egg. Turn 1t over with a tableknife,
fold the right side of the egg over the
yolk and cook for quarter of a minute
longer. The egg may now be turned
with cake turner and cooked for a
quarter of a minute on the other side.
Slip 1t with a cake turner on to q hot
plate and 1t is ready to serve. If it is
cooked any longer 1t will be overdone.
If the egg is perfectly fresh the yolk
will not break. Eggs that are so stale
that the yolks break and separate
from the whites are not fit for poaching
or frying.
A delicious way to cook fresh eggs
for the table in the spring is with
mushrooms. These are always in mar
ket from the greenhouses If not from
the field. A quarter of pound Of mush-
rooms is enough to serve with twelve
eggs. After peeling and trimming the
mushrooms melt a tablespoonful of
butter in saucepan. Add a teaspoon
ful of salt and a saltspoonful of white
pepper. Then add the mushrooms,
properly cleaned and trimmed, squeez-
ing in two drops of lemon Juice. Cover
the saucepan and let the mushrooms
cook for ten minutes on a slow fire
Add a tablespoonful of wine and sim
mer the mushrooms for about three
minutes longer, or until the liquid has
been reduced one-half. Now add three
tableSpoonSfulS of cream and let the
mushrooms boil up again. Dish the
mushrooms in the center of hot plat
ter without the liquid around them.
Lay twelve poached eggs in a circle
around the mushrooms. Pour the LIQUID
of the mushrooms over them and
around the eggs. This dish is nice

Homage to Mrs. Davis.

In little world of her own Mrs.
Jefferson Davis is living her remaining
days in New York. She has an apart
ment In the old Hotel Gerard in West
Forty-fourth street, and the wife of
the Southern leader lives on the four
teenth floor. Her windows overlook the
surrounding roofs, and only on few
occasions does she ever leave her
rooms. She walks with difficulty, and
does not have to visit, as her friends
pay court to her as if she were a royal
parsonage. Mrs. Davis uses a tall cane,
as people did 100 years ago, and the
head is of tortoise shell and gold. She
has as companion a sweet faced
Southern woman, who is always with
her. On Wednesday afternoons the
famous woman sits In high-backed
chair that came from Beauvoir, the
Davis homestead, and then she receives
the long file of admiring women who
call. These are notable gatherings, and
there are as many Northerners as
women from south of the Mason and
Dixon line.
On these occasions Mrs. Davis wears
stiff black silk, with old lace at her
throat, and despite her years her white
hair is abundant and glistens brilliant
ly in the afternoon light. The COM
panion serves tea, and Mrs. Davis, who
is noted conversationalist, holds the
attention of everyone without an effort.
Her mind is remarkably alert, and she
keeps abreast of the topics of the day.
In her interesting rooms nothing is so
engrossing as the portrait of Miss VIM
ME Davis, her daughter. 1t is an ex-
cellent likeness, and the former Child
of the Confederacy is depicted wearing
the royal robes of the queen of mardi
Gras. The picture is surrounded by
incandescent bulbs, and before this
portrait the mother spends much of
her time gazing and thinking. In the
portrait Miss Davis Is smiling, and Ii

Miss RooseveIt,s Souvenir.

One souvenir of her Mardi Gras trip
which Miss Alice Roosevelt will treas
ure is a horseshoe. 1t is the shoe, or
rather the racing plate of the great
mare L'Etrenne. In the group which
surrounded Miss Roosevelt on one of
her visits to the track of the Crescent
City Jockey club were Rear Admiral
Schley and Gen. Joseph H. Wheeler,
who We'd with one another in gallant
attentions to the daughter of the pres
ident. Miss Roosevelt, like her father,
is fond Of horses, and Admiral Schley
and Gen. Wheeler asked her to express
her preference in the various races.
In one event Miss Roosevelt picked
the imported French mare LEtrenne,
whose recent performances scarcely
justified her selection as a winner. She
had been beaten at the track by horses
supposedly her interiors, and although
she was regarded as fast, she was eYi-
IDENTIFY not in form.
But this fact bore no weight with
either Admiral Schley or Gen. Wheeler,
and they backed Miss Roosevelt's
judgment with chivalric disregard of
the pecuniary outcome. LEtrenne

