Guns and Ammunition.
Locomotives Scoop Up Water
Going 70 Miles an Hour.
Cincinnati, Jan. 29. Three arsenals
on wheels passed through the union
station during the night en route to
Cleveland.
They were armoured express cars
built especially for the American Ex
press company and will be used in
handling business between New Tork
and St. Louis. Owing to the increasing
number of express robberies it has been
deemed expedient by this company to
secure better protection for the mer
chandise and money which is entrusted
to their care, consequently orders were
placed for six arsenal cars. Three have
been completed and delivered. They
were built to 'withstand any attack
that might be made on them. A bullet
proof room is located in the center of
the arsenals. These rooms are built of
steel one and a half inches in thick
ness. The steel doors leading to either
end of the car each have a small peep
hole through which a gun can be rang
ed and fired.
On either side Is a steel projection or
turret a foot wide and extending from
the level of the window sill to the roof.
At each end and at the side of this tur
ret a port hole is provided so that a
rifle can be used to sweep the side of
the train from front to rear or to shoot
In any direction.
Thorough aperatures in this bomb
proof room where seats are provided
for two men the top of the train is
brought into range. The side windows
provide a clear view of what is goirjEr
on across the right of way. On racks
built in the bomb proof room are six
riot guns, each holding six cartridges,
each of which is filled with 12 heavy
buckshot. In a case in the armored
room is a small caisson in which is
carefully placed ammunition sufficient
lor a small army.
NEW WATER SCOOP.
Engines Take Water While Going 70
Miles an Hour.
The Pennsylvania has recently adopt
ed a new design of water scoop, by
which it is possible to take on water
while trains are running at a rate of
60 or 70 miles an hour.
Since 1S94 all new passenger locomo
tives and fast freight engines have been
designed to include water scoops but
with the old form of scoop it was neces
sary to slow down while taking on wa
ter, while with the new design no time
is thus lost and more water is taken
per 100 feet of trough. At 70 miles an
hour it is now possible to fill a 300 gal
lon tender in nine seconds.

Ottawa Man Sells Himself For
Thirteen Hollars.
Wichita, Jan. 29. Word was received
in this city through the express messen
gers and train men of the recent escape
and subsequent rearrest of Isaacs, the
accomplice of Harbolt, who held up a
Santa Fe train at Cimarron, which oc
curred about a year ago. Harbolt was
sentenced to the penitentiary some time
ago for the term of 99 years, and Isaacs
still remained in jail at Cimarron.
About a' week ago he managed to
make his escape from jail.
He immediately left for the sand hills,
where he remained in hiding for several
days.
The recent cold spell found Isaacs
entirely unprepared for it. He built
fires and endeavored to keep warm in
every manner possible. He stood the
torture for a day or two, but finally the
intensity of the cold and his hunger
compelled him to return to town. He
slipped in after dark and applied at a
livery stable for shelter. The barn
belonged to a brother of Harbolt, and
Isaacs was taken in and given some
thing to eat, and shelter. He was suf
fering greatly from the cold, and hi3
hands, feet and face were frozen quite
badly. He was made as comfortable
for the night as possible, and when
morning came he was turned over to
the sheriff.

