THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1903. NUSINDSS CHANOES, BUSINESS CHANCES, 27% ” QUAR_TERLY DIVIDENDS PAID NOVEMBER 2, 1903. As prognostidhted by us three months ago our quarterly dividends paid by us > vember 2, 1903, to all our Investors reached the Immense figure of 21 per cent, sur- passing all our former records for hand- mome quarterly dividends and thoroughly eclipsing those made by any other com- ny in existence. Remember these quar- terly dividends are in addition to our regularly weekly dividends of 4 per cent. Owing to the inauguration of new flelds for winter operations we have no hesitancy In assuring our investors that our NEXT QUARTERLY DIVIDEND, February 1, 1903, will more than double any February dividends made by us here- tofore. Let us explain to you our methods, together with references in your own locality THE METROPOLITAN ASSURANCE AS- SOCIATION (Incorporated), 200 BROADWAY, NEW YORK. Y -962—8x THE C. B.

A Rich Chbstnut Filling—The most ap- proved chestnut filling for turkey is made\ of the bolled or roasted nuts, mashed, sea~ soned with butter, salt and pepper, but those who are willlig to tax digestion for sake of varfety may try the following: Roast thirty large chestriuts, remove the shells ‘and Inner brown skin. Take about ten of the chestnuts and pound to a paste with the cooked turkey liver; season to taste with salt and pepper, add a few drops of onfon julce and teaspoonful of mixed parsley; bind together with the yolks of two eggs. Fill this into the cavity at the neck and sew up. For_the body stuffing take fve or six links of the tiny smoked sausage and cut into small pleces. Mix with a cup of fine bread crumbe, pepper, salt, two ounces of melted butter and the remainder of the chestnuts, using them whole. Chestnut Sauce, to Serve with Turkey— Remove the shells from four dosen large | chestnuts and put them in & roaster—an iron pan with holes—place them over & clear, bright fire and stir and shake them about constantly untl the skins can be re- moved easily. Then put them into a sauce- pan with a gill of white wine or good sharp cider and enough clear stock to cover well. Add an ounce of butter, & large teaspoon- ful of sugar and & grating of nutmeg. Boll until quite tender, keeping them whole. Remove the chestnuts to a hot, covered sauce dish, reduge the lfquor by bolling it down a few minutes longer, then pour over the chestnuts and serve with turkey, Chestnut Cutlets—Take fifty French or large chestnuts. Remove the shelis and put the nuts into a dish, with enough water or broth to cover, and cook until tender, then drain from the broth and pound or chop them very fine, adding a tablespoon of warmed butter while chopping them; then add another tablespoon of butter, salt to taste; then add gradually a cup of good, sweet cream. When well mixed rub through a codrse sleve. Then stir in four well-beaten eggs, turn the mixture into a double boiler und cook & few minutes, stirring all the time. The mixture should be a smooth, thick paste. Spread it out on & large platter, and when cool enough ! mould into small cutiet-shaped fqrms; cover with beaten egg, then with fine bread crumbs and fry in deep hot fat, same a8 croquettes. Chestout Pudding—Peel and boll fifty-or | eixty large chestnuts; when tender remove the brown skins and pound fine; add the grated rind of haif & lemon or orange, | quarter of a pound of powdered sugar and | & flavoring of orange flower water or va nilla. Add a cupful each of fine bread and sweet bicult crumbs, @ cup of rich, sweet | cream, and mix the whole well together | with six well-beaten eggs. Put into a well- buttered mould, sprinkie the top with pow- dered sugar ‘and place in a hot oven for a few minutes until & nice brown. m———— Seed Merchants Fail.

The demand for the latter, however, is very heavy and jobbers anticipate a very heavy trade for the holidays. In the line of fish Holland herring s re- ported considerably higher than it was a week ago. Not only that, but Indlcations are favorable for still higher prices in the | future, even in the face of the large catch. Mackerel continues to advarce steadlly and the only sizes now avallable of the Ame jean catch run 130 to 140 to the barrel. Pra tically_ no small fish were caught this sea- son. There are some Irish and Norway mackerel available, running 300 to 3% to the barrel, but prices are very high. 80 far s the demand for all seasonable and staple lines is concerned, local jobbers say they never experienced a better trade at this time of the year than they are hav- ing at the present time. Cotton Goods Advanoing. The cotton goods market has taken a de- cided boom during the last week or two. Leading four-yard goods have been ad- need Ye and all lines on which reductions HARDWARE MARKET SHOWS WEAKNESS Cotton Goods, However, Very Stromg Position and Loeal Jobbers Look for No Reduc- i in Prices this Seasonm, Are in =a The first half of last week's trade on seasonable goods was rather quiet, both in a wholesale and retafl way. The latter part of the week, however, owing to the cooler weather, the retall demand showed considerable imprgvement, That, retailers say, is good proof that they were correct In saying that all they needed to make business good was 'seasonable weather. They are now more confident than ever that business will be good throughout the season. Trade I8 naturally quiet with wholesalers this ig- their dull period. Not much rade, In fact, is expected until merchants have 'had time to sell out a large part of the stocks they already have on their shelves. Future business, however, is go- ing ahéad of all expectations, as traveling men are meeting with exceptionally goc success. Merchants seera to be more will- ing than usual to place their orders for spring lines, owing, no doubt, in a large measure, to the healthy condition of the market on most lines, There now reems to be no doubt but what the high record established a year ago will easily be position than at any time this season. As reported through these columns A week ago the cotton crop s much smallér than was generally anticipated. The frost of two weeks ago, it seems, did fully as much damage as at first thought and the top cro) il be very lignt, estimates there will be a decided shortage this year and in fact it is feared there will be less cotton avallable than the world consumption for the last twelve month: The fact that no old cotton was carried over of course makes the situation all the more serfous. Taking these facts into con- sideration local jobbers say it is not reason- able to look for any reductions in the price of manufactured goods during the present season. House trade with local jobbers is reported qulet, the same as usual at this time of the year., ~Order business, however, is fairly good for immediate shipment and for fu- vy ture dellvery it is the best ever known at The markets have fluctuated about the | this time of the year.

Orders for underwear, hoslery and shirts have also been very large. Hardware Not So Firm, It is very eovident that the hardware market is not in as strong a position as It has been for some time past.

The export demand con- tinued to improve and, as the factorles are now closed down. it {s not unreasonable to suppose that stiil higher prices will pre- vell in the future. There is a brisk demand for dried fruits and especlally for raisins and prunes. The new crop of prunes is now on the market and jobbers say the quality Is far above the avers | The rice market has evidently reached | the bottom. It has been steadily going down ever since the opening. The small mills apparently were overstocked and anxious to sell and the weakness was largely due to the low prices made by them. Information recently recelved wouid indi- cate that the smaller mills are now pretty well cleaned up and as a result the market has reacted W@4c above the low point. ‘The market now has a much healthler tone end the general opinion is that any changes in_the near future will be in the direction of higher rather than of lower rices. Pithe bean market, to the sBrorise of the {rade, has suftered'a decline of 10G15c per ushel. There is very little change to note in the canned goods situation.

No Change in Leather Goods. The situation with leather goods jobbers Is much the same as {t was & week ago. Immediate business is still good, although colder and more stormy weather might make it still better. Shoe men, theugh, have been doing very little complaining about the weather or about anything else this fall, which is a good indication that they have been enjoying liberal patronage, Advarice orders are also good and In fact considerably better than they were & year nsg at this time. ubber clothing is selling to good advan- tage and jobbers say they have sold more stock this year than ever before.
