How to Cook Husbands.

Under the caption of astronomical
notes the New York Sun talks in u
way to make q woman's mouth water
for such husband; but how many
women are there in the world who
will 60 to all this trouble just for the
sake OF husband? The Sun says a
good many husbands are entirely
spoiled by Encouragement in cook
ing, and so are not tender and good.
Some women keep them too con.
stantly in hot water; others freeze
them; others roast them; and others
keep them constantly in a pickle. 1t
cannot be supposed that any husband
will be good and tender managed in
this way, but they are really delicious
when properly treated. In selecting
your husband you should not be guild
ed by the silvery appearance as in
buying mackerel, nor by the golden
tint, as if you wanted salmon. Be
sure and select him yourself, as tastes
differ. Do not go to the market for
him, as those brought to the door are
always best. 1t is far better to have
none, than not TO learn how to cook
them properly. 1t does not make so
much difference what you cook him in
as how you cook him. See that the
linen in which he is wrapped is white
and nicely mended, with the required
number of strings and buttons. Don't
keep him in the kettle by force as he
will stay there himself, if proper care
is taken. If he splitter or fizz, do not
be anxious; some husbands do this.
Add little sugar in the form of what
confectioners call Kisses" but no
vinegar or pepper on any account. A
little spice improves them, but it must
be used with judgment. DO not try
him with anything sharp, to see if he
is becoming tender. Stir him gently
the while, lest he stay too long in the
kettle and become fiat and tasteless.
II thus treated, you will find him very
digestible, agreeing nicely with you,
aud he will keep as long as you want.

First Insane Indian.

Mrs. Blue Sky, the Indian woman who was recently sent to the insane hospital at Fergus Falls, is the first Indian woman in Minnesota to be placed in an institution of that kind, says the Detroit Tribune. The wom- ans mind during the trip to Fergus Falls was occupied with associations most dear to the Indian. She talked in Chippewa of trapping and of the woods. Her mind dwelt on such mat ters during most of the journey. Mrs. Blue Sky is sister of John Bear grease.

A Remarkable Discovery.

A remarkable discovery has beer made by Dr. Peters, who has recently
 been excavating at Nippur, an ancient city of Babylonia. While the workmen were clearing away the debris from the walls of the temple Bel they dis covered in a hole which had been clos. ed up with sundried bricks a large goose egg on a mat of reeds. Why the egg was placed there is mystery, as it has no connection with any known Babylonian custom. Dr. Pet CTS thinks that it may be looked upon as a joke on the part of one or more of the ancient workmen, the object of which will probably never be known. The temple was built at very re- mote time, probably in the reign of Akus=gal tB. c. 22o01, or even earlier, so that the egg is over 4,000 years old.

Difference in Oranges.

To a great many people an orange is an orange, but there are oranges and oranges, and several grades are gath cred from the same orchard not only, but from the same tree. An orange plucked from the sunny side of tree does not look like a nearer relation to an orange plucked from less favored side of the same tree at the sam9 time than a third cousin. Hence there is a wide range in the quotation on oranges of the same stock from the same local ity-Natiopal Fruit Grower.

WOMEN IN MARTINIQUE.
Sleep Seems 10 Be the Chief Industry
 There.


 There.
 That the woman who was Napoleon, first empress, the unhappy Josephine, was born in Martinique, and lived there till she was fifteen. is remember ed perhaps, by very few who have read of the current disorders among the people of that French West Indian is- land, but by the residents thereof it is never lost sight of for a moment. 1t was in Martinique that Josephine ac- quired th6sq qualities which later made her so much trouble-passion, indo- lence and indulgence. The conditions that molded Josephine's character still exist, unchanged and apparently un- changeable. If there has been any change in recent years the movement has been retrogressive rather than forward. Everything tends toward al- most continuous slumber in the French West Indies, from the climate to the rum, and, to speak truth, no one seems in the least to strive against the slumberous influence. To the out sider sleep seems to be the chief in- dustry Of the islands; the people ap- pear to sleep, sleep, sleep, from morn ing till night Of course there are times of the day when the sleeping is more nearly general than at other times, just after the midday breakfast, for instance, and again just after dins ner; then no one remains awake. The attempt to Christianize the harmless and peaceful savages who originally peopled the islands, now French West Indian, began 400 years ago, resulted in practical extermination, and the place of the carlos was taken by the negroes. Little by little since thep the influence of tie negro blood has increased; since emancipation in 1S48 the white population has decreased, the influence and interest of the whites have grown less year by year, home and social life has grown nar- rover. prejudices have grown stronger and more numefous, and there is little likelihood of lasting improvement in any direction. Washerwomen in Mar unique are made, not born. The strength, health and constitution re- Quired for their calling is not neees- sary in any other. A habit of standing for days in the cold river is cultivated from Chicago News.

Advance in Higher Education.

