Nuns Work.

The blind nuns work is always good
and the filet mesh introduced into en-

to hold its vogue for more than this
year. Conservative styles are always
for the woman who wears her gowns
more than one season, unless she has
the foresight to read the signs of the
times and chooses the new thing while
1t is in its first stage. Even then she
needs discrimination to know whether
an innovation is likely to hold on for
a reasonable time.

FOR JELLIED CHICKEN SOUP.
One of the Best Of the Many Hot
Weather Dishes.


Clean and dress large fowl. It
should weigh from four to five pounds
when cleaned. Sever each joint from
the rest and cut the breast into four
pieces. Crack a knuckle of veal from
which most of the meat has been strip
ped (Veal is especially useful in
making jellied soups because it con-
tains more, gelatinous matter.) Put
the pieces of fowl and the veal bone
into a pot; add two teaspoonfuls of
onion juice and three stalks of celery
cut into inch lengths, and cover with
a gallon of cold water.
Cover closely and set where 1t will
not boil under an hour, yet will heat
steadily. Cook slowly for four hours,
or until the flesh of the fowl slips
from the bones. The toughest meat
may be made tender by slow and pro-
longed cooking. The liquid should be
reduced to two quarts.
Set the pot away, covered tightly,
until the contents are a cold Jelly.
Heat to boil to loosen the jelly from
the bones, and strain Clear with a
cracked egg shell and the white of
an egg as with beef bouillon.

THE HOT WEATHER LUNCHES.
Cold Meats, Fruits and Vegetables APP
propriate Now.

The knowing housewife keeps her
refrigerator full of fresh fruit, lettuce,
cress and always a big bowl of mayon-
naise. Where only a small remnant
of yesterdays roast is left mayonnaise
goes well with it; and with cold fish,
or merely spread on bread, with
crisp lettuce leaf for luncheon, with
glass of iced tea or, better still, fresh
milk.
Jellied soups may be kept two days,
all the cold vegetables, as salads with
French dressing, buttered toast and
perhaps dish of berries or junket-
who could ask more delicious and
wholesome hot-weather luncheon?
Heavy roasts, fried meats, the ever
lasting potato, cooked beans, are all
too heat-producing for hot weather.
Breakfast bacon, eggs in the many
possible forms of serving, cream
cheeses. stewed fruits, may replace
those foods that are to be provided
for cold weather.

REMOVES ANDREWS
BROWARD FIRES CHAIRMAN OF
 COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Charges of Padding PayrolIs and Mal- feasance fin Ohice the Cause of Discharge Order by Flor
 ida's Governor.

Pensacola, Tia. May 4.-tSpecial. J. Chairman James M. Andrews of the Board of County Commissioners, of this county, has been removed from office by Governor Broward.
 This information reached here this morning from Tallahassee. and also that the Senate in executive session had sustained by a unanimous vote the ac- ton of the Governor in removing the official The charges against Chairman Andrews are forgery. uttering forged paper and malfeasanee in office. It is alleged that as commissioner from dis trict No. 3, where many men have been employed during the past year in build ing a new hard road. that he has padded the pay rolls and presented them to the commissioners for approv- persons and others who had never been in the employ of the county appeared upon these pay rolls as being em- 'ployed on this road work.
 Warrants were issued at the end of each month according to these pay rolls and were received by the commits sioner. who it is charged forged the name of parties in whose favor they had been drawn and then endorsed them in order to obtain the money. While the investigation of the accounts showed many warrants drawn where the name of the commissioner appear ed as endorsee the investigation has not yet been concluded as the county solicitor proposes to go to the bottom of the affair. Andrews is under ar- rest upon one charge. but Solicitor Loftin has stated that he has sufis cient evidence to place at least seven additional charges against him.
 The case has excited much interest here. and as the GOVarnOr has raynauad the commissioner from office this in- terest has been increased. The trial of Andrews will occur within a few weeks.

WHITE HOME SOLD.
Dr. Whitfield Buys Magnificent Resi-

Uniontown, May Especial )-Dr. IS. T. Whitfield bought yesterday from J. H. White his lovely home for $7,500 and sold the Mtezger house to MT. Abe Rencher, who will move his family from the country. MT. White will move soon to Birmingham.
 The continuous wet weather has been very disastrous to the farmers as many of them lost two plantings of cotton seed and are now kept from planting the third time. The suply of seed ip the country was almost exhausted and in consequence many of the farmers ! have planted the most inferior seed, very often seed that were reJectd by the oil mills.
 This will necessarily result in great deterioration of the cotton, even it they get good stands. As high as & dollar per bushel was paid for inferior seed.
 Rev. R. R. Jones' the great revival ist, came here yesterday and under spe- cial dispensation last night received all the degrees in the Knights of Pythias.

ENTRIES FOR RACES

Humber of Best Harness Horses or the American Turf Will Be Seen

Selma, May 4.
 The program for the race matinee which will be held at the Selma Driv- ing Park next Tuesday afternoon VIII be an interesting one and the lovers of good harness racing will have an opportunity ito witness some splendid snort, There will be two events upon the program for the afternoon and in which some of the best horses at the track have been entered.
 The proceeds derived from the gate receipts will be devoted to charity and for this reason alone 1t is expected that there will be a large attendance. If the weather is fair the track prom ises to be fast and some good time will he made by the entries in the two events.
 The entries in the first race, Class 4, and their drivers are as follows:
 Miss Adbell or Hidalgo, Mcdonald.
 Ward. Renick
 Swift B.. or Narveletta, Avery.
 Pearl Hal, Abeel.
 Second Race-C1ass B:
 Blue Ribbon, Renick.
 Codero, Avery.
 Bell Bird. Mcdonald. s
 Sarah Smith. Abeel. 4
 Lady Sarah, Thompson.
 The horses in the first race comprises some of the finest horses which have 
 Grand Circuit Ward probably being the only entry in this race who has not been over the Grand Circuit. Miss Adbell Is the winner of the Kentucky Futurity at Lexington in the fall of 1905. In this race alone this little mare won for her owner purse of $21,000, and has a record of 2:09 1-2, and is valued at s12.600. Hidalgo, who will probably go, Is one of the most promising young ones in the Mcdonald stable and on trial at the track this spring has stepped mile in 2;06. and is today worth not less than $6,500.
 Swift B.. or Narveletta is the third entry and both are from the Mcdonald stable. Swift B. has a record of 2:12 and is valued at s6,000 and Narveletta has a record of 2:24 1-2 and is valued at 5000. Pearl Hal and Ward have no records but are very promising and are valued at about $5.000 each, So from the valuation of the horses ent- cred for the first race it will be seen that there will be $44100 of horse flesh in the first race of the afternoon Ward is local horse and was raised by MT. w. c. Ward of this city, who afterwards sold him to Mir. Bez Rem ick.'asesa~'a
 The second race of the afternoon promises to be as interesting as will the first one Probably the most val uable horse in this race is Codero, from the Mcdonald stable. codero is with out a mark but on a trial heat this spring he has made a mile in 2:l3 and was not doing his best at the time. He Is valued at $5,000.
