THE CARS ABDICATlON OF POWER

Nicholas II. Autocrat of all the
Russias, absolute wielder of despotic
power oyer the lives and destinies of
of more than 120.000,00O people, Lit
tie White Father as he was affec-
tionately called by some of his sub
Jects, and one of the most opulent
crowned heads of the old world, has
voluntarily resigned his exalted state.
vacated his throne, as it were, tor
saken his pOmp and power, and re-
duced himself to condition lower
than that of some of the other Euro
pean mOnarchs.
This addiction of the Russian DO
tentate, when he could still have held
his inherited power, though dictated
perhaps as stroke of policy and boon
to his distracted country, has in it
something awe-inspirng and sublime.
The mighty prerogatiye which the
car has willingly, and even gladly,
signed away. is the goal, the mag
netic needle, the fell and fatal star,
that has from the foundation of the
world lured men on, caused rivers of
blood to flow and filed all lands with
murders, instructions and final ruin.
Hence the stranSeness of the sight
presented-a man, of his own VOLTA
ton, yielding up the very thing
which Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar
and Napoleon, with all their daring.
with all their vaulting ambition, with
all their warlike spirit and martial
genius, sought to attain and hold for
themselves and sons forever. But
perhaps the possession of so much
power, the satiation of every desire
and appetite, and the awful RESPONSE
bility in the eyes of God and man
which devolyes upon the ruler of a
great people, make its possessor after
all unhappy and eager to lead the
life Of the ordinary human being
And so we may conclude this thought
with the valiant English,King Henry,
who after musing upon the cares

maneuyers in the Senate, little feath-
ers of party prestige to be added to
the Democratic plume.
The despised Williams chose the
other policy. He ranged the House
Democrats up for Cuban reciprocity.
because it promised a reduction of
the tariff, and the Democrats were
pledged to tariff reduction. About
half the Democrats were opposed to
Cuban reciprocity. No matter, Viii
liams drove them into line, and they
supported it.
German observed that the recipro-
city plan proceeded from Roosevelt.so
he opposed it. When it came to
vote he had been so thoroughly de-
serted by his followers that he voted
for it.
Williams supported the President
on the Panama canal issue. German
opposed the canal. He was astonish-
ed to find that the Democrats would
not follow him. The reason was that
the South wanted the canal-as Rep
resentatiye Richardson of Alabama
said, I'VE must have it if we have to
take stolen property''-and Mr.. Cor
mans followers were chiefly from the
South. The legendary German would
have known that. The German of
reality saw only chance to oppose
the President.
These were the only great issues of
the Fifty eighth Congress, and on
both German was outvoted by his fol-
lowers. He could not understand
such an extraordinary situation. He
who had always been a politician of
suavity and whispers lost his temper
and raised his voice when he talked
to his followers and made them angry.
While this was going on in Wash
ington other things were happening
in Maryland. He had promised the
Senatorship to John Walter Smith,
then Governor. When the time came
for election German decided not to
deliver the goods" This, too, was
the politics of 1884 In 1884 it might
have succeeded; in 1904 il elected
Rayner to the Senate, and German
was faced at the same time with re-
volt against his leadership in Wash
ington and a defeat in the Legislature
of his own State.
In 1905 he tried to impose on Mary
land a system which, according to the
independent Democrats of his State,
would have enabled the German ma
chine to decide whether an anti-Gor-
man voter should vote or not, and
thus prepetuate his control. He was
dimly aware, by this time, that
things had changed since 1884: so he
masked the deyice by making it APP
pear that it was a plan to disfranchise
the negroes, a popular scheme in
Maryland.
This would have been clever
strategem in 1884. In 1905 it resulted
in a smash for the Democratic party.
1t had gone into power in 1899 with
every chance to remain in control.
That chance had been fritted away
by the use of the clever strategems of
1884, by the use of Anticipated weap-
ons, German in 1905 was still using
Springfield rifles.
He was once-in 1884. In fact, he
was up to 1895. But times have
changed. The German of legend is
gone.

That's what a prominent

Hamburg Steak Docfo5ed.

Food adulteration, as many Know
has now extended even to Hamburg
steak. Once upon a time the economl-
cal woman could sincerely feel that
she was buying sweet. wholesome meat
AT a small price in this form.
Hamburg steak taken directly from
a GOOD piece Of meat and chopped by
the butcher before ones eyes Is not
especially cheap, and the cheaper va
r,etv found for sale already chopped
is badly adulterated and often unfit To
eat.
If anyone wishes to be really eco
nomical and has the time to spare she
will be wise II she buys low-priced
meat like the round and puts 1t through
her own patented meat chopper at
home. The butcher charges extra.

