Some Fish Receipts.

Fish, when fresh, is excellent food,
but the proof of freshness must be be-
yond suspicion. The flesh of good
fish is firm aud hard, and will rise like
rubber when pressed with the finger.
The eyes, too, should not be sunken
and the odor must be fresh, even if
fishy.
Fish with red blood, like salmon,
herring and mackerel. are highly nu-
tritious, but not easily digested. This
class of fish should never be cooked in
fat, as they are sufficiently fat in them
selves. White fish, such as halibut,
cod, h.,ddock, ETC., contain but little
fat in their flesh, and are therefore
delicate and digestible.
To prepare for Cooking.-In prepar-
ing fish for cooking, wash, thoroughly
wipe, cut off fins with a pair of scis-
sors, and then set the fish in a cool
place until required for cooking.
Never lay fish directly on the ice, for
if the ice is an artificial product the
fish will be spoiled in a very few mo-
ments; but even if it is not, the juices
of the fish will be extracted as the ice
melts.
Small fish are excellent broiled over
the Goals or pan broiled, while the lar
ger fish may be baked, boiled, or, in
case OF halibut and paddock, sliced,
egged, crumbed and fried. Cusk, cod
and paddock are also especially nice
when faxed and creamed.
Clam Chowder.-Open and chop one
dozen clans; chop and boil a quarter
of q pound of salt pork for fifteen min.
utes in two quarts of water. Add two
potatoes and two onions, chopped fine
and boil until done. Lastly add half q
dozen crackers broken in small pieces
the CLAIMS and juice; boil all together
for ten minutes more, season and
serve.
Brook Trout.-Wasb, drain and
split. Have some thin slices of fat
salt pork in pan. and when hot and
enough OF the fat is tried out, lay on
the fish, rolled in flour and seasoned
with salt. Fry delicate brown. If g
cream gravy is desired, after removing
the fish, pour cupful of cream into
the pan, salt and pepper; boil a mo-
ment or two and pour over the fish.

The Cocaine Habit.

A well-known chemist states that a
surprising number of well-to-do young
ladies have taken to buying the vari-
GUS forms of doctored up coca extracts
(cocaine) in large quantities, also phe-
nacetine and various bromides, be-
cause "they make one feel so nice and
happy" 1t is needless to say that
such practices are exceedingly risky.
Perhaps, however, they are preferable
to another extremely foolish trick

Washin9tun Standard
Government By Criminals.
New York journal.

New ! OH JOurUdl.
Mr.. Charles Jerome Bonaparte hit
tho very center Of our political
Law School, when he said:
To my mind the greatest, indeed
the one great, obstacle to reform in
our criminal laws is that so many per.
sons who ought to be and often have
been in prison are not only ont OF
prison, but actively, ii not conspicu'
ously, engaged in the government Of
the country"
An evening contemporary does no,
like plain speaking of that sort, and
Indignantly exclaims
eff Mr.. Bonaparte used this extra.
ordinary language he should have
been promptly required to make speci-
tications in support OF his charges
How many men can he name who
ought to be in prison instead of being
actively, if not conspicuously, en-
gagged in the government of the coun-
try?:' Who are they? OF what crimes
are they guilty? What positions dc
they hold, what salaries do they draw
and by what influence are they kept
in Office instead of being made to suf-
fer for wrong-doing?"
No doubt Mr.. Bonaparte could cas-
lily have named hundred men who
would answer his description. For in
stance:
Marcus A. Hanna. Crime, bribery
80 declared by majority of the
Senate in the Legislature that elected
him. Position. United States Senator.
Salary, 5000 a year. Influence, the
power of public plumber.
Matthew Stanley Quay. Crime, u.s.
ing public money for private purposes.
Position, United States Senator by ap-
pointment. Salary, $1,000 year.
Influence, same as Hanna's.
Russell A. Alger. Crime, sacrific-
ing American soldiers in the face of
the enemy for political and personal
advantage. Position, Secretary of
War. Salary, $4,000 year. Influ-
cnce, underground pull with McKin-
ley.
Thomas C. Platt. Crimes, bleeding
corporations and systematic corrup-
ton of legislators. Position, United
States Senator. Salary, 5000 a year.
Influence, same as Hanna's and
Quay's.
Charles A. Yerkes. Crime, whole
sale bribery. Position, power behind
the throne in Illinois Republican poll
tics. (Mr. Bonaparte manifestly did
not intend to limit his remarks to per-
sons holding public Office. When he
spoke of men actively, if not con-
spicuously, engaged in the government
of the country" he included those
"leading citizens" who rule our rulers,
and buy legislation as they buy stocks.
Mr.. Yerkes has had sufficient power in
the government of Illinois to secure
the passage of laws in his interest
against the furious protest of the
whole people.)
These are just few OF the names
Mr.. Bonaparte might have mentioned.
Others will occur by dozens to every
body with the slightest acquaintance
with current politics.
