Why We Undersell ‘All Lumber Yards. ‘There are many reasons, but the three principle ones are these: e: First. it is the custom of lumber deal- ers throrghout the country to pay the mills in thelr customer's notes, indorsed by themselves, and then to renew them. We pay CASH—our patronage is sought— and so we buy from 10 to 25 per cent lower than others. Secondly, we sell for cash which en- ables us to sell closer because we have bo lusses to make good. ; ‘Thirdly, we take the entire output of som-+ suuthera lumber inills by special arrangement at specially low “SPOT CASH” prices.

The First Ses: This Morning a the Closing Session Sunday Even- ing—Father Clarke to Be Here. The first session of the second annual con- vention of the Christian Endeavor Union of the District of Columbia was opened this morning at the Mount Vernon M. E. Church, corner of 9th and K streets. There was a fai> attendance at this preliminary session, and, as usual, in all meetings con- ducted by this young and active organiza- tion the proceedings were marked by a de- gree of interest that was sufficient to hold the attention of those present. A cordial welcome to those in attendance at the con- vention was manifested by the elaborate decoration of the church, the main feature of which was the draping of the fronts of the galleries with American flags. Flags were also suspended in front of the organ at the rear of the pulpit, and in the center of these emblems of national authority shone the golden monogram of the organi- zation. Across the front of the gallery in the rear of the church was the inscription which is now familiar to every Endeavorer in the District, as well as to their hosts of friends, viz., “Washington, in 1896." As every one knows, this means that the great international convention for that year is to be held in this city, if the Christian En- deavozers and their extensive constituency are consulted. Father (1 ke Here. The convention wili be in session this evening, and tomorrow sessions will be held in the morning, afternoon and evening. On Sunday evening at ¥ o'clock the closing con- secration service of the convention will be held. This service will be conducted by Rev. F. E. Clarke, who is known as the fathe-> of the Christian Endeavor Organiza- tion. Rev. Dr. Clarke will be present at tne meeting tomorrow evening, and will deliver an address. The interest in the convention will be greatly enhanced by the fact that Fathe> Clarke, as he is affectionately term- ed, will be able to attend several of the ses- sions. The session this morning was opened about half-past lv with devotional exer- cises, conducted by the president of the union, Mr. W. S. MacArthur. The singing was led by the organ, which was played by Miss Alice Kimball. A warm and cordial address of welcome was delivered by Kev. I. W. Canter, the pastor of the Mount Vernon Church, who assured the Endeavor- ers rot only of their welcome on this occa- sion, but also of the deep interest which he bad always taken in their work. The pres- idert of the C. E. Society of the Mount Vernon Church, Mr. F. E. Riddleberger, on behalf of the society, spoke a few words of cordial welcome. The response to these greetings was delivered by Rev. Chas. D. Ramedell, the pastor of the Northern Pre: byterian Church, who in the course of hi remarks spoke of the value of the work which was being done by this society. He attributed the success which the organiza- tion enjoyed to the fact that they were all united in their love for Christ. He said that a good deal had been written in re- gard to church unity. As he looked upon it this was a dr -m. The Roman Church had desired to attain such unity in point of ser- vice and in other details, but the realiza- tion of such a project, the speaker thought, was not possible. The Christian Endeavor Society had brought about the denomina- tional amity, so that the representatives of the different denominations had worked together for the common good, without ne- glecting their church interests. The address of the morning session was delivered by Mr. W. H. H. Smith, one of the former presidents of the union, whose theme was how to study the Bible. His address was practical and suggestive, as is generally the case when Mr. Smith under- takes to make a public address, At 12 o'clock the convention adjourned. Afternoon and Evening Sessions. The afternoon session was begun at 2 o'clock with a prayer and praise service con- ducted by Miss E.C. Drane. The program in- cluded addresses by Rev. W. C. Alexander, D. D., and Rev. G. B. Patch and reports from presidents of societies. The program for this evening is as fol- lows, song service beginning at 7 o'clock: Song service; anthem, by C. E.

