Bayberry Candles

Having seen two calls for bayberry candles l send in my mothers way. Gather the berries after a hard frost A bushel will make a small lot. Boil them all day and let them stand all night to ool. Take off the fat and mix with one third of beef suet that has been rendered and strained. Without the beef suet they will be too hard to use. The berry grows everywhere near the salt water. The water they are boiled in is good to bathe in. If boiled down with mutton tallow it makes fine ointment for rheumatism.

It is not known whether MT. Burnett will give up his ehairmanship of the im- migration committee to accept that Of public buildings and grounds or not, but 1t is quite evident that the later commit tee is going to play an important part in the next administration, either in making big appropriations for public buildings or refusing them. There will be a great de- mand for postoffice buildings all over the country, and many members of Congress favor more liberal appropriations for fine postoffice buildings in their districts than for any other public use.

Burnett's Big Responsibility

Now that the democrats are coming into power, 1t is somehow expected that they will 'open the pork barrel'' and will be generous with appropriations for not only rivers and harbors, but also for public buildings. John l.. Burnett of the Sev- enth Alabama district is now the ranking democrat on the committed of public buildings and grounds, or will be after March 4, as Representative Sheppard of Texas, the present chairman, will at that time succeed Senator Bailey in the Sem ate. Representative Burnett has been acting chairman of the committee for some time past.

Tn" Amalganated Oil company management, of katalla, is in high ,glee over a strike week ago that has given 40 barrels of oil. It was struck at a depth of $50 feet.
 It is the intention to bore deeper, and there is every prospect of i'm

 Manager Manson is also run ming rotary drilling outfit on another excellent prospect from which he is already getting a good flow of oil. It is the intention tO increase the capacity of the re- finery and to actively push the oil development from now on. The company is employing about thirty men and many thousands of dol

ANOTHER STORY
 0F THE ERUPTION
A TRADER SAYS THAT MT. SEV- ENoFSkY DID BUSINESS
 IMMENSE VENT.

Charles Broudry. the trader at the head of Cold Bay says that the lernfption attributed to Mt. Katmai was in reality caused by Mt. Seven ofsky. Katmai and a new crater op- 'ened between the two, the later be- ing the largest, coming up out of q creek bed, extending two miles and behcl1ing forth fire all the time and is still active. Broudry is about eighteen miles from the scene and Is thus enabled to give first hand information.
 The reason that no one at Katmai was killed is given by him as fol- lows: "The men were away fishing at Mt. Douglas and Old Katmai and none but the women and children and old men were in the village, but the quakes were so severe and ire Quent the natives took to their bi- darkas and made for Cold Bay and had just arrived at the station when the eruption proper took place."
 For weeks he was compelled to feed them and no effort was made by the cutter to find out If he or the natives were liv'ns.

 PLURALITY.

Portland. Sept. 10.-The Republi- cans have regained the state of Maine by a slender plurality after a hard-fought campaign. Haines. Re publican, defeats Governor Plaisted, Democrat, by plurality of four thousand. The legislature will have a slgiht Republican majority, enough to elect Congressman Burleigh to the Senate over Senator Gardner R. Paine. They have also regained one congressional district lost in 1910. The smallness of the plurality is a disappointment to friends of the ad- ministration.
