seemingly quite happy.
I'm about 30 minutes he returned to
the hospital on the jump, wild eyed
and excited rushed up to the steward,
and wanted TO know what would hap
pen If he drank it. The steward gave
him a plying look and asked in. bor-
der Spanish II he 'bebered 1t drank
it,, to which Mr. 'hombre' nodded as
cent and replied in mixed Tagalog and
Spanish that he had downed the whole
bottle; whereupon the steward told
him he'd better purchase his box over
coat and make arrangements with the
town band (Which is even more inn
portant than the corpse on these fes-
tive occasions). But he sent man
for the surgeon, and two lusty soldiers
were called in and proceeded to fill
little brown brother with hot water,
whites of eggs and a few other home
remedies, together with humping,
as Mr. 'Taou' resisted the hot water.
Resistance was short, however, as the
soldiers entered into the spirit of the
occasion with hearty glee, which was
the noise l heard.
81 met the surgeon going in at the
same time, and ne explained matters,
and said he'd question the native him
self and find out the quantity he'd i'm
bibed. Mr. Brown Brother still
maintained he'd downed it all, and fur
Their conversation became impossible,

Lieut.. Arthur Poillon, Of the Four

CONTEMPT FOR UMPIRE.
Kept Count with Pennies and Was
Something Short in His
Count.

The cricket match was proceeding
with unwonted solemnity, which was
due probably to the fact that the UNI

white coats. AS each ball was bowled
they passed a copper from one hand. to
the other and called "over" with dig
nifty worthy Of a test match, relates
London Tit-Bits. When a shower cane
players and umpires retired to the re-
freshment tent. The stoppage was not
a long one, and play had been resumed
some time when the captain of the field
ing side noticed that one of the umpiros
was allowing the bowler at his end only
five balls
Ere, Bills only bowled five balls!"
he protested. you've been dockin him
a ball ever since the rain!"
The umpire looked first at his empty
hand and then at the other containing
five pennies.
"Blowed if l amt, too" he agreed.

Ranefcial Bird

Uncle Sam has been studying hawks.
OF 124 stomachs of marsh hawks which
were examined, 45 per cent. of the
hawks had been feeding on mice, 1S
per cent. on other small mammals, IS
per cent. on reptiles, frogs and insects
and only very low percentage on poul
try and small birds. We do not. find
that this bird is so very destructive to
quail and cartridges after ALL and II
is under this latter supposition that
most sportsmen shoot hawks when
they find opportunity. Uncle Sam con.
cludes that the marsh hawk is benei.
cial bird and that its presence and in
crease should be encouraged in every
possible way.

THE FINE ART OF COOKING
With Little Study of Subject House
wife Can Give Pleasing Va
riety to Bill Of Fare.

Unhappy is the housekeeper who has
fallen into a culinary rut. She does not
always belong to that class who must
count every penny spent upon her table.
More often she is one of those women
whose household allowance is neither
very small nor very large. She is not
forced to devise new dishes from eco
nomical materials, nor can she indulge
in epicurean feasts. Therefore her task
Of planning meals is apt to lack zest for
herself, whereas if she would occasional
ly embark upon astronomical voyage
of adventure, the result would be slim
ulating to her own interest and emf
nently pleasing when the family circle
gathers around the dinner table.
For instance, many women who think
that sweet potatoes boiled or baked are
sufficient variant on the Irish or white
potato, will find that they lend them
selves to many other tasty dishes, nota-
bly, the recipes used by southern house
keepers.
For breakfast dish or entree at din
ner, they make a delicious scallop.
Take potatoes that have been boiled or
steamed until tender, and when cold
slice moderately thin. Put layer about
an inch thick in the bottom of a shall
low pudding dish. Sprinkle with butter
and white sugar, add another layer Of
potatoes, then butter and sugar again.
Continue until the dish is filed. Scatter
butter and sugar over the top and pour
over the potatoes just enough boiling
water to keep them from burning. Cook
half an hour in q moderate oven. or I'M
til the potatoes look transparent and
are delicately Drowned The sugar may
be omitted and a seasoning Of salt and
pepper used. Should the potatoes be-
come dry, haste with melted butter.
Those who do not like too much butter
will prefer this dish If half cupful of
melted butter is mixed with boiling wa
ter, and used to haste the vegetable.
Another way of serving the tuber is
suited to dinner, luncheon or supper.
Cut the cold potatoes into slices little
more than an inch thick. For one quart
melt half a cupful of butter and add to
1t plentiful seasoning of salt and pep
per and two tablespoonfuls of sugar.
Dip the slices in this mixture, lay in
buttered pan and cook about ten minutes
in hot oven. When glossy and brown
they are ready for the charlottesville

