HUSBAND KNOCKED HER DOWN
Why Mrs. Cook Became Tired of Mar.
ried Life.

Welded life has grown irksome to
Mrs. Jessie Cook of Mill Creek, and
yesterday she began proceedings for
divorce against her husband, Heber c.
Cook
Her complaint says that she married
Heber c. Cook on Aug. %, 1895, and
that within year her husband had &C
quired the habit of knocking her down
on the slightest provocation whenever
he felt in the humor.
Since September, 1885, the complain
ant alleges, her husband has failed to
provide for her the ordinary necessaries
of life, and she has been compelled to
rely for her support upon the charity of
friends or her own labors
H. c. Edwards and ]. Z. Frick are
Mrs. Cooks attorneys.

Time to Give Up.

An Iowa judge recently related
an amusing incident that had oc-
Cured IN his court when an old
colored man was brought up for
some petty offence. The charge
was read, and as the statement
1.-The state of Iowa against John
Jones" was read in = loud voice,
the colored mans eyes bulged
nearly out of their sockets, and
he seemed overcome with terror
and astonishment. When hs was
asked if he had anything to say or
plead guilty or not guilty, he
gasped out:
"Well, yo' honah, ef de whole

tanburg Herald.
What do you mean by "mon
ey2" So long as there is enough
OF something representing a fixed
value to do business with we do
not believe tho amount of it in
existence makes any direct differ
ence. When trade is good the
demand for commodities natural
ly increasesand with the increased
demand comes an increase in
prices.
MIR Whitney to tho contrary,
we do not believe the increased
gold supply to be the cause of
the present and increasing pros
perity of the business world
Every man who hold United
States promise to pay knew as
soon as Coloael Bryan and his
fifty cents dollars scheme were
knocked out that he could get
gold for it. SO long as ther, is
gold enough in the world to make
these promises good, it will he in
the treasury to meet them on pre-
sentatlou. That confidence boom
ed enterprises and started the
wheels turning, and one thing
moved another. If there bad
been 100000 bale cotton
crop and the supply of gold had
been twice what it Is, cotton
would have sold at a cents. If
there had been 1000, 900 bale
crop and the supply of gold half
what it is, cotton would have void
at 10 cents.
If there was no money in OK
istence prices of commodities
would he fixed by their relative
supplies proportionate to tho de,
mand for them. Fix the value of
your money basis and keep it
steady, and the law of supply and
demand will regulate the prices of

| geons abound is being vigorously fished

as fifty dollars is sometimes obtained

| The best caviare in the United States
| is made from the roe of the lake stur-
| geon, the eggs being larger than those
OF the common river species. Increas-
ing scarcity of sturgeon eggs and the
high price of the picked product have
put a premium on substitutes sufli-
GENTLY like to serve as counterfeits, but
up to date nothing satisfactory has
been found. The eggs of horseshoe
crabs have been fried, but they are too
small and become hard and tasteless
when sailed, Garfish eggs have been
utilized experimentaly, but, while big
enough, they are without flavor and
have a disagreeable, odor.
The roes of the perch and club are
utilized for making a kind of caYare
which finds a market principally in
Constantinople and Greece. Greek mer-
chants visit fishing establishments near
Astrakhan, buy the fresh eggs, and
have the product prepared under their
own supervision. The roe bags are
placed in dry salt, under pressure, and
are thus kept for a month. Hebrews i'm
Italy and eastern Europe are not per
mtted by their religious laws to eat
sturgeon eggs, because that fish is des-
titute of scales and so they maunfac-
ture their caviare from carp roes.

In Norway and other countries of
northern Europe various preparations
in the nature of pastes or extracts are
made from fish. The well known fish
meal of Norway is composed of the
flesh Of fish reduced to powder, in which
all the nourishing materials are con-
centrated. 1t is claimed that this fish
meal contains four times as much nu-
triment as beef, and sixteen times as
much as milk or rye bread. On the
coast of Cochin China large quantities
of an extremely nutritious fish paste
are prepared from shrimp and small
fishes. The Chinese say that this prep
araton is brought to perfection only by
being buried in the earth for several |
years.
There are few lost arts in the prep
aration of fishery products, and one of ,
these has to do with the ancient Ro-
man sauce known as "garum socior-

scarcely buy two boxes of ten pounds
