COOKING OF RICE

A woman of this city who lived in
Persia ten years complained that she
could not cook rice as she did in the
East. saws the New York Evening
Sun. There she was in the habit of
cooking the rice about one-third
draining it. putting a generous amount
of butter into the kettle and over It
the partly cooked rice, covering the
kettle and standing 1t on the back OF
the stove. where It was left until the
rice had steamed tender. BY the time
this was accomplished the rice would
have fiuffed up and filled the kettle
When the rice was turned out of the
kettle it was a light snowy mass. with
the butter in the bottom of the ket-
tie poured over it and trickling
through it. In this country the rice
will not puff up at all as it did there.
A man who knows something about
rice and heard the complaint de-
clared that the reason the American
rice will not fluff in this way is that
It is all polished before il is brought
to the CITY and that the rice she used
in Persia was in the natural condi-
tion. The unpublished rice is to be
had in some Italian groceries and the
experiment is worth trying. Persons
who have used the natural rice say
that It is much lighter and dryer after
cooking than the ordinary rice brought
to this market, and more nutritious
as the artificial treatment that the
rice brought here receives removes the
glutinous coating that lies next the
outside of the kernel. This may OK
plain why Orientals are able to thrive
so we'll on their own native kinds
while we regard rice as an accessory
rather than a substantial.

SCALPERS RECEIVE BLOW.
Supreme Court Rules They May BE
EnJOined fn Equity Court.

Ticket-scalping received q knockout
blow in the Supreme Court yesterday,
when il decided that dealing in non
transferable railroad tickets was a
wrongful act, and that an injunction
against those engaged in the business
could be issued by a court Of equity.
The use OF such tickets by a third party.
where they were sold at reduced rates,
the court added. constituted a preference
prohibited by the new rate law. and was,
therefore. illegal. The conditions as to
nontransfer OF such tickets, II was held
was binding on any one who acquired
them.
The business also fell within a former
decision of the court. in which il was
held that ''an actionable wrong committed
by one who maliciously interfered I'm a
contract between two parties and in
duced one Of them 10 break that contract
to the injury OF the other" was entitled
10 relief in court OF equity. The wan
ton disregard Of the rights Of the rail-
road, the court said. clearly constituted
malice on the part of the scalpers.
