The "Panio Plank"

The Republican platform adopted
at Chicago says
Nothing so clearly demonstrates
the sound basis upon which our COM
mercial, industrial and agricultural
interests are founded and the neces-
sity Of promoting their continued
welfare through the operation Of Re-
publican politics as the recent safe
passage of the American people
through a financial disturbanc e
which if appearing in the midst of
Democratic rule or the menace of it
might have equalled the familiar
Democratic panics of the past, We
congratulate the people upon thisre-
newed evidence of American SUI
premacy and hail with confidence the
signs now manifest of complete
restoration of business prosperity in
all lines Of trade, commerce and
manufacturing"
The financial disturbance" was
under the operation Of Repub-
lican politics, but if things had been
otherwise matters might have been
worse, the platform makers announce.
For solemn humbuggery and bluff
Republican campaign literature Of
the past Or present has nothing to
equal this.

The Springfield Republican says
vermont is for the first time to
have a full socialist ticket in the
field at the September election, and
a noteworthy fact about it is that all
the names thereon are English or
Yankee. The nominee for governor,
Joseph H. Dunbar, of North Hart
land, is a mathematician whose
arithmetics are said to be used in the
public schools of the state. Some
people up that way will now be rails
ing the question whether the Dunbar
arithmetic has not become danger
GUS book to leave in the hands OF
children"
The st. Adams Messenger reminds
the Republican and other mistaken
contemporaries that this is not the
first time the Socialists as an organ
lied political party have put a ticket
in the field in Vermont. In 1904 the
Socialists nominated state ticket
headed by Clarence e. Morse OF
Springfield, as candidate for gov
ernor. They also named candidates
for congress and four presidential
electors. Vermont Socialists in that
year gave Debs for president 844
votes. In 1906 the Socialists again
put ticket in the field, headed by
Timothy Sullivan of Graniteville,
candidate for governor, who polled
512 votes in the September election.

"A sandwich which is a little more
trouble, but which quite repays for
the effort to make it, is made by
chopping English walnuts and mix
ing with cream cheese and little
chopped water cress, finishing with
a little mayonnaise. Add a spray of
cress after the mixture is spread on
the bread.
At a picnic given last summer one
of the girls brought tiny rolls, not
over two inches in diameter and
made quite round in shape. The
top of each roll had been cut to form
a lid, the crumbs pulled out and the
cavity filled with chopped chicken,
seasoned with salt and black pepper,
and made moist with very thick
cream.
Every one has a favorite recipe
tor devilled eggs, and the usual one
is to mash the yolks OF hard boiled
eggs, add mustard, salt and pepper
to taste, with enough vinegar to
make the mixture moist, and finally
a little chopped meat. When well
mixed, it is nodded into balls aud
returned to the cavity IN the whites
OF the eggs. A good variation OF
this is to add grated cheese instead
Of meat, and mayonnaise or cream

THE EELPoT.
Bookmakers and Crews at Their Ease
 After the Races.
New York SnnN

CNeW York Sun.)
 Ever hear of the Eelpot?" said q man who goes to the racetrack often enough to get acquainted with many Of the regulars. No? We'll there are very few of the standing army of 1000 bookmakers, sheet writers, outside men and cashiers who do not swear by this little joint.
 Tt was 2 week or SO ago when ] was introduced 10 the place. In com pany with a bOokmaker who was play ing them from the ground I had more than a fair day. We were abroad five or six that landed first under the wire and as rsual lad a dring after cashing each bet.
 AS We dropped off the train at Long Island City my two friends started to leave the station instead of following me in a dash to the ferry.
 You're not going to put me up against any Long Island whisky?" l cried in dismay
 "Oh. it's all right; we're going to the Eelpot."
 There was nothing to distinguish the saloon they dived into from the many others, except that the others had perhaps a solitary customer hang ing to the bar, while the Eelpot was crowded to the doors Back of the bar was picture of Joe Cassidy, the sport ing politician of Long Island, while in front and surging out into the hallway and back room were lined up brigade of the chalkers division all ready to at tack the eelpOt.
 Tn a few moments the pot arrived. and the rush for it was as great as though Sol Lichtenstein had put up 2 10 1 against an 8 10 favorite. The foolish virgins who had stopped to drink at the bar were left in his first rush.
 For the eelpot arrived, carried by very small boy. and was itself none too large. Our object being principal ly eels, We managed to get two or three delicious mOrsels before adjourning to the Oar for something to wash them down with.
 There the sight was unique. The one bartender could not begin to serve the crowd. He was joined by a vol unteer well known in the field by the sobriquet of Double O. but even with lillS ueIp many or the customers hdQ 10 go behind the bar and get their owr. drinks and glasses. In spite of the fact that every man in the crowd was a gambler there was not the slightest suspicion that any one would dodge paying his score.
 In the back room was a well known boOkmaker, surrounded by his helpers. who shouted out I've got my crew here 5nd there's no money in the cash box to feed them. Bring us eels,'
 But the second pot of eels was mobbed and gobbled up long before the hungry crew was served 1'her followed a steaming piece of corned beef
 short handed as the place always is, there was no attendant to carve it, as the eel boy was scarcely tall enough to reach to the free lunch counter The ubiquithCs Double O. was pressed into service again and sliced off juicy cuts until :he whole crowd was happy.
 As the early airds left for the ferry later trains brought in other contin- gents, and the place was crowded ev- cry minute until the last special had dumped it's load in Lon Island City .
