the Whole .Secret.
'Among ' all the ( jueor features of queer
Industries carried on In queer out-of-tho way
places It would bo hard to find anything
more picturesque than the Thanksgiving har
vest on Block Island.
Though lllock Island Is only thirty miles
off the Rhode Island coast , and lies almost
midway between Montauk point and Point
Judith , the Impression that It makes upon
the visitor Is that of being far removed from
every other part of the country. It Is the
homo of fog and wind and dashing spray.
Down to recent years It was seldom visited
by strangers , but it has been "discovered"
by the Hummer visitor , and from contact
with this Invader Its people are less guileless
* llflf.M * *
marked , go to Boston and Now York , where
their reputation Is known and their flno
qualities appreciated.
Slnco every little farm or plot on the Island
has Its flock of turkeys , and the growing of
the birds Is the principal land occupation of
the place , the harvest Is now .on. Some of
the scenes that are to bo met with are worthy
the brush of a Millet. On days when the
steamer visits the place a stroll of a couple
of miles from the town will bring ono across
a dozen great flocks of turkeys traveling In
droves , llko cattle , toward the harbor. They
are driven by women In short skirts , heavy
shoes , woolen stockings and with queer little
sunbonncts on their heads , or by boys In
nondescript trousers , cowhide boots and
southwcsters , the prevailing male attire.
The drivers stroll along , silently except for
the "cluck , cluck" with which they stir up
a straggler or hasten their flock. The bird *
march along as sedately as their masters and
give the latter llttlo trouble , for they are
well fed and lazy , and one can almost see
the roll of their fat sides beneath the glossy
feathers.
At the landing the sccno Is ono that for
plcturesqueness outdoes even .a Bavarian
gocwe market. The birds stand together In
compact patches of glistening color seques
tered from neighboring flocks by their guard
ing drivers. The buyers move about from
ono group to another examining the turkeys
or haggling with their owners over the price
to be paid. The hum of voices Is now and
then drowned by the resonant "gobble , gob
ble , gobble , " of some red-wattled majordomo
dome or punctured by the sharp "quit , quit , '
of a frightened hen turkey. There Is a pleas
ant stir of life and chatter about It all thai

than they used to ho , They are quaint sea
folk still , mest of them fishermen , and on
land they carry on the Industry which has
brought the Island much renown , and which ,
at this season , especially , gives It a strong
claim on the affections of the American pee
ple.Thl
Thl unique business Is the rearing of the
festive and succulent Thanksgiving turkey.
Rhode Island turkey has a fame as far-
Bprcadtng as that of Philadelphia chicken or
Maryland terrapin. The turkey experts tell
us , too , that thu particular brand ot the
noble American bird produced In this quaint
ocean oasts stands In the same relation to
the ordinary Rhode Islander as that aristo
cratic bird does to his less blue-blooded fel
