Supreme Court Upholds Rail- road Company in Regard
 to Stock Issue
UNANIMOUS DECISION
J. J. Hill Plea Sed With Courts Decis. ion and He Says It is No More Than He Has Expected, Not
 Withslanding Other One.

St Paul, Minn, March 2S.-The state supreme court to-day upheld the Great Northern Railroad con- pany in it's contention that it had the right to issue the $6O,OOO,OOO of stock authorized by the board of di- rectors some months ago, and which was enjoined by Attorney General Young, who contended that the com pany should first come before the state railroad and warehouse com mission and submit to an examina- tion to show the necessity and the purpose of the issue. This conten- tion of the state was upheld by Judge Hallam in the Ramsey county dis trict court who ordered an injunction to issue. The supreme court to-dya reversed that decision.
 The opinion of the court was unanimous. Chief Justice Start de- livered the opinion.

New York, March 2S.-"The de- 'cision of the Minnesota court was no more than we expected" said J. J. Hill when he was informed that the supreme court upheld the Great Northern stock issue. For fifteen years we had been doing the same thing, with never any serious opposi- tion from the authorities of that state."
 The four deferred payments or in- stallments on new Great Northern stock will amount to $24,0OO,OOO by April g next. As the payment of so large sum at this time might ere ate some disturbance in the money market. it is believed that stock holders who may find 1t inconvenient to pay the full instalments will be granted an extension of time.

MARMALApE MADE At HOME.
Housekeeper Gets Excellent Sweet Al
Small Cost.

The housekeeper who practices
economy from necessity and whose
family is fond of orange marmalade
as we'll as OF the fresh fruit, has solv-
ed the problem Of making excellent
marmalade at little less than half
the cost Of the same bought ready
made. She saves the peel from the
oranges eaten by the family, in an
alright box, until she has enough
to make, when cut in very fine strips,
with all the inner pith removed with
sharp knife, q pint or a little over.
The oranges are to be peeled dry, that
Is, all the peeling removed before the
inner skin is broken, and these dry
skins will keep in a cool place two
weeks without molding. When she
has enough, six large navel oranges
and three good lemons are purchased.
This fresh fruit ia cut in two and
with sharp penknife the pulp of the
fruit is removed without any of the
fine inner skin which divides 1t into
sections. There will be some Juice
left In the fruit, but this is carefully
squeezed out and added to the pulp
From the lemon pulp every seed is
taken out and then orange and lemon
pulp is placed in a deep dish and COW
cred with three pounds Of granalated
sugar. The peel of the oranges and
lemons Is now cut into sections, care
fully trimmed Of all inner pith, and
cut In very thin slices or straws.
These are added to the pint Of previ.
ously prepared slices of orange peel,
and the whole placed in a saucepan
with sufficient water to just cover
them. Then they are boiled gently
till The skins are perfectly cooked and
so tender that small straw will
pierce then easily. 1t may be neces-
to add little more water from time
to time. There should be just enough
water on the peels when they are
cooked enough to barely cover them.
To this is added the orange and lemon
pulp and sugar and the whole is boil
ed till little poured on a cold plate
will set. The marmalade must be
cooked slowly, and great care must
be taken to prevent its setting on the
bottom OF the saucepan. This quaint
ty will fill six ordinary jelly glasses
or little more, and it's cost is not
more than AZ cents, an average of
seven cents a glass. This is quite as
good rs the marmalade bought in the
stores and very much cheaper, with
the added advantage Of knowing ex-
actly what is in it.

How to Build a Collar Box.

The fashion Of wearing the turn
down embroidered linen collar has
created a demand for a proper recep-
tacle for them, and this comes in the
form of book covers about Is inches
long and six inches wide. These are
covered on the outside with cretonne
or silk and on the inside with a sheet
OF perfumed cotton over which is
white linen. Straps of cotton are
sewed across the covers about three
inches from either end, and through
these the ends of the collars are Slip
ped. This keeps them perfectly fiat
and in much more convenient form
than collar box. The covers fold to-
gether and tie with ribbon, giving q
perfectly fiat case that may be easily

HAS TAKEN UP HARD TASK.
Secretary corteIyou Apparently Aims
to Accomplish the Impossible.

Fortunately Secretary Cortelyou
has proved in three government de-
partments that he has the habit of &C.
complishing what his predecessors
pronounced impossible."--N. Y. Mail
His immediate predecessor at the
head OF the treasury department sup
plies an illustration. Secretary Shaw
pronounced 1t impossible to collect
the revenues to which the government
Is entitled, to provide the protection
TO which domestic labor and capital
are entitled and to maintain the hon
esty and efficiency in the customs
service to which the people as a
whole are entitled. and at the same
time open wide the door to frauds on
the revenue, to facilitate the underselL
ing OF American producers by foreign
exporters under the consignment sys-
tenn, and to the encouragement Of
wholesale graft and rascality among
customs officers. Accordingly, Mr..
Shaw refused to sanction the Ger
man agreement and resigned from the
cabinet. Now, as 1t appears, Secre-
tary Cortelyou is about to accomplish
the impossible. He is going to give
away and keep the same market; he
Is going to smash protection and
maintain protection; he is going to
promote dishonesty and insure recti-
tude. He will turn out to be indeed
great man If he shall succeed in
these indeavors.

postmen are not paid by the state;
the recipient of the letters have to
remunerate them according to the
