A delicious and appropriate salad for an
after-the-theater supper Is made of pine
apple rut In small squares and covered
either with mayonnaise or French dressing-.
This Is vry attractive served In the
scojpel-out shell. The dressing ran be
marie and plnaapple cut In advance, so all
that remains to be done after the theater
Is a hasty mlilng- togrther.
As a rule, a sweet la not necessary for n
late supper, fake, coffee and cheese make
a very good dessert. If more Is desired,
howver, use a gelatin or charlotte rune,
which are easier to serve than Ice cream.
A really delightful ru per after the thea
ter may be readily man.-iged in one's own
home nrd w I; h much , ss expense- than at
one of Uie hot ! or down town cafra.
The lmst ss so . litnrtalnlng may arrange
the 'l'iimlw I fore IcavlriK the house; th
tuhle may t,r. set an.l everything left in
readiness. Where only a few are to be
entertained ti e rhuflug ulsh affords one of
the most popular Methods of preparation.
There nre many, however, who do not use
the chafing; dish and for these the same
i dishes may he prepared In the kitchen and
brought to the table.
There are scores of dishe for this sort
of supper tliut are not d ffloult to prepare
ani anion the most popular Is the Welsh
rarblt, a good r'cjlpt for which follows:
Cut a thin slice of bread lenitthwlso from
a stHlo loaf; trim away the crust and have
It trusted a ll'lit Kohlnn color; lay It on a
lnntf. narrow ilish and keep It warm.

mustard, h arpo pinch of pepper, a clash of
cayenne. Mix this over the hluze, stir until
It Is smoothly melted and forms Into a
creamy mixture; remove from the flame
and add one wril-heaten egg and turn out
on the toast.
This mokes but a small amount.
And these dishes need not necessarily be
expensive. Such Ingredients as are not un
common to the average refrigerator may
be combined in most palatable and really
dainty offerings. Huch a dish la a frica
eee of cold roast beef.
Some slices of cold roast beef, one onion,
a bunch of parsley, three-quarters of a
pint of gravy, yolks of four mekb. the Juice

stir quickly for a moment and turn the
fricassee Into a hot dish.
If the flavor of '.he Bhallot Is liked, ths
dish can be previously rubbed with It.
The oyster season la nearly over, but
oysters are still to be had, and nothing is
Dior desirable for a supper dish.
Put In a chafing dish Ave ounces of but

of BngllKh mustard. Mix these thoroughly.
,Add a stalk of celery chopped tine. Pour

Indoors. The vines are to be uncovered
and the flower beds rnrdo and the lawn
raked off. But perhaps the most perplex
ing problem of the yard Is the little golden
dandelion that so persistently studs the
lawn and gives a yard an unkept appenr
ance. The Woman's club of Hastings.
Neb., It making very successful war on
this beautiful little nuisance by an up-to-date
and scientific meane. Correspondence
with th agronomist of an eastern college
socured the following formula, which Is
being generally applied and with gratifying
results:
lMssolve two pounds of sulphate of iron
In gallon of water and add about two and
one-half ounces of sulphuric acid. For
large quantities. It Is about right to dis
solve a lKi-pound sack of sulphate In a
fifty to flfty-t wo-tallon barrel of water.
And after thoroughly mixing same add ten
pounds of sulphuric acid. Care should be
exercised In the use of the sulphuric acid,
it being a poison. This Is a solution that
can be sprinkled or sprayed upon the sur
face It la desired to treat. For an ordina-y
l.iwn or yard a sprinkling can may be
used, while for larger areas It would be
advisable to secure regular spraying ma
chines, such as were used In experiments
on a large scale.
It haa been suggested by the women using
the formula that unless tho dandelion has
gotten a good start. It would be well to
treat each little plant separately until one
becomes thoroughly familiar with the
strength and effecta of the solution. Dry
weather Is the best time to apply the solu
tlon, and where used In yards where people
have allowed a horse or cow to graze It
will be well to keep these off until after a
rain. Two or three applications of the
solution should kill the weeds.
solutly no hint of the terma or mariner
In which the answers will tie couched, no
authority to correct them If they are
unsatisfactory, and no means of pro
tecting herielf from them If they are
Improper. In this conviction I nmy add
that the women cf my acquaintance are
more considerate In their manner to
their servants than to their relatives and
friends, and for the best of reasons they
are more likely to lose the first-mentioned
through Inadvertence than the Inst, and It
Is practoally or far more Importance to
consult their Idiosyncrasies. Finally, I have
never heard a woman of my acquaintance
speak to her own servant with the brusque
ness and an uncompromising correction that
you may hear almost any man use toward
his office boy or even clerk unless she
risked or wished the loss of the servant."

