CONCERNING GREEN PEPPERS
Mrs. Blank Discovers That They Must
Not Be Handled with Bare
Hands.

Mrs. Blank had small place in the
country, and one of the most success
full crops were green peppers. AS fall
| approached she soon found that unless
she made some use of her peppers
they would be frozen on the vines, so
she looked round among all her recipe
books and found that good pickle
might be made of the peppers, seeded
and chopped up fine. So she gath
cred them in and started on her
work.
She began by cutting open the pep
pers and taking out the seeds, and
after about five minutes of this she
felt her hands begin to burn. She
stopped handling the peppers. All
this occurred about nine o'clock in the
morning. and by $50 the burning SEN
sation became so violent that she
was unable to stand the pain. She
sent for doctor, and he said that
her hands were as badly burned as if
she had put them in fire, and that the
only relief he could suggest was to
hold her hands in a basin of cold
water. So poor Mrs. Blank obeyed
his orders and kept her hands in
water until $3.50 o'clock the following
morning.
The misfortune Of the amateur cook
may save others the same trouble.
Peppers are very difficult to handle,
and should never be touched with the
bare hands. If they must be cut M.
wear rubber gloves or else use kniie
and fork, so that the oil cannot get
into the pores of the skin.
By the way, if Mrs. Blank wanted
TO Keep the peppers she would have
done just as well had she spread
them out on the cellar floor. Ar
ranged this way. they keep wonder
fully well all winter long.

Pineapple and Watermelon Preserve

Peel and dice a pineapple. then dice
as much watermelon rind as will
make a third of the pineapple by
weight For every pound of the
mixed fruit allow a pound of sugar.
Add enough water to the sugar TO
make rich syrup, and when it boils
add the fruit. Cook for about three
quarters of an hour-less if the pieces
seem tender-put into cans and seal.
Cooked in this way the watermelon
absorbs so much of the flavor of the
pineapple that it is hard to discrim-
mate between them.

Squadron to Leave Oct.
Goth for New Orleans

According to the plan, which is stlll
subject to change, the squadron will
leave Hampton Roads on October 20,
arriving at New ORLEANS about five
days later. The trip could be made
in less time than that, but there Is
no necessity for faster travel.
The dispatch of that squadron At
this time is of particular interest, be-
cause of the fact that the Swift board )
report on navy reorganization, which
is believed TO contain recommends
ton that the New Orleans yard be
closed, was handed to Secretary Mey-
er today. one Of the grounds on
which the closing has heretofore been
recommended is insufhciency OF water
at the Pass and swiftness OF current
in the river in front of the yard
Last spring the bureau chiefs OBJ
jected to sending the Mississippi I'D
the river on the ground that there
was danger in attempting entrance
through the Pass, also that the cur
rent was so strong the Mississippi
might be swung around broadside TO
the current.

that Mayor Grinstead is ineligible.
Judge O'DOheTty states that the

is without jurisdiction in the matter
Of Mayor GTinstead's eligibility; that
being a matter for the legislature

MICCOSUKIE IS
NOW DRYING UP
BEAUTIFUL BODY OF WATER IN
LEON COUNTY is FAST DISAP-
FEARING FOR SOME UNAc-
EQUITABLE REASON.
Special to the Journal.


Tallahassee, Oct. 1.-THE people of
Leon county are very much interested
just now in Lake Miccosukie, a once
beautiful sheet of water, some twenty
miles long, in the north and north
eastern part of the county.
For some inexplicable reason, the
lake is almost dried up. even the
Basin" a deep Sink-hole in the
northeastern end, now being about
twenty feet below the average
height of Its water line.
Tradition says that. when ''Old
Hickory" was doing things" among
the red men of Florida to make him
self famous, he tried to perpetuatG
the memory of his deeds by carving
his name on a ledge of rock which
projected out into the waters OF the
Basin. At this time the water was
even lower than now, and the rock
lay bare in the shadow of the
Bluff" towering some sixty feet
above. With Jackson there were sew
eral of his followers, grandfatheTs
and great grandfathers of men now
living in this county, who also carved
their names alongside that Of their
ilIustrious commander. These names
can be seen now a few inches below
the water, and 1t is thought that in
a few days they will again stand out
above the fast receding water line.
The Basin is teeming with flsh-f1sh
alive and swimming, and fish dead
and floating.
Crowds of people drive out to the
lake to see the phenomenon OF the
disappearing waters, and to read Old
Hickory's name and the names Of
his pioneer followers carven in the
imperishable and Ionghidden rock.

TWO CONVISTED
MURDERERS HANGED

Wilkes Barre, Pa, Oct 1.-two
convicted murderers, Thomas Willis,
a negro, and Stanley Nazarko, a Slav,
were hanged today in the Luzerne
county prison here.
Nazarko's wife came to the jail
yesterday with a man she intends 70
marry and requested permission to
witness the hanging. Although the
condemned man was willing that the
wife and her future husband should
see him die, the sheriff forbade IT.
Nazarko yesterday handed to his
wife, in the presence Of her intended
second husband and a priest, a will,
in which Nazarko bequeathed her his
savings of $1,000.
NazaTko deserted his wife and two
children in Russian Poland, ten years
ago. He killed a woman here with
whom he had been living.
