That is quite remarkable petition
which has been presented to Mayer
Parsons, signed by upwards of three
hundred citizens, among them some
of the most substantial in the city,
asking that the regulations with re-
spect to Sunday saloons be relaxed.
Doubtless many signed the paper
without fully realizing it serious pur-
port, viz: that it asked the city au-
thorities to suspend d state law bu!
probably all the signers had in mind
only what they conceived to be their
own interests and the interests of the
advanced for the actions are good or
not may be left an open question,
but one thing is certain Under a
popular form of government no law,
1t matters vino placed 1t on the
books, can be stronger than the pub
lie sentiment which stands behind tbs
executive authority whose duty it is
TO enforce such law. The mayor OF !
city may not presume to be greater
than the power that makes and I'M
makes mayors; and if the people o
Cairo want open saloons on Sundays
they will probably have open saloons
OH Sundays no matter what the stat
law says about it. 1t may be pre-
sumed, however, with entire safety
that very large majority of the sign
ers of the petition are not In favor o

The mob represents brute force and
chaos. The Springfield mob is nc

shows that human nature is very
much the same north or south, east

where the climate is less torrid: but
when aroused it acts with equal
ferocity its work is just as cruel

strongly against that which TENDS

the mob spirit in any community-we

TO EAT OUTDOORS
APPROPRIATE DAiNTiES FOR THE
PICNIC BASKET.
List of Sandwiches to Satisfy hppe-
tites Sharpened by the. Fresh Air
Ia a Long One Excellent
Fruit Cookies.

zone ham sandwich doesn't make a
picnic. Neither does a boiled egg, say
the girls who have been to cooking
school and learned all about making
spreads for outdoor celebrations
When they conduct their younger
brothers and sisters on trips this sum
mer. the lunch basket will contain
most wondrous jars of salad, all ready
TO spread on the buttered bread, cans
OF baked beans kept hot in an impro.
vised tireless cooker. and few other
delicious up-to-date picnic dainties
Even the sandwich has undergone
a transformation. Filings are usually
minced, and there is more variety in
the kind of bread used
One OF the newest sandwiches is
made with French rolls Make a
round opening in the top of each, and
with your finger scoop out all the
crumb, leaving the roll III shape with a
small opening on top. Save the little
piece of crust from the top to again
cover the opening after the roll IL
filled Chop very fine four olives. one
gherkin, one large green sweet pep
per and one tablespoonful OF capers.
Chop fine two ounces of cold cooked
veal or beef and mix ii with the white
meat of one chicken. chopped fine. Put
the olive and meat mixtures in sep
arate vessels. Wrap the rolls in a
napkin Then, just before time TO
serve mix all together, moisten with
a good mayonnaise. fill the rolls full
up to the top; put the little piece OF
crust you have saved on the top and
serve al once.
An attractive German sandwich that
always pleases the boys is made OF
rye bread, though wheat bread could
be used.
Cut thin slices of rye bread; butter
before slicing. Spread each slice with
thin layer Of Limburger cheese. Cut
bologna sausage into the thinnest
slices you can: place these on the
cheese. then a thin piece OF bread;
cover with another slice Of bread that
has been huttered and coated with a
layer OF cheese. Press the two to
gether and serve.
4 sort Of glorifed ham sandwich is
made by first ehopping the meat fine,
To each cupful of ham stir In two ia
blespoonfuls of melted butter. dash
OF cayenne and one-half teaspoonful OF
onion juice Spread thin slices of but.
tered bread with the paste; cover with
another slice of buttered bread; re-
move the crusts and cut into fancy
shapes If desired.
