The New TWelVemonth
Will Bring Its Stars to
Supplant Those
Fading.
BY BUGS" BAER.


No sobs or sighs as the old year dies.
He fades, sans friend or thought,
No tear-dimned lash as the last
hours fash,
For a new year holds his court.
No heart throbs swell when the
parting knell
Sounds taps for n once feared
wing,
And the arm, once best, is but a
jest,
AS new star has his fling.
For speed must fade meath Times
swift raid,
And the eye grow dull and cold,
For the clutch must slip as lean
years grip,
And the new supplant the old.
You've scared by might to the
sheerest height,
But crumple beneath Tines mace.
The will grows weak IS the years
grow bleak,
And a new man fills your place! !

 In the group enroute just now to Fl Paso are Generals Bravo. Caus. Elisea Robles. together with q number of of ficers of lower rank in the old army of Porfirio Diaz. and Nictoriano Huerta.

porters after their conference it was revealed Secretary Lansing had "eX- pressed determination on the part of both the president and himself to do all in their power to aid the inn porters to secure the rights to which they are entitled under the laws O. nations and by treaty obligations"
 The effect of the conference will not le apparent for several days. Sec retary Lansing took the facts pre- scented by the importers under con- sideration. and will communicate with the president. It already has been announced that the state de- partment for many weeks has been preparing further representations to Great Britain asking for a modified ton of the so-called blockade The president however. has been unwil- ling to complicate the situation while the delicate negotiations with Ger many were in progress.
 There has been insistence from many quarters that the note should be sent to Great Britain simultan- eously with the German negotiations to emphasize the intention of the United States to defend her neutral rights whether violated by the allies CT by Germany. The president told friends he had been on both sides of the question Of sending a note to Great Britain at this time. but it is known he has finally resolved to wait for the German answer to the last note concerning submarine war fare.
 He does not wish. it is understood. to give the appearance abroad that the United States would bargain by negotiation with Great Britain on the blockade question or for cOnces- sions by German demanded as a re- suit of the sinking of the Lusitania. Preparation for the loss of more than hundred American lives. the presi- dent has held. must constitute separate and distinct issue.

 Before the note is sent, however. covering all phases of the order in council. it is considered possible the statement of the American importers will be transmitted to Ambassador Page for presentation to the British foreign office in order that Great Britain may appreciate the growing unrest of the American merchants.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
WIN LIBEL SUIT.

From the Catholic Bulletin, st. Paul,
Mimi.
In the District Court of lie Sueur
rison, father and son, editors and pub
fishers of the "Mankato Morning
Journal" of Mankato, Mimi, pleaded
guilty to the charge of criminal libel
and were fined $25 each or, in default
of payment, thirty days in Jail. The
trial took place in LIE Sueur Centre,
on Thursday, February 25, before
Judge Orr, of the District Court of
Ramsey county. 1t was an appeal
from the sentence imposed on the de-
PENDANTS by Judge Dressed, of Water
vile, on July 20, 1914, in an action
of criminal libel, brought by E. M.
Lawless, editor of the "Waterville
Sentinel" against the Morrisons, who
charged Mr.. Lawless with having ia
ken the bogus fourth degree Knights
of Columbus oath.
Being a criminal case, the action
was brought in the name of the State.
Shortly after the work of empan-
cling a jury had begun the attorneys
for the defendant asked for a confer
ence with the attorneys for the State,
and as a result agreed to plead guilty
to the charge of criminal libel. After
the plea had been entered Attorney
Morris explained that since the for
mer trial every effort had been made
by them to obtain evidence in sup
port of their contention that Mr.. Law
less had taken the bogus Knights of
Columbus oath, but that they were
unable to secure a scintilla of proof
in support of their assertion.
There was no desire on the part of
the Knights of Columbus to prosecute
the Ease further. They were salts
fed with the confession of guilt made
by the defendants.

OF VEAL AND CHICKEN
One of the Best. of all the Accepted
Salads.
Whether Made of Left0vers or the
Fresh Material, There Are Ger
tain Rules Which the House,
wife Must Observe.

Unless the salad is to be made of
leftoverS, the chicken should be eS-
pecially boiled, carefully seasoned
while cooking and allowed to cool in
the water in which it is cooked. A
generous piece of veal may be cooked
at the same time with the chicken, or
cold veal can be warmed over in the
chicken broth or in hot salt water, to
which a few chicken bones have been
added. 1t also should be allowed to
stand in the water in which it has
been heated until cold, then cut up
into even dice and used the same
as chicken. Where a large quantity
of salad is to be made one good size
chicken, freshly cooked, as a basis
with an addition of veal and as much
more canned chicken as is necessary
to make up the amount required, will
be found an economy of both money
and labor.
In boiling a chicken for salad, put
into a kettle of boiling water, add a
chopped onion, a couple of sticks of
celery or a half teaspoonful of celery
salt, a couple of bay leaves, a table
spoonful of chopped carrot and a doz-
en- peppereorns. Just a tiny bit of fat
salt pork may be added if desired. Let
the contents of the kettle boil rapidly
five minutes, then push back where
the water will only simmer, until the
chicken is tender. Cooked in this way
the dark meat will be almost as light
colored as the white.
Now let the chicken cool in the
water in which it has been cooked. 1t
is well TO cook both chicken and veal
the day before the salad is to be used.
When ready to make the salad, re-
move the flesh from the bones, reject
ing all the skin and fat, cut the meat
into dice and measure. Add as much
or half as much as veal, as desired. If
the salad is not to be served immedi-
ately, sprinkle the meat with a little
lemon juice and set away in a cold
place. Cut into dice enough crisp
white celery to make about two-thirds
the quantity of meat, and have ready
a good mayonnaise. At serving time,
mix with meat and over each quart of
the mixture sprinkle a teaspoonful of
salt and half a teaspoonful of pepper.
Moisten with some of the broth in
which the chicken was cooked (for a
dry salad is an abomination), and
enough mayonnaise to coat every
piece. Mix thoroughly but lightly
and turn into salad bowl lined with
lettuce leaves o. on a platter where
the leaves have been made into little
cups, each sufficient to hold a helping
of the salad. This looks pretty and
makes the serving easier. Spread a
little more mayonnaise on top of each
service and garnish with stuffed olives
or the little sweet red canned peppers
and celery tips. A quarter pound of
almonds blanched and quartered may
be added to each pint Of chicken and
veal, if you desire something especial
ly nice for a wedding or other enter
tainment.
