STRENGTHENING EFFECT
 Attention has recently been called to medical men to the strengthening CT. feet of sour milk on the young. but lt seems that what is now found by them has been long known to the nomads oi Asia, the Kafirs and old residents or South Africa. It is said that It mas been the training diet of many Of the stalwart athletes of those countries
 The story is told of an Addo Bush farmer who had marched on with a 300-pound bale of wool for q wager. In his youth the Addo man had won some local fame as "weight-putter. " He called at the farm horne of one Of the great athletes of the Gradwell fam fly on Fish River Rand and artfully led the conversation to the subject of weight-putting. The Gradwells were a tall race and this member of the fam lily climbed up to feet 4 inches be- fore he stopped and broadened out He had trained on calabash milk. The champion said to his visitor:
 Like to have a go?"
 Don't mind" said the Addo man.
 All right. I'll allow you ten feet and see if I can beat you throw"
 The Aldo man smiled to himself. Ten feet seemed too liberal. He heayed and then stood off. grinning.

A foreign ex- change gives the following recipe in answer to a correspondent who wrote as'king for 1t after reading the favor able opinion of medical men on sour milk:
 The sour milk that comes from the churn and Is refreshing beverage to those who like 1t is one kind of a sour milk and the thick milk from the cal. abash is another.
 Take your caiabash. your bottle or your can; fill 1t with new. fresh milk from the cow. cork or put on the lid and set the vessel out in the sun. Give the milk a good shaking at intervals until 1t becomes thick. Add to 1t each day more new milk and go on adding new milk each day to make good the amount consumed. After the milk Is thick set the vessel near the fire.
 The Kafirs of South Africa make their thick milk in calabashes which have grown old in the service. and the Bechuanas make their thick milk in skin bags. The flavor and the bouquet are rather strong, but many European children have been brought up on this strong food from the native ca1abash when all other foods have failed. +

MR. ASQUITH'S CABINET.

That Mr.. Asquith would reOrganize the Cab
met and assume his place as Prime Minister
without dissovng Parliament and making an
appeal to the country was a fOregone conclusion.
1t would have been poor politics to call for
general election at 1 time when the popular tide
was setting strongly against the government
There was. moreover no moral reason for sub
iecting the nation to the cost and disturbance
involved in the selection of a new House Of
Commons. That he would make only few
changes also confidently assumed. There
were no grave animosites or dssensOns in the
Cabinet calling for radical reorganization As
q matter of fact, the changes announced
are none of them startling, and the sum of them
is no greater than that not infrequently known
in the course of an administration without Il
change of prime ministers.
The elevation of Mr.. John Morley to the peer
age is perhaps at once the most surprising and
the most natural of all the changes. 1t is. or it
seems, surprising, because Mr.. Morley has long
been Liberal Of decidedly Radical inclina-
tions and might at any time in the last twenty
years have been selected the fttest leader Of
campaign for the abolition of the House of
Lords, On the other hand it is natural and
appropriate. because it is the customary recoeni-
tion Of long and eminent services, and by rea.
son Of Mr.. MOrley's years and state of health
is the only means of securing continuance of
his services in the India Office, where he is all
but invaluable Nobody will grudge him mis-
honors, nor will there be material criticism of
his acceptance of peerage, though his doing so
VIII erect a new barrier against abolition of the
upper house. A Radical cry against the peers
would sound hollow after the elevation of the
most distinguished member of the party to that
house
The shifting of Lord TweedmOuth from the
Admiralty to the Lord Presidency of the Coun-

most literally to all interests concerned dlvls-
ions of party sentiment elsewhere. What ex-
cuse them can be made for denouncing the re-
suit and attempting to reverse it by calling
guerilla conventions?
We are not at all concerned with the plea
that the Virginia organization did not express
the ideas and purposes of elements in the party
dissatisfied with its action. 1t may even have
insisted that only actual electors were quail
fed to be national delegates or members of the
nominating conventions. That is no unusual
or arbitrary rule. In this state, in Pennsylva-
MIA and Wisconsin-in most Northern states, IN
fact-only qualified electors are allowed to vote
in the primaries at which national delegates are
either directly or indirectly named. Why should
not that practice he made universal: 1t is fair
and Just and helpful guarantee that the party
will be governed by its own members and not
by outsiders. The Virginia Republicans have
voters and non-members have Republicans
in other parts of the country. Yet the sugges-
ton is now made that the party in Virginia is
to be held to a different rule of action from
that adopted in most of the other states, and
because it has not followed that different rule
irregular bodies are to convene and send irregu-
lar delegates to Chicago. We cannot but think
that such counsel is foolish and mischevous
Every state is entitled to autonomy in such
matters. The only legitimate basis for a contest
is an allegation that the contestants have met
more faithfully than their opponents the gen
orally accepted tests of party regularity.

ucARREN.S INJTNCTION.

