Bodies Still Missing.

NORFOLK, VA, January 2s.-The
annual meeting OF the National Hard

to-day in the governors room at the
Virginia Club. About twenty-five mem
bers OF the association, representing all
parts of the country, are In attendance.

presiding over the meeting in THO alb
sence OF President w. H. Ruifc, who
has been detained in getting hero by
the floods In the West. Secretary Il. n
Terry.is present.
While no statement Is given to the
press regarding meeting Of the assoca-
ton, among the business matters for
discussion at the meeting are the car
shortage and clean through bills OF lad
ing. Though the decision OF Judge
Morris, in the United States Court, last
year. unfolding the responsibility OF
common carriers for loss or damages to
shipment, regardless of the clause on a
bill Of ladng disavowing such liability,
did much to clear the situation. Num-
erous complaints of a shifting OF blame
are still heard, and the hardwood men
want to get some OF these questions de-
flnitely settled. AS to the car shortage
action is likely to be taken, though in
dividual members OF the association are
somewhat at sea concerning what should
be done.

pie manufactured their own bread,
they had curious way of making it
palatable.
Strange as it may seem, the bread
they prepared-huge round or
square slabs-was used as a dish on
which the meat was carved, and
bore the name Of "tranchoirs," or
"tailloirs.' The juice of the meat
having penetrated into the bread
impaired a pleasant taste and pre-
vented it from becoming dry.

Everything went well, and in due
time /; lively little chicks rewarded
the old hens patience.
They grew rapidly. but as the
down of their adolescence disap-

customary feathers. but by thick
and glossy fur of various colors.
The owners theory is that kindly
nature. which adapts all her crea-

feathers during he cold storage
period. -
