Variety In Homemade Bread.

Some families are content with one
kind of bread only, but most people
enjoy q variety. There are many simple
ways of obtaining 1t. Here are some
recommended by the bread making spe-
calists of the United States Department
Of Agriculture:
Yeast.raised bread can be made of
graham, or the so-cslled whole-whea
-four instead of the usual bread -four;
or one may use two cups OF wheat -four
and one cup of corn meal, oatmeal, pea.
nut meal, soy bean meal, or . GORE
spending amount of boiled rice or pota-
to. Baking the dough In the form Of
biscuit or rolls instead of in o loaf
changes not only Its appearance but also
its flavor, because they have more crisp
brown crust in proportion to the crumb.
Butter, sugar, raisins, nuts, and spice
also give q variety that many families
welcome now and then, az do oarsway
seed, snise-seed, and poppy seed, used
especially with rye bread.
raised with soda and sour milk or other
mild acid, or with baking powder, thai
are often used instead Of yeast-raised
bread. II we'll made, they are very
wholesome. Unfortunately In some
parts OF the country biscuits are often
made so large that the inside does not
get thoroughly baked before the crust Ia
done. Another rather common fault L.
using more soda than is needed. Too
much soda not only Injuries the favor,
but may lessen, If not destroy, the
growth promoting substances In the
bread.
Corr meal breads raised by soda, bsk
iug powder, or eggs, may also be freely
used. Corn meal milled by modern
processes does not make SO moist bread
as the old-fashionsd type of meal, unless
It 10 heated with water before the bread
10 mixed. II one understand this point,
either kind of meal can be easily and
satisfactorily used. Spoon breads made
from corn meal or corn meal and rice
are other kinds which vary the bread
list. These are softer than ordinary
bread, but not 80 soft as porridge or
musb, and, unlike the latter, they have
q distinct, ell-browned crust.
Griddlecakes and pancakes are really
q kind of thin bread cooked on q hot
surface instead of In an oven, and 10
planning meals the wise housekeeper
will think of them In this way. She
will also remember that the butter and
strip often served with them yield valu.
able fuel, or energy, for the body.

And the Long, Fearful
Blast Caused Much
Concern
PEOPLE WE'RE EXCITED
But Was Only Engine On
Innocent But Pro-
tracted Toot

A lone engine with a deviIish
streak in its disposition caused
such excitement this morning in
the city about ten o'clock that al
most in one breath people eXclaim.
ed excitedly over the unusual rack.
ct. Most people believed something
or other was being celebrated but
they couldn't find out what it was.
The newspaper offices were called
and everybody out of doors was
interrogated.
On the streets, in homes and in
the stores both men aud women
were taken by surprise. Whats
the big idea?" inquired q number.
Must be Armistice Day" decid'
cd others. Maybe somebody's
dead, and they're tolIing the wnis-
ties" was the remark OF a pesst
mIstic Individual who stood on tho
corner OF Main and Madison en-
deavorinS to gaze in all directions
at once.
1t was quite five minutes before
the sound was located as coming
from the direction OF the railroad
tracks but It took some time to
learn Just what 1t was that got
away with 30 much noise all at
once without a break Of any kind.
The whistling started without
warning and continued without
ceasing, striking a high key. shrill
and harsh. 1t continued about ten
minutes. When II, had stopped, II
was learned that a solitary engine
from western Maryland had devel'
oped a cantankerous streak ana
when the engineer started blowing
his whistle, this noise making dc.
vice utterly refused to be shut Oh
again. 1t was not until some mo-
ments after the engine had pulled
into the B. 6 o. yards that re-
pairman persuaded the thing to
shut up.

Protesting members OF the

Inquest Held This Morn,
ing on Two murders
In County

Two inquests were held this
morning by jury im2aneled by
Coroner Frank Llo"d last week TO
inquire into the death of J. d.
Sinms which occurred at Everson
on election night and that Of Lula
Edmouds who was shot by her
husband at Hutchinson on Hallow-
cen night. All parties concerned
were negroes as were all the
witnesses. The coroner's jury was
composed OF George Richardson,
Tom Hess, E. A. BilIingslea, H. ].
Price, smith Hood, Jr., and T. E,
Boydson.
The testimony of three witnesses
in the Simms case was that OF

good friends until election day
when THOMAS was prevented from
voting ILLEGALLY by Stmms who gave
out the information that Thomas
had been in Jail for eighteen
months had just been released
shortly before the election and
had not registered. This angesed
Thomas who went to the Simms
residence that night and made
good his threat uttered during the
day that he would fix" Simms.
Matilda, the little daughter OF the
murdered man, was the only one
in the house who saw the shoot
ing. Thomas came to the city and
surrendered to the sheriff and is
now in the county jail. The jury
found that Simms met his death
from gunshot wounds inflicted by
Thomas.
A similar verdict was rendered
by the jury in the Edmonds case
after hearing the evidence OF the
three witnesses who were at the
home Of Glen Watkins in Hutch
inson on Saturday night, October
80, when Norman Edmonds shot his
wife sunday, shortly after the
couple left the Watkins home. No
motive could be found for the
