the
syrup and many have remark ed
upon it's fine flavor. Even at the
present price OF melons-1O cents
the syrup can be made at less cost
than maple syrup can be purchased
An ordinary Zoe melon will make a
pint of syrup, which is but so cents
a gallon.
Everyone knows how watermelon
rind preserves are liked by epicures.
By Captain Hilyer's method these
preserves can be made at the bare
cost of the melon and fuel, as the
red part of an ordinary melon will
furnish enough syrup to pres 4rve
the rind.

SIX YEARS IN COURT.
a Damage Suit Which Will Pass Into
History,


History.
Nevada Post.
Fl. r. Oglesby, who has been the
guest of his cousin DR.. J. F. Robin
son at the Asylum, left to day for
his home in Warrensburg
Mr. Ogelsby is grand nephew of
Kit Carson the celebrated scout. He
is also the plaintiff in one of the
most interesting damage suits
brought in Missouri during the last
decade.
The accident was on the Missouri
Pacific, near Independence.
Mr.. Oglesby was an employee of
the road. The train ran off the
track and one of the cars fell on him.
He was in position where he was
reached with great difficulty. Twice
the car was lacked up, but the sup
ports broke through the frozen
earth crust and it fell back. For
two hours and a half mutilated and
suffering he lay under the wreck
From Sunday until Tuesday he was
unable to retain water on his stom'
ach but finally succeeded in keeping
down iced champaign. One leg was
amputated and the other was saved
with great difficulty.
Suit was brought against the com
pany and a verdict of $4,000 was
gwen in the Bates county court 1892
Since that time the supreme court
has heard the case three times and
will hear it again in October. Robt
Rally is acting for the company and
has made a remarkable defense. The
principal and interest of the Judge
ment now aggregate $4,000.
