It is probable that the case will not bo

The defendants, who are well known
In the ltcllevtie section of the city, ure
charged with robbing four stores In

first place the burglars attempted to

goods.
A candy store of Mrs. I,. O. Hlldnor,
on Susquehanna avenue, was looted, as
wus also the gecnral store of J. Freed,

stole cigars and whiskey. They nlso
attempted to loot th" store nf Michnel

The burglars then started for this
place, and were captured by the police

TWO NEW DAMAGE SUITS.
City nti d Seranton Traction Company
Are the Dcl'cudunts.
A damage suit against the city has
developed out of the West Lackawan
na avenue injunction proceedings. Last
week, it will be remembered, court on
the petition of a number of the resi
dents of that thoroughfare, directed
the citv engineer and the contractors
w ho were engaged In paving it not to
decrease It3 width, ns they contemplat
ed, but open It to its full width, thirty
feet. In following out this mandate,
it is allowed that the city has encroach
ed on the property of 13. M. Clarke., of
Clarke Bros., and he wants SlO.Hrj
damages for thu encroachment. Mr.
Clarke contends that the city must
either narrow the sidewalk two feet
or take part of the area way which
permits the lighting and ventilation
of the cellar of his store and that In
either event he will be damaged to the
extent above indicated. His attorneys
are Watson, Diehl & Hall.
Nathan Vidaver and John P. Kelly,
representing Nathan Shiffmun. yester
day instituted a damage suit for $,5tl0
against the Seranton Traction com
pany. Shiftman Is a peddler. Some
time last winter while drivinp through
Taylor, he alleges, a Tracm company
car ran into his wagon damaging bis
turnout und stock in trade to the
amount above noted.
PADDED CELL IS NEEDED.
Mayor Will Recommend That Conn
cils Place One in Police Station.
Mayor Bailey will, In n letter to
councils tonlsht urge that provis
provislons be made for a padded ei II
in the central police station. The need
of it has been apparent for sometime,
but the mayor's suggestion lias been
hurried nlons by the havoc wrought
during the last few days by an In
sane prisoner who wrecked the plumb
ing nnd every movable object. Iron and
otherwise, that his cell contained.
The absence of a padded ceil has been
commented upon by police olliclals from
other cities, who, while complimenting
the station's general eQulumout, have
boon led to wonder why such an Im
portant thing as a padded compart-
inont bus been overlooked. I'nruly,
violent, dcteiioos or insiiue prisoners
urv at present controled by handcuf
llins them to a bar of Hit cnge door.
A stream of cold water from a hose
played upon a risoner's head is an
effective method ot subduing what the
police call a "crazy drunk."
Tile handcuMing method is one which
the iinliee do n,t like to use in in
sane cases lis tile subject becomes ex
hausted ftotii Ion"; rlutidin& and pos
sibly lacerates tho wrists ant anus.
In th" case of drunken persons no ImhI
ily evil results, th" persons u-uially
pleading in a maudlin way to bo re
leased and proiniidns good behavior.
With the addition of u padd m1 cell
the prison part of the central station
will be very completely equipped. It
now has a bath and women's cells in a
ro.. in separated from the cells for
iiiah s.

of delight in the close, when selections
from such penis as "Cavalier Kusti

"Krnilnio," "Tar and Tartar" ami "II

o
The legitimate stage has gained what
the vaudeville stage has lest in the be
coming a comedy star of Maggie Cline.
A new play was written especially for
her by Clay .M. tlrcene and Hen Teal,
and those well-known play-writers
bullded a most Interesting dramatic
story about th" personality of Maggie
Cline. and made her the heroine of u
comedy of our own time, that is called
"On Hroadwny," which will be seen ut
the Frothingliam Saturday riighi. It
bus pictutes of life as It cslsts in nil
uttarters and In every section of society
in the large cities, which are marvels
of realism. These scenes include a
mansion on Lexington avenue, exterior
of thf Tombs, the arrival of the Ulaolc
Maria, foot of Thirty-sixth street and
F.ast Kiver, Lower l.rondvvuy. with the
cable cats moving to and fro. and u
line reproduction of a down town sky
scraper ami its sensational collapse.
The story deals with life in New York
City, and the title is given from the fact
that most of the scenes arc laid In and
about that greut thoroughfare.
Pete r.aJter. at 10. 20 and 110 cents is
remarkable. The lending Herman dia
lect comedian of this country present
ing his famous play at those prices Is
a novelty to say the least, but the pub
lic sustain the wisdom of the move
ment by Hocking to see this attraction,
Mr. Halter is surrounded by a clever
company and sins with all the sweet
ness of former years: his humor is
ilia In t. rellncd und very contagious
and "Chris and lc-tia," as handsomely
dressed and superbly staged as of yore.
He will open at Divis's theater this af
ternoon lor a three days' engagement.
At the Academy of Music next Aloii-
lav t vtniio! a grand scenic production

the tragedv. John liritlith is a young
actor who believes that ":vvhat is worth
doing is worth doing well," and he has
spared no pains or expense to excel all
previous attetiiols at mounting this
tragic Idyl. In Ids individual per
formance of the crooked-back tyrant
Mr. iirillith lias displayed great daring
ami in a measure broken down the bar
riers of tradition, giving an original
conception of the character, and intro
du.'inic some new ami startling ideas
In the way of "business."
m
W. J. Lawrence, on English writer In
the Magazine of Art. deprecates the
custom of using scenery from scene fac
tories of St. LouiJ, Chicago, Kansas and
elsewhere. He says that these scene
shops at a product of the rank com
mercialism of America." and that they
"have debused the artistic currency of
tin country by choking up the minor
phiy-hoiiies with mechanically pro
duced work of a crudely conventional
order, bearing no more resemblance to
the genuine article than a chromo-lltho-graph
does to an oil painting. It is by
no means tin uncommon thing for an
order for a scene, say thirty feet square,
to be received by telegraph In the
t.oirning, and the whole, nainted, dried
and put on rail before nightfall! i. nie
wonder that the factory artist works
slap-dash fashion In full body colors,
recking nothing of the art of glazing
or second painting."
SEWER WORK TO BEGIN.
t onucil-t Will Approve Some UiiN
mill Open Dthers Tomorrow.
Properly owners who have heard that
councils would move so slowly that sev
eral much-needed sewers would not be
constructed this year, will derive seme
comfort from the fact that s-lerl coun
cil will meet in special session for gen
eial business tonight, and that the
common branch will hold a staled meet
in!.!. Hids now before committee will be ap
proved and awards made of the con
tracts Involvird. while bids on other
contracts will be opened, and perhaps
considered forthwith. The present pur
pose of counci's is to rush through all
sewer projects and let the new paving
projects go over until spring.

HOW TO COOK RICE.
From the Sun.
Perhaps the most important anil pro
fitable cereal to ihe housewife Is clean,
white, wholesome, and easily digested
rice. In whatever form rice may be
nerved It muUes un attractive und
dainty dish, nnd Is welcomed as heart
ily by the robust. St hoolboy us It is by
the delicate invalid. When properly
cooked tlee should be snowy while,
liuiled until it Is mealy ami dry ami
every trrain separate. A Southern deal
er in i he cereal says that to get the
best results rice must tirst be Well
washed, rubbing ihe grains between Ihe
hands to remove the llotirv eouting.
which is liable to hold the grains to
gether when the rice Is cooked. Have
u deep vessel two-thirds full of Water,
which has been salted ami is boiling,
put In Hie washed nnd drnlned rice
gradually so as not to stop the boiling,
let it cook undisturbed twenty minutes.
Then place n cvlandor In a saucepan
and turn the rice into it. cover the
colander and let the pan remain by the
lire. This serves a double purpose, al
lowing IN? rice to drain and also to
Ileum. Euch grain should then be
swollen lo Its largest proportion and
dry "like unto a llrst-class ineulv po
tato." Three things are to be remembered
in cooking rice in this manner: tirst,
have the water boiling; second, the
rice to be undisturbed during the boil
ing process, so thut the grains tuny not
bo broken, and, finally, have it thor
oughly drained. Rice cooked In this
manner is served with roasted meats
for a vegetable, and also forms the
foundation for u multitude for tooth
some dishes.
Jn Japan, where rice is so much used,
a put with a close-fitting cover is kept
for cooking it in, and only just water
enough is used to prevent the rice from
sticking to the pot. Cover, nnd keep
over a moderate lire, and steam until
neatly done, then remove the cover so
that steam and moisture are able to
escape, and rack.
The mode of cooking rice in India to
use as a vegetable with meats is thus:
Take half a pound of washed rice and
boil it in one quart of milk until tender,
chop one clove of garlic line, add It to
the cooked rice with one tablespoon ful
of onions, one tenspoonful of parsley
and three of green pepper, all lincly
ediopped, two tablespoonfuls of Parme
san cheese, two beaten eggs, and a
small cup of milk. Thoroughly mix
these ingredients with the lice before
turning the whole into a buttered bak
ing dish, put some bits of butter over
the top, place the dish in the oven, and
bake until the top is a nice rich brown.
Another manner of boiling rice when
desired for a breakfast cereal or for
plain boiled rice for u dessert lo be eat
en with a sauce i r cream and sugar is
as follows: V.'ash one cup of rice and
put it into a saucepan or kettle that
has a tightly titled cover; add one cup
of milk, two cups of water, nnd a salt
spoonful of salt. Cover the vessel and
put at the side of the fire, where the
l Ice cannot burn, but will simmer until
it Is tender ami all the liquid has been
absorbed by the rice. This is richer
o nd more nourishing than when cooked
with water alone. When raisins are d -s-died
with boiled lire add a cupful Pi
the rice when preparing It to put over
the fire.
Baked p ee. If not convenient to
have the room on the top of the stove
for boiling rice, then try baking it. Put
one small cup of washed rice with, one
qunrt of milk, half a teaspconful of salt,
a dish of pepper, and a little chopped
parsley, if it is ilked. Butter a pud
ding dish and put in the the and milk,
drop n few bits of butter ovt r the milk
and place the dish in a slow oven and
bake two hours. If it browns too fast
cover the dish until Hourly done. Serve
very hot with a meat course.
Parched rice makes u change, and Is
excellent with broiled meats. I'se Hoc
that has been boiled In water and well
drnlned: turn onto a platter, and when
odd separate the grains carefully with
a fork. Place a spider over the tire and
put in enough butler wlv n melted t
cover the bottom of the dish. When
the butter becomes hot put In a little
of the rice at u time ami cook it a deli
cate brown, tossisng it lightly with a
fork so not to break the g-.vilns. Drain
on brown napef at the mouth of the
oven. Heap the prepared lice In the
centre of a small platter nnd snrlnnle
a little chopped pnivky over the top.
Coral lice is also nice with meats.
Have one and one-half cups of noi l:,
one cup of stewed and strained toma
toes, nnd the same amount of washer,
rice: put these ingredients to,; llicv in
a saucirinn, cover, and let tlvm cook
thirty minutes: then remov tiie cover
nnd ulnce the pan at the la.r.k of tlio
tire and allow the inolstuiv to escape
fur twenty minutes. Thin rice, h'-aped
in a mound In the middle ol a hot phil
ter and broiled chops plie.-l nrooul it,
forms an attractive-looking dish. Or
the rice may be moulded for a bord-r
and warmed-over meats put In the
cent r-.'.
Rice balls are excellent with fr'ed
chicken. To make them stir Into cold
boiled rice a Utile melted butler and
some milk until you have a thieit paste;
add some salt and u little chopped
pursley: blend together with u beii.'ii
egg. Hull these into balls in hoi fat.
Place them around the edge of the
(latter on which the chicken has been
arranged, and uliernale each hall with
u slice of ctlsp bacon.
A nice uccoi'ipaidmcnt for masted or
bridled chicken is rice prepared as
follows: Hell ihe l," in ins in milk an I
water until lender, then turn into it
biscuit pan v. hi. h has been wet in cold
v.nter: smooth the rl.e mixture over
the top. and put lo one side lo become
cold. When colli out il into squares
and roll ihem in egg and then in
crumbs ami fry them in butter a nice
brown on one side and turn and brown
on Hi" oilier side. Arrange the pieces
upon a platter nnd put a teaspooiiful of
currant jelly upon each.
!ticr- puddl'.igii have been known for
ag. s. but some of the following may
be a litt'e different from the old rule:
To make meringue rice pudding: Boil
one cu;i of rice in one quart of milk
until il is lender, remove from Ihe lire,
and rittr in the yolks of ihree eggs that
have been previously beaten: add sugar
to suit ihe taste, u pinch of sail, the
crated t-i tul of one lemon ami u little
of the juice: turn this into a buttered
pudding dish: make a inerintrue of the
whites of the eggs by boating Ihem stitt
and add to them four lablespoonfuls
of suirarand the remaining Juice of the
l-'iiion. Put the nierineue riiugldv over
the rice mixture and brown it lightly
in the oven. This pudding muv be
served warm or fold. Stirring the yolks
of Ihe eggs into the hot rice cooks
them sutliciently.
An excellent dessert is rice omelet.
Mix one tttblespoonful of butter with
one of Hour ami cook them over the
fire until smooth; then stir In two
thirds of a c up of milk and set one side
until cold before adding half il cup of
boiled rice and the beaa yolks of four
eggs. The last thing stir in lightly
tile beaten whites of the eggs ami turn
the mixture into a but tired dish. Stand
the dish in a pan of hot water and
bake fifteen minutes. This omelet must
be served as soon as it is taken from
the oven. Serve with a sauce made by
bealing the whites of three eggs stiff;
add to them one cup of powdered
sugar, ami just before sending to the
table stir in the Juice two oranges and
hulf a lemon.
A dainty and delicious dessert is
called "jelly of snow." which Is made
of i ice. and when properly prepared re
sembles a mound of snow, and thus It
receives Its name. Wash thoroughly
four tablespoonfuls of rice und place in
u double boiler with two quarts of boil
ing water; cook slowly, without stir
ring, until the rice is tender; drain off
what water remains, and each grain
should be found separated and whole;
set one side to cool. Soak one-quarter
or a box of gelatine In water enough to
cover it for an hour, then pour over It a
half pint of boiling water and add one
cup of powdered sugar. Stutid the dish
containing- the gelatine mixture in a
pan of boiling water and stir unlil the
gelatine und sugar are entirely dis
solved. Then turn the mixture into the
cooked rite and thoroughlv mix. Whip
one pint of cream until It Is light and
dry: stir the whipped cream as lightly
ns possible with tho cold rice and gela
tine. Flavor with maraschino or sherry
and pour the mixture Into a mould that
has been wet in cold water. Stand tho
mould in the lee box until Its contents
become thoroughly cold ami set. When
ready to serve turn the moulded rice out
on n flat pretty dish and pour preserved
strawberries or marasi hino cherries
around it.
For a fruit timliale of rice, wash six
ounces of rice and put in a saucepan
with u.taldesMootii'nl of butter, u salt
spoonful of salt und one quart of milk:
add two ounces of blanched almonds
thai have been pounded, and i k slow
ly, without stilling, until the rbe is
tender und the milk absorbed. Take
from the lire and udd to the cooked rice
one dusseti seeded raisins, two rolled
macaroons, twelve candled cherries cut
In halves, a little candied orange peel
cut into shreds, a snoonful of sherry,
and the yolke of three eggs. Line a
plain mould or deep basin with rich pie
crust, then stir ito the rice mixture
the beuteti whites of two eggs, und
turn the whole Into the lined mould nnd
bake in a moderate oven about half an
hour. Turn the timliale out on a dish,
und serve with rich cream or a boiled
custard flavored with wine. This makes
a rich ami nice dessert for a company
luncheon.