BOY A BORN DIPLOMAT.
He Refused Gratuity, but Would Sell
His Broken Euas,

A little youngster sat in his express
wagon at the bottom of the hin at
IWenty-third and Prospect yesterday
AFTERNOON. At his feet lay a half doZ-
en- or more of crushed eggs in a torn
paper sack. He was so busy STUDYING
the little ruin that he neither saw
nor heard the man who asked him
about his troubles.
What's the matter, sonny?" asked
the man. Did you drop the eggs out
OF the wagon? Well, 1 wouldn't cry
about it"

and knows whereof she speaks. She
tells how these millionaire houses are
managed, how the head of the house
employs servants to watch other SER
wants, and what an infinite amount of
work and red tape is necessary to keep
in good order an extensive modern es-
tablishment. 49,. -..
Here we read of the head housekeep-
er. who is given full authority by the
wife of the millionaire, who hires and
discharges the servants and acts in
every way as the head of the establish
ment, save that she does not sit at the
head of the table. There is the chef,
the butler, the lady's maid, the valet.
the footman, the coachman, stablemen.
innumerable house servants, all of
whom are pieces of the general ma
chinery which in a well managed house
runs like clockwork. 1t can readily be
seen how necessary is this housekeeper
to the woman who has her social duties
to attend to, and her entertaining to
plan for.
Then there Is the immense amount of
correspondence to look after, for few
who have knowledge of the matter can
guess the number of begging letters
which come daily to the millionaire In
some large houses there are engraved
cards kept for the purpose of replying
to these suppHants, upon which is a
regular formula informing the appli-
cant that his letter has been received
and that the family regrets its inability
to do what is asked. These cards are
sometimes surmounted with crest and
monogram which must help to soothe
the feelings of the writer's of the let
terS.
The answering of invitations and the
sending out of invitations in a house
where the hostess is famous enter
tainer, means much work and thought
Many women in society have their So
cial secretaries who attend to these
things and take charge only of the en-
tertaining. These positions are usually
filled by young women of we'll known
social standing who have lost their
money and are obliged to earn their
living. This is but a small part of the
information given by the writer as to
the details of living of the very rich
but they serve to show that their lives
are not all play and the running Of
their households a matter of consider
able thought and effort. not to mention

IGNORANT OF BANK CHECKS.
German Merchants Do Not Know Uses
of Commercial Paper.

The Berlin correspondent of Com
mercial Intelligence calls attention to
the ant1quated and cumbersome meth
od OF forwarding renittances that OBJ
talns in Germany. A check system
such as has been developed and per-
fected in England is practically un-
used there, payments being usually eff
1ected by means of money orders taken
out at the local postoffice. The Eng
llsh bank exercises the double func-
tton of adjusting accounts and guard
ing wealth, whereas the German bank.
under favorable circumstances, scarcely
does more than the latter.
For the German merchant the Dost-
once Is, in sense. what the clearing
mouse of the English banking system
Is for the British business man: II is
an active partner in the settlement of
diHerenceS between debtor and credi-
tor. Yet even under the German pos
tai system, whereby the amount of q
money order is paid at the residence
OF the payee by a special functionary
called the "geldbrieftrager," the post
office is clearly an intolerably clumsy
agent for liquidating accounts nova
days, and occasionally one hears a Ger
man bemoaning the steam roller prog
ress of his fellow men in the technics
or payment and urging reform.-I,on-

Fresh Edos.

After the 1st of March eggs begin to
become common in spite of all the at
tempts of spectators to get control of
the markets. Fresh eggs are soon with
in the reach of everyone. Omelette and
poached eggs are luxuries which no one
can prevent at this season of the year.
Eggs delicately fried are not especially
common in this country, though coarse,
greasy fried eggs are common enough.
Cooked in lard, as they frequently are
to avoid their turning dark, they have
a flavor that renders them unfit for
food. Fried in butter they may be de-
licious, but they invariably turn dark.
There is only one article that eggs can
be fried in successfully. That is good,
sweet oil. Place in a frying pan on a
hot range two tablespOonsfuls of per-

Atheistie Tendencies in College Girls.

English people are beginning rather
to open their eyes at the ethical culture
tendencies of Newman and Girton
college women. Herbert Burrows, one
OF the leaders of ethical thought in
England, says the brilliantly educated
girls there are manifesting pronounce
ed atheistic tendencies. It's a curious
fact" Mr.. Burrows said, but Oxford
and Cambridge men are for the most
part Il mean those who go in for re-
hg1on at alD extreme ritualists, while
university women generally go to the
other extreme, and approach RATIONAL
ism of one degree or another. 1 sup
pose this is accounted for by the fact
that as yet only reasonably clever
women go to the university, while col
Iege doors have long been open to men
OF poor talents. People can laugh at
Englishwomen all they like, make fun
OF their dressing and their convention
alltles, continued Mr.. Burrows, but
when 1t comes to real intellectual at
ta1nment and progressive thought the
English woman holds second position
to none. In the ethical culture move
ment she Is still in the minority as
compared to men, but 1t is a very fair
minority L am willing to make the
general statement that the English col
lege Woman's outlook on life is distinct
ly broader than thateof her brother who
is educated in the same university"
