Paris Report Says Prisoner is

CONFERENCE HELD TODAY

Manila, March % -Aguinaldo.
the leader of the Filipino insurrec-
ton and commander-in-chief of
the insurgent forces, had long
conference this afternoon with n
number of former Filipino officers
who are now staunch supporters
of the American cause. They
were summoned to Aguinaldo's
headquarters at his request These
leaders urged Aguinaldo to cast
his lot with the Americans and
swear allegiance to the government,
and aid in restoring to the Philip
pine islands that great prosperity
which prevailed prior to the in
surrection and war against Spain
began six years ago.
Later this afternoon Aguinaldo
had a conference with General
Macarthur, the result.of which is
not known. 1t is expected be will
soon announce his future inten-
tions in reference to the insurrec-
ton.
LATER The leading Filipinos,
among them being two who held
conference with Aguinaldo today,
in conversation state they have
every reason to believe that Agui-
naldo will, within the next few
days, issue a proclamation as com
mander in chief of the Filipino
army, calling npou his people to
lay down their arms and submit to
American sovereignty.

East Indian Red Fish.

Many Of the big Broadway stores
now offer jars and cans Of East In
dian red fish, says the New Zork
Evening Post. 1t is supposed to be an
appetizer and thirst producer, and
has long been a favorite tonic for hon
vivants at home and abroad. There
are several varieties, the Macassar fish
looks something like anchovies or an
chovy paste. The perfume is much
more pungent and the taste stronger
even to rankness. The secret Of tie
manufacture was kept for many years,
but leaked out not long ago. The fish
are salted, treated with oil, and then
stained with beetlc-nut. 1t is the lat.
ter which gives them their intense ed
color. They are used upon toast as a
bonne boucle at the beginning Of .
dinner.
Eastern cooks employ them as the
basis of a salad, and also as IN ingre-
dicnt for omelets. The latter dish is
highly praised by many lovers of good
living, but to the unframed palate Is
altogether too fishy for pleasure.

ence-Put Brightness in Your Work
Christian Self-Assertiveness.
In little, humble cottage,
BY the ocean wide and wild,
On bleak and lonely island,
Lived q mother and her child.
Sometimes life seemed poor and meagr
To this mothers heart so true,
And ofttimes she felt yearning
For some greater work to do.
Yet she watched, and prayed, and la
bored
For her loved and only son,
Faithfully each task performing,
Fill her earthly race was run.
And her prayers were not unanswered,
Neither was her toll for naught,
For the lad became bishop,
And his life with good was fraught.
Many souls he cheered and frightened
As the way of life be trod;
Many, through his earnest labors,
Sought and found his mothers God.
Oh, the lesson, sweet and helpful,
That should come to you and me,
From the story of that mother
In her home beside the sea!
Eow it tells us to be faithful
Let no doubts or fears intrude,
For the Master, wise, unerrng,
Knoweth what is for our good.
That the niche in which He placed US
Is the one we best can fill;
Though another seem more fitting,
We should trust His wisdom still.
Tenderly our lives are guarded,
For our Lord is ever near;
Ere we call Him, He will answer,
While yet speaking, he will hear.

Sage green is most popular in the

confused with Wedgewood, as it is
not English at all, and in contradic-

A new shape, low, shallow and de-
cidedly graceful is observed among
the newest finger bowls. The new

Others, inlaid with gold are quite
attractive too, and still others show
delicately tinted green or rose color.

Among the latest showings Of Rock
wood, just returned from the Paris
Exposition, a nasturtium and chrys-
anthemum pattern are particularly
striking. A Tipped pitcher design not
unlike an Oriental water-bottle In
shape, is most graceful among the
shapes.
With pottery Of all nations one is be.
wildered to keep track Of each style.
The Dutch is possibly the most famil-
lar. Now the Swedish Is making its
way into popular favor. The effects,
colorings and designs are quite char
acteristc and just what one would
suppose would come from that north
ern land.
Lacquered metal, for instance, brass
candlesticks lacquered to make them
easy to care for, is disdained by ar
tistic house furnishers. The duller
the brass the better liked, only never
tarnished.
Cut glass handles with silver blades,
while still seen, are not nearly so new
or favored as a season or two ago.
A quaint jug-like shape is feature
Of many of the latest pitchers. This
effect is largely produced by the size
and shape of the handles.
So-called Pompeiian copper and
bronze bowls are fashions latest fancy
for flower holders. Their. odd shapes
are modelled after the antique.
The majority of the newest and
smartest pieces Of cut glass are 30
much lower than the shapes formerly
used as almost to seem squatty. This
is particularly noticeable in the much
shortened stems Of goblets, compete

New WashinStno.

"The new Washington" says an
English writer in the London Specta-
tor, sis clean and beautiful. 1t is
doubtful whether any such delightful
residential street as Massachusetts
avenue is to be found on the globe.
American domestic architecture is as
successful as public architecture is
expensive and octen bad, but in these
Washington avenues it is carried to
the height OF comfort and beauty.
The green, well watered. fehceless
lawns, the grouping OF gables and
oriels, the pretty porches and exquisite
trees and flowers combine to give a
most delightful series Of pictures.
There is not the ostentation of New
