Kansas Oily, Mo., Sept 4. A railroad
Seal that may man the Atchison, To
peka. & Santa Fe's entry to St. Louis, L
said to be under consideration. Since
the promoters of the SL Louis, Kansas
City & Colorado railway, now building
west from St. l.ouis. announced that
Clinton, Mo., is to be the line's destina
tion, there have been rumors that the
company will buy or has already ar
ranged for rhe pureha.se of the old
Blair line from Kansas City to Clinton.
This road Is on of the two now owned
by the 'Frisco system that parallel each
other from Kansas City to Clinton.
They are so close together that one
company can hardly use Vo'.h. The St.
Louis, Kansas City & Colorado used ta
be a Santa Fe property out the con
struction of the present extension west
to Clinton is Pi tue hands of a conpany
in which John Scullin and David It.
Francis of St. Louis are the moving
spirits. Whether it is a Santa Fe prop
erty yet and will make a. Santa Fe
connection for St. Louis in time for tiie
World's fair is a matter about which
there is no end of speculation.

EOLD DEED REMEMBERED.
Famous "Andrews Kaid" Locomotive
to Be Put on Exhibition.
The famous engine "General," which
was used by Captain Jamea J. Andrews
and his party of raiders in an attempt
to burn the bridges on the Western &
Atlantic railroad, on April 12, 1S62, has
been sent by the Nashville, Chattanoo
ga & St. Iouisj raliway to be set up in
the union depot at Chattanooga aa a
permanent monument to the heroes of
that daring raid. The engine and sev
eral boxcars were stolen from a passen
ger train while the crew was eating
breakfast at Big Shanty. The raiders
were closely pursued by the conductor
and a party of Confederate soldiers on
a switching engine, and at a point be
tween Ringgold and Crraysville the en
gine was abandoned and the bridge
burning scheme had to be given up as a
failure. All of the party, numbering 2'i
or 23, were captured and eight were ex
ecuted as spies. The survivors have
erected a monument in memory of th
affair, in the national cemetery at Chat
tanooga. The X.. C. & St. L. Ry. has
erected a tablet marking the spot whera
the engine was captured, another where
it was abandoned and a third tablet has
been erected in front of the engine in
Chattanooga.
RUNAWAY LOCOMOTIVE.
Did $100,000 WortbTof Damage to a
Canning Factory.
Occasionally a good deal of damage is
done to private property by a derailed
locomotive. On August 24, a Chicago &
Northwestern locomotive and boxcar, in
the absence of the engineer and fireman
got loose on a grade in Janesville, Wis.,
jumped the track and went through one
end of a canning factory. The building
was of brick, just finished at a cost of
$130,000. The engine struck a large wa
ter tank and it fell lengthwise of the
building and crushed through. A large
number of tin cans were smashed, and
costly special machinery, engine and
boilers were badly damaged. The loss
i3 estimated at $100,000.
NEW JOB CHEATED.
Union and Southern Pacifies to Have
Superintendent of Mail Contracts.
Omaha. Sept. 4. The management of
the Union and SouthernPacific roadshas
created the office of superintendent of
mail contractors and it is understood
that Herbert Thra.il. now superintendent
of the eighth division of the railway
mail service, is to be appointed to the
position, retaining also his present posi
tion. The duties of the office will in
clude the designing, building and fitting
up of mail cars and superintending the
weighing of mails. An expert in mail
handling is required for the office who
has an intimate knowledge with the de
tails connected with the postal require
ments on the various lines of railroads,
as well as being able to conduct nego
tiations with the government, and Mr.
Thrall has been selected because of his
varied experience in the mail service.
RAILROAD CLIPPING&
An offer of SaOOniTO bonus has been made
by the Fourth Ward Improvement asso
ciation of Kansas City if the l'nion Depot
company will build a new union depot in
or near the Fourth ward. Railway Ga
zette. At Salt Lake the scalpers are endeavor
ing to scalp each other. One man is ac
cused of standing in with the railroad
and bulletins to the road all tickets not
bought by him but by rival scalpers. He
tets the numbers of tickers, it is claimed,
and if he cannot buy them at cheap
rates he bulletins them. If he does buy
them, the rf'ther scalpers declare, he is
protected. Kansas City Journal.
In two scalping offices in St. Louis
which were raided by the police a few
days asro. a large number of altered,
counterfeited and otherwise irregular
tickets were seized. Some of the tickets
had been washed, some were plugged,
destinations were changed, and one was
a counterfeit altogether. This is the kind
of business which legislatures are disin
clined to interfere with by passing laws
which would protect passengers and
carriers alike. Railway Age.
The Baltimore & Ohio on August 19
brought 4,'X'O excursionists to Chicago
from Chicago Junction. O.. five trains of
l'j coaches each being required. The ro nd
trip rate was J3.n0. the distance being
miles. This is the first of two excursions
that this company will run into Chicago
from points in Ohio and Indiana during
the summer. The excursions are operated
under an agreement among the roads
east of Chicago, each line agreeing to
run a certain number on specified dates,
so there will be no competition among
the lines. Railway Age.
In regard to the report at the end of
the present year the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe will abandon its trans-Pacific
steamship line from San Diego, Cal.. now
operated by the California & Oriental
Steamship company, and will establish ati
Orivntal service from the same port, with
connections for Central and South Amer
ica, it is announced that the contract
between the Santa Fe and the California

