Goodies for Chrta
fruit C'ulio to nolitrlit 'jm lliilrurc.
For fruit oako onough to"do the
inilv anv reasonable family for
hnstmaa and Now Ynar'a Day theso
hings are iiQcessary: I wo pounds
currant? three pounds raieinB one
pound citron one pound candied
orange and lomon peel one pound
fig3 one pound almonds two pounds
flour olio pound butter two pounds
of tho darkest brown sugar you cau
get eighteen cugs ono ounce ground
cloves ono ounce ground cinnamon
ono ou:cc allspice two nutmegs
grated one fourth tint of brandy.
Preparo tho fruit the day before
This simple command is apt to
"stump" tho oxperimonter so this is
how it's done. First of all tumble the
currants into a panful of tepid water
stir them around a bit and life out
with the hands letting the water
drain off them as you do. llopcat
this two or three times then spread
them on a clcau tea towel as coarso a
ono aa you havo roll them up in it
and rub them well to dry them and
to get the little stoms oil. Tho stems
will Bticlc to tho towol and tho uso of
two or threo towels in this way will
make tho ourrauts porfeotly clcau.
Spread them on a plattor and sot
aside until the morrow.
Stone the raisins. This is made
easy by letting thorn stand in nearly
boiling water for a minuto. A small
sharp knife a touoh of butter on tho
fingers or olso a bowl of warm water
to dip them in and tho seeds arc
easily removed. Tear them in h ilf
as you seed them.
Shred the oitrou quito fino and cut
up the figs in small bits.
Chop tho orango and lemon peel
very small.
Blanch tho almonds and cut them
in quarters. Thoy aro blanched
pouring boiling water over them lDy
ting them stand in it a few niinu et-
and then popping them out of ttcB
skins. hoir
The raisins orango peel citron and
almonds should be pressed down in
a dish and the brandy poured over
thorn then closely cover with a plate.
Tho next day whon tho mixing and
tho baking aro tu be done set the flour
on tho oven to brown and as it
browns remove- that dark onough
and sot tho rest baok until all is a light
brown.
Thoroughly rub together the but-
ter and sugar with a woodon spoon
until orcamy. Separate tho yolks and
whites of tho eggs beat the yolks
until light and add to tho sugar and
butter. Then add half the
flour next the spices stir-
ring well after each addition. Sift
tho other half of the flour over tho
fruit and add that putting the figs
and almonds in first so that thoy will
bo well distributed then tho citron
chopped peel raisins and currants
alternately a handful of each at a
time and stirring industriously bo-
tween handfuls.
Beat tho whites of the eggs to a
light not a stiff lroth and add last.
A good idoa is to save out two or
three spoonfuls of the battor beforo
tho fruit goes in to spread over tho
cakes after thoy aro in tho pans in
order to oover tho fruit and prevent it
burning.
Heavy pans that turn out a oako
with u hole in tho imddlo or oarthon
baking dishes aro good to bako them
Tho oven must do just hot enough
to turn a piceo of manilla paper palo
brown in a minuto. It requires three
hours to bako a fruit cake thorough-
ly and the oven must be a
"slow" ono of oven tempera-
ture. After three hours opon tho
doors and lcavo the cakos in the oven
for half or threo quarters of an hour
longer to coo'c.
Now for tha crowning touoh. About
a week or five days before yeu aro
eoipg to out tho oakes got a quart
hottlo of champagne domestio does
very well. Punoturo tho cakes with a
knitting needle or larding nocdlo
through and throngh in ovory direo-
tion and pour the wino over them
turning them in it until thoy drink up
ovory drop. Set them away again un-
til tho day beforo cutting whon thoy
can bo ioed if desired.

To the Waco Evening News:
Tho writer has just returned from a
trip to Oklahoma .territory and was
out in tho oo un try among tho iarmers
in tho vioinity of Purcell whioh is
just across tho Cinadiau rivor in tho
Chickasaw Nation on the Gulf Color-
ado and Santa Fo railroad and the
principal trading point for that part of
Ukiauoma.
Every quarter seotion is oooupied
and the greater part of it in cultiva-
tion. Tho lands aro rich and thoy
made fine crops of cotton and corn
and other things. Claims aro chang-
ing hands at 8000 for relinquish-
ment. There are somo lands yet open to
settlement in tho Pottowattomio coun-
try whioh was oponed about tho same
time as the Sao and Fox reservation
and peoplo aro puring in to tako them
up but thoy "must pay tho United
States government not less than $1.25
per aere to reimburse the amount paid
the Indians.
Tho Chcrokeo strip of over GC00-
000 acres lying north of Oklahoma
Territory and up to tho Kansas lino
has been agreed between tho Cherokees
and the commissions appointod by
tho United States to be sottl to tho
government for over $8 000000 or
$1.42$- per aoro and only awaits the
confirmation of congress to perfect
this sale.
The writer was down through the
Choctaw Nation from Fort Smith to
Paris a few weeks ago. Thoy havo
agreod to sell 3000000 acres lying
west of Oklahoma Territory and now
temporarily occupied bv Ohoyonns and
Arrapahoes for $3000000 and this
h to wise awaits tho confirmation of
congress. In tho event ot these lands
being thrown open tho settlers will
doubtless havo to refund tho govern-
ment tho purchase monoy as well as
reside upon and oultivato the lands
fivo years as in tho oaso of tho Sacs
and Fox and Pottowattomio lands
but as long as a man can got a cltiim
worth $2000 for $300 ho is not losing
anything especially as the $200 is
not to bo paid till the end of fivo years
and then by tho man who takes after
him.
It looks hara to bo paying a tri-
bute of millions to Indians but the
government can not get a site for a
puhlio building in Waco or any other

The trip to Purcoll and back wis

leading into Oklahoma from Toxas and
the south and southeast. Tho road
bed equipments and management of
this road is of tho very best trains
run on timo with ovcry possiblo com-
fort and aro crowded. Our railroads
aro tho great arterios of oomniorco and
the inevitable attendants of civiliza-
tion. Wo can not do without them.
Wo need inoro of them. Anything
like hostile sentiment or hostile legis-
lation should be avoided and tho ap-
pointment of your railroad commis-
sioners by your governor looks very
much liko placing at tho dictation of
