Disastrous Floods In PennsyIvania-
Two BOys Drowned.

Philadelphia, March 2.-The unusu-

coupled with the melting ice and snow,
has caused severe floods in the central
part of Pennsylvania and in the an
thracite coal regions. The north and
west branches of the Susquehanna
river are out of their banks at many
Many industries have been forced 10
suspend work, including a large num-
ber of coal mines. The damage
wrought will amount to many thou

1t is no longer necessary to weaken
the strength and flavor of an iced bev-
erage by putting the ice directly into
it. A new pitcher has an inside ar
rangement that has somewhat the APP
pearance of lamp chimney, with
silver top and screw cork, and the
cracked ice is put into that. The ice
lasts a long time, and can be renewed
as it is required.

A recent statement has been made
by the department of agriculture to
the effect that there is no reason to
suppose that the potato is not as
rule a useful and wholesome article of
diet" The same authority says:
Eaten alone, it would furnish very
one-sided badly balanced diet, which
would frequently prove unwholesome
to most people. When eaten with
meat, eggs, fish, etc. which are es-
sentially nitrogenous, an evenly-bal-
anced diet which is most conducive
to health and vigor is secured"

"A perfect cup of tea can never be

Measure out the tea, allowing a half
teaspoonful for each cup of boiling

come to a boil for the first time. Put
the tea in a cloth strainer and pour
on the bubbling, boiling water. Cover
closely with a tea cosey, and let the
tea brew on the back of the range

EXPOSITION AFFAIRS.

1t is estimated that at least 1000
American school teachers will attend
the Paris exposition.
The Salvation Army has taken a
hall in Paris close to the exposition
buildings, where services will be con-
Quoted for the benefit of visitors.
At the Pan-American exposition at
Buffalo, in 1901, the buildings will be
lighted up by electricity generated by
gas engines using natural gas.
An international street railway con-
gress will be held at the Paris expo
sition in September, 1900. The Inter
national Street Railway association
association has selected Paris as it's
meeting place in 1900.
Calculating on the basis of results
of previous exhibitions at Paris, it is
assumed that 52,5sS,2SO people may
reasonably be expected to pass
through the turnstiles, and the total
number may reach 60,000,O00.

BROKERS IN TROUBLE.
Prominent Members of the Chicago
Board of Trade are Arrested.

Chicago, March 2.-Three prominent
members of the Chicago board OF
trade were arrested yesterday by the
federal authorities on the charge OF
"bucketshopping." The men taken
into custody are James Nicol first vice
president of the board of trade; Hen
ry .. Parker, who was first vice presl-
dent of the board Immediately preced-
ing Nicol, and Calvin a. Whyland,

members of the board of trade, but
who announced their retirement from
business several months ago, were yes
terday indicted by the federal grand
jury, charged with fraudulent use of
the mails, with carrying on business
in the nature of bucket shopping and
defrauding correspondents in several
states. Their ease will be called in
the United States district court on
March 10.
The brokers on the board of trade
had hardly learned the news of the
indictment of the McLain Bros. when
three deputy marshals walked in and
placed the three other members under
arrest. The prisoners were taken be-
fore Judge Kohlsaat in the United
Staes district court and gave bonds in
the sum of $1,000 each. They were
then released to appear in court to
plead to the charges preferred against
them. The three men were indicted
for alleged collusion with McLain
Bros. in a swindling scheme and bench
warrants were at once issued for their
arrest by Judge Kohlsaat.
All three defendants are well known
on the board and their business meth
DDS have heretofore been unquestion-
ed. They have all been in the commits
| siyon business for years and have es-
tablished a large country trade.

A SUCCESSFUL RAID.
A Naval Lieutenant Rescues Hundreds
of Prisoners Held by Filipino Insur-

Washington, March 3.-The navy
department yesterday received from
Admiral Watson at Manila a more de-
tailed account than was furnished by
Gen, Otis of Lieut. Gibbons successful
raid into the southern parts of Luzon,
where the insurgents are said to be
making their last stand. The two Off
GERS of the hospital ship Relief refer
red to in Admiral Watson's cablegram
are Fred Hopp, third officer of the
ship, and Charles Blandford, assistant
engineer. Boatswain's Mate Jurasch-
ka was one of five men attached to the
gunboat Mariveles. who were captured
October 16 last off the southern coast
of Luzon while landing non-combat-
ants. Some of the party were badly
wounded, one fatally, but Juraschka
was captured unhurt. Admiral Wat
sons commendation of Lieut.. Gibbons
exploit was placed on the records OF
the department and may result in sub
stantial reward for that young officer.
He is a native of Michigan.
Admiral Watson's cablegram is
dated Manila, March /, and is as fol-
lows:
"Armed transport Alava was receiv-
ed from military governor on Sunday.
Commissioned Immediately, Gibbons
in command, with crew and marines
from the Brooklyn. Proceeded same
day to Gulf of Rajay. Returned to-
day with sos rescued Spanish prison

