SIMPLE RECIPE FOR COOKIES
Is Net E~xtravaqant at This Time
When Eggs Are Coming
In Fast.

At this time Of the year, when eggs
are coming in fast in suburban homes
where chickens are kept, the following
recipe for cookies will not seem ex-
trayagant, though 1t calls for five
eggs: Cream two cupalls Of sugar
and a cupful OF butter. Add five well
beaten eggs and a cuDful OF sour milk.
Flavor in any way desired. Stir the
mixture into two cupfuls Of -four, sift-
ed with a scant ~teaspoonful OF soda.
Add enough extra -four to make a bat
ter that can be rolled out and cut In
to cookies. Then bake as usual. A
cheaper rule calls for two eggs beat
en- with a cuprul of sugar. Melt half
a cupful of butter and add to 1t half
a cupful Of milk, n rounded tea.
spoonful of cream OF tartar and half
teaspoonful Of soda. Flavor with
lemon or almond extract and add flour
stuff Client to roll out. Sprinkle with
sugar and bake.

"Amboy Man Refus S the

Refusal of the Democratic nomi-

States by Henry w. Kehoe, recorder
of this city, was the substance of a
bit of valuable information that
reached Chief of Police Patrick j.
Burke yesterday.
Recorder Kehoe, who is at the
Democratic convention in Baltimore,
sent the chief the information. Mr..
Burke had intended to keep il a sec
ret out of respect for Mr.. Kehoe and
how the newspaper men found it out
seems a greater mystery to him than
anything else that has yet occurred
in the history of the police depart

Chief Burke received a postal
card yesterday from the recorder
bearing the following; Il today re-
fused the nomination for president.

awaiting the return of Mr.. Kehoe

THE LURE or THE TEATABLE
No Form of Entertaining Is SO Popu-
lar Among Women as tho Aft
ernoon Tea.

There Is no form Of entertaining so
universally popular as the informal
afternoon tea, when two or three
friends gather over a cup of the bev-
erage that cheers and chat gaily Of
the little intimate things of the hour.
The t~eatable, therefore, Is always q
source of interest to women, and ques-
tons of the making of tea and its &C
cessories Of paramount interest.
Women who pride themselves on
their tea making assert that tea, to be
good, should be made in an earthen
pot, never in Il metal one.
Tea is never good when long stand
ing, but in some cases 1t cannot be
helped. 1t should be poured off the
leaves into another heated pot and
covered with a cosy"
If cream is taken, a less expensive
grade of tea may be used than when
lemon Is preferred.
An old fashioned idea is to drop
a few shavings Of dried orange peel
into the pot in which the tea is made.
Some like this, while others believe
that It spoils the flavor or the bev-
erage.
Bits Of cinnamon and two or three
cloves dropped in are other ways Of
varying the cup that cheers.
The jam pot should not be far
from the tea table.
The best part of a hot English muf-
fin is the generous amount of melted
butter that accompanies it. Hence be
not sparing in butter.

Spectator at Baltimore.
Special to The EVENING VIEWS.

AFS " ~
Baltimore, June 27-Mrs. William
II. Taft was in the spectators gallery
at the Democratic convention with
friends this afternoon and there is
every prospect Of an exciting session.
Lively fighting is expected over the
South Dakota and Illinois contests.
The speech of Ollie James, perma-
nent chairman, will follow and will
probably not be concluded until . or
6 o'clock. Then probably a recess
of twO or three hours will be taken
to be followed by many nominating
speeches. The first ballot is expect
ed to be taken around midnight.
Only about half the delegates
were in their seats at noon, the hour
for opening the convention, and
there was little enthusiasm among
them. There are tremendous crowds
and an air of excitement around the
hall and In the galleries. Bands
with Wilson, Clark and Bryan ad-
herents paraded around the hall.
Senator Luke Lea. of Tennessee,
floor leader of Progressives, says:
I'VE viii fight every inch of the way
in the South Dakota and Illinois
contests, but it is believed. neyerthe-
less, that efforts are being made.
with fair prospects of success, to
compromise these fights and thus
shorten the session" The ave
ton was called to order at 12:45

TO MAKE DANDEL-ION GREENS
Peculiar Bitter Flavor of the Plant
Acts as d Stimulant to the
Appetite.

