TURKISH COFFEE.
How to Make 1t and How to Brew
Moorish Tea.

Instead of Turkish coffee one might !,
almost say Mohammedan coffee, for
the method Of making it is essentially
the same in most Mohammedan coun-
tries, except that it is the coffee of
Greece, also, having become so probably
when Greece was under Mohammedan
rule.
The mill in which the coffee is pull
verized is seen sometimes in New York.
To the uninitiated it looks like Sec
ton of brass pipe. 1t is rude appli-
ance, calling for patience and strong
hands. For practical purposes it is
| better to buy pulverized coffee in small
quantities, though it is impossible to
get in this way just the flavor of that
freshly powdered. The coffee must be
fine as flour. Ordinary ground coffee
will not answer.
Coffee is served in the east in a small
cup called ''fngan." Under this there is
generally "zarf" of brass filigree
work of the shape and size of an egg
cup. The coffee cup has no handle
and rests in the zarf" like an egg.
To make coffee the Turk puts cold
water enough to fill three or four cups
into a brass dipper with a Aaring
mouth and long handle. He adds
what is to European an excessive
amount of sugar and brings to boil
over brazier of charcoal When the
water is thoroughly boiling, he adds
one cup OF coffee for every four or five
cups Of water. The water instantly
rises in thick brown foam. Just
splash OF cold water is thrown in to
prevent its going overheard, and the
coffee is poured into the cups and
drunk Immediately. No Turk minds
scalding or wishes the grounds to settle.
The infusion of the coffee is unneces-
sary, owing to its powdered condition,
and adds what is regarded as an un-
desirable flavor. Coffee is prepared
in extremely small quantities for in
dividual serving.
1t is becoming the fashion with
some women to serve this coffee instead
of afternoon tea. AS prepared in New
York the hostess boils the water over
tiny alcohol lamp, adding sugar ac-
cording to the taste of her guests or
her own discretion. She uses one cup
of coffee to about eight quarts of
water. There is no chance of failure
if the water is boiling vigorously when
| the coffee is added and if the dash of
cold water comes hard on its heels.
Turkish coffee is disagreeable to
some people; Others think it the only
coffee worth drinking. Tiny japanese
cups and Turkish doilies make a pretty
service, especially if one has a ham,
mered brass tray.
Tea as drunk in the harems of Mo-
rocco is esteemed the best made. To
prepare it, pour pint and half of
vigorously boiling water over table
spooful of tea. Let infuse about
three minutes and then strain through
a clean napkin into teapot. Add to
the hot tea some sprigs OF lemon ver-
bena. If these cannot be had, add
mint. Keep the tea hot enough to
infuse the verbena, but do not allow it
to boil. Squeeze in some drops of
fresh lime juice or in default of this
the juice of fresh lemon.
| Like Turkish coffee, the tea of the
Moors is made very sweet. 1t is served
with small sweet cakes.

THEY REJECT THE BIBLE.
Peruvian MasOns Renounce Use

tiOns With Them.

Right Worshipful William A. Suth-
erland, Grand Master Mason of New
York State, has issued general edict
directed to masters of all Masonic
lodges in the State. lie dissolves all
relation with the Grand Lodge of Peru,
on the ground that the latter body, to
use the words of the official document, t,
committed Masonic suicide" and
vanished from existence. He says
al am this day furnished with
printed copy of an edict, issued by
Christian Dam, Grand Master, over
the certificate of Manuel J. Caceres,
as Grand Secretary, wherein the said
Christian Dam, as Grand Master of
Masons in Peru, recitcs to those under
his jurisdiction that according to Ca
tholicism, the Bible is sacred book
in which the revealed word is deposit
ed and as such cannot be freely exam
ined and criticised; that the Bible cam
not be considered rs q foundation of
scientific knowledge or history, nor as
a basis of morality and he docs de-
cree that on all Masonic affairs the BIZ
BILE shall be removed and replaced by
the constitution of the order OF Free
Masonry and that in all our rituals
the word "Bible" shall be stricken out
and the words "the constitution OF the
Grand Lodge of Peru" be put in its
place.
"The body which was the Grand
Lodge of Peru has attempted to accom-
plish that which is not within the
power of any man or body of men to
do. In laying violent and profane
hands upon a great light in Masonry
it has attempted to change the plan
and very groundwork of the institu-
ton. That the Bible is a book con-
tanning sacred truth is one OF the fun
damental truths of Free Masonry.
Howsoever men differ in creed or the
oiogy, all good men are agreed that
within the covers of the Bible are
found those principles of morality
which are the foundation upon which
to build q righteous life"

CONTRACT LABOR IN HAWAII
Likely to be Abolished in the Interest
or Annexation.

