two gastronomic novelties have re
cently been introduced into the city.
The first, it is said, owes its popularity,
if not origin, to a yonng southern mem
ber of the Manhattan club, who not long
ago surprised his waiter and the chef of
the clnb by ordering broiled bacon served
With a plain lettace salad.
The waiter hesitated before filling the
novel order, and inquired a second time
to assure himself that he had heard
aright. When the news of the novelty
became noised abroad, and the members
of the club learned that it was the gen
tleman’s custom to order bacon with his
lettuce, they indulged in a great deal of
good natured chaffing at his expense.
Finally one after another tried thq
combination, found it palatable and bore
testimony of the fact. Th% oddity has
now become extremely popular in the
city. It is remarkably palatable.
Try it yourself some time if you doubt
this statement.
The other dish is also a combination.
It is much affected in the better class of
chop, houses in both New York and
Brooklyn. It consists of a broiled En
glish chop, broiled bacon and fried
sausages, served together.
The dish has about it the suggestion of
ill advised bounty commonly met with
at an up country dinner party. It fills a
long felt want, however, in that it will
appease the appetite of a very hungry
man who has a good digestion.
Try this, too, some time when yon
chance to steal into a chop house and
don’t know what to order.—New York
Herald.
Why the Trie* of Houp Wmn Ilai»«*4l.
The price has been advanced five cents
a plate for soup orders at Young’s hotel
because we would like to freeze out
those who are known us the “soup
fiends.” They order a plate of soup, and,
not content with the allowance of bread
and butter usually accompanying such
an order, ask for more. Soinetine-s this
order is repeated twice and throe times,
so that when we come to reckon up the 1
profits of the dt^ we find that we are not 1
infrequently out from ten to fifteen cents
on soup orders. This is the reason we
liave raised the price of soup from fifteen
to twenty cents per plate. The same 1
difficulty has prevailed in other hotels,
and 1 am pleased to learn that the pro
prietors, like ourselves, have made a
notable advance in the price. It is the
only way to hope for anything like a
profitable business with these people.— |
Interview in Boston Globe.
Good Corn to
A Kansas paper says the entire supply
of Jerusalem corn came from two ker
nels. These produced the seed from
which five bushels were raised the fol
lowing season, and the next crop amount
ed to .KM bushels.
The plant grows to the height of about
three feet and resembles broom corn or
sorghum. The grain is white and an
swers every purpose which is served by
Indian corn. It makes sweeter and bet
ter bread, and is delicious \#ien boiled
after the manner of oatmeal. In wet
weather it runs to stalks and grows six
feet high, without any graiu to speak of.
U produces best when the season is j
dry, and after the plant gets a star?it is |
said to he alwolutely impervious to the
influence of drought and hot winds.
The farmers of western Kansas are pre
paring to engage in its culture next sea
son to a large extent.
Up a Tree.
A Russian civil official reports to Uie
govormnent that in January he saw a
pack of wolves estimated to number
2,000, and that half an hour later he saw
another pack about . F >00 strong, all seem
ingly in good condition and prepared to
devour anything eatable which might
come handy. He adds, as a sort of an
apology for making the report, that he
was up a tree when he saw the wolves.

Him M»(l« a Lord.
One of England’s most popular states
men. Sir Henry James, has been practi
cally shelved by being elevated to the
house of lords as a life peer and lord of
appeal. He was offered the lord high
chancellorship with a salary of $50,000 a
year and a peerage by Mr. Gladstone in
1886, hut declined it because he did not
believe in home rule.—Harper's Weekly.
Miss Harriet E. Lathrnp, M. D., resi
dent [uithologist at the State Hospital
for the Insane in Norristown, Pa., is
making her influence and intelligence
felt in that institution. In the woman’s
ward a man is never admitted except in
consultation or accident. The patients
are in charge of women, from the head
physician down to the night wateh.

His hop house is to he converted into

each 24 feet square, with a capacity of
10,000 eggs. He will begin by trying

On April 4, 1879, the dividends “due
and not demanded" in the Bank of Eng
land amounted to £928,822 2s. Id.; on
July 4, £886,367 17s.; on Oct. 4, £868.
435 18s. 6d., and on Jan. 3, 1880, £856,
010 17s. 8d. It would therefore seem
that the nnclaimed dividends are lessen
ing mnch more qnickly than the national
debt.
The mikado of Japan is to visit Wies
baden next summer, partly for the
waters and partly for the spectacle “of
innocent merriment.” Six villas have
been engaged for the etniieror and his
suite, which will comprise at least sixty
persons. No mikado has ever before left
his own dominion.