lows In York state , Jersey and the west.
JOY OF TUB DLOOK ISLANDER.
To the Block Islander turkeys are what his
cattle are to the native of Holttteln or the
the Isle of Jersey the objects ot bis chief
concern and attention , When ono has been
long OUOUBU on the Island to bo familiar with
the earn and attention that Is lavished on Us
turkeys there Is no longer any wonder that
the Block Island gobbler Is the most arrogant
bird on earth or that when turkey la quoted
at 20 cents tbo Block Island brand brings
35 cents , ilost of the blrJs , It may bo re-
is set oft by the blank expanse ot sea ui
about.
A few turkeys are killed and dressed or
the Island , but most of them are driven 01 :
board the steamer and carried ncross to the
mainland a cackling , clucking freight where
they pa&i through n poultry factory and came
out ready to adorn the table. Some ot Ilia
finest In each flock are. always kept through
the winter for the next season's breeding , for
the turkey farmers > .ro careful not to lot
the quality of their stock deteriorate.
CARE OF THE FLOCK.
"How h It 'that your turkeys are always
so largo and fine ? " was asked of one > : ld
farmer who was counting over the fat neil
ol bills ho had Jujt received from the buyer
for his season's work. Ho turned toward
mo with a shrewd Yankee smile as ho an
swered : ,
" 'Caie , care and know how , that's the
liull story. Wo folks over here ban been
rasln' turkeys lor a oonsldelable time and 1
guess wo kn > w most all they Is to It. "
"No doubt jotl do. That's Just ithe point
I was driving at. "
"Wall , care 'ull do It In turkojs Jest as
In everything else , an' If I do say It , wo take
p'tlcular care ot our birds. You can't keep
turkeys up to the mark by any kind of In
breeding , so every few seasons we bring In
n lot of wild Toms and turn 'cm loose. That
keeps up the quality and flavor. All the rest
ot 'the ' secret Is Just In good caie. After the
young turks is hatched out we lot 'cm run
around to themselves so's 'to let 'em gut big ,
strong frames. Then long about mid-Sep
tember cr first of October we shut 'em up In
yards and' coops an' feed 'emon cornmeal
an' fattcnln * grain. You see they can't run
all their meat off 'that w.iy and they take on
weight powerful fast.
"They Is cne thing about It. though , " con
tinued the old man , beginning again to
count his roll. "Wo fellers do have ona
advantage , an' 'that Is they's n , powerful lot
of grasshoppers on this hero Island , and
turkeys seem to take do hppers right well. "
"Grasshoppers ? " I queried , gazing blankly
out across the water. "How did they get
here ? "
The old man laughed.
"That's what ovcrjboly aska , " ho saU , "an1
I 'don't ' set up for to answer. But hoppem
ain't no great swimmers , an' It's a little far
for a hop , o'.cp an' Jump , so I reckon they
Just 'Mowed over , and' , seeln * it was the
finest place on yearth , they Just settled
down 'to ' stay like the rest of us. But
they're mighty good turkey feed , howsum-
ever ; they come an' we don't bear 'em no
grudge , " and the old man chuckled again as
ho thrust his roll of bills Into a capacious
wallet.

