STRIKE HAS BECOME
EKDURANCECONTEST
i San Francisco.— Quiet prevails In
the strike situation over the Harriman
lines on the coajt, after a week which
has been chgr/ctsrized here by lack
of the usual disorders and riots be
tween strikers and strikebreakers.
Beyond a few flat tights there has
been no trouble.
On the coast the strike has Settled
down into an endurance contest, with
the strikers calm, and appearances
greatly against the railroad. Engines
are known to be going dead in large
numbers la various «oast divisions.
Portland.—The railroad strike on
the Harrim an railroad lines reveals no
sign of weakening In either of the bel
ligerent camps. The officials of the
railroad companies are doing every
thing in their power to Ignore the fact
that a strike Is on, but each day th©
condition of the rolling stock and'mo
tive power of the roads becomes
more impaired until, bo the strikers
believe, it can be only a comparative
ly abort time until the officials will
have to not only recognize but con
cede the strikers’ demands.

oto ,
. HOW TO USE C0C0ANUT3.
There A rt Various Dellolous Ways ef
Serving Thom.
The sight of the big brown cocoa-
nuts lu the fru it stalls recalls many
delightful ways of using them. Al
though the desiccated kind sold In
packages has its uses, It la often sold
whpn stale, and one cannot be as sure
of It as of the fresh nut.
.- When selecting a cocoanut choose
one in which the “milk” cun be beurd
when It' Is shaken. Tuuch o(>eu tbe
small spots at the end of the out to
let out this liquid and then break it
open with a liumuyer. Tlie thin rind
after hreaklug the shell away from
the m eat can l»e peeled off neatly with
a French cook’s knife.
A cocoanut can he grated in quan
tity a t hevae'and dried wttbHsngar. It
will keep fresh a long time and will
not lose its delicate flavor. Grate the
white meat on a platter and sprinkle
w ith tbe sugar. Place it In tbe oven
with tho door open so that it w ill dry
slowly. The heating closet under the
oven has been used in thia way to ad
vantage. The smallest cutter of the
meat grinddr may sometimes be used
instead of the grater, and if it can it
w ill save much time and patience.
Some choppers cut tbe cocoanut into
tiny lumi>s, which are not attractive.
About one cupful and a half of grated
cocoanut coo he obtained from one
nut rather under medium else. Fresh
cocoanut grated In this way is also
nice if slightly browned, but if a gas
range Is lx?lng used care must be ta k
en not to place the cocoanut too near
the flames, as it catches Are easily J
Custards, bonbons and other sweets
are Improved by a sprinkling of this
browned cocoanut. ,
Grated cocoanut may take the place
of meringue on a pie. and some pup
ates will like it better. A few flakes
should be folded through the Alling,,
nnd the covering should be delicately
browned. Apple tarts treated In this
way are very attractive.
F ill the
bnkeC'SbellB of puff paste with apple
sauce? sprinkle liberally with snowy
cocoanut nud put tbe tarts into the
oven for five or ten minutes or until
the filling has thickeued and tbe co-
connut is n delicate brown.
Fresh grated cocoanut may l>e used
to advnutuge with strawlwrries In va
rious dc.sacrts nnd other sweets. A
cocoanut blancmange, for example, Is
delicious if each plateful is served
with a large spoonful of very ripe
mellow berries.
No two flavorings combine so well
as orange and cocoanut. Sliced sweet
orange^ are often sprinkled with co-
coauut nnd served ns a dessert fo r a
supper. Sliced bananas may be served
In place of tbe sliced oranges and cov
ered with a snowy coating of sweet
