transaction has the approval of all
who are sincerely interested in the
welfare Of the state. On the part of
the State Board of Education il vas

ests of the state and the state only.
whose servant the State Board Of Ed
ucation is.
To make plain the urgent necessity
for action by the Board it is necessary
to take a review of the results of
the operations of the investment by
the State in L. S. 4 per cent bonds
maturing July l, 1907.
These bonds were purchased by the
state at various times and at differ
ent rates as the market ruled at the
time of the investment. The highest
rate paid was 122 rs and the lowest
between 107 and los. From the high
est rate paid there has beer a con-
slant and gradual reduction in the
market price of the bonds. fluctuations
have been in evidence, but the natural
tendency by reason of the near APP
proach to maturity has always been
downward.
As before stated in the Governors
message to the Legislature Of 1901 the
bends were worth in the market 116.
and S6S5.000 in bonds were
worth 800. -. -. 1874. 500 90

arouse the board to a realization of the

Inless realized IN in some manner
within less than four years time.
Being restricted by the Constitution
Of the State to investments in bonds
OF the United States of the Union"
the Board has few opportunities of
relief.
The State of Massachusetts had
bonds outstanding that could be pur-
chased, and a few Southern States
we're in like condition, which, at the
beginning, were the only investments
offered.
The Treasurer of the United States
at a late date made a call inviting

bearing 2 per cent per annum, which
were in the national banks, very de
slrable, but for a purely interest in
vestment, such as the state could only
make, was not to be considered ex-
cept as a last resort.
After having sustained a loss dur
ng the last two years of $41. 100 in
value, and with a further loss of s6S.-
Duo impending at the end of three years
and nine months in case the bonds
should be held, the board came to the
conclusion that it would not only be

How Chop Suey Is Made.
Chop suey IS made Of chicken
breasts, celery, onion, pork, waternuts,
bean sprouts, young bamboo and
mushrooms. Waternuts and young
bamboo are tender vegetables Of deli
cate flavor, and all Chinese grocers
sell them. These various ingredients
are first boiled separately and cut up
the chicken into dice half-inch
square. the vegetables into small
pieces-and afterwards they are fried
with a little peanut oil and with see
VOW. See VOW, the famous sauce, re-
sembles Worcestershire in appearance.
It is imported from China, where it
is made Of Chinese beans, Chinese
peppers and salt prepared in a pecu-
liar manner This sauce is exceeding
ly delicious and appetizing. He who
should import it, advertise it, and put
it on the market in an attractive form
would, undoubtedly, make money. The
sauce costs at the Chinese grocers so
cents a pint.
Geishy main is dish composed of
noodles, see VOW, onions, mushrooms,

the recipes for a few of the simpler
Chinese dishes. Those who desire to
prepare and sample the food Of China
in their own homes, may, with the
help of these recipes, do so.
Chinese restaurants are clean, and
some of them are furnished splendidly
and beautifully, with teakwood stools
and tables inlaid with ivory and moth
er-of-pearl. They usually have en-
frances SO constructed that the pa
tron, to reach the dining-room, may
pass thru the kitchen, the idea being
that the patron should examine the
kitchen-should see how clean it is
before he eats the food that comes out
of it. Chop sticks, as we'll as the GUS
tomary knives and forks, are served
with the food, and the American finds
it interesting to try to learn to eat with
these two little ebony or ivory billets.
The Chiense menu is puzzling. It is
composed of dishes with such names
as mo gu sue XII, chow main, geish Y
main, yock a main, fin ka nau yok,
II chez, 81 u all, up tread main, yang
wall, muy gu guy pan, etc. All these
dishes are agreeable to the American
taste. They range in price from $3.50

CHINESE COOKING
IS A FINE ART
Oriental Chefs Have Methods and Materials All Their Own
Yet They Succeed in Pleasing the Occidental Palate
How Some of Their Famous Dishes Are Made-Vogue of
the Chinese Restaurants .., ..-..... -.

The Chinese range has an odd look
because it's front is protected by a
double wooden casing, with panels
that can be lowered when the cook
wants to rake out ashes Or to put on
coal. The advantage of the wooden
casing is that, warding off the heat,
it allows the cook to stand close to
the fire continually.
The principal cooking utensils are
huge basins of brass or copper. The
chopping block is in constant use, for
all meats and vegetables are chopped
into small pieces before they are
cooked. Otherwise it would not be
possible to eat them with the chop
sticks. One exception must be made
in the case of roast meat. Meats, to
be roasted, are first cut in strips three
inches wide and six inches long, and
afterwards spitted on rods of iron and
hung in the oven. The oven is port
able. 1t is set on the range, a hot
fire is started under it, and over it
dome-shaped cover is placed. Some
roast meats-pigs, chickens, ducks
are rubbed with honey before they en-
ter the oven. This gives them lus-
trous, reddish-brown color.

getting to it. The high river bank on
either side is draped with dense foliage
which presents to the eye masses Of
color, softened and blended by the dis
lance. The river hastens down between
the banks, while the all but invisible mois-
ture rising from it serves to heighten the
atmospheric effects so sought after b.
artists.
I remembered that on the east side of
the river, just north Of the BRIDGE was
the graceful little "Brida! Veil fall; but
it was a delightful surprise to find it this
year grown to be impressively beautiful,
ON account Of the unusual amount Of
water flowing over it. The temptation
was strong to continue my walk way down
the river on the east side, either by the
bicycle path along the edge of the bluff,
or by the less frequented little footpath
over the grassy carpet at the very waters
edge. But the sun was getting low and a
chill was creeping into the air, so de-
ferred that till another day. A walk Of
five or six blocks brought me to the inter-
urban line, where I boarded a car and
rode home. Tired 7 was, but such a good
kind of tired, and so happy. Kinky nerves
were Strengthened out, lungs washed clean
by the pure air, and the whole physical

spiritual being was vltelized and uplifted.