AN UNcONQUERED BoER.
Refused to Surrender to the British
and Is Now Raising a
New Army.

Commandant Jan Louw, the BoeF 9th
Ger who refused to lay down his arms
when his fellow countrymen surren'
dered to the British, and who fed tc
the Longberg mountains on the borders
of German West Africa with his band
of burgher fighters, has been success;
fully resisting the combined English
and German forces in South Africa foI
more than two years. In June, 1902
when the Boer army capitulated, Louw
fed with only about 300 men. This was
the nucleus Of the present little army
under him.
Within the first year the 300 men was
increased to 1000, and to-day he is saio
to have a combined force of 5000 sturdy
warriors under bis command. Many
Beers still believe that their country can
be reclaimed and many Of them looh
to Louw as the man who will start the
next rebellion.
There is said to exist an understand
ing among the Beers and their sympa-
thizers that the next uprising will BIZ

Fancies Of the Hour.

For a long neck pretty collar may
be made by gathering an inchwide lace
upon a very narrow band of white
Swiss. On the other side of the band
a frill of narrower lace is sewn, and
the Swiss band is then covered by a
fancy beading, through which is run a
band of black velvet ribbon.
This collar may have cuffs to match
and if it has, is all the prettier. There
are thausand and one ways Of max
ing these attractive neck fnishings,
and no limit to the materials which
may be used, with the only proviso
that they may be washable.

EPIDEMIcs OF HISTORY.
Some Terrible Visitations That Caused
the Death Of Millions of
People.

The decrease in the death rate oil
great cities during the last few years
can only be appreciated by comparison
with similar statistics in the past, says
the New York Herald. In the twelfth
century not less than Is epidemics OF
diseases and many famines carried OIL
the people of England. The thirteenth
century saw 20 plaques and 10 famines
while the fourteenth had black rec
ord of disease. In 134S the BLACK
plague" or "black death" which was
brought into the country from the
east, caused the death Of 100000 per-
sons In London alone, while in Europe
altogether 25,OOOOOO people fell vic
tins to its ravages. In 14S5 the
sweating sickness" appeared in Eng
land, causing great destruction OF hui
man life. 1t reappeared at various in
tervals for a century thereafter. The
last terrible visitation of the plague in
England was in 16641GG6, by which 100,
900 lives were lost in London alone
This epidemic was followed by the great
fire of 1866, which destroyed 10000
houses, including all the most densely
populated portions of the city. The re-
building of London with some regard
to sanitary laws appears to have put
the first check on the epidemic diseases
that had previously devastated Its pop
ulation,

NO HERO.

The fact that football with its bumps
And mud and groans and strife.
And broken legs and collar bones,
Meier came into my life
Has been a lasting wild regret;
l never mussed my clothes
Or lay with nose pressed in the mud
Beneath eleven foes
] saw a man the other day
Make what they call goal"
Though what they left of his poor shape
Could hardly hold his soul;
He spat out teeth the while the cheers
Near deafened with their din,
And blood and mud were running down
And dripping from his chin!
One eye was shut. one ear was torn.
One stocking was pulled down,
His shin was bleeding, he was bruised
From toe to shaggy crown;
His nose was broke, his cheek was sWeIieC
Yet you should hear them cheer!
And next to me dainty miss
Sighed: Isn't he dearl"
I'll never as hero pose,
They never played football
When was young and full Of sanoi
Nay, knew it not at all;
And so l weep! l never knew
It's mud and groans and strife,
And still that have never played
Has doubtless saved my life.

swells the stomach, putting It up against the
