COFFEE-MAKING A FINE ART.| It Is Easily Acquired, However, by All Hous:wives. “Good coftee and good blends are neces- sary in all cases where a good cup of cof- fee Is expected,” sald a well known chef, who has for years had a reputation for the excellence of the coffee served to his customers. “Java gives the best satisfac- tion. The term ‘blend’ refcrs to the dis- trict from which the article comes, not peclally good in cold weather, as the chill makes it all the more pleasant by con- trast, owing to its delicacy and fts warmth-giving properties. Care should be taken that the cream is fresh or it will | curdle in the bolling with the coffee. “After having made your coffee accord- Ing to the instructions already detal draw your coffee off into a sel and thoroughly cleanse percol, Y our pot and as if to make new | cup of speclal coffee | spoonful of freshly | e in the pot or percolator, | the coffee, which has been | n o nto the vessel in the pot oF ' ar containing the freshly ground | eans.

When the coffee is ground too fine or pul- verized a drink is made quicker from it, perhaps, but it loses its character to some extent. It 18 best to have the bean ground medium. In this state the deleterious ele- ments are not thrown off as in others, and the bitter flavor sometimes encoun- tered is not found. “Jt is_too often’ true that the reason oor coffee is gerved In households where rn all other respects the best cooking is exacted is because the servants are care- less and the mistress of the house does not herself know how to brew a cup of the beverage as it should be ps red. To secure the best results in the kitchen it 18 necessary for the mistress to teach the cook the art of making coffee. This can be done by anplylnf the formula which I use. Once learned it is never for- gotten, and If there Is any variation it can be detected by the mistress. When A new servant comes the lesson should be taught over again. Considering the large amount of the bean that is con- sumed in every household it seems right that above all else the women of the land shouid know how to prepare the most popular of drinks. “Take a granite coffee pot, free from any abrasion where the iron may be ex- posged to the coffee. The contact of these two I8 ruinous. This applies to tin pots, too; In fact, where any metal is used and is exfloned to the action of the cof- fee, or where the bottom of the pot or the gurface edges are worn. The vessel should be a drip pot. Whether it be a cloth, china or metal sieve, it Is best to have a drip arrangement. A cloth drip or bag, or such a percolator as has a cloth attachment is recommended.

Th(?' invartadly put spurs to their pedals, "l I‘(l were, and got out of the way as quickly as possible. This had occurred to ahcerlaln party of cyclists so frequently that one of them, bolder than the rest, dismounted to investigate. He found n the center of a newly planted fleld a small shade thatch, and near by a stake to which was attacheq a rope, at the other end of which a collfe dog was prancing and barking. There was not a human be- Ing in sIght, and the dog could certainly pot have been confined there with the {dea of scaring away tramps, for his an- Ues showed that he was overjoyed to be- hold the stranger. As the sun was very hot In the field, the bieyelist concluded to rest a4 while under the thatch, still marveling at the situation of his canine acquaintance. A few moments later a lonesome ‘“‘Caw, caw, " was heard in the alr. The dog at once became atten- tive: he lay close to the ground, with his head cocked on one side, A family of {rows presently alighted in the field, but before they could begin their meal the dog was up and at them.

NEARLY ALL THE BOOKS WIN AGAIN Many Upeets in the “Sloppy Going at Tanforan—Mor- inel in Fron:. The slaughter of the favorites con+ tinued at Tanforan Park yesterday, and for the time being the bookmaking fra- ternity appear to be masters of the situa- tlon. The races broke so nicély for the layers of odds that even the fleld books made money, for a change.