he went into the Touring mill and dis
tlllery owned by his grandfather and
was employed as bookkeeper. On the
side, he toyed with a small railroad
venture which proved profitable and
permitted him to amass a small cap
ital. With this he experimental with
the coking possibilities of the Con-
nellsville coal, in which region he was
located. In company with q few
farmers, he got control of Broad Farm
and built so coke ovens. Success was
immediate and the capacity was soon
doubled. Then more territory was
secured and the number of ovens was
once more doubled. The panic of '73
came on and swamped some of his
partners. Securing aid from influen-
tial friends, he bought up the discard
ed interests and also got control Of
large number of additional coking
properties at the low panic prices.
His faith in the future was sublime;
he stemmed the tide of business de-
preston and came out victorious.
Soon after the revival of business the
profits of single year amounted to
more than the purchase price of the
new properties. The immense indus
try to-day operates on 10000 acres of
coal in the Connellsville region, owns
10000 ovens, with daily capacity Of
$4,000 tons of coke, and employs H.
900 miners and operatives. Upon the
death of Thomas Carnegie, Andrew
| admitted Frick into the Carnegie COM
pany because of his admiration for
the business capacities of the com
paratively young man. Mr.. Frick was
made chairman of the company in
1889, but few years ago divided the
responsibilities OF the onerous office
by having a president elected, he re-
tanning the craftsmanship. Mr.. Frick
has spent large amounts of money In
| charitable work, but has done it SO
modestly that the world does not
know much about it.

THE TRUST PROBLEM,
Industrial Commission Makes n Re-
port as TO Methods for Regulating
Capitalistic Combines.

Washington, March 2.-The indus
trial commission yesterday submitted
TO congress a preliminary report on
trusts and industrial combinations, to-
gether with testimony, review of evil
dence, charts showing effects of prices,
etc. The commission makes the fol-
lowing recommendations, based on
such Information as it now has:
Promoters and organizers of corpor-
ations or industrial combinations
which look to the public to purchase
or deal in their securities should be
required to furnish full details in re-
gard to their business necessary for
safe and intelligent investment. Any
prospectus which fails to give this in
formation, or which gives false infor-
NATION, should be held legally respon-
sible. The nature of the business, to-
gether with the powers of the various
officers, should be expressed in the
certificates of incorporation, which
should be open to inspection.
The directors or trustees should be
required to report to the members of
such corporations it's financial condi-
tion in reasonable detail; to give mem
bers access to records of directors
meetings or otherwise, and to furnish
them before annual meetings with
lists of members, with their addresses
and their several holdings, and to pro-
vide in whatever other ways may be
named in the certificates of incorpora-
tion, means whereby the members
may prevent the misuse of their prop
ertv by directors or trustees.
1t is recommended that the larger
H. -
publish annually properly audited
report, showing in reasonable detail
the assets and liabilities, with profit or
loss; such report and audit to be un-
der oath and to be subject to govern
ment inspection.
With regard to the interstate com
merce commission, it is recommended
that it be given authority not only to
prescribe the methods of keeping ac-
counts of railroads and to demand re-
ports in such detail as it may require,
but also to inspect and audit such ac-
counts; that the decisions of the COM
mission stand until reversed by the
United States court of appeals; that
the committee be authorized to pre-
scribe classifications of freight articles
and TO make rules and regulations for
freight transportation throughout the
United States, and that penalties for
violations of the Interstate commerce
act should be appropriate fines against
the carrier, and not imprisonment Of
officials.
Commissioner Lorimer states that
he concurs in all the recommendations
but withholds his judgment on the
plan until the report being compiled
by the commission is submitted to
congress with recommendations
Commissioner Clark concurs in all
the recommendations except that he
believes rates fixed by the interstate
commerce commission should not go
into effect in case of appeal until af-
frmed by a court, and that trial on
appeal should be expedited.

INTELLIGENT COOKING.
The Presentation of Food in Pm aIntn-
Bile and DigestibIe Form the Acme
of Culinary Education.

Good living is not high living in the
ordinary sense. The very acme of good
living is the best presentation of good
material in simple FORM and in that
sense it is the best and highest of liv-
ing. The Introduction of cookery as
branch of our public school training
will start the coming generation of
hOusekeepers in the right direction;
but the crying need of the present, next
to a knowledge of materials, is for
housekeepers to better understand the
Importance of the high art of simple
cookery, so says writer in an eX-
change.
Many woman will take infinite
pains in making a cake who probably
could not tell of the vegetables in com
mon use which should be put on to cook
in hot water and which in cold, which
should be salted at'first and which
later and why; how each should be
dressed for serving, and the difference
in dressing them when young and old.
Among hOusekeepers there are more
good pie-makers than bread-mallers;
20 who make pretty desserts to one who
is expert in cooking meats. and so who
make fine cake to one who unders tands
good soup-malling. Do not, because you
have kept house, 10, 20 or 80 years, feel
your housewifely dignity would be COM
promised by beginning all over again
in certain things, for that is being
progressive. A narrow-minded woman
would not do it, be sure of that.
The really useful knowledge YOU al
ready possess viii count for its full
value; your eNpertness in the nones-
sentials is very desrable-as a supple
ment TO more important knowledge.
OF course you can cook Il potato. But
how? When you have really exhausted
''the fine art" of cooking potatoes YOU
have finished one fundamental branch
of splendid education. There are
others of equal importance, and each
alike necessary if one would be an in
telligent usekeeper.-Prairie Farmer.

perience as a fighting soldier. AS a
raw lieutenant he was attached to one
of the regiments that took part in
the Chinese war, and he was one of the
officers in Napier's expedition to Abys-

warlike affairs in which Cronje's pur-
suer ever engaged. He was promoted
