HOW TO COOK THE TURKEY
some Practical Advice Given BY a
New York Chef.


New York Chef.
There is a chef IN one of the large
hotels Of New York who Is famous for
his roast turkey Turkey under his
hands comes out not only beautiful
brown, but Of a delicious flavor quite
different from any other turkey that
ever was seem Tie turkey meat Is
positively rich, aud even the white
meat that Is generally dry has n moist
spicy taste This Is his recipe for
roast turkey:
Clean the turkey with rs little han
ding as possible and rinse with wa
ter IN which a little baking soda has
been dissolved Now break up about
hall a pint Of bread crumbs, and into
the crumbs chop two links of pork
SAUSAGE stun the turkey with this
mixture and just before putting into
the oven bind salt pork on the breast
Of the turkey Remove the pork just
before the turkey Is taken from the
oven When tie meat Is carved, les
flavor Will be found very superior
This IS particularly to be recommended
for the THANKSGIVING turkey which,
with 50 many other daiuties riynling II,
must be very appctlzng 20 be enjoyed.

AS the world stands to-day, the fail

and disintegration, rather than from
the invasion of armed enemies The
mightiest empires Of the past, whose
legtonS once ruled good part OF the
world, arc falling into bankruptcy
which must inevitably end their c--
istence rs independent countries. Tie
absorption Of Persia by Russia and
Great Britain is concrete illustration
of the new method Of invasion Of one
country by 4 more powerful empire.
Persia Is practically bankrupt ma
tion to-day. and is owned part and
parcel by Russia and Great Britain.
She has raised loans time and again
from the two Powers. and to-day mort
cages cover her railroads and chief
industries. The end of her resources
may not yet be in sight, but she las
practically delivered over half her en-
pire to Russia and the other half to
England. The result is that Persia
is hardly an independent country. She
can not make move in the game
of politics without consulting her own
ers, and if she attempted it one Oh tie
other would block the move.

Before sentence was passed the

Of days before l committed the

Czolgosz sat down. He was quite
calm but it was evident that his
mind was flooded with thoughts Of
his own distress. His eyes were
dilated, making them heavy and
bright. and his cheeks were trife
pale. The guards put the hand
cuffs on his wrists. He looked at one
of the officers. There was an eX-
preston of the profoundest fear and
helplessness in his eyes. He glanc-
ed about at the people who crowded
together in efforts to get look at
him. The prisoners eyelids rose
and fell and then he fixed his gaze
upon the floor in front Of him.