DAN HALIFAX A SURPRISE The Californla took no chances in book- | 1 | ing “What Happened to Jomes.” The management knew the play, the player | and the combination. The whole affair | 18 as smoothly professional as Broadhurst and Harry Corson Clarke, which is very | much so findeed. The gaunt, squar shouldered comedian of the Yankee- | shrewd eyes is exactly what he was of old—not one whit more or less. He never lags in his rattling pace; he never rises to brilliancy. He has always a fund of | wholesome humor to draw from. _It is cold, clean, shiny humor—a neat varnish on the surface of thin The surprise of the play 1s Dantel Hali- fax as Richard Heatherly. Mr. Halifax has been a pleasant member of the Al- cazar company, and so far so good. But he barely binted at what was eoming. His new environment had a startling ef- fect. It drew the cork of the champagne —a_champagne full of quivering lights and shifting colors. Mr. Halifax is of a positive temperament; high strung, en- thusiastic. Hitherto we have known him merely as a young gentleman who could wear_a dress suit without bidding for a That fact alone made him something mrhf’ on the stage. In his part o Richard his spirits have risen like a colt’'s in new meadows, and his little scene with | the old professor, where he coaxes, urges and finally bears him away to the prize- fight, is lgm gem of the first act. iss Laura Crews is another young San Franciscan who s blossoming. ‘“‘She is | very pretty,” sald the gentlemen in the Joge ot the end of act L. “Bhe Is & good actress,” they added after act IL ‘“The best woman in the cast,” at the evening’s | close. | The much advertised Miss Bannin plays her old_maid part in a common place way. The professor, an excellent opportunity, fails to score, although flaw- less. More faults and more merits might win where dull faultlessness passes un- noticed. Wherein lies a nice ilttle moral for him who a moralizing would go. SARAI COMSTOCK. MME. BISHOP PROVES A GIFTED VOCALIST Owing to the inclement weather there was not as large an audience at Sherman & Clay Hall last evening as Mme. Gen- evra Johnstone Bishop deserved. Mme. Bishop possesses a natural dramatic soprano of much force—a voice which seems created for the grander composi- tlon, and it must be a veritable treat to listen to her in oratorio recitals. This came Sp ly into evidence while she rendered Gounod's “Jerusalem,” where the fervor of the composition demanded ust a volce of such strength as that of me. Bishop. Surely this able artiste, with her mag- nificent soprano and fine presence, shouid never fail to gain enthusiastic applause from an admiring public. The San Fran- cisco Philharmonic orchestra played some selections and also the accompaniment to the solofst. An orchestra of this Rind should not attempt to play accompan ments for an accomplished singer. It {s | impossible that such short experience as that of the Philharmonic can achieve sat- | sfactory results in accompaniment. They #hould first practice a few years and then Mr. Howe may risk bringing them out, but as matters stand now this sort of thing will never do. There {s considerable vim and dash to be observed and the strings and wood wind are good. The brass, however, needs a little improve- ment. Bernhard Molienhauer played a few violin solos excellently, and Mrs. W. J. Batchelder accompanied’ s londldl" on the plano. ALFRED METZGER.

It happened that there was an English- man present, and he promptly sald, with unmistakable English accent “Quite right, Mr. Greeley The country needs a ‘licking.

When the petition was filed here a few weeks ago it was the cause of a decided sensation, for there s no one In the whole county better known than Loren Coburn, against whom the charge is made. He is one of the ploneer set- tlers on the coast side and has accumu- lated property that probably makes him a millionaire. In the petition it leged that Coburn is mentally incom to manage his property, and that by rea- son of old age, disease and weakness of mind he is iikely to be decelved and im- posed upon by designing and artful peo- ple; that he is t owner of more than 30,000 acres of land In San Mateo, S Cruz, Monterey and Merced countfes v ued at over $250,000. Petitioner p Jihfel C. Coburn, a brother of respon t, be appointed guardian of his person bLnd estate. Coburn appeared In court this morning and through his attorneys filed an answer to the petition thereof. One ri v. 16, hearing Wheeler to have case is that almost th, where for years there bitter feelin, been a most agailnst Coburn on account beach” ltigation, is pres- dy to testify in his behalf, idered that attempt & made to rallroad him into an asy- lum. “All hard feeling has been laid aside now that he is in trouble The first witness cal was Jiblel C. Coburn, within the last few mont business and soctal visits to his brother; that when they went out to visit the large ranches owned by the latter his brother would ask to whom the ranches belonged and who was living upon them. From what he saw of his brother and his tions the witness was of the opinfon that his brother was not in his right mind and was unfit to transact any business. Here the witness was withdrawn to give the defense an opportunity to ex- amine a witness out n! order. Henry Cowell, the miilionaire business man of San Francisco, was the He owns several thousand land near Pescadero, and has this morning o stated that hs he had made acres done of business with Coburn for upward of forty years. The witness thought that the incompetent was the shrewdest bust ness man he had ever met. On cross. examination he admitted that Coburn not so light-hearted as in former and was more serious in business actions.

Aaron Crosby’s Queer Way of Dec- orating His Wives' Graves. William McKilllp, at an early da; citizen of Traverse City, but for m{nr'; years a resident of Muskegan, tells a 1. rious coincidence which came in the list of his experiences. Mr. McKillip fs a native of Washington Count ew York, leaving it in 1846, and In a cemetery thers Harold Coffin of | with which he was familiar in early lifo were deposited the remains of the of one Aaron Crosby. As a monu rent to her memory thera was place over her grave a pommon castiron cook- Ing stove, on the top of which a marble elab, with the appropriate Inscription of name, etc. The pecullarity of the cook- stove monument naturally !mpressed (t- there wi | self upon his mind, aside from the fact that he was acquainted with the man who sought In this novel manner to per- etuate his wife’s memory, but he was estined t ey lnnl:mr monumne "'q"',"'” same sort.

In looking about he came upon the counterpart of the cookstove memorial, and upon reading the inscription on the slab found that wife No. 2 of Aaron Cros. by was resting beneath.
