BARELY MISSES
LYNCH MOB

YREKA, Cal, Sept. 3 UN.S0.
With the lynching of an innocent
man narrowly averted, posses
pressed their manhunt along the
California oregon border today on
the cold trail of John and Coke
Brite, half.breed Indians wanted
for the Staying Of three men in
the Siskiyou Mountain wilderness.
At the same time, the violent
feeling that has gripped this city
since two veteran peace officers
and a civilian were maSsacred
Sunday flared in the open, when
a juror at the coroner'S inquest
warned District Attorney James
Davis that he himself stands in
danger of lynching for his state
mentS in connection with the case.
Davis indicated today he was
withdrawing his offer of partial
immunity" to the wanted men in
return for their surrender, and
that he would consider the filing
of murder charges instead of the
manslaughter charges he had said
he would file.
Narrow Escape
BY speaking a few words in Fin
niSh, his native language, John
Soynig, prospector, ex-convict, and
double" of the hunted John
Brite, escaped by a hairs breadth
from the threat of lynching by en-
ragged citizens.
Posses captured Soynig last
night Is miles south of here, and
fearing mob violence spirited him
to EdgeWood, 80 miles away.
Word of the capture spread
and scores of automobiles con-
verged on the Edgewood road
house where Soynig was being
questioned by Sheriff w. G.
Chandler.
Accused by Woman
Highway patrolmen, armed with
tear gas bombs, were thrown
about the place.
IT am not John Brite," the
frightened prisoner kept repeat
ing.
Mrs. Chester Barton, wife of
the postmaster at Horse Greek
and neighbor of the BriteS, con-
fronted the suspect. She declared
positively:
"YOu are John Brite. You
know me. For Gods sake tell
them who you are and they'll
get you out of here. You mustn't
go back to Yreka."
Suddenly the prisoner overcame
his terror and blurted:
"John Brite doesn't speak
Finnish. / do"
He burst into a torrent of
words which poSSeman identi,
fled as Finnish.
Sheriff Chandler, while patrol
men held the crowd back, spirited
the mistake" prisoner out of the

Dinner
AS
Main Dish

Stuffed vegetables served as the
main dish for the evening meal
are gaining in popularity. Onions,
turnips. eggplant. cabbage. green
peppers and potatoes take on a
new personality when served in
this way.
Vegetables which are to be
stuffed should first be scalded and
since it usually takes longer to
cook the meat used in the stuffing
1t Is wise to have it at least partly
cooked. In this recipe for egg
plant minced ham adds the dis
tinctive flavor in a wholesome
combination.
Eggplant Stuffed With Ham
/ medium egL plant.
u cup minced ham.
" cup minced onion.
3 tablespoons shortening.
/ green pepper.
/ teaspoon paprika.
u cup bread crumbs.
Parboil the eggplant for 10 min
utes in sailed water after splitting
it. Do not peel. Drain and dice
the center of the eggplant and
combine with the following: Saute
the onion and the minced pepper
in the shortening, add the crumbs
and the seasoning. Stuff the COM
bination in the eggplant shells,
cover the crumbs, dot with butter,
and bake for 20 minutes at $50

Set ASIDE Day

Every housewife who does her
own work is familiar with the
old refrain of on Monday, we
wash, on Tuesday, we iron, and
so on through the week Of
sewing, cleaning. baking and
marketing.
Every day brings its appointed
task in the well-regulated house
hold, but to do all these things
and do them we'll requires a
different type of day that for
lack Of better designation we
will call Tinker Day.
Every home needs such day

brass and pewter Shine-and to
make all ailing articles and house
keeping equipment feel and act
better.

How to Select
Fresh Fish

Nowhere in the country can one
obtain better fish than in Wash.
ington markets and on the wharfs.
As q tissue and bone building
material it is unexcelled and has
the added advantage of being an
economical food.
Why not use it at least once q
week? The variety Of fish on the
present market is wide and
methods Of preparation different
and pleasing.
A few hints on fish cookery may
not come amiSs to the average
housewife.
When boiling white fish add q
little lemon Juice or vinegar. This
keeps the flesh firm and white.
When fish comes from the mar
ket, remove at once from the
paper, II it has, not been cleaned
do so at once. Wash very
thoroughly and place in . covered
dish in cold place.
Cook fish just as soon as pos
Sible after you bring 1t from the
market.
The following pointers will be
helpful in selecting fish,
The eyes should be bulgy, bright
and shiny.
The flesh should be firm and
the gills q reddish color.
For fresh fish try fish steaks
in this manner:
2 fish steaks about one pound
each
" cup flour
2 medium size onions
2 teaspoons salt
6 strips bacon
11a cups milk
" teaspoon pepper
8 tablespoons cooking fat.
Sprinkle steaks with pepper,
salt and flour. Place steaks in
frying pan and cover with the
milk and put in q hot oven. Cut
the onions in thick slices and
Saute in hot fat until o light
brown (try to fry onions without
breaking).
After fish has baked 10 min
utes remove from the oven, cover
slices with the onion rings and
lay strips Of bacon across each
piece Of fish. Return to the oven
and continue baking until fish is
done, about 10 to Is minutes. This
will serve four,
Pike, bass, pickerel and trout
are best for baking. Cut off the
head, fins and tail. Remove
bones. Wash inside and out with
salt water. Season with salt and
pepper and bake. Stuffed fish
is very good and a good fish dress
ing is made with:
8 cups bread crumbs
stalk Of celery, chopped
Sage to taste
teaspoon lemon Juice
! teaspoon chopped onion
tablespoons melted shortening.
Salt and pepper generously.
Soften bread by pouring hot
water over It. Add other ingre-
dents and then stuff fish and
fasten fish together with tooth,
picks and bake,

a few boiled shrimp to the fish
to improve the flavor. If oysters
are used, they must be sauted in

put into buttered shells or rame-
kins, cover with buttered crumbs
