Jaroslau Destroyed
BY Bolsheuik Siege;
Insurgents Executed

LONDON, Aug. 10@The story of the
tragic fate of the Russian city Of Jaro
slav, as transmitted to the Frankfort
'Aeltung' from its Moscow correspond
ent, reads like medieval romance. Jaro-
slav, famous for its splendid churches
and inconsistencies, was almost complete
~ destroyed after a seige of twelve
days by the Bolsheviki, and thousands
are homeless
The counter revolutionaries planned
simultaneous rising at Jaroslav, Mos
COW and other cities for July G. AT
dawn that day the insurgents at Jaro-
slav, led by former Russian army of
hcer, arrested the members of the local
Soviet IN their beds and executed many
of them Immediately. They seized the
steamers.
The surprised Red Guard troops were
driven out Of the city. They intre nche d
themselves in the vicinity, and. after
receiving reinforccments from Moscow
occupied commanding positions and be-
gan shelling the city. Fires broke out
in different parts Of the town and most
of the public buildings were demol-
ishcd. Both sides fought with extreme
ferocity, no quarter being given. For
ten days there was no drinking water
in Jaroslav, as the pumping station
had been destroyed by shells, and the
river approaches were kept under heavy
fire from the besiegcrs
In the meantime fifteen hundred re-
leased German prisoners, who were
about 70 be repatriated, we're sum
moned by the insurgents to join them.
They refused, whereupon they were
again taken prisoner and several were
Killed or wounded. The rest we're re-

When the situation In the city
became desperate the reyolutionaries
adopted an amazing change Of tactics.
They decided 10 lay down their arms
and surrender 10 the Germans. The

British Need Not
Recognize Soviet
War Declaration
BY Arthur S. Draper

LONDON, Aug. 10.-As the British
government never officially recognized
the Bolshevik government it can, if
it desires, ignore the latter's declara-
ton of war.
For several days Berlin has been al
ternately encouraging Lcnine, Trotzky
and their supporters to take, this step
against Great Britain, and announcing
the war a fat accompli. In return
the Wilhelmstrasse promised to make
no further military advance against
the Red Guards, which would free the
latter's whole force for battles against
the Czecho- Slovaks and the Allied ex-
petitions to the Thurman coast and
Archangel.
Because they have been unable to
improve the economic situation and
relieve the people the Bolshevik lead
ers have lost much prestige and au-
thority, and they are now trying
desperately to recover their power
They arc turning naturally to Berlin,
whose agents gre in much the best
position to offer them immediate as
sstance. Germany considers England
her chief enemy. and for that reason
the Bolshevik have been encouraged
to act against her rather than against
France or America, although it is
probable that the declaration of war
will include all the other Allied coun-
tries.
AS the tide runs against Germany
in the West ard she sees her hopes
dashed it is natural to expect that
she will make frantic efforts to reach
a settlement in the East. Helffercll,
who went to Moscow as successor to
Won Mirbach, returned this week to
Berlin with report on conditions in
Russia. Germany undoubtedly is pre-
pared to make big sacrifices in the
hope of pacifyirg the Russians, and
thus releasing further troops which
she can use In the West Incidentally,
it is likely that Helfferich will en-
deavor to organize Russia econom-
ically, and will offer to give her
financial assistance and put her on
her feet industrially.

Taglchc Rundschau" says that events
have developed rapidly in Russia In the
last few weeks, and that Germany must
be prepared for the overthrow of the
Bolshevik government in a few days.
The paper says the fact that DR.. Karl
Helfferch, recently appointed German
Ambassador to Russia in succession to
the late Count Won Mirbach, is in
Berlin, indicates that Germany is pre-
pared to meet any contingency.
The "Frankfort Zeitung" says that
the pressure against Moscow from the
northeast and southeast is growing
very serious. the Czecho- Slovaks not
only being within short distance Of
the city, but having succeeded in cutting
off the food supply. The paper adds
that the opposition of the peasants to
the Bolsheviki is growing stronger.

tie milk, an egg, little warmed meat drippings and salt and pepper to taste. The milk should be added last and just enough of it to hold the rest of the in- gredients together.
 The good old-fashioned way of mak- ing bread stuffing was 70 soak stale bread in just enough hot water to cover it. Dried crusts were not used. When the bread had become well soak ed it was put into a clean old napkin or cheesecloth and a good deal of the moisture was squeezed out. The bread was then placed in mixing bowl and to it were added beaten egg. minced onion little sage, salt, pepper and perhaps little meat stock This was the kind of mixture that was most general generation or. so ago for the stuffing for the Thanksgiving turkey.

To use the bread by crumbling It and adding proper moisture to it seems to be the way most usually recommended now by cooking school teachers, Per haps this is better now that we con- serve every bit of nourishment for per haps little of the goodness of the bread is squeezed out of it in the old fashioned method
 One good way of making the bread crumb stuffing is to mix the crumbs with onions that have been boiled ten- der and then chopped. This is seas oned with salt, pepper ana sage, and bound together with an egg.
 Oyster stuffing is an old American favorite for chicke IS and turkeys, but it lends a flavor to the bird that may not always be acceptable to every one The usual way of proceeding for this

"whales have heretofore

Whales have heretofore been caught for their oil and whalebone or else have been made into fertilizer. It is estimated that last year in Amer ican water the carcasses of these sea giants thus wantonly wasted would represent in food equivalent between 20 O00 and 35.000 heads of steers. The flesh of all species or whales, DOT poises, dolphins and other cetaceans is excellent for human consumption, and it is only a question of time when. both fresh and preserved, it will be in demand and extensivery utilized.
 Whales and porpoises are man. mals. like cattle and sneep. In reality they are meat and not fish In text ure and appearance their flesh resem- bles beef though the color is dark red, and the flavor is more like steak than anything else. 1t is absolutely

 Recently residents of Seattle and Portland have been fortunately able to buy whale meat, one of the fishing concerns in that region finding it more profitable to thus dispose of their catch than formerly. It sold in the market for ten cents per pound and was eagerly purchased by all classes of people and pronounced ex- cellent. The best hotels, clubs and cafes featured it on their menus, and it was ordered by so many diners that the supply was speedily consumed.

STUFFING IS AID
 TO THE ROAST MEAT

1t is strange that more has not been said about good old fashioned stuffing as way of making a little meat go a long way and incidentally using up odds and ends of left-overs in a palat- able way. Almost any cut of roast meat may be fitted mp with a pocket by the butcher or in our own kitchen after they have purchased the meat and his pocket may be quite easily fitted with stuffing that will make the meat last longer and go farther.
 A good stuffing and one that recom- mends itself as not containing bread Is made from hot mashed potatoes. Left -over- mashed potatoes will do, pro- vided they are mixed with the other ingredients hot. To the potatoes add chopped parsley. chopped onion, a lit

 Dr. Hugh M Smith, commissioner of the bureau of fisheries of the United States and the worlds foremost au- thority on fish, says:
 The European war will benefit the masses of this country by bringing to their attention the fact that fish can advantageously supplant meats in every American home, and at the same time; build better bodies less exr- lively. l believe I am safe in asserting that within two years whale meat, a genuine table delicacy. will be pre- ferred to beef, especially in the terri tory contiguous to our.

With bread crumbs with enouga of the liquor in which they have been boiled is to cook the oysters and mix them to make the stuffing of the right consis- tency. They should be favored with drippings.
