Sardines,are caught in nets, and after
being well washed tie heads are cut
off and the fish are sprinkled lightly
with salt After lying for few hours
they are placed'On grids in rows almost
perpendicular. The frames are then
placed in pans containing boiling olive
oil. The oil is changed as soon as it
becomes too black and dirty for con-
tinuing the cooking process.
AS soon as the fish are considered
sufficiently cooked, they are Withdrawn
from the pans of oil and the gridS are
placed on the tables covered with zinc,
the surface of the table inclining to-
ward grooverin the center. The oil
is thus carried 10 Il vessel prepared to
receive it, Round the table stand the
women whose business it is to pack the
fish closely and uniformly in boxes.
The boxes being full. the fish are COW
cred with fresh oinand the lids are then
soldered down. Thus Theoretically
sealed they are placed in iron baskets
and immersed in boiling water. The
smaller boxes are thus boiled for half
an hour and the larger ones somewhat
longer. in proportion TO size of box.
The fish are then ready for the market.

IN HONOR OF GARFIELD.
Monument to BE Erected Near Where
He Died In Long Branch.


Long Branch, n. J.. is about to honor
the memory of President James A.
Garfield, who died In the F'rancklyn
cottage on Ocean avenue on Sept. 10,
1881, by the erection of a monument.
Several sites have been talked over
by the committee, among them being
the triangle at the entrance to the
Francklyn cottage In Ocean avenue,
says the New York Sun. The ground
is owned by Charles 7. Cook and the
Washington Wilson estate. 1t is laid
out as park, being purchased by Mr..
Cook and the late Mr.. Wilson to pre-
vent unsightly dwellings from being
erected
Old residents distinctly recall the
bringing of President Garfield to Long
Branch. The single track leading
from the track of the New York and
Long Branch railroad to the Franck-
Ign cottage, a distance of a half mile,
was laid in a single night. The first
ties were not on the ground until Z
p. M, and the next morning an engine
was gliding over the tracks. Two thou
sand men were used to construct the
track, which was not torn up until
after the body of Garfield had passed
over the road to Washington. Many Of
track Oliver Byron, the actor, built
hut from the logs. He named 1t the
GARFIELD hut"

THE PARIS OF CHILE.
Luxury of the Homes and the Parks
of Santiago.

of Santiago.
Santiago, which has been partly
wrecked by the recent earthquake in
South America, was the Paris of Chile.
The citizens boosted that there was
nothing In the gay European city which
they could not secure in Santiago, says
the Kansas City Star. They appear to
have plenty of money, their tastes are
refined and their habits tend toward
the luxurious. The homes are beauti-
full, the women dress with extrava-
gance but with good taste, and the
streets of the city are filled with car
riages which compare farorably with
those to be seen in Central park or
upon the boulevards of Paris. The
elite of Santiago have their brass but
toned, silk tiled, ramrodlike coachmen
and footmen the same as do the proud
est of the families of the better known
countries.
Santiago thinks little of business. It
is the capital and the seat of culture of
the country. Valparaiso, four hours
distant by express trains, Is the mart
of Chile and the Santiago residents are
content to allow their neighbors on the
coast to attend to commerce while they
uphold the social glory of the republic.
The Alameda is the principal thor
oughfare of Santiago. 1t is 600 feet
wide and extends the entire length of
the city from Santa Lucia, the old fort,
TO the exposition grounds and botanical
gardens, a distance of four miles.
Down the center is a promenade, four
rows of we'll kept poplar trees adorn
-
ON each side.
This elongated park is dotted with
statues of men famous in Chile Many
of these men were considered tyrants
and We're legally put to death or as
sassinated, but that makes no differ
ence. The Chileans are glad to erect
bronze or marble statues to their
memories in the national park, no mat
ter what they did to them when alive.
1t is somewhat astonishing to note that
the names on great many of these
statues are Irish, such as O'Higgins,
Pratt, Lynch and O'Brian. Nearly all
of the Chilean leaders against Spain in
the early part of the nineteenth century
were Irish adventures.
Peru furnishes many of the beauti-
full things to be seen in Santiago. They
were not sold to the Chileans. nor were
they presented to them. Peru and
Chile have often been at war, and
Peru has always lost. While these
wars were in progress the Chileans
had way of sailing up to Callao and
returning with great boatloads of plum
der. Ornamental street lamps, carved
stone benches, statuary, fountains, pi-
amos, furniture, gold ornaments and
everything which would tend to beau
tify the city and Its homes were taken
from the Peruvians and made use of
In Santiago. Even iron fences and ar
tistic tombstones were taken by the
Chilean marauders. In the courtyard
of the postoffice building are statues of
George Washington and Abraham Lin
coin. They also came from Peru.