As Mr. George W. Childs was preparing to leave the Ledger office for his home in Philadelphia yesterday afternoon he was attacked by vertigo. His condition alarmed the employes of the office, and his family physician, Dr. J. M. DaCosta, was sent for. Dr. DaCosta took Mr. Childs home in a carriage, and last night reported him as much improved, and that no seriou8 results were to be apprehended from the attack.

VAILLANPS DAUGHTER PLEADS FOR HI Prosecutors of the Omladini Threatened. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS. PARIS, Jan. 19.—An explosion occurred last night outside the residence of M. Du- czet, the editor of the Cocarde, at Neuilly- Sur-Seine, a western suburb of Paris. The explosion made a tremendous noise, but did very slight damage. It is believed that the bomb was loaded with chlorate powder. The police believe that the affair was the | work of anarchists. M. Ducret was recently released from prison, he having been sentenced to one year’s confinement for his connection with the forgery of documents that were said to have been stolen from the British embassy here. He was pardoned by President Car- not. Sidonie Vaillant, daughter of the anar- chist, Auguste Vaillant, who is now under sentence of death for throwing a bomb in the chamber of deputies, has written a let- ter to Madame Carnot, wife of the presi- dent, appealing to her to use her influence with her husband to secure a pardon for her father. ‘The Situation in Italy. Le Journal today publishes an interview that took ‘place between M. Deloncle, a member of the French chamber of deputies, and Signor Crispi, the Italian prime minis- ter. Signor Crispi eulogized M. Billot, French ambassador to Italy, who, he said, was working for an agreement between France and Italy. Signor Crispi further said he believed that the disturbances in Sicily were over and that the troubles there were practically at an end. The mobilizing of the Italian troops, he added, should cause no alarm. Italy was absolutely peaceful and was 4 sirous of terminating the economic struggle with France. It was necessary that the countries should be commercially united. The French Navy. La Lanterne today declares that the statements made by Admiral Lefevre, min- ister of marine, in the interview on the condition of the navy, published yesterday by the Echo de Paris, proves that the min- ister of marine is in complete ignorance of the hab‘tual occurrences in the naval ar- senals, He merely, the paper says, repeats the utterances of his chief of staff. La Justice declares that the appointment by the chamber of deputies of an extra parliamentary commission to inquire into naval matters is ridiculous. It adds that several of those named as members of the commission have not yet agreed to serve. | Before deciding to accept places on the commission they will take counsel of one another, and learn the extent of the powers that will be conferred on them. The returns issued by the board of trade covering the year 1893, show that the im- ports decreased 251,330,000 francs, as com- pared with those of the preceding year and that the exports decreased 251,116,000 francs as compared with those of 1892, NEWS IN THE FAR EAST. A Second Edition of the Siamese ‘Twins—Curfew in Korea. VANCOUVER, B. C., Jan. 19.—The Em- Press of Japan brings the following oriental advices: A second edition of the Siamese twins is now being exhibited at Hong Chow. They are nice looking boys about six years old, bound together by a ligament of flesh near the middle of their sides. They are as much alike In appearance and as near equal in size as it is possible to be. The North China Daily News makes the following important announcement. We understand that no more obstacles are to be put in the way of Chinese de- siring to establish cotton mills at treaty ports on condition that they pay a royalty of one tael per bale of yarn produced to a fund for the re-establishment of the Shang- hai cotton cloth mill until the fund amounts to 2,000,000 taels. This royalty is to be subject to a reduction if the yarn falls be- low a certain point. We may now expect to see the Shanghai rapidly becoming a center of cotton man- ufacture, rivaling Bombay. A violent shock of earthquake was felt at Yamagata on the 24th ultimo at 11:10 a.m. It lasted for five minutes. Much damage was done to houses, some having their walls shaken down. The frames of the dormitory of the Yamagata prefectural ordinary middle school, lately erected, were completely overthrown. The Japanese parliament has been for- mally dissolved by the emperor, and al- ready preparations are being made for com- ing elections. The