Tacoma Bowler Now Ahead.
The coast cocked-hat record was
broken - Monday evening at the Tacoma
Athletic Club, and the honor of holding
the highest score now belongs to RiddelL
That gentleman bowled 87, one point
more than the former record held by A.
B. Croasuian, of the Multnomah club.
The ecore was made in contest, and nine
Gtroight strikes were made by Riddell
from the opening of the game. This ia
a phenomenal score, and that it may
stand for some time is not doubted. It
will have only the effect of making Port
land's bowling cracks break their backs
trying to come up with it. Conditions
laust be about perfect to shoot a ball
with exactly the same precision nine

SPECTACLE AT WESTMINSTER.
House of Lords During; the Hearing
. of an Appeal.
The house of lords presents a very
quaint appearance during1 the hearing
of the important trada union appeal,
Allen vs. Food, ia vhich for iha first
time in 17 years the judg-os of tie high
court have been summoned to gi. c i.heir
opinion and advice. Eight of their
lordships, in full-bottomed vvig-s and
their robc3 of satin, almost sitting-upon
each other'3 laps, are seated, at a small
table, between the lord chancellor and
the narrow space reserved for the bar,
on two settees in Ehape resembling- the
Woolsack. Theirrr.ouths arc closed,
and the most loquacious of them may
not so much as put a question to th.e
learned counsel e "Ch1 ia tlic case,
while the law lort's. seated in plain
clothea hi the barons' benches behind
them, are keeping- up a running- fire of
critical comment. There is no prevision,
for the usual voluminous note-taking
and at most th.cy cizchang-e a few re
marks in undertones cmor.g" themselves.
To the judiv-ial mir.d, nccustcmed to be
supreme within its own domain, it must
be something of a trial to play second
fiddle, cr, rather, to play no fiddle at
all, but merely to be called in to say
whether the strings are'in tune.
At the conclusion cf the arguments
their lordships will be invited to ex
press their cpinicn upon the points
submitted to them, but they have no
effective order or voice in the matter.
The judges suir.moced to attend are
Justices Hawkins, Mathcw. Cave, Wills.
Grantham, Lawrance, Write and Mr.
Justice North, of the chancery division,
Who would hcrdly be recognized in his
ecarlet and ermine by the practitioners
and litigants in his sober suited court.
There are nine law lords present, in
cluding the lord chancellor of Great
Britain and Ireland, an unequal number,
in order to insure a majority on one side
or the other. The other morning the
bishop of Manchester in his robes,
looking like the proverbial fish out of
water, occupied a seat during the hear
ing behind his lay brethren. Ushers in.
somber black, with rosettes and silk
stockings, flit noiselessly to and fro at
the bidding of the lord chancellor. As
it is not perhaps generally known that
any member of the public has a right to
enter the house of lords when it is sit
ting as a court of justice, the spectators
are few. Westminster Gazette.
Row to Serve Potntoea.
Old potatoes boiled whole;, peeled and
covered with e. sauce made by cooking
together half a pint of milk, a table
spoonful of butter and one of flour, are
better thus prepared than when served
in any other fashion. New potatoes are
waxy until late in the season, and
should not be given to children or to
persons of delicate digestion. -The old
fashioned saying that, new potatoes
should never be eaten before the Fourth
of July contains a certain amount of
common sense, although the rule ap
plies to home-grown potatoes and not
to those that come to our markets from
the far south. There are certain veg
etables which depend little upon the
variety of cooking to be palatable. Of
these are green peas, string beans, as
paragus and a few besides. These, if
boiled until tender and dressed simply
with butter, salt and a little pepper, are
too good to be improved by any change.
Eut there are others that can 'be cooked
in a variety of ways, and each will be
found acceptable. St. Louis Republic.

say enough for its merits' Dr. King's