February 1 next. It may oa may not be
renewed, and all reports on the subject
are premature. Kansas City Journal.
There has been considerable doing along
the Hudson River railroad of late, in the
way of changing names of stations. The
most notable ciianee was the one from
Sing Sing to Ossining: and it is esti
mated that from 10 to 20 passengers are
carried by the station now every day.
The station so well known as Low Point
is still remembered by scores of pass
engers as Low Point. It was named
Carthage landing, but the public simply
would not have it, and now the company
lias changed again, and the place is called
Chelsea. The station on the West Shore
road so long known as Cranstons. is now
known as Highland Falls, and passengers
are frequently carried by it on that ac
count. ..." Some one has noted that
when the company changes the name of
a station it at once proceeds to make, im
provements in the place. If this be the
Invariable rule, what is the matter with
changing the name of the Poughkeepsie
station to anv name under the sun. pro
vided it wiil "result in a new station?

How to Use Lemon.
Nature has added no more valuable
subsidiary to our food list. In every
well ordered culinary department we
find that the importance of having a
lemon on hand is as great a considera
tion in the -iStination of the cook as
the presence of the historic horseshoe
nail. Without a lemon when a lemon
is needed, tiie cook considers that she
has wrought in vain.
Nearly everything in the sweet list
of dishes is .lavored with lemon occa
sionally, and not only in sweets is it
used, but added to many other dishes
that, but for its agreeable pungency
and flavor, would be rather tasteless
and insipid.
THE JUICE OP LEMON.
This is valued principally on account
of its useful unti-scorbutic properties,
and for this reason should be used in
some form almost every day in winter
as in summer, as the heavier meat diet
usually consumed in cold weather cre
ates the same need for blood-purifying
elements. A wise use of nature's rem
edies as food accessories will not only
add to the pleasure of eating, but fur
nish all the digests necessary, without
resorting to artificial help
The acid of lemon (citric) while too
strong to use uless diluted with some
other substance or neutralized with
oils, is the most digestible and whole
some of all acid?, and the most service
able, as it can be used for all practical
purposes when the introduction of an
acid is necessary to fond. Another
great virtue it possesses, which will re
commend it to all cautious housewives,
is that it is a natural and wholesome
acid which they may obtain from na
ture's laboratory without fear of adul
teration, although be it known that if
is cheaper to produce pure cider vine
gar than an imitation of the same; the
apple crop governs the supply, how
ever, and when the supply is less than
the demand, artificial methods may be
resorted to. The acid of lemon Juice
being very sharp, less is required to d:i
the work, and, being almost colorless,
it can be used in delicate sauces, jellies,
etc., without spoiling their appearance.
The several acids cf vegetable prod
uct all probably act in the process of
digestion and nutrition in much the
same way; exerting a solvent action up
on many of the food substances. Re
garding them in the light of nutrients,
they would be of little value, as they
cannot be taken in sufficient quantity
to perceptibly increase the vital powers.
But all foods are not taken with the
purpose of increasing force or power.
After using the best materials for build
ing the structure, there are many little
provisions to be considered for keeping
it in good repair. For this purpose we
have what many regard aa the nones
sentials among food materials. Too lit
tle attention is paid to these so-called
superfluous matters.whieh, after all, are
the very factors that make the bodily
structure a desirable possession.
ESSENTIAL, OIL OF LEMON.
This oil, that gives such a pungent
and agreeable flavor, occurs in the rind
of the fruit; the slightest scratch on
the surface will liberate it, and for this
reason and because tne white, pulpy
part lying directly underneath the thin,
yellow skin, is bitter and indigestible,
we should grate the outer part very
lightly and carefully. The best grade
of the oil .-of lemon is. of necessity, ex
pensive, and it must be caretuiiy ex
tracted. Housekeepers should remem
ber this when purchasing, and also bear
in mind the fact that the best goods
are the cheapest, as they will go much
further than a weaker and perhaps
adulterated quality. In all prepared
food products we must remember that
living prices, at least, must be divided
between the producer, the man who
prepares them for the market and the
seller, to say nothing of those who are
employed by these to do the actual la
bor. The justice of high prices is some
times questionable, but not when the
goods are of the highest and purest
duality.
KEEPING LEMONS.
It is a misfortune indeed to live beyond
the immediate reach of a lemon. But
generally a little forethought and man
agement will provide against the
"found wanting" in this case.
There are several methods used to
preserve the fresh lemon. That em
ployed by the growers is wrapping each
one separately in tisfsue paper and
keeping them in a cool, dry place. An
other way that is often, practical is to
cover them with buttermilk in a covered
vessel; changing the buttermilk every
fortnight at least. It is claimed that
they will keep fresh for six months or
longer. When wanted for use, .rub them
perfectly dry with a soft cloth.
LEMON SOUP.
This is a well-made chicken broth
thickened with eggs and cream or milk
to the consistency of thick cream, and
flavored with lemon juice just before
sering.
LEMON SAfCE FOR FISH.
Set a small saucepan over another
containing hot water; place in the
saucepan four ounces of butter, with
the juice of a large lemon. Beat rap
idly until thick and hot, add salt and
pepper to taste, and just before remov
ing from the fire beat in the yolks of
two eggs, and when thoroughly heated
remove at once from the fire, and serve.
LEMON JELLY.
Soak half a package of plain gelatine
That's why tea and coffee make so
many people nervous, dyspeptic and
rheumatic. The poison is known as CAF
FEIN. Tea contains 6 per cent, and
coffee 2 per cent, of this poison, of which
Thi erains will kill a cat.
If you have sick headache or Indiges
tion, stop tea and coffee at once. It's no
trouble at all when you drink CARAMEL
CEREAL, the Battle Creek Sanitarium
scientific substitute for coffee. Has a
fine aroma, a pleasant flavor. Made from
pure cereals. No molasses or cheap
sugar factory refuse which many so
called cereal beverages contain.
The genuine bears a picture of the
world famous Battle Creek Sanitarium,
Battle Creek, Mich. Ask your grocer
for it.