government has come to the conclu- sion that the anti-foreign society, known as Dai Nippon Kyokai, or Great Japan So- ciety, is dangerous to the peace of the em- pire, and an order has been put in forec to dissolve the society. Latest advices from Korea state that the edict prohibiting the exportation of rice has been put into operation, all efforts to prevent it proving ineffectual. Protests and complaints have been made by many Japanese merchants, and it is thought that the edict will be revoked. Because of numerous cases of thieving and a spirit of lawlessness a law forbidding men to go on the streets after curfew or the closing of the city gates has been re- vived and enforced with vigor. The Koreans in the employ of the for- eigners are not exempted, but the foreign office has issued passes to foreign resi- dents, by which servants are enabled to go on errands for their masters after dark. Presecutors of the Omladina Threat- ened. PRAGUE, Jan. 19.—The president of the court before which the members of the Omladina Society, who are charged with high treason and lese majeste, are being triec has received letters threatening with death himself and the two procureurs who are conducting the prosecution If the pris- oners are convicted. Milan’s Partisans in Power. LONDON, Jan. 19.—A dispatch to the Central News from Vienna says that ad- vices received there from Belgrade show that M. Nicolaievitch has formed a cabinet. The new ministers are partisans of ex-King Milan ‘and among the number are several military officers. It is believed that the new ministry will propose an adjournment of the skuptschina and the suspending of the constitution. Dr. Herz’s Condition Worse. LONDON, Jan. 19.—Within the past few days the condition of Dr. Cornelius Herz, whose name has been so often mentioned in connection with the Panama scandal, and who came to England shortly after the first expose of the scandal was made, has be- come more serious. He remains in his room at the hotel at Bournemouth, where he was arrested exactly a year ago. Roman Newspaper Seized. ROME, Jan. 19.-The Moniteur de Rome, which, after being suspended for some time in consequence of publishing articles of- fensive to the government, was recently acquitted of all blame and allowed to re- sume publication, is again in trouble. To- day’s issue of the paper has been seques- tered for publishing three articles on the government program and on the situation in Sicily that did not meet with the appro- bation of the government. Monson Not to Figure in Wax. | LONDON, Jan. 19.—The application of Alfred John Monson for an order restraining Madame Tussaud & Sons, limited, from ex- hibiting a wax effigy of him in their wax- works show has been granted by the courts.

FOILED BY THE JAILER’S PLUCK. An Unsuccessful Attempt to Escape by Prisoners at Omaha. CHICAGO, Jan, 19.—A special to the Her- ald from Omaha says: “Jailer S. G. Ernest was passing along the corridor of the first floor of the county jail last evening, when he heard the noise of a scuffle on the, sec- ond floor. On running up he found two desperate characters, named Defrance 2nd Christiansen, fighting. Witnout a mo- ment’s hesitation he sprang into the cell to separate the men. Seizing Defrance, the jailer pulled him into the corridor, but was followed by Christiansen and attacked by both men. “A desperate struggle commenced, when suddenly Christiansen sprang back and pulled the lever that unlocked every cell on the fioor. Nineteen criminals burst forth and drove the jailer into a cell. Here they beat and stamped on him, but, with heroic attempts, he tore through the mob and rushed down the corridor to the office. “The prisoners followed him in a wild dash for lberty, but just as the mob, headed by Defrance, reached the threshold Ernest had grasped a revolver and a billy and flashed the gun in the leader's face. “The mob suged up to the docrway in a frantic attempt to kill the jailer, but his nerve and gun cowed the toughs, and they slowly and sullenly went back to their cells, driven by Eraest. “It was the most desperate attempt at escape ever made in the jail, and the most heroic action on the part of Ernest ever performed by any man in the jailer’s office. The prisoners making the attempt were all men sentenced to the penitentiary or await- ing trial in default of large bail. Defrance, the leader, is sentenced for life for inter- fering with the United States mail service, and Christiansen has a long term for bur- glary. Ernest is severely bruised and has internal injuries, the result of being trampled upon, which may prove fatal.” ge BANISHED FROM THE STATE, Sentence in the Case of Miltem Worth- ly of Portland, Me. PORTLAND, Me., Jan. 19.