l.rclslnllvc Action Needed.
Thu 60tti anniversary of the llattlr ot
t'tUsbtirg will bo celebrated upon the
uttlellcld ut liettyshurg, Pa., July 1-1.
I'll!. It will not ho u celebration of u war
victory, but one ot ponce. It will ! a
ominetnoratlon ot that brotherly feeling
Milch to day knows no sectionalism. No
ther love than that which Invites us as
no m devotion to our country. And on
ihe battlelleld whero so many thousands
of the brave men of the Nin th and South
Melded their lives In the eauso which
each espoused, the men of the union and
. onf' dciate armies ale to gather, to pay
respect to the memor. of our comrades
Who fell there iiwl I'th'W mil- fealty to
our grand lepubllc . i .is fin;.
The celebration will lie under tho atis
pices of tho rnlted Slates goMTiimetit
and the State of Pennsylvania, who have
each appointed commissions. Some of the
other States have arranged for roprc
entallon. others will lo so when their
Legislature meet till? coming fall and
Inter.
It Is the special purpose to have In at
tendance as many survivors ol both ar
mies ns possible of tho-'e who partici
pated In that Rreat battle, including such
.rganlzatlons as weie held In reserve and
m.ni, HtatP It Is expected will arrange
'or free transportation from their homes
o GcttvsbiirB and return of such citi
zens as are now resident In the States
who were participants In this battle.
It Is contemplated that the United
States government will furnish rations,
tents, cots and blankets, free ot charge
o these veterans.
The sanitary hospital arrangements will
be ns perfect as modern science penults.
The 62nd Congress made a generous
provision in bill P. ti,M4, "authorizing and
directing the secretary of wa- to make
(trtnln provisions for the care of par
ticipants In the celebration of the frith
anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg,
Pennsylvania, on tho first, second, third
and fourth days of July, nineteen nun
dred and thirteen, and malting appropria
unnfn sum sufficient to carry out pro
visions of this bill."
The war department have made a sur
vey and submitted to the committee plans
as directed by the secretary of war, to
make all neoes.--.iry provisions for the
care and entertainment of the veterans.
To provide sufficient supply of good
water, necessary sewerage. Sanitation
with hospital service for the health and
accommodation of persons attending on
such occasion.
To provldo and furnish necessary camp
and garrison equipment for the visiting
eterans of tho Civil War, together with
all necessary rations and surplus fr
uch veterans during the celebration.
Vermont had a larger number of troops
present at Gettysburg than at any other
point during the war. The Mist and sec
ond brigades of infantry, the llrst regi
ment of cavalry, and three companies of
sharpshooters.
The executive committee ot tho Penn
sylvania commission have in charge the
matter of arranging with the railroad and
steamboat companies for a reasonable
vissenirer rate trom all partw of the
rnlted States.
It Is not expected nor desired that this
fhall be In any sense a military celebra
tion, but that its purpose is to commem
orate universal peace as the crowning
ichicvement of Christian civilization and
la tho fulfillment ot the Ideals of the
founders of the colony upon whose soli
Mils national anniversary Is held, and to
Jedieate or at least to lay the corner
Hono of a permanent peace memorial,
Including a statue of 7'rislclent Lincoln.
Governor George II. Prouty appointed
nr representative Col. lleman W. Allen.
who met with the commissions from the
Vnited States government and from the
Kveral States In 1010 fit Gettysburg,
Where plans were discussed.
The second meeting of the commission
was held at Washington in May of this
year. Representatives were present from
nearly all the States and Territories,
North, South, Hast tind West, much en
thusiasm lias manifested and it was
trongly urged that those States which
aad not already done so malt" such ap
pioprlatlons us will cnablo the veterans
in large numbers to make tho trip to
tlettvfburg and participate In the great
lelcbratlon.

larly of aged people, and then steals
'rom them. A short while ago sho took
lewelry valued at thousands of dollars
''om a Boston woman and was arrested

ilngton. Another favorite trick of hers
..as to drug the patients and then leave

on 11 charge of stealing an overcoat from
Walter 15. Gould, a student, and the lat
ter for threatening to burn some of the