The newest dish is gammel ost, says

THE SCENT OF SICKNESS.
Most Diseases, IL Is Chained, Have
Their Characteristic Odors.

Most Diseases, Ii Is Claimed, Have
Their Characteristic OdOrs.
The acutenesS of the sense of smell
is far greater in many of the lower amt
mals-dogs, for eXample-than in man,
and they employ it i'll guiding them 10
their food, i'll warning them of ap-
preaching danger and for other pCr-
poses. The sphere of the susceptibility
to various odors is more uniform and
extended in man, and the sense of
smell is capable of great cultivation.
Like the other special senses. it may
be cultivated by attention and prac-
tice. Experts can discriminate quail
ties of wines, liquors, drugs, etc. Dis
eases have their Characteristic odors.
Persons who have visited many diff
ferent asylums for the insane recog-
niZe the same familiar odor of the in
sane. 1t is not insane asylums alone,
but prisons, jails, warehouses;. armies
in camp. churches. schools and nearly
every household that have characters
tic odors. 1t is when the insane, the
prisoners and the soldiers are aggre-
gated in large groups or battalions
that their chara cteristic odor is recog-
nized. Most diseases have their char
acteristic odOrs, and by the exercise of
the sense of smell they could be util-
lied in different diagnoses.
For example, favus has a mousy
odor. rheumatism has copious sour
smelling, acid sweat. A person af-
ficted with pyaemia has n sweet. nau-
seating breath. The rank. unbeara BILE
odor of pus from the middle ear tells
the tale of the decay of Osseous tissue.
In scurvy the odor is putrid, in chron-
ic peritonitis musky. in scrofula like
stale beer, in intermittent fever like
fresh baked brown bread, in fever am
moniacal, in hysteria like violets or
pineapple. Measles. diphtheria. typhoid
fever, epilepsy, phthisis, etc, have
characteristic odors.-Philadelphia Rec

CINCINNATI, O., May 1.-That A.
T.. Rich, the broker accused Of forging
$4,000 of Wood county bonds, carried
away with him or has transferred into
cash more securities than had been sup
posed, came to light when it was learned

Wood county bonds the Briggs firm was
forced to take up. Briggs says he had

J. e. Bohannon, a business associate
of Rich for a month, in a heated tele-

HOBSON FOR PRESIDENT.
Hero of Merrimac, Winner in Congress
sional Contest, Looks to White
House as His Goal.

NEW YORK, May 1.-The presidency
of the United States is now Hobson' s
choice and his boom has reached New
York. Norman e. Mack of Buffalo,
member of the Democratic national COM
mittee, candidate hunter, platform build
er, rainbow constructor and pace maker,
has been down in Alabama to investigate
the Hobson situation.
Capt. Richmond Pearson Hobson, U.
S. n, retired, recently won in the pri-
mary election in the Sixth congressional
district of Alabama the Democratic nom
ination for Congress, which is equivalent
to election. His friends started to put
him in the race for election to the United
States Senate, to succeed Senator Nor
gain, whose term expires next year. But
enthusiasts changed their minds and de-
cided to make him candidate for the
nomination for president in 1908.

PREMIER WITTE
QUITS STRUGGLE.
Wanted to Retire and Gear May Have
Accepted Resignation AL
ready.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 1.-"Y ester
day the Emperor may have decided to
accept Premier Whites resignation, but
until the fact is published in the Of
fetal Messenger nothing is absolutely
certain. You can say, however, that
Count Witte desires to go. lie is worn
put with the struggle.
Nevertheless, the situation at IsarkO-
SelO charges with unexpected rapldlty.
A few hours may see the official promul-
cation of Count Whites retirement or,
ON the contrary, the dismissal Of Interior
Minister Durnovo." This authoritative
statement was made to the Associated
Press today.
The moment is very critical. For the
present Count Whites enemies at court
certainly have the upper hand and on
the very eve of this battle in Parliament
the Emperor seems to be about to COM
nit the fatuOus blunder of changing his
commander.
Even the Rech, organ of the Constltu-
tional Democrats. while it regards Count
Witte as being an untrustworthy inter
nediary between the crown and the peo-
/ declares that the government has
no one TO take his place and that his
downfall means the disappearance OF the
last chance of the government and peo-
pie to find common ground.
In effect it regards the decision to
throw Count White overheard as a direct
challenge to the people. From this
standpoint the Rech in behalf of its par
ty welcomes the coming fray, saying that
80 long as Count White remained his
5killful ability to shift programmes with
issues could throw confusion into the
ranks Of the opposition. But without
aim the decks are cleared and the tao
.ics of the opposition are plain.
