Mackay Increases Gift

Word was received from Clarence
Mackay, yesterday afternoon, that the
proposed bleachers and training house
for the University of Nevada had
passed the muster of his architects
with the exception of few minor. de-
tails. Mr.. Mackay also notified Pro-
fessor Kenndy that instead of using
wood in the construction of the club
house, he had decided to make the
building correspond with the Mackay
mining building, and would build it of
stone at an extra cost of $4,000. This
means that the training house on
Mackay field will require an outlay of
$780, 900, making the structure equal to
that of any college in the United States

New Hats.

It is very fashionable to use a band
of gold braid as a trimming for the
crown Of q hat The braid can be
bought anywhere by the yard, and the
hat needs no more than a band Of it
tightly stretched around the crown. At
the front OF at the side there can be
placed a white lace butterfly, positively
immense in its proportions.
Hats right from Paris show the very
high crown. rather square in shape.
and the narrow brim. These hats are
almost like very high crowned sailors.
The narrow brim rolls slightly upward.
while the top is very high and very
much trimmed with folds OF silk and
with small flowers. daisies, bluets or
buttercups.
The mushroom shape, which proved
to be so very becoming, win hold over
this season. In its new forms it is
rather wide In the brim, and 1t turns
down all the way around, like a butter
bowl inverted, and its top is heavily
trimmed with flowers. The newer of
the mushrooms are a little wider on
one side than the other, and there are
others that are a little narrower IN
the front than at the back.

AN OLD TINE RECIPE.
Virginia Fried Chicken That "Mothe,
Used to Make"

Used to Make"
Fried chicken is, OF course, my chief
recollection Of the poultry dishes
another used to make" says Christine
Terhune Herrick in the May Delinea-
tor. We had roast chicken besides
and barbecued and smothered and boil
ed chicken and roast and boiled turkey
was as regular an article on the Vir-
ginia bill of fare as beefsteak is In
some northern homes-chicken, fried
plain or with cream gravy. with bacon
or without Broiled chicken appeared
pretty often-we always had II for
breakfast Sunday-but it was not such
a real Virginia dish as fried chicken.
The southern cook of old time might
fail on anything else In the culinary
line, but l don't believe I ever heard
Of one who got her han OUT in cook
ing poultry.
For this you must have young chick
ems, brolling size, and they must be
cut apart as for fricassee, rinsed,
wiped dry, peppered lightly and then
rolled in -four. a piece at a time
Meanwhile half a pound Of salt pork
should have been sliced and cooked in
frying pan long enough to make the
fat flow, but not enough to brown the
pork. In this fat lay the pieces Of
chicken and fry to a good brown, turn
ing the pieces as they cook. When
all are done take out with a fork, so
as to free from grease, and lay in
hot dish. Set this in the open oven
and pour into the gravy left in the fry
Ing pan a cupful OF rich milk-half
cream is better-add a tablespoonful
of -four, rubbed smooth, with a table
spoonful Of butter, stir until the sauce
has boiled smooth and thick, add a
tablespoonful Of minced parsley and
pour over the chicken.
