Bean the A Kind You Have Always Bought B * n r Kentucky “Burgoo.'’ The origin of Kentucky burgoo is at last discovered, r.nd the blue Grass State can no longer claim it as its own culinary inspiration. There is a Spanish diffi called olla po drida—"a little of everything”—which is an absolute neccs.-ity of life to every Span iard used to e\en coinp; ative luxury of diet. The method of preparing Kentucky burgoo has been frequently described. Any one who has read about it will in stantly recognize the existence of the same culinary theory in the preparation of olla podrida, which is described as follows by the cook who made it for Admiral Cer vera at Annapol.-. “A half quart of chick peas previously soaked in water for a few hours, a couple carrots, some chirlzos (Spanish red sausages), long pepper, a elove or two of garlic, an onion, a bunch of parsley, a dozen heads of lettuce, a eolewoft or two, tomatoes, a slice of gourd and any other old vegetable. These to be cut up and put ito stock pot with a half dozen pounds ‘ rso of brisket of beef, the knuckle end of a leg of mutton, half a pound of smoked streaky bacon, a few slices of ham i id lastly a fowl. These to be well cov e od with water and the liquid carefully skinuned, and, after it has boiled, allowed t< simmer for the* short space of six hours.”—Cincinnati Enquirer. I'lectioiiM lit Guatemala. Elect ions in Guatemala art* decided, it appears, by majorities so large as to ren der unnecessary any subsequent electoral contest. In order to dispose of contests more expeditiously there are* now in Wash i 'cton three committees on elections in the house of representatives. But one coiu ir .. tee probably would suffice in Guate u.ala, where, at the last election for presi dent of the republic, the vote cast was In t ie i roport’on of 700 for one candidate to 1 for the other. The term of the president of Guatemala is nominally six years, and he is not eligible for a second term, but when Guatemala gets a good president it is the custom to prolong his term, and a term thus prolonged is indefinite and ends Usually when the president dies General Denver. "Denver is so young,” says a corre spei dent of the Boston Transcript, ‘‘that General Denver, for whom it is named, is still living and visited the city a few years ago This Is a rare honor, Washington never saw the great city which he knew would bear his name. Lieutenant Du luth, the intrepid French officer of the lake region, had been in his grave 260 rears before the city that perpetuates his fame was founded. It has boon General Denver’s good fortune to live to see his namesake possess a population of 170,000 and rank high among the thriving towns qf the west.” A CLEVER TRICK.

CLOSMURES (Ccitinued from Ist page.) a-, blue, were first formed into an im i: se Confederate flag, while each child s.-n-. "Dixie.” Then by a series of effec t: . maneuvers the flag was transformed into "Old Glory,” whilq the children sang "The Star Spangled Baner,” closing with “Am rica.” . t the top of the stand, or flag, were st:: -J. g Master Robert Hazlehurst 'Plant, drc.,.i d as Uncle Sam, and little Mies Lau rinc Rogers, as Miss Columbia. One wav ed :ae Hawaiian flag and the other the flag of Cuba. .ver and above all proudly waved the fag of the state of eGorgia, which was pre sented to the Carnival Association with the corn, limen.ts of Governor Atkinson and was brought to Macon toy Mrs. Atkinson. Th. stars in the living flag were repre sented by forty-five children dressed in blue, each bearing a flag of one of the states, and ’Which was sent 'by the gov ernor of eadh state. Each child was al lowed to retain the flags as a souvenir of th? occasion. On the head of each of these forty-five children was a large and glitter ing star. Much praise should be accorded to Hon. W. T. Morgan, chairman of the Living Flag committee, and his associates, Hon. R. A. Nisbet ad Superintendent Abbott, for the success of the Affair. The have been untiring in their efforts. But especial attention is called by Messrs. Morgan and Nisbet and Abbott mselves to the fact that Miss Ruth Al len, principal of the Whittle school ren dered tbe committee the most valXble service and that without her aid but little could have beer accomplished. All of the lil hers gave great assistance and worked very hard. The wonderful thing about this flag was that it \»as given after only a few drills and was executed to perfection, showing how very hard the teachers, the commit tee and the children w’orked. When this same flag was given in Mil waukee some time ago the children were drilled for six weeks. It may be said that the Living Flag was easily the crowning feature of the Carni val. CARNIVAL BALL. 3eaut;fu! Closing Scene of the Carnival Las Night. No sovereign of royal blood ever re ceived mor sincere homage or more en thusiastic applause ’than that accorded the king and on n of the Carnival last night. At an eari;- hour their loyal subjects began to gath- r at the armory, which was mos; beautifully decorated with palms and ferns and Carn. .a’ colors. The seats down s alia and in balcony were quickly filled with the eager and expectant throng. Their royal highnesses, Miss Johnston and Mr. Huff. geared in the ball room at 10 o'clock all tended by their courtiers and maids e b.onor. Miss Job m wore a robe of s’ immer ing white . . trimmed with silver, the bodice was adorned with rhine stones and a crow v of diamonds seemed to fest very easily upon the royal head. The maids of honor were very I; ely in white illusion and pearls. With sta’tely tread the royal procession passed before toe admiring throng and the ' 'n; and queen took their seats upon the r..