BUTTER FAKIR'S WORK.
How a Smooth Stranger is Operating
Among the Farmers.

Mr.. Joseph Hogan Of South Bountl-
ful called at the "News' office this
morning and related am interesting
story about the work OF a smooth
stranger who has been circulating
among the farmers Of Davis county the
last week. He Is described as being
well dressed, a splendid taIkor with a
pronounced gum chewing habit and a
desire TO do his work quickly and GET
away 60 California the next day This
is the experience Mr. Hogan had with
him as told in his own language.
"He called at my place last evening
and offered 90 sell me q wonderful
recipe for making butter He said his
regular price was $40. but that as be
was anxious 10 go TO California imme-
diately be would lot me have 10 for 81.
This Is what he claims for his recipe.
out 0f one gallon of cream and one
pound OF butter that he mlTed with H.
together with a drug store powder, the
ingredients OF which be- said was a
secret, he promised TO make six pounds
OF butter lie gave me "a long and en-
PERTAINING talk and said AN the cream-
cries had the recipe and were making
biz money out OF IL and that the farm
ers might just as well get their share OK
H. But az / did not see things his way
we were unable 20 strike a bargain and
De called on one u my no.ghbors, a
Mrs Eakle and held out the same In

much interested in his claim and per-
mitted him 10 experiment with a quart
OF cream, an that she had ON hand and
a little cooking butter. that was mixed
with 10. together with the powder I have
already referred 20. In a very few
minutes he had turned out what APP
peared to be four pounds OF very good
looking butter from this single quart
OF cream and for the moment 81 looked
az though Mrs Eakle had suddenly
found the way to get rich.

dollars In my possession and said that
she could borrow q from me. He was
anxious TO close the transaction with
her al once and promised 10 remain at

daughter should 60 out and get the
money He cautioned her, however, not

The Richest of Caterers.
New York Letter.

1t has been the custom here to refer to
the elder Delmonico, who died seven years
ago, as the richest of all those masters Of
the art of cookery who came from Europe
to this country. If that were true of Del
monico when he died, 1t is no longer true,
since there died a day or two ago in Brook
lyn another, who, like Delmonico, came to
this country poor, who began in the hum
blest way, quite as humble as the service
of the founder of the Astor family, whose
first earnings in New York were gained as
a peddler OF bakers dainties.
This man Maresi gradually gained friends
and influence, and he had Delmonico's
genius In discovering how to grow with
the growth of a community. His business
extended as Brooklyn grew until at last
he became not only the fashionable, but
almost the universal caterer for Brooklyn,
and was recognized as a man of great
wealth.
But it was not until after his death and
a swift examination and appraising of his
estate that IL was realized that he was
almost a millionaire. In one sense he was
more than a millionaire, since his income
from his business was greater thar the
income of 8, LOCO, 600 invested at 5 per cent.
But he left an estate which inventories at
very nearly $1,000, 900. besides the good will
of his business. That is much more than
the elder Delmonico was able to do, though
the successors of that famous ~restaura-
tuer were able to invest in a new building
a sum almost as great as the estate left
by Maresi.

Home Hospitals for Soldiers.
London Letter.

London Letter.
A great many people are arranging to
open what are known as convalescent
homes, and the movement means a vast
amount Of comfort of those of the returned
officers and men who are taken into them.
In many cases the number of wounded men
received will be considerable, and they are
to have the very best attention and ad-
vice that money can procure, while in
many other instances only two or three
men can be accommodated. They, of course,
will also be nursed with all the skill of
modern science and will probably pull
through much sooner than If they were
in the great military hospitals. In London
the chief of these private hospitals, which
have been sanctioned by the War Office,
Is that of two ladies we'll known in So
ciety, the Misses keyser. who have a fine
house in Grosvenor Crescent, and have had
it fitted up as a hospital for officers. They
have secured a staff of first-class nurses,
and work under their direction n they
have received a very large number of con-
tributions in the way of such pleasing
things as turtle soup, champagne, game
and other health restoratives dear to the
palate of a hungry man In the GONZALES
cent stage. The dr~awing-rooms Of the
house are to be at the disposal Of the
officers who wish to receive their lady
friends. and they are also to nave a bill
lard room. and, in fact, all the comforts,
not only of home, but of a first-class club.
Presumably some of them will linger q
little over their complete recovery.

Joke on a Lawyer.
Kansas City Journal.

Kansas City Journal.
A good story On Judge H. s. Priest, of st.
Louis. who probably has more business be-
any other lawyer in the State, was told by
John r. Green, clerk of the court, the other
day. Mr.. Green says that when he first
became clerk of the court Judge Priest
was noted for the quiet and we'll modulated
voice in which he made his be-
fore the court. In one particular case last
spring, in which he made a lengthy address
to the court, he became excited and carried
away with his subject, and his tones rams
loud and harsh through the open windows
of the courtroom and woke up the echoes
about the Statehouse park. Mr.. Green.
judges OF the court, members of the bar
and others who knew Judge Priest were
surprised. In the closing sentences Of his
argument he was interrupted by a boy who
handed him a telegram. Hastily tearing the
envelope open he read:
North Jefferson, Mo.
Judge S. III. Priest, Jefferson City, Mo-:
Congratulations on your argument.
Heard 1t all while waiting here for NJ, X.
& I. train. 1t was great.
HAGERMAN."
The judge caught on at once and the
remainder OF his remarks were made in a
much lower tone of voice. The telegram
had been faxed by several Of his lawyer
friends and they enjoyed the judges mo-
mentary iscomfture to the utmost. North
Jefferson, the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
station across the river, is three miles
from the courtroom in a straight line.
