Some Philadelphia clerEymen discussed
the Manners of Ministers the other day.
DIR. Johnson of Grocer seminary said lie

VICTIM OF POLITICS.
General Malone of Virginia Saw Wealth
Vanish With Fame.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
More fortunes are lost than made in
politics. Some old friends of the late
Senator Malone have united in obtain
ing for his son. Butler Malone, a con-
sulship in Mexico. 1t is not generally
known that young Malone found it
necessary to appeal to some of his
fathers former associates In public life
to get something to do. He first tried
railroad employment He was willing
to take place as brakeman, for he is
not troubled with false pride. Like his
father, the son is of delicate physique,
and it was evident that he was not
equal to the work When the late Gen
eral Malone entered political life in
Virginia he was probably the richest
man in Petersburg. If not million
aire, he was well on the way to for
tune representa- by seven figures. With
great energy he had taken hold of the
material restoration of the South, and
had identified himself with railroad
construction, becoming president of one
of the principal routes to tidewater.
After he left the democratic party of
his state on the debt issue and took
the leadership of an element which for
some years was dominant in Virginia,
his fortune began to shrink.
For a time General Malone was a
But at the close of his service in the
senate his state had become demo-
cratic, and he took up his residence in
Washington. His estate melted until
it was reduced to one large holding in
this city. General Malone tried to sell
this large block to the government for
the site of d new public printing house,
and several times almost succeeded
The senate repeatedly passed a bill to
buy the property but the house re-
jected it. Malone died without realiZ-
ing on this property. and leaving it so
heavily incumbered that it went under
the hammer. The purchase price was
about $150,000, a fraction of what the
government would have paid if the SEN
ate bill had passed. When he died
General Malone owed an account of
some thousands of dollars at the hotel
where he had lived for several years.
His son was left to start in life with
nothing more than pluck. Had the
elder Malone eschewed politics and de-
voted his splendid executive talents to
railroad building he would have been
one of the foremost men of the South.

DELICIOUS CELERY SALAD.
Some Practical Hints From "A Grower of
Celery,


One of the most delicious. appetizing
articles manufactured at the great
Dunkley celery farm at Kalamazoo is
Dunkley's Prepared Celery Salad, or
Celery Relish. 1t is sliced and prepared

vinegar, mustards, oil and curry pow

sent out to the trade in their all glass
preserving jar, and can be found at all
leading grocers.
The exceptional nutty flavor it adds
when served with oysters, roasts or cold
meats, baked beans, etc, is as delicious
as surprising.
They also have gotten up a little book
telling housewives how to use celery.
AS we usually eat this crisp, succulent
plant on the stick, SO to speak, perhaps
a change would serve to sharpen our
celery palate. The book referred to con-
tains several recipes for celery con-
sommes. various tempting dishes, and
several delicious salads, the latter suf-
fieiently tempting as to gladden. the
heart of chronic dyspeptic.
These little books are given away

quite wroth at the town people who
frequently go out there to spend
a day. He does not accuse any
one individual, but he firmly as
serts that those parties who are IN
the habit of carrying target guns

the loose hogs in that vicinity had
better desist or a general shooting
bee may be indulged in. He says
they have suffered long, that pa