Ofher Ground Steaks.

There are two other forms of steak
similar to Hamburg and excellent for
change. The first is called Hanoverian
steak. To prepare it, chop piece OF
lean beef-abOut a pound and hall on
the sirloin, II convenient.
Grind it exceedingly fine In meat
grinder. Add a tablespoonful Of salt and
half teaspoonfui Of pepper. Form the
meat into six fat cakes, rub them with
melted butter and broil tour minutes on
each side. Put one ounce Of butter in
frying pan on the stove, add half cup
fuI of finely chopped onion and cook
without browning for six minutes. Then
add four large tomatoes peeled and cut
into small pieces. Season highly with
salt and pepper, using about one-half
teaspoonful OF salt and one-fourth tea
spoonful Of pepper Add also half 4
teasDOOnfuI Of sugar and cook ten min
utes. After arranging the steaks on
platter, pour the sauce over them ana
serve.
The second is a beef Ia tartare Use
only beef OF the finest quality, as this
curious dish IS never cooked. Take any
tender piece Of steak and season every
pound Of il. after mincing 1t fine, with
one tablespoonful Of salt. Divide the
meat equally into four pyramids and
place them or four small tea plates.
Make a hollow in the middle or
egg yolk and garnish with tiny
slices of onion or minced onion and
pieces OF picked beet Skin and bone
Six anchovies4 Divide into two fillets
and roll each fllet up. Place three OF
them on each plate or on top Of a pyra-
mid Serve with bread and butter. This
dish is not seen as often In America as
in Europe. but 1t will make a very good
and nos >TishinG luncheon dish. After the
plates OF meat are served each guest
mixes the egg yolk In the center with
the meat and the garnish OF vegetables,

When a Gaznienf Is Dyed.

a garment to be dyed must first of all
be absolutely clean. Whether it is silk.
wool or cotton it must first of all be
washed with soap and rinsed in clear
water afterward. The dye must be boil
ing and the goods 20 be dyed must re-
main IN boiling liquid for twenty minutes
or half an hour. Chiffon takes dye
beautifully. So do wooden goods. Silk is
harder to do and sometimes only takes
in Spots But still by seeing that you get
Ihe proper dye for each kind of goods
and by following the instructions i'm
plicitly you will often get results far be-
yond your expectations. One OF the
points is to keep the article to be dyed
moving the whole time 1t is in the liquid,
and then the color is sure of reaching
every part. OF course, a small wooden
stick must be used for this purpose to
avoid soillng the hands.

bread, and holding It IN the palm OF the
left hand proceed to spread Il with but

good manners. and If q child is to have
a slice the bread should be cut IN two
and folded over. II a whole slice is TO

another breach OF etiquette. A child

1t should be pulled from the lap and

than a corner being used.
Managing q knife and fork is most i'm

The Washington times., 1905-11-04

Unless parents are extremely particu-
lar, little children rarely have good
table manners. and the youngsters eat
like young animals let loose upon food.
1t is neither pleasant nor agreeable.
and If permitted It will take years to
overcome what was such a short time
in becoming a habit. On the other
hand, when chiIdren are trained into
table etiquette they never forget It. and
this part Of daily social life is pleasanter
in consequence. Eating at best is not
the most attractive performance TO see,
and no effort should be spared to make
it Unobjectionable.
One Of the first things that a child
should be taught is to sit erect at table
even If loahng is permitted at other
times. The reason for It at mealtime
particularly is obvious. when one no
tices the spotted pinafores of children
or coats or waists of adults who do not
pay attention enough to this detail. and
who. IL they have the misfortune to
spin drop from spoon, have it fall
squarely upon themselves. If a particle
drops from the fork OF a person sitting
up properly It will fall TO the plate.
Head Is Bent.
Another trick common, not only to
many children. but even 10 older per
sons. IS to eat with one elbow on the
table. bringing the mouth down TO meet
the food, not raising the arm SUFFICIENT
~ to prevent bending the head. This is
awkward and very bad form. but it is
astonishing how frequently one sees it
done. There are no conditions under
which the head should be stopped for
food; il IS too much like an animal.
The matter OF eating bread and butter
sounds simple, but children are allowed
70 do it il a shOcltingly slovenly man
