l-u York. Feb. 23. —To serve a dinner
■ 3Ce appet.zing and substantial without
■ use of either fleeh or fowl it a difficult
Kjertak.ng. In many families, especially
when the various fish in the mer
it is limited, the problem is too apt to be
Bred by a bountiful provision of codfish
leaks, or some other form of fried fish and
■goodly number of vegetables; a combine -
■on neither elegant nor appetizing. In this
t tH , r I wish to suggest some ways of serv
ing the common fish of the season, found In
L]most all markets, which shall be at once
Igfcnple and dainty.
[ i\ here fish in some form must be the
meet dt resistance of a dinner it is well to
add a course or two and make the meal
ujore elaborate, if less substantial than
cjual. Always have a soup and if possible
a salad, ani remember that not all vege
tables are not admissible with fish —spinach,
tomatoes and peas are ail good, as are oyster
plant, cauliflower and stewed celery, and
when' a salad is not served as a separate
course, lettuce, celery and o*ld slaw may
appropriately accompany fish—but rigor
olisly aschevr beans, beets, sweet pita tote,
cabbage and turnips. On the ether hand be
liberal in your provision of olives, pickles,
horseradish ana omdiments generally.
Of vegetable soaps half a dozen suggest
themselves. They are easily made and nu
tritious and a failure is almost impossible.
ith most of them a liberal use of butter
and milk is the secret of success.
Tomato Soup—Tt' a quart of tomatoes
add a quart of hot water, a heaping iea
spoo.ifulof salt, a diced onion and three
cloves. Stew gontlj in an earthen pot at
least two hours. Rub through a soup
strainer, add more salt if needed and a lit
tle pepper. Return the strained liquid to
the fire with two tabisspoonfuie of rice and
cook slowly two heurs longer. Twenty
minutes before serving add a lablespoonfui
of butter and a tabU poouful ef chopped
parsley. Serve wilt squares of toasted
bread. For a mock bisque soud stew the
t imatoes without auy water. After strain
ing add the butter and a quarter of a tea
spoonful of soda. Bal up and thioken with
a tnblespoonful of iour or corn starch.
Just before serving sdd a pint and a half of
boiling milk. Mix veil and pour into the
tureen.
Celery Soup—Boi’ a few stalks of celery
in a pint of salted eater. When soft, rub
through a seive, Jetting the water run
tbro gh also. Aid a quart of milk and a
half a teaspoonful (f onion juice and season
with pepper and sat, and bring the soup to
the boiling point Thicken with a table
spoonful of flour tubbed smooth with a ta
biespoonful of butter.
Green Pea Soap—Pour off the liquor
from a can of green peas of the inferior
grajle, usually soil for 10 cents a can. Cook
them in a quart of salted boiling water
uatil they qre reduced to a pulp. Run them,
liquor and all, thtougn a sieve. Add enough
boiling water tc make two quarts of the
soup, a tai lespooutul of butter and one of
chopped parsley, popper and salt to taste;
cook arfew minutes longer aufl serve.
A C(jap Oyster Soup—When you cook
fried oysters savs the liquor when you drain
them. Scald it and set it away until the
nojt dav. Wben you are ready to use it
brim to the boiling point, add an
equal quantity of milk, butter, pepper and
salt, boil up and thicken slightly with flour.
It it not of course, so good as soup made of
oysters and liquor both, but it doe* very
wall tor a prelude to something more sub
stantial.
Fish Soup—Boil a pound of fresh cod or
haddock in a quart of salted boil
ing water, with a small onion, until it is all
to pieces Rub it through a sieve, add a
quart of milk, a tablespoonful of butter,
pepper and salt to taste, and a little finely
cut parsley. Return it to the fire, boil it
up again and serve. Skim milk will
answer very well for all vegetable or fish
Klips.
Fou our piece de resistance we must, of
course, have fish, and it is one of the lions
it the way that the fish markets in Lent
cite- so little variety. Shad eometimes
makes its appearance in February, but is
generally small in size ana inferior in qual
ity. Mackerel, blue fish and salmon are
entirely out of season. With the exception
of cod, halibut and haddook, almost ail the
fish in the market is pan flah. For our
dinners, therefore, we must depend on the
excellence of our sauces rather than on the
merits of our fish.
Boiled Fish—Select a square piece of cod
or halibut from the center of the fish.
