A LADY misunderstood.

When the gallant defender of Mafe-
king was Assistant Military Secretary
at Malta he was in great request as a
, leader in all entertainments and indeed
was an indispensable M. c., at such
functions AT concert given for some
charity young lady had contributed
a skirt dance, which called forth much
applause and many encores. ASK that
girl to do it over again, will you, Pow
ell?" said the principal military chief
present The Major Gas he was them)
stepped up to the fair danseuse and put
the request as fascinatingly as he knew
how 1t was in vain. II really
couldn't" she lsped, in rather af-
fected manner. You see I'm almost
breathless now even; and-and--indeed
should be quite blown if I did it
again!" What does she say?" asked
the commandant on his ambassadors
return. ''She says, Colonel" replied
Baden-Powell, rather piqued, and quite
loud enough for all round to hear
1.-The young lady says she'll be blowed
if she does 1t again!" 1t is believed that
the fair amateur had the bad grace to
be absurdly angry with the gallant Off

OLD-TIME GEORGIA DINNERS.

No Reason Why the Wellto-Do Should
Have Grown Thin.
An old-fa shioned gentleman growing
eloquent on the subject of Southern
hospitality and the viands that were set
before friends and neighbors when in
vited to feast, a reporter said:
"Will you state your recollectione of
what was served on such occasions if
write it down?">
"Of course I will" was the reply. IT
can see such a table in my minds eye
right now. First there was soup, of
course. If it was cold weather we had
oyster soup, or perhaps fish. If it was
in the midst Of the vegetable season,
we had rich high colored beef soup,
with plenty of tomatoes, okra, grated
corn and such like, well proportioned
and we'll seasoned with pepper and
little onion.
when the soup plates were taken Off,
and after the tureen was set aside, then
a fine home raised ham took its place
in front of the hostess. I can discern
the delicious flavor right now in my
recollection. Sometimes the skin was
peeled off and the outside pletifully
sprinkled or busted with black pepper,
and that delicious meat was good as
long as a piece was left ON the bone.
For my part, L. liked it NEST with the
skin left on, because the meat was cur
ed so perfectly that even the skin was
toothsome and preserved the juices I'M
til the meat was consumed.

the season was winter or
early spring-garnished with parsley
and slices of cold boiled eggs. The
dressing was rich, made of breadcrumbs,
otherwise man was filled with thick
rich batter, plenty Of eggs, plenty Of
butter, daintily seasoned and cooked un-
til the stuffiing was of the right con-
sistency, and then the fowl was pack |

LECTURE BY PROF. BOURNE
A uSPfCES OF THE NEW HAYEN UNI
PERSITY EXTENSION CENTER.

The First Of Course of Five Lectures
| on "The Territorial Expansion of the
| United States, 17s3-Is99."
| or no expansion" is one of the vexed
questions in American party politics, it
| is of invaluable benefit to all good citi-
zens to reason this question out calmly
| in the light of history. To do this with
| the assurance of a reasonable measure
of success, the best plan is to go to the
fountain-head for facts and informa-
ton And the reliable historian, the
dispassionate observer of things as they
are, not as parties wish them to be,
surely is the best authority on matters
historical. For even to the most intel
ligent, the application of deduction and
induction to history may lead to the
most disastrous results, but as Burns
has it 'facs are chiefs that Wilma
ding"
Professor Edward G. Bourne of Yale
university delivered the first of his
course of lectures on THE Territorial
Expansion of the United States" in
College street hall last evening. A.
Maxcy Hitler, president of the associ-
ationo, introduced the lecturer to an
audience that more than comfortably
filled the hall. The subject Of the lee
ture was Rivalry for the Mississippi
Valley and the Gulf Coast"
Professor Bourne began by determin-
ing the boundaries of the United States
in 1928; followed, by describing the
efforts of the French to control the
Mississippi valley and Gulf coast; and
the origin of Genet's projected attack
on Louisiana and the Floridas. The
third part of the lecture dealt with the
relations of this country and Spain dur
ing the administrations of Washington
and Adams The lecture concluded
with an interesting sketch Of Napoleon's
plans for the expansion of French ter
ritory in North American, and how
they were SO far successful, in recover
ing louisiana
The next lecture will be on 1.-THE An
nexation Of Louisiana and Florida"
1t should have been mentioned, in
connection with Marshall barracks re-
cital Of "a Midsummer Nights
Dream that it was under the auspices
of the New Haven University Exten-
sion center.

10 buy some Of the pork they had con-
tracted to deliver at approximately Slf
per barrel during October. Numerous
private settlements are said TO have
been made, so that while bearish spec
ulators in pork have received some
painful financial injuries, the wounds
have not been mortal Lipton's repre-
sentative allowed one holated short TO
take 1000 barrels at SIS per barrel. To-
day shorts are offering $50.
