the work is both unique and practical. As
the meeting covered ten days It was prac-
tically impossible to give in full all the
papers and discussions. especially as there
was at no time single session while
often there were four to six simultaneous
sessions. 1t was therefore impossible to
make a chronological report and instead
the topical order was observed, ard we
have series of chapters on the different
problems and phases of foreign missions
unequaled by anything heretofore published
on that subject. Part first tells the story
of the conference, it's inception. organiza-
tion and conduct. Part second presents
the miss ionary idea in Its principles, re-
sponsibilities and methods OF operation.
Part third gives a survey Of the progress
made during the century. as well as a
survey OF the outlook for the future. Then
follow the appendices, giving much detailed
Information, statistics, etc. The editing OF
the report has been exceptionally able, so
that the two volumes are very readable,
which is something unusual in reports of
that kind. No one interested in the sub
ject OF foreign missions should be without

One important branch connected with the
preparation of foods is too often neglected
the art OF garnishing. And yet so closely
allied Is II to cookery that the most SKILL
ful creation of the culinary artist fails In
Its design to charm without the little mas
terhand touches that show In the manner OF
decorating the dishes.
A garnish means mixture of several
tasty morsels prepared in a rich sauce.
These dishes are very numerous and the
various compounds derive their names from
that of the sauce in which they are served,
as a la poulette, a la fnanciere. and so on.
This term is also applied in another sense,
meaning to lll up puff paste cases or shells
with small birds, sweetbreads, mushrooms,
chicken and oysters and a rich sauce.
To garnish means to decorate a dish
with something to add to its appearance
and attractiveness Suitable and appro-
pirate materials must be selected for this
purpose according to the nature OF the
compound and all tendency TO elaboration
must be avoided in home cooking and
serving. Seemingly unstudied effects are
best, especially when the materials COM
posing the dish are OF dainty and dell
cate nature. Unsuitable and overdone ef-
fects In this line are more displeasing to
persons Of good taste than entire absence
OF decoration.
Besides the ever useful and easily OBJ
tained parsley. we have variety of ma
teral that may be used for decorating the
various dishes. Among the green things
growing" we have lettuce pepper grass,
cress. blanched celery and leaves, olives,
gherkins, capers, small picked beans, mas
| turtiums and even the homely cabbage,
when all else fails. For brighter colors we
have picked beets, carrots, red peppers and
red and yellow tomatoes. Added to this
list are hard boiled eggs, mushrooms, truf-
| Res, chicken lvers, oysters and smelts.
The latter are used by curling them around
! and fastening the tail securely In the
| mouth with a tiny ekeMer.

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY VICTIMS OF A
FIRE IN CHEMICAL WORKS.

Frankfort. April 25.-An explosion at the
Griesheim Electro Chemical Works, near Cries
helm, this afternoon set the factory on fire.
The number of dead and injured is estimated
at one hundred and fifty, but cannot be deter
mined until the list of employees of the chemical
works can be compared with the survivors. The
fire continues to burn. although the greater part
of the Frankfort Fire Department and the troops
trying to prevent it's spread to the build
ings outside of the fire zone. Hospitals have
been improvised in the vicinity. The flames ap
parenty originated by the blowing up of watts
of chemicals in the smokeless powder depart
ment of the works at 3 o'clock this afternoon
They spread with frightfu speed to the adja-
cent buildings and then over the River Main TO
Schwanheim. When a second explosion took
place the fumes and masses of burning chemi-
calls made it impossible to stay in the vicinity.
The inhabitants Of Grieshem were ordered TO
leave their village which they did, fleeing TO
Frankfort.

CURTAILMENT PLAN NOT A GREAT SUCCESS
AND PRICES ARE CUT.

Fall River. Mass, April 25.-The selling committee
this afternoon dropped the price of odd print cloths
TO basis of 2s cents, and slight sales made
the price basis No change made In the
price of regulars for the reason that sales OF
regulars have been made at the 27s price
for time. 1t is likely that the price for regu-
lars will also be lowered when bid for that make
of goods is made the price basis.
The break in the price of print cloths comes as
the result of long period of dulness. The selling
committee has last been brought to n realization
of the futility OF endeavoring to maintain prices
when outside competitors are cutting under the
Fall River figure and obtaining whatever business
there is In sight They had been hoping that the
curtailment plan naugurated over n month ago
would have the effect of strengthening the market
and permitting them to maintain the price at its
old basis. but they did not have the support of
other manufa cturers OF cotton CLOTH who accepted
bids buyers at figures which the selling commit
would not consider. The curtailment plan
has not been the success that manufacturers here
hoped for.
Another probability of the situation is further
curtai;ment when the present term ends.

allowed him 10 remain the grand jury, but
asked Captain Titus of the Detective Bureau TO

sentenced TO a term in the penitentiary. He
