SOME WARM-WEATHER SALADS
• “One of the prettiest of the
luncheon or mtpjier salads is made
by cutting the top from a green
pepper, removing the seeds with a
knife or a stick—‘they burn the
skin if touched with the fingers—i
and filling the basket thus made i
with chicken or lobster salad,”;
says Christine Terhune Herrick
in the August Woman’s Home!
Companion. “Each pepper may!
may he placed on a lettuce leaf
and crowned with a spoonful of
mayonnaise. Another salad is pre
pared by hollowing a tomato and
tilling it with dice of cucumber
or peeling a cucumber cutting it
in half—lengthwise, scooping out
the inside and replacing this with
dice of tomatoes. Serve either
tomato or cucumber on a lettuce
leaf .and garnish with cucumber
ribbons. These are made by
shaving the peel from the outside
of a cumber and then slicing this.
Take a slice—it should be rath
er thick —and with n sharp knife
cut this in a spiral, us you would
pore an apple. The shaving must
lie very thin, as it is not long be
fore the seedy center is reached,
and only the flesh of the encum
ber will serve for the ribbons. Cu
cumber boats tilled with shrimps
are n satisfactory dish for a cold
supper. Mayonnaise is served
with a good boiled dressing.
The encumber* halved and filled
with other sliced or diced cucum
ber, served on lettuce, garnished
with cucumber ribbons and with
strips of the scarlet, sweet pepper
cut very tliiu, make a good dish.”
"NEGROES FLOCK TO BRYAN."
“Bryan After the Negro Vote”
has been the headline over dis
patches from Lincoln in Republi
can tuid Independent newspapers
for two or three weeks, but anx
ious representatives of Southern
opinion have been earnestly as
sured that there was nothing in it.
Now, however, even so loyal a
supporter of the distinguished
Nebraskan as the IMiihulelphin
Record heads its latest dispatch
from “Fairview” : “ Negroes
Flock to Bryan’s Standard: Can
didate Urges Them to Do Their
Rest to Win Ohio from Republi-
S «
cans.
This is certainly likely to give
the impression thut there
thing in it” after all, though it
does not necessarily prove that
the negroes have been induced to
“Hock -- by promises to which the
South would object. It - the ne
groes are ready to flock to Bryan’s
standard on their own initiative,
and without receiving insincere or
trouble-breeding promises, by all
means let them do so. The Dem
ocrats will undoubtedly do as
much for them as the Republicans,
although we hnjie they will lie
lamest enough to promise less.
If tin' coming eleetiefh shall
show a more or less equal division
of the negroes between the two
parties, a new and more promis
ing political era will have begun
lor that race—Macon Telegraph.
N 3 ACTIO* YET TAKEN
AS TO BROWN’S DISCHARGE.
No further action toward prob
ing the suspension of Joseph M.
Brow n, as railroad commissioner,
bv Governor lioke Smith, will be
taken by jhe judiciary committee.
By a vote of HR to 12] a resolution
to tliK effect by Mr. Dunbar, of
Richmond, was adopted late Mon
day afternoon. This puts an end
t-o for the present,any
way.
Wonder how many of these*
who are accused with killing con
victs will be brought to trial. The
guilty ones may get off light here,
.but lookout for the “dual" court.
