to organize for the purpose OF defeating the
reelection Of Auditor OF State b. F. Carroll.

Der OF fire insurance and Also fraternal in
surance men I'm this city have been APP
preached with the proposition that II they
will join in the fight one hundred men wifi
be put in the field to make an aggressive
campaign against Auditor Carroll The
purpose OF defeating him is the fact that he
has resisted their efforts to secure the
repeal of the Blanchard snti-eompact law
and the anti-coinsurance and pro-rating
law. The Blanchard law is the law. that
prevents insurance companies combining
and fixing the rate of premiums 1t is the
antitrust law as applied to fire insurance
companies. The other law that the FIRE
insurance men wish to see defeated is Sec
ton 174s OF the code, which prohibits CO.
insurance. 1t Is a protection TO the public
since IL the law was repealed companies
could attach riders to the policies under
which they would never have to pay the
full face of the policy, while at the same
time they would be receiving a premium
rate that would pay for the full face value.
The fraternals have been approached In the
scheme because OF the hope Of getting the
10000 voters in their membership lined up.
Thus far II has been impossible to find any
Iowa company that has agreed TO go into
the scheme Though a number have been
found to whom the proposition has been
made but by whom II has been turned
down.

Planked Steak,

The only utensil needed for planked
steak is a hard wood plank, oak. ash,
cedar, hickory or cherry, cut in dimen-
sions to fit your oven. If you have no
family heirloom of the kind charred, sea-
soned and rich with the juices of long
usage, you can have one made to order
for a liberal compensation. For the ma
jority of folk the board purchased at the
housefurnishng store for this special pur-
pose suffices. These boards are fitted
out with steel rods or bars to hold the
steak in place and grooves for the con-
servation Of the gravy. Before using heat
the board very hot before the fire or in
the oven, lay the steak on and fasten into
place. Brssh over with olive oil or melted
butter, dust with salt and pepper and lay
the plank in the broiling chamber of
gas stove for at least fifteen minutes.
Some cooks prefer to lightly broil one side
of a steak before fastening to the plank.
II you have an open fireplace, you can
stand the plank lengthwise in front Of 1t,
the bottom resting in a dripping pan to
catch the juices that exude. Basic fire.
quently, and reverse the plank from time
to time. While the steak Is broling press
fresh boiled potatoes through ricer, sea-
son with salt pepper, butter and cream to
make quite soft and creamy. Beat with
fork until very light. Have ready some
caulif1ower, some boiled and dressed spin
ach or any other vegetables preferred.
When the steak Is nearly done. take the
board from the oven, put the well-beaten
potato in pastry bag and force it through
the tube rose fashion at regular intervals
along the edge of the steak on the board.
Between the potato roses make little mounds
of caulifiower suitably seasoned, mounds of
spinach, onions or whatever vegetables you
have elected to serve with the steak. Re-
turn to the bottom OF the oven and allow
them to brown deicately. Garnish with
cress and send the steak to the table on
the plank. setting it on japanned tray or
large platter.

"Coopering."
From the London Mail.


Five Dutchmen, comprising the captain.
mate and three of the crew of the Rotter-
dam vessel Maria stood for several hours
in the dock at Grimsby police court yester-
terday while Capt. Hicks and the chief
officers of the gunboat Argus detailed the
circumstances connected with the capture
of the Maria on September 2S, while
gagged In ''coopering," l. e., supplying liquor
and tobacco surreptitiously to fishermen at
sea.
A Dutch cooper generally makes ar
engagements with friendly spies to locate
the whereabouts of the patrol boat. The
Argus had been signaled as leaving Hull on
the previous day, but instead of going
north, as arranged, Capt Hicks anchored
in the Humber for the night. The Maria
believed that he had gone on. and, flying
her ''coopering'' flag to indicate to outgoing
trawlers her desire to trade, was in full
activity when the Argus suddenly appeared
around Spurn Point. There was no time
for the Dutchman to pull down his flag
sheer off. and Capt. Hicks boarded the
Maria. the captain of which, after bearings
had been taken, had to admit that his YES
sci was within the three-mile limit.
When the Maria was brought to Grimsby
1t was found that she had nineteen pounds
of mixed tobacco, 655 pounds of Cayendssh
in large packages, forty-eight pounds of
Cavendish in small packages. POI pounds
of cigars and nearly two gallons of per-
fumed spirits
The collector of customs said he was
instructed to sue the captain for treble the
value of duty of the tobacco and spirits,
and also to sue for a penalty of &l00
against each remaining member of the
crew.
captain G25, the mate 95 and the crew one
guinea each, said the owners. who were
the real culprits, were adequately punished
by the confiscation of the ship and cargo.

