Men cannot live by bread alone bvr at least three timo3 in each twentyfour hours the well regulated stomach presents its demands, and if it is to continue a well regulated stomach must be satisfied fortunate enougi with the deft anc dainty touch of wife, mother or si3tei to direct the affairs of the kitchen, are to be congratulated upon this periodical return of the appetite, for it giv» them one of the greatest of the mind pleasures of life, and each meal is, o» should be, the occasion of a brigl.» chatty, chccrful social gathering the family, lit to make the simplest fare delicious.
these demands Those who are to have homes,
But the nomad what of him? What of the man whose bad luck or bad management have made him a bachelor? He can have but one benefactor —the genius who will some day devise the means of compressing the nutritive qualities of a meal into 8 capsule, which one may swallow with a, glass of water and pronounce himself fed.
Speaking with all seriousness, however, the condition of the single man, who has no refuge with relatives, it one of gastronomic misery. Rich or of moderate means, his misfortunes differ only in degree, not at all in kind. If lie livc3 at a "first class" hotel, he has spread before him every day and at every moal an elaborate bill of fare, giving him the choice of scores of dishes—which may or may not be for the asking. Perhaps at first he likes the novelty of so wide a choice but, as the days go on, he finds that it all palls upon him, hopelessly. The secret is in the attempt to do too much, with the consequence of doing it ill, and all t.he dcfects are emphasized by the fact that the hotels are conducted for transient guests, and the "regular boarder" is faced by the same tiresome menu day after day, until the thought of it makes him sick. With all the profusion there is no real variety and the average man does not need more thaE a month to become convinced that al? the viands are cooked in the same dish, and that the veal cutlets, mutton chops and beefsteak are from the same animal.
There is certainly patronage await ng the man who will give his guestt a bill of fare—not a menu—printed in lingliah, not in French, and will serve at each moal a moderate number ol ishes, selected with care and cooked with intelligence, so that each will have its individual character. Follow this with a complete "change of bill" for every meal. Put the money saved by discarding the profusion of dishes into real variety, sought for from day to day with ingenuity and forethought, and there will bo no vacant seats at the table.
The misery of life in the average bo irdiiig house, with its unappetizing Jissoeiations, its niggardly marketing, bad cooking and abundance of hali empty abominations of "side dishes* ranged about one's plate, like coal fiats around an Ohio River steamer the horror of the hot, lly-infested restaurant of the cheaper class—the bad service, bad food, mussy tables—faugh. Twenty-one capsules, please!—Detroit Free Press.

TO CORNER THE WHEAT CROP.
Farmers' Alliance Will Endeavor to Form a Trust.
St. Paul has been made the headquarters of a national movement by tho United Farmers' Alliance of the country to corner the entire wheat crop of the United States. At No. 317 Wabash street, for several days, a large forco of employes has been engaged in seudingout circulars with the view of having not only the Alliance men of the United States but all classes of farmers, keep back their wheat crop until the boars have been killed off and prices have been advanced to a high point. In
other words, the Alliance Press Bureau the Reform Press Bureau and State Press Bureau are working to unite the business of the United States in a gigantic wheal trust, in which the producers shall be the stockholders, and by which the speculators and wheat buyers shall be squeezed tc the wall. At the head of the movement which has its headquarters in St. Paul, is George Mullcr, editor o! the State and a prominent Alliance man. A circular reciting the benefits of combination and urging the formation of the "trust," has been made public. The circular estimates tho wheat crop ol 1891 in tho Udited States at f00,0C0,()QC bushels. The promoters of the farmers1 wheat trust believe that four-fifths of this wheat can be held back by the farmers for from four to eight weeks, by which time it is thought that prices will have gone skyward. ,A
Lists bearing the names of secretaries oi every Alliance in the United States arc now in tho hands of Mr. Muller, and circulars have been sent to the Alliances ol the Eastern wheat-growing States, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, California. Oregon and to a part of the remaining wheat-growing States.