-one, forming with their attendants a Striking and beautiful tableau. After the first enthusiastic greetings the royal party opened the ball with a stately J met. Subsequently the german was danced by abou't one hundred and twenty five couples. A i interesting feature of the evening was the presentation of a silver loving cup to Miss Johnston and a signet ring to Mr. Huff from the Carnival Association. The m As pf honor were also the recipients of . f. y jeweled pins. 7 tie electrical display was much admired r- ' be ball continued until a late hour. ; r was conceded by all a fitting close to a week of brilliant events. Mrs. William McEwen Johnston compli m--”3 the queen and her maids this after re ■ i aft 5 ok >ek to a musical reception. RACES OVER, » (flerday Closed the Meet—Two Serious Accidents. • Th? races at the Central City park were bro; ht to a close yesterday afternoon after the ’ st race hid been run. Several se rin;- a cidents happened on the track in which two jockeys and a horse were badly hurt. The races started at 3 o’clock and the at tenJ.-.nce was very short on account of the Li-.ng Flag exercises, which were held at the same hour. The races did not come up to the expectations and the leaders are somewhaft out. All of the purses were paid, b’ we ver, and none ot the men who ■brouget horses here have lost any money. The accident in which one of the jockeys was seriously injured was the novelty run ning race was about to begin. Blood hound, the favorite horse, became somewhat un ruly and started around the track before che word was given, and it was Impossl ' ole for the jockey to hold him in. As the horse passed the judge’s stand the crowd attempred to stop him. but instead the an mal jumped the fence, throwing the jcckey I off. injuring him seriously. The second accident happened on the last quarter of the last race The favorite i horse in the race, Gertie’s Baby, was com- ■ ing down on the home stretch and when | in about a hundred yards of the wire she was seen to stumble and after going sev i era! yards further she fell, breaking her ! leg and throwing the jockey on his head. : The horse’s leg was broken near the shoul- ■ der and the negro’s arm was broken and he was also internally injured. The horse was sold for $5 just after the accident by his owner. The horses will go from here to Thom asville, where another race meet will be I held. They will not go, however, until next week and the horses will be in train ing on the track for the next few days. I Another race meet will be held here next MACON NEWS SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 15 r&c>6 year and it will probably be more succeaß ful than the past one. The first race was a seven-eights of a mile dash for a puree of SIOO. Hands Off ■ won the race easily, with Judge Baker second. Lord Henry third, Old Dominain fourth and Lady Maud fifth. The second race was a free-for-all pace ; for a purse of S4OO and was the event of the day. Alfondly won three successive heats in 2.15, the track record with the record of 2:15. j He is owned by Burney, of Boston and is campaigning in the Sou tn for the first I time. The third race was a running novelty. $25 for each winner at each quarter and a purse of SIOO for the race. Bloodhound won the first quarter by a nose over La’y Teacher, who imediately took the lead and I kept it all the way around, making t e time in :25, :50, 1:16, 1:46%. The fourth and last raze was won easily by Lady Maud. It was a half mile dash aid was run in the dark. The time was not announced. O -A. 13 T O Tl T .A. . Bears the Yc*l Have. A *3'. Bill ’ h ‘ LONDON’S HAIR TRADE. Jjuxt Binn, Maidens anil CoFltih Con tribute—Secrets and Prices. In the little house in Bioofr.sbury where sheaves of human hair are gam. i d work Is heavy. Now is the season when tbo British matron renews her scant licks; when the Adonis of GO buys himself another scrip, anti the fair nmid w' to thatch is light Eads it out with hair harvested from other ends. Before folk go on a holiday they pay a Visit to the hairdresser, ami the demand for fringes, bandeaux, invisible coverings, Sculpettos, top curls, fancy toupees and Bemlcovered hair stems waxes great. But the hairdresser does not always keep I these things in stexk. He goes to the i dealer in human hair, and thither a Daily Mail representative went —to the secorfd door round the corner down a street be neath the shadow of the grim facade of the highly respectable British museum. A comely Scot, in the prime of life, ptood behind the counter. ‘‘This lot,” he said, ‘‘is known in the trade as rag pick ers’ combings ” It was a large sheaf of hair, black, of coarse texture, about six inches in length. .