In the Kitchen.

IN Ine hlLCI1GIs
Beets, turnips and potatoes should
not be kept together. but each should
naye n separate box. rs ti1ey absorb
fr1vors and odprs from each other. Al
most all vegetables nre better If they
are prepared early In the morning and
soaked In cold water until the time
for cooking. This is especially true OF
cauliflower. onions. string beans and
cabbage. Tiny little worms crawl into
cnuliflower and cabbage. and, while
not poisonous. they are extremely OBJ
jectionable. All vegetables should go
over the fire In boiling water. Salt
should be added to green vegeta b!es
while cooking. but not to underground!
vegetables, which should be salteu
when cooked.
In fireless cooking there are certain
Things to be remembered by. the mex
perIenced cook. One is that if dish
is left Indefinitely In the cooker 1t Will
sour. Soups. stcws. vegetables AMI
such things must be removed after "a
hours. and less In hot weather.
Generally speaking. all indigestihle
things take longer than the rest: ont
meal. beef stew. corned beef anh beans
need more time than steamed pull
lings. rice and chicken.
A third thing TO remember Is tnls.
Everything that takes very long time
to cool; Is improved and the process
FASTENED IT, when the time is half up
and the food cooled. the pail Is re-
moved and reheatel without opening

In all cooking. also. you must be

Path Prepared for Taft.

Mr.. Taft will begin his admInistra-
ton as president with the heartiest
admiration, the greatest friendship and
the promise of the fullest co-opera-
ton that the south has ever extend.
ed to Republican chief magistrate.
Expressions OF this feeling toward Mr..
Taft have been spontaneous. In a
very large degree 1t is reciprocal, for
Mr.. Taft has had precisely the right
attitude toward the south, not the
attitude of the partisan, but that OF
the great statesman. the broad, warm
hearted citizen. The way had been
prepared for him, It il true, by the
policies Of President Mckinley and
President Roosevelt; but Mr.. Taft is
peculiarly fitted to bring into closer
relation the several sections OF the
country. lie has a warm tempera-

CARRIED OFF BY LION.
Horrible Fate of Intrepid Hunter Who
Fell Asleep.

Near Tsayo station, 1873 miles from
Mombassa, during the construction OF
the line, 20 Indian coolies were killed
and eaten by lions, a writer on "Roose.
velts Hunting Grounds" in the Ma,
tional Magazine says. Naturally there
was a panic; the men could not work,
and three young men, Messrs. Hubner,
Parent and Ryal, took a car down to
the dangerous locality to slay the
slayers of men. The car was left on
the side track at the site OF for.
mer station long since discontinued
where few days before q lion had
actually sprung upon man on an
open railway truck as the train slowed
down at the station platform and car.
ried him, vainly shrieking for help,
into the jungle.
The men knew they must keep
watch against these man-eating beasts
which had lost all fear OF man and
would exert their utmost subtlety and
strength TO feed their consuming de.
sire for human flesh. II was arranged
that a sentinel should be always on
guard, and Ryal held the midnight
watch, sitting, rifle in hand, where he
could command the doors and win.
dows. Parent made a sleeping place
for himself on the floor, Hubner occu.

About two o'clock. in the murky
gloom OF the tropical night, overcome
by WEAKNESS and the enervatIng heat.
Ryal dropped asleep. A pair OF lam.
bent eyes sought him out from the
half-open door. a noiseless, powerful
form crept by or over Parent as he
lay asleep. and selling him in his
powerful jaws the man-eater of Tsavo
sprung out through the glass and sash
Of the nearest window into the cover
of the jungle. where Ryars whitened
bones were found later.
This tragedy caused the assembling
Of a great hunting party which swept
the country about Tsavo. and among
the lions killed was one great old lion
which had imbedded I'm his searred
and lately-healed hide several frag
ments Of window glass, which un
doubtly identified him as the slayer OF

A CONSIDERATION OF BRYAN.
Defeated Democratic Candidate ~ He

In justice to It's readers and espe
cially to it's Democratic readers, the
Tribune is constrained to say these
things. though they may seem to Mr.
Bryan ungracious and of the nature
OF that comfort which came to job
Yet II would be an unwise magnanim-
lily which should withhold these con.
siderations now while Mr.. Bryan's
future is n subject of keen interest.

Ii is true. and II may be said with.
out dfsparagement, that Mr.. Bryan
ought To pray to be delivered from
partisan leadership and from the no.
!sponsibilities OF definite constructive
politics and from the strain of parti-
san struggle. He is ut his best be-
tween campaigns. He does not rise.
he sinks under their pressure. Lest
this be deemed merely a vague gen
crafty. an instance may be cited from
the recent campaign which MIR. Bryan
may very well in his calmer after
thought keenly regret and wish to
have forgiven and forgot. This Ia his
attack upon Gov. Hughes. Both on
the stump and i'm the pages OF the
Commoner Mr. Bryan sought to weak.
en- Gov. Hughes influence I'm the cam.
paign by charges and innuendoes
which are discreditable either to his
much Wanted sincerity or to his In.
telligence. or TO both. In the Com
moner the contributions OF New York
multimillionairest to the campaign fund
of the first Hughes campaign were
printed with the suggestion that n
man supported from such sources
could not be but influenced I'm his Of
fetal duty thereby. A little rudimen-
tary insight into human character
would convince any man that Gov.
Hughes is of the somewhat rare puri-
tanic type which would inevitably he
inclined against rather than for these
men because of their assistance
AS. Mr.. Bryan is gifted with more
than rudimentary insight into human
character. this aspect of his attitude
towards Gov. Hughes takes on an ex-
ceedingly unlovely color.-Chicago

Mr.. BrYan,s Defense.

The day after election everyone ex-
pected Mr.. Bryan TO attribute his de.
feat to the use of money against him
But Mr.. Bryan was slow to speak
and 1t took him more weeks than
one before he could get the accusation
to issue from his throat with his ac-
customed force. Now, however, seiz-
ing the occasion of a Jackson day
banquet at Omaha, he has listed all
the different forms In which wealth
assailed him: The large campaign
fund, the army OF employees salaried
by the government. the newspapers
held in chains against the people,
and in general the "coercive power of
concentrated wealth."
With three such defeats as he has
suffered IL is absurd for Mr.. Bryan
even In slight measure to intimate
that the elections have been bought
against him. 1t Is absurd for him
to charge that dangerous massed
wealth, inimical TO the welfare of the
state. has defeated him. If he must
attribute his successive downfalls to
wealth, he can only do 1t by defining
wealth I'm that sense in which 1t is
nearly equivalent to welfare. IF
wealth has discarded him, 1t is that
wealth which is largely distributed
through the mass OF the population.
and without which our country would
be UNNECESSARILY worse off than It
would be without Mr.. Bryan, valued
citizen in many ways as that gen.
tleman is.
