Long Cooking.

OF fresh foods the elephants foot
needs cooking the longest time, as it
does not acquire it's proper tenderness
and succulence till it has been baked
for about thirty-six hours. Next comes
tripe, which requires from ten to if
teen hours of boiling before it becomes
thoroughly digestible. Next come
hams Of good size, which require from
six to seven hours. Of roast meats, q
haunch of venison takes longer than
any other joint-about three and half
hours. Of buildings, the Christmas
pudding comes easily first, as it is boil
ed over and over again. Sometimes it
is kept for months or years and under
goes several boilings. The average time
is from six to eight hours. The veg
etable which takes the longest time to
cook is the onion.-London Mail.

STATE OF MAINE
GOES REPUBLICAN
Democratic Vote Increases 81 Per
Cent. Over 1900, That of Re-
publicans 1 5 Per Cent.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 13.-Maine gave
a Republican plurality in the state
election estimated at 10000, as indi-
Gated by returns received from $50
out of 500 cities, towns and planta-
tons. These returns give William II.
Cobb of Rockland, the Republican can
didate for governor, 71,0S5 and Cyrus
w. Davis of Waterville, the Demo
cratic candidate, 46,162. The same
places in 1900 gave Hill, Republican,
62,676 and Lord, Democrat, 35,0S9.
These returns show a Republican
gain over 1900 of Is per cent. and a
Democratic gain of 81 per cent. ON
which basis the Republican plurality
for governor is estimated at about
10000. In 1900 the Republican plural
ity in the governorship election was
"a, 132. The vote was the largest cast
since 1888.

Two Young Thugs Rob a County Treasur-
er of $4,000, but Overlook $4,000
More in Gold.

Pomeroy, O., Sept. 10.-The boldest
daylight robbery in the history of the
county took place here. Two youth
full strangers entered the county treas
urer's office, covered Treasurer L. j.
Chase with revolvers, and went
through the safe. They secured S14,-
900, locked Chase in the vault and
made their escape. Chase was locked
in nearly three hours before he was
found and released. He was found
by his wife.
A local banker was secured to work
the combination as Chase directed
from the inside. Five thousand dol
lars in gold in the bottom of the safe
was overlooked. No trace of the rob-
bers has been secured although at
tempts were made to trail them with
bloodhounds. The robbery was planned
with great foresight, as it was the last
day of the county fair and but few
people were in town. The county

Animal and Plant Allies.

An interesting instance Of the MAN.
ner in which insects sometimes assist
the growth Of plants is furnished by
the history Of a climbing plant which
grows in the Philippines. At an early
stage in it's career the plant, which.
like other plants, begins to grow from
the ground, sewers it's connection with
the soil and thenceforward lives with
its roots attached to dead bamboo
canes. 1t develops, in addition to other
leaves, certain pitcher shaped leaves,
into the cups Of which it sends a Sec
ond set of roots. A species of small
black ant freQuents the pitchers and
incidentally carries into them minute
fragments of decaying wood and leaf
mold, from which the roots derive q

VIOLENCE AS MEN
QUIT THE YARDS
Mobs Attack Street Cars Carrying
ColOred Non-Union Men to
Their Homes.

Chicago, Sept. 13-The first gener-
al exodus of "strike breakers from the
stock yards began at night. 1t was
accompanied by a series of assaults
upon non-union workers in which sew
eral women were hurt. Twice within
half an hour mobs collected at Root
street and Princeton avenue and at
tackled street cars in which colOred
men from the yards were detected
among the passengers. Stones and 9TH
er missiles were hurled. Riot calls
sent to the stock yards station brought
policemen who were compelled to use
their clubs on the union sympathizers.
Women participated in the trouble.
Eight persons were injured.
More than 1000 of the former strik-
ers at the stock yards gathered in
Packingtown in the morning looking
for work. About 1 100 were given en-
pIoyment and the rest went away
muttering imprecations upon the non
union men who supplanted them dur
ing the long strike. Of the HOO rein
stated, $50 were teumsters.

