Tosi 'e Facts About the at the Dally Life of. the, Republican Leader, that the other day a man with an itch for public’ office called on Col. Dan Burns at his office inthe Crocker building in San Francisco, and asked for his influence. . . “Did you ever run a plow ?” asked Mr., Burns, “No, »” “Know how to milk, drive a team or. om _“Ever clerk in a store ?” “Yes, a little.” “Then stick to that. If you can earn $50 a month in a commercial house it is better than $150-a month iv public office, where every -one of your old associates will consider you fair game for plucking, where the demands fot subscriptions, big and little, good, bad and will find that your money is not your own unless you expect to be turned out at the close of your first term of service,” Mr. Drury goes on to say that the Colonel has the best paying mining property in Mexico, and probably in the world, for even the Klondike has developed no rival to the Candelaria ledge, which he is working, and which is yielding gold and silver bullion by the carload. His affluence affords an opportunity for Colonel Burns to indulge bis tastes in different ways; yet his manner of life remains very much the same as it was when he was in _____ moderate circumstances, He isa man of regular habits. He takes the average amount of sleep, getting to bed almost always before midnight and is at his business office every morning at 9 o’clock, where he reads his letters, goes over the day’s plans with his secretaries, and then is ready for whatever the current of events may present. He has no inclination to gain a reputation as a “Cham pagne Charley,” and though he is master of the gentle art of “setting them ap for the boys,” his own tipple is confined to mineral water with a slight dash of lemon juice. He hus not taken a drop of*liquor of auy kind for four years. In his private life Mr: Burns is most happy, the tendency of his tastes being decidedly domestic. Though a member of uearly every fraternal organization extant, he seldom attends.any lodge meeting. A member of ‘the leading clubs he scarcely enters a club once a year. His evening are spent at home with his wife and eighteen year old daughter, who are frequently joined by intimate friends of the family, or atthe theatre, for which he has a great liking. Mr. and Mrs. Burns care little for the lighter forms of amusement so much in vogue in fashionable society. They live plainly, baving no French dinners and the like. In one direction Mr: Burns indulges bimself to excess—he smokes all the time he is awake, It is logical to assume that there must be something unusual in the personality of a man who is sent for to come and take up the reins of government ina party that has no dearth of able leaders. A less conspicuous general would lose’ the continuity of his command; buat Colonel Daniel M, Burns fears no hiatus in his rule, If such a thing were posible. he would simply retire and leave the disorganized elements to the fate in which lack of discipline would inevitably overwhelm them. fo be sure, Mr. Burns is well known to the leading statesmen of the coun” try, and the fact that he is an/exceedingly busy man in the management of his own affuirs in the. bredthing spells between political campaigns alone accounts for the fact that he is not personally acquainted with every voter in the State, for vo man is more easily approached. If there is one thing more than aaother in which Mr. Burns takes pride it is that he is true to his friends. He has often said that he is slow to promise, but that once his word is passed, be it in.a horse trade, a mining deal or a politieal—transaction,;-the~ interested parties may go bome and go to bed'. with the calm assurduce that he will carry out his part of the contract to the very letter.. For those who fail to fulfill an agreement he has only scorn and indifference, for he never knows them more. While Mr. Burns oneniy announces that loyalty to his friends is the most sacred religion of his heart, .yet he is seldom carried away with excessive anger against an enemy. In an open contest his most telling efforts will be given to defeat his opponent, but once ube battle is ended all antagonisms are forgotten. In petty personal animosities he takes no share, Hot Weather Food. Nothing could be better than the delicions pickled pigs’ feet. and tripe sold, at the Beehive. They are the choicest selected goods.

The Robin Hoods of this city punt Cost. of ‘Chnleast + Cas "aie mat to Thole Real Value.Sallie Joy White in the “Wonian’s Home Companion” gives this practical advice to inexperienced cooks, and a young married man of this city has handed it in. for publication: “The finest roasts and steaks are found in 4 é . the hind quarter; as well as the juiciest meats for making beef tea, meat pies, beef a la mode or potted beef. Sirloin, of course, gives the very choicest roasts and steaks; next comes the ramp, this being-cutin three parts. The back, the middle and. the face are good roasting -pieces,-but the most economical. is the . middle cut, as it is free from bone and steaks “are cut from the top of the round; some people go so far as to say thatthe flavor-of a round steak is superior to that of any other. The lower portion of the round is used. ue braizing and for beef tea. : “The tenderloin has the most tender meat, but it is neither so jaicy nor so well flavored as other portions that are not so tender, and it is not nearly so nutritious as .portions. that «require much cooking. The sirloin comes next in tenderness and delicacy.. These cost more than any other cuts, but there is less nutritive value than is found in the cheaper parts. Indeed, the cost of the meat seems to be in inverse ratio to its real food value. Of course this is 80 because of: the much smaller proportion of the so-called choicer cuts. ‘It is-one of the wise economies of nature that it should be so. The harder‘working class of people, those who do a great deal of manual labor, and particularly those whose occupation takes them a great deal into the. open. air, need the nourishment and’ sustaining quality of the heavier meats. And these are fotind in the chéaper parts; particularly-where there is a great deal of juice in the meat and rich marrow in the bone. .° : “Stews and braised meats, or those that are steamed: in their own juices over the fire;'as pot-boiled or roasted meats, give the most: nutriment, and add the physical strength that is needed, ‘besides, in cold weather, supplying a great deal of warmth ‘by furnishing carbon for the body.” ; —_—— GRASS VALLEY NBWS.