—Milton J. Worthly, charged with assault and bat- tery and kidnaping, was yesterday sen- tenced to banishment from the state by Judge Bonney. If he ever returns and is captured he will be sent to prison for ten years, One night about three months ago Miss Louise Dana, the handsome young daugh- ter of Woodbury K. Dana of Westbrook, the owner of the Dana mills, was return- ing home from her father’s office after dark. While passing an unoccupied shoe factory she was seized by Worthly, who threw a cloak over, her face and dragged her into the basement of the factory. Worthly had repeatedly sought the girl's hand in marriage, and had called at the Dana mansion at frequent intervals, only to be repulsed by her father. Once in the deserted factory Worthly Miss Dana to elope with him. He said he had @ yacht lying at a wharf in Cape Eliza- beth, in which he would take her away. Worthly kept Miss Dana in the deserted factory for several hours, and thi ned to kill_her unless she would consent to elope. The frightened girl had the presence of mind to say that she would leave her home and parents if Worthly would allow her to go home and get her things. After Miss Dana had promised to meet Worthly two hours later, Worthly allowed her to go. pace > Steere ESCAPED THE LYNCHERS, A Mob at Clayton, Mo., Disappointea at Losing Their Prey. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Jan. 19.—At 1 am a telephone message came to Sheriff Garrett at the city prison from Clayton, announc- ing that the mob which had assembled for the purpose of lynching Robert Johnson, who outraged two old women last night, had dispersed after finding that their prey had disappeared. The sheriff informed the United Press reporter that the prisoner would be taken to Manchester under a heavy guard today for preliminary trial. There is strong probability that a clision between the mob and the officers will then eceur, —_s MEN REFUSED TO YIELD. No Agreement Reached by the Hat Makers a Manufacturers’ Repre- sentatives, DANBURY, Conn., Jan. 19—Yesterday’s conference in the long-drawn-out fight be- tween the hat makers and the bosses last- ed from 2 o’clock in the afternoon until shortly after midnight and then the manu- facturers’ committee withdrew in disgust. It is said the committees were in a fair way of reaching a settlement when the men rejected a proposition made by the manufacturers. This was that the men submit to a reduction for a short time. This, it was stated, was made necessary because of the heavy losses sustained by the manufacturers in the long fight which had been brought by the hatters them- selves. This proposition was rejected with great indignation. The meeting then broke up in disorder. It is thought there will be no more conferences. eae IN SEARCH OF COLGATE. ‘Word Received From the R Sent Out to Find Him. SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 19.—Word has been received from the Colgate relief party sent out from Kendrick, December 29. On January 4 the party was at Hamilton's cabin, on the Middle Fork of the Clearwater, abcut 125 mites from Kendrick, and about thirty miles from where Colgate is supposed to be. The following is from a letter from Pitman, one of the members of the party: “We arrived here yesterday evening. Col- by and I have secured a canoe from some trappers on Pete King creek, one mile above here, and we will start up the river tomorrow, the Sth, with one month's ra- tions. One of the trappers, Walker, goes with us. We turned out our horses when we got here. There is about one foot of snow. We still have hopes of finding Col- gate alive, and returning expect to reach Kendrick about St. Valentine's day.” AE Se MIGHT FIGHT IN GEORGIA, fParty Florida Authorities the Dark About the Ring Site. Sheriff Broward was in Tallahassee, Fla., yesterday and had a conference with Gov. Mitchell relative to the measures to be em- ployed to prevent the Corbett-Mitchell con- test taking place, even in secret. A dispatch from Tallahassee says that the governor instructed the sheriff to be on the alert, and learn, if possible, where the club would attempt to bring Corbett and Mitchell together. The sheriff was assured that if the place chosen could be learned, the governor would order the troops to the scene. Sheriff Broward told the governor that he proposed to do his whole duty, and would use every effort to discover the plans of the club and circumvent them. But while Gov. Mitchell is as determined as ever, it is stated that he is not hopeful of preventing a secret fight, for he feels, if the club peo- ple succeed in keeping