the district, and his reception was nearly
as enthusiastic as that given to Cover
nor Black, who has been konwn only as
the champion of the peoples cause
throughout the State.
Henry " Condict, who has been a
Republican, spoke enthusiastically on the
condition of affairs in Morris County.
He said
mo county in the State has as much
railroad property. These railroads
should not be asked to pay more than
their share, but justice requires that the
law should provide that they pay their
full share; no more, no less. There are
PA miles of railroad in. Morris County,
and this property is calued at $T,059, ,127,
and as now provided by law, the county
receives in taxes yearly but $6,SS6 I'm
der Mr.. Blacks plan it will receive
S154000.
Rockaway Township has more miles of
main stem, 4o.137, than any other taxing
district in the State, except Newark and
Jersey City. The property is worth
$1,oo0,000, and does not pay cent of
taxes. Under Mr.. Blacks plan, based
upon the present rate, it would net the
township ,s23,371.6s, and reduce the tax
rate of the township by one-half."

D1scoxn9orts In Venice.

Venice is not a desirable place of
residence in summer for the ordinary
mortal. The moisture IN the air, caus-
ed by the steady prevalence of the
siroeco. tukes the starch, so to speak,
out Of mems minds as much as out Of
their collars, and 1t is only the artistic,
the lazy and the unemployed who can
rightly enjoy the summer in Venice.
The colors in air, in sky and sea are
of nature TO provide perpetual de-
light and occupation to the eye and
hand Of the painter, while the abun-
dance and variety Of the fruits to be
had will equally content his mcaner ap-
petite, for fruit in Venice is beautiful
and almost oriental in its quality and
quantity But there are drawbacks
to be set against the lotus eating kind
Of existence, and not the least Of these
is that of hot nights, when sleep is al
most sln unknown quantity and is
driven away by one subtle foe after
another. the mosquito being the ferc-
est and most aggressive.

A HOMFLY DINNER WELL COOKED
BY coRNELIA c. BEDFORD.

IT is wen said that even the homen-
est viands take on holiday touch
when properly cooked and neatly
served and when. above all. a pretty
woman presides over the table. II is
only in the homes of the few that food
can be ordered without regard to its
cost; the majority of housekeepers must
keep expenditures within a certain
sum and make every penny yield its
fun return. For all such we suggest
this dinner, which is savory yet not
unduly expensive:
Vegetable Soup.
Beef Pot Roast. Drowned Potatoes.
Dried Lima beans.
Beet, Pepper and Lettuce Salad.
Cheese Fingers.
Brown Betty. Hard Sauce
Coffee.
The lima beans. like all dried vege-
tables. must be attended to on the day
preceding the dinner. Pick them over
carefully, wash and put TO soak in cold
water. They will swell to about two
and half times their first bulk so that
for the family OF five or six little more
than a cupful will be needed measur-
drain off the water remaining on them.
add sufficient fresh water to cover and
put on the side of the fire where they
viii cook slowly; this will take from
three to four hours, care being given
that they do not boil hard and thus
loose their shape. Only enough water
is needed TO barely cover them. They
should be seasoned an hour or more
before they are to be served and the
liquid remaining on them should be
thickened with flour rubbed to a paste
IN cold water a tablespoonful OF but
ter being added just before taking
them from the fire A variation of this
simple dish is to drain off the water
after cooking (this can be added TO any
soup stock or gravy and replacing it
with a smooth cream, onion or tomato
sauce.
Vegetable soups vary greatly accord
ing as one or another vegetable pre-
dominates. The one here given is some
what unusual. but is held in high favor
among certain friends. Wash. scrape
and cut into tiny dice enough carrots
TO measure one quart. Put into d deep
kettle OF steWpan with a large table
spoonful Of butter, cover and cook very
slowly without coloring for half an
hour; shake and stir occasionally. Add
pinch of sugar, one large sliced on
ion and One-half Of a cupful of finely
chopped celery; cover with water or
any weak stock and simmer until the
vegetables can be rubbed through a
sieve. Add one eupfuI of mashed po-
tato, season highly with salt and pep
per. and return to the fire, adding slow
~ as much more hot water or stock as
is necessary to make it the consistency
of thick cream. Bring il again TO the
boiling point and simmer for five min
utes At any time convenient cut sew
eral thin slices of stale bread into tiny
dice. put into a frying pan containing
a little hot melted butter ad brown
slowly, tossing often thar they may be
of a golden color. These may be re-
heated i'm the open oven at the last min
ute and sent to the table with the
soup.