. nine IInine Day ,
When , In the year of grace 1030 , sturdy
Governor John Wlntlirop coil the Puritan
colonists of Massachusetts proclaimed and
duly observed a "Public thanksgiving , " they
probably hail little idea of the Importance
which that festival was destined to abtalr. . In
the history of America.
The first Thanksgiving differed very ma
terially from Its successors , In that It was
proclaimed as a fist and not as a feast. Supplies
;
plies hail run short , the ships expected fiom
Fngland wcra delayed , and extinction threat
ened the "governor and company of Massa
chusetts bay in New England. " Winthrop
and his council decided to hold a day of
prajcr and abstinence , "so that ye Lorde bo
propitiated and looho upon his servants with
favor , In that they have humbled themselves
before Him. " Accordlrgly a crier was pent
about the primitive settlement of Charles-
town , and the colonfsta were earh and all
Invited to take part In the fast. Their
cacrlflco met with speedy reward.
Scarcely had the noon hour of the allot'ed
day arrived when the lens-hoped-for ship
made Its welcome appearance In Massachu
setts bay , the cargo was landed , and the fast
was succeeded by a banquet of a port which
must have sojimed Eumotuous Indeed to the
exiles so recently plunged In hunger and
hardship. On the threshold of dreaded win-i
tcr Winthrop and his followers found what
had been a prcscect of fear and peril changed
Into one of happiness and hope. Such wis
America's first Thanksgiving , as celebrated
2C7 years"-jgo ? Thereafter cnch succeeding
Novcmbcj ; vap marked In the ant-als of the
colony by a sjimllar festival of gratitude.
'
HOLIDAY WITH THE EARLY' HUTCH.
But Thnnknslvlng in the early days of our
History v\as \ not confined'to the Now. ITng' tid
pioneers olone. . Just fifteen years after Wln-
throp's proclamation , 1. ei , In 1015 , Governor
Klcft of the Dutch colony , then , known as
NIcuw Amsterdam , but now as New York ,
i ordered the observance- a day of rejoicing
; rnd thanks , "for the rest and peace which
i God had been pleaced .to bestow upon his
uervants. " Thus wo see that the fecal of
Thanksgiving Is not , as generally stippMod ,
I a peculiarly Puritan Institution , but Is
equally derived from the stalwart burghers
of Manhattan Inland.
The next notable Thanksgiving day In his
tory fell In 1753. On that date the Ilrltlsli i
and colonial army , numbering SO.OCO men , and ! i
commanded by General Forbes , attacked and
captured from the FYench , after a fierce
] struggle , Fort Duquonc , at the Junction of
I the Allegheny end Monrngahela rivers. The
liiamo of the p'aco wao changed to Fort Pitt
land was the nucleus of the city of Plttsburg.
I Thus In a special sense the history of the I
great ccoltal of the cal and iron Industries
Is connected with the celebration of Thanks
giving day.
At the same time an the British were con
quering Fort Duqucsne , Whiteflcld , the
] famous Methodbt preacher , o-lled upon all
his adherents In London to Join > i "service of
the English arms on land and sea. " This
British Thanksgiving was , we are told , widely
observed , and awakened Intense enthusiasm ,
not only among the Methodists , but through
out all the different sects. Whltedeld's Idea
was afterward on several occasions revived
In England. For Instance , In 1814 the gov
ernment proclaimed a general thanksgiving
for the victory of Waterloo. Again , t\o
years later , In 1S1C , proclamation was made
of a popular thanksgiving for the restora
tion of peace. After the Crimean war u third
Jubilation of this nature took place.
THE FAST BECAME A FEAST.
But meanwhile , In Now England , what had
been begun as an occasional day of pious
rejoicing , tad assumed the proportions of a
fixed national holiday. In Masfachusetts and
Now Hampshire It was especially popular.
There was at first great latitude In regard
to the day selected for the feast. Governors
proclaimed the chosen date arbitrarily and
no effort was made to keep the anniversary
of Wlnthrop's proclamation. Sometimes
Thanksgiving occurred In July , sometimes In
midwinter. At length , through the cfforin
of the president and professors of Harvard
college. It was practically fixed upon the last
Thursday In November.
The college faculty -wore moved to Interest
themselves In the question by thp foot thnt
the uncertainty regarding the date caused
considerable disorder among their pupils ,
Brys from different states celebrated en dif
ferent days , many of them returning home to
eat the Thanksgiving imcal under their own
roof trees. ' This very undesirable state of
afTalrr. could only the put a stop to , said the
grave Harvard dons , by the formal estab
lishment of'a'uniform < late for the fnast.
The list Thiiisday of the eleventh month
suited hecollegers , and , Influence being
brought to bear upon the colonial governors
of Now England , proclamations wore issued
making thp/t / day the regular Thanksgiving.
THANKSGIVING DAY IN fTHI3 SOUTH.
In the south Thanksgiving , as an annual
festival , lomalnod practically unknown
until , In 1855. . Jho curl us Vlrgln.'an ' con
troversy on the question was precipitated.
This controversy , which Is not generally
known , deserves a brief notice. The gov
ernor of Virginia at the time was ono Johns ,
a patriotic niiil , 'broad-mludcd ' gentleman , whq
had always .yiXcrtalnoJ a revcrenco for the
1'urltnn anniversary which was "by " no ineano
common hoi -w 'Mason ' and DKon's line.

