Office in the last twenty-six months,
which, I am told, aggregate $3.50,
which they say has been paid for un-

office has been economically and juli-
ciously spent for the welfare OF the
state Of Oklahoma and enables me to
smoke this bunch of Knockers out in
the open, where the people of the state
can learn the truth, and hereafter dirty
nsinuations will be Well understood
BY the public.
q shall, for the benefit Of the whole
public, print true copies of these
charges and every word Of testimony
taken on the subject. When the peo-
pie have read the charges and read the
testimony, have no fear but that the
economy and industry Of my office will
be approved by all people who want

Monkey 40 4 Witness.

A remarkable. story of husband
and wife convicted of murder and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment on the
evidence Of an ape comes from De-
wallis Landing, La. Christopher and
Mamie Starr were attached as per-
formers to James Ackerman's circus
when Ackerman's mutilated body was
found. %ra
Alderman was feeding Scamp, a pet
Himalayan ape, at the time he was
killed. Afterwards when the ape saw
Starr he flew into a terrible rage,
dashing about his cage and shaking
the bars in a fury, refusing to be
quiet, while Starr was in sight, though
previously it had been friendly to
him. :. It repeated the actions when
Starts wife appeared.
There was no direct evidence that
the STAIRS committed the murder, the
ape being the only living witness Of
the tragedy. They were arrested on
suspicion, and when tried the ape was
taken into court. Then it again
showed rage and terror. This, it is
reported, influenced the Jury more
than the circumstantial evidence pro
duced. r

Saxon. SAUSAGE,

Saxon sausage comes to us from
the Germans. Cut six large apples of
fne quality into eight parts, sprinkle
them slightly with sugar and CHINA
mon and let them stand a few min
utes. Meantime put a few currants
on plate, cover them with little
lukewarm water and let them soak
while until about half pound of
sausage has been fried. Then add
the apples and also the currants after
draining. Remove the sausage as
soon as it is done, garnish with the
fruit and make a gravy of the drip
pings after pouring off the grease on
top by adding glass Of Rhine wine
or water and mixing with flour. in the
usual way. BuckWheat cakes taste
particularly good with sausage cooked
IN this manner, and so much fruit is
served with it that it IS not necessary
to have any more at the same meal.

The Spanish breed Of fowls has long
been popular in this country and IN
Europe. Their symmetry Of form,
graceful and proud carriage, as we'll
as beauty Of plumage, have made them
favorites Of poultry fanciers, while
their value as egg producers has placed
them among the most desirable breeds.
Their flesh is Of very good quality.
Their eggs are large and white. larger
than those Of any other breed, It is
claimed, except the la Fleche.
The White Faced Black Spanish is
the most important variety Of this
breed, and It is also the most com
mon. The average weight Of the Black
Spanish male is about seven pounds,
though it sometimes reaches eight; the
hen averages about pound less. This
breed usually weighs more than one
would guess because the fowls are 50

SOME EGG RECIPES
NEW AND OLD METHODS OF
SERVING THEM.
Cooked La Martin, In French Style,
They Make a Delicious Lunch
con Dish-Stuffed Eggs Also
Will be Enjoyed.

Eggs la Martin.-Have heating
shallow baking dish that will hold five
broken eggs without crowding. Melt
teaspoon of butter in a saucepan.
add one heaping teaspoon of flour, and
when well blended add one cup OF
rich milk or thin cream, if you have
it. Then add one-eighth of teaspoon
of salt, four tablespoonfuls of grated
cheese. Stir we'll, remove from fire
and pour into hot baking dish. Then
carefully drop into the mixture five
eggs without breaking the yolks; set
in hot oven and as soon as the
whites are set, remove, Sprinkle a
pinch of salt and a dash of cayenne
on each egg and a little chopped pars.
ley over the whole, and serve at once,
This is a delicious luncheon dish and
easily prepared. It is French dish
and is seldom seen in America.
Eggs en- Filets.-Butter a pan that
may be set in the oven. Mix as many
eggs as needed with spoonful Of
brandy and pinch of salt Pour into
pan and bake five minutes in a hot
oven. Cool and cut in slices and dip

six persons, giving each two halves
Eggs Nova Scotian. Put poached
egg on top Of a fiat Goldfish cake, pour

Feed your pigs often and don't feed
them very much at a time as their
digestive organs cannot manage an
over-feed. Too much feed at once
Is very liable to give them scours. =
Then as the pigs grow older and
larger increase their feed gradually.
Always feed them a well-balanced ra-
ton so that they will make plenty of

If pigs are fed much corn they will
soon get too fat, though little corn
may be fed. They should also be pro
