CHICAGO NEWS IN BRIEF

Lasinsky, 437 S. Halsted street,
last night, stripped the store of
$500 worth of furniture and rugs,
and carted the loot away.
Night Waterman saw the
wagon at the store door, but
thought some one was moving.
He was right.
The street Car men have APP
pealed to Mayor Harrison to help
prevent a strike.
Last night the union officials
sent Harrison telegram asking
him to use his good offices toward
getting the traction companies to
grant them a decent living wage.
This action was taken only
after the traction company Off
Gals had tried to put the union
off.
Yesterday the officials of the
union presented to the companies
note of the overwhelming vote
of the men to strike.
Pres. Roach of the Chicago
Railway Co. and Pres. Busby of
the Chicago City Railways Co.
both gave evasive answers.
Both asked for time in which
"to consider the proposition"
This action was regarded most
unsatisfactory by the men. It
looks too much like the company
officials are only delaying until
such time as they can import a
sufficient number of strikebreak-
ers.
Pres. Mahon Of the street car

WIS IN BRIEF
long as the traction company off
Gals wished.
That is what moved the union
officials to send the telegram to
Mayor Harrison.
The city is vitality interested in
the street car situation, even out
side of what a strike would mean.
to the business interests.
The city draws down SIS per
cent of the gross earnings of the
street car company.
While the city is drawing down
this enormous amount of money
the street car employees are being
underpaid.
So the street car men felt they
had a right to appeal to Mayor
Harrison.
Harrison just now is at his
summer home in upper Michigan.
He has not yet answered the tele-
gram of the union officials ask
ing him to help them out.
Many of the street car men are
doubtful if Harrison ever will an
swer the telegram.
In fact, they suspect that Har-
rison "beat it" out of town the
minute he saw there was a pros
.pect of trouble in the street car
situation. -.
Harrison has pulled stunts like
that before. He always tries to
play both ends against the mid
die.
Many of the street car men,

CEREAL CAKES

Ever since the time, which, per-
haps you will all remember, when
the dainty little oatmeal waters won
such instant favor, experiments in
the same direction have been made
with other cereals, until now there
are to be found recipes for using
almost all the well-known cereal
preparations in the making of these
delicate and wholesome trifies. As
no especial skill is required, they have
almost everything III their favor
quickness in making, cheapness in
materials used, and above all, whole
someness. For the child or for the
convalescent, as an accompaniment
there is nothing better.
SO healthful are these waters that
recipes for their making are included
In the manuscript cook book OF most
trained nurses.
One point to be carefully borne in
mind in following out the subse-
quent recipes is that most of these
little cakes bnust be spread to a
wafer-like thinness. This is best
done by means of a broad knife
dipped in cold water. A tni bak-
ing sheet is the ideal thing on which
to cook these waters. Whatever is
used, it must be we'll creased and
the batter dropped in spoonfuls, WIDE
ly separated.
The use Of food chopper is to be
recommended for the chopping of
such cereals as are in large grains.

Cereal Waters.

One-third cupful butter, two table,
spoonsful sugar, three-quarters cupful
wheat preparation, one-half cuptul Of
milk, a little salt, -four enough to
mold. Add the milk to the creamed
sugar and butter, then the wheat.
Cut with cooky cutter and bake in
a slow oven.

Lace Cakes.
One cupful rolled oats, one egg,
one-half cupful of light brown sugar,
a tablespoonful of soft butter, a lit

to the beaten egg and then mix other
ingredients and add. Drop in spoon
fuls on a creased baking sheet and
spread very thin. Bake in moder-

FOREIGN NEWS


Toxic, August 8.-Alarmed at
the growth of labor unrest through
out Japan, the Mikado's advisors are
urging the speedy passage by the
Diet of an amendment to the fac
tory law designed, as it is expressed
here, to prevent future outbreaks
of dangerous thought" By the
amendments provisions, large man
ufacturers are required to set aside
d percentage of their profits for
their employees in addition to their
regular wages. The employees will
receive this money, however, only
upon completion of specified terms of
service. The government has had
much trouble with workingmen of
late and there can be no question
that Japan is on the eve of an i'm
portant labor uprising.
