QUEEN ALEXANDRIA PUDDING.
Every experienced housekeeper has
a list of ten or a dozen simple puddings
and if she is sorely beset with house
hold worries she goes down the list and
begins again, having confidence that
whatever else goes wrong her puddings
are all right.
Qneen Alexandra's s pudding had its
origin in England. Melt two table,
spoonfuls of butter in one-half pint of
boiling milk, then let it cool. When it
is quite cold stir in six eggs that have
been thoroughly beaten with three
tablespoonful of sifted sugar and the
strained JUICE of one large lemon or of
two small ones. Line a pudding dish
with puff paste. pour in the lemon mix
ture, twist some thin strips of tn e
paste across the top to form diamond
shaped spaces, and twist another mar
row strip around the edge of the pud-
ding. Bake it until firm in moderate
oven.

with pneumonia last week is at this
writing improving and it is now thought
he will recover.
W. d. Nelson departed Sunday for
California where he has some rich min

Jas. Stell of Eckert was the latter
part of last week installing siphon in
the Cooperative coal mine to carry off
the water which has been encountered.
The location of this mine makes such
an arrangement very feasible and it is
now thought there will be no trouble
with the water.
That the County Seat is rapidly
growing is known fact, but when it is
stated that the building improvements
during 1908 amounted to the large sum
of $213. 600 it makes the rest of the
county sit up and take notice. This
was an advance of $50, 600 over 1907.
While Delta has been making this phe-
nominal growth the remainder of the
county has not been standing still as
many new residences have been built
thruout the other towns and on the
farms which will doubtless equal the
advancement of Delta thus making
big total for Delta county for the year
1908. The prospect for the year 1903
is that far better record will be made
than has ever been known before
After an illness of about four weeks
Henry Pointer died at his Tongue
Creek home Tuesday evening at TBS

arily from poison oak together with
complications. He was an old resident

in 1887, coming direct from winsted,
Conn. Deceased had reached the age
Of 46 years and months. He is sur
vived by a wife and son and a large
circle Of friends. Funeral services
were held at Eckert yesterday after
noon conducted by Rev. Ferris of
Cedaredge. and the remains laid to
rest in the Eckert cemetery.

ELIGIBILITY
RULES ARE CHANGED
Mushroom Teams of AlStars No Longer Possible Under
Latest Decision of Washington Association-Pate
Printers Opportunity.

Exit Morning Glories, Oslers, and
Shorts from the Washington Bowling
Association and annual city tourna-
ment, and enter Johnuies. Giants. Cubs.
and other Plate Printer teams. At
least, that would be the natural deduc-
ton from the resolution adopted at
Saturday nights meeting OF the eXecu-
tive board OF the association.
In the parent body, the American
Bowling Congress, teams ana not
leagues are recognized, ard the teams.
to be eligible for membership. must be
regularly organized and have regular
practice nights, az least once a week.
Until the last tOuTE amenJ Of the
Washington association only teams be-
longing to organized leagues were ad-
mitted 70 membership and competition.
but at the last tournament actuated by
a desire 10 swell the number OF entries,
several unattached teams whose per
sonnet included bowlers on many OF the
teams IN the District and Departmental
Leagues, were permitted TO compete
bowling under the team names or Us
lers. Shorts, and Morning GlOrles.
These teams were admitted at the eleV-
enth hour, and at the eleventh hOur
of Dlav the NH,aing Glories, composed
OF boyVIers on the Bank Clerks, Florists,
and Fat Mems teams, IN the District
League, won the championship and first
place coin
There was then, and has since been,
much discussion anent the Morning
C5lOries. and whether under the eligi-
biity rules they and the Shorts and
Oslers should have been admitted.
At the first meeting of the association
a week ago II was the unanimous Opln-
ion Of all representatives that strict
eligibility rules be clearly defined and
adhered to. This duty was delegated TO
the executive board, composed or the
officers of the association and FOUR rep
resentatives. who were duly elected.
At the meeting OF this board the 1Ol-
lowing resolution was adopted;
"AU unattached teams desiring mem
bership in the Washington Bowling As
ISOLATION, to be eligible 10 take part IN
the annual tournament, must be com
posed wholly OF bOwlers not members
of regularly organized league team
members OF the association"
AS all Of the bowlers on the Morning
GIories and Shorts we're members OF
league teams, this rule apparently bars
them from entering the tournament, eX-
cept with their regular league teams
They will be eligible as Fat Men, Orien-
tails, CAROLS, etc, but not as shorts
or "Glories."
1t is equally evident under the rule
that the Plate Printers, who were very
much IN last years tournament, but
have since organized a duck pin league,
are eligible to again participate In the
tournament. In fact, they have signi-
fed their intention OF competing and
have requested that special night be

.PHILBIN AND COY
UP FOR CAPTAlNCY
Election Held Up for Several
WeekS-SeaSon Good
Financially.

NEW HAVEN SOM, Nov. IA re-
organization IN Yale football coaching
and playing Is probable before another
year. Yale alumni believe that the
team defeated Saturday contained the
best material Yale has had since Gordon
Browns famous eleven Of 1871,
YaIe's football captain for next year
will not be picked for a couple of weeks.
The team IS divided over the candidacy
OF Ted Coy and Steve PhIlbin. Coy's
work has been spectacular though err
ratio. while that Of Philbin has been
steady as well as excellent for two sea-
sons. Chances slightly favor the cleo
ton OF Coy.
Not a player received scratch IN
Saturdays game. AS Yale loses only
Captain Burch, Brides. and Wheaton,
indications are that a splendid eleven
win represent the Blue next season.
YaIe's football managers have re-
ceived about $4,000 from the season.
OF this $4,000 went 10 Yale and the
same amount TO Harvard from yester-
days game. and $500 to Yale and
Princeton each from the game in Tiger
town last week. Yale and Brown d.
vided about 5000 as the result OF their
game here two weeks ago. these form
ing the principal items in the total.
Yale's expenses are heavier than usual
this year owing to the heavy repairs
needed on the old and fast decaying
wooden grandstand, but the football as
ISOLATION should clear some $4,000 on the
season.

Republican HARMONY.

Cakes Journal: By CHANGING over
our exchanges we note how they are
bowling for harmony in the Repub-
lican ranks. Nothing would suit us
better than to see this prevail tt roug-
out the states that have had heir
factional fights before and at the
primaries. More harm and dissatis-
faction, has been created in he last,
two years than will ever be totally
obliterated in the next ten. It has
not only done its work in. the state
tickets, but has been. most bitter
among the county candidates. The
Democrats in Dickey county have ,rea-
lized the, dissension and are taking
advantage OF it.. There is only one
thing for the Republicans to do and
that is to walk up, to- the polls and
vote the straight. ticket. =; 1t Ia of
greater, Importance this year than for
the past eight, as there will fall upon
the next president of the; United
States the appoiting of from one to
three judges to the supreme bench,
and they must be, to sustain the high
est standing of our country, men who
are Roosevelt Republicans, and favora-
BILE to the advancement of the common
people and not to corporations. Have
we not seen in the past when four
Democratic and five Republicans
Judges sat on the supreme bench, and
the Democrats voted against the peo-
pie debating to the corporations.
while the Republican judges voted for
federal hinderance, so that the rail-
roads could not run everything their
own way. It has been tried time and
again and with William H. Taft pre-
sident of the United States, we can
rest assured that the great work of
Theodore Roosevelt will be %carried
cat, and this great nation will keep
abreast OF tn. times.
