siaughtering establishments, with a knife
that he sharpened upon n steel that hung a.
his side. and that the cuts of meat were
precisely like ours. They used leather and
they did better tanning than we do; the
blood, instead of being rrocessed into fer
tilzing, was used for cooking purposes: and

A little later In the worlds history we

good price for il. Tough steak is very poor
economy But il is in the mixed dishes
that economy is possible, and, therefore,
working knowledge of some of them Is TO
be recommended. For instance, a steak
that would by no means be good when
broiled may be so cooked as 10 DE a most
delicious dish. Dust with salt and pepper
a two-pOund steak cut from the round.
Such a steak Will cost much less than
sirlOin or pOrterhOuse. Put IL into double
boiler II the kitchen boasts that conVen-
fence; If not, imprOvise one by putting a
covered saucepan inside a larger one IN
which is the water. Melt in another sauce
pan two tablespoonfuls of butter, adding TO
il three tablespOonfuls Of -four and cook
thoroughly. Add TO this some stock. less
than a pint, one teaspoonful of minced
parsley and a few drops of onion juice,
then pour the mixture over the steak in the
double boiler when IL has become very hot
Let il boil UP quickly, then so regulate the
heat that the meat will merely simmer until
mushrooms. a little minced ham gives a
good flavor and may be used with either
the mushrooms or the oysters.
Another economical way of dealing with
the meat question is TO take the same mex
pensive sort of steak, one Weighing about
two pounds, and stuff it. Make the stuffing
of one cupful of bread crumbs, mixed with
a good-szed piece of butter. seasoned with
salt, cayenne. minced parsley and onion
juice and mOistened with a little stock
Spread this over the steak and roll IL up,
fastening it with string. Put il on the rack
in roasting pan, pour in small amount
of stock and hasten often while baking. In
thirty minutes the meat should be suffi-
GENTLY cooked Place il on a hot platter,
made from the pan liquor add to it a

GRAND JURY ON TRIAL

HAS No JURISDICTION.
The Civic Alliance Loses I'm the At
tempt to Punish JurOrs-Oth-
err Court Cases.

The Civic Alliance was again defeated
yesterday IN its attempt to punish saloon
keepers for violating The law, when Judge
Afford, OF the Criminal Court, held that he
had no jurisdiction in the impeachment
proceedings filed against the grand jurors,
and could not compel them 10 tell how
they voted. The members Of the grand
jury, who were summoned to appear before
the court and show cause why they should
rot be held for contempt, were arraigned
in front of the judges bench. Charles 3.
lockwood and Charles Haugh, two men,
bers Of the jury, were represented by John
s Duncan, who had pile Of law books in
front Of him. They sat separate from the
other jurors. Hunter McCaslin, another
member OF the grand jury, but against
whom 10 complaint had been made, was
also represented in the demurrer TO the
petition.
Mr. Duncan opened the argument and
said the court had no right TO question the
vote Of the grand jury on any subject as
that would expose how each member voted
and disclose his reason, which, the attorney
SAID. was contrary TO law. n cited numer-
Gus authorities and quoted decisions of
Supreme and Federal Courts. Hi r. Ritz

petition did not ask which of the jurors
voted against the indictments, but he
wished the grand jury punished for not
obeying the instructions of the court He
also sought To show that the Civic Alliance
witnesses had been ridiculed by members
o. the grand jury. and said that Mr.. Dun
can $ argument had no bearing on the case.
Judge Afford was not long in deciding
that he had no jurisdiction in the case. He
said II some of the members OF the grand
jury had left the room or had done other
things not in keeping with the good con-
duct Of Jurymen he would have had juris-
dctiOn TO investigate. He said;
IF this court investigated and removed
the grand jury / believe the acts OF any
grand jury il appointed 10 succeed this one
would be illegal. This court might believe
spies, but for il 10 say that the grand Jury
must do the same would be to usurp its

owners in the neighborhood have for years
endeavored to get the old residence blotted
Off the map. but all efforts have heretofore
been in vain. So strong have been the rep
reservations made to the new board that it
concluded to attend to the matter without
delay and yesterday. after a conference
with Frank NJ. Fauvre, the principal own
er Of the property, it was agreed between
the board and Mr. Fauvre that the Merid-
ian-street part of the unsightly old house
shall be torn down Mr.. Fauvre, it is
stated, will probably erect a handsome
structure on the old site.
George +. McCulloch, of the Union Trac-
tion Company, appeared before the board
in regard to the interurban contract and
asked TO inspect the original contract,
which the board changed considerably at
it's recent meeting. Mr.. McCulloch assured
the members of the board privately that,
as far as he is concerned, there exists no
obstacle to the signing of the contract, and
it is believed that the present draft is sat-
isfactory to all parties concerned. The
members Of the board will probably affix
their signatures to the instrument Monday
morning. a member of the board said yes
terday that, while the Indianapolis Street
railway Company will have a voice in the
future changing OF routes of the interurban
companies, its suggestion must be APP
proved by the board before any change Is
made The members of the board inspect
ed the repairs to the roof of Tomlinson
Hall, which are now going forward, and
made some small recommendations
