WHEN THE
SEASON OPENS.
Editor the REPUBLICAN,.

Editor the REPUBLICAN,.
Sir: 10 set at rest the question Of
the open season for quail and rabbits
In this state, which seems to come up
periodically every year at this time,
will you kindly again publish the fol.
lowing letter:
':Doyer, Del, Nov l, 1898.
"a. H. Poole, President Delaware
Game Protective Association,
Wilmington, Del.
"Dear Sir: Chapter 1872 Of Volume
20 Of Laws Of Delaware, though it
appears in an appendix, was regular.
ly passed by the General Assembly
and is, to all intents and purposes, .
law Of this state, good and valid as
other statutes passed by the Legisla-
ture.
"Its effect was to change the time
within which game could bc killed Ia
Delaware and it is treated as an
amendment to the old game law In
force previous to its passage. While
this law has no penalty, the penalty
provided for by the old law is still iii
force and applies to violations OF this
law. In other words, chapter 1872,
volume 20 is to be read as an amend.
ment to the old law, and to be treat
ed as part ol the old law.
Yours truly,
-. II. Hughes, Secretary of State
The open season therefore in this
state, in which the above game may
be legally killed, is from November
Is to December 81, both inclusive.
Very respectfully,
A. d. Poole, President.

rind should be removed from the melons
as well as the softest part OF the inside
pulp. The ounces, pears and peaches are
not usually peeled.
To make French pickle that is excellent
with all kinds of meat, slice one peck of
white onions, and let them remain in salt
and water twenty-four hours. Then drain
and chop. Add three quarts of vinegar,
one tablespoonful of ground cinnamon,
three-fourths of a tablespoonful of ground
cloves, one tablespoonful of allspice, three
fourths of pound of brown sugar. Let the
mixture cook slowly for three hours. When

Pour this over the cucumbers, and repeat

To Serve the Oyster.

New York Tribune.
The oyster, like fish OF all descriptions. is
not seen upon the domestic menu as often
as 1t should be, while at clubs, hotels and
restaurants oysters are in constant de-
mand, once the season begins. Yet oysters
are easy to obtain, are not high-priced and
are of unusual excellence in the New York
markets. They may be simply prepared, in
a variety of ways, and should not be neg
lected with the coming Of autumn, when
they are at their best and are also a novel
ty for the table.
After the blue point, raw on its deep
shell, with a suggestion Of lemon to its
| flavor, nothing is a more grateful innova-
ton for the breakfast table than the oyster
fried, not the large and fabby oyster, but
| the medium-sized bivalve prepared in Phil
| adelphia style, for that city holds the palm
| for this dish. The restaurant horror known
| as the fried oyster is vastly unlike the
| properly cooked morsel. The Philadelphia
| method calls for three eggs, beaten we'll
! and mixed with a half pint of oyster juice,
a pinch of cayenne, tablespoonful of pep
| per, a tablespoonful of salt and tea
| spoonful of English mustard These are
| worked to batter and a gill or good oil
| is gradually added. Cover a baking board
| with a good layer of cracker crumbs. Drain
| fifty oysters and place them on TIE layer,
dredging the top over with addluonal
! crumbs
| Dip each oyster separately in the batter
| and then roll it on grated stale bread
| crumbs Dip each again in the batter and
! again in the breadcrumbs, handling very
! delicately Then fry in very hot fat, either
| pure bacon or pork fat, or else good butter.
| The daintineSs of this dish depends largely
! on the care in handling. The oysters should
| be manipulated with the fingers, not with
| the palms of the hands, and each should be
| dropped on the pan separately and allowed
| sufficient room while frying.
A dish served at one of the New York
| clubs which is extremely popular is COM
| posed of tripe, despised by the unknowlng.
| but priced by the culinary wise, prepared
with oysters. The tripe. about half pound
| for a dozen oysters, is well washed, sim
| mered for three-quarters of an hour In
| slightly sailed water and then removed.
| To the broth add a tablespoonful of but
| ter rolled in flour, salt and pepper, with
| more -four added to thicken If necessary.
| Return the tripe, add the dozen OF oysters,
simmer and serve This may also be pre-
| pared in chatting dish.

was a white and black-white India silk
and black lace applique.
Shaded silks are reappearing and promise
to be extensively used for costumes and
separate waists. Many Of them arc very
beautiful, the Powered and striped silks
wonders in coloring, all having the SHIN
mertng, satiny appearance. They are OF
little heavier weave than last season and
are said not to crack. 1t is to be hoped that
this is reliable. as most taffetas so far
have cracked and split when worn a little.
New 1annes for shirtwaists como in
stripes, cots, embroidered and plaid effects
and are beautiful in colorings and designs.
Handsome floral patterns from a distance
look like silk Waists buttoned down the
back will be seen, but the model fastened
in front will be a more general choice
Strappings of silk, velvet and of the goods
are used TO trim these waists and all have
rows of fancy buttons. The plain-colored
flannel waist will be seen. but will be made
up without trimming and will fasten in
front. A few have the yoke in front. the
lower part gathered on and blOusing slight
ly. Figured and embroidered cashmeres and
albatrosses make up splendidIy In shirt
waists. They also are used for house gowns
and wrappers.
Hats are in all shades OF velvet. All have
the low-trimmed effect and either coma
down well over the forehead or turn slight
ly off the face. They are tucked, gathered
or corded. and usually are trimmed with
plain corded silk ribbon rOsettes or with
feathers or breasts of some kind The old
fashioned beaver hat appears knocked into
many fantastic shapes. Some are trimmed
with silk and velvet flowers in dull coIors
The roses are made in wreath effect and 90
all around the crown. This. sometimes. is
the only trimming on the hat. Others show
feather and breast trimming. Hats of silk
banded with narrow chenille braid are very
stylish and come in all the leading shapes.
They may be trimmed as suits the fancy.
The cloth hats so fashionable several years
ago are restored to stylishness, but are not
particularly pretty. They are used mostly
for travelling and rough wear. Sometimes
the cloth matches the suit. Breast and wing
trimming is the chief sort used on this type
of hat.

Good Housekeeping.

Good Housekeeping.
Pickles OF one sort or another being the
usual accompaniment of all meals excepting
breakfast, a variety is essential TO every
carefully ordered household. Many kinds

but the housewives own products are pref
~ sure to give the best satisfaction, and
besides. in the homemade pickles there is
sure to be no hurtful acid. Cider vinegar is
preferable in all cases. not only because it
preserves the fruit and vegetables better
than other kinds, but because IL gives a
better flavor. One thing should always be
remembered-that the hands must never go
into the pickle, either 10 stir or remove the
fruit Instead, silver. wOodenware or gran
lite spoons or forks should be employed
never tin or steel.
Boiling the vinegar will weaken it. For
sour pickles il should be scalded only. A
