tannery and has secured with the title
right of way 1917 feet wide from the
tannery lot along the Cuyahoga river to
Front ST., and has an option upon 10
feet more for five years.
There are many rumors as to what
will be done with this property, and
it is an assumed fact that factory
of some kind will be established there,
though no definite arrangements have
been made as yet There is some talk
of factory from Cleveland, which will
employ 200 men and boys but there is
as yet no positive information in re-.
gard to this.

The season of the fresh peach is all
ton short for the lovers of this rich
and luscious fruit, but fortunately 1t
may be preserved in many ways, al
though many of these methods partial
ly destroy their fine flavor. Drying
them preserves their delicate aroma
more effcctually than other methods,
but when canned or preserved they
are more attractive in appearance
for the table.
While the peach, like the apple, be-
longs to the order Rosacea, 1t possesses
none Of its hard qualities, but is very
perishable. OF all the common fruits
1t contains the smallest amount of
sugar, not more than 1.57 per cent, and
is therefore specially adapted for the
diabetic and gouty. in its fresh condi-
ton; evaporated the fruit is sweeter,
as 1t is then In condensed form. The
stone removed, there is comparative
ly no solid matter, as the fruit con-
slsts entirely of juice, with the ex-
ception of one to two per cent solid.
This juice possesses strong but deli
cate aromatic flavor and Is really a
naturally brewed nectar which is
most satisfying as well as delicious
and is enclosed In balls of gold which
melt almost at the touching Of the
lips.
SWEET PEACH SHORTCAKE.
The plain shortcake can be made
by same recipe which calls for straw
berries, but many like the sweet peach
cake. Take a large tablespoonful of
butter ana cup of granulated sugar
and beat them TO cream. Beat three
eggs light and add TO sugar and but.

Helena, Mont, July 29.-The first state
convention of socialists ever held in Mon

didates for two state Offices to be filled
this fall Only twenty-four of 1877 dele
gates were present --
Alexander Freeman, of Gallatin county,
was elected chairman, and P. ]. Cooney,
OF Silver Bow, secretary. Several per-
sons were nominated for congressman-at-
large, but declined. George B. Sproule.
of Helena, a photographer, finally con-
sented to run. William ID. Cameron, of
Chico, Park county, placer miner, was
nominated fer associate justice of the su-
preme court after several others had de-
clined to run. J. F. Fox, of Butte, was
elected national committeeman.
The resolutions adopted after outlining
the socialists principles demand that an
eight-hour law be incorporated in the
constitution, declare for the referendum,
woman suffrage, against blacklisting, de-
mand the passage OF an employers liza
bility act, and collective ownership. Fus-
ion is denounced and sympathy extended
to the Pennsylvania miners.

John Paid $40 for His Box, but the

\ Recent developments have caused some
investigation of POLICE Captain Coffee

incident of his residence in Utah has been
discovered. Before coming to Minneapolis

when Colonel .Mapleson, the famous oper-.
attic impressario, Brought his company Of
artists to Salt Lake y John made up his
mind to attend the performance. He was
mulcted $40 for his tickets and didn't like
it a bit. In his memoirs, Colonel Maple

were attracted to a restaurant kept by. one
Coffee John, in whose window was exposed
huge turtle, bearing this tragic inscription on
its head: "This afternoon, am to have my

for a private box, with the statement that
Coffee John had paid $40 for it,. and was
going to visit the opera that evening.

hearing them sing, and allowing many OF
them to go into the kitchen to prepare their
own maccaroni. The price OF the luncheon
was very moderate, so everyone decided to

When dinner was over they asked the waiter
how much they had to pay,
'Six dollars a head" said the waiter.
"Corpo di Bacco!' exclaimed one of the
artists, ''dat is too dear! where Is Cotfee
John, our friend, our friend?'
sHe has gone to dress for the opera. re-
piled the head waiter, land / dare not disturb
him. ~. ..~ H.. n .-1. = -
AS there were twelve diners the bill came
to $72, so that Coffee John, who had paid $40
for his box, occupied it for nothing that even
ing and profited, moreover, largely by the
transaction The waited told the astonished
artists that his governor had paid $40 to hear
them sing, and that he expected liberal
treatment in return; finally he thought the
best plan for them would be to pay their
Sc each and clear out; which they eventually
had to do - ~
Another version of the story, current
among old timers in the Mormon city, IS
that Colonel Mapleson himself visited the
restaurant, and when informed OF the size
Of the bill hinted strongly that It's steep
ness reminded him of Mount Blanc and re-
fused point blank to pay. Wnen tne
economical colonel reached his train that
evening, however, he found deputy

IF the grand jury can get one man to

after this evidence now, but 1t is doubt

on one man. lie has already been indict-
ed, tried and convicted In connection with
the Ames scandal, and there is apparently
no reason why he should shield any one,
now that he has already suffered disgrace.
+ The authorities are convinced that
there has been corruption in connec-
tion with the bestowal of offices by the
board Of charities and corrections. They
have information that $1,S00 apiece was
paid by two men for important positions
they are now holding In justice to the
members OF the board now in the city 1t
should be stated that none of them Is
involved.
The grand jury went to work this
morning, but was obliged to turn It's at

the police. This occupied the whole
morning and then the inquisitors were
ready for remnants Of the police gang