‘‘These tresses,” lie went on, ‘‘are the combings of many heads. Paris ragpickers gather them. They are then cleansed, sorted in length and sold at a very cheap price. Theatrical wigs are their final destination. They curl beautifully,” How to keep the hair in curl is a knotty problem in some boudoirs. And yet it is easily done. Twist the hair tightly round a pipe. Then boil it; afterward bake it. It will never come uncurled. Italy and Franco are the fields which supply the English human hair markets. The coarser grades come from the former country, from Naples and Palermo and the finer ones from France. Girls in the sun ny land clothe themselves, as did Godiva of old, in their long locks—only they do it in a more conventional manner. When the hair is grown, they attend a fair. Here are merchants of Paris, ready to clip and pay cash down. And the girls sell their ■fair, buy garments, go home, rub in pomatum and start growing another crop. A healthy girl with a vigorous scalp will grow two or three marketable crops in the course of a year. Prices range from 10 francs to 40 francs per head of hair. Color purity is the de termining factor. The hair must be the same shade throughout from stem to tip. In Scandinavia and Germany the color Varies greatly. The last wave will be the yellow of wheat straw, while at its source it is almost ruddy. Such hair is of ho use for tho English market. It is sent to America. Human hair is of all lengths, but the longest grows on corpses. There is no felling which is cut from the living or from the dead. But from the coffin are gleaned beauty’s loveliest tresses. And the price of them is 13 shillings an ounce. Many ladies visit the little house in Bloomsbury. They shake out their locks and say: ‘‘lsn’t it beautiful? What will you give?” And they ask a fabulous price, as if their head carried 10 to 13 pounds of hair instead of 10 to 12 ounces. It is comforting to know that in the matter of hair England still holds her own. Thirty years in the trade show that we are not becoming more bald. The de mand for scalps is oven less than formerly. In Germany it is different. Teutons don’t lsoep their hair on in the way t' y v 'i ' o. If nations resemble Samson and strength lies in thrir ing ' i-ds, Li.a ain in her old age grows London Mail. A Famous Fencing Master. In Bertrand, the old fencing master, who at the age of 81 hajust laid down his foil forever, lovers of thel’.rme bla icl <■ have lost a teacher who in liis day w ■■ surpassed and who had the h- ; 1 founding not merely a f ho-al < but an epoch in the art he taught. For was the elder Bertrand who perfected (if he did not originate) that most deadly of all strokes, tho riposte, which is a light ninglike reply to tho adversary’s attack, delivered so swiftly after the parry that the opponent . .as not had time to recover from the effort nd protect himself. The Italian school has developed out of this a system of ‘‘offensive parries,” which combines the guard and the riposte in one movement, and is of very fatal;ac curacy with such a weapon as that of Pini. But it was Bertrand who really developed the full beauties of foil fencing, just when dueling had been definitely stopped. Such paradoxes are common in the history of the sword, for it was the invention of gunpowder and the consequent discard ing of heavy armor that introduced the supremacy of the rapier and tbe point. Tho superiority of Bertrand in his early days in Paris was testified in a manner that has distinguished classical preced ence. For every rnaitre d’armes interro gated on the subject by M. Legouve placed Bertrand second in the list of honor with out a single exception.—St. James Ga zette. Turtles In the Biihamas, The shallow seas around the Bahama islands abound with turtles, and turtle shell valued locally at £5, G00 was export ed last year from the colony. The edible turtle is known as the “green” one and is also plentiful in,these waters. When small ones are caught, they are deposited in large ponds known as “crawls,” where, after having been branded with their owner’s mark, they are left to feed upon a particu lar kind of marine grass until they have attained a marketable size. Turtle meat sells in the local markets at threepence per pound of live weight, and it is probable that an enterprise for the preparation of a concentrated form of turtle soup, such as tths recently been established in Jamaica, would prove a profitable undertaking.— ■ London Telegraph. Jack Rabbit and Bulldog. The Emporia (Kan.) Republican tells the following queer story: “An Emporia inan heard a disturbance in the nightfand on getting up to see what was the matter found bis bulldog engaged in a desperate struggle with a jack rabbit-. Concluding | that it was dangerous to interfere, he ! went back into the house and shut the ; door. In a short t ime the outside struggle ■ ceased, and, looking up, he was surprised to see a jack rabbit looking in over the transom of the front door. In the morn ing he went out and found the bulldog dead in tho front yard with marks of rab bit teeth all over his person, bearing mute testimony to his brave and desperate struggle.” CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.