their plans secret, that he will be unable to act early enough to interfere. Where the fight will take place is now the all-absorbing question, but, of course, no definite information can be given, as the club people are as dumb as the proverbial oyster. It is stated that Corbett and Mit- chell have signed amended a-ticles agreeing to meet at any place the club may select. This, of course, no longer limits the battle- ground to Duval or St. John’s counties, as stipulated under the old agreement. The club now has the entire state of Florida to choose from, or may even attempt to pull off the contest in the adjoining state of Georgia. In fact, there was a rumor current yeste>- day that Georgia would be selected as the scene for the contest. The Georgia state line is only fifty miles from Jacksonville, easily reached by the railroads, and it is understood that some of the club people feel that they should be safer from interference in the thinly populated section of Georgia adjoining Florida than in the latter state, in view of the determined attitude of Gov. Mitchell. There is plenty of ground in St. John’s and Duval counties, however, and those on the inside say that the place for the fight will be in one of these Florida bailiwicks.

DIET FOR THE SICK. Miss Johnson Lectures on Proper Food and Its Preparation. Convention Hall Food Exposition Popular—Shellfish Were Discussed Today and a Lobster Cooked. From the time the doors open until the closing the pure food exposition at Conven- tion Hall is crowded with an enthusiastic audience, examining the attractions and listening to the band and to Miss Johnson. Last night this charming exponent of high art in cooking lectured on “Sick Diet.” After an introduction concerning diges- tion and foods and the necessity for sick diet kitchens, etc., and while preparing the different recipes, Miss Johnson explain- ed the necessity for certain courses of teaching for different diseases, and the impossibility of giving in a short time more than a suggestion to her hearers as to what could be served and how. The list of foods proper in the feeding of convalescents was then given, being intended for occasions where not the physician, but the nurse or the members of the family of the patient are called upon to prepare or even invent new dishes and to serve them in palatable form. A dainty tray was placed at Miss John- son’s left, prepared for an invalid, on which had been put a poached egg that had been prepared in a novel and attractive way, the white being beaten stiff and dry and cooked on hot water and then the egg added. This was done on an electrical chafing dish. The proper cooking of con- valescence foods was also touched upon. An Interested Audience, The audience filled the lecture room of Convention Hall and contained many phy- siclans and professional nurses, as weil as others who had heard Miss Johnson lec- ture in the morning at Columbia University on sick diet kitchens, and desired to pur- sue the subject further under her skillful guidance. Questions that showed the ques- tioners understood the subject frequently were asked, and at the conclusion of the lecture most of those present gathered around Miss Johnson on her platform and continued their interrogatories and congrat- lations for some time. During the course of the lecture Miss Johnson was presented by the manage- ment of the pure food exposition with a beautiful bouquet of pink roses. During the lecture the following recipes for food for the convalescent were prepare® and explained: Farina Gruel. To a tablespoonful of farina add a cup of boiling water, with a saltspoonful of salt. Cook in a farina boiler until it thick- ens. Then add one cup of milk and cook for ten minutes. Serve with or without sugar. Beef Juice. Cut one pound of beef from the round very fine. Put it in a glass jar and place the jar in cold water on the back of the stove where it slowly heat for an hour, then bring it to the front part of the stov where the water will simmer, not boil up, for an hour. Season and serve. Beef Tea. Beef tea is made the same as beef juice with the addition of a cup of cold water to every pound of meat, before the meat is put into the jar. Beef juice is also prepared by broiling the meat slowly, then cutting it very fine and squeezing all the juices from it. Or it may be put, after it is chopped, into a broiling pan and cooked for thirty min- utes in a very slow oven. Then all the juice should be squeezed from it. Egenogs. Break the yolk of an egg into a glass. Add one teaspoonful of sugar and beat until light. Then add one cup of warm milk, mix well, and add one tablespoonful of brandy.