The anti-injunctionsts in Congress will have
TO turn their attention TO the Hon. Pat Nc
Carren. who is making some startling uses in
politics of an adaptable but hitherto little used
political and legal weapon. Mr.. McCarren lives
in dread of losing his power as the Democratic
leader in Kings County, because his chief asso-
ciates in the management of the Democratic
party in this state, Mr.. Murphy and Mr.. Con
ners have become tired of his company and are
disposed to dispute his claim that party affairs
in Brooklyn can be best administered on the
time-honored basis of autonomy" Mr.. Murphy
and Mr.. Corners have grown weary of an "au-
tonomous" leadership which indorses a cand-
date for the Governorship in public resolutions
and throws twenty thousand or thirty THOUSAND
Democratic votes against him at the polls. They
purpose reducing Kings County to a satrapy of
Tammany Hall by the simple device of reject
ing the delegates to Democratic state conven-
tions chosen by the McCarren machine and sub
stituting for them delegates named at the Wig
wan in 14th street. Against brutal strategy Of
this sort most Democratic statesmen have been
poweress. Might usually rules in Democratic
conventions, and equity must bow to strong arn
methods. But Mr.. IIcCarren is an inventive
genius, and he has turned to the courts to frus-
trate the working out Of the Murphy y-Conners
theory of majority rule Not long ago he sue
cessfully enjoined those worthless from expelling
him from the Democratic State committee.
Now he has secured a writ TO prevent them
from passing on the credentials of his Kings
County delegates after the approved Buffalo
fashion.
Mr.. McCarrens bold coup will carry dismay
into the camp of the dctators. who had al
ready arranged to dispense with his services as
a Democrat. Are they'to be bound by the cold
decisions of court on such a burning issue
as What constitutes a Democrat?' If so, De
mocracy will become a mere abstraction and
presently there will be nothing substantial left
for Democrats to divide over or quarrel about.
Are to have a high court Of arbitration to
decide who is and who is not smon-pure JEFF
| fersonian? Perish the thought! The next thing
we know the Hon Bourke Cochran will be i'm
| itating McCarren and getting out writ Of in
| junction TO reverse Mr.. Murphy's dctum that
| he has ceased TO be Democrat.

APPARENTLY NO ESCAPE.

There is reason for general satisfaction that
the recount proceedings are at last under way.
Few persons care about the recount itself, or
expect that it will reveal anything of conse-
quence or think that there are wrongs whose
righting is overdue, but it is a relief to feel
that both the principals in this action have ap-
parently exhausted all the expedients of delay
Having entered the courts, it is shown that they
cannot spend all the rest of their mortal days
in technical moves and countermOves, but are
actually forced at length to meet upon the real
issue.
1t has always been our opinion that when his
title was disputed the Mayor should have been
the last to throw obstacles in the way of testing
its legality. He could not wish to hold an
office to which he was not elected, and, instead
of standing upon technicalities, he should have
waived them all in his determination that the
truth should be known and in his resolution not
TO profit by any ones mistakes or dishonesty
1t is urged that 1t was not fair that he should
be put to the expense of defending his title,
but his course could have no other effect than
to multiply the expense, and, moreover, it wore
the unfortunate aspect of tmidity. But what
ever fear of the issue the Mayors actions may
have suggested, are bound to say it was
surpassed in the conduct of the complainant
He has moved heaven and earth to keep up a
contest the trial of which he apparently
dreaded. 1t is well that the contestants who
have run all the way around the earth to avoid
a meeting should meet at last

HOW STATES 60 DRY.