The best way of reducing gas bills la to
Veep the stove clean. If hot. grease and
dust will collect In the burners and clog
up the openings, so that the fresh air can
not mingle freely with the gas. and In this
way the fuel In wasted, because much of
the energy Is lost from lack of air.
The flame, Instead of burning blue. Is
yellow or red. nn Indication that much heat
Is being lost because there Is not enough
air.
The best method Is cleaning burnera Is
to remove them from the stove, and either
boll In hot water and washing soda, or
wash through hot water with strong laun
dry soap that will cut the grease from the
Iron and frre the opening from any sub
stance that might clog them.
While hot and before ihey are thoroughly
dry. rub crude oil on them and put back
In place.
The burners In the oven may be cleaned
In the same way, If a woman understands

burners properly.
Are Women I'nklnd to Women?
Among the theories reported by Josephine
Daskam Bacon In the American Magazine
Is that held by men who, she asserts, are
convinced. Individually and aa a class, that
women are unkind to women and that a
combination of tactlessness and slave driv
ing la responsible for the trouble.
"It la my duty regretfully to Inform my
brother that he la wrong," says Mrs.
Baron. "I am the more regretful because
I fear that this conviction on the part of
the men of America Is nevertheless nearly
Ineradicable, and because until I or some
one else haa eradicated It they will refuse
to turn their attention to the real difficulty,
and until they do this and establish a prac
tical wnrklnc system of domestic, service,
putting- It on the basts of the other systems
for whose suooess they are responsible, I
fear It will not be dona.
"While It 'would be Impossible to deny
the existence of selfish, exacting; Ill
mannered women, and while I am quite
ware that they are likely to be badly
served, the fact remains that some of the
most sensible, tactful and really kind
hearted women of my acquaintance have
suffered most cruelly from their utter In
ability to get or keep a reasonable num
ber of servants to do a reasonable
amount of work for a reasonable compensa
tion. One has but to sit for an hour In
almost any employment bureau to ob

the average woman of moderate means

employe. Her whole' method of quentioni
criticism and correction, Indeed, Is ne
cessarily tentative, because she has ab-

Wot one piece of embroidery at a time.
Finish this first article before a second
piece Is put Into the water. Do not rub
soap on the embroidery. Make a Jelly of
one teaspoonful of good washing powder;
pour boiling water on the washing powder
and boll till the Jelly forms. With this
Jelly make a suds and wash the article
carefully. Squeeze the piece In the hands
and do not use a washboard. In case the
linen, or material on which the embroidery
has been worked, has become stained, rub
some of the Jelly upon the spots and wash
again. This Jelly will take the stains out
of the fabric and will not Injure, In the
least, the embroidery threads. Rinse the
article In water, the same temperature as
was used for washing. Shake the water
out and roll the article In a dry towel,
squeezing out all the moisture possible.
Place the laundered piece face, or right
side, down on a flannel blanket or other
pad which has been covered with a piece
of smooth cotton or linen cloth. Cover the
article with a dry cloth and Iron till dry.

First carefully dust the leather, Uven
wipe with warm water, using cure to re
move all soiled spots and dirt. Wipe dry,
and then wipe over with a black cloth

with Its bulk of warm water. Ajiothcr
way Is to pour a half cupful of boiling
water over two tablespoonfuls of flax seed
and bring- to a boiling point. Strain out the
seeds, and when cool apply with a cloth to

Congressman Sherman of ew Terk
Also Declines to Dlsonsa Any

NE7W TORK. April 8. Speaker Cannon
said tonight he had no personal knowledge
of the controversy between President !
Roosevelt and E. H. Harrlman Mr. Can
non, who arrived here today from a trip to
the West Indies, Venezuela and Tanama,
made this statement tonight when pressed
for an opinion about the matter. Mr.
Cannon explained that he had not yet had
time to read the papers carefully and had
nui orvome iuny miormen aa 10 me nature
of the disagreement. While on board the
Bleucher on the return voyage the speaker
refused to allude to the Roosevelt-Harrl-man
affair In any way. It Is announced.
Mr. Cannon Is enthuslnstlc over his trip.
"I had a Jolly holiday," he said. "I en
Joyed every minute and set my watch back
every time I thought of It. I never felt
better In my life."
With several other congressmen, the
speaker waa the guest of Congressman
MrKlnley of Illinois on the trip. They
visited all the Important places In the
West Indies and devoted seme time to an
Inspection of the I'annma canal. Of ths
work on the canal Speaker Cannon said:
"I was mighty well pleased and agreeably
surprised, aa waa every member of our
party, with the progress of the Panama
canal. It Is a mere question of work,
which Is being done rapidly under a splen
did system. If I was paying for the Job
myself I would slap the boys on the back
and say: 'Hustle along and get the dirt
out." "
Hopes for Continued Prosperity.
The speaker was asked If he would not
comment on some other phase of the recent
news. Answering all the questions, he said:
"I have been absent from the t'nltcd
States since the adjournment of congress
on March 4 and have been literally without
news as to the events that have occurred
since that time.
"I am Informed that there have been
great fluctuations in the prices of securi
ties, and I am gratified that the situation
is changing for the better. I hope and
believe that nothing will occur to Inter
fere with production and commerce In the
broadest sense.
"I feel assured that when the time ar
rives to decide on the continuance or
change In our fiscal, commercial and In
dustrial policies the people will successfully
and Justly solve all the problems that may
be presented."
Speaker Cannon said the present depres
sion in Wall street did not In any way
represent the condition of the country.
Values, he said, are Just as good as ever,
and the country's resources Just as abun
dant. The speaker held a farewell reception on
the pier when the ship docked.
Congressman James 8. Sherman was a
member of the party. When asked con
cerning the campaign contributions of the
fall of 1904. he said:
"Gentlemen, I am now giving a correct
Imitation of a sphynx."
When Speaker Cannon took Ms place
before the customs Inspector to make his
declaration, he said:
'Yes, I have a few articles to declare.
Here Is a necklace, rare, very rare. It's
for my grand daughter and It coat 26 cents.
Here Is a collection of beads, also rare,
costs AO cents. I guess that lets me out."

