SECRETS OF PIE MAKING.
The Pastry That Made Mrs. Kane
 FamoUse and Brought Her S3,000.

Famouse and Brought Her s3,00O. Mrs. John F. Kane has written the secrets of the construction of her won dCrful s GOO pie. This triumph Of oven art so delighted John w. Gates that ha and ether multi-millionaires carried 1G0 shares of Northern Pacific for Mrs. Kane in honor of it last May. After the pie has been properly made l there is still the chance of it's proving to be q fiat failure unless it is properly baked.
 This is true of all pastry.
 1 am considering now the kitchen conveniences Cf the dwellers in apart ments like my own. of from i've to six rooms.
 The average time for pie baking is from fifteen to twenty minutes. It varies according to the temperature of 1 the oven when the pastry is placed within it, and the filling of the pie. : Take. for example. an apple pie. which | is an exceedingly popular dessert. If the apples used for filling are uncooked, naturally the time of baking is longer | than when the cooked apple is used. | TO the really good housekeeper there l is only one way of testing the baking : heat of an over. and that is with the 1 hand. After repeated experiments with l thermometers and other methods of
 guessing. I have come to the conclusion that the hand is the infallible test.
 Open the oven doors and place one s
 hare hand within. far enough to get the maximum oven temperature. If the oven is so hot as to cause one to with
 draw the hand to avoid scorching. the

 genuinely brown effect is obtained only
 by skillful baking. I know that many
 people after taking pie from an oven
 will dip q brush into milk and lightly
 paint the top of the hot pie. The heat
 will turn the milk brown. and by this method even an improperly and insuffi-
 ciently baked pie can be made. at least

 snggy in spots. But when you cut it is is light and yet cuts easily. If pi, crust chips off and breaks irregularly when enc cuts it with the fork. thai
 pie crust is not properly made. I be lieve the freezing process is the finish , ing touch needed to make the crus what it should be.
 My recipe for apple pie, which is my favorite next to lemon. is as follows Make the crust as given in my recip, for lemon pie. Fill with quarterec apples carefully selected. Preferably ] make the apples into sauce. Greenine and Baldwin apples are best for cook ing. Flavor with a teaspoonful ot vanilla, dash of nutmeg and sugar tC taste.-New York Journal.

FOOTE AND THE BARBER.

Many an amusing story is told of that eccentric wit. Samuel Foote, among others the following. in which the actor comes across q barber all most as witty as himself. The tale runs that a barber of the name of Wright opened q small shop under the walls Of the Kings Bench prison. The windows being broken. he had stuck them up with paper. on which he in scribed the words. Shave for penny with the usual invitation to customers to ''step inside, while on his docr he had written:
 Here lives Jimmy Wright.
 Slaves as well as any man in Eng
 land
 Almost: Tt quite.
 FoCte. who loved anything eccentric. saw those inscriptions and, hoping tu extract some wit from the author, whom he justl; concluded tn be q "charaoter," pulled off his hat and suddenly showing his head through the paper pane into the shop, called out. "Is Jimmy Wright at home?" The barber with equal promptness forced his head through another pane into the street and replied at the same time "No, sir: he has just popped out The story goes that Foote vas so pleased and amused that he presented the shaver" with 2 handsome tip.-Dese- ret Evening News.

ace to every traveller in the south west. During this period occurred the incident of the naming of Greenback valley. the story of which appeared n The Republican not long ago. In short ,he valley was given that name through the finding by Captain Hancock of Sl00 greenback in a deserted Indian wickiup. It had been taken from traveller murdered by the Indians. who iii their hasty flight from the whites had left the valuable paper in the shack.
 After leaving the service Captain Hancock came to this valley with about a dozen other settlers and being an engineer, surveyed the Salt River val ley canal
 The little settlement was east of the present site of Phoenix. in the direc ton of the canal head. In 1871 Captain Hancock surveyed the present town site of Phoenix and built the first house, an adobe structure that stood until recent years where the west half of the Anderson block now stands and just east of the Palace saloon. It was used at one time or another for almost every purpose and lastly gave shelter t9 the Valley bank before it was moved to it's present quarters.
 Captain Hancock, as postmaster, opened the first mailsack ever brought 70 Phoenix and was later the first sheriff of this county. Subsequently he followed the professions of surveyor and lawyer and as an attorney gave special attention to the land laws. He was at one time probate judge and ! cx-officio the first school superintend- ,--1t of the CDllntV
 He has always taken great interest in matters of g public nature. in the schools. and particularly in the vital question of irrigation.