The peculiar bitter flavor OF the
daudelion acts as a stimulnnt to the
appetite. Coming in the spring of the
year, free for all to gather, this nat
ural tonic and blood purifier should be
very generally used. 1t is good for
the invalid as we'll as the healthy per-
son.
Gather the young plants. Take great
care to clean them thoroughly. Scrape
the roots white and clean and rinse in
several cool waters. The best way to
remove every bit Of grit Is to hold
the greens undor fast running water
after rinsing. Some people prefer to
the roots.
To one-half peck az pounds) of
green's allow two quarts of boiling wa
ter and a two-inch cube of salt pork.
Put the pork in the kettle first. Boil
slowly and steadily for one hour. or
until tender; add one-half teaspoon
full of salt when half done. They are
not good unless perfectly well cooked.
Drain. Cut up C~oarsely with a knife.
Put In q saucepan to re-heat, adding
a tablespoonful Of butter, pepper and
moro salt IL needed. Serve piled in
a hot dish, with thin slices Of the pork
laid around, also a few lemon wedges.
Pass oil and vinegar for those who
wish to use them; il distasteful, a
good squeeze of lemon juice and a
dash Of paprika will be found a de-
lightful substitute.

Many witnesses from this city and

two men during the recent strike
riots at the plant of the American
Smelling and Refining Company.
The grand jury is inquiring into the

Letter from w. p. RunyOn.
Jim" Smith, the erstwhile Unit
ed States Senator from Newark, and
his henchman, Jim" Nugent, re-
ceived a letter Tuesday morning
from W. Parker Runyon, president
of the Perth Amboy Dry Dock Com
pany, and, himself, a strong anti
Wilson man, in which he declared
his regret from being unable to at
tend the convention. Mr.. Runyon
stated in his letter that the present
labor troubles are a distinct bar to
any attempt he may make to take in
the 1912 convention. 1t will be the
first convention Mr.. Runyon has
missed in years, but many in the
Jersey delegation are asking: will
the convention miss Mr.. Runyon?"
In concluding his letter to the New
ark crowd, Mr.. Runyon said: Sin
cerely hoping you will nominate
either Clark, Harmon, Underwood,
Gaynor or Marshall, l beg to be,
etc"
The Jersey delegation split this af-
ternoon on the question of temper
airy chairman, and plainly indicates
that Jim" Smith and his bunch are
backing Tammany Hall in the fight
against Bryan. The four "un-
pledged delegates from Jersey, lead
by Nugent, voted for Judge Parker.
Joseph McNulty, matchmaker of
the Permo A. A, Of Perth Amboy,
arrived here late Tuesday night and
will remain in the convention city,
in all probability, until the nominal
lions are closed. He is returning
home from Pittsburgh, Pa, where
he has closed for a boxing match
between Young" Bedell, of Perth

says he will stop off at Philadel-
phia, Pa, and hunt up Harry Ram

his home town of Perth Amboy as

Few Tickets for Wilson Men.
Wilson men from all parts of the
are not only meeting with difficulties
in securing admission tickets to the
hall, but are also beset with perils
in the shape of attacks upon the
credentials Of the d~oorkeepers,

out clearly: Michael Dorsey, as
sistant building inspector, Of Hobo
ken, was appointed as doOrkeeper by
Col. John l. Martin, sergeant-at-
arms, under advise OF National Com
mitteeman Robert s. Hudspeth. He
arrived here Sunday and went i'm
m~ediately to the armory, with the
sole intent Of capturing a card,
badge and certificate. After waiting
for twelve hours-after 1t became
noised around the hall that the ap-
pointee was from the Wilson state,
Dorsey was rewarded with a door
keepers ticket. AS to badge, etc
he was referred to Secretary Skid

which has charge of everything, who
declared that the Hudson county
