AUTHOR’S ODD EXPERIENCE. Riiiormci IIouuli, Wlto Wrote "T!ic MiM»lNNiii[>i Iltihlile*" Meet* De accaitlunt ol' Hero of IIIk Itook. Emerson Hough, who, by his strik ing characterization of John Law in “The Mississippi Bubble," lias made that picturesque gentleman alive lor all time, was surprised out of his usual calm by t he appearance at Ids office door of a dignified and impressive itnneer u-hn announced himself as John I.aw. As soon as Air. Hough real ized that the vision before him was corporeal and not the cheating fancy of his brain, lie set out the easy chair and bade the welcome guost tell him the story of his life. John H. Law lives in Chicago and is the resident manager of a big insur ance company. He had read “The Mississippi Bubble” and had called to pay his respects to the man who had given the world an honest picture of his great ancestor. Air. Hough learned that lie family on coming to this country settled first In Georgia, that one of its members was a brigadier general in the confederate army, and that alter the war the Laws moved to Cincinnati where one of the brothers still lives in a country place which he calls Lauris ton after the ancestral home in Scot land. The aulhor and the descendant rev eled in the family history for hours, and when they parted to meet at dinner the next night Hough said he felt as though he had shaken hands with the hero of his romance and had looked into the face of the man who for one historic moment had seen all Europe at his feet.

SOME SOliTHEIIA iHSEIS. V, l»y IlffrrtM to Mak<> Thom I -t Xorll: eru L'iilvs Have Met ni:ii l’uilciro. At irregular intervals the effort 1 made to establish in permanence the popularity of southern dishes in New York restaurants, but usually it ha* nut succeeded. French, Italian. Hun garian. German, Spanish, Polish, an. oven Russian, Syrian. Greek an Chinese dishes have, on the othci hand, had a certain vogue. There is a la rye and constantly in cteasing southern colony in New York. \ , rt ■ mal ing a sp< southern dishes have, in almost every case, been compelled to yield so. tie." >r later to the demand for cooking of an other style, despite the acknowledge., excellence of tried chicken, pone cake, corn muffins, Smithfkhl ham. pan fisi waffles and like delicacies. 'fite explanation of this apparent in ability of southern dishes to retain 2 foothold In New York restaurants is simple. The south is a region mostly ot small towns and villages, and tue opportunities of cooks in it are limited. There i3 corn in plenty, but veiy little flour. There are chickens, but little beef, mititon or veal. There are ham and bacon and game sometimes, but the standard articles of the American bill of lare. beefsteak, roast beef, lamb and mutton chops, are seldom seen. Frying, rather than broiling, is the rttie. and what can't be fried but must be broiled, stewed or roasted is not often seeu on table in the south. I nner the circumstances the souta ern cooks have done well, but when southerners come to New York, with its greater varieties offered in cooking, with its larger markets and different methods, they eschew the southern dishes and take to those which are more popular here. Corn cakes as a substitute for bread are popular in the south, where the supply of corn is almost unlimited, but southerners in New York incline rath er to bread than to corn combinations, and it is the same with other dishes. So long as people of French birth or French extraction are favorable t French cooking: so long as Italian favor Italian: Hungarians Hungarian. Spaniards Spanish; Poles Polish; Ger mans German; and Swedes Swedish cooking—inilk. soup, blood pudding, pickled herring and cauliflower salad tlie popularity of each of these styio of cooking is likely to continue in New York restaurants; but where, as in the case of southern dishes, people display no desire to uphold the cook ery of their home, it is not to be ex pected that it will pain or attain any great vogue here. It is under these circumstances that the work of popularising rout hern dishes is carried on in New York against many obstacles. The fact is that Chinese restaurants even are pre ferred. WOODBRIOOE.
