WABASH STRIKE CASE.
Amdavits Finished and the Argu-

AHidavits Finished and the Argu-
ments Have Begun.
st. Louis, Mo-, March 1S.-Affidavits
were finished and arguments COM
menced late this afternoon in the Wa
bash injunction suit. Col. Wells H.
Blodgett, counsel for the railroad, was
the first to address the court, and after
he had spoken for an hour, an adjourn
ment was taken until tomorrow morn
ing. In opening his argument Col.
Blodgett declared:
"Our contention is that the employees
of the Wabash road are not dissatis-
fled, that no alleged grievances orig
mated with them. but with the de-
PENDANTS in this case"
Col. Blodgett read numerous extracts
from the record which, he asserted,
showed that the two organizations,
working together, demanded recogni-
ton and threatened trouble in case it
should be denied.
1T is alleged in the bill of complaint y
he said. that in order to compel the
conspired to make the employees break
the contracts between the company
and the employees. 1t is not necessary
to discuss that at the present time, as
among the numerous affidavits which
have been presented to the court is
one from Supt. Mayer of the Wabash
road, giving the names of many men
with whom he has formed contracts"

beast in such a way as to effect the
greatest possible waste. A dish in
vented by Paris chef in honor of
dinner given to an actress by some
of her admirers consisted of the most
delicate portions of thirty geese, ten
turkeys, and some woodcocks, prepar-
ed in sauce, obtained by stewing
the tender meat of four sirlions of
beef and leaving only the turkey ele-
ment to be served up with truffies. The
cost of the course was eS0-not be-
cause of what it consisted, but be-
cause of all that was wasted in it's
preparation.
1t is on the cards that truffies will
soon be as questionable as onions,
since they can almost always be OBJ
tanned for a guinea a pound, and no
chef has yet discovered any part of
them so much better than the rest to
excuse wasting half and doubling the
price, though chefs nearly always
have waste" of any kind to do with
as they will.
Epicures of twenty years ago used
to relish a nice woodcock, snipe. or
capon, but the modern epicure would
not deign to eat more than the most
delicate portion of those birds, and
thus, while they are rarer than ever,
more are required to make dish, and
so the cost leaps up. There is a small
and infinitely delicate species of the
sturgeon called the sterlet, which was
very much favored few years ago.
Now, however. the higher epicures will
only touch its roe as caviar. at E2 a
time.

salary, even If he has reached the
aff1uence of G120 a year.
The dish consists Of the fat legs of
four small birds, rare and expensive,
no bigger than juvenile pigeons, in
closed in a quail, which is placed in
capon. A goose, the latest and
tenderest obtainable. and a fine tur-
key also play important parts in the
preparation of this dish. but the four
small legs from the inside of the quail
alone are served up, the other birds
being employed to add their flavor to
that of the four legs. in which duty
they are assisted by liberal basting
with rare wines.
This dish is said to be sufficiently
delicious to soften the heart of the
most callOus epicure, of course, the
greatest thing in its favor is it's pro-
hibitiVe cost. Personally, we are in
clined TO envy the bugling-eyed pug
which doubtless devours the incidental
and "spoilt" capon, though we blush
for our vulgar taste.
Peacock's tongues form the basis of
another fashionable dish, and. though
they are sufficiently expensive for most
people it is really the things added to
them and their treatment which make
the dish so costly. 1t takes dozen
peacock's tongues to make a dish large
enough to be clearly visible to the
naked eye, and such a dish would add
anything from G3 to 27 to a. dinner
bill, according to what other delicacies
were employed in creating" the dish.
Turtle-fin soup is yet another choice
course calculated to allure a man into
the bankruptcy courts, though its cost
is comparative trifling enough to
cover the bottom of a soup plate being
obtainable in many hotels for a mere
bagatelle of e., unless 1t has been
elaborated, as il often is. when it oc-
casionally runs to ga per head on the
bill. Birds nest soup is not yet really
appreciated by Westerners, despite the
fact that ii is even dearer than tur-
tie.

