cornmeal, one part bran and one OF
scraps, mixed with milk when OBJ

duck In one week fit for the most

for half the cornmeal and claim
better results, Killing and picking
is simple and no loss need be sus-

when dry picking or scalding. The
proper time to kill and best time to
pick is when the first full coat of
feathers has fully matured. which

THE ABORN OPERA co.
Will Present The Bohemian Girl Satur
day Night


The great success of the Aborn Eng
fish Grand Opera Company in the
larger cities of America during the
past ten years has been first, of all
by the use of our familiar language
in their presentations instead Of for
eign tongues second, by their policy
of selecting the best American talent
available and maintaining an evenly
balanced and highly efficient cast in
stead of featuring one or two expen-
sive stars of big reputation surround
ed by mediocrity, and third, by giving
only such operas as can be appre-
ciated and enjoyed by the general
run of music lovers, whether highly
accomplished musicians or merely
possessing a natural "ear for music. !"
Such operas have been chosen for
their engagement at the Colonial
Theatre Saturday afternoon and
evening. October %. 1t is almost
needless : to expound the beautiful
qualities of both the musical and lit
erary character of THE Bohemian
Girl, /" which will be the offering for
the afternoon performance, as it has
ever been the most popular of all
English classics ever since Bale gave
it to the world early in the last CEN
fury. The musical pendant gravely
describes it with such uncomplimen-
tary remarks as popular, " appeal
ing to the crowd" ETC., but in spite
of his many epithets the very tune
fulness which he berates is the quail
ity that has made this one of the
greatest favorites of all times, and
the general music loving public who
go to the opera to enjoy and not to
study the score, continue to appre-
ciate the genius that inspired such
creations as THE Heart Bowed
Down, Il Dreamt Dwelt in Mar
bic Halls. " "Then You'll Remember
Me, ;" The Fair Land of Poland, +"
bliss Forever Past, " "The Gypsy
Bride" the charming quartette of the

bers in The Bohemian Girl.

There is a strange rumor that

Last year a British army. officer,
who had served under Macdonald for
many years and knew him intimately,
made journey of exploration into
the interior of China, into the heart
of that mysterious country, practi-
cally unknown to foreigners, which
lies to the west of the Great Wall.
He arrived at an obscure Chinese
village on the eve of the grand
maneuvers of one of the divisions
of that army which is being train

the empire from Japanese invasion
and to bolster up the lettering for
tunes of the dynasty.