NON-UNION MEN STICK
It Is Said $1,000 of Them Will Hold the
Jobs They Got During the Chicago
Butchers Strike.

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Fifteen thousand
non-union workers at the stock yards,
undaunted by fear of the returned
strikers, stuck to their places, con-
trary to expectation. Because of this
fact, only 1000 strikers could be taken
back. With the men who were re-
employed Saturday there are now s.
600 of the former strikers at work,
while 10000 still are idle. There is q
report that the packers in few days
will discontinue housing the non-un-
ion men at the yards.
The heads of the packing firms still
declare they will retain in their en-
ploy all the non-union men who de-
sire to stay, but the adjustment of
the commissary department would al
most inevitably thin out the ranks. If
they were forced to find lodgings out
side the yards it is believed thousands
would quit.

The NameIess Girls of Korea.

Girls in Korea have no names, or
what would be considered names in
the western world. There are no
Marys or Mabels or Ruths. The lit
tie ones are given a pet name at their
birth, and this they bear until they
are ten years old, after which time it
is no longer used.
After her tenth birthday the young
woman is known as Mr. Kim's daugh-
ter or Mr.. Kim's girl baby" The
latter title is considered the more
honorable If there are several daugh-
tiers in the family they are distinguish
ed by such words as big" (for the
eldest. second" third" FOURTH
etc.
After marriage they are known by
the husbands name and title. with
the word house" affixed. They may
also be distinguished by the name of
the place from which they came when
marrying, as Mrs. of the house of
Kim, the young lady who came from
Kongjo."

ROOSEVELTS ACCEPTANCE
Points from His Letter, Accepting the
Nomination for Party
leadership.


Leadership.
New York. Sept. 13. President
Roosevelt's letter of acceptance. which
has been given out for publication. is
highly pleasing to the Republican lead
ers. 1t is like all his pronouncements,
straight and strenuous. He is ag-
gressiye from first to last, and at
tacks his political opponents, rather
than defends his party. Among the
notable passages in the letter are the
following:
"A party which, with facile ease,
changes all it's convictions before cleo
ton cannot be trusted to adhere with
tenacity to any principle after election
If on one great issue they
1.-THE Democrats do not mean what
they say. it is hardly safe to trust
them on any other ISSUE"
Free trade and reciprocity are not
compatible. If tariff law
is passed aimed at preventing the
prosperity of some Of our people, it is
as certain as anything can be that
this aim will be achieved only by cut
ting down the prosperity of all our
people"
There is not a policy, foreign or
domestic, which we are now carrying
out, which it would not be disastrous
to reverse or abandon. This
government has been true to the Spir-
it Of the fourteenth amendment in the
Philippines. Can our opponents deny
that here at home the principles of
the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments have been in effect nullifed?
If continued in power we
shall continue our foreign policy and
our handling of the navy on exactly
the same lines in the future as in the
past"
They 1.-THE Democrats have occu-
pied three entirely different positions
Ion the Philippines within fifty days.
Which is the promise they really in
tend to keep? Where there
is no respect there can be no trust.
A policy with so slender a basis of
principle would not stand the strain
of single year of business adversely"
''Since the close of the war with
Spain there has been no substantial
change in the rate of annual eXpendi-
tures.''

FIGHTING AT PORT ARTHUR
Chinese Tell of an Engagement-Rus-

ChefOO. Sept 9.-Chinese who left
Port Arthur Monday have arrived
here. They report that severe fighting
occurred Sept. 3. The Japanese at
tackled certain positions on the east
and west TANKS and the Russians al
lowed them to approach within a short
distance, when they opened Il heavy
fire and compelled the Japanese to re-
treat after three hours fighting. An
incident in the engagement was clash
between Japanese and Russian regi-
ments of cavalry. resulting in the re-
treat of the former.
The Chinese report that the Rus
slams are paying so cents each for un-
exploded shells manufactured for use
during the Chinese-Japanese war. The
persistency Of this report during the
past two weeks entities it to consider
able consideration, as indicating a
shortage of large ammunition at Port

SOFT COPE:

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
