Rice Flour and Bread.

Although rice -four has been made
in Germany and Holland for years,
and consumed in large quantities. il
is only within the last few months that
American rice millers have seriously
taken up the manufacture of this pro-
duct.
Now, however, a number OF the mills
in Louisiana and Texas have been
equipped with machinery for Touring
rice, and the industry promises to be-
come an important one.
Il has been supposed that while rice
-four would make excellent pancakes,
mullins, gems, ETC., it was not suitable
for bread making. This is not the
case, though, as Mrs. S. A. Knapp.
wife Of President Knapp Of the Rice AS
ISOLATION of America, has discovered
process by which excellent risen
bread can be made from rice -four. At
the recent annual meeting of the Rice
Association of America Mrs. Knapp
exhibited several samples of her rice
-four bread and gave an interesting
talk on the subject OF rice -four in
bread-making.
Among the mills that are now
equipped for making rice -four are the
Peoples Independent Mill, Crowley,
La; Eureka Mill, Estherwood, La;
Abbeville Mill, Abbeville, La; Guey-
dan Mill, Gueydan, La, and Donald

Since Mrs. Chadwick is in jail.

For Bryan holds his peace
And no one knows where Parker's at

The present time is bleak and chill,
For even Vardaman is still.

And Lawson silent-oh,
The flame of joy has been snuffcd out

INcITINe THE PEOPLE.

81 ran across some funny things in
Spain when 1 made the tour of that
country last year" said the tourist
but perhaps the climax occurred in q
little town about so miles from Ma
drid
81 had been careful not to touch on
the late war but in this instance 1 was
driven into it. 1 was not feeling well
and was lying up for three or four days
at an inn and the mayor of the village
felt it his duty to call on me. 1 ordred
wine and set myself out to show him
that 1 appreciated the honor, and 1 was
carefully steering clear of the war
when he patronizingly asked:
"'Well, how do you Americans like
living under Spanish ruler
"What do you mean" 1 naturally
replied
""Why, since our conquest of you
we have been your rulers of course
81 at first thought the old chap was
funning, but I soon found out that he
was very much in earnest. You may
not believe it, but he was firmly con-
WINGED that Dewey and all his fleet
were captured at Manila; that Cervera
gained the vicory in Santiago; that
New York, Boston and Philadelphia
early fell into the hands of the Span
iards. and that we were licked out of
our boots and were now only depend
ency.
st turned to and found him the facts
in the case, and he called in three or
four leading citizens and 1 told my
story What do you think happened?
l was arrested forthwith on charge OF
inciting the people and the only ad-
vocate in the village refused to take a
ra+ajper for nv case [ was hauled in
TO court, which was presided over by
