Berlin News GANNING LECTURES GIVEN IN BERLIN ean Speaks to Two Large diences in Church Kitchen WOMEN ENTHUSIASTIC M;my Still Surrounds Disappear- ance of Baggage Master Culver— Two Local Young Men Called Into Service—One Gets Commission. Mrs. Julian M. Dean, teacher of sctence in the Hartford High school, who is demonstrating canning for the Hartford County League and the food committee gave two lectures on how to can garden products and fruit be- fore large gatherings of women in the kitchen of the Berlin Congregational church yesterday. The first lecture which started at 9.30 and finished at 11:30 was attended by about 50 wom- en of the town and vicinity, and at the second one, which was held from 2 to 4, over 75 housewives were pres- ent. Great enthusiasm was manifest- ed in the work and in case there are & sufficient number of women who would like to learn the art of preserv- i1)¢ garden produce an evening .class may be organized. These lectures and demonstrations on canning are given through the of- fice of the Chamber of Commerce in the different cities, with which is co- operating the Connecticut committee on food supply, the Connecticut Agri- cultural college and the ited States Department of Agriculture. The local committee having direct charge of ar- ranging these lectures and from whom further information can be ob- tained, is composed of: Berlin, Mrs. Jarvis, Mrs. Wilcox; Kensington, Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. johnson; Fast Berlin, Mrs. Mildrum and Mrs. Clarke. Mrs. Dean canned fruit and vege- tables and in connection explained how it should be done to get the de- sived result at the least pos le ex- penditure of money and time and in a manner to obtain the greatest ma- terlal saving. Among other things, the expert ex- plained that one of the first prin- olples in canning is to thoroughly sterilize the product and to seal the comtainer absolutely airtight. The va- rlous steps in canning she explained, ghould be taken up in fifteen parts: grade the products according to shape, size and degree of ripeness; wash thoroughly, trim or pare; scald or blanch, according to recipe; dip the product quickly but thoroughly ia cold water; pack carefully in jar add _ poiling liquid; wipe top of jar careful- y; place rubber and cover on jar: partially seal; cook the length of time in recipe; remove jar; tighten cover; cool; test; seal when cool; label. "As one excellent formula for syrup to be used in canning fruits delicate jn flavor and texture, is given, three quarts of sugar and two quarts of water, boiled together. If sugar is too expensive and the furit is such that less s required, three quarts of water and two quarts of sugar works well. | branch of the naval By the cold pack method, however, all fruits can be successfully canned without sugar, it was explained. This cold pack method is one in which the product is sterilized after it is placed in jars and is found to be successful in canning fruits, vegetables and meat. By this method the products retain their natural flavor, color and texture and there is much saving of time and fuel. When canning fruits by the cold pack method, Mrs. Dean advised all women to can the products on the day they are picked. The operation is: cull, string and grade. Blanch in boiling water for two to five minutes. Remove and dip quickly” into cold water. Pack in container. Add boil- ing water to fill crevices. Add one level teaspoonful of salt to each quar®. Partially seal. Sterilize, if in hot water bath, for 120 minutes. Remove jars, tighten covers and pack away. For canning corn the recipe is to re- move the husks and silk and Blanch on the cob in hot water for five to ten minutes. Plunge quickly into cold water and cut corn off cob with sharp knife. Pack in jar and follow above process except that it should be steri- lized in hot water bath for 180 min- utes. Among the many important can- ning suggestions made by Mrs. Dean are the following Be sure and steri- lize all jars and use only the best jars. No glass jars with rufber or metal in direct contact with the food is de- sirable unless cap is enameled or lacquered. To test sealing rubbers the rubber should be folded in half, and it it does not crack it is probably safe. Also, if the rubber, after being stretched, springs back into original shape. Mrs. C. M. Jarvis, chairman of the committee in Berlin, announced that other recipes from Mrs. Dean would intermittently be received and trans- mitted. through the press to the housewives of the community. Mrs. Dean appeared at the Ken- sington Methodist church kitchen this morning and in Athletic hall, East Berlin, this afternoon. Large crowds were on’hand at both places to hear her lecture. Culver Still Missing. Richard Cuilver, baggage master at the Berlin depot, no trace of him has been found. Authorities at the station got in touch with his home at Meriden and, ac- cording to their statement this morn- ing, he has not appeared there. Considerable ihterest has been man- ifested in his mysterious disappeatr- ance and many theoriex advanced. It was thought at first that he was il] at his home but the alleged con- ference with his family by station officials has caused this solution to be laid on the shelf. The last time he was seen was on Sunday when he was at work. As he failed to put in an appearance Monday this will be the fifth day that he has been absent. Barrett Called Out. Ambrose Barrett, about a month ago who enlisted the hospital reserve, was called out Tuesday and is at Brooklyn where he was ordered to report. Mr. Barrett is the son of Mr. and Mrs. A J.