Lamotte pleaded not guilty nnd vim
bound up It. $-VK ball, which he could not

bright and admitted that ho had been
ln the Insane asylum for treatment. Ho
had also been arrested ln this city on
various occasions. He said that he had
110 Intention ot burning any buildings
but wished to be sine of employment
and took this method of enforcing his
demand.
Dumont pleaded guilty to taking tho

to be rather extenuating ho was fined

MORE GREEN TEA DRUNK.
MiihnnmirilniiM of Central Asia Use It
ii n it Stimulant.
Reports from Russia say that the de
mand for green tea Is Increasing to an
extraordinary extent. Nearly 20 times
ns much green tea was imported last
year as In ISot.
Tea brokers say that tins consumption
of green tea In Kngland is Infinitesimal.
The principal consumption Is In Morocco,
where It Is tho universal drink of all
classes, ln Portugal and Persia also
there Is a market for tho finest green
tea. There Is an enormous consumption
of It in Canada and the United States.
Tho Moors take It with all their meals.
They put six leaves of mint and six
lumps of sugar In the pot with the tc.i
nnd brew all together. Tho Moors drink
It so largely because their food Is fari
naceous and the tea acts as a corrective.
They drink It In glasses and without
milk.
Many people ate more susceptible to
tho effects of green tea than to coffee
as a stimulant. The Russian Increase Is
dun to the Mohammedans ot Central Asia,
who drink green tea because It Is u
stimulant anil their religion forbids the
rso of Intoxicants.
(Ireen tea Is dear this season, partly
because America Is paying such high
prices for It. New York Sun.

The reat scckel pears are so smooth,
sweet and delicious that they are prefer
ably eaten uncooked by most peoplo,
when in perfect condition as to ripeness.
There ate some small pears which so re
semble the. seckels that they are some
times confused with the genuine. These
need to bo baked to give best satisfac
tion. Also tho genuine seckel pear Is at
Its best but a few days, hence If we liave
many of them wo will need to use some
In various ways to prevent waste by de
cay after ripening perfectly.
Take sound, small pears and wipe very
clean, then remove blossom and put
them In a broad, shallow granite pan,
allow half a cup of sugnr and a cup of
water for two quarts of pears. Haste
with the syrup frequently, and let them
bake slowly until soft. Serve with cream.

Sweetbreads lequlre too great an ex
penditure to be regarded as a culinary
possibility by many housekeepers, ln
such cases, however, a tasty ami very
deceptive substitute may be found In
either sheep's or calves' brains, and ono
method of preparing them Is ns follows:
Cleanse and boll the calves' brains I'ntll
tender; then drain them, chop theni Into
small pieces, and boll them for a few
minutes In nicely se-.isnnsed white sauce.
Snmo peas, or canned mushrooms that
have been cut into small pieces, may be
added If desired. Serve on buttered
toast, or In pattycases, garnished with
minced pnrsley. If the less costly sheep's
brains aro to be utilized, wash them care
fully, and boll them In well seasoned
stock, or gravy, until they have become
firm, but do not let them break. At this
point remove tho brains from the water,
and when they have grown quite cold,
divide the lobes', cover them with egg
and bread crumbs, nnd fry them lu but
ter until they have browned satisfac
torily. Then serve with either white or
brown sauce. If the latter Is used, gar
nish with bits pf lemon; If tlie former,
with peas, or with sliced mushrooms and
chopped parsley.
STI FFED "pitt'NES.