over that city. will illustrate the optimistic
enterprise of it's stricken but by no means
disheartened people. Only the cheerful man
is wanted there. When you ask San
Franciscan how soon the loss of half the

his most likely answer is:

weather. and more beautiful ten years from
now than it was before the fire."
There is peculiar cheerfulness, too,
about the rough. red wood. one-story
shacks. of which 1000, at cost of $3.2O0,-
OOO, have been built since the fire. Spring
ing as they do out of the very ashes of dis
aster, they in truth betoken the courage
and daunltessness of the west.
They are to be found the thickest along
the more important business streets. such
as Market and Mission, some of them side
by side with towering ruins, vast crumbling
walls and towers, which, 1t would seem, the
mildest kind Of an earthquake would send
crashing down upon them Others stand
isolated, surrounded by broad stretches OF
ashes and looking like the shanties Of
miners who have staked out claims in the
desert. Most of these solitary shacks have
been built in districts once occupied by
wooden tenement houses or private dwell
ings which left little behind to tell of their
existence except heaps of cinders. snarls Of
half-buried pipe, a few warped pans and
pots, and an occasional TALL gaunt chimney
rising aloft like giant cactus in the wilder
ness.
Evidence Of Optimism.
Many of the shacks evidence their opti-
mism In the signs which are painted in big,
bold letters upon the fronts. Here are a
few examples:

Hanging Out "To Let" Signs.

With the same zeal and energy with which
builders have put up shacks before the sites
were cleared of debris the owners of most
of the big steel skyscrapers, which were
Quilted but not destroyed by the fire, are
getting them ready for occupancy. 1t is not
the custom to wait until the whole structure
is ready for tenants before hanging out the
''to let" signs. Instead, one floor after an
other is got ready and rented. Along Market
street it is a common sight to see bank
on the ground floor, handsomely furnished
and crowded with brokers, depoStors,
clerks and messengers. while on the next
floor gang of plasterers and GLACIERS are
at work. In the story above the plasterers
and GLACIERS. wreckers are tearing out parti-
tions and carting off debris. while on the
charred. as if the fire had swept through
the building only yesterday.
The rapid and widespread commercial in
vasion of certain residential districts outside
the burnt district and the transformation
of hundreds of dwelling houses into stores
and shops augur well, San Franciscans say,
for the future business development of the
city. 1t shows, they tell you, that the COM
merce of the port even now is expanding
so fast that the shacks cannot go up fast
enough to accommodate it. In Van Ness
avenue many of the old palatial homes have
been bought by storekeepers, who have
built out big wings to the sidewalks and
turned gardens and lawns into aisles and
counters. The largest department store in
San Francisco is composite structure of
this type. On entering you climb flight of
marble stairs, once the front steps of a
dwelling house, and where the mistress Of
the house was wont to meet her guests the
floor walker now asks you what you want
to buy. And, as if by irony OF fate, in
the spacious dining room where many a
sumptuous banquet was served in the olden
time, exploiters of breakfast foods call upon
all who pass
please step up and taste our matchless
delcacies."

Chapeaux for the Winter.

From the Tattler.
Just as the taste for picturesque clothes
has certainly been due greatly to the in
f1uence Of certain women of taste of our
own country-such as the Duchesses of
Portland and Rutland and Lady Chester
field and Lady Windsor and others-so
we are refusing to obey the dictates Of
Paris as to the dressing Of our hair. The
fearful and wonderful heads Stunning over
with curls" like the lady's in the song are
not to be copied in London, and the hair
should in every case be only suited to the
wearer and to the type Of hat most ia
vored. AS to the hats for the winter they
will fortunately be larger and larger;
say fortunately as that invariably means
more becoming to the English face. Great
plumed beavers in lovely colorings will be
the favorites, the once adored black hat
being entirely in the background.
