Yankele Schleifan wandered almost
disconsolately home from work at the
close of the day, debating his fortunes.
He carried with him the weekly salary
of $3.50 and as he walked he jingled the
two quarters in his pocket The sum
did not appear to him overgreat and his
mind was busy revolving possibilities
for obtaining more ''To be sure, with
small experience it is not to be expected
that wages should be very high, he said
to himself, ''but if that is all am worth

cryptogramic utterance of his mind and
was almost cheerful again.
In his abstraction he almost ran into
another Jewish lad, considerably older
than himself; decidedly better dressed,
if not to say overdressed. The other had
fitted himself out with decided inappro-
prateness with well manufactured cloth

marred by the ineptitude Of figure Of

blackness of hair and "a waving of a

Some time before noon Gen.

Short ly afterward a courier arrived with a dispatch from Gen. Hooker calling Gen. Towards attention to the move ment of the enemy toward our right flank, and instructing him to take measures to resist an attack from that quarter. At once I called up Gen.

Hill's automobile, to- ward Fort Mcdowell and some dis tance above Scottsdale met Commis- sioner Leupp. who was returning from McDowell. From there they crossed by means of the big cable and the commissioner was given a nasty auto mobile ride through the southside ranches in that vicinity The ride did not cover a great distance for MT. Leupp had to be back at the Indian school at o'clock yesterday after noon. however. he had an opportunity for a cursory view of the south side farming section and expressed himself as well pleased with what he saw.
 Speaking of the Colorado river. MT. Code said if is very high. in fact was about at the danger point when they left Yuma. but there seemed to be no special alarm on the part of the en- gineers. While the river is even high CT than it was when the levees were
 
 strengthened that it is believed they can withstand a considerably greater flood than before. X ditch has been dug at the toe of the levee and filled with gravel in such way as to well protect the levce from an underflow. and it is by the underflow that it is generally weakened and finally brok- en.

The hour being late in the afternoon. MT. Wheeler and companions placed the snakes. still locked in their deadly coils. into a box and took them to Castenada's Well, where they were dumped out and the fight continued. Within an hour the hattler was crushed into an inert mass. The kingsnake realizing that his foe was dead. proceeded to investigate. and smelled his old enemy over carefully from head 10 tail. one of the men had removed the rattles from the rat tlesnake toward the last of the battle and the stump Was still bleeding. As the kingsTlake came to the bleeding stump his body writhed and swelIed and his head raised and swayed from side tO side and then descended onto the luckless tail with an angry swish. Then without further ceremony he proceeded to swallow his late enemy in the most approved canabalistic manner. In a short time he had one half of the rattler inside of him and then coiled his body around the re- maining portion, and by drawing up the folds forced all but the head of the rattler into himself. The rattler's head was too large to freely enter tke kingsnake's mouth. but not to be de- prived of Vcstage of his old foe the snake moved over to n nearby rock and pressing the head against the rock in a short time had pressed il past the distcndcd fragments of the mouth. The hard fought battle had been won and the victor having disposed of the spoil sluEGishly and wearily dragged its battered and bleeding frame into a nearby bush, there to digest the din ner it had so hardily won. Four hours had been consumed in the battle and deglutition of the vanquished rattler."

GOOD WAYS
TO COOK VENISON
Here tp Feslpes For Preparing
Steaks. Outlets and Stews...svery
Part Edible.

This Is the venison season, and as
the days are all too few in which we
can buy and eat the deer flesh with
out violating the game laws, II be-
hooves us now TO partake OF this meat
as freely and as frequently as oppor-
tunity offers. AS there is practically
no part OF deer that is not good to
eat, IL properly cooked, the choice OF
the diner ranges from steak 10 outlet
and from roast TO stew. For ven-
ison stew take three or four pounds
OF venison and cut IL into pieces that
are not too small. Melt some butter
In saucepan and fry the meat for a
few minutes, or until II has Drowned
slightly on all sides; then put il into
the stewpot with little more than
enough cold water TO cover Il. Add
eight or ten onions, halving or quar-
tering them II they are too large, and
season with both salt and celery salt.
Don't let the meat cook too quickly,
but when IL is tender-it should take
a couple OF hours-add half n dozen
picked walnuts that have already
been mashed TO pulp and about two
tablespoonfuls OF mushroom catsup.
Thicken with -four and serve.
In preparing venison steak for the
table have the meat cut thick-an
inch and half is not too thick, and
some like il thicker. Let IL lie in n
cool place, but not actually on ice,
for twenty-four hours. When ready
to cook heat an iron skillet until It Is
almost red hot, put the steak upon
1t, and after IL has broiled for two
minutes on one side turn II and cook
IL on the other side. At the expiration
OF the four minutes reduce the heat.
grease the skillet literally with but
ter, and let the steak cook slowly for
fifteen or twenty minutes, according
TO It's thickness. In serving use no
seasoning but ordinary pepper and
salt. unless little more butter should
be needed.
Although venison outlets are also
good when cooked in this way, Wal
lace Irwin recommends another meth
cd OF preparing them. He trims the
outlets, puts them in an earthen dish,
and covers them with a specially pre-
pared marinade. After they have
been in this for twenty-four hours
they are wiped dry, larded and
broiled over brisk fire. To prepare
the marinade Mr.. Irwin takes four
tablespoonfuls OF vinegar. same guam
ttty OF grape juice, one small chopped
onion, two bayleaves. four cloves, n
blade Of mace and two sprigs OF pars-
ley to each pound Of meat. This mix
ture Is then put over the fire, and as
soon as it comes to the boiling point
is poured over the venison. New
