The secret of having oroquettes firm,
lies in their being mixed for long
time. The meat should be chopped very
fine after being freed from all fat and
gristle, and about half pint of milk
allowed to each pint Of meat. The milk
should be put over the fire while TIA
blespoonful Of butter and 2 tablespoon
fuls Of flour are rubbed together. The
hot milk is then added, and the whole
cooked to thick. smooth paste. Mean
time, to pint of chopped meat is added
tablespoonful of chopped parsley, salt
and pepper to taste, the grated rind of
a lemon, and teaspoonful Of onion
juice, if that is liked, or some cooks
simply rub halved onion over the
mixing bowl The seasoned MEATS then
stirred into the paste and the whole
turned out to cool. The meat should be
allowed to stand for at least hours be-
fore it is nodded into croquettes. DIP

quired, that they are very unsuccessful

pursued by President Mckinley and was
In favor of passing just such measure

passed originally and, debate being cut
off, voted against them as the only way
he could see to stand squarely by the
President. His course was open and
honorable throughout, and no one who
knows Capt. Boutelle will for moment
believe otherwise.
A special dispatch to the Bangor Wing
and Courier from Washington, contains
the following explanatory paragraphs
Mr.. Reed, Mr.. Boutelle and others be.

clared, upon ascertaining that the amend.
ment was strongly carried he withdrew
his vote, az he was utterly opposed to
the staggering character of either of
the resolutions.
When the Senate refused to agree tC

voted that the House insist on having il

If war does come the delay of the last

are begun operations will be pushed

Mr.. Boutelle has received literally
hundreds of messages of sympathy and
approval from his constituents and
others during the past three days and
hopes that if he and his clerks are unable
to acknowledge them the writers will

Fighting still continues in Cuba. An
insurgent force made an attack upon the
Spanish fort at Espujansa, Pinar Del
Rio, few days ago, and, even according
to Spanish authority, had the better of
the fighting. The Cubans are determin-
ed to force the battle and don't purpose
to let Spain's proposed armstice cause
them to give back particle. They
