When RICHARD CROKER. seeing the
passing Of the lean years for Tammany
that followed the I.exow investigati ton.
returned to America In 1897 and drove
JOHN c. SHEEHAN out Of the Halls
leadership. he wanted an uptown home.
site. The club had known days Of mod
crate prosperity in the period between
Mr.. CLEvELAND's administrations, but
was Of no particular consequence po-
litically until CROKER set UP his head
quarters there.
During the four years Of VAN WICK
the Democratic Club was influential
and important. All loyal Tammany
men were given to understand that they
must join and dress the part. Therein
the late TON DUNN. responding to a
political worker not famous for devo-
ton to the niceties Of dress, on being
asked what he thought of his associ-
ates evening clothes, said: "Fine; you
look great In EN-; why don't you buy
a suit?" CRoKEs held court nightly.
and many were the strange sights to be
witnessed in the club.
When CROKER and VAN WICK brought
another licking to Tammany CROKER
quit the craftsmanship Of the finance
committee, and after nixon and the
Trlumvirate MURPHY reorcanizei the
Wlgwam forces MURPHY's uptown
seat was In public restaurant. He
did not care for the Democratic Club.

mediately reflected In It's attendance.
Many Of the men who had Joined be-
cause Of CROKER ased to use II. and
the club relapsei into It's previous con-
dition OF lnconsplcuousness Its rolls
bore the names of many prominent men.
but they did business" further down
Fifth avenue.
: Then came the effort TO resuscitate
the organization as a national estab-
lishment The capitalized adjective
NATIONAL was tackled to the front Of
Democratic Club" dinners were held
at which well known visitors from afar
talked Jeffersonian philosophy. modi-
fled to meet the times, and the scope
Of the club was greatly widened."
Wherein its influence has been effective
would be difficult to say. but some good
dinners have been served within Its
walls, and noble poker game once was
housed under Its roof tree.
1t is from this National Democratic
Club that MURPHY has now been ex-
truded by the friends Of CROKER, whose
activities In local politics have been
increasingly apparen since the defeat
Of the Tammany ticket last fall.
CROKER himself has put spoon In the
porrldge. His remaining friends here
seem to have some definite and specific
purpose behind their assaults on Nun.
PLY. Certainly they are annoying him
perhaps they are hurting him. The
suggestion that CROKER hopes once more
to come back" is grotesque. but to
what end is an old suit of his clothes
stuffed with straw being paraded about
the Democratic enclosure?

They Need a Wheel Chair

Can you give me any information as to where l can get a second hand wheel chair? l have a friend whose husband has been cripple many years and who longs to be out in the air and sunshine She is practically an invalid herself, and know if they had wheel chair l could take him out and give her rest. They are unable to buy one, as her son is their sole support. and it takes almost all he earns to make them comfortable. Please let me know if you have one, or can tell me where l can get one for them. By doing this you will make two people very happy. ISABEL A
 A colleague who keeps a sharp eye upon such matters and calculates times and seasons more accurately than 1 ever can, assures me that the first quarter of the blue moon' is with us ,and warrants the publication of the foregoing appeal. I like to believe it, for my heart inclines strongly to the afflicted pair of married lovers. If there be a wheeled chair that can be made available for their use, I en- tieat that it be reported at the owner's s early convenience. Let us lose no time

in the oil little more rapidly, always
 making sure, however, that each DOT
 ton which goes in is absolutely blended
 before adding another By the time
 you have been at work 15 minutes the
 oil should have thickened the dressing
 to an extent which makes il safe to
 put in oil by the teaspoonful When
 the dressing is almost too thick to sur
 thin it with little vinegar and then
 go on with the oil again. To the yolk
 of one egg you may use from half a
 pint to a pint of oil, but unles you
 care for a tart dressing a tablespoon
 of vinegar should suffice, even for the larger amount. Use your discretion in
 putting in the vinegar. Buy none but
 the best olive oil for salads.
 Should the egg curdle and separate
 from the oil during the process Of
 mixing set the dressing to one side-do
 not throw it away-and begin all over
 again with the yolk of another egg, starting just as directed for the first.
 After the dressing is thick you can
 put with 1t the eurdled dressing, stir ring it in a little at time, as you
 do the oil. and it will be taken up in
 the same way Should you wish to
 increase your quantity of dressing whip
 the white of the egg to a stiff froth
 and stir it into the mayonnaise at the last moment, just before putting it
 on the salad, or passing the dressing with the salad.
 This dressing is easily prepared if the preceding directions are closely fol- low ed Especial care must be taken, as has been said to have the materials and the utensiis-the soup plate or bowl in which the mixing is done. and the fork with which the stirring IS onducted--perfectly cold. Mayonnaise
 may be made couple Of days be- fore it is needed and will keep on the ice or in a cold place for several days or week. It may be mixed with an egg beater but while this plan perhaps saves labor when a large quantity is to be made, my own ex- perience leads me to think it can be
 as well done for ordinary family use
 with a soup plate and fork.
 Stuffed Tomatoes-Wash and wipe but do not peel fine firm tomatoes of uniform size. Cut slice from the top of each. dig out the pulp, taking pains not to break the walls of the tomato. 1t is well to use a teaspoon for the work You may then put in what
 stuffing you wish. An excellent one is made of fine bread crumbs, sea- soned to taste with salt and pepper
 and a little butter and mixed with the
 chopped pulp you have taken from the tomatoes. Or you may make force meat of minced chicken and ham or other meat, seasoning it well. moisten- ing it with gravy and either putting with it the pulp of the tomatoes or setting this aside for some other pur- pose. If you have little cold ce left you may mingle this with the meat or with the pulp or use the rice alone When the tomatoes are filled place them in baking dish close to- gether, lay the tops of the tomatoes on them, pour a little gravy about them in the dish. cover and bake for D minutes. uncover and bake 10 minutes longer and serve.

Stuffed Tomatoes

Twill you kindly give in the Corner a recipe for stuffed tomatoes? l would also like one for mayonnaise dressing. There is a thin dressing used for cu- cumbers which I think is only oil and lemon, and yet am not sure. Will you Kindly enlighten me?
 CONSTANT READER
 You may have your dressing for salad as thin as you wish. The plain French dressing, which may be that to which you refer, contains a salt spoon of salt half as much pepper, one tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice, and three or four tablespoons of oil. according to the taste of the eat CTS These are stirred together until well blended and are much thinner than a dressing made with an egg foundation. like that of the following recipe:
 Mayonnaise Dressing-For this sepa rate the white and yolk of an egg carefully, taking an egg which has been on the ice for at least an hour before using. All the ingredients and utensils employed in mixing the dress ing must be thoroughly chilled. Put the white of the egg aside in cup and the yolk of the egg into soup plate. Mix with it the juice of half a lemon, a saltspoon of sale, half a salt spon each of mustard and white pep per-go light on the mustard unless you are especially fond of it-and when all are well blended begin putting in salad oil, few drops at time, stir ring this with a fork into the egg. Be sure that each addition of oil is thoroughly mixed in before you put in more. A minutes is none too long to stir each of the first dozen install ments of oil. By the time these are in the mixture should begin to show signs of thicllening, and you can put