WAR IN MEXICAN MOUNTAINS.
Bloodthirsty Yaqnl Indians Descend on the Village and Carry Oil'Women.
Unknown to the outside world a bloodj war is raging in the mountains of Mexico. Such is the statement of Liberato and Toranto Marcor, young Mexican engineers who are in Chicago. The war is not on? of revolution, but is even greater in destruction, and news of it has hitherk been suppressed, it is said, because oi possible bad effects upon intended immigration. "It has generally been supposed thai with the death of the great leader of th Yaqui Indians, King Cajeme, the Indiai wars in old Mexico had ceased, but sucl is by no means the case," said the .Senoi Marcor. "Thousands of them are stronglj entrenched in the impassable mountain? of northwestern Mexico, and the troops •which are stationed at all tlu towns along the Yaqui river are powerless to reach them or to protect the lives anc property of the citizens. Bauds of fifty oi more of the Yaquis make unexpected daily descents upon the helpless people o' the plain. Fierce battles with the troop follow, but before the latter can accomplish anything the savages escape, to theii mountain hiding-places with ienewn! supplies of food and ammunition, fairlj carrying with them, also, numbers helpless women whose fate is nevei known. It is impossible to reach them, a they are so fortified as to form an entirelj distinct country, and no one knows of tin life they lead, nor is the name of theii new king known. This condition of thing! has been constantly growing more alarming."
THE WORLD'S WHEAT CROP.
A Great Drain to be Made on the Ji|nerl can Product.
Tho London Times of tho 20th summarizes the harvest prospects of the world a follows:
In Russia there is a grave deficit, tin peasantry are starving and there is snial hope of relief. In India there is serious anxiety a famine prevails over a considerable portion of the country. Madras Rajputana and the Punjale are the worst sufferers. There is drought in Bengal and tho need of more rain is urgent. Bombay alone promises a good harvest.
The American harvest will be good ir quality and amount, but with the failun of the Indian and Russian supplies, it if of the utmost importance that the English crop shall not be short. The prosper on the whole Is good. In the chief wheal counties—Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk—th crop is above the average, and in othei counties up to the average. Their harvest will be late, and prices will be high There is therefore a good outlook for tin English farmer to break the long series disastrous years.
A Domestic Tragedy.
She looked as innocent as a babe, says the New York World, and there was a pathetic grace in her expression akin to that of Madonna della Seggiola. but it was nearly 3 o'clock a. m., and she boarded an elevated train, goin uptown, at Thirty-third street
She walked into the last cir as haughtily as a young queen, without ever appearing to notice the halfquizzical, half-contemptuous looks on the faces of the men. She sank wearily into a corner seat and closed her eyes.
A big man sitting beside a World reporter started when he saw her, anc then stared at her so persistently that it was evident that he had known her at some time or another. "Looks as if she had a history, eh?" said the reporter. "She has," he said promptly. Then turning to face the reporter, he continued: "Her history is a sad one. She was married to a man that she did not love when she was only 18 years ol age. She married him to save her father from financial ruin. "Her husband was intensely jealous at her. She loved another man dearly, but she never saw him after th day of her marriage. He used to write to her, however, though not with consent. The husband found one ol these letters, and although there was nothing in it that any one could find fault with, he went out and shot the writer dead. •'The tragedy occurred in Galveston, Texas. The husband was arrested, but his money procured him immunity. When he was freed his wife had disappeared. I knew her well in those days, 188G, but I lost track of her from that time until to-night. I won't lose sight of her again. I will get off when she does, and see if I can not heln her."
A "berdash" was a liarno ancientlv given in England to a sort of nee I dress, and the person who made o: sold such neck dresses was called "berdasher hence the present torn "haberdasher."
RAILROAD WRECKS.
A Disaster in Franc9 by Which Fifty Lives "Were Lost
•t
And More Than a Hundred Injured—Three Killed Near Cincinnati on the •$ C. II. & D.
