To Prevent Cheese HARDENING.

The addition of raw egg to the,
mixture of grated cheese and. creags
for cheese waters prevents the cheese
from hardening when cold. My plan
is slightly to butter crackers, or dip
them in melted butter, place in par
and put a spoonful or more of tho
cheese mixture upon each one. Sprin-
kle with paprika and place IN heated
oven after turning off the gas. They
are delicious hot, and are good cold.

Jesse Washington, negro, confess
ed murderer of Mrs. Lucy Fryar, was
burned to death in the city hail yard
at Waco, Tex, Monday morning by
a mob which had siezed him in the
Fiftv-Fourth District Court room inn
mediately after a jury had brought
in a verdict OF guilty and assessed
his punishment at death.
! When court convened Monday
morning to try the case a crowd of
several hundred men assembled.
| These men were comparatively Or
derly until the jurors returned a YER
dict Then with the cry, "Get the
inegrol" a rush was made toward the
defendant, who was not quite 1S
years old.
His capture accomplished, the ne
gro was hustled out at the back of
the courthouse and a chain was
! fastened around his neck.
AT first 1t was proposed, to hang
him from the suspension bridge,
where Sank Majors, another negro,
was hanged about ten years ago. but
when some one suggested that he be
burned in the city hall yard there
was a chorus of Ayes"
Arrived at the city hall, Washing
ton was quickly strung to a tree
while boxes were secured and a fire
kindled.
About 10000 people witnessed the
burning. The negro was in a semi
conscious condition when the fire
was extinguished.
The rush of the mob in the court
room came so suddenly that officers,
lawyers and all others near the
bench we're swept from their feet.
No time was given the officers to
offer resistance and, it is declared,
opposition would have been useless,
as the negro had been secured and
Iremoved from the courtroom before
those in the rear realized what had
happened.
! lntl6 was nO bhOOllnB VI ulSpAdy

Irought treatment en- route to the
place where he was burned. being
virtually dragged along the streets
by chain.
When he was suspended from the
limb of a tree in the city hall yard
his face was very bloody.
The crowd in the courtroom had
been comparatively quiet up to the
time the jurors returned their ver-
dict.
The rush to get Washington came
after he had barely whispered:
'I'm sorry l did it,"
News that the negro had fallen in
to the hands of the mob spread to
every part of the city, and within a
few minutes all available space on
the city hall plaza wa soccupied.
The fire denartment was called
out. but no Interference was made.
After life was extinct the body of
the negro was taken down and drag
ged through the streets. 1t was
encased in tow sack and pulled by
man who was riding a horse.