THE FOURTH LECTURE.
Miss Colling Talks on Salads How
0 They are Made.
The fourth lecture of the Pure Food
cooking school was given yesterday
afternoon on the subject of salads. Miss
Colling thinks that a salad should be
served every day of the year. The va
riety and kinds are so great that no dif
ficulty should confront a housekeeper
on that score. She thinks vegetable
salads preferable for dinner, a3 they are
cooling and tend to purify the blood.
The salads containing oil are very
healthful and are really needed to keep
one in health, as oil is one of the best
of our foods.
The cooked and mayonaise dressing
may be made and bottled, when they
will keep two weeks, and she urges that
every housekeeper keep a supply in
stock.
The first recipe was for the cooked
dressing, and as she read the direc
tions she made the dressing, as fol
lows:
One-third cup of butter, two level
tablespoonfuls of flour, one-half pint of
milk, three eggs, one level tablespoon
ful of salt, two level tablespoonfuls of
sugar, two level teaspoonfuls of mus
tard, a speck of cayenne, one-half cup
of vinegar. Put the milk into a doubla
boiler, rub the butter and flour to
gether and stir them into the milk
when it has reached boiling point, stir
until it thickens, let it stand a moment
while you mix the other ingredients.
Beat the egss until frothy, add to them
the sugar, salt, mustard and cayenne,
stir well until mixed, then stir in the
vinegar, mix well and stir this mixture
into the cream sauce in the double
boiler. Continue stirring until smooth
and thick (about two minutes) and
take at once from the fire. When cold
this may be placed in a tightly corked
bottle and kept in a cold place two
weeks.
Miss Colling suggested .that during
the summer months a nice salad may
be made from the small amounts of
the vegetables left from dinner.
The mayonaise dressing was next
made, following this recipe:
Put the yolks of two eggs in a cold
soup plate. Beat or stir a moment with
a silver or wooden fork, then add half
a teaspoonful of salt, a speck of cay
enne, and, if you like it, half a teaspoon
ful of mustard. Work these well to
gether, then add a few drops at a time,
about one. pint of Olive oil stirring rap
idly and steadily all the time. Stir only
one way, as reversing the motion may
cause it to curdle. While adding the
oil, add also, occasionally, a few drops
of vinegar or lemon juice until it attains
the consistency you desire. The more
oil you use, the thicker the dressing. If
the dressing should curdle, begin again
with one or two more yolks, in another
plate, and after stirring well add one
teaspoonful at a time of the curdled
mayonaise, and when all has been
stirred in, continue adding oil as before
until the desired amount is obtained.
Everything used in making a mayonaise
dressing, the dish included, should be
ice cold, especially in warm weather.
"This dressing may be used on vege
table salads, and for potato salad it
should be thinned a little with either
cream or water put in just before using.,
Not too much care can be taken in se4
curing fresh oil, as otherwwise tne
dressing will be apt to cuudle.
"In preparing chicken for salad," said
Miss Colling, "boil it whole, and after
the first ten minutes of rapid cooking
put it on the back of the stove and al
low it to simmer until done. A small
amount of celery, a bay leaf, a small
onion, a sprig of parsley may be put in
and boiled with it, giving a nice flavor
to the chicken. When done, put it
where it will cool, then remove skin
and bones and cut the meat in strips. J
tnen .in uuues, uau u ihltti
than to chop; add salt, pepper and cel
ery to the dressing. There are psople
who do not care for oil, and in prepar
ing for a large company it i3 well to
make the mayonaise dressing rather
stiff, then add whipped cream to thin it.
The cream covers the taste of the oil
to some extent. Do not put the dress
ing on the salad until just before it is
served, as it toughens fhe celery.
When nuts are used they should be
blanched. In making salad of swe?t
breads, use peas, as they naturally be
long to sweetbreads in serving."
The question was asked if she ever
used oil in boiled dressing.and Miss Col
ling said she did not.
The salad should be served Just be
fore the dessert.

I it was first served at the Waldorf In

Mix in equal parts celery cut into

cut into slices, salt and pepper thin,
and mix with mayonaise dressing. Gar
nish with celery tops.
Nuts may be added to this salad in
the proportion of one-half cup of nuts
to two cups of celery and apple. Miss
Colling garnished this salad with small
slices of apples, cut in crescent shape
pieces, with the red rind and celery tops
making a tempting looking dish.
The walnut salad was next made,
after this recipe:
Make a nest of lettuce leaves on an
individual salad dish. Arrange on it
several pieces of orange. First cut into
slices and then into quarters. Add a few
halves of English walnuts. Place on
each a tiny speck of mayonaise dress
ing and serve. The walnuts may be
bleached or not, as preferred.
The following is the recipe for French
dressing:
One tablespoonful of vinegar, three
tablespoonfuls of olive oil, one-half
teaspoonful of salt, one-quarter tea

the oil, rub and mix until the salt is
