WOMAN IS DouGHNUT QUEEN
Noted Maine Buttermaker Fries More
Than $500 Luscious Cakes In
Thirty-Two Days.

Bangor, Me.-Mrs. Lizzie Tarr Of
Brunswick, noted as a good butter
maker, has gained a fame. In 80
days, recently, she cooked more than
5000 doughnuts. She also fed. and
cared for Is children and did the
homework for herself and husband.
Her best recipe is for molasses dough-
nuts, and is as follows:
One cupful of sour milk, one-half
cup New Orleans molasses, n even
teaspoonful of ginger, one tablespoon.
full of salt, one teaspoonful of soda,
one egg, four cups of flour and a dash
of nutmeg.
1.-THE frying is the most important"
she says. you must not get the lard
too hot, or the doughnuts will brown
on the outside before they are fully
cooked through. When you have put
them in the fat they will sink to the
bottom and the lard, must be hot
enough so they will rise quickly to
the top. If you can get the real, old
New Orleans molasses it will give q
wonderfully rich, light color to the
doughnuts."

Police Ho.xed by Clover Thief.

Police Hoaxed by Clover Thief.
Tae police of Essen, Germany, are
searching anxiously for a man who
has hoaxed them in a most fragrant
manner. Going with a hand-cart to
the central police Offices, where about
fifty special officers are engaged, the
man said he had been sent by the
electric supply company to remove
the bulbs, and that they would be ex.
changed for new ones before dusk.
He was allowed to take nearly 200
bulbs. and several of the officers &C.
tually helped him to remove them.
When darkness arrived and the new
bulbs were not forthcoming the police
rang up the electric light company to
remind them of the omission. The
reply was startling and left the police
very much in the dark" The com
pany declared they had sent nobody
for the bulbs, and knew nothing Of
the matter; in fact, only a fortnight
ago they exchanged the old bulbs for
new and more expensive ones. Then
it dawned upon the police that they
had allowed, anu ever assisted a bold
thief 70 make . rich haul from under
their very noses. Nothing has since
been heard Of the thief, and Just now

bulbs in the hearing Of an Essen po.

HUNTER BATTLES WITH BEAR.
Attacked While Dressing Deer Car.
cass in Maine Woods-Bruin Killed
After Fierce Fight.

The Forks, Me.-The fourth man to
be tackled by a bear in the woods
near here recently was Wallace Dur
gin, who had his adventure the other
day near his fathers house. Durgin
had his rife close at hand and he
made short work of dispatching the
brute, but this was not the luck of
Ernest Gubtil of New Vineyard. Gubtil
had been hunting for moose for two
weeks. He dropped a fine buck, and
then placed his rifle against a tree
and began the work of dressing the
carcass.
The hunter, knife in hand, was at
work when suddenly he received a
blow on the left side which sent him
to the ground half . stunned. Gubtil
then found himself graphing with a
black bear, which, when cold that eve
ming, weighed 400 pounds.
By means of rolling and tumblings,
kicking at the bear and warding of
attempts to grapple, Gubtil finally,
with blood streaming from two dozen
bad scratches, reached his rifle. By
exerting all his remaining strength
Gubtil dropped his muzzle against the
bears breast as the brute rose and
pulled the trigger.
The expansion bullet killed the bear
almost instantly. At the moment of
the discharge the bear was making a
blow for Gubtil's face, but the claws
dragged against his shoulder.
Gubtil was found, weak from loss OF
blood and unable to proceed to camp,
by Horace Adams, q trapper, who
brought him in. Gubtil was taken to
the farm and a New York doctor at
tended him. Horace Adams killed IA
bears this fall and others have killed
II. The local hunters never knew
bears tt be so %ferocious before. The
reason for it is ascribed to the lack Of
wild berries.

kUBIEs. BOUGHT IN SUNLIGHT
Peculiar Methods of Oriental Mer.
misunderstanding Out Brillianey
Of the Gems.

Oriental merchants have business
methods which would arouse the won
der of the American storekeeper. Per.
haps the most peculiar methods are
associated with the sale of rubies in
Burma.
The. prospective purchaser takes q
seat near a window and has before
him a large copper plate. The sellers
come to him one by one and each emp.
ties upon this plate a little bag of
rubies. The purchaser arranges the
gems all in separate little heaps in
order that he may set a valuation upon
them.
He first divides them into three
grades, according to size. Each of
these groups is again divided into
three other piles, according to color.
and each Of these piles in turn is once
more divided into three groups accord
ing to shape.
Artificial light is never used in the
examination of rubies, the merchants
believing that full sunlight alone is

brilliancy of the gems. All sales must
be made between the hours of 9 a. m.
and 3 p. NJ, and the sky must be clear,
so that nothing can dim the radiance
Of the crimson stones.
The copper plate is brought into
requisition in more ways than one.
The sunlight reflected from it through
the stones brings out with true rubies
a color effect different from that of
spinels or tourmalines, which are thus
readily separated. Many spinels bear
a close resemblance to the ruby, but
this simple test made under the keen
eye of the oriental never fails.
When the various stones have been
segregated the buyer and seller begin
an odd method Of bargaining by signs,
or rather grips, in profound silence.
After agreeing upon the fairness of
the classification they join their right
hands, covered with a handkerchief or
the flap of a garment, and by grips and
pressures understood among all these
dealers they make, modify and accept
proposals of purchase and sale. The
hands are then uncovered and the
prices are recorded.

Poorly Paid German Workers.

The toy makers Of Sonneberg are
among the worst paid workpeople in
Germany. It often happens that the
earnings of a Sonneberg workman
and his family, working 16 hours a
day. do not exceed $40 a week.
About three years ago there was an
exhibition of home industries in Ber-
lin. where articles from Sonneberg
were displayed, the making of which
was paid for at the rate of four cents
an hour.
