AN ELECTRIC BANQUET.
Aa Oreaalon on Which an Entire Meal
W t ook ail uv Kloetrioit j.
A highly Interesting event mark
ing anoiher step in the application of
electricity to human needs, occurred
recently in Ottawa. Canada. It was
nothing less than an "electrical ban
quet "in which every d.sh on the
table was cooked by electricity. The
affair look place at the Windsor House,
and was participated in by the mayor
of the city, several electrical notabili
ties pro mi nont ciliens. newspaper
men ami railroad oillcials. 'J ho menu
comprised a great variety of dishes,
an J would havo done no discrqillt Id
Deimonieo's, The whole bill of lare
or the banquet had been gotten up in
'"the oven at the olovtrlcal car sued,
during the day. and brought down to
the hotel In a special car. After the
repast the party were taken in an
'electric car to tho car shodsWhera
tne oven was inspected aud the V
Process explained.
A local paper gives the follow?!
description of the cooking apparatij
I lie oven is ol brick, about si ffbt
wide, and somewhat deeper," find
about six feet high. In the lower
part ol the oven are two Ahearn heat
ers fed by a wire from the C'haudiere
Electric Light company, giving a
power of fifty volt. There is no
water about this system as in the
house heating. It is just the dry
heat The maximum warmth pro
duced by the two heaters is literally
Bufllcient to roast an ox, so inteuso is
It, but of course can be modified away
down, and that easily. The beauty
of the new system is that everything
o cooked is done equally all '.hrousrh.
There is no scorching in one part and
half-doneoess in another part. To
avoid loss of heat by opening and
shutting of tho oven door in cooking
there are at the side of the doors
peepholes, as it were, protected by
heavy plate glass. Tho progress of
cooking can thus be watched without
disturbance to the articles being
cooked" The same paper states that
this -banquet" was the first instance
In the history of the world of an en
tire meal being cooked by electricity.
Mud It th.
Mud baths were common among the
ancienta the mud on the seashore and
the slime of rivers being especially
prized for this purpose. The Tartars
and Kgyplians still use them in cer
tain diseases. They . are taken by
many people at places on the conti
nent of Kurope, among which may he
named Driburg. Eileen. Xeundorf.
I'yrmont Spa, Marienbad, Franzens
braun. Kger. Kissingen and Teplitz.
Sky Top Like.
The true Indian name of Lake Mo
honk is Moggonck. and its meaning
Is the -On the great Sky Top." Sky
Top. as persons familiar with the
region about Lake Mohonk are aware.
Is the mountain upon which the Lake
is situated. Sky Top, by the way. is
an apt and picturesque name for the
mountain, for it is outlined with pecu
liar distinctness when seen from cer
tain points of view.