Scald one cup of milk, then add one-half @ cup of sherry, and let it stand until the albumen of the milk is curdled. Drain from the whey and serve the latter at onca, About Shellfi: ‘The lecture this afternoon was on shell- fish, in which a boiled lobster was opened for the benefit of the audience, a lucid ex- planation being given of the best way to Prepare the lobster, and also how to serve as either broiled or boiled lobster, From this lobster was made Lobster Farci. To every cup of boiled lobster add the yolks of two hard-boiled eggs, one table- spoonful of chopped parsley, one table- spoonful of butter, one tablespoonful of bread crumbs, one cup of milk and one tablespoonful of flour. Scald the milk and rub the butter and flour until smooth, and add to the scalded milk. Stir it until it thickens. Put over the fire, and add the rest of the ingredients, mashing the hard- boiled eggs to a paste. Mix carefully and gently. After carefuly wiping the shells of the lobster fill with the mixture. Brush over with a beaten egg and a raw egg. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and brown in @ quick oven. . The next recipe given was for broiled lobster, when a live lobster was killed, opened and prepared for broiling before the audience. Miss Johnson carefully explained that the method of killing the lobster by severing the back bone before the lobster was cut open was the most merciful, as in the other case the fish was put over the fire and killed slowly, while when the back bone was severed it dies instantly before being opened. Oysters were prepared in several ways, the recipes being given below for curried and broiled oysters. Curried Oysters. Drain one pint of oysters from their liquor, adding one-half a cup of cold water. Bring the oyster liquor to a boil and skim, Melt one tablespoonful of butter and brown. Adi ore tablespoonful of flour and brow! add one cup of the oyster liquor and stir until it thickens. When thickened add to it the oysters; cook, stirring all the while, until the edges curl. Season to taste with salt, pepper and curry powder. Broiled Oysters. Drain one pint of oysters from their liquor, adding one-half a cup of cold w: ter. Bring the oyster liquor to a boil and skim. Melt one table:poonful of butter and brown; add one tablespoonful of flour and brown; add one cup of the oyster liquor and stir until it thickens. Put the sauce into a farina boiler. Dry the oysters on a cheese cloth. Heat a griddle smoking hot and broil the oysters, browning first on one side and then on the other. Put them |as fast as they are broiled into the brown sauce. When all are finished, season to taste with salt, pepper and a little tomato catsup and serve on toast. Broiled Lobster. ‘The lobster was placed on a broiler, flesh side up, and broiled slowly until a delicate brown. When done a dressing of two ta- blespoonfuls of melted butter was poured over it, and it was served with wild cherry sauce, Handsome Scene. The table both in the afiernoon and even- ing of Thursday attracted general atten- tion because of its gorgeous red settings, being lighted by a banquet and two prin- cess lamps, having red shades, the color being reflected from the array of glittering cut glass and silver of the dinner table. The decorations were of red carnations ar- ranged in bouquets at the side of each plate on the table. The background of red hangings covered with delicate asparagus sprays added the finishing touch to a really beautiful scene. On Saturday afternoon the lecture will be on meats, also on larding, trussing and roasting. By request Miss Johnson will open a chicken and cut it for a fricassee. > Obtained 85,000 for a Broken Pro: ie The jury in the breach of promise suit for $50,000 damages of Maude Halliday against Charles Schildwacther otf New York has given a verdict for the plaintiff of 35,- 000. —————————X—<———[T[aaS—X—X—X—X—X—XSXSXS—X— eZ’ INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS.
