I often wished to have on my table the famous pudding which accompanies "the roast beef of old England," but in my modern American kitchen I had no way of suspending a roast over the batter whilo cooking. Besides my taste ran to light fluffy things made with baking powder, and my one attempt at using the old English recipe for York shire pudding turned out a heavy, soggy affair. One day I used a little ingenu ity with my recipe and since then the pudding has been a welcome addition to a roast beef course in my home. I take a pint of sweet milk, a pinch of salt, three beaten eggs, a teaspoonful of baking powder, and enough flour to make a batter of the consistency of .pancake batter. I pour about one fourth of a cupful of hot gravy from the roast into a hot dripping pan, put the batter in, letting the fat gravy spread to the sides of the pan, and then I scatter more gravy over the batter in little puddles, and bake it twenty min" utes in a hot oven. Cut into squares with a heated knife and served with the roast beef as hot a3 possible, it is very palatable. '-The January Housekeeper. Last week J. C.

The overwhelming sentiment among members of the legislature appears to favor the creation of a board of pardons and there is therefore little doubt that legis lation will be enacted along that line. While the record oJ; Gover nor Mickey in liberating criminals from the penitentiary undoubted ly has much to do in shaping this sentiment and will have the effect of hastening action upon; the part of the law making body, such legislation would have been asked for in any event. Those who have made a study of crim inology and prison matters are practically unanimous in their advocacy of the pardon board law, which has been found to work most satisfactorily in the states where it is in force.

Yesterday he was about the city looking up old timers that he met and did business with twenty and twenty five years ago. He inquired after W. T. Canada, who was manager of the theater when he appeared here first some twenty four years ago and who is now claim agent for the Union Pacific. He asked after the late Col.F. P. Ireland, who. went on the stage the first night and played a short piece of music which he repeated after him. He also looked after John Price, colored, whom he heard playing on his violin, the first day he was here and that night gave an imitation on the piano. He found John and at his request John occupied a promi nent seat at the Overland last evening and listened to Blind Boone playing, imitating that old fiddle which he had not heard for twenty-four years. He did many other things which clearly proved to those who seen him that he had a wonderful memory. Blind Boone has been on the road for twenty-seven years and during that time has accumulated a for tune. He has. built a fine home, at his birthplace in Missouri, "and there he spends his time when not on the road. He and his manager reside in the same town and both are immensely wealthy. Nebr.
