BISHOP PRAISES
TACOMA CATHOLICS

Immediately after high mass yes
terday, 172 candidates were con-
f1rmed at st. Leo's church by Rt.
Rev. Bishop 70. j. O'Dea of Seattle.
In the afternoon the bishop went to
Puyallup, where class of So was
confirmed.
Among this large number were
many adults whose confirmation had
been neglected in youth, and there
were also some who had become con-
verts to the Catholic faith. In speak
ing of this unusually large number
of conflrmants. Bishop O'Dea said:
THE number of candidates at
Father Hylebos' church was source
of qualification to me and / was
surprised to find so many in Puy-
allup. When 1t Is considered that
those people have had resident
priest but short time, So Is a large
number. Much praise is due the
priests and members of the Catholic
churches in this section for their zeal
in church work."

USED HIS SECRET TO SECURE
HIS RELEASE FROM PRISON

Des Moines safe deposit vault and
the inventor carried the only key to
the cell.
Entreaties on the part of his fell
low stockholders failed to give them
the secret of his process and then the
courts were resorted to without re-
suit.
1t was only four years later, and
through the influence of wealthy
men who saw an opportunity TO
amass millions by Dawsons process,
that the inventor secured his liberty.
Then new company was organized
under the laws of New Jersey, with
a capital of S20,000,0O0. The no.
toriety obtained by reason of the at
tempt to force from Dawson his Sc
cret had interested the steel men of
the country in the Damascus process.
For two years now the steel has
been made at plant purchased in
New Brighton, Pa, and although the
product surpasses any other in the
world. it has now been discovered
that steel of the same uniformity
cannot be made in large quantities.
The process has been sold and the
$2,O00,000 corporation was dissolved
July IL at New Brighton.
Dawson still believes in the practi-
cability of his invention, but the
Des Moines hackers of the company
refuse to put up any more money on
the scheme.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1904-07-25

and a romantic story is woven about
the effort to revolutionize the steel
industry of the world.
Dawson was a poor mechanic,
when he discovered what was claimed
to be the lost secret of Damascus
steel He did manufacture a num-
Der of articles which for flexibillty,
durability and general utility rivaled
the Damascus product. His friends
believed in his genius and small
company was organized which manu-
featured the steel on a small scale.
Just at this juncture on a Christ
mas eve Dