A Recipe in Season How to Cook
the TuitKEY. Select a flue, plump,
yellow skinned turkey, weighing from
ten to twelve pounds. Examine It
thouroughly to seo that nil tho pin
feathers nro taken out ; Hold it over n
blazo to singo any flno hares that may
remain ; wash It thoroughly Instdo and
out, and rub It over with salt. Tako tho
gizzard, heart and liver, put them In
cold water, mid let them boll until
tender. When dono, chop them very
fine. Tako stalo bread, or tho largo
Boston crackcrs.nnd grato or chop them.
Add salt, pepper and somo sweot herb,
if liked, to tiio bread crumb3, after
which beat two eggs with which lo
moisten tho crumbs; and mix thor
oughly with this chopped "Inward,"
not forgetting to put In salt and butter.
Fill tho insklo of tho turkey with tho
dressing, taking care that tho neck or
crop is mado to look plump, and eow
tho openings, drawing thOBkln tightly
togother. Then rub a littlo butler ovor
your turkey, and lay It upon, tho grato
or your meat pan. Cover tho bottom or
tho pan well with boiling water. After
a half hour basto tho turkey by pouring
ovor It tho grnvey that lias begun to
form in tho pan. Repent tho bastl ng
onco in about fifteen minutes. In an
oven of average toinporatttro a twolvo
pound turkey will requiro nt le.ut thro o
hours ; but ovory oven has Its own way
of baking, and tho cook must bo gov

to prevent tho Berks county railroad

This caused much indignation among
tho peoplo, and tho City Council order
ed tho track torn up that had been laid
at night by tho great corporation. It
was now Mr. Qowen's turn to becomo
indignant nt tho opposition displayed
by. tho City Council, and hostrnlghtway
threatened to removo tho railway shops

Body Found. Murder no Douist
Co.MMiTTED.-On Friday afternoon last,
Mr. John Beacham, miner, while in
specting tho mouth of an old mlno near
Mausdalo observed a slight wall of
stones built up within tho mouth of tho
mine. On pulling away tho stones ho
noticed tho faco of a dead person, tho
body lying on tho ground, and, with the
exception of tho face, covered with small
branches. On investigation tho body
appeared to bo that or a man somewhat
tall and slim, or middlo age, and with a
black moustache Mr. Boachem stat03
that imprints of fingers wero plainly
obsorvablo on tho throat Indicating that
tho man had been choked in a struggle.
There was a wound in tho head and ono
on tho breast. Tho nppearanco of tho
legs indicated that after death somo
person or persons had dragged tho body
a considerable distance to liido It in tho
abandoned mino whero it was found.
Tho deceased had on rour shirts, threo
muslin, and an undershirt. IIo also had
on two pairs of pants, and a summer
overcoat.
Esquire Hendricks, of Valloy twp.,
summoned a jury and held an inquest,
who gave as their verdict, that tho de
ceased came by his deatli from violence
at tho hands of somo person or persons
unknown.
Yesterday, Dr. Orauol, and other per
sons in tills placo, tool: legal measures
to havo tho body exhumed, and hold a
post mortem examination on it. Tho
impression with somo is that tho ro-
mains nro thoso of a German Catholic
priest, who formerly visited this placo.
A Catholic prayer book was found on
tho person of tho deceased. Altogether,
thero is a tcrrlblo mystery surrounding
this no doubt brutal murder. Danville

