FINE BREAKFAST DISH
MOST ApPETlziNo WAY or PRE-.
PAIRING sAUsAGEs.
Cooked In Methods Described, Any
Lover Of These Deleotabls Nor
sells May Partake Of Them
With Enjoyment.


In vain does the cry Of Socrates
come to us, down the ages" Beware
Of foods that persuade you to eat
though not hungry, and Of liquors that
prevail with you to drink though not
thirsty"
a breakfast Of sausages. wheat
cakes and fragrant coffee is all that
is needed to make us forget the hen
pecked sage's warning
Here are ways Of cooking sausages
so all lovers OF the delectable morsels
may eat them safely.
Instead Of frying sausages, put them
to cook in enough boiling water to al
most cover. Add no fat. Simmer
gently until the water is evaporated.
Enough grease will now be rendered
from the meat to fry them, and the
casing will be unbroken. Lift tho
links from the frying pan and roll in
-four. Fry until the coating is crisp
and brown
The flour prevents the sausages
from breaking open and does ont al
low the rendered grease to be reab-
sorbed- If a little ground sage be
mixed with the -four, the flavor will
be improved.
The new method Of paper-bag cook
cry Is excellent for cooking sausage
cakes. Shape the cakes. place in bags,
press out the air, and cook in hot oven
fifteen minutes. Open the bottom OF
the bag and drain out the fat from the
pork. Serve on hot platter.
Broiled sausages with rice give a
well-balanced dish for a wintry days
breakfast Place small link sausages
on the broiler with dripping pan be-
meath, broil slowly, and serve around
a mound Of creamed rice.
Sausages with baked creamed pota-
toes-To every pound Of bulk sau-
sage meat add an ounce Of ground
mived herbs good mixture to make
and keep on hand for such season as
this IL two ounces Of ground sage, a
fourth Of an ounce Of cayenne pepper,
one ounce OF thyme, one ounce Of ma
ioram. and one Of celery salt Shape
into cakes and fry for five minutes.
FIJI baking dish with diced potatoes,
cover with cream, lay the sausage
cakes on top, and bake in hot oven
fifteen minutes. or until the cream is
absorbed and the meat a good color,
Where sausage is liked but cannot
be eaten on account of its richness,
It may be made at home and mixed
with lean beef or veal in the proper
ton most approved. Two parts lean
meat to one part pork will give a mix
ture In which the pork flavor will still
predominate
Homemade sausage is much in fa'
vor, since the commercial product all
contains filler" presumably some
cereal or stale bread. The food-chop
per now found in every Kitchen does
the grinding as we'll as the butchers
and the particular housekeeper has
the satisfaction Of knowing Just what
the Ingredients Of the sausage are.

MAKE LIVING BY THEIR WITS
American Adventurers Who Have Got
Wealthy Through Shady Deals
In South America.

Z Ever hear of Jim Dugan Of Curacao?
Well. Jim started revolution in Cen
trial America some years ago, and was
put out. He landed in Curacao with q
stew and a IS gold piece. With the
money he bought a lottery ticket. and
won q prize. While he still had the
money man who owned saloon,
and who was looking for a sucker.
sold out to him. But Jim has flourish
ed. He got hold Of seal belonging
to an American life insurance COM
pany, and he stamps his letters with
that. and calls himself the Irish con-
sui. When was in to see Jim this
time found that everything passed
as currency over his bar. He has
,drawerful Of such things as false
teeth and glass eyes, and one morn
Ing I saw man come In and ask for
liquor and then calmly take out his
eye and put it on the counter.
But in Buenos Aires there lives and
operates an American who Is the pro-
totype Of J. Rufus Wallingford. He
makes specially Of turning out old
masters and selling them at fancy
prices to the wealthy Argentinians,
who like to blow their money for
works of art. This chap got hold
of a Frenchman who can paint, and
he does the actual work, and they
dry them with electric fans. When
was there the electric fans were play
ing on three Van Dykes. There was an
elderly woman. a bit daft, who fancied
she was stuck on the president OF
Argentina. What does the American
do but get hold of man who knows
the old lady. and cause him to per
suade her that the president Is par
tial to Van Dykes. Soon she gives
the American an order for a painting,
and he collects the sum Of $4,000,
of which the go-between gets $1,000
and the artists $500. The last report
I had from him was to the effect: You
ask about the nutty old lady? !:
am getting afraid she might rub some
OF the paint of that old master, and
this would affect my artistic sensibili-
ties" s.s-.zs
This chap has got hold Of all sorts
of concessions. When I first knew
him, by the way. he was colonel in
the Nicaraguan army. One OF his
most successful ventures was to start
a watch club, in which you pay one
dollar for initiation, and then run the
chances Of getting watch. Well, the
American showed . high municipal
oniclal In Buenos Aires that In a
watch club there is pretty big per.
centage for whoever is running It,
with the result that 10000 policemen
and other government employees were
ordered to become members.

