A Quaint Cookbook.

Amid the horrors Of the siege Of
Paris In 1871 one Cadol found time to
issue book Of recipes for the prepare
ton Of the strange fare to which the
city was reduced. ''Our stOmachs are
turned into natural history museums"
he wrote. but we must make the best
Of circumstances and render our food
as palatable as we can" So house
wives were instructed how to disguise
the flesh of dogs. horses, asses. rats
and mice and were shown that. despite
the old adage. one can make an omelet
without breaking eggs. The recipe
for an eggless omelet was as follows:
Soak an army biscuit in sugared wa
ter favored with orange flower. chop
finely and spread on a hot dish. pow
der well with sugar and then pour over
and set light to a liberal helping OF
rum" With eggs at SO a dozen and
rum at but little more than its normal
price, this palatable imitation Of an
"omelette au rhum" became q most
popular dish.

Chief of Police Dudley is con-

But the owner of Sass the H."

and he wants the dog back. And
now the police are again looking
for a young bull dog. Anyone
desiring to bring honor and glory
upon himself in police annals, to
say nothing of the brilliant pub

fall heir to thereby, need only
donate a qualified bull pup to the

CLAIMS ELECTION
OF OTTO BARNARD

nearly one hundred thousand.
Leader Murphy of Tammany is
not making any statements. While
he believes that Gaynor will be
elected mayor, he is uncertain
about the rest of his ticket.
One Tammany leader has pre-
dicted that the Tammany candid
ates for the board OF estimate will
be defeated. He said:
"Gaynor will be elected. We
will carry the boroughs of Man
haitian, the Bronx and Queens,
but we will lose Brooklyn and
Richmond. This will give the
board OF estimate to the fusion
ists."
When this statement was called
to the attention of Murphy he
said It was absurd and professed
to believe that the entire Tam
many ticket will win.
