To cook carrots quickly add a small

Bakers have q curious way Of tell.
ing Just what the temperature Of the
oven IS" said a baker who has been In
the business for more than q quarter
Of a century. land they can tell. too,
with almost marvellous accuracy. You
take a man who is an expert In the
business. and he can tell what the tenn
p%erature Of the oven is by simply
touching the handle of the oven door.
In nine cases out of ten he will not
miss IL TO the fraction of a degree.
Bakers have other ways. of course, of
testing the heat of the oven. For in
stance, when baking bread they some
times throw a piece of white paper in
to the oven, and if it turns brown the
ven is at the proper temperature, or.
when baking other things. they will
throw a little cornmeal -four into the
over in order to test the heat. But
the bakers fingers are the hest gauge,
and when you come TO think of the diff
ferent temperatures required In bak-
ing different things II is no small
achievement to even approximate the
heat of the yer by touching the han
die of the oven door.
Bakers figure that during the rising
time of a loaf of bread. after il has
been placed in the oven. ii ought to be
In a temperature of 10 degrees F. Dur
Ing the baking process, In order to cool
the starch. expand the carbonic acid
gas. air and steam and drive off the al
cohol. the inside Of the loaf must reg
lister at least 300 degrees. In baking
rolls, buns, scenes. tea biscuits. drop
cakes, fancy cakes. New York cakes,
mullins. puff cakes and things of that
sort the over must show q heat of $50
degrees or higher. When the oven is

such as raisin, currant. citron. pound,
bride and so on, may be baked. 1t
requires a still lower temperature TO
bake wedding cakes. kisses, anise drops
ard things in this class. But, what
ever temperature the old baker wants.

A big beaver will bring down n fair
sized sapling-say three inches through
in about two minutes and a large
tree in about an hour. The ability Of
q bea ver TO remain under water for u
long time Is not really so tough a prob
lem as ii looks. When the lake or
pond is frozen w a beaver will come
to the under surface of the ice and ex-
pei his breath so that 1t will form q

contact with the ice and water. Is puri.
fed. and the beaver breathes it again
This operation he can repeat several
times. The otter and muskrat do the
same thing.

river at Morrison street collapsed late
yesterday afternoon, precipitating more

the list of dead will be much larger
when all are accounted for. Many fell
on two small boat houses moored to a
pier of the bridge under the spot where
1t gave way. About twenty-five were
injured either by striking on the boat
houses or by falling timbers. Many peo-
pie fell from the roofs of the boat
houses into the water but dozens OF
picked them up.
Thousands of people had gathered on
the Morrison and Madison street
bridges and along the docks to watch
Clarence Lutz, an armless man, swim
the river which is about three-eighths
of a mile in width. AS Lutz was climb
ing out of the water the crowd rushed
to the southern edge of the bridge in
order to get good view. secuon or
the passenger walk gave way under the
heavy weight and the crowding, strug-
Cling mass of people were carried down
a distance of forty feet.
Some fell on the two boat houses moor