Wrap it in a piece of cheese cloth and cook
it in salted boiling water with a tablespoon
ful of vinegar, allowing ten minutes for
each pound of fish. When it is done re
in ve the skin and serve it with any of the
following sauces formed around it:
Egg Bauce—Btir two tablepoonsfuls each
of hatter and flour over the fire until per
fectly smooth. Add a pint of boiling water
end continue stirring until the sauce is
thick and smooth. Seas n with a scant
teorpoonful of salt, a very little white pep
per and add a couple of hard boiled eggs
hut into small pieces.
Parsley Sauce—Make a drawn butter by
the rule first given and add the juice of a
lemon and a tablesuoonful of chopped
parsley. *

Add the juice of a lemon. Remove the
•tones from a dozen olives and simmer

If you have a set of Jatranseo china fishes
or oae of white china baking *helU a num
ber of entrees are easily piepaied and
•erred. Almost any kind of cold cooked
fish n.ay be minced, mixed with an equal
quantity of bread crumbs, moistened wito
cream or milk, and highly seasoned. Fill
the shell* with the mix'ure, sprinkle the
tope thickly with fine cracker orumbe and
bake until brown. Salmon done in this is
fMrticulary good and pretty. Pass 'sliced
emon with it. Scalloped oysters, denied
clams |and deviled tobsters may all be
served in this way, and made available as
entrees.
Fi.h Croquettes—Have a pint of cold
boiled fish picked fine. Bring half a pint
of milk to a boil, thicken it with two
tablespooufuls of flour rubbed smooth with
a tablespoonful of butter and etir till it is
perfectly smooth. Remove from the fire,
add the fish, and season with a teassoouful
of chopped parsley and pepper and salt to
taste. When the mixture is cold and firm,
mold it |into bails or cylinders, dip in egg
or cracker crumbs, and fry. Serve with
peas This quantity will make twelve large
or eighteen small croqueites.
Oyster Croquettes—Bring a solid pint of
oysters to a boil in their own liquid. Re
move them from the fire, and cut each
oyster into three pieces. Proceed as in toe
foregoii.g rule, using half oyster liquor and
half milk instead of plain milk, and flavor
ing with a few drops of onion juice and
pepper and salt.
itacarom Croquettes—Boil a third of a
package of macaroni in salted boiling water
twenty minutes and cut it int j quarter-in h
lengths. M elt In a small saucepan a table
sooonful of butter, add a tnblespoonful of
flour and cook a minute and add a cup and
a half of milk, two tablespoo fuls of grated
ohAeee, salt and pepper. Cook two minutes,
stirring constantly. Remove from the fire
and add tflo beaten yolk of an egg. Cook
a minute, but do not let it boil. Stir in the
macaroni aud spread the mixture in a but
tered pan. When it is cold shape into cro
quettes wth a kails and a spoon, dip in
cracker crumbs, in beaten egg and in
cracker crumbs again aud fry.
Louster Cutlets—Chop the meat of a lob
ster line and stir it into the dressing given
for fish croquettes. Shape when cold into
cutlets, dip in bread and egg crumbs and
fry. Before serving stick a i law in each
cutlet. Pour a cream sauce over them.
Volauvont of Salmon—Make a sheet of
rich puff paste, and cut from it a number
of oircles four inches in diameter and the
same number of heart-shaped pieces an inch
and a half in diameter. Surround such
oiTclo with a lift of pastry and bake circles
aud hearta in a hot oven. Pick the conteuts
of a can of salmon to pieces, rejecting skin
and bone and draining off the oil. Mix with
it two tablespoon fuls of cream, a few drops
onion juice and a teaspoonful of chopped
parsley. Salt It to taste and cook five min
utes. Fill the pastry shells with the mixt
ure and lay a heart on each one. Set in the
oven till thoroughly heated, about twenty
minutes. Oyster* heated in cream sauce
may be substituted for the salmon
For a salad at dinner lettuce with a sim
ple French dressing of two tablespoonfuls of
oil to ene of vinegar is better than anything
else, and in city markets is always attain
able. Celery, cabbage and canned aspar
agus tips are all good foundatious for a
salad. They are best with a mayonnaise
dressing. Wafer cress may have a French
dressing, but it is often eaten with salt
alone. Home brands of tomatoes are so
solidly packed that if carefully opened they
may be taken out whole. Lay each In a
bed of crisp lettuce loaves aud put a large
spoonful of mayonnaise in the hollow place
at the top. Potato salad is too indigestible
to be eaten at Night, and should be relegated
to the lunch table. Thin bread and butter
is a good accompaniment of the salad
course, and cheese is often passed with it.
