Statement in the Commons as to His
Relation With the Niger Company.
London, July 6.-Joseph Chamberlain,
secretary of state for the colonies, made
a personal statement in the house of
commons to-day with reference to the
comment which has been aroused by the
fact that, though a shareholder in the
Niger company, he had voted in favor
of the transfer of that corporations
territory to the British government.
Mr.. Chamberlain said in effect that
his interest in the Niger company was
under 5000, and that when the ques-
ton of revocation of the company'S
charter arose he asked the Marquis of
Salisbury and his colleagues in the gov
eminent to relieve him of any partici-
patton in the negotiations In accord
ance with this request the negotiations
have been entirely in the hands of Sir
Michael HicksBeach, chancellor of the
eXcheCuer.
Mr.. Chamberlain added that he had
voted for the resolution of Sir Michael
Hicks Beach, which was only formal,
but that he would not participate in
any future discussion or vote If, Mr..
Chamberlain concluded, he voted as a
shareholder, he would vote against the
transaction.

From an ordinary bunch Of celery OF
five stalks pick off the large leaves,
wash them and place in quart of wa.

about half pint. When cold, bottle
this liquid and keep in cool place to
be used for fiavoring grayies and soups.
Next wash and boil the five roots the
same as potatoes, trying them with a
fork to tell when done. Cut them into
thin slices, add finely cut onion and
make into a salad the same as tine or.
binary potato salad, The large and
ooarser stalks of celery cut into inch
lengths, boil, cover with q cream sauce
and serve as a vegetable. The delicate
stalks use as ordinarily for relish,
and the young yellow leaves will be
found to make pretty trimming TO,
