HOUSEHOLD TALKS.
some Suggestions for the CulIn.
Department Which May be
Found Useful

Chicken paprika may be used AZ
luncheon or supper dish or as a din
ner course, and lends itself readN,
to the chatting dish.
Boil two chickens until they Ar,
tender, and the bones can be "a
moved readily. Make sauce Of
half cupful of strained tomato iujcs
one cupful of cream, two tablespoon
fuls of butter and two tablespoon,
fuls of -four. Heat the tomato iuic.
and add the butter. When the latts,
is melted stir in the flour and cooI
for five minutes, stirring constant,
until smooth. If there are anv
Jumps, strain the sauce. While hot
add the cream. and when hot again
season with paprika to taste; turn in
the chicken, and when heated
through serve. In place of the TO-
matoes all cream may be used, and
Just before removing from the fra
the yolks of two eggs may be beaten
in, says the New York Tribune.
A crown, or Philadelphia roast, on
a hot day adds to the attractiyenes,
of the table, if the butcher has done
his part of the work well, This
roast, which consists of rib chops
trimmed and skewered together
with the meat side down, will need
only a short time to cook-ius,
enough to brown properly. The cen,
ter may be filled with riced potato
or green peas.
In household where fruits appear
at every meal and in many guiSes, a
fayorite way of preparing prunes
dates, figs and raisins is soaking
them in cold water until all the lost
moisture has been restored. They are
then drained, rolled in rranulated
sugar and placed in a single layer on
board to dry. They are used in
place of bonbons. The stones are
removed from the dates and prun@
after the soaking, but before they
are sugared. The prunes need a
longer soaking than the other
fruits. The ceaters may be filled
with nuts or with fondant,

wives, know that natural green
color may be preserved in green
vegetables by simply leaving of The
covers of the kettles in which they
are boiling. Soda should never b
used with green vegetables. The
green color that it gives is unnatural
and so, rcpulsive, and the flavor o.
the vegetable is always destroyed By
its use. If vegetable is so tough
that soda is needed to soften it, d
would be better not to use the yege

Waterloo Elk After the Nominations
Campaign Opened at Denver by
Senator Beveridge.

DUBUQUE, Ia. Sept. 1s.-The Republican
congressional committee of the Third dis
trict met here to-day and decided to call
convention at New Hampton, Ia, Sept.
Is, to consist of the delegates to the con-
vention which nominated Colonel Hender-
son, to nominate a candidate to succeed
him. This action was taken after con-
sideration of the Iowa election law. Before
acting the members Of the committee called
upon General Henderson and requested him
to reconsider his withdrawal. He declined
to do so. stating that his decision was
final Before adjourning the following reso-
luton was adopted:
1T is with deep regret that we find our
selves compelled TO reconvene the dele
gates of this district for the purpose of
naming a candidate for election to repre-
sent this district In the national House Of
Representatives. This Is especially true
when we realize that the necessity for such
action is caused by the refusal of our pres
ent member to accept the nomination here
tofore rendered him unanimously by a con-
vention called. In his declination we feel
that we lose an able. capable leader Of
great worth and national prominence, such
as can be attained only by one of sturdy
character, unusual natural ability, and
ripened experience in the field of statesman
ship. We part with him as a leader with
reluctance. While thus compelled to re-
lease Speaker Henderson. We do so with no
will be without merit or that there will re-
suit any danger as to thet result to the
Republicans of this district in the COM
ing election"

EVIDENCE OF MURDER
NUDE BODY OF WOMAN FOUND IN A
JERSEY CANAL.
Identified by a Tailor as that of His
wife-wefght Attached TO the
Waist of the Body.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-The nude body
Of a young woman was found to-day in the
Morris canal between Newark and Jersey
City, and was tonight identified by Joseph
Pulitzer, of 100 West Forty-sixth street,
Manhattan, as that of his wife Annie,
who had been missing since Tuesday. The
discovery of the body was made by the
driver of an express wagon passing along
the plank road on the bank Of the canal
on the Meadows. An attempt had
been made to sink ii with twenty-pound
iron weight attached to long hitching
strap, the other end of which was tied
around the waist. A long stab wound was
found in the abdomen and later examina-
ton by County Physician Converse re-
vealed the fact that the woman's skull
was fractured. Dr. Converse thought that
probably two days had elapsed since the
woman was killed, but that the body had
been in the water only few hours. The
body was removed to Jersey City and Chief
of Police Murphy put all of his available
detectives on the case.
Pulitzer and his wife lived at the ad-
dress given in a boarding house kept by
a Mrs. Fleming. Mrs. Fleming said to-
night that the couple had been with her
for about a month and that the husband
was a journeyman tailor. On Tuesday
evening Mrs. Fleming said that Pulitzer
complained of feeling Ill and that his wife
went out about midnight saying that she
would get him some fruit. Mrs Fleming
said that she did not see Pulitzer again
until this morning, when he told her that
his wife was missing. and that he had
been telephoning to her relatives in the
hope of finding some trace of her. To-day
he went to police headquarters and gave
a description of the missing woman, but
did not ask to have general alarm sent
out He returned home for dinner, when
he was shown an evening paper containing
account of the finding of the body and
on reading the description, which tailed
with that of his wife, hurried to Jersey
City, where he at once identified the body.
After the Identification Pulitzer was de-
tanned by Chief Murphy.

MARSHFIELD. Ore, Sept. 1S.-Alonzo
Tucker, colored. who assaulted Mrs. Dennis,

A body of coal miners. heavily armed

to take him from the jail just as the miners
entered and a rush was made for the negro.
He managed to give his custodian the slip
and jumped under the wharf into the mud
flats, and eluded both officers and mob until
to-day. The miners stationed armed guards
at every point of egress from the city The
patrol was kept UP all night and at one
time there was loud talk of lynching the
officers who allowed Tucker to escape.
Every corner of the town was searched and
finally two boys located the fugitive under
a store. The boys fired at him with air guns
and drove him from his hiding place. As he
emerged a ball from a rife caught him in
the right leg.
Tucker ran into the store and was fol-
lowed by the miners. who started to string
him up In the store. but they decided to
take him to the scene of the crime. A start
was made, but the negro died from his
wounds and the mob hanged him to a beam
on the South Marshfield bridge. There was
not a masked man In the crowd and every
thing was done in broad daylight.