Of interest. Some Of these desserts
have poetical and delicate quality
that should cause them to find favor
at ladies' luncheons. What could be
more tempting to young woman, for
instance, than a dessert made of
chrysanthemums, another made of
violets, third of rose petals, fourth
Of peach blossoms? ~
Each of these flower desserts Is
made in the same way. Take, for in
stance, the chrysanthemum one.
A fresh chrysanthemum is selected,
and it is carefully washed. Then its
petals are plucked off, and a little of
the green leaf is chopped and stirred
into a batter made Of beaten eggs and
flour. Now the petals themselves are
dipped in the batter, and afterwards
they are dropped lightly into pan
Of boiling peanut oil, which browns
them in a moment. They are taken
out of the oil and placed on absorbing
paper, which drains all the grease
from them. They are served warm,
and sprinkled with powdered sugar.
Peanut oil, the only foreign ingred-
lent used in flower desserts, is an ex-
cellent oil for frying. It is made

Geish y main and chop suey are the
dishes that Americans like best. In
each of them chicken, pork, mush-
rooms and celery figure, and over each
of them a very salty, appetizing sauce,
called see VOW, is poured. Bread is
never served in Chinatown; rice takes
it's place-rice steamed instead Of
boiled, light aim ost as whipped cream
"a delicious rice such as only the Chi
nese know how to prepare. Tea is
served with every order; a pot Of tea,
drunk out Of little, handleless cups.
Neither cream nor sugar goes with it,
for the Chinese claim that cream and
sugar spoil the favor Of good tea,
which they knew how to brew long
before the occident was aware that
such beverage existed.
The Chinese kitchen is clean, and
every pot and pan is washed after use,
even tho it is to be used in the max
ing of the same dish again imme-
diately. Thus, if a cook is preparing
an order of chop suey, and another
order for chop suey comes in before
he has finished, he does not begin on
the second order until. having emp
tied the pan Of the first one, he has
scraped and washed it thoroly.

Chinese cooks and Chinese foods are
acquiring great popularity in America.
The manifestations Of this popularity
are: .
First-Upon certain roof gardens in New
York such Chinese dishes as chop suey
geish-y-main are served side by side with
soft-shell crabs and broiled lobster.
Second-There Is hardly an American
city that has not Its Chinese restaurants.
to which persons of every class like to go.
Third-Few Bohemian gatherings are
complete without pail of chop suey,
brought fresh and hot from Chinatown.
Fourth-Many rich families employ Chi
nese cooks-men expert In the best French
and American dishes, and expert also in
the best dishes Of China, which, now and
then, they serve.
1t Is not strange that Chinese food,
In cosmopolitan country like Amer
lea, should be popular, for Chinese
cooking, an art as difficult as French
cooking, has a taste that is as pleas
ant to the occidental as to the oriental
palate, while Chinese cooks and Chi
nese kitchens are as clean as any
white-til dairy.

by the rustic Of dead leaves that some
one was approaching, so I reluctantly
left my chapel with its carpet, its stained
glass, it's music, to the next one who might
discover it. Walking on up the river.
found that all too soon Riverside park
ends and the grounds Of st. Marys hos
pital begins.
Resolving to walk up the river a short
distance, I proceeded along street lined
with quaint cottages, finding it hard to
believe that was still in Minneapolis.
The first cross street leading directly to-
ward the river was narrow and foreign
looking, so that I was not surprised at
it's name, ."Bjornsen street." It proved
to be a most attractive little by-way with
a vista Of river and bridge at it's farther
end, where it was joined by Locust
street, and from here was beautiful
view Of the river in the opposite direc-
ton.
After retracing my steps to Riverside
park once more, I found that had an ex-
cellent appetite and felt that the time
was ripe for lunching. Then I felt rested
enough to undertake the walk from the
park down the river to the Franklin ave-

was alone, but the walk by the rivers
edge is charming If one is with a party.

THE INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.

We hear good deal of talk nowadays
regarding the initiative and the referendum.
In other words they tell us that it is pretty
good thing to let the people have voice in
the making of laws. That sounds good
but how about the home rule amendment
and eight hour law and all these things the
people voted on last fall?
1t does not look as if vox populi amounted
to much does it? There can be no question
regarding the expressed will of the people
on the amendments carried and announced
as carried by the state canvessing board.
In one instance the vote was two to one and
yet we have a legislature haggling and a
supreme court dissenting ana all sorts of
pretexts for overturning this expressed will
of the people.
Democrats and Repu blicans- makes no
difference in the matter of party-are tied
hand and feet to the corporation band wagon
and they cannot get lose. As a matter of
fact they do not want to get lose for it pro-
badly pays them pretty we'll to remain tied.
All this talk about initiative and referendum
seems to be contrary to human nature and
about the only thing to do is to get different
kind of human nature. Even that seems
hard to procure where there is a little
money in sight.
