StaEe Ice Cream,

An amusing break once occurred
IN production of Camille at the old
Walnut Street theater in Philadelphia.
In those days sea island cotton was
stage ice cream, just as molasses and
water was make believe wine sherry
or port, according to the proportion Of
molasses.
+ Armand and Camille were at table,
where they had been discussing such
viands as these, and their dialogue was
making the finest sort of an impression
on the crowded house. Enter a maid
servant with candelabra Of the wab-
bliest sort imag inable The scene was
SO engrossing that the maid was hard
" noticed by the audience, but when
she had set down the candelabra be-
tween the unfortunate Camille and her
lover and one candle toppled over and
set the ice cream in a blaze the nerv-
Gus strain upon the house was broken.
and the entire audience burst into a
roar Of laughter that brought down the
/ curtain. HarDer's Weekly

DEFENSE INTERPOSE
OBJECTION TO POISON

The Saturday afternoon session was
taken up largely with a, fight between
1.-THE attorneys to introduce the poison
evidence The defense objected to- the
evidence which the state was Offering
on the ground that No proper founda-
tion had been laid and it had not been
shown to have any connection with the
defend ant.
| to show later on the connection which
the defendant had with it, and Judge
Weber allowed it to be introduced
with the understanding that it the
state failed to show this connection
the whole testimony would be stricken
out.
/ This was not very satisfactory to the
defense as the attorneys knew that
whether the evidence were stricken out
Il or not the impression would still have
4 been made on the jury, but it had no
i alternative.
Nevertheless there was sharp legal
4 fight all during the afternoon to ex-
Il .clude parts of the evidence and in this

i fighting.

AN INSECT MENU.

and Esteemed by Epicures.
Here is typical insect menu Of
which no one need be afraid to par
take, since every item has been known
and esteemed by insect eaters for gen
erations past. It was served not long
ago, according to Pearson's Weekly,
at the table Of a rich London epicnre,
who is also an enthusiastic advocate
of an insectarian dietary:
Green Caterpillar Soup.
Fried Locust with Wood Louise Sauce.
Curried Cockcha fers.
Wasp Grubs Baked in the Comb.
Stag Beetle Larvae on Toast.
Moths Baked in Batter.
Deviled WireWorms.
Grasshoppers au Gratin.
The green caterpillars that compose
the soup feed entirely upon vegetables,
and mostly upon particular vegetables
most relished by man, such as cab
bage and lettuce.
& In appearance the soup itself is not
unlike clear turtle. Whife its flavor is
delicious.
L The locusts, which constitute the sec
ond course, have, as every one is
aware, been esteemed by gormands
the world over and from the remotest
antiquity. Eat We the locust after his
kind" is the Biblical Injunction, and
we know that John the Baptist is re-
corded as having lived for some con-
siderable time upon '.locusts and wild
honey"
There are of course many ways Of
preparing them. They can be fried aft
er their legs and wings have been
plucked off, which was. as matter Of
fact, the process adopted in this par
ticular instance, or they may be pow
dered and baked into cakes or curried
or boiled, turning red, like Holsters, in
the process.
The wood louise sauce If properly
made with fresh butter, flour, milk,
pepper and salt will be found fully
equal to shrimp, which it much resem-
bles in taste Indeed the wood louise,
although he lives on land, is first cous-
in to that much relished crustacean
Cockchafers, curried or otherwise,
are delicious if selected of servicea-
bic size and plumpness. So, too, are
their grubs when full grown. They
should then be at least two inches in
length and fat in proportion and may
be eaten uncooked, like oysters, OF
stewed in milk.
Perhaps, however, the most tooth
some of all insect delicacies is that
1 which comes forth on our "menu of
the day." wasp grubs baked in the
comb. These grubs have been fed by
their parents on a saccharine fluid
composed Of fruit and vegetable juices
and are simply tiny balls Of sugary
fat possessing flavor as exquisite as
/ it is unique. No one who has once
tasted them will ever again be sur.
/ prised at the preference shown by fish
for this particular grub when used as
q bait.
The stag beetle larYa is Of course
identical with the cossus, which the
old Roman epicures used to fatten fol
their table upon -four and wine. The
sixth course should be served steamins
hot, since there Is no more appetizing
odor than that emanating from {
plump baked moth.
i Deviied WireWorms are eaten in ths
!. form Of paste, spread upon sippets q
i toasts, and taste not unlike anehoviel
when treated In similar fashion.

DR.. o. G. Stricken, whose offices adj
join those Of the accused and who oc.
cupied joint waiting room with him,
in the afternoon gave onl some of the
most damaging testimony which has
yet been offered by the state.
He told Of missing q quantity oil
strychnine from his instrument chest,
setting in the common waiting room al
about the time the poison was received
~ DR.. Gebhard. or little before, and
the conclusion which the prosecution
wishes the jury to dlaW, and which il
will argue with all his power, is that il
could have beer none other than the &c
cused man who took the poison.
