SPICED BATH FOR MEATS.
MRrinade Preserves the Flavor of ANY
Kind OF Flesh.

hinu OF Flesh.
A foreign device for the preservation
of meats previous to being cooked, un-
known in most American households,
is the marinade or aromatic or spiced
bath. The original marinade was
solution of sea salt intended to preserve
or flavor any description of flesh suit
able for being picked. These solu-
tions were favored or spiced in many
ways. and In cases where the preserya-
tion OF meats was subordinated to its
fiavoring the pickle was decreased In
quantity, improved in quality. and ul-
timately incorporated with the braise
In which the meat was cooked. Prob
ably the most perfect marinade for
mutton chops is composed Of portion
OF current jelly in which olive oil is
stirred drop by drop. as in the making
OF mayonnaise of which the yolks OF
eggs are the basis. When the amalgam
becomes stiff 1t is diluted with tara
gon vinegar to liquid consistency. To
this are added some whole black pep
pers. Glove OF garlic. an onion and
savory herbs chopped very fine and a
pinch Of ailspice. The meat Is placed
In this marinade for from eight to
twelve hours. then withdrawn and
brolled. The marinade. or portion of
It, is then heated in a saucepan, thick
ened to proper consistency and pour
ed over the meat as n sauce.

BIG BLOCKADE DECLARED
sIGSBEE BEATS THE TERROR.
south Coast shut on From tbe
WorId-The Auxiliary Cruiser Hns
shown Herself Capable of Hand
ling IA Torpedo Bont DESTROYER

Washington, June IS. - By procloma.
ton issued today the president gave no.
tice of the intention of the government to
assume the formidable task of blockadinr
about 500 miles of the Cuban coast line in
addition to the section already blockaded.
This increases the extent of the blockade
fully fourfold.
The demands upon the navy will not be
nearly 50 heavy in proportion to the ter
ritory covered as in the case of the initial
blockade, for the reason that the new
blockaded coast lies entirely within the
great blight on the south coast of Cuba.
in which the water is generally very shall
low, and the ports are few into which a
vessel could enter. The most important
of these ports are Manzanillo, Trinidad
and Tunas.
The purpose of extending the blockade
was to command the channel on the west
side of the Isle of Pines and Cape Francis
and thus render much easier the task of
blockading. Vessels for the additional
blockade service will be supplied almost
entirely from the patrol fleet which, un-
der Commodore Howell, has been guard
ing the north Atlantic coast.
The blockade of San JUAN proclaimed
today, is in reality already in effect, hay
ing been initiated by Captain Sigsbee last
week The difficulty of maintaining a
blockade at this port in the face of the
Spanish forts and the three Spanish war
vessels in the harbor would be consider
able had not Sigsbee, by disabling the
only formidable one of these vessels made
the task easier.
In defeating the Terror, Sigsbee rem
dered a most important service to our
navy and indeed to all nayies. He not
only deprived Simpsons fleet of appre
hension of attack in the rear some dark
night by these vicious little boats, but
demonstrated that the auxiliary cruiser
is amply able to take care of herself
against torpedo gunboats, showing that
the offensive power of this craft has beer
very much overrated.

London, June 2S-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail telegraphing
Monday says; The minister of war, Cen

forcements to reach Santiago tomorrow.
The report is confirmed that the Spanish
troops at Guantanamo are marching to
attack the American rearguard there,
There is also movement OF other troops
throughout the whole of eastern Cuba in
order to carry out concerted plan of ac-
ton. The announcement that an Amer
lean squadron is coming to Spain attracts
very little attention. All the available
men-of-war have been ordered to hold
themselves in readiness. The harbors are
mostly protected by torpedoes, and the
various garrisons have been reviewed as
TO their efficiency.