Bold Roiiuery in Luzerne Coun
ty. A most daring robbery and cruel
treatment of tho immates of tho house
was perpetrated on Friday night near
Carboudalo. As near as wo could ascer
tain, tho following aro tho particulars
or tho affair : On Friday night last, be-
tween tho hours or elovon and twelvo
o'clock, six masked men went t tho
house or Anthony Battle, a merchant
living on tho turnpike in tho suburb or
Carbondale, about 200 foot rrom "Old
Lookout."
Threooflhem entered tho hoii3e,wliilo
threo remained outsldo as spies and to
guard, wo suppose. Tlio bed room occu
pied by Mr. Battio and his Wifo is on
tho samo floor with tho storo. This thoy
entered, and found Mr. Battio and his
wifo in bed. They told them to mako
no noiso nor gi voan alarm or thoy would
kill them. Mr. Uattlo showed fight and
struggled manfully, but It was useless.
Ho whs struck on tho head with tho butt
end of a revolver and stunned, secttrod
and gagged. His wifo was also bound
and gagged, They then went up stairs
whero a servant girl and a nephew or
Mrs. Battio wero sleeping, bound and
gagged them. Having tho houso com
pletely at their mercy, and pait giving
uu alarm and It would havo ninouutud
to nothing if thoy had, as tho houso
wassomodlstanco from any other they
rctumod to Mr. Battio nnd demanded
of hliu to go to tho storo and open tho
safe.
Ho kuuw it was useless to rcslst.as ho
was completely In tholr power, and ac
ceded to their dotnand. Wliilo ho was
going thero and during tho time ho was
unlocking tho safo, two rovolvers wero
pointed at his head and ono at his heart.
Tho safo was oponed and thoy took thero
from $1,000 In currency, nnd two $20
gold gleces nnd n gold watch and chain.

The closing oxcrclscs of tho First
Winter Term of tho Uloomsburg Slnlo
Normal School, which took place on
Thursday ovcnlng of last week, were,
perhaps, of moro than ordinary excel
lence.
In mentioning thoso which seemed
to us tho most entertaining wo havo no
desiro to bo understood as depreciating
tho good qunllly of tho others, which
together constituted a pleasant ovo
nlng's exhibition. Tho reading of Poo's
Bolls by a number of young ladles and
gentlemen was not only very well dono,
but possessed in itself tlio merit of being
unique. Wo never remember to have
heard this most dllllcitll plcco of poetry
cs--aycd by nny but slnglo readers. It
Is thought to bo a triumph of elocution
lo render It correctly. In view of this
tho result of tho reading by tho class Is
deserving or praiso. Tlio Model School
did finely , tho marching or tho children,
especially, was or n character which
would havo dono credit to "children of
a larger growth." Tho oxcrclscs or tho
very young pupils havo always been a
marked reattiro in thoso exhibitions
and never rail to call forth tho approba
tion of tho audience. Tito Indian Club
manipulations wero well performed,
and tho colloquy oT "tho Bashrul
Lover" and tho tceno from Henry
VIHth wero both excellent.
Takon ns a wholo tho exhibition was
a success and reflects credit nllko upon
tho teachers and thu scholars. Tho
small boy element was largely promi
nent in tho audience, but wero as quiet
ns such an element usually is.so perhaps
thero is nocspoclal eau-o for grumbling.

Wo publish tho follo'wing communi

press no opinion as to tho merits.of the
controversy :
jun. urockway: i noticed pome
nroccediiics In your paper of last week
of a meeting by certain persons, held nt
tho Owon llouso In Berwick, represent
ing themselves as Commissioners or a
stato Jioau, running in Columbia and
Luzorno counties; said meeting setting
forth "that E. L. Koons was illegally
acting as Commissioner when thero was
no vacancy, iC-2."
Ono of tho number present nt the
meeting was Mr. B. F. Ileadloy, who
moved to ssaw Jersey witn ins lamily
In tho Spring ofl871, prior to commenc
ing work on tho State Road, after which
a meeting of Road Commissioners was
had per advisement of M. E. Jackson.
Esq,, Attorney, nnd by virtno of the
powers cotiferred by tho Acts or Assem
bly declared tho scat or said Ileadloy
vacant nnd nppointed E. L. Koons a
commissioner in his place. In Sentem
bor or tho samo year n beginning was
mauo and tno portion oi tlio road in
Columbia county, was completed Juno
30th, 1S72. In October following tho
Commissioners began to open tlio road
on tho Luzorno county sldo and mado
tlio same up to within nbout fifty rods
or completion (November 19th) when
on account of tho severity of the
weather further work was susponded.
During a portion or this timo from
May 80th, 1S71.J. C. Smith was irreg
ularly in attendance, wiuioui in a man
ner assisting, employing no hands, at
tempting to assumo control, oftimes in
variance which well considered plans
ot too otner uommis.iionersj wiion tins
would not bo permitted ho mado It a
point to retard tho work as much as lie
could. Tho general tenor of fault And
ing with "Jerry" that, "his propositions
to mako unnecessary expense to tho
county1' was not listened to, conse
quently ho imagined tlio slights too
grievous to bo borne, sworo vengeance,
"that ho would havo a now organiza
tion of tho board, that ho would, nnd
havo Koons put out ; he's no Commis
sioner anyhow. I, Joroiniah O. Smith,
(bringing his fist down on a stump)
Will show them what I can do," and
left to carry out his threats in holding
tho meeting above mentioned, tho pro
ceedings or which, ho hastened to
Wlikes-Barro nnd thrust thorn under
tho noses or tho Luzorno county Com
missioners, forbidding thoni paying
further bills uoJU they had orders from
him as "General Superintendant of tho

