eeneral Alban seizes a ship.

COLON, Colombia, Jan. 13.-The South American Steamship company having refused to charter their steamer Lantaro to the Colombian government to be used by the latter as a gunboat General Alban, the military commando CT of this district. has issued decree appropriating the Lantaro. He has taken possession of this vessel and has deposited a sum of money equal to her value with Senor Ehrman, banker of Panama. The captain and crew of the Lantaro will remain in the service of the Colombian government. Cannon are now being mounted upon her, and she will probably sail from Panama today to attack the fleet of the Colom- bian Liberals.

Being unable to write his lame he had to wait for the money. His wife signed his name later and then he was paid the $75. Now Kenny wonders what all this row is about. He did not want to take the money. He was told he was the Joseph Kenny for whom Burpee & Carmody had $75. He did not ask anyone for the money, never claimed 1t as his, and, more, he is willing to return it.
 John Bagley was charged with non- support of his wife and family. Hl pleaded not guilty. The substance of the trouble is that Bagley is like a Jewel that won't sparkle. He is a nrst-class workman, baker, but, ac cording to his wife, drinking has more charms for him. He told Judge Bur Dee that 1t was bad time for his trade, and Judge Burpcc replied il might probably be also a bad season Tor drinking, so far as he was con cerned. Bagley was given a week II which to get work.

BAKER CITY, Or, Jan. 13.-A hu- man sacrifice was prevented by the timely arrival of some Sisters of Chari- ty upon the scene in this city. Fly Wong a paralytic Chinaman, who has been county charge, was returned to the care of his countrymen in China town. While he was an inmate of the county hospital his cue had been cut off. On this account the Chinese made nreparations to offer him as sacrifice to Joss. Fly Wong managed to get a message to the sisters at the hospital, and they rescued him before his life was taken. It is asserted that all prep arations for Fly Wong's execution had been completed when the sisters arriv- ed at the josshouse.

 The case against Joseph Kenny, or Nemesis for obtaining S75 from the law firm of Burpee &S Carmody under false pretenses, was again continued in the city court this morning.

 Some time after the agreement oe- tween Mrs O. $. Parsons and the de. positors in her late husbands bank had been reached by which the latter were to receive 32 per cent, which with the preceding 10 per cent paid, was to be the final payment, an agent was sent out with copies of the agreement to get the signatures of these deposi- tors who were willing to accept the terms offered. Among the names oTi the list of depositors was that of Jos eph T. Kenny, whose claim was Slo The agent sought in vain for Joseph T. Kenney for some time. Then he came across Joseph Kenny. living on South Riverside street and employed by the American Ring Go.

The man called and was questioned. He answered to the Sat isfaction of the agent. let 1t is claimed he was in a quandary. He had TIC money in the Parsons bank.

Some Delicious Dishes which Can BE
Made by the Housewife.
Rhubarb is very wholesome and pop
ular in the spring, but beyond its use In
pies. puddings and sauces. most house
wives do not know how to prepare IT..
The part of the plant best adapted to
culinary purposes is the footstalk of
the leaf, which, unless quite young, Is
carefully peeled and cut into small
pieces. Originally the leaves of the
plant We're boiled as potherb.
Little tartlets of rhubarb are made
with puff paste. The rhubarb. stewed,
sweetened and favored, is mixed with
an equal weight of beaten egg. Then
spoonful is set on a piece of paste. and
when the crust is done the rhubarb tart
is finished.
Or for a change the rhubarb tart may
be half cream in place OF egg. or,
again. a cuStard may be formed with
egg and milk added in half weight to
the stewed rhubarb.
Half stewed rhubarb and half cream
Is the formula for rhubarb cake. A
plate is lined with good pastry. the
mixture is spread thickly over this. an
other crust is laid over the top and the
whole baked.
Cream is almost as much an essen
tial in good rhubarb cookery as gela
tin. In the case of the pie or pudding
mentioned above the addition of cream
when served at table is n necessity if
the best enjoyment of the dish is to be
gained a little gelatin added TO the
juice before it is put into pie. pudding
or tart Will always improve it.
Still another dainty dish may be