The advanced stages of education are becoming more thiekly crowded. TWen- five years ago only per cent of the population was enrolled in the public high schools, now the percentage is 0.61-the number of such pupils having increased from 22,900 in 1876 to 449,- 600 in 1898. The number in private high schools has increased in the same time from 73,74O to 105, ,225-there hav- ing been a decrease relative in pop ulation. This indicates large meas ure of advance in the public high schools as preparatory schools for eol- ieges over what was the case years ago.

EXPLOSION OF CARBIDE
In The Basement Of The Opera House Block.

What might be termed a fortu.
nate unfortunate accident occurred in
the basement of the Opera House
Block Friday evening few minutes
before six o'clock. About six weeks
ago Mr.. Fowler discontinued the use
OF town gas, and decided to furnish
his own light. He placed in the eel
lar an acetylene generator.
The new system of illumination
gave the best of satisfaction until FRI
day evening when the lights apparent
ly became dim. DESTROYS of ascer-
tanning the cause of the decrease in
light, Mr.. Fowler went into the cellar,
and after lighting a jet proceeded to-
ward the generator. He had taken
only step or two, when an explosion
occurred shaking the foundations of
the building. The top of the gener-
ator was blown off, and it was other
wise damaged. There were several
buckets fastened on the generator,
containing the carbide. These were
lying on the floor and in some man
ner caught fire, and for the instant
forgetting the danger of his act Mr..
Fowler threw a bucket of water on
them. This caused another explosion
but the report was not near SO loud
as the first. He finally succeeded in
extinguishing the blaze, and made his
way to the top of the steps, where he
was met by members OF various fire
companies who had responded to a
call sent IN from box IS, located on
the corner of Main and Center streets.
A connection had been made and the
water turned on. Mr.. Fowler gave
orders to turn the hose the other way,
explained the great danger ofthrowing
water on the carbide. The fremen
at once comprehended the situation
and the hose was carried out just as
the water had reached the nozzle.
The windows of Frank Parks bar
ber shop were all broken by the con-
cussion as was also several panes in
w, o. Holmes plumbing establish
ment window. Mr.. Fowler had his
eyelashes singed, but otherwise was
uninjured.
The accident was unfortunate, but
fortunate that it occurred when it did.
Had it happened two hours later, the
Opera House would have been filled
with people, panic would surely have
followed, and many people would have
been seriously injured if not killed,
The result of cry of fire when per
formance is IN progress was demon
strated two years ago, and then the
blaze was mile from the theatre.
With the fire in the building at such
a time the result can be better i'm
gined than described.

BAR Nj EETING.
Resolutions Passed on the Death OF Charles
c. Barldey Esq.

Pursuant to a call, the members oil
the Bar of Columbia County met in
the Court Room on Saturday, Oct
ober 18th at one o'clock in the after
noon. The meeting was called to
order by Col. John G.. Freeze, Pyesi-
dent OF the Bar Association, who stat
ed the object of the gathering, and
called on the committee on resolu-
tions, previously appointed, for their
report, which was read by H. A.
MKillp Esq. The report is as fol,
lows:
To the President and Members of
the Bar of Columbia County:-Your
committee on resolutions offers on be-
half OF the Bar,its tribute to the men,
ory of Charles Gillespie Barkley, Esq
On Wednesday morning, October
10th, 1900, the mortal life of Mr..
Barkley was rounded with the sleep
that knows no waking for the body.
Although until the end hopes were
entertained for his restoration to
health, yet not unexpected came the
silent messenger to summon him from
things earthly to things spiritual.
Mr.. Barkley was born January 80,
1889. After spending a portion of
his life as a teacher in our common
schools and as County Superintendent
he devoted his entire attention to the
practice of law.
In 1860 he began the study of law
with Col. John G.. Freeze, was admit
ted to the Bar in 1868, and began &C
tive practice in 1872, at the expiration
Of his duties as County Superintend-
ent.
Mr.. Barkley was twice member of
the Town Council; tor a number Of
years Town Solicitor; Solicitor for the
County, and was also candidate for
President Judge of this district in
1889, but failed of nomination; from
1874 until his death he was a trustee
of the State Normal School and for a
time Principal of the same institution.
As a citizen Mr.. Barkley was pro-
gressive and active in everything tend
ing to the welfare of the community
in its religious, educational and com.
mercial economy. AS man his daily
life was a continual exemplihcation of
high and noble characteristics; his
strength of character, deep religious
convictions, his problty and unblem-
ished reputation developed his useful
career and his qualities as a leader.
As llwyer Mr.. Barkley was in the
front rank at the Bar. Well ground
ed in legal principles, peculiarly de-
liberate, cool and clear in his reason
ing and judgment, standing boldly and
tenaciously for his clients interests,
ye. taking no undue advantage, un-
swerving in his integrity, he was at
once a wise, safe and conscientious
counsellor, and in his death the com
munity has lost good citizen; the
Bar an able advocate, companion,
able man, one true in his friendship:
and ever ready to smooth for Others
the rough parts of life; and the family
a loving and indulgent husband anc
father. CHARLES w. MILLER,
