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.
