Culinary Mysteries That Bewidsred an EnoIishwoman.
 One moment we were eating ducks eggs whose blackened, lime favored whites indicated that their age was unimpeachable; the next we were grap. bling with sea weeds, macaroni and the slippery sharks fins that eluded our clumsily manipulated sticks. Now we tackled-not without fear-un- known meats and vegetables cooked in sugar, fresh shrimps, mushrooms from Mongolia, young bamboo sprouts, pi- geons' eggs and hundred different foreign tasting messes. Then clean plates were given to us, and bowls of sickly pink sirup, sweet potato and Indian corn cakes of .dusky hue were set before each one. These were only crevice fillers and concluded the first and lighter portion of the repast. Now came the real substantial meal, where In every dish had an accompaniment ot smaller ones. containing gravies. etc., in which to dip the morsel taken from the central bowl.
 There was stewed duck cooked with out salt. roast sucking pig, forcemeat balls and chicken; there were soups of birds nest, of mushroom, of vegetables and of sea slugs. There was grilled fresh water fish. which, according to custom. was helped from the top side only. for the Chinese remembers his servant. And. finally, at the conclu sion the inevitable small bowl of rice and rice water was set before each person.
 After some three hours, with feel Ing of thankfulness that all was over. pipes. cigarettes and tea were served. and it seemed to me that the delicious aroma which rose from the lat.er soothed our senses and almost dis pelled the antpathy that had been growing on us for all things Chinese Mary Moore in London Express.

A Spartan Father,

Recently a first year high school pu- pill handed her history teacher what she evidently considered an exhaustive and final study of Lacedaemonian GUS toms. In it she stated that one Spar tan habit of strengthening youth was to compel the boys to sleep always on beds and thistles.
 The incident reminds one of story that is told of one of the Camerons of Lochiel.
 The chief, when bivouacking with his son in the snow. noticed that the lad had rolled up a snowfall to make a pillow. He thereupon rose and kick ed 1t away, saying sternly, "No ef- feminacy, boy!"-Youth's Companion.

TESTING FIRE CLAY.
The Nest Practical Method Is to Lk.
 eraIly Eat It.

Fire clay has been in use for cen turies. and yet 1 believe the industry Is one which lacks definite laws more than any other, including those which are either modern or ancient and of less prominence You can go to & manufacturer of steel and specify what you want by actual figures or statements and you can check the prod uct by chemical analysis or mechanical tests and thus make sure you get what you need. The producer knows how to combine certain elements and what quantities of various kinds to combine in order to get result at least very closely approaching what you call for, but not so in the fire clay business. In the past the most skilled and highest salaried chemists have been employed to make tests, to promote and carry through investigations on the natural product and to study the workings of certain manufactured and elaborated articles derived therefrom. The result has been. generally speaking. confusion worse confounded. Two professors. working at similar times on brick or clay obtained from the same source and manufactured under exactly equal conditions. have recorded diametrically opposed conclusions. The same scien- lists at different periods have reached vastly varying conclusions when test ing identical qualities and shapes of bricks, so can you wonder if promi nent fire clay manufacturer should ex claim. as l heard one on an occasion after having the above experience. "All tests of fire clay are empirical, and would sooner trust our superintend ent to pick and select his clays in the old fashioned way than pay high fee for highbrow's recommendations? The chief method of testing fire clay by practical man is literally to eat 1t. He can detect grit and sand best by that method. and a good fire clay (free from silica. quartzite or flint clay) is free from grit. His only other personal test is by eHperiment.-En. gineering Magazine.

Dirt is Flying on Double Track.

Several carloads of horses to be employed in the grade work for the the Santa Fe double track were un- loaded at Flagstaff yesterday afternoon and will begin work this morning. Trainmaster Duffield went to Flagstaff yesterday to see that the horses and outfit were properly unloaded.
 There is another outfit, largest on the line, to be unloaded in Williams within a week or ten days. The definite date for the beginning of the work has not yet been determined.
 Men were arriving at Flagstaff on every train during this week and all of them were given work this morning. The men are coming to Williams during the coming week to be on hand when the dirt begins to fly here.
 Supt. Mitchell, who is in charge of the construction will make his head quarters in this city. He has rented a house here and his family will arrive in Williams in a few days. All
 he heads of the construction will bring their families and make their headquarters in this city.-Williams News.

Nelson Group In sradshaws Is Sold.

George P. Harrington, who returned to Prescott, Tuesday, from a business trip to the east, gave out the impor- tant news yesterday that the closing of the deal in the purchase of the Nelson group of mines, in the Brad shaws, had been effected, and ID addi- tion, it was the intention to begin operations immediately. The syndi- cate taking over these mines is in- corporated, and is known as the Nel- son Mining company, being composed of some of the wealthiest residents of Philadelphia, Pa. It is also a close corporation, and heavy payment in cash was made, the total amount in- volved not being made known.
 Iu few days camp will be built, and the installing of hoisting and other machinery to be considered i'm mediately, the purpose of the new organization being to get to work in exploiting the ground as soon as ac- commodations for miners can be ef- fected.
 In the deal are included a group of three mines, the Dividend, Lone Jack and Jack Pot, all of which in years gone by have been opened at various points extensively, and main- ly by tunnels. They are situated less than one mile from the old mill of the Crowned King Mining company, in a northeasterly direction, and enjoy an excellant name in mining circles through the heavy production given when operated by their former owner, the late John Nelson, son-in-law of Mir. Harrington. At that time several were made to the Fl Paso smelters, netting 40S per ton in gold.
 An immense vein is shown through the development, and it is the current belief that the tissure at that point is more than a continuation of the Gladiator War Eagle system, che character of the ores being identical and having the same geological make up. This in itself is said to be the motive that prompted the early closing | of the deal, and in which the big | showing that is made on the belt near by was a strong indication of the merit of the Nelson mines. Mir. Harrington also stated that the purchasing syndi- cate would proceed to patent their interests immediately, anticipating