Honolulu, Jan. IS via San Francisco,
Jan. 25)-One of the most radical bills
ever brought before a Hawaiian legisa-
ture will be introduced at the coming ses-
sion, which opens on the 9Th of next
month If the bill carries it will do away
with the contract labor law which has
been in vogue in this country for a great
many years. From an inside source IT is
learned that all the American planters
viii favor the bill; but it is anticipated
that planters of other nationalities will
make a fight. The legislature is practi-
cally in the hands of Americans, and at
this writing there is no good reason why
the bill should not become a law The
Hawaiian contract labor law has been a
strong argument in the hands of the anti
annexationists. and the adjustment of
the law is expected to aid this country in
its fight for closer political union with the
United States. The bill abolishes the
penal enforcement OF contracts for per-
sonal services after July l, 1895.

TO CONSIDER GRAIN RATES
Freight Officials of East of Chicago
Lines Hold a Meeting

Chicago. Jan. 25.-The freight officials
of the roads running east from Chicago
met today for the purpose of considering
grain rates between Chicago and the At
lantic coast. The meeting adjourned with
out taking any action. It was freel yad-
mitted by all of the roads represented at
the meeting that the rates are in a bad
way and hat grain rates especially are
badly demoralized. No agreement could
be reached on the restoration of the rates
on merchandise, which have been cut of
late, and there was still a less chance for
an agreement on the question of grain
rates. There is but little grain moving
now, and this was admitted at the meet
ing TO be the chief thing that prevents
the rates from going to pieces. The meet
ing adjourned indefinitely.

LUETGERT ON THE STAND

Chicago, Jan. 25.-The committee from
the state senate investigating the charges
against the police board heard testimony
today tending to show that regular po-
lice system of blackmail on the Chinese
and white opium joints exists. Several
Chinese appeared before the committee,
who, with one or two exception, said they
were afraid to testify. Sing Ting, pro-
prietor of an opium joint said that II
Governor Tanner of Mayor Harrison
would guarantee him protection, he would
tell all he knew. He said that within
the past ten days the police had visited
all the opium joints and warned the keep
rs against giving testimony before the
senate committee.
Sing Ting created somewhat of SEN
satiOn by stating that he and Sam May
bod once been imprisoned for fifteed days
on the north side for talking too much"
and that Sam May had been compelled
to leave the city. Moy Tin said that most
opium joint proprietors paid so a week

LUETGERT ROSS-EXAMINED.
Chicago, Jan. 25.-The cross-examina-
ton of Adolph L. Luetgert was resumed
by States Attorney Deneen today. Cues
tons that constituted a serious attack on
his business integrity were put to Luet-
CERT in great variety by the states attor-
ney and at times the defendant became
somewhat perplexed and moved about
uneasiily in his chair. 1t was asked of
the prisoner in queries covering every
detail, whether he had not falsified the
books of his sausage concern in order to
sell it; whether he had not burned the
books; whether he had not shipped goods
from the factorn in order to defraud his
creditors, and if he had not told several
persons, including two of his employees,
that he had laid plans to defraud Fore
man Bros, the bankers, when they should
take an inventory of stock at the sausage
factory. To all questions, however, Luet-
CERT had but one answer: 81 don't recol-
lect any such thing"

In all other industries except that of the
agriculturist and stock grower there is
combination and compact organization.
Indeed it would seem that success in this
age of intense competition and clashing
of different interests comes only from as
ISOLATION of those having common inter
ests, followed by cooperation, organiZa-
ton. leadership and attention to detail.
The most pressing need for strong as
sociation at this time, however, is to
bring pressure TO bear on law-making
bodies and transportation companies.
There is q necessity for some new laws
and changes in existing laws. With prop
er leadership and thorough organization
stock-grOwing interests can be as well
protected from eXtortion and unfair and
unjust treatment as any other interest"

today, ]. W. C. Steerley, Captain Carter's

Captain Carter went to Canada and in
structed him to address him under the
