INCREAsING ACTIVITY.


The news received here from various
other points tells of increasing activity
| for Colonel Watres. No other candi-
date for governor outside of Colonel
Watres and Attorney General Elkin,
has thus far been announced, and pop
ular sentiment is rapidly making its
choice as between the two. 1t is sim
| ply stating the fact to say that the
candidacy Of Colonel Watres is meeting
with great favor everywhere among
the vast majority of Republicans who
feel that his nomination this year is
essential to the success of the party,
owing to the peculiar political condi-
tions which prevail in the state.
Advlces from Allegheny and other
counties in Western Pennsylvania are
favorable to Colonel Watres.
WHAT MR.. TORRANCE SAID.
Francis F. Torrance, Esq, chairman
Of the Allegheny City Republican COM
mittee, declared in an interview pub
lished early this week that the feeling
is strong against Mr.. Elkin's nomina-
tion. Speaking of Colonel Watres Mr..
/ Torrance said: "As to Mr. Watres. |
have never heard anything but good of
him, and one Of the strongest features
in his candidacy is the fact that he
was elected lieutenant governor on the
/ Republican ticket when the head OF the
/ ticket was badly defeated. / am a Re
/ publican, always have been and hope
/ to be always, but I am constrained to
say that state ticket promulgated by
deals and agreements on the part Of
the administration would meet at the
/ hands Of the state at large the same
/ treatment that the Pittsburg city tick
/ ct did on the eighteenth. The result
Of that municipal election is the hand
| writing on the wall"
WALTER W. LYONS VIEWS.
Former Lieutenant Governor Walter
/ w. Lyon, OF Allegheny In a published
statement. said that honest primaries
would result in the election of dele
gates opposed to what he termed "the
/ Stone-Elhn syndicate" He added:
/ 81 have known Louis A. Watres, OF
Scranton, intimately and politically for
twenty years, He has always been a
/ stalWart Republican and thoroughly
honest In all things, public and private,
/ AS state senator and lieutenant gov
ernor he was absolutely clean. II he
| should be elected governor he would
| nh the Office to the fullest measure"
Similar views are entertained BY
leading Republicans everywhere In the
/ state, and It Is their belief that no bet
ter nomination for governor could be
made this year than that Of Colonel
L. A. Watres. OF Lackawanna.

 PUSHBALL IN ENGLAND.
 The American game of pushball, de. scribed as the greatest game on earth, was introduced to Leeds on the Headingley football grounds before about 5000 spectators The ball is eighteen feet in circum- ference, weighs one and one-half hun dred-weight, and has to have POO cubic feet of air pumped into it before it is playable. The game is played by eight side and four on each side work the ball as forwards, there being also two halfbacks and two fullbacks. To start fhe game the players, who stand five yards away, make a rush at the ball which is squeezed into the air as a re suit of the charge, and is then passed from one group to another, the players using both arms for the purpose When the ball goes over the boal 1 line one point is counted, and three points are allowed when it goes be. tween the goal posts.

CHESTNUT RECIPES
Many Ways for Preparing These De
 licious Nuts.


 As the season for chestnuts, that sweetest and most delicious of Ameri- can nuts approaches, I desire to offer a few suggestions as to their use upon the table. Many person who buys the chestnuts rudely roasted by the vendor on the street corner forgets that the same nut properly treated would furnish a delicacy for the home table. He or she may have eaten it as part of stuffing for the Thanksgiv- ing turkey, but gave no thought to the other and greater possibilities.
 Secure pint of fine large chestnuts. remove the shells and boil in salted water until. tender. Drain and mash them while hot, adding two table spoonfuls of powdered sugar, the same amount of rich, thick cream and two thirds of tablespoonful of vanilla. While still warm run through a ricer on to the dish in which it is to be served moving the ricer so as to form birds nest shaped mass. Prepare at the same time a pint of blanc mango, coloring a portion of it pink. Mold this into egg shaped parts and set away on7the ice to get firm. When firm place the eggs in The chestnut nest and you have a pretty as we'll as an appetizing dish.
 Another dainty dessert is made by boiling, mashing and fiayoring the chestnuts as before. Then arrange a layer of sliced sponge cake on the serv- ing dish, moisten it with fruit juice. and over it press the chestnuts through a ricer or sieve. Set aside until very cold, heap sweetened, whipped cream over the top, and serve at once.
 A chestnut pudding is delicious and not expensive: To one and one half cupfuls of sifted four add one tea spoonful of baking powder, one quar- ter of teaspoonful of salt and one cupful of sugar. Then add two we'll beaten eggs mixed with one-half a cupful of milk and three ta-6 blespoonfuls of melted butter, and beat we'll. Stir in one cupful of coarse ly chopped boiled chestnuts and one teaspoonful of vanilla and bake in a greased pan in a moderate oven Serve with a sauce. This can be made by boiling together one-half cupful of

A common securing brick, such as is used in Kitchens for brightening steel, can be soaked with kerosene oil and put into coal stove and ignited. It will burn about three hours and 2 half, and takes one,half of 3 cup of oil. The brick can be used many times. This is said to furnish heat enough to cook with.
