NOVEL AND DAINTY SANDWICHES

Every hostess, when entertaining.
racks her brain for something that
will be a little different from chose
served by her friends. When prepar-
Ing the sandwiches why not use rancy
cutters instead of the squares and tn
angles which have been the thing 30
long? Some will say, there Is so
much waste In using cutters" That
Is true, but those scraps need not be
wasted, and sandwiches OF this KIND
are 80 much more attractive, a point
that every entertainer strives for.
The greater the variety OF cutters
you possess the more stylish VIII Do
your refreshments.
The hardest part Of making SAND
wiches is in cutting the bread thin:
enough. The more waferlike' the
more dainty they are,
; 70 make especially nice sandwiches,
the crust OF the bread Is removed.
The butter used Tor spreading sand
witches should be creamed until soft
and wa1y. Nuts chopped and mixed
with cream cheese will make most de-
lectable sandwich filling. .
When meat Is used 1t Is better TO
chop 1t and add the desired seasonings-
and milk or cream to make It OF the
consistency to spread.
Spanish peppers pounded to a paste
and mixed with cream cheese is an
other tasty combination.
An excellent sweet sandwich Is ma
pie sugar grated and mixed with
chopped almonds. or marmalade : or
preserved gingered pears make a nice
filling, chopped fine. a}
Fish pounded to a paste and mixed
with a little salad dressing makes
good sandwiches. n
Preserved ginger chopped and
thinned to spread with some OF p
strip is another favorite with those
who are fond of ginger.

located in the west, working in Indian

of that district, and In 1894 was trans

Hadley was shot and killed while sit

men had congregated in front Of the

Despite the pleas Of Jailer Rabbitson
they advanced on the calaboose. and,
throwing him to one side broke the doors
down. The terrified negroes were hustled
out at the point of guns and marched
outside the town. There they were quick

DIsMANTLING RIVER QUEEN.
Boiler of Old Steamer Being BE.
moved From the Hull.

The work of removing the parts of the
boiler of the old steamer River Queen,
which was destroyed by fire at this city
early in the past spring. is progressing
at the 10th street wharf Of the American
Ice Company, but it will be two or three
weeks before this is completed and the
hull stripped Of everything OF value.
It was stated several weeks ago that
the hull of the old steamboat would be
converted into a freight barge, for lum-
Der and coal carrying on chesapeake bay
and its tributaries, but 1t Is now said this
disnosition of the boat Is doubtful. and
like the steamers Samuel j. Pen al and 10
r. V. Arrowsmith she may be taken to
the flats and burned in order to get out
the metal.
The River Queen. when she came to the
potomac from northern waters, about
twenty-five years ago. was a fast and
popular boat in the excursion business
and was on the route between this city
and Mount Vernon. She has the distinc-
ton of having carried President Lincoln
from this city to City Point. on the James
river, during civil war times.

Private Debts. |

DR.. Luis NJ. Droga, author Of the much.
talked-of Drago doctrine opposing the
employment OF armed force I'm the col
lection Of private debts. will deliver q
series OF lectures on international law
before the universities of the United
States during the coming fall. according
to dispatches received from Buenoo
Aires.
DIR. Drago. the cable said, would leave
Argentina for Europe in May and Arrive
in this country some time in October.
He Informed Ernesto Bosch. Argentine
minister Of foreign affairs. Saturday OF
his intention to lecture here.
DIR. Drago comes to the United States
at the instance of the Carnegie endow-
ment for International peace The en-
dowment has appropriated a sum OF
money for the exchange of American and
foreign professors. DR.. Inazo Nttobe OF
Japan, now lecturing in the United
States, and DR.. Drago are two Of the ex-
change professors provided through this
fund.
An exchange OF kilograms, inviting DR..
Drago to the United States and his ac-
ceptance, is SO far the only correspond.
ence on the subject. No program for DIR.
Drago's visit has been arranged. He will
probably lecture before all the Important
Was Foreign Minister.
DIR. Drago was himself the Argentine
minister of foreign affairs for many
years, and was acting in that capacity
under President Roca when he drew up
the state paper which carried his name
into every civilized country Of the world.
1t was on the occasion OF the simultane-
GUS appearance of the coast OF venexueia
Of an Italian. a German and an English
warShip, each come to collect private
debt owed by the nation to individuals In
their respective countries.
Though in no way concerned In the
hostile demonstration. DR.. Drago formu-
lated an addition TO the Monroe Doc
trine pointing out that the collection or
private loans by military means implied
a potential occupation of territory. and
was therefore at variance with the spirit
Of the American policy. He submitted
the brief 20 Gen. Roca-
The president Of Argentina displayed
little interest in t-se document and hand
ed 1t back to its author when finished
with the comment that IL was Qutxotic.
After q brief argument, which failed to
make the president see the value or the
doctrine, DIR. Drago submitted his res1g-
nation. His resignation was not ac-
copied.
Document Sent Here.
The troublesome document was sub
mitted to Gen. Mitre. considered one OF
Argentina's leading statesmen. He adj
vised that it be forwarded Immediately
to the Argentine minister Mt Washing
ton 1t was handed to Secretary OF
State Hay. officially acknowledged by
him, and soon appeared In the newspa-
pers all over the world. Nearly every
South American country published its in
dorsement of the doctrine.
The argument employed by DR.. Dra9o
was that since the creditors knew that
the finances OF the small South american
countries were limited when they fur
nished the loans they should not attempt
to recover by force. but should bring the
erring nation to trial before an interna-
tional tribunal.
