THE BISCUIT DIDN'T RISE.
How q Young Cook Thought to Remedy
q Mistake.

They had been visiting and while
away had been given such delicious
homemade biscuit that the memory of
them still fingered IN the mind. Why
shouldn't they have such things them
selves? The mistress of the house de-
cidcd that they should, if she had to
make them herself. What good wife
would not be willing TO take little
trouble TO please her husband? So in
this virtuous frame of mind she repair
ed TO the kitchen, and there she stirred
up her biscuit in the most approved
fashion, shaped thems daintily and put
them in the pan. But she was not ac-
customed to this work, and it was not
strange that she should forget some of
the ingredients. It was tie baking pow
der, a small but somewhat important
item in the construction of light bis
cult She did not once think IF it until
the biscuit had been in the oven few
moments. Then, as she stood gazing
admiringly at the outside of the range,
which contained this precious proof of
her culinary skill, she suddenly ex-
claimed:
"There forgot all about the baking
powder.
That would have been heartbreak-
ing thought TO most housewives, but
not to this one. She was a woman of
expedients.
Never mind" she said as she hur-
riedly thought over various ways Of
mending matters; "those biscuit have
only been i'll a short time, and wi,
just sprinkle the baking powder over
the top, and it can melt and soak in. "
And she did, but the baking powder did
not. The housewife herself tells this
story of her cooking now with great
glee. while her husband, being patient
man, never says a word about his part
of it in the eating.-New York Times.

NEEDS A CUSTODIAN. Judge Troutt Decides to Appoint a Special Administrator for the
 Emeric Estate.

The contest as to who has the legal right to act as the special administrator in the estate of Mrs. Eugenie E. Emeric was opened before Superior Judge Trout yesterday, and the victory of the day was evenly divided in the protracted wrangle of Attorney Metson in behalf of Miss Barbier and Attorney J. D. Sullivan. representing Public Administrator Freese
 MT Metson argued that under section 1413 of the Code of Civil Procedure the preference must be given to some person entitled by law to letters of adminstra- ton upon the estate.
 This immediately led to a discussion on the subject of the contest considered as a whole, which resulted in Judge Troutt reminding the attorney for Miss Barbier that his clientmus be proven to be 'enti- tied to letters; the mere naming in the will would not so entitle her if she should be shown to be disqualified or incapaci- tated."
 Judge Trout finally decided to give En- eric until Monday to amend his contest. A special administrator will be appointed Tuesday.

KANSAS CITY, May 2O.-The Kansas City Star cup, representing the wing shot championship of America, was won in the Missouri shooting tournament to-day by Charles Budd of Des Moines.

Mich; Charles BUdd of Des Moines and C. $. Gottlfeb and J. B. Porter of Kansas City. MT Graham was erroneously reported yester- day as having, missed one of the first twenty-five birds.
 When the five cracks stepped up for the shoot-of a heavy wind was blow ing. Porter missed his third bird. Gott- lieb his fifth. Graham his twelfth and Glover his fourteenth. Budd killed fifteen straight, winning the cup.

COST OF SCHOOLS
 THE COMING YEAR.
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION SUB-
 MITS ITS ESTIMATE.
A Lively Discussion Over the Att tempted Institution of a New System of Drawing Into
 the Department.

Although the meeting of the Board of Education last evening was protracted al- most until midnight little or nothing was accomplished.
 The only business of importance was the presentation of the financial estimate for operating the department during the coming year. This estimate, which will De acted upon at a meeting to be called Tor the purpose next Tuesday evening, is as follows:
 Teachers salaries. s1.o2S. ooo; janitors' sala- Board of Examiners, S400; books for indigent pIplls, SSO0O; stationery, S7000; drawing paper, SagoV; furniture, apparatus, Mission High School, f-o,Voo, sl0peS, maps and apparatus, S4010, mak- ing total of S29, GOO; full wood and coal s65 O00: Janitors' supplies. s5O00; postage SS60; rents. outside rooms, $7S00; lights gas and electric s7000; books for school library s7OOO; prtnting $25OoO; advertisements in the newspapers $500; sseeIIesrapn and telephone expenses, $500; water. lncldentals. $1500 painting, whitening, con struct1on or new roofs yards, and general rsPadns G ad per report of inspector of buildings. struction of Broom brick including building new S-room building for the Harrington School SS0GO0; total S1,2s6, 125.
 The estimate for conducting the School Department under the laws and regula- uonS of the new charter is between S99S- 900 and S999 GOO.
 This amount, which is considerably ex- ceeded by the above estimate of the Board or Education, Is not ample to operate the department, as the last census shows an Increase of 15O0 school children for the coming year, and, at the rate of BPS for ceed the original figure.
 After two hours of continued discussion decision was at last attained declaring that the present form of drawing instruc- tion be continued until the Supreme Court renders decision as to whether this sys- tenn has been legally adopted.

Resisted Officers of the Law.
Mordsburg Liberal.)

Oliver Lee has written a letter to the
Independent Democrat of Las Cruces,
telling all about his little trouble with
Sheriff Pat Garrett, which difficulty
resulted in the murder of Deputy Sher-
if Kearney. Lee claims that the sher-
ifs possee commenced shooting and
then told him to throw up his hands.
Lee had just awakened from a sleep when
this occurred, and it may be that he was
told to throw up his hands before the
shooting commenced. Whether it was
true or not that the shooting com
menced before the call to surrender was
made is not of much importance. 1t
was in this way that Sheriff Garrett ar
rested Billy the Kid, and he has always
been commended for the way he ar.
rested him, and circumstances seem tc
indicate that Oliver Lee is fully as hard
a citizen as Billy the Kid, although he
has not the reputation of killing as
many men. From Lees own story it is
seen that he resisted arrest by officers
of the law, and killed one of them
in doing so, and there is no very good
reason why he should have done So, ex.
cept that he did not want to be arrested.
VIM. McNew, who was arrested as
Lees accomplish in the killing of Colo.
mel Fountain and his son, attempted TIC
get liberty on a writ of habeas corpus.
The case was heard by Judge Leland at
Santa Fe, and he refused to admit him
to bail, but remanded him to the Gus
tody of the sheriff of Dona Ana county,
to await the action of the next grand
iury