Cheess wafers a> e very good with a salad
eapeoislly with lettuce. Whatever the salad
be it never should be forgotten that lt
should be a vegetable one. Any other is a
solecism at dinner.
Jardiniere Salad—Cut cold boiled string
beans, carrots aud beets into small pieces.
Add tome peas and arrange them in a
mound upon a bed of lettuce, mniste ing
them slightly witn vinegar. Just before
serving, cover them with a half pint of
mayonnaise dressing.
Cheese Wafers—Rub a tabiospoonful of
butter to a cream and stir in two table
spoonfuls of grated English cheese. Bp. ead
to is mixture on thin water crackers, New
port wafers or zephyrettes; or if you can
not get thin crackers, split the thicker ones.
Keep them in a hot over, till they are a deli
cate brown.
What our English friends call sweats are
the strong point-of an American cuisine.
The doctors would undoubtedly say that
the very best way in which some of us
could keep Lent would be t > abjure desserts
altogether. But as such self-denial would
probably be beyond the zeal of most of us,
I shall close this article with a few receipts
for puddi gs, pleading in their behalf that
they are at least more harmless than the
traditional pie.
Caramel Custard—A quart cf milk, a
scant teapooufuls of salt, five eggs, five des
sert-spoonsful of sugar and a teaspoonful of
vanilla Bake in a moderate oven, in a but
tered dish, set in a pail of boiii.g water,
until trying it with a spoon you find it firm
in the comer. When quite cold run a knife
around tbo edge and turn the custard out
into a shallow dish. Pour the sauce around
it. Fo the sauce stir a cupful of sugar
over the fire until it is brown but not burnt.
Add a cup of boiling water a id oook slowly
flftee i minutes. Cool it before using.
Cabinet Pudding—Fill a buttere l mold
win alternate layers of bread crumbs and
raisins aud citrons. Pour over this a
custard of a pint of milk, two eggs, three
tnblespoonful of sugar and a little salt.
Flavor with vanilla. Let the pudding
stand an hour and only steam it three
quarters of an hour. Eat it hot with hard
sauce.
Jonquil Blanc Mange—Boil a quart of
milk with a teaspoonful of salt and four
tablespoonfuls of Soak half a box
of gelatine an hour in a teacup f milk, aud
when the milk boils stir it in. When it is
dissolved add the yolks of four eggs. Flavor
wth vanilla, pour into a mold wet with
cold water, and set it away to harden. Servo
with whipped cream heaped ar und it.
Coffee Jelly—Soak half a box of gelatine
half an hour in a cup of cold water. Have
a quart of clear strong ooffee boiling hot,
a Id the soaked gelatine and a cup of sugar,
stir until the gelatine is dissolved and strain
through a flannel bag into ,a mold. Serve
with cream aud sugar. Ellsn Conway.

Plant* Sold.
Amiricus, Ga., Feb. 23.— The Americus
gas and electric plants were sold by the re

Baltimore bondholders. The price paid is
$l,lOO, subject to $60,000 first mortgage
bonds. It is expected and hoped by
Americus people that the plants will be put
In condition to give good service. The
trouble with the present plant is that it

IT COE i TO MACON.
The Central City Selected for the State
Encampment.
Atlanta, Ga., 'Feb. 28. Macon will
probeb.y get the state encamp
ment. It .it left with her to
take it on certain condition*. Whet
theee are it is impossible to learn, as mem
bers of the advisory board, for soma reason,
steadfastly refuse to divulge them. The de
cision reached was not arrived at until
near l o’clock, but it was generally be
lieved early in the evening that the Central
city’e chance* were formidably good.
Delegations from neiriy all the places
which had offered bids were on hand,
exhausting every effort to gain informa
tion. The suspense was painful. The
board met lu the Kimball House, aud the
arcade presented an appearance such as it
has not worn since the Gordon-Calhoun
campaign.
Macon’s delegation was perhaps most
watchful, as it was the largest delegation on
the ground. The board was frequently in
terrupted in its deliberations by callers
outside, who largely exhausted every effort
to gain information. Nobody, however,
got further than the door. Money was
freely offe-ed on Macon’s chances in the
hotel office, and the excitement was too
great for any one to think of going to bed.
When the decision of the board was finally
announced tbec.owd heaved a sigh of relief
and dispersed.
