LADIES PRESENT | Women Must Learn the Methodsi of Boiling, Baking, Roasting | and Frying. The new society for the introduction of | scientific cooking gave its initial lecture yesterday afternoon at Golden Gate Hall | on Sutter street in the p: nce of over 500 ladies, many of them oeing well knowg in sos The lecturer was Mrs. Emma P. Ewing of the Chautauqua, New York, Scientific School of Cooking. Mrs. Ewing isa woman | ing the several ingredients and told which should be used first. She added that bak- | ing powder may be used in the preparation | of tl}:gse, but that care must be used in the amountemployed, “for,” said she, “‘a great | deal depends upon giving things in this | world a proper start, even giving muffinsa proper start with baking powder."” | )K’es. Ewing then announced that, if a | sufficient number of ladies would agree, | she would 'gve them a course of five les-| sons for $1 25, the first of which would be | the making of bread. She said that since | her arrival here she had not seen any | bread cooked upon scientific principles, and that the bread served hereisa dis-| grace to the community. She promised to teach them to make good, wholesome | bread, and that the method is so simple | that a 10-year-old child could learn to | make it in a short time. Mrs. Ewing then gavea lesson on the chafing-dish, showing how sweetbreadsare repared with cream sauce over an alcohol amp. She showed how asmooth sauce for this delicacy is made by using butter | in the proportion of twice ‘as much flower as butter and cream. Oa the chafing-dish | she said 150 dishes can be cooked, and she | then told of how & lady in Los Angeles bad entertained a party of friende at a din- ner that the local papers said had been cooked by her husband, showing that hus- bands nowadays are turning their atten- | tion to a very interesting art. ‘ IMPORTANT WORK- AHEAD.

Mrs. Ewing then dwelt upon the purpose of the cooking school. Scientific cooking, said the lecturer, is the true foundation of cooking and the science should be under- stood before fancy dishes were prepared. It is something like a dressmaker who would attempt to make all the fancy trim- ming and furbelows before making the | ski She then said that there are four | methods of cooking food—by boiling, by | baking, by roasting and by frying. These | methods should be thoroughly understood | before any one attempts to prepare food | from recipes. The lecturer then devoted herself to tell- ing the ladies how to make what she termed “that homely food”—corn bread. “Now,”’ said she, “the underlying prin- ciple in the preparation of thisisin hav- ing the bowl to be used, the spoon and the | measuring cup warm. In this warmed | bowl I place half a pint of meal and add | to it three-quarters of a cup of scalding { water and stir it. Now it is as much cooked as if it had been for a long time in an oven after having been placed there cold. ThenIadd a small teaspoonful of butter, an even teaspoopinl of sugar, half | as much salt and sugar and half 2 cup of | sweet milk.

A number of the ladies signified their intention to take thecourse of five lectures prg‘posed Mrs. Ewing has for fourteen years been connected with the hautauqua school and was connectea with the University of La- fayette, Ind., and at Eames, Ia., where scientific cooking is part of the curriculum. MES. EINCKLEY'S OLASS. They Watoh How Some Very Palatable Dishes Are Prepared. The first lecture by the new demonstra- | | tor for the society for scientific cooking did not draw any of the class that attends {. E. Hinckley’s cooking school at 03 Sutter street yesterday afternoon. The ladies who attend there have deter- mined to learn what the demonstrator knows, and yesterday afternoon they learned more about making lobster bisque, a fish puree, how to cook tomcods en papillote with tartar sauce, and how to Erepare a chantilly cake, than they ever | new before. In that practical manner that has marked Mrs. Hinckley’s course, she demonstrated how these palatable | dishes are prepared, and almost every | member of the class expressed a deter- | mination to make a trial of them at home. | Next Monday the menu will be puree of | spinach, cheesestraws, cutlets a la Main- | tenon and sultana roll.

Mr. Hanson said yesterday: There is a great deal of important work be- fore tne bureau in the immediate future. The law is broad and comprehensive and the bu- perly orgapized and eficiently con- ! be the means of doing & great deal I have traveled all over California in all directions, from side to side and from end to end, and I am well informed on the condition of the public roads. Some of them are very good, indeed, but a great many ere in need of immediate improvement. There is a vast amount of money expended on roads in this State, and a still greater smount is wasted for the want of good roads through some of the country districts. The ducted, will | breakages of vehicles, the cost of repairs, the exheusting of the energies of man and beast and the time lost in hanling balf loadsare items of direct expenditure that should re- ceive more attention in the future than they have done in the past. It will be the aim of the burean toreach every road district in the State at the earliest time possible so as to give them the full bene- fits of the law. There is no State in the Union | where good roads could be found more service- sble and profitable either as a business propo- sition or a source of pleasure.

Among the first items in the work will be the location and direction of an efficient rock- crushing plant at the Folsom prison and the arrangement of modes for distributing the rock in the sdjacent counties, and such other counties and distriets as can be economically !uxpplied from that source. t will be our duty to advise the Boards-of Supervisors of the different counties as to the best means for building and maintaining pub- lic Toads, but_in these matters we have no But we have executive au- thority over all roads that are to be constructed by the State. Again, the burean will act asan advisory body t0 the State in so far asa unifi- cation of State laws relating to the acquisition of rights of way, construction and mainten- snceof highways are concerned. The law provides, among other things, that it shall be the duty of the Bureau of Highways to r from each county in the State statisties g the _total mileage of highways, their eondition of improvement, the condition of the titles to right or way, the method of o taming title and keeping the records thereof; the method of procedure in granting, closing and altering roads; the manner in which roads are constructed and maintained; the amount expended in the last ten years for highway purposes, together with the Tate of taxation on =100 that is appointed to the road tund. The buresu shall also inquireinto the topographi- cal and geological featu.es of each county, and more partienlarly as to the accessibility of water for road-sprinkiing purposes, and stone quarries, deposits of gravel, bituminous rock, sand, adobe, or any other material suitable for | road making purposes. One or more members of the burean shall visit each county in the State at least once in each year, and shall hold therein & public meeting, at which there shall be an open discussion of all matters relating to highways or highway improvement. In speaking of the proposed bounlevard from this city to and through the Santa Clara Valley, Mr. Manson said: The boulevard dpmpoemon advecated by the CALL is & splendid thing, and should be earn- estly supported, officially and otherwise. The interests of the whole community will be well served by the construction of those boulevards. You will hardly find & trained engineer in the world who does not recognize that the dawn of science in engineering commenced with the construction of great public roads. The grand old roads built in prehistoric times, and which are still in existence, demonstrate this fact. Many of those roads are still in use, after a lapse of more than twenty centuries. But they were not constructed of rotten rock and poor cement. _Another !hing which Mr. Manson con- sidered was that they were not looked after and kept in repair by men with a “pull” on the ruling political bosses of the times. The Horton Estate. Judge Hant yesterday decided the suit of Patrick McNamara vs. Kate McGruder, execu- trix of the last will of Rose Horton, in favor of the defendant. The contention of plaintiff uired posses- sion of a lot on Hampshire and from a man mentally Incompetent. The court decided that this conteption was not supported by the evidence. A Robber Punished.