A Paris cable of the 26th says: A terrible railway accident occurred to-day near the village of Saint Mande, in the department of the Seine. Two excursion trains collided, owing to some error on the part of the driver of one of the trains. Both were loaded with people out for a holiday, The collision was followed by a scene of frightful confusion. Throe carriages were utterly ^demolished, and many persons were crushed and injured in the ruins.
The second train crashed into the preceding train before the latter had left the St. Mande station. The guards' van and tho three rear carriages of the fast train were wreck and caught fire. The injured occupants were shrieking in despair, and the other passengers hurriedly left tho train and assisted in extricating the victims. Soldiers also aided the fire brigade in quenching the fire and rescuing tho passengers. The rescue of the injured was carried on by torch light. Later reports make fifty persons killed instead of simply injured. A dispatch from St. Mande, dated 1 o'clock this morning says that sixty persons were injured and fifteen dead bodies have been thus far recovered, including those of two children that were mangled beyond recognition. Most of tho dead victims are legless, their limbs having been crushed off through the jamming together of the seats.
Fully twenty thousand onlookers are at the scene. Many relatives of tho victims are assembled at the railway station and heart rending scenes arc witnessed as the victims are extricated from the wreck. The driver and fireman of the second train were burned alive. It is reported that the station master has gone mad and decamped.
A late dispatch says that, the search in wreck continues and that thirty bodies have been recovered.
Later—It is now known that forty-nine have been killed and one hundred injured. LATEK.—'Tho latest reports received from St. Mande, near Vincenncs, the scene of the collision between two excursion trains loaded with passengers return" ing from a musical festival at Fontenov, show that, nearly two hundred people were killed, roasted alive or injured by the accident. Forty-three dead bodie9 have been taken out, and six people died after being extricated from the ruins. One hundred and four badly injured are lying at the hospital. The details of accident now being received show that tho collision was a most terrible affair. Tho engine of one of the excursion trains telescoped three carriages loaded wsthexcursionisis and at the same time the reservoir of gas on tho damaged train exploded and set fire to the wreckage, while scores of people were pinioned down, wounded and helpless beneath the ruins. In a very short time the flames spx-ead to such an extent that numbers of the wounded were slowly roasted to death before the eyes of those who were doing their utmost to rescue them, The horrible shrieks of the burning people and the criesof desperation and terror uttered by the survivors who were engaged in the work of rescue continued almost without interruption for half an hour after the collision. Many of the unfortunate people imprisoned beneath the wreck of the railroad cars were drowned, while partly roasted, by the firemen who were summoned to the scene. Forty minutes elapsed before the firemen were able to obtain water, but when they did so they poured torrents upon the wreck, and seemed to be utterly unaware of the fact that they were drowning the people they were atlempting to rescue.

OX TUB C. H. D.
A frightful wreck occured on night of the 25t.h at Middletown, Ohio on the C. II. & U. An excursion train returning to Cincinnati stopped at Middletown to make repairs. A freight train following crashed into the rear coaches, killing three porsons outright and injuring forty others, several of whom will die. The scene following the accident was as follows:
The excursion train was pulling out on to the main track, and all but the two hind coaches had left tho siding when the mogui engine, with the heavy train behind it, went plowing through. The two rear cars and their human freight were
hurled into the ditch, and the next coach
was struck vairly in theend, and the locomotive, pushing under, elevated it to an angle of forty-five degrees. There it stood, filled with shrieking people. This car caught fire, but engineer Schwind and his iireman were able to extinguish the blaze by use of hose from tho locomotive. Two cars lay crushed in the ditch with a mass of maimed and mangled people moaning in agony, pleading for help. The rescurers set at work at once to extricate them. Legs, arms, and heads could be seen through broken windows, or pinned under the wreck. Moans of the helpless sufferers and the moans of tho dying, mingled with the frantic cries of mothers, seeking husbands and children. Many had been cut by glass and timbers in the rush to escape and bloody faces and hands bore testimony to the great number who were injured.