The foolish manner in which the retail liquor
business Is conducted Is SC patent and general
that it may easily be rated as the most impor
tant single factor in bringing victory to the anti
saloon leaguers throughout the country. A typ
ical illustration is about to be given by the
liquor men of White Plains. according to re-
ports from that suburb. local option law
goes into effect there ON May /. Instead of
submitting to the clear will of the citizens how
ever obnoxious to them the mandate may be-
the liquor men are doing just what thousands Of
their brethren elsewhere have done to the ulti-
mate injury of the business-they are making
ready to avail themselves oc every discOverable
loophoe in the law. 1t is estimated that the
local option measure will not effectively close
more than ten or fifteen OF the fifty dramshOps
against which it aimed. Only the whole
saers seem to be decisively routed.
In the long run such tactics will bear bitter
fruit as they have done repeatedly in other
districts. BY deliberately and boastfully dOdg
ing the command of the electorate dealers must
bring upon their trade the enmity of many cit
izens who though tolerant toward respectable
saloons, set their faces sterny against the sa-
lOonkeeper who mOcks law and public opinion.
When he operates in small community, where
his methods and their results are clearly visible
and observed by virtually the whole population
he invites his best friends TO turn against him.
The strange thing is that he has been blind to
the trend Of public sentiment, while nearly forty
million Americans have been banishing saloons
at every local election for the last five years
The saloOnkeeper who reads in this unparal-
leled crusade only a fanatica dread of alcohol
has not the intelligence of tadpole. The bit
terest foe of the liquor business is the man who
refuses TO join in maintaining the law and keep
ing good order.

TWAIN VAS "SOUSED." /"
Humo'7st Erplains 1t Vas Wares
Fault on Trip from Bermuda.

The first words Mark Twain uttered in whispered
confidence the reporters who boarded the quebec
liner Bermudian yesterday that he
"soused' on the second day out from Bermuda.
The humorist and his friend. H. II. Rogers. who
went with him to the islands seven weeks ago for
rest passengers the BermUdian Mr..
Rogers dismissed the subject of his return with the
brief remark that he felt well and had been bene-
fitted greatly by the vacation.
Yes. Rogers a good boy" said Mr.. Clemens
and he has taken lease OF life and affairs
But I-well, I must confess that 1 'soused' on
the second day out from Bermuda. It was the first
time in my life that I have had the misfortune
but I wasn't alone There young lady with
me- clad in white. just 8 1 was who BECAME
'soused' under the same circumstances and az the
same time"
Not a word of truth in it, interposed Mr.
Rogers.
oh you don't know thing about it, returned
the humorist II will explain. 1 was standing on
the main deck aft, looking at the patent taffran
log. in the company OF Miss Dorothy Sturges six
teen years old and from Boston. AS we were
watching the line take up its slack beautiful blue
comber broke the rail and 'soused' the two Of
us from head to foot I guess 1 forgot TO tell
Henry about that"
Asked in what way the trip had been of benefit
to himself and Mr. Rogers Mr.. Clemens said that
1t was largely due TO the escape from noise.
''Oh, l a member of the anti-noise society
now he continued. II a disciple OF quiet for
eNelnOfe. nave MADE all the noise allotted TO
me- and now intend to be quiet I have flung 10
the four winds all lecture and all overtures
for after-dnner speeches, and will lead henceforth
the simple life
Anything else happen TO you the way from
Bermuda asked a reporter
Yes, two things" said the humorist with a
smile. Il offered Henry 50 bill as We came
close to Sandy Hook and he refused it, Said
he didn't need 1t. That was one thing important
and the other I got while sitting AFT
with a number of passengers suffering from NAL
de mer. The weather rude. but they look out
for ones comfort on board, and that is how l got
my little scare. I had good black cigar about
half smoked as l sat among the seasick ones They
could not understand how | weatheyed the gale
but young woman who recovering called my
attention to a sign that advised passengers who
would avoid seasickness TO refrain from smoking
on the after deck. The suggestion was we'll taken
and went forward to forget it,"
Mr.. Clemens spoke rather pesSimisticaIIy of the
plans to deepen the channel of the Mississippi
River He declared that Providence had wiUed
that the river should be crooked. and that a com
pany backed by fourteen Banks of England could
never make a success of the job.
Mr.. Clemens will remain here for five weeks and
then so to his new house near Danbury Conn
