MR.. HILLS URBANITY.

Assistant Secretary OF State Kind to
Young Reporter.
Late one night young reporter en-
ployed in the Washington bureau Of a
newspaper was sent to the house of AS.
sstant Secretary Of State David j. Hill
to get information about the develop
ments in an important matter then &C.

partment, says the New York Times.
Some time after he had rung the bell a
window was raised. and DR.. Hills head
appeared. The reporter apologized for
waking him and told what he was aft

consented to enlighten the reporter
through the window

he ventured when the flood had sub

tary, with an air Of surprise. Then l

and this time considerable volume of
Greek descended from the window. A
third inquiry from the reporter brought
forth some German. followed on the
fourth attack in French. All the time
DR.. Hill wore an air Of great urbanity
and seemed to be fairly exuding infor-
nation. The reporter thanked him fee
bly,.
Not at all necessary" said DR.. Hill
as he pulled down the window and
went back to bed.
The reporter walked on all sides Of
the sidewalk on his way back and was
thought by unprecedented observers to
be under the influence of liquor. The
Lext day DR.. Hill met the chief of the
bureau to which the young man was
attached, and the chief remarked that
his reporter had not been able to get
much out of DR.. Hill the previous

"Indeed?" said DR.. Hill in an inter-

Pumpkin pie has a tender hold " III
the American heart. and as squash .,ie
Is its nearest kin it. too, comes in fo Il
share of honors. Hubbard squashes
may be reckoned among our most val
ued fruits. Fruits they are because
they contain seeds. Only tubers and
roots, such as potatoes, beets. turnips,
carrots. onions, dare be called vegeta-
bles. TO return to the squash question,
few housekeepers comparatively have
tried it's virtues in any other shape
than disguised with eggs, spice and
cream in a pie filing. Sections ot
squash with the rind on set in the oven
and baked are as delicious as sweet
potato. Many serve the pieces still IN
the rind, and each buffers, salts and
peppers to taste. Stewed squash dress
ed with cream and butter and sGallop-
ed squash baked in the oven are both
tempting dishes.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Hints to Housewives.

Pantry shelves should be lined with
white oilclOth, which Is easily wiped
clean with damp buster and always
looks fresh and nice.
Whoever gives out the weekly linen,
whether mistress or maid. should be
careful to observe that linen Of O sort
Is used in turn-that Is to say, If there
are several sets of linen for the same
purpose take for use each week that
which has been longest in the cup
board, not the set that was returned
last from the wash. In this way linen
will in sAe ordinary course last for
much longer time than would other
wise be the case.
TO impart to the kitchen tables that
wonderful wilderness which some such
tables possess no soap or soda should
be used in cleaning them, but sand
should be employed instead, this be-
ing briskly rubbed over the surface Of
the wood with hot water and rough
brush. If whitewood tables are thus
scrubbed, they will present a brilliant
wilderness which will put to blush the
appearance of a table scrubbed with
soap and soda.

SETTLED
HAS BEEN THE FAMOUS MONTE
YUMA PLACER MINING
CASE.
Has Been Before the Land Department
for Three Years-Opinion In the
Matter by the Register-land In
Question Adjudged to Be Mineral
In Character.

The famous Montezuma placer min
ing case, which has beeen before the
land department since 1898, upon an
application for patent, was yesterday
John H. Mullison, so far as the local
office is concerned, says the Cheyenne
Leader.
Special Agent George B. Abbott OBJ
jected t o the issuance of patent on the
ground that there was not gold in the
claim in paying quantities. After sew
eral postponements a hearing was held
at Saratoga in June for the purpose of
taking testimony, and at the request of
the claimant a final hearing was held
at Cheyenne last week. The testimony
was considered in favor of Mr.. Multi
son, and Register Chaplin so decided.
In his opinion he says:
The witnesses for the government,
summoned by Special Agent Abbott
and his successor, T. J. jenkins, were
James NJ. Sterrett, Charles B. Sterrett,
Joseph B. Bassett, John Landon and
Edwin w. Bennett. In the main their
testimony is hearsay, and tends in a
great degree to show the mineral char
acter of the land in question. All tes-
tify that they believe some gold exists
in the land. Joseph B. Massett, a min
er of Carbon county, Wyoming, testi-
fed hat he and a partner worked IL
a piece of ground twenty feet long,
four feet wide and from three to five
feet in depth, or about 800 cubic feet
of dirt, and that they extracted IS in
gold, or sixty-six and two-thirds cents
per cubic yard, and he didn't believe
that all the gold was saved. The evil
dence OF Hassett, corroborated in the
main as it is by other witnesses for
the government, is of itself sufficient
to establish the mineral character of
the land.
THE witnesses for claimant, Multi
son, qualified themselves as practical
miners of long experience, and their
testimony goes to prove that this is
the case. They testified that the claim
is a practical mining claim; that it can
be worked at a cost of not to exceed
ten cents per cubic yard, and upwards
of fifty cents per cubic yard can be eX-
tracted from the ground.