scatter salt over It. The soot adheres to the
salt when It Is brushed up lightly, and ths
carpet Is left perfectly clean. The salt should
be thoroughly brushed out of the carpet after

Sunday morning. Ten curs were occupied
by Uie horses. They were unloaded and

yards. The work of unloading and loading
was meat Interesting to the stockmen The

of tliem fought their drivers as hard as
they could. Some were literally pushed

l.ld Is On Tlsrht.
Tor the first time in a year there were
no arrests In Smith Omaha for breaches
of the Slocumb law and no saloons open.
Many times there have been no arrests,
but It Is pretty well known that the saloons
were open. The determination erhlblted by
the new board has had much to do with
the attitude of the saloon men. They have
come to realize that the new board is not
to be trifled with. The season of ths re
newal of licenses Is now at hand and many
of the men are applying for a renewal.
The great majority have always abided by
the law. Of the eighty-six saloons last
year not more than a drsen have been
persistent In selling on Sunday.

SIX FEET OF SNOW ON LEVEL
Condition In Which a Pioneer Found
Omaha Forty Years
Ago.
Forty years ago today Rev. J. M. Cald
well, a Baptist minister who lives at 270S
North Twentieth street, crossed the Ice on
the Missouri river In a four-horse gta.ge
coach with twenty passengers when the
snow was six feet on the level.
"I recall many peculiar Incidents of the
trip as viewed at the present time," said
Mr. Caldwell. "I was then an active min
ister and came to Omaha to attend a Bap
tist conference, which waa held In the old
First Baptist church on the site of the old
postoftlce at Fifteenth and Dodge streets.
We arrived In Council Bluffs April 7, 1S67.
and crossed the river to Omaha In a rickety
old stage coach over the Ice. Twenty pas
sengers were squeezed Into the palatial ac
commodations of the coach and the snow
cams up to a level with ths windows.
"Omaha was then pretty much of a fron
tier town, but boisted of several substan
tial buildings. The conference only laated
one day and the weather waa bitter cold,
We returned to Council BlufTs the follow
ing day, when a bllzxard was still raging."
Mr. Caldwell bought lands In western Ne
braska about the tlms of his early visit,
but has since exchanged the property for
Omaha real estate and haa lived In the city
, for the last six months. He has been In the
Baptist ministry for forty-five years, but
Is now engaged In evangelistic work.
Ha Is of the opinion that the winters of
long ago were much colder and accom
panied with more snow than In late years.

"Well, guess I'll catch the next train and

The young man had just applied for a

Magistrate Pryce Crawford seated him
self in the chair of responsibility and honor
at the people's bat Monday morning and
looked over the sea of faces which greeted
him with upturned eyes, prepared to listen
with patience to the regular routine of
woeful tales and sad. t'pturned were the
eyes of all of them, but not nil of them
were seeing. Many of the optics couldn't
see. They were swelled shut and discol
ored. They were Jet blnck. with purple,
red and blue borders, beautiful specimens
of puglllstlo art. When his honor looked,
he at first thought he was suffering from
spots before the eyes, hut as they re
mained stationary and were very numer
ous, he realized there had evidently been
some fighting done since last the august
tribunal held session.
The most artistic decoration was that
possessed by Katie Crandall. Hers was a
masterpiece. She was one of the first of
the line to answer the roll call, and stood
before the court to charge George Bruner,
18 Nicholas street, with having been the
accomplished artist He begged to be al
lowed time to secure witnesses to prove
he had been given sufficient provocation,
but as there had been no witnesses to the
eye decoration his honor did not care to
wait.
"Your honor, for seven years I have been
good to this woman, sent her to the hos
pital when she was sick, supported her
when she had no work, been her frU-nd
when she had no friends, and when I came
home yesterday I found her trifling with a
strange man. He ran away and I nailed
her In the eye," was Bruner's explanation.
Bruner was up on two charges of fighting,
the two coming In succession. His honor
looked at the two complaints, and then
carefully observed the delicate tints, the
full round swelling over Katie's off eye.
It surely was well performed. It even
spread its glow to its neighbor, and a little
of the skin was removed from the nose and
Hps in small patches. No. there was no
need of further witnesses. These signs
spoke louder than words, but they will be
long removed ere Bruner completes the
thirty days his honor ordered him to spend
In the county Jail.