WHEN THE RAIN COMES DOWN

When the rain comes down, though
 the world grows dull. Every face with joy is full (That just before seemed quite forlorn, And troubled. uneasy lock had worn, As for weeks they gazed with anxious
 eyes
 On the beautiful blue of the sunny
 skies).
 And under each umbrella you meet. As you slide along the slippery street, You're sure to see a smiling face, And hear the people in every place Fully agreeing that. altogether. This is the ''loveliest' kind of weather
 A flood of happiness strikes the town
 When the rain comes down, When the rain comes down the rancher is gay,
 And hustles around in cheery way, And says to his wife: II don't suppose You need to bother with them old clothes: See how it's raining-now, that's just grand," And his wife lets fall from her busy hand
 The pants and patches. and says: "I [ guess I'll be able now to have that new dress We spoke about a month ago. And the rancher cannot answer no, For the rain is singing to him a song That pleases him well as it sweeps along;
 And he laughs and smiles, for the rain song means Corn and barley and hay and beans; And every drop of the welcome rain | Ir-.
 radiant man is Rancher Brown ! When the rain comes down. When the rain comes down, in the shortest while , The tradesmen all begin to smile And rub their hands and stroke thei l chin,
 In fancy ushering customers in: | And the clerks in the store wear a busy air. Dust the counters, and everywhere Hurry about in the greatest haste | Displaying their goods with the incest taste:
 And the shoe-store man is heard to say This is the weather for making hay Parading his rubbers anu stoutest shoes, l use | To ward off levers and colds and chills Rheumatic pains and doctors bills. And the rain still falls with joyous sop,
 A smile embodied in every drop;
 And never q mortal is seen to frown
 When the rain comes down, When the rain comes down the earth
 in bliss. Feels the life-giving, tremulous kiss Upon her lips, of the lusty rain. l And thrills with vigorous life again. She opens her arms to the soft en- brace Of her amorous lover, with smiling face. Drains the sweets of the honeyed showers.
 And dreams of grasses and beautiful
 flowers;
 Dreams of butterflies, birds and bees. Browsing cattle and leafy trees.
 Singing rivers and rills and streams: Oh. sweet, indeed. are the earths Sla,
 dreams,
 The world is wearing a golden crow1 When the rain comes down,

 The event of the week here has been the reception Mir. and Mrs. Me Cabe rendered their friends in hon. or of the twenty-fifth anniversary of their welded life.
 This couple were married March 10, 1877, in the town of Gonzales, Cal. and thus began their first honeymoon. and they are now launched out upon their second. We hope the last honeymoon may be as happy as was the first, and that the afternoon of their lives may Ike gilded by radiant reflection of their morning, and and they may live to celebrate their golden we'd ding. Both are now in tie prime of life and hale and hearty.
 Mrs. McCabe was attired in a lavender silk, trimYed with point lace, and was charming hostess. Mir. McCabe's face was wreathed with happy smiles, as if twenty five years of welded life had been spent happily.
 The evening was pleasantly spent in music, songs, dancing and social conversation. Refreshments were served and all the friends re- tired to their respective homes wishing the couple many more happy anniversaries. They were the recipients of . handsome case of silver knives, forks, table and tea spoons, which was the gift of their children in California.
 Those present were Captain Bur nell, Lieut.. Allison, Lieut.. Anderson Mir. Howard, Adjutant Howell Spencer Brown, Clark and others whose names l failed tp secure.
 Invitations were sent to friends in Valdez, and the steamer Lillie would have carried all over who desired to attend, but the storm prevented them from making the trip.