Galway, Ireland, June 30 (Corre- spondence)—Nine Galway fishermen were blown to pieces a few days ago While examining a German ‘“barrel mine” which they had found at sea and towed ashore. Irish fishermen have made lately a great many lucky hauls of barrels con- taining petrol, tallow, oils and similar treasures, supposedly from torpedoed ships. This time they saw a promi di tance from land, with a convenient handle on each side, and they prompt- ly towed it ashore, rolling it up on the beach for examination. Four men were in the boat, and si more gathered around while the prize was on the beach. One man, Joseph O'Flaherty, had a .suspicion of dan- ger, and warned the others, but they paid no attention to him, and he hia himself behind a rock. One of the fishermen removed a (‘0|Iplewf screws from the head of the barrel, and then began to pull out a piece of cord. The explosion which followed was heard miles away, and £hook houses four miles distant After a time O'Flaherty, who had been wounded in the head with a piece of stone, stood up, but not a trace of the mine or the men was to be seen. There was only a great hole in the beach. Searchers found a por- tion of the fishermen’s hoat nearly a mile away. A small boy whose atten- tion was attracted to the group of men on the shore was running toward them just ts the mine exploded. One of his arms was afterwards found near his home, but there was not oth- er irace of him, Plainville News NEGRO WITNESSES RETURNED T0 JAIL Men Who Watched Harris Slay Tanner Fail to Get Release ALL SIGN DISPOSITIONS Pease Swears Harris Told Him of His Plan for Murder—State Claims Slayer Will Hang for Orime—Odd Fellows Install Officers—Brief Items. After repeatedly denying having witnessed the killing or possessing any information of value to the author- ities, Milton Pease broke down follow- ing a vigoraus examination yesterday | and in a formal deposition gave the | police evidence, which the state clainis | is of sufficient strength to make Her- s‘ man Harris forfeit his life in payment for the murder of Frank Tanner, who he stabbed to death in the negro quar- ters on Whiting street on July 4 Pease confessed to having a full knowl- edge of the crime. He also swore to statements showing that the slayer had premeditated the killing and that the murder was committed with due deliberation, Pease’s deposition was obtalned at the Hartford jail before he was brought here with other negroes, held as material witnesses to the murder, for arraignment before Justice E, P. Prior on charges of breach of the peace. He had been told that Pues- odo, Orange and Willarson, three other witnesses, had told the authori- ties all they knew in the hope that the lies they previously had told would be overlooked and they would not be punished. Since the time of his arrest Pease maintained that while he returned to the house with Harris he did nat enter the room in which the murder was committed and had no knowledge con- cerning it. Yesterday he signed a statement in which he admitted that he was told by Harris on the return trip that the latter intended to Kkill Tanner. He then stood by with the other negroes and watched the slayer pounch on Tanner’'s prostrate form and plunge the knife in his thraat None of the men made any attempt to interfere as Tanner was unpopular with them and when Harris left the room after inflicting the wounds which caused the man’s death they, too, made a hurried exit. Pease, in his statement, declared that he owned the knife with which Tanner was killed. He had loaned it to Harris on the morning of the murder, although he did not know until later what use the slayer proposed to make of it. The six negroes locked up in jail since the murder were brought here last evening by Captain Hurley and Officer Wheeler of the state police de- partment and Constable Marino. Since the latter obtained confessions from two of the witn a few days ago a formal statement of their versian of the killing was drawn up in the state’s attorney's office and vesterday four of the men affixed their signa- tures to it. The other two apparently did not see the murderer at work and their release from custody was ordered yesterday. The cases against and Willarson until July 21 reiarned to jail. An effort will be made to have Harris brought before the Superior Court at the present ses- sion and an indictment against him may be asked for within a few days.

Tomorrow will mark the retire- ment from businegs of Franklin P. Frisbie, Plainville's veteran merchant. Mr. Frisbie has sold out his interests in Frisbie and Hemingway's store to his partner, W. J. Hemingway and the new owner will take possession on Monda - Mr. Frishie has been in business in Plainville since he was twenty-one vears old and the townspeople in general concur in the opinion that he has earned a rest. He will continue to live here but will give up all his business connec- tions. Pease, Orange, were continued and they were Os- Se- Fought Hitching Post.
