by his master, who was disloyal. The
government will not pay that claim"
One of the most important claims
that has been before the court for
long time was that Of Charles G. Lund-
borg, who demanded a judgment Of
$250,0O0 for an alleged use of certain
plans and specifications prepared by
him in the construction of vessels for
our navy. Under date Of May 8, 1885,
the secretary of the navy published an
invitation ito all engineers and me-
chahics of established reputation, and
all reputable manufacturers of vessels,
steam engines, boilers or ordnance,
having or controlling regular estab-
lishments and being engaged in the
business; all officers of the navy, and
especially all naval constructors, steam
engineers and ordnance officers of the
navy, having plans, models or designs
of any vessels, or of any part there
of, Of the classes authorized by the
naval appropriation act Of March 3,
1885, to submit such plans, models and
designs to the secretary o. the navy"
This claimant, Lundborg, submitted
plans which were never used nor re-
turned to him. Because the depart
ment did not return his plans the claim
ant has asserted that they were -

cRYSTALLIZED FRUITS.
They Form q Delightful Adjunct to
the H0usekeeper's Store Of
Holiday Daintiea.

The manufacture of these sweet
meats is really quite simple matter,
coming easily within the capabilities
of the ordinarily clever housewife,
while the expense Of preparing them
is very small. OF the various fruits
best adapted to this purpose, peaches,
pears and plums, pineapples, cherries
and currants, are the most generally
used, and are prepared as follows:
Stone the peaches, plums, etc., by
making a small incision in the side,
through which the seed is slipped,
pare and quarter the pears, and cut
the pineapple into slices half an inch
in thickness, across the fruit. Weigh
and allow an equal quantity of the
best white sugar, make rich sirup,
adding one small cup of water to
each pound of sugar. Boil for few
minutes, together, then add the fruit
and cook gently until clear, but I'M
broken. Remove carefully on wire
strainer and let it stand about an
hour, or until perfectly cold, then
sprinkle literally with powdered sugar,
and stand the strainer on dish IN
moderately warm oven for two
hours. At the expiration OF that time
turn the fruit. sprinkle as before with
the sugar, repeating the process until
the juice has quite ceased to drip,
and the outside is dry and crystal
lized. It is then removed from the
oven and allowed to get perfectly
cold, before being packed away in
small boxes between layers of waxed
papers. Thus packed and stored
away in dry place, it will retain its
perfect condition for an indefinite
length of time, forming a charming
adjunct to the housekeeper's store OF
"extras." It is perhaps necessary to
add word of caution in regard to
overheating the oven, the exact
amount required being ascertained by
experimenting, since too great a de-
gree of heat will most effectually
change delicious sweetmeat into the
toughest of leather.-Good House

cepted and that he was entitled to the
amount set forth. As matter of fact,
the plans presented by Lundborg con.
tanned nothing of value that was new;
and such suggestions made by him az
were valuable were already in use in
British, French and American war ves-
sells. For example, the claimant lays
particular stress upon his tank sys-

claims disposed of this contention by
showing that Mr.. Froude. the eminent

Potter agreed to do 10 and readily
consented to do all in her power to
make the Rotations as effective %
possible.
The following Sunday evening, just
as the rector finished his sermon, she
stepped in front of the audience and
with great feeling recited one of the
most touching hymns in the Epis-
copal hymnal. Many of the audience
were moved to tears. The church,
which had been packed in anticipa-
ton of the innovation, was as still al
the proverbial pinfall during the tai"
ented woman's part of the pro-
gramme. Mrs. Potter was dressed all
in white and recited in a low but per.
fectly distinct tone.
Mrs. James Brown Potter will be
remembered as the society woman
who foresook the social world for
the stage. Sixteen years ago she was
belle at Newport and New York,
and her pretty home in Washington
square was the center of New York
life. But discomfort entered and Mrs.
Potter took to the stage. For many
years her husband expected her to re-
turn, but gradually hope died out and
it became known that the brilliant So
ciety bud had become no less q bril-
liant flower of the stage.
In the Potter home there was q
small child, Anne Urquehart Potter,
called "Fifi," who was left to her ia
theirs care. Miss Potter recently
married Mr.. Stillman, son OF the New
York banker. Between mother and
daughter during the many years that
have intervened there has been little
communication. Once they met, some
years ago, but no tenderness passed
between them.
Mrs. Potter is one of the most
striking woman of the stage. Not
young in years, she has preserved her
girlish looks and is positively youth
full on the stage. At her country
seat near London she spends her days
out of doors, and when o reporter
visited her recently she was picking
roses in the garden, the very picture
of sweet 16 in figure and in artless
grace

GRAcEs LONDON PULPIT.
to Assist Mt Sunday Evening
Services.

Mrs. Potter, the American actress,
has been offered a salary by London
church to assist in the Sunday even
ing services. The plan is that she
recite for the congregation at 9
given time in the course of the ex-
ercises. She will dress in her own
conventional garments and in no way
introduce sensational features.
London is still talking of the ire
mendous sensation produced by Mrs.
James Brown Potter the first Sunday
she electrified fashionable London
church audience by her Rotations.
The rector, with whose family Mrs.
Potter was visiting, proposed to her
that she recite certain hymns as an
addition to the evening service. Mrs.

HOW TO TALK WELL.
An Accomplishment That Adds Mere
to the Beauty of Home Than
Rich Furnfshin4s.

A gracious presence and cheerful.
well-modulated voice have more pow
er to create beauty in the home than
all the Injuries that money can buy.
The parent and teacher cannot over
estimate their moral value also. They
forestall opposition, allay irritation,
and prepare the way for receptivity.
What is called personal magnetism
is largely capable of analysis. If .
stiff, undressing person has gem
uine kindness and sincerity, though
he have only ordinary endowments,
he can be transformed by correct
training.
A husky, dill or weak voice may
be. made pleasant and clear, q SLOW.
enly enunciat:on may become elegant,
a slouching gait dignifed, and an ua-
attractive person may become win
some. The charm of manner consists
in its graces, its. simplicity and its
sincerity. Cultivate pleasant man
ner of laughing. Keep the voice SYM
pathetic and cheerful. A mother or
teacher with querulous voice is re-
sponsible for much mis- behavior.
Look with interest, but without
staring, at the person with whom you
are talking. Do not let your eyes
wander over her clothes or round the
room. Be simple and sincere. Be
yourself good listener while an
other is talking. While talking to
a number Of people scattered round
a room, even though you are telling
the story especially to one, let all the
Others feel that their presence is rec
ognized and their interest is appre-
ciated. Hold each one pleasantly
with your eye.-Watchman.

Peculiar Sect Of Women.

Among the villagers on the Volga
in the province of Samara curious
sect of women has made its appear
ance. It was originated by an elderly
peasant woman in Soznavo, called the
.Blessed Mother" These women
have fed from the villages around
into remote district, where they
live singly in holes dug out of the
face of tn. hill. They lead life of
fasting and prayer, and believe them
selves called from the world which
they think is shortly about to perish
in general confagration. The "Bles-
sed Mother" has ''ten wise virgins" az
. sort of bodyguard, and the sect be-
lieves that these II women are pos
sessed with miraculous powers.
