Pan Broiled Loin Chops.-Pan
broiling is a method Of cooking
employed when there Is no suit
able fire for broiling. For the
best results 1t should be employ
ed only in the case Of meat from
which most Of. the fat has been
I removed. Loin chops which are
to be. pan broiled should have
the flank and most Of the fat re
moved. After wiping they should
be put into a hot frying pan and
turned frequently. In order to
avoid piercing the chops in turn

The laws OF social usage may be
called elastic when / It comes to the
questions OF what is correct In sending
out cards Of invitation or announce.
ment for weddings, from the fact that
as all prospective brides may not be
blessed with living parents, who are,
Of course, natural guardians, but must
be in q measure dependent upon other
and possibly distant relatives or con-
nections. problems arise as to who are
to be consid cred as correct persons to
send out such cards. :s
"A good rule and one that should OBJ
=:viate any confusion is that. under the
circumstances of prospective bride
living with a married sister, that
sister and her husband issue cards or
announcements with their own names:
Mr.. and Mrs Walter Blank
request the honor Of your presence
at ==>;=
the marriage Of their sister,
Mary Alice Smith.
Mr.. Algernon Barring Chevalier,
with day, date and hour Of ceremony,
and whether a church or home affair,
or merely as an invitation to attend
an after the wedding reception.
If prospective bride is to be mar
ried from the residence of an unmar-
ried brother or sister. the easiest and
best method is to send written in
vitations to those wanted, just stating
briefly that the ceremony is to be per
formed at such and such an hour and
day, and requesting the presence, etc.
A married brother may have: cards
engraved with his name and his wife's
to send for the wedding of his sister,
the same as given above, in all cases
using the words their sister"

JASPER NEWS

Clarence Moody and son, Vivian.
and Earl Kennedy, who are work
ing on the Mizer mine at Jasper.
came down from that camp Thurs
day and brought good-sized sam.
Piles of the $4,000 ore which has
a ttra cted statewide attention,
These samples may be seen at the
Cigar stand of Chandler e. Monroe
The miners are now sinking on the
rich vein and the ore increases in
value with depth. Work is being
done at disadvantage now on &C
count of the water, but pumps will
be installed that will enable the
miners to sink and drift and soon
stopping and shipping will begin.
The lessees of this mine have a
three-years lease, which will give
them plenty of time to extract
millions in gold and other metals.
The plan is to ship the rich ore to
the smelter and handle the low
grade at the mine.

NUMBER 1876
OLD MEXICO

Thursday night at the Methodist
church on Old Mexico was both
interesting and instructive.
He reached the city of Mexico
on the day before the uprising
against the Madero government
and remained there until the close
of the rebellion. He gave
graphic account of this fratricidal
war-the lack of any strategy or
generalship by either side; the
waste of ammunition; the indiffer-
enoe to life or property; the stole
ism and lack of patriotism on the
part of the business men and the
city in general who were ready to
furnish supplies to either side of
the struggle for pecuniary ad-
vantage.
The land of Mexico is practical
ly all owned by the few who pay
little or no taxes on the same.
About forty per cent of the native
population are Indians and only
2,00O,OOO of the 13,OOO,OOO popula-
ton can read, Land monopoly
means poverty and ignorance,
which, with the exploitation of
large foreign corporations, makes
civilization impossible. Super
stition prevails and reason is
eliminated
The speaker spoke of ex.Presi-
dent Diaz as despot who paid
but little attention to lawful
methods. If man was suspected
of any opposition to Diaz he was
shot and no questions asked.
Madero was patriot and would
liked to have bettered conditions,
but he was more of dreamer than
a statesman and failed to secure
the support of the ruling powers.
The Huerta regime is unpopular
and the attempt to rule by the
Diez methods will fail.
Intervention by the United
States would mean long and ex-
pensive struggle, both financially
and in loss of life by reason of the
climatic conditions.
Evolution and change in econ
omic and religious conditions must
be relied on to redeem Old Mexico.
ESCAPE FROM DROWNING
Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Allen and
Mrs. W. r. George of Monte Vista
had narrow escape from drown
ing in the Alamosa river last Fri
day. Mr.. Allen and wife had
driven to Jasper to meet Mrs.
George, who was going in to the
Allen place near Stuuner for a
visit, and on their return attempted
to ford the river near Wightman
fork. The current was very swift
and deep and the spring wagon
was overturned, throwing the occu-
pants into the water The Aliens
managed to reach shore and also get
the team out, but Mrs. George was
carried down stream for quite
distance and under some logs, where
she was rescued by man who
happened to be in the vicinity and
who had witnessed the accident.
The rescuer, who was a stranger,
was nearly drowned and Mrs,
George was worked with for some
time before she was revived.

Sudden Death Of Thomas Murphy.

Word reached Audubon yesterday
that Thomas Murphy had died shortly
after midnight Tuesday at his home in
Nicola. The deceased was about 81
years of age and resident of Audubon
many years, but recently had been
making his home with his son.in law,
William Mcclure, at Nicola. He is the
father of James Murphy. of Douglas
township who but recently moved to
Carroll. Funeral services were held at
Nicola yesterday and the body shipped
here Thursday evening for burial. Mr..
Murphy fell at his home about week
ago and sustained broken leg. On
account of his extreme age, the shock
was too great for his system to over
come, and death relieved him of his
sufferings.
Mr.. Murphy has many friends in
this vicinity who will be panied to
learn of his sudden death. He was a
man of noble character, and numbered
his friends by the extent of his &C.
quaintance.