in half a ctij ot cold "water until all the
water Is absorbed and the g-elatlne ten
der; add the strained juice of three- large
lemons, a rinch of salt and a cud of
granulated sugar; pour over the whole
a pint of boiling water, and stir. until
the sugar is dissolved, and then strain
through a thin cloth into a wet grla.ss or
china mold. This can be served with
boiled custard or fresh fruit. The latter
can be molded with the jelly.
LEMON IN SALAD DRESSING.
This acid is much to be preferred in
making either the plain French dress
ing of oil and acid or the mayonnaise,
except when only the green salad leaves
are used, then tarragon vinegar gives
that peculiar and delicate soupcon
that makes it so pleasing. This vine
gar, as we have already stated, can be
made at home if one desires to econo
mize. Lemon juice Is more certain in
its results, in mixing with the oil, than
the vinegars, as the latter frequently
contains considerable water.
LEMON BUTTER SAUCE.
Put a large tablespoonful of corn
starch, two heaping tablespoonf ula of
granulated sugar, a pinch of salt, the
grated rind of a lemon and the juice,
an ounce of butter and the yolks of two
eggs in a saucepan and beat them to
gether until smooth and light; then add
quickly a pint of boiling water; and
cook until it begins to thicken.
LITTLE LEMON PUDDINGS.
Put a cup of fine, dry bread crumbs In
a bowl, cover with a "pint of milk and
soak until crumbs are soft. Beat to
gether until light the yolks of two egss,
two level tablespoonfuls of butter and a
half-cup of sugar; add the grated rind
and iuice of a small lemon, mix and
then add the soaked crumbs, turn this
mixture into small buttered cups; set
the cups in a shallow pan of water;
place in a moderately hot oven and
bake until the custards are set, no long
er, about 20 minutes. These may be
served hot or cold with fruit sauce.

MEXICAN TOMALES.
These are considerable trouble to
make, if you desire the real article;
but unless you do make them according
to Hoyle, they are rather disappointing.
We have published the directions for
both methods in previous issue, but will
repeat the recipe for the genuine Mexi
can tomale.
Take two pounds of corn and a hand
ful of lime and water enough to cover;
boil until the skin loosens from the
grain; then wash thoroughly in cold wa
ter to remove the lime. Grind the corn
very fine, use a food chopper for tha
purpose. Boil a large chicken, one that
will give' you three pounds of meat, in
as little water as possible; mix the corn
to a paste with the liquor the chicken
is boiled in; then work in a scant pound
of firm lard and salt to taste.
Remove the seeds from a pound of
red peppers, scald until soft and Bkin
them and then pound to a paste; add
two cloves of garlic chopped fine, a. lit-

POUND CAKE.
Use no baking: powder in this, as suc
cess lies in number of eggs and amount
of beating.
Beat a pound of sweet, fresh, butter
until It is like fine, thick cream, then
add gradually a pound of sifted pow
dered sugar and beat well. i'.at t-n
eggs' yolks, but half the whiles until
light colored and foamy and gradually
beat them into the butter and
sugar, beating one way and not stir
ring. Sift flour, then weigh a pound
and to this add a pinch of ground
mace. Beat flour into the mixture and
add a few tablespoonfuls of brandy or
flavor with roe water. Beat ti e whole
to a very smooth batter. Old faeh on
ed recipes say an hour is not too ln:r
if you wish a fine grain. Ijne a round
cake tin with buttered, white paid,