A committee from the board will visit
Maoon, but when they are to be expected
and the conditions agreed upon communi
cated cannot be learned. *

A WOND. RFUL RAT TALY.
The Victim cf a Doctor's Experiment
Has its Revenge
From the Sutler (Pa.) Citi2en. *
Dr. T. J. Ritchie, a physician of Roarer
Falls, Pa, bas had an ex penance with a
rat during the put week wbirh he will not
forget for some time Recently he has
been experimenting on rate, doge and cate
and other email animals for the purpose of
studying digestion. Us would place the
animals under the influence of chloroform,
ahd the t, after cutting them open and
noting the working of the digestive organ*,
would sew up the wound, a mint it with a
healing salve and then let the snimal go.
On Saturday last he captured a large rat
and placed it under the infineuoe of the
drug, when, to bis surprise, he discovered
that the animal was one be had previously
operated upon.
He examined it for f second and then,
just as be turned to bis ca-o tc get tbs
nocessary instruments to make further in
vestigations, the rat revived, jump'd from
the table, sprang into the open fireplace and
escaped up the chimney. The doctor,
thinking that the rat would pop out of the
top of the chimney, ran out on the street to
see it, but no rat appeared.
That night as he lay asleep he was
awakened by a sharp pain in his finger,
and, opening his eyes, b saw a rat, which
proved to be the one which had escaped
from bin the previous eveni g, scamper off
the bed and up tho chimney again. He ex
amined his finger and found it badly bitten.
He washed and houud up the wound and
went to sleep, orly to be again awakened
by the same rat biting iiia nose. Ho chased
it away, but he got little sleep that night,
for the rat kent returning, and when he
attempted to kill it the wily little creature
always successfully took refuge in the
chimney.
The next night and for several nights
afterward, until last night, the rat dis
turbed his rest by its persistent and blood
thirsty attacks. I)r. Richie coul in’t help
but be cui iously interested in the little fel
low’s welfare, even though his experience
was rather unpleasant. ,
Finally ue stopped up the chimney, but
the rat managed to get out He then left
the door of his room open, thinking the rat
would seize the chance to leave the prem
ises. Ha also set a trap for it, but he didn’t
catch it until lad evening.
When the rat taw the dootor it showed
every sign of terror, and when he put th*
trap on the table aud brought out his bottle
of chloroform and sponge it gave a despair
ing squeak, tore savagely at is abdomsu
with its sharp teeth until the wound, only
imperfectly healed from the previous opera
tion, buret open, its bowels pushed out and
the poor little animal rolled over, kicked
convulsively and died. It had committed
suicide rather thau submit to auotber
operation.
JOHN L. NOT WHIPPED.
According to Authentic Report They
Didn’t Fight at All.
From the Athens (G>a.) Ledger.
The alleged Sullivan-Townsend fight on
the Georgia road caused considerable talk
here.
Our people became wild almost over the
fact that a Georgian had knocked out Sulli
van on the first round.
In regard to this report we interviewed a
popular conductor on the Georgia road;and
from him we get to the bottom of the affair.
“Where does the trala stop for dinner F’
inquired the celebrated pugilist.
“You get dinner at Camak if you go tho
Macon route, or at Union Point if you go
by Atlanta,’’ replied Mr Townsend, who
was a train bana, and who announced the
various depotsations.
Sullivan was drunk, and hardly knew
what he was saying or dolug.
“Say, young man, did you ever
using some very indeoent and insulting
language.
Mr. Townsend became offeudsd, as any
gentleman would have don-, and .made a
very sharp rsiily, which made Sullivan very
angry.
Mr. Townsend set himself for any ap
proach of the great pugilist, but tho man
aid not make any approacu. He used s mo
wrathy language, but did not show any de
sire to knock the young man out.
During the heat of the quarrel someone
advised Townsend to get out of the cm riage,
"for Sullivan would kill him,” but
be didn’t get out, and said that Sulli
van "was at liberty to make the effort,
but be would not kill him;” and as i
characterietio of Georgia pluck, the young
man held his ground and threw tha insults
on the part of the Boston man in bis teeth.
Mr. Townsend would weign about 125
pounds, and was wise enough to known the
folly of trying such a man as Sullivan by
mam strentb, and, while he had no fear
about him, be awaited the approach of his
opponent, which had it heen made, would
have been greeted with a very warm re
ception and perhaps would have resulted in
the death of th* big hog from Boston.
EMPERORCHARLES IlT”