tno uomissioners oi uoiumma county
did when acting under tho protests of
-jerry" at a lormer time, i. e. paid our
accounts In full, on tho 20th day or
Isovembor.
"Jerry," ir you would oust Koons,
tho proper way would bo to test tho
legality of his appointment in tho
Courts. Resolves and publications of
them won't do tho business: ir thoy
did, ho might retnliato by telling tho
tax-payers ot uriarerecK towusnip

"How to s.vvi: Five Millions or
1)ollahs."-A very sensiblocontrlbutor
to tlio columns of tho Oreensburp;,Ve$t
morcliiud coutltyiVpuWcwi and Demo
crat throws out tho followlnp; sugges
tions, which wo comment! to tho careful
perusal of School Directors ntul tho
parents of school children :
In many families thero is n continual
strngRlo to maUo tho most of ovcry
dollar. Kven tho rich tiro not oxctnpt
from thu (oil and calculation of how to
get tho most for ovory dollar paid out.
It Is proposed In this article to inform
tho peoplo how to doublo tho value of
tho niiinoy paid for school purposes:
1. Iliro nono but tlio best to.ichers,
Tho dlllcreuco between tho wages of tt
goon mm a common leaeiier is very
littlo : onlv a few dollars added to tho
wogesof anordinnry tenchorwill procuro
tho services of tlio best teachers. Tho
instructions of n u'ood teacher nro worth
moro than twico thosu given by it poor
teacher.
U. 1'rovldo comfortable, convenient
and Attractive school-houses. Scholars
cannot loarn In old rickety houses whero
thoy aro crowded and kept In Impuro
nir, or whero thoy aro pinched with tho
com. uno nay in u warm nntl eonven
leut houso is worth moro than it wcol
in a houso wiiero tho children's feet ttro
encased in ico. Seo that tho houso is
warm curly in thu morning, that not
oven a part oi me tiny may ou lost irom
coin,
3. Bend tho children tho firat day of
tho term and ever; day of tho term.
Morotlmn half of tho monoy now paid
for schools Is lost bocatiso tho scholnts
nro tardy or absent from school. It is
found by examining tho records that
less than ono-hair or tho children of
school ago attend school nt tho samo
time.
1. Sco that tho children nro punctual
at school ovory dny,both in tho forenoon
nnd in tho nftcrnoon. Every school
suffers from tho tnrdltioss or tho pupils.
f. Provldo tlio chlldron with sultnblo
hooits, ami provldo them thcjlrsl day cf
the term.
0. Often nsk tho children about tho
school, and Bhow thoni thnt you tako nn
interest In tho school.
7. Visit tho school it least oneo a
month. Who would send a coll to bo
trained nnd nover call upon tlio trainer
to sco how ho was succeeding? What
parent thinks so much moro or tho
breaking or ids colls than ho docs or tho
Instruction of his children? What jinrctit
would turn any blooded animal Into a
item lor six moiiins nnu not Know mat
It had plenty to cat and drink? How
many parents kuow whether their
children nt school havo plenty of nour-
isimient ror uio initio ; wneiuer mo
teacher is cnpablo of administering
wholesomoknowlcdgo to thotr children?
8. Always Biicnk woll of tho teacher
In tho presenco of tho scholars. Chlldron
cannot learn, and Will not obey, when
tney daily near tncir teacner evil spoucn
of.
0. Glvo tho chlldron time, nnd sco that
thoy study somo at homo. If thoaliovo
directions nro fnlthrull v followed, ovcry
dollar used for school purposes will be
