WINTER eEETs.

EL1S are AVAILABLE I'LL winter ana
Id are one of the most useful vege-
tables which the housewife has
ut her command.
Various ways Of serving them are
suggested here.
Spiced Beets.-To Eve pounds Of
peeled sliced beets take three pounds
Of sugar, one pint Of vinegar, ten
cloves, little stick Of cinnamon. Boil
the sirup. add beets and boil ten min
utes. Put the beets In jars and pour
strip over them and seal until needed
Beet Pudding.-Boil the beets till
they are tender. then cut into dice aft
err peeling them. Allow a pint of milk
to pint of beets, add two or three
well beaten eggs, salt and pepper to
taste and light grating of nutmeg.
Put all into an earthen baking dish
and bake until the custard Is set In the
middle. Serve hot
Baked Beets.
Reetroot Ia Creme. After they
have been washed the beets should be
baked whole, then skinned. Still keep
awhile in little butter. When they
are ready to serve white sauce should
be poured around them and chopped
parsley sprinkled over them. The mild
flavor Of beets makes little acidity In
the sauce desirable, and dash of vine
gar added Mt the last improves it.
Piquant of Beets.-Roil the beets un-
til tender, slice and put into a sauce
pan with some parsley, mixed sweet
herbs minced fine, some minced onion,
pinch Of -four, salt. pepper and II
spoonful or more of vinegar. Boil for
about quarter Of an hour and serve.

Gilmore Buys a New Building

Frank Goodwin closed deal
last night between j A. Nelson
of Minneapolis, and T. M. Gil
more, of this city, whereby Mr..
Gilmore buys the two story
brick building on the corner of
Fifth and Erie now occupied
by M. Fanger. This is one of
the best locations in the city
and will make Mr.. Gilmore's
grocery store second to none in
Western Iowa. The building
is 25x1O0 with a balcony at the
rear which will be fitted up for
q rest room. There is a side
door with q permanent awning
where the groceries can be dis
played and a rear entrance for
the use of the delivery wagons.
The windows are the best dis
play windows in the city and
can be made very attractive.
The second floor will probably
be divided into two flats, al
though Mr.. Gilmore has not
fully determined on this as yet.
He will not move in until the
building is vacated by Mr.. Fan
ger which will probably be
some time in May.

Musicale

The music loving patrons
who were fortunate enough TO
visit the Doty & Peterson
Drug Store last evening and to-
day, were offered a rare treat
by being delightfully."- entertain
ed with splendid selections on
the new Edison Diamond Disc
Photograph which was being
demonstrated by Herman Fred
erick Silzer.
The sweet, natural, silver-ton-
ed quality of this machine, due
to the fact that the great in.
ventor has gone back to Nature
to derive this, using the hori-
zontal gravity weight needle,
was greatly commented upon
by all who heard it. The rec
ords, too, are especially com
mendable because of their ex-
ceptional length and durability.
Messrs. Doty & Peterson hope
to handle this excellent ma
chine in the near future.

Governor Will Apply For
Injunction in Prison
Test Case.
TO URGE FINAL ISSUE.
Attorney Generals Opinion That
Penitentiary Board is Without Pow
cr is to be Tested

Richmond. April 6.-After a three
hour conference Saturday between
Governor Stuart and members of
the State Penitentiary Board, it was
agreed to make test case to deter
mine the status of the parole law
of 1904, which Acknowledgement
Pollard, in an opinion to the Cover
nor, has held To be unconstitutional.
! On Saturday afternoon the Peniten-
tiary Board will select some desery-
ling convict who has served half Of
his term and order him paroled.
Governor Stuart will at once apply
!, to the courts for an injunction to re-
strain Major James B. Wood, super
intendent of the prison, from releas-
ing the man until he has served the
term for which he was committed,
or has been parloned in the manner
provided by law.
IN this way the parole law will
be brought squarely before the Su-
preme Court of Appeals Of Virginia
for final determination as to its
validity. 1t is possible that it may
be given preference on the court
docket, and be argued at the June
term at Wytheville. In the agree
ment reached yesterday, the Peni-
tentfary Board ob!igates itelf not to
attempt to exercise the parole power
other than in the agreed test case,
until the matter has been fpally~de.l
ermined by the courts.
1t was stated that the conference
was entirely friendly, and was mere
'ly to reach clear determination as
to the requirements of the law, but
it is known that both the Governor
and the prison board are disposed to
stand firmly on their rights. In fact,
the prison board points to an opinion
rendered by former Attorney Gene
raj Samuel W. Williams under date
of April 9, 1913, in which it was
held that Governor Mann did not
have the right to remove members
of the board from office, but courd
suspend individual members for con-
stitutional offenses after due notice.
The request for the opinion grew out
Of the alleged efforts Of certain
members of the board to secure the
freedom of the Allen outlaws while
the Governor was temporarily out
Of the State.
