TO INVESTIGATE MONUMENT.
1t is Thought Stone Used Is Not ur
TO Contract

/ 10 OCntFaCG-
Guthrie. o. T., Dec. 1S.-The Hennessex
Press-pemocrat In its last issue contains
a rather sensational story, as follows:
Word comes from Guthrie to the effect
that the territory is investigating the Roy
Cashion monument at this place. on ac-
count Of suspicion that the material
| used in the monument is not Bedford
stone. which the contract called for.
There seems TO be belief prevalent
that an inferior stone was used in build
ing the monument and II is said that the
stone is scaling off and is already showing
the effects Of the weather. Whether there
are any grounds for believing that fraud
was perpetrated in furnishing the monu-
ment, we are unable to say. When the
monument arrived in Hennessey. IL came
on Bedford Indiana. hatcars. Bedford is
the place where the stone is supposed 10
have come from.
Awhile after the contract for building
the Casfion monument was let, a promi-
nent marble ard granite man Of Okla
homa stated to the editor of this paper
that Bedford stone, which was named in
the contract. was not being used in its
construction. This man told us that the
material was good. but that il would not
compare with t4Ie Bedford stone.
Some two or three weeks ago. DR.. r.
L. Winkler. member of the monumental
committee selected by the legislature.

FRIED PIES

This is a domestic and rather plebeian
name for class of dishes which embrace ris
solos, risolettes, kromeskies, etc. In fact,
anything made Of paste like croquette mix
ture or a paste folded and inclosing jelly
or fruit. The rissole and croquette signify
about the same thing, something with
crisp, brown covering, the principal differ
epce between them being that, while the
croquette is coated with beaten egg and
crumbs, the rissoles should have covering
Of flour paste This distinction is not always
made, however.
The rissoletteiis small or fancy shaped
rissole as the name implies.
KrOmeskfes.
These are Russian croquettes. They may
be made, Of meat, fish, chicken, oysters, etc.,
and are made into cork-shaped croquettes.
These are rolled into strips Of boiled bacon,
sliced as thin as possible; they are then
dipped in butter and fried in hot fat and
served with fried parsley, caper any suit
able sauce to accompany the material form
ing the basis of the kromeskies.
How to Dip In Egg and Crumbs.
Your crumbs should be fine even in color
not crust and crumb ground together, dry
and free from Jumps caused by dripping the
egg from previous dipping when all the
crumbs were not used. Heap the crumbs on
molding board, then 1atten down evenly,
leaving a broad, level surface on which to
roll the rissoles, eroquettes or whatever is
to be crumbed. Break an egg into small
soup plate or sauce dish beat it slightly and
add tablespoonful or more of water slightly
warm but not hot, and beat just enough to
mix the yOlk and white smooth but not to
make it light, or air cells will prove trouble
some when articles go into the hot fat. Use
tablespoonful or, teaspoonfu1 and a spatula
or broad -bladed, flexible knife to form the
articles and din iihprn Take q nj
OF the mixture and form into a ball with
spoon and knife; then roll in the crumbs
until we'll covered, then on the board to shape
into correct FORM In this way you need not
handle the article Or use -four in shaping
them. Lift them on the knife and slide into
the beaten egg and with the spoon dip the
egg over them until every part is covered:
then roll again in bread crumbs, cover the
whole surface lightly. Lay them carefully
on one side of the board until all are done
and do not commence frying until all are
covered.
Lobster RissoIes.
Chop the meat of a boiled lobster up fine:
season with pepper, salt and a little mace.
IT the lobster has coral, pound 1T together
with the yollks Of two hard-boiled eggs until
smooth. Add to the other ingredients. To
two cups Of the lobster meat take a cup Of
milk. two tablespoonful of butter and two
of -four. Make into rather thick paste add
two eggs to- each cup Of paste and mix this
Into the meat 1t should be just stiff enough
to make into rolls. Cover with egg and
crumbs and fry in deep, hot fat. These may
be eaten hot or cold If hot, serve with fried
parsley; il cold, fresh parsley
