WEEK OF AWFUL CRIMES.
Twenty-Six Homicides Recorded in
Mississippi.

Mobile, Ala, Oct. 16.-During the
week just closed there have been 26
homicides in Mississippi, which equals
the worst weekly record of the year.
Sunflower county gets the credit for
six of these killings within a period
of two days; Kinds county has three,
one of justifiable nature; Simpson
county has two, and the remainder are
scattered over the state.
Mississippi's criminal record this
year has been horrible to contemplate.
1t exceeds by far any record of pre-
vious years or in the days of recon
struction. In some counties, especial
ly where there is large negro popula-
ton, human life is SO cheap that men
are murdered on public roads and high
ways without fear of the future.

The value of United States exports
to Canada for the fiscal year ended

ed States exported to all other coun-
tries Of North and South America, in
Guiding Cuba and the West Indies, a
total of $126,OOO,OOO. To European
countries, Japan and Australia, Ameri-
can exports were $304,000,000. The

For the same Ieriod the total ex-
ports of Canada produce to the United

HOW CAVIAR is PREPARED.
Nearly All of II Termed Russian IL a
Domestic Article.

Caviar is an edible preparation from
the roe of the sturgeon, a large sea
fish, weighing up to 400 pounds each,
found in the waters Of all temperate or
cold ATTITUDES. The best caviar is pro-
duced in Russia. that termed ~"parnaje'
being manufactured with great par
t~icularity. The commoner kind, after
draining, is packed in large casks and
trampled down therein by b~arefooted
peasant girls.
The caviar used in this country is
branded Russian, but about all of it
is made from the roe of surgeons cap
tured in the Delaware river and other
waters of the north Atlantic coast. The
capture Of sturgeon has so greatly re-
duced the number of the fish that their
roe has advanced in price during the
last fifteen years in this country from
6 cents to so cents per pound.
The National Provisioner explains
that many sturgeon are captured
singly by sweeping netting around
them and rushing them on to the shore,
where the roe is Immediately cut out
while the fish is still alive. OF course,
the operation causes the creatures
death. The roe is then worked through
a sieve to separate the eggs from the
muscles and other tissue of the roe,
when the eggs are put into the pack
ages as hereinbefore described. The
Russian ''parnaje" caviar is all con-
sumed in that country.
One method of serving caviar is to
take two tablespoonfuls Of best olive
oil, one Of best vinegar, some chopped
cabbage, parsley and garlic, mixing all
together thoroughly and adding to the
above proportions just before placing
on the table a half pound of caviar.
