tator yesterday He witnessed the nom
ination proceedings, attracting much
attention for himself. Col. Little wore
one of the cool and comfortable looking
Khaki suits, which he brought home
from service in the Philippines. There
were no brass buttons, just a plain
suit, but Little's square shoulders gave
him a military air which was very
noticeable to all who saw him. This is
the first political convention Mr.. Little
has seen since he returned from the
war. He was not aware that his former
class-mate, Webster Davis, intended to
flop during the afternoon and was
greatly astonished when Davis declared
for Bryan.

A COOKERY COLLECTION.
Items of Information Pertaining to Matters in the Culinary
 Department.

In most families the one and only way of serving prunes is stewed, but they may be made into number of palatable desserts. Prune pudding is made by lining an ordinary baking dish with brown bread and butter. Have the prunes soaked over night, and open them and take out the stones. Fill the dish with the prunes, sover over with another layer of brown bread and butter. Beat two eggs with. out separating, add to them one pint of milk; pour this over the mixture, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Serve warm or cold.
 Prunes may also be soaked, the stones removed, and the flesh mashed with spoon, or cut into small pieces, half box of gelatine added to each pint of the prunes, and stir in, as the gelatine begins to congeal, either q pint of whipped cream or the whites of four eggs, beaten to stiff froth
 To make prunes into croquettes soak the prunes, mash them fine; to each half pound add a pint of bread crumbs, Bind together in small blocks, dip in egg and bread crumbs fry in smoking hot fat. Serve with caramel or lemon sauce.
 An unusual dish that is seasonable is fried asparagus, The tender DOT tions of the stalks are cut into inch lengths, boiled for about five minutes in salted water, drained, dipped in beaten egg, then in bread crumbs and fried in hot lard Parsley, also fried, is served as garnish. A white or Hollandaise sauce should be sent around with the dish.
 Very rich cream often shows par ticles of butter or even goes all to butter while being whipped This is because it is not sufficiently chilled. It must have temperature of less than 50 to whip well. If kept for sew eral hours in the ordinary house re- frigerator it is a safe plan to set the bowl holding the cream in 8 pan of cracked ice, as otherwise the heat of the kitchen or of an outside pantry in summer will quickly raise the tenn perature of the cream, which will probably be none too cold when taken from the ice chest. If the cream is very thick an equal quantity of new milk might be added.

Native Soldiers I'm the Philippines,

Judging from the experiments already
made in the way of enlisting Filipino ma
tives soldiers, there should be no very
great difficulty in securing. with proper
differing. sufficient native army to garri-
son the interior towns and to act as
police force. 1t will not be possible entirely
to replace with Filipnos the volunteers
whose terms expire next June. 1t is too
much to expect that within so short a time
the natives can be made into thoroughly re-
liable soldiers in sufficient numbers to turn
over all the military work in the islands to
them. But by the organization of a small
force of Flipinos. perhaps chosen with ref
erence to their relations to the Tagaiogs. a
standard Of native soldiery can meanwhile
be established. from which a competent ma
tive army may grow. Englands experience

therefore there was some curiosity as to
how he would acquit himself. His friends
were little anxious, his opponents a little
hopeful. Both sides Were figuring on his
downrightness and impulsiveness. Would
he blunder in the heat of the moment ?
Might not some inquisitive auditor floor him
with a question? The anxiety and the hope
fulness were alike in vain. He toured the

made votes. He lodged no issues be-

William =. FRYE.

One of the most gratifying features of
the result in Maine is the fact that it In
sures the return to the United States Senate
Of one of the most accomplished and useful
members of that body. Mr. Frye. indeed,
for some years now has been national fig
ure Of the first Importance. AS chairman
of the committee commerce and as
member of the committee on foreign rela
lions he has shown a generous grasp of the
largest questions, and has helped shape leg
islatiOn of great consequence to the whole
country. His rulings when in the chair are
invariably fair and sound, and his appear
ance in debate is always the signal for at
tention on both sides Of the chamber. His
partisanShip is aggressive without being
bitter, and hts energy Is untring without
being fussy. Maine has for a great many
years been admirably served in both houses
of Congress, and Mr.. Frye Will take rank
In history with the most distinguished and
deserving of her sons.
Note also should be taken Of the fact
that In all the weighty business of the past
two years Mr.. Frye has been one Of the
Presidents most trusted advisers. The
President selected him one of the peace
commissioners to Paris well because of
his ability and experience In dealing with
diplomatic questions as because Of his
sturdy Americanism Here was man. as
he very well knew, who could safely be de-
pended upon to take the American side of
any question at any time, and who would
add both wise observation and wise refiec-
ton to any tribunal of which he might be
made a member. And how very well Mr..
Frye deserved and justified this confidence
was shown by his part of the work at Paris
where he sat in honor with colleagues of
equal ability with himself, and with them
met the pick of Spanish diplomats and ne
gotiated a treaty upon distinctly American
terms
And so 1t is that Maine votes overwhelm-
ingly for Mr.. Frye, and through him for
the policy of expansion which he has so
warmly and courageously espoused. She
VIII send him back 10 the Senate where she
expects that policy to be still further sup
ported. She evidently desires to see 1t
firmly established, and she wisely de-
cides that the foremost of her representa-
tives in public life is the proner man to
assist In the work. And she has never in
all her statehood arrived at decision which
reflected more credit on her patriotism and
intelligence. or carried more pleasure and
assurance 10 the country.
