ONTHE STREET



Sutherland Hutton went to San Francisco
with the Populist delegates on Saturday
evening for the avowed purpose of aiding
the work of bringing about fusion, but his
real intention, as confessed to me at the
Arcade depot, was to see If a recent arrival
of Gordon bleue from the south at a noted
restaurant up there could cook terrapin bet
ter than he could. Hutton's recipe Is very
simple, as he tells 1t, and he thinks with
reason that he can just about best any chef
in making terrapin stew as it should be.
"AH you need" he says, lis, first your ter
raptn, and after 1t is cooked you want to
pick it." What picking Is did not have
the courage to ask him, for was not sure
whether the proper sort of chelonianus had
feathers or not AFTER you have thor
eughly picked and cleaned the terrap.n,
which should take you at least fifteen min
utes, you put 1t on to stew. and must add
your spices, including cayenne pepper which
must be had from drug store, for you can
not get the real article from the ordinary
grocer, then add sherry. the best you can
find, and butter of the very highest quality,
to suit your taste, and that is all there is to
Francisco has some new-fangled additions
to that, and what they are I want to ind
out. When 1 come back, II ascertain that
he can improve on my method, I'll let you
konw and cook you some" / sincerely trust
that Hutton will find that he has learned
something about the art, for If there is
any better terrapin to be had than that he
has been in the habit of cooking want the
chance to taste 1t.
Photography is fast arriving at the con-
dition of being a fine art. Mr.. Kleckner re-
Gently presented nae with a Photographic
art study which is one of the most delight
full pictures imaginable. 1t Is called "Au-
tumn," and It has all the qualities of a
drawing, or rather an etching, by a master,
1t represents the nude form of beautiful
girl seated on the branch of tree, bereft
of its leaves, and from her delicate fingers
the wind is scattering the petals of lot
of blossoms. The picture. though the pro-
duction of a spiritless lens and produced In
a studio in the midst of city far from
woods or the resort Of nymphs-at least OF
the charming kind depicted-is redolent of
artistic impulse. The model was a San
shows that she had feet equal in beauty to
those which won Trilby immortality. In
fact, the symmetry of the entire figure Is
charming to the highest degree and goes
to prove the assertion often invade to me by
artists who paint from the altogether that
California girls are superior to the Italians
for perfection Of bodily beauty.
Is II the Bible or Shakespeare that says
something about pride going before fall?
There is so much truth in both authorities
that thew are easily mixed. What caused
this ino,1iry was an incident noted with
