Today in
Washington History
Bx DONALD A. CRAI0.

April 0, 179S.-Maj. Andrew Ellicott
was restored TO his position as head Of
the surveying department OF the Fed
eral District by an order issued by the
District Commissioners today.
It was less than q month ago that
Mai. Ellicott and his corps OF assist
ants were dismissed from the service
by the Commissioners, who were dis
appointed by the slow progress the
surveyors have made In laying out the
lines of the Federal City. The Com
missioners also charged that Maj. FL
licott had not shown proper courtesy
to them on several occasions.
It will be recalled that President
Washington came to the city on one
of his short visits last month, within
week or so after this crisis had been
reached In the relations Of the District
Commissioners and Maj. Ellicott. The
President Immediately set about set
Ting the differences that had arisen,
with the intention Of having Maj. FL
licott restored to his position.
Gen. Washington Is anxious that
nothing occur to interfere with the lay
ing out of the new Federal City as rap
idly and smoothly Is possible. He
talked with Maj. Ellicott soon after his
arrival and was assured by him that he
had not meant to be discourteous to the
Commissioners. The purport OF this
conversation he sent by letter to the
Commissioners under date Of April 8.
Gen. Washington asked the Commits
Sioners whether an accommodation
under all circumstances Is not to be
preferred to an open breach and a
newspaper Justification which will in
evitably follow"
The Commissioners readily yielded to
the desire Of President Washington.
There Is no certainty, however, that
Mai. Ellicott will remain here. It is
rnmored that the Governor Of the State
Of Pennsylvania desires him to survey a
road from Reading to WaterfordS, In the
western portion Of that State-an I'M
dertaking of great responsibility as well
as peril, due to the danger of Indian
attacks. II Mai. Ellicott should accept
this appointment, the work would prob
ably occupy him for some two years and
he might not again be able to aid in the
survey of the Federal District and the
new city mere.
Mai. Ellicott's skill In his calling is
widely recognized and he has received
several calls to other fields since he has
been at work here.

that you have been using base which
is not suitable. If the cream that you
have been using is too oily the result
will be just as you describe; on the other
hand, If you have been applying too
much foundation cream the result would
be that the face powder would appear
too thick and uneven. However, one

A filet mignon is q slice cut from a
tenderloin Of beef. 1t should be cut

pending upon the thickness. When
done, arrange on q hot platter and
cover each filet with soft butter to

Cake Dessert.

Leftover cake can be quickly con-
verted into a delicious dessert. For each
serving cut two rings Of cake the size
Of canned pineapple slices. The bottom
ring may be made up of pieces. Put
them together like q sandwich, with
slice of pineapple between, and pour
over all cuStard sauce In which pine
apple Juice Is used as liquid. A garnish
Of maraSchino cherries makes it at
tractive, and whipped cream may be
used to dress 1t up still more. This des-
sert Is improved by standing for an
hour or longer before 1t Is served.

NY Neighbor Says:

Never leave nsh, unless salted,
soaking in water. Too much
soaking destroys the flavor and
makes the fiSh fiabby.
Do not fry foods in fat that Is
bubbling. All fat should be
without bubbles when anything
Is fried In 1t. Dough dropped
into bubbling fat absorbs it.
If the table silver Is placed In
hot soapsuds Immediately after
being used, and dried with a soft,
clean cloth, much of the work
Of polishing will be saved.
To make a pineapple egg-nog,
beat an egg until it is light

One tablespoonful of juice from
q fresh, ripe pineapple is now
added, q few drops at q time,
and beaten into the egg and milk.
It will not curdle, as pineapple
juice Is not an acid like lemon

Shifting and shopping done by
Harold Gillett and Deputy Tom
Sharp of the sheriff's office, uncov-
cred one of the neatest arranged
distllllng outfits in the county on a
ranch about three miles southeast of
HoltNllle yesterday afternoon.
The sheriff's men were standing
atop large heap of refuse, inhaling
the aroma Of mash fermenting, tant-
aiizing III its apparent nearness and
yet battling as to its location. Sud
denly bright idea dawned. Selling
Il pitchfork which stood nearby, the
men began prodding the pile until
its prongs struck wood, and the
secret was soon solved. The refuse
was thrown to 4 side and q trap door
discovered which led down through
Il series Of tunnels to the object of
their searcl-a copper still which
was even then doing its duty as all
good stills should.
Said still was brought into town
by the officers after ~ full barrels
of mash were dumped out on the
ground
Newell Merritt, owner of the
ranch and outfit was not at home at
the time of this raid, but Sheriff
Gillctt arrived shortly after the cap
ture and remained until Merritt did
show up and brought him to FL Cen
