F ANYTHING forther were needed to prove the unwisdom and unworthiness of the leaders who are directing the remnants of the waiters’ strike, the attempt to epoil the city’s banquet to the visiting German naval officers at the Waldorf would be convincing. No class of workers is more dependent upon the sympathy and 4 good will of the general public than wniters, becauee few workers come into such direct and personal contact with the public they serve. ’ Yet the leaders of what is left of the strike deliberately planned as a demonstration an effort to wreck a highly popular occasion of public entertainment to visiting guests. Such an attempt was sure to be deeply and gencrally resented. New York has rarely shown itself eo heartily glad to see anybody #8 in its welcome to these courteous, cordial, appreciative German ‘cousins. The city is more than rendy to do its utmost to make them i 2 have a good time. Anybody who tries to spoil any of this particular . party is gonig to be mighty unpopular, whatever his personal troubles. The city congratulates itself that the police averted disturbance at tho dinner by promptly arresting a hundred of the disturbers. No one begrudges the waiters a hearing and an adjustment of their grievances. But one could wish them better counsel than that of misguided feminine enthusiasm which first incites them to mar an occasion of municipal courtesy and then encourages foolish threats ‘to sue the city for having done its best to escape such humiliation. ee ey . PLAIN PIE. ~ HE CHEF of the late King Edward VII., who hes come to J our shores to how us how to cook “without drudgery, with- out odors and at the same time get the entire benefit of tho raw product,” lays great stress on the late King’s fondness for simple fare—“plain bourgeois cookery.” English and Germans in cottage and castle have always prided et the Preas Publishing ‘Company, Nos. 63 to The Evening| For England and the Continent’ and themselves on their preference for homely dishes. But they have a managed to concoct out of plain ingredients some imposing combina- pt tions. A famous physician of three kings—James I., Charles I. and » Charles II.—who, like many doctors of his day, delved deep into the ‘ science and art of cookery, left one of the most elaborate of British » cook books which he called by the modest title of “Archimagirus ‘3° Anglo-Gallicus.” : Ip this book the first stmple little recipe, which the good doctor regarded as his masterpiece, is called “A City of London Pie,” and runs as follows: a Take eight marrow bones, etphtcen sparrows, one pound t of potatoes, a quarter of a pound of eringoes, two ounces of Tet. tuce stalks, forty chestnute, half a pound of dates, a peck of . oysters, @ quarter of o pound of preserved oltron, three arti- chokes, twelve egge, two eiced lenione, a handful of pickled barberries, @ quarter of an ownce of whole pepper, half an ounce of whole cinnamon, @ quarter of an ounce of whole cloves, half an ounce of mace and a quarter of a pound of currants, IAquor then it te baked with whtte wine, butter and sugar, This was long a favorite trifle at Lord Mayors’ banquets and Al- , Germanic feasts. It is not uninteresting to know that its amiable inventor thrived ~ » on such cheer until the comfortable age of eighty-two, and that he ~ + ~ firmly believed his last illness to have been caused by drinking bad _ * wine with a merry company at a tavern in the Strand. an) “Good wine,” he liked to declare, “is slow poison: I have drunk | & St all my lifetime, and it hae not killed me yet; but bad wine is _. * sudden death.” BA . _ eH ian ND SO a Swiss hotel-keeper who has come to visit us says the bs . A American abroad is the delight of Europe, that it is a pleasure - to please him, that he is good natured, that his manners are + perfect; that the American woman has a knack of wearing the most * ‘deautiful clothes beautifully, is hardly ever ill and is altogether a most desirable guest; and that the rich American knows what he wants and is ready to pay for it, while the poor American is grateful for almost . ‘anything at all! : This hotel nan entertains about ten thousand of us every year * wight in his hotel, so if we hud any little faults he would surely have » #potted ’em. Altogether we guess he must be nearly right. 4. i 669 SHALL SCOUR Germany, Australia and the northern countries, | ° : keeping as far as possible from the beaten trail,” —Tribune interview with a welbknown theatrical man- ager starting for a brief trip to Europe, Some scouring, just to avoid a trail!

INUS, King of Nineveh, paused in his triumphant march of Quest (about 800 B. C.) to subdue Bactria, his enemies’ city, But his best troops were hurled back beaten from city’s walls. His cleverest plans failed. He could neither the place nor capture by siege, Unless he could take Bactria his ; Would be a failure, His scheme of conquest seemed crumbling, Then was that a woman came to his ald; and, incidentally, changed bistory. The woman was Semiramis, wife of Oannes, one of Ninus’s She was only twenty years old. And she was not only @loriously but gifted with a genius worthy of Napoleon. Semiramis went to the | of the sorely perplexed King and in @ dozen words explained to alm @ ’ | whereby he could capture Bactria. Her plan was 60 amazingly withal simple that it roused the King’s wildest admiration. He her advice; seized Bactria, and then found he had fallen hopelessly im with the woman who had made the city’s conquest possible to him. But Oannes, her husband, also adored her. And he had no wish to gtve her ; @% even to his King. Finding resistance to the royal wil was Imposstiie, Oannes killed himself. And Ninus married Semiramis, $ As soon as she was Queen she began to work for ¢he advencement ber new husband's kingdom. And, when she had helped nim one of the greatest on earth, she decided to get rid of own account, Whether she was avenging Oannes cannot be known. This te what she did — SSS & meant much to her, Ninus consented. In tact, by this time he was so utterly under her influence that he could deny her nothing. He handed Semiramis the reins of full power “for five short days.” Before the end of that time she had put Ninus to death and was sole monarch of the Team, ‘Then Semiramis proceeded to qualify as the first “New Woman" of ‘history, * ‘Without in any way ceasing from her conquest of hearts (and the chrontele of her romances is as long tt Je unedtfying) she set out to conquer world as well.

Returning to her kingdom, she built Babylon, the olty whose hanging gardens (nearly 40 fect above @round) formed one of the Seven Wonders of the world. Babylon's fifty otre were laid out in exact checkerboard pattern, each fifteen miles long. « They were #urounded by a square of walls, each side of which was fifteen miles in length, 960 feet high and 87 feet thick. One hundred gates of sold brass were out into the walls.
