FRESH TOMATO SALAD.

Fresh tomatoes may be had all the
season, and sweetbread or nut salad is
exceedingly fine served in them. Select
small, firm tomatoes of equal size, peel
them and cut slice from the stem end,
remove the seeds and fill the tomato
with the prepared salad letting it come
above the tomato. Cover with mayor
naise dressing and place each tomato on
a lettuce leaf. Hard boiled eggs cut into
small pieces and the white hearts of
lettuce shredded and mixed with a
mayonnaise dressing, is another delicious
filling for tomatoes.

the $50 certificate issued by the Peo-

was passed by Thompson is the
counterpart of several $40 bills for

They are said to be some of the

Late developments regarding the
bogus $40 certificate passed by Fred
Thompson on Michael Dolan of the
Office saloon show conclusively that
there is an organized gang in this city
to circulate bogus money.
The attention of the department
was first called to the large number
of bad SO gold pieces in circulation.
The officers Of the law pressed the
gang so closely they gave up the
work until the matter had time to
blow over.
The counterfeiters appear to have
changed their tactics and have been
for the last few days circulating Wild
cat money which Is much an offense
as counterfeiting. The department
has In its possession some of the bills
lately circulated.
They are apparently well printed.
but the quality of the paper is cheap
compared with that used nowadays.
These bad bills range from 81 to $40
In various denominations. Several
places around town have accepted
them.

BALTIMORE, Nd. Jan. 15.-The
final closing today of the historic old

epoch in the career of the Jesuits,

the affairs of Maryland since the

1t is said, that the south has ceased

are procured and that the eastern

more helpful to the society in this
way than in the past.

SUGAR REDUCED.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.-It Is
probable that an amendment to the
Cuban reciprocity treaty will be
recommended providing that the re-
duction of 20 per cent in the tariff on
Cuban sugar shall not be further re-
duced by any preferential rate given
to another country.
