WACO DAILY NEWS, JANUARY 5 1892 ? k?J:U trull Ciller lit lnl til lull lliiliiire. For fruit cake enough toj'do the family anv reasonable family for Christina and Now Year's D.iy, these things aro iiecpssary: Tvi pounds currants, three pounds raisins, ono pi und citron, ouc pound candied orange and lemon peel, one pound fijjs. one pjund almonds, two pounds flour, one pound batter, two pounds rf tho darkest brown sujjar you can p. t, eighteen eegs, one ounoo ground cloven, ono ounce ground cinnamon, ono out co allspice, two nutmegs grated, one fourth pint of brandy. Prepare tho fruit tho day before. This sinula command is apt to "stump'' tho experimenter so this is how it's done Firs of r.ll tumble tho currants into a pauful of tepid water, ptir them around a bit and lift out with tho hands, letting- the water dnin off them as you do. Repeat this two or three times, 'then spread them or. a clean tea towel, as coarse a ono as youhavo, roll them up in it and rub them well to dry thorn auu to act the little stems oil. The stems will slick to tho towol and tho uso of two or threo towels in this way will mako iIm currants perlectly clean Spread them on a platter und set aside until too morrow. Stone tbe raisins. This is mado easy by letting thorn staud in uearly boiling water for a minuto. A small bharp knife, a touch of butter on tho fingers or else n howl of warm water to dip them in. and tho seeds are easily removed. Toar them in hdf as you seed them. Shred the citron quite fine and cut up the fit's in small bits. Obop the orange and lemon peel very small. Blanch the almonds and out them in quarters. They arc blanched by pouring bo'dinc water over them, let ting them stand in it a few minutes, and then popping them out of their skins, lho raisin'1, orange peel, citron and almonJs should be pressed down in a dish and tho brandy poured ovor them then closely cover with a plate. Tho next day, when the mixing and the baking are to bo done, set the flour on the oven to brown, and as it brownB remove that dark enough and set the rest back until all is u light brown. Thoroughly rub together the but ter and sugar, with a wooden spoon until creamy. Separate the volks and whites of the eggs, beat tho yolks until light and add to tho sugar and butter. Then add half the flour, next the spices, stir ring well aftor each addition. Sift tho otlur half of the flour over tho fruit and add that, putting- the figs and almonds in first so that thoy will be well distributed, then tho citron, chopped peel, raisins and currants alternately, a handful of each at a time, and Stirling industriously be tween handfuls. Beat the whites of the eggs to a light not a stiff both and add last. A good idea is to save out two or three spoonfuls of tbo batter before tho fruit goes in, to spread over tho oakes after thoy aro in tbo ptns, in order to cover tho fruit and prevent it burning. Heavy pans that turn out a cako with u nolo hi tho middle, or earthen waking dishes aro good to bake them Tho oven must bo just hot enough t0 turn a piece of mauilla paper palo brown in a minute. It requires threo hours to bako a. Irutt cake thorough' ly and the oven must be o "6low" one of oven tempora- ture. Aftor three hours opeu the doors and leavo tho cakes in tho oven for half or throe quarters of an hour longer to coo':. Now for tha crowning touob. About a week or five days before you aro going to out tho ctkes, got a quart bottlo of ohampagoo domestic does very well. I'unoturo the cakos with .1 knitting needle or larding needle through and throngh in every direo tion anJ pour the wino over them, turning them in it until they drink up ovcry drop. Set them away again un til tno day before cutting, when they cm be iced if doaired. f. K. I Co 514, and 515, Austin htrcot, Waco, Texas. TA .. - jiftetoiam NmLZfi Goodies for Clirite.

The Hous ton train was run out of San Antonio yesterday and mado tho trip with no hindrance save univorsal guying and rofusnal of restaurants to sell tho train orow anything to eat. There was a company of Texas Rangors aboard and at Yoakum a desporato effort was made to get lunch for tho orow and passen gers, but was unsuccessful. The restaurants refused to sell meals at any price to any of tho train crew or any of tho rangers. The grooers were appealed to for oheeso and craokcrs but refused to sell a singlo 5 cents worth. Tho Rangers and tho train mon proceeded on their journey in a very ravenous condition. Reward Withdrawn. Sheriff Ford this morning handed tho following to a News reporter.
