capital Ealf-past nine was striking by
the cathedral clock at the moment when
a dull sound resembling the rustling of
reeds shaken by the wind was audible on
the gigantic highway joining the city to
mainland. This sound soon become more
distinct, and changed into the trampling
of horses, which was deadened by the
damp air and the ground, softened by a
heightened rain. 4 black mass emerged
from the fog, and two horsemen wrapped
in thick cloaks stood out distinctly in the
moonlight.
These horscmen seemed to have made q

the inhabitants were still awake.
The horsemen stopped before this
house, which was an inn, and without

A RECEIVER FOR sMALLs.
Date of the Hearing of the Chicago
Firms Application Set for May II.

Atchison, May MAY IL has been
set as a date for the hearing of the
application of Smith, Carey & Co. for
receiver for the property of the
Atchison Live Stock company. A
temporary restraining order has been
issued by Judge Hudson to preserve
the property in it's present state until
the hearing is had.
AS has been stated, Smith, Carey &
Co.'s claim of $4,000 and interest, is
old cattle paper. The Small brothers,
owners of the Atchison Live Stock
company, formerly owned 1000 acre
ranch at Hoyt, Jackson county, and
were extensively engaged in the cat
tie business. This property, it is un-
derstood, is no longer theirs. The
Smalls fed large punches of cattle
after coming to Atchison, on the land
of the Howell-Jewett Lumber COM
pany, which they purchased for feed
lots. To feed these cattle, they built
a small mill, which they continued to
feeding business a few years ago.
They found a ready sale for chop
feed, and enlarged the mill two or
three different times, adding machin-
cry for the manufacture of corn meal,
grits, etc. Last fall the mill burned,
and the loss was estimated at $4,000
insurance $4,000.
At the time of the fire the Atchison
Live Stock company, which was the
name the Smalls were operating I'M
der, was considerably in debt and the
insurance policies were turned over to
the Exchange National bank. A lit
tie mill was built after the fire at a
cost of about $500. This. with forty
acres of land, constitutes the property
which the Chicago firm has tied up.
It's security for the 1000 loan was
capital stock of the Atchison Live
Stock company. There are claims
fr,ef
hardware and machinery. for which
mechanics liens will be filed. There
is no connection between the Atch-
ison Live Stock company and the
Atchison Oatmeal & Cereal company.
as many suppose. The oatmeal mill is
owned principally by George NJ.
Noble, of Topeka, and Robert Waiter
man, of Atchison.

or not they would pay such a bounty.

THE ROAST OF VEAL
HOW 1T MAY BE DISPOSED OF
ECONOMICALLY.
Presents Fewer Problems Than the
Leg of Mutton-Chops and Cut
lets Make Excellent Second
Day Dishes.

T capable housewife, the easy
disposal of a roast of veal should be
a less serious problem than the eco
nomical disposition of a leg of NUT
ten. Even when there are but two
mouths to feed, the matter. is not one
that should tax her ingenuity to any
great extent. All that is required is
judgment in the selection of the re-
cipes that are to give the appearance
of variety to her daily menu, and
when it is veal that is the founda-
ton upon which she has to build the
choice of tasty and attractive dishes
is by no means a narrow one.
The first point to which she must
give her attention is the selection
of the veal itself, and this is a mat.
ter about which she cannot be too
careful, as the immature, or so-called
"bob' veal is frequently the
of many internal disorders. In spite
OF the vigilance of the boards Of
health, a great deal of this unwhole.
some meat escapes detection and
is sold as good veal by INSCRIPTIONS
marketmen. AS such meats may be
detected without much trouble, how.
ever, there is no reason why an ordi.
narily intelligent buyer need be i'm,
posed upon. Wholesome veal has a
pinkish tint, is firm to the touch, and
has hard bones. Bob" veal is of
a blush hue, and seems flabby and
sticky when pressed by the finger.
AS veal is a meat that does not
spoil easily after it has once been
cooked, the economical way to pur.
chase a roast is for the housewife to
order two or three times as much
as she can possibly eat at a single
meal. Bought in such quantity the
price will be lower, and there is no
reason why any of the meat should
be wasted. If it is the loin that has
been selected, let it be weighed, and
then request the butcher to cut off as
many chops as may be required for
a second meal. If it is the leg that
you prefer, have him cut off enough
slices of the meat to assure you a
few outlets. In this way the meat
for the second meal may be procured
at a much smaller cost than would
have been possible had the chops or
outlets been ordered separately.
Roast your veal, therefore, and en-.
JOY it just as much as you would if
the problem of it's disposal did not
confront you. Then, when you have
eaten enough, put the remains of the
roast into the ice-box, and at the next
meal serve the chops or outlets. If
you like, you may smother them a
