CHIEFS WANT TO REMAIN OUT.

Won't Let Their Men Take Up POlit-
icaI Work If They Can Prevent II.
Under the new order of managing the
commissions the chiefs of departments
have kept pretty we'll out of politics ap-
parently, and assert their intention to do
so as long as the departments are held
aloof But if they watt back into the old
sort to political work to hold their jobs,
they assert their intention of doing it.
Il am certainly pleased with the way
the fire department is moving now" said
Chief Mcguire yesterday. I'VE have
rgidly enforced the rules of the commits
sion, so that now it is seldom any allu-
sion. any reference whatever is made to
politics. The men can give better atten-
ton to their duties, and it is a relief for
them to get out. But if political work is
commenced, that is, if l see men are work
ing to displace me- and it Is having any
influence. l shall be compelled to fail into

dication of this state of affairs now. 1 am
happy to say, but there is a possibility of
il developing and in that event there would
naturally be an incentive to draw the men
from the isolation they now occupy. Ny
men are OUT and l am out, and hope we
will be permitted to attend to our duties
and remain out"
The political element in the police de-
partment is keeping very qulet,e never
coming out bold enough in its advocacy of
candidates to make themselves offensive
to any. A decided Improvement in the
efficiency of the force is noticed as a re-
suit and the wish is universally eX

Mr. Cecil Gabbett, vice president and
general manager of the Georgia and Ala

there was any further information in ref

West to be exported through this port.
There is nothing beyond the brief state
ment made to the gentlemen on the West
India trade committee" said he. eve be-
heVe that Savannah can be developed as
a port for the export of grains and other
Western products. We believe that full
justice will be done Savannah as soon as
we are IN position TO handle this business,
ana that eventually a large export trade
OF this character will spring up for the
growth and material advancement Of Sa-
Vannah's business interests"
Is that part of the Idea that has act

island?' he was asked.
yes We hope for, and look for the day

son Island viii be utilized for a direct
foreign export of heavy shipments from
the Western country We have confidence
mat that day will come, and quite speed
Mr. Gabbett stated that the money for
the island project was all in hand aud
that the people of Savannah need give
themselves no uneasiness on the score
OF the project not being pushed through
to completion.
From the time the work begins. as
soon as the survey is finished, until its
close there will be a steady progress that

said he. 1T is a work of great magni-

THE INSIDE
OF A SALAD.
American Compound Lacks the
"Just Something" of the French.
A Chestnut Flavor Can Be Given To Tur.
key Salad AS Well As To Turkey
Stuffing Both Health
full and Fashionable.

"The reason why an American salad
is not as good as a French salad" said
an American cook who by the way
declines to be called chef, 'is because
you Americans look too much at the
outside of a salad and too little at the
inside. Now, 1 could make a salad out
of grass, if it were edible grass, and
you would smack you lips over it.
though the grass might be perfectly
tasteless. 1 have frequently made OF
dressed a salad with hay and had it
pronounced excellent, and 1 see no rea-
son why I could not make a thistle
salad. 1 may explain that the hay was
boiled and used only as a joke, on a
wager.
There is no light grassy material that
cannot be made into a salad if you un-
derstand the dressing. That is every
thing. After a certain amount of dress
ing the first taste Of the vegetable dis
appears and it becomes a salad; in some
cases, as in the very nice celery salads,
confection.
81 shall never forget a certain dish /
once tasted at the table of a famous
Russian chef whose triumphs were
known throughout st. Petersburg. The
dish, when brought to me, might have
been anything from a lobster salad to
an unpulIed roll of "fresh-every-hour''
molasses candy. 1t was oval on top
! perfectly yellow, and surrounded by the
smallest sprays of parsley. 1t was tc
be eaten with fork.
! II stuck my fork lightly into it
| found it firm at the base, and so sawed
gently upon it with the side Of my
| fork. 1t cut readily, as though it were
cheese The taste was simply delicious
There was a flavor as of lemon, rich
| sweet odor, and the consistency OF
mayonnaise. l afterward found it tc
! be beef a la Alexander 1t was cold
! sliced beef, dressed with a special sauce
whose secret l never learned. And the
chef had named it after himself. II
! could have been served as a confection
"a parsley salad, that cheapest of all
salads in the winter season, is not a
bad thing at all if the parsley is made
| crisp. 1t must be cooled on ice until
| it almost snaps. Then it must be broker
in the tiniest pieces and mixed wit
chopped celery. This, with very ricl
mayonnaise, is more than acceptable fo
| a relish. In certain European countrie
they serve it in egg shape. Eggs are
boiled hard and the yoll1 scooped out

stuffed inside and the egg made to stand
erect by cutting off the end "a la Co
lumbus.' This is served upon the plate
and is eaten with fork usually with
the course in which potatoes are served,
as fried chicken, creamed potatoes and
parsley salad, if you are serving a
southern luncheon.
'The trouble also with an American
salad is the fear Americans have Of
mixing things up. If an American cook
uses one vegetable in salad she thinks