BIRDS.
H Is true there should be some cam
used In tho selection of game birds. You
would not wclcomo In your house, If you
had to dress and cook them, the very
I ramy birds that are sometimes served at
rates nnd hotels. The smell of theso
long-kept birds Is too much for the or
dinary housewife. But there Is no need
of buying such gamy birds. A young
partridge Is good eating before It has.
been kept for weeks, nnd the same Is truo
of woodcock and quail. Select younif
birds that arc sweet and you will make
no mistake.
TO RKIHVK TIIK GAMY Pf.AVOK.
Thcte Is to nil wild meat a certain
llavor that Is not found In dotmstlc
btrds. In some kinds this Is moro mark
ed than others, but In all cases It can
he reduced to a minimum If you desire,
by parboiling tlie game in water In
which you have placed a half do.en
potatoes, peeled and unaltered. Throw
the potatoes away, ns they will be too
strongly Impregnated with tho ganin
flavor to be of use.
The parboiling of game birds Is to a
certain extent a trick ot tho trade In
some restaurants that advertise to servo
at all hours of the day or evening roast
partridges, etc. In 20 minutes nfter you
give your order you will have tho part
ridge before you. but 20 minutes repre
sents Just the time It was roasted. It
had been previously parboiled until well
cooked, and thon hastily browned In the
ovui to meet your wants.
PAUTIUDGi: TlfNTTCIVS STYLE.
As an emergoncy dish, a partridge that
has been well parboiled Is most excel
lent. It may bo roasted a fow minutes,
as Indicated above, or It may be served
"Hunter's style,'' as Indicated ln the
menu above. When to be cooked ln tho
latter way, split the bird as for broil
ing before parboiling. Place In a stew
pan a small piece of butter, and brown
over a quick fire. Add th purtridge,
nfter parboiling, and brown well on both
sides. (You may dust It lightly with flour,
if you prefer.) Thicken tho butter left
ln the pan with two tablespoons of flour,
and then add enough of I ho liquor In
which the bird was parboiled to make the
sauco of the required consistency. Four
over the partridge nnd serve hot. P. Q.
Adams.
STt'FFED TOMATO SALAD.

CRACKER PUDDING.
The tollowlng recipe, ns, will be soon,
contains no molnses, although some use
both molassts nnd sugar. About elx
crackers, one quart milk, soak well. Ono
egg, sennt cup of sugar, aliout a cup
of raisins. Spice to taste with nutmeg,
cinnamon and a little salt. If eaten with
out sauco It might have a rounding cup
of sugar. Serve with or without sauce.
We do not like It too sweet, so we servo
without sauce nnd use the scant cup of
sugar, as' above and not the rounding,
or even level.

A0TOR TEASED INVENTOR.
Warn a Pne. Stuart Ilohson Plaited
.. F. II. Morse's llalr.
Henry Stuart, or, as ho was better
known later ln his professional life,
Stuart Robson, was when a boy n page
In the United States rnpltol during the
time of some of our greatest statesmen
Henry Clay, Calhoun, Douglas, and
others of that eventful epoch In the his
tory of our country. Serving with him ln
the same capneity was Arthur P. Gor
man, who later was for years a distin
guished senator from Maryland.
The rules governing those youngsters
were not very strict In the rnpltol ln
those days. When they were not run
ning; errands for the members they were
usually up to some mischievous pranks.
There was at this time an old white
haired man with a long, flowing beard
who untiringly called and waited
through long, wearlsomo sessions try
ing to persuade the lawmakers to assist
him In a foolish Invention called the
telegraph. Often he spent the day wait
ing patiently, and would fall asleep.
Then, llko rats, when all Is still, out
came the pages, Robson nt their head,
and as the Inventor slept, dreaming of
wnilds to conquer, the boys would use
the pink ribbons with which the bills
nrn genersily tied and plait tho old
man's heard, adorning tho ends with
these ribbons. This added much to the
amusement nf the pages, as well as of
the Idle members of Congress when
their personal bills were not up for dis
cussion. On his awakening the old mnn seldom
was cross, but would smilingly go after
the boys with his cane.
Years afterwaid In London what .
contrasting picture greeted Stuart Rob
son, then a famous actor. He was In
troduced by the celebrated English
"brother of the boards," O'Toole. In the
center of a large drawing room his
breast, covered with decorations present
ed to him by the crowned heads of Eur
ope, stood tho same good-nntured old
man, Uonlred by every one. Robson said
he felt a bit timid as he approached tho
great Inventor, wondering If he would
use his cane as ho did In years gone by.
Tho famous Inventor came forward and
grasped his hnnd, and recalled the early
days of struggle In both tholr lives, oh
llvloim of everything and everybody pres