legislature , urgently recommended 'tho recog

But ( 'ho ' legislature of Washington's itato
did not look uron 4110 Now 'England ' holiday
wHh favor. Governor Johns was advised
not 'to'make I la' Tlianksclvlt , ; reclamation ;
and , as he did not do s-o , the matter .was
allowed temporarily to drop. The public
Interest had been awakened , and 'before long
a fierce ddbato was raging In Virginia be
tween the opponents and supporters of the
'proposed ' southern Thai ) . ' < sslvlng. At last ,
In 1S57 , Governor Wlso Johns' successor
took the metaphorical 'bull ' 'by ' the h-rns ,
and Issued a proclamation setting apart a
day for the feast. Hta action cnuasd much
ancry ; criticism , and several southern ncws-
pnpors declared that Thanksgiving was sim
ply "a relic of Puritanic 'bigotry. " In spite
of this , the Innovation was warmly > wel-
coined. The hospitable southerners greeted
gladly another holiday , and the northern
feast s.-on ranhe-3 among them as second In
Importance only Is the "glorious Fourth"
Itt'Olf. ' In 1S5S the year after Wise's
proclamation no less than eight governors
of southern states proclaimed Thanksgiving
In 'their ' sections. The 'war , however , com
ing shortly afterward , practically extin
guished the popularity of the holiday In
Dixie.
AMERICANS CELEBKATE ABROAD.
But It has become a. loved Institution In the
middle , western and northwestern states.
Exiled Americans , too , cling to its celebra
tion , and every November sees Thanksgiv
ing dinners In L-'ndon , Paris , Berlin , Homo
or wherever some of the scattered children
of Uncle Sam may chance to sojourn , In
deed , .Mr. William Aator Chanlrr , the well
known explorer , tells of a Thanksgiving
dinner which ho enjoyed In the very heart
of darkest Africa.
An extensive and highly Interesting volume
might be complied on the subject of Thanks
givings and the events which have slgnall/ed
them. For Instance , on Thanksgiving day ,
1783 , the British army evacuated New York ,
while Washington and Clinton marched Into
the city at the head of the continental army
and took formal possession in the name of
the young republic. Festivities and a grand
display of fireworks closed that memorable
day. Thanksgiving had fallen that year
on December 25 , and the combination of
evacuation day and that festival were long
Jointly honored in New York.
The Thanksgiving day of 1S1G is memora
ble as the occasion upon which an Ameri
can theater was first Illuminated with gas.
I This event happened In Philadelphia. The
experiment ) was n complete success , and the
manager of the affair was Dr. Kugler. Dur
ing the war , of the ibattles and skirmishes
fouglit on Thanksgiving , the most notable
was that of Lookout mountain (1SC3. ( )
A few odd and dfstlnctlvo methods ot
colobrotlng the great holiday still survive In
different parts of the United States , although
the tendency Is 'toward a uniform manner
of rejoicing. In sections ot Connecticut , for
Instance , the "Thanksgiving barrel burning"
la a time honored Institution. For a month
before the day Connecticut boys diligently
collect and store In a. place of security all
the barrels , old or new , which they can
find. All barrels are regarded as the
property of whomsoever can carry them
away. On Thanksgiving night the barrels
are piled In a hugo heap and Ignited. Boya
and girls then dance around the bonfire
until the very last 'barrel ' has gene up In
smoke.
But , however the holiday Is kept whether
with piety and prayer or with feasting and
fervor whether In a spirit of mirth and fel
lowship or In ono of gravity and patriotism
Thanksgiving remains an . anniversary
peculiar to these United States and shared
by them with no other notion on the face
of the globe ,

SALMON Oil LOBSTER CUTLETS.
An Inexpensive and easy way of making
the fish course dressy and of excellent flavor
are cutlets made from canned salmon iir
lobster. Chop a can of salmon fine and mix
thioughout a tcaspoonful of salt , a pinch of
cayenne , Juice of half a lemon acid a tablespoonful -
spoonful of chopped parsley. Bring a cup of
cream to boiling point In the double boiler ,
then stir a tablespoonful of butter that has
been mixed smooth with three of flour. Stir
and cook about three minutes. This will bo
very thick , but must ho so In order to hold
the fish mixture together. Illcnd all thor
oughly , and when cool form Into cutlet shape ,
roll first In egg , then In dried and sifted
bread crumbs and fry In deep boiling fat.
Place on mat of white , soft paper , garnish
with parsley and servo with caper sauce ,
which Is madu by stirring a tablespoonful of
flour Into one of boiling butter ; stir In a
largo cup of boiling water ; it should then
half a cup of hot milk added'then , bcalea
to a pulp , add another bit of butter and send
to the table , heaped lightly In the hot dish.
Do nnt let the potatoes cook while preparing ,
only keep them ve-y hot. A well beaten egg
stirred through these potatoes converts them
into excellent croquette material.
SPINACH.

way far Miperior to the ordinary method , and
as 'It ' Is very simple and this voge able lo to

well to introduce It at the beginning of the
season. When the spinach I * ? boiled thor
oughly tender and properly salted , of course
free fiom every trace of grit , It Is to bo.
thrown In the- colander and well drenched
with cold water. This gives it a certain
firmness and delicacy obta'ncd In no other