They heard a noise about the front

that someone was walking by. In
stantly there was a flash, followed by
the report of gun. and it was found
that the elder Jordan had been shot.
He was sitting with his hands fold
ed across his lap, and the bullets from
the Would-be aSsassin's gun struck
both of his bands. A finger on each
hand was broken by the buckshot that

Mr.. Baldwin, who recently made a

LIBERALS GOT THE SEAT.

sentative Party.
London, March 1S.-The Conserva-
tives have suffered a crushing reverse
in the Rye division of Sussex, where
an election was held yesterday for a
successor to A. NJ. Brookfold, Conserva-
tive, who has been appointed British
consul at Montevideo. The result was
the return of C. F. Hutchinson. Lib
eral by a majority of 534 over Edward
Boyle, Conservative. Mr.. Hutchinson
who appealed to the electors as a critic
of the governments whole policy, OBJ
tanned over 1000 more votes than he
did in 1900, when he opposed Mr.. Brook
field, while the Conservative vote fell
off about 1000.
The result of the election at the Rye
has caused great satisfaction to the
members of the opposition in Parlia-
ment, this being the first gain of an
important seat since the Liberals took
up definite attitude in the army con-
troversy. There was much talk in the
lobby of the House of Commons to-
day about the moral effect" this and
the Woolwich reverse would have on
the government. 1t is safe, however
to say that the situation, so far as the
government programme is concerned
will not be changed.

New York, March 1s.-The elephant
lingo, said to have been larger than
Jumbo, died at sea, on the steamer
Georgia, which arrived to-day from
Liverpool.
The animals death occurred March
IL and the huge body was buried at
sea. An animal show bought lingo in
London. The elephant had not trav-
eled since infancy and from the time
of sailing from Liverpool it fretted and
pinned away. lingo was % years old,
IL feet high, weighed six tons. and
was valued at $4,000.
For sixty hours preceding its death,
the mammoth beast trumpeted without
cessation and twice knocked down its
keeper, Thomas Lawrence, who at
tempted to pacify it. The cries of the
elephant aroused the leopards and
tigers, which were on the ship, and
they, too, joined in the cry. which for
three days kept the crew of the Geor-
gle on its guard.
AS each day passed lingo seemed to
grow weaker, and he squirmed in his
narrow cage in an effort to get out.
He was securely chained to the cage
in such a position in the aft hatchway
that escape was impossible.
On the fifth day out the animals
condition became such that Lawrence
gave him whisky and kept him under
the influence of liquor for almost three
days. 1t was then that lingo became
even more savage than ever and began
the trumpeting.

the morning of the 18th, when sud

From Tit Bits
A famous chef has declared that the
best dinner any man can desire, ex-
elusive of wines, can be served UP for
f2 a head. But the modern tendency
of wealthy people to provide extraor-
binary dinners for their friends is to-
ward gross extravaganza rather than
taste, and the chef who invents a dish
really too costly to be eaten takes a
higher place than another who con-
cocts an inexpensive dish. To such
extremes has the desire to be extra
vagantly epicurean gone that 1t is now
possible to order a dinner every mouth
full of which would cost more than
the majority of people spend in sup
porting themselves and families for
fortnight.
A certain London restaurant can of

dishes obtainable. 1t is, of course, the
invention of a famous chef, and has
added lustre to his name. But the

to order. it for it will not provide him
with more than sufficient to whet his
appetite, and will cost him six weeks

AGAINST CONGREGATIONS

ing the debate on the law refusing the
authorization TO make religious congre-
cations required under the law of as

the report of the commission against
the authorization by a small ajority
The announcement that Premier
Combes would speak caused every seat
on the floor and in the galleries to be
occupied. The premier argued that the
suppression of the congregations was
not a suppression of the liberty of
teaching. The state had the right to
regulate public instruction, to look into
its character, and forbid the teaching
of doctrines contrary to Republican
principles.
This was what the state was doing.
Instead of love. fraternity and unity
among the people. the teaching by the
congregations brought forth hatred and
alienated the people from the Republic.
1t was time to take measures to end
this propaganda The congregations
were doing all in their power to de-
stroy the Republican doctrine. and to
show any weakness towards them
would be objectionable. The country
had encouraged the governments pol
icy in all the recent elections which re-
suited in favor of a foreign policy.
After a brief reply by NJ. Ribot, the
Chamber voted the adoption of the COM
mittee's report by 800 votes to ISL. This
vote implied that the Chamber refused
to discuss the articles of the report.
but adopted the conclusion of the re-
port in favor of rejecting applications
for authorization for all teaching con-
gregations.
The announcement of the result of
the ballot was received with shouts of
Long Live the Republic and Down

Der then voted that Premier Combes'
speech should be printed and posted