that they would suffer for it. But 1t
all shows the horrible plight OF poll.
tics in this country and Is a disgrace
to the nation. How the London
daiIies and weeklies will exult at
these revelations! How especially
will the Saturday Review rejoice at
a Justification of almost every fling
1t has made at American corruption!
Can anything be said in reply? Very
little. We can only construct dia-
bolical plot by Archbold, Penrose, ct
al, to ruin Mr. Roosevelt and the
Progressive cause. There are very
few things to justify such theory.
Among these Is the death OF MT.
Bliss and the fact that his books as
treasurer Of the committee were oe-
stroyed by him: so that any accusa-
ton whatever could be made and no
proof of his falsity could be pro
duced. OF course this argument Will
apply as well to the other side OF the
case. Naturally the Standard OH peo-
pie are furious at Roosevelt for MIS-
prosecution OF the trust and would
do almost anything to checkmate his
ambition to be president again, but
that they would devise such plot Is
hard to believe. If we inject MT.
Penrose into the affair. we may say
that his $3,0O0,00o story about the
Progressive campaign this year Is so
absurd that it is difficult to credit any
OF his charges. On the other hand,
Roosevelt's relations with Hartman
during this campaign were such as to
make 1t probable that he welcomed
contributions. We know that he
asked Hartman to help. in the New
York state campaign Of that year.
And it was no worse to ask Hartman
than 1t was to ask Archbold. More
over the distinction between state and
national campaign funds Is mythical.
The burden OF proof is decidedly on
the colonel. He ought at once to
produce some proof. Let him testify
himself. and especially let him pro-
duce Mr.. Cortelyou. Then we shall
still have an unsolved question but
the burden may not seem 80 heavy
against the ex-president.

CHAPTER xxxll,.

A Crisis at the court-House.
Just at daybreak Yancy was reused
by the pressure OF hand on his
shoulder, and opening his eyes saw
that the Judge was bending over him.
"Dress!" he said briefly. There's
every prospect OF trouble-get your
rifle and come with mel"
Yancy noted that this prospect Of
trouble seemed to afford the Judge q
pleasurable sensation; indeed, he had
quite lost his former air Of somber
and suppressed melancholy.
Il let you sleep. thinking you need
ed the rest the judge went on. But
ever since midnight we've been on the
verge OF riot and possible bloodshed.
They've arrested John Murrell-it's
claimed he's planned servile rebel
lion! A man named Hues, who had
wormed his way into his confidence,
made the arrest. He carried Murrell
into Memphis. but the local magis-
trate, inundated. most likely, de-
clined to have anything to do with
holding him. In spite OF this, Hues
managed to get his prisoner lodged in
jail, but along about nightfalls the SIT
uation began to look serious. Folks
were swarming into town armed to
the teeth, and Hues fetched Murrell
across country to Raleigh

EXPOSES THE TARIFF FRAUD
American company's Offer Of Steel
Rails to Manchester, England, 10
Illuminating.

Recently the city OF Manchester,
England, wanted steel rails for its
roads. The contract was not large
one, but when 1t was advertised the
bidding for 1t was sharp and bitter.
Manchester is In the iron and steel
district Of England. and In position
to command the lowest price on the
domestic product.
When the bids were opened, how
ever, 1t was found that an American
concern. the Lorain Steel company OF
Johnstown, Pa, had made the lowest
offer. In round figures. the Lorain
company would sell for $51 1000 what
it's English rivals demanded SIS. 900
for.
The American company was pre-
pared to manufacture the rails, pay
freight and handling to the Atlantic
seaboard, pay freight and handling by
sea to England. and again pay freight
and handling to Manchester, and still
make profit on its sale At nearly
ten per cent. under the British price.
And yet, In the face Of such show
ing as this, the stand pat Republican
still maintains that the present tarth
on Yteel rails is absolutely essential
to the prosperity Of the industry IN
this country. The steel business is
still 20 him an infant industry, even
though it can go into the heart OF
Britain and win contracts in competi-
ton with hard-headed, close-calculat-
Ing manufacturers Of the tight little
isle.
AS it is with STEEL SO It Is with q
number Of other products OF our man
ufacturing plants, and with much OF
our raw material. Some day the Amer
lean citizen will wake to the fact thaf
he has been swindled by the tariA
monxers who have fattened on hia
toll. and then the day Of reckoningI
will come.

Army saber.

Omcers OF the war department are
giving much attention to the sabsr
question. in connection with the
recommendations Of the cavalry
equipment board on that subject. The
ordnance department has manufac-
tured samples not only Of the saber
recommended by the quipment board.
but also OF several other types. The
samples represent the slightly curved
saber advised by the board. the field
artillery saber with more curve, and
several types Of straight swords or
sabers. The question Is a troublesome
one, particularly in view Of the fact
that some officers prefer the curved
slashing saber aud others straight
thrusting piece. Some OF the designs
include an improved hand guard that
is considered much superior to other
designs, in that it affords greater pro
lection. The ordnance officers In get
ting up tentative designs of sabers
and swords have consulted num-
Der Of swordsmanship experts, among
them Capt. Herman J. Koehler. mas

envy. and Civil Engineer Andrew G..

Europe's Rose Gardens.

Though the rose is grown for trade
in many parts of Europe, its culture
for commercial purposes is now prin-
.cipally monopolized by the vast rose
gardens Of Grasse in France and Of
Kasanlik in Bulgaria-the rose gar
dens Of Europe, par excellence and
the manufactures produced from
them supply in q great measure the
markets Of the world. Here acres Of
roses take the place Of corn. vines
and orchards Of other lands, and some
idea OF the French trade may be OBJ
tanned when we learn that the gar,
dens Of Grasse, Cannes and the neigh
boring villages yield nearly 2,650.000
pounds OF roses annually; on some
days 40 many an $50 tons OF blossoms
are picked In the province Of the.
Alpes Maritimes. The beautiful Va
rieties. so much prized by gardeners,
are useless for commercial purposes,
and the only plant used ID the Cab.
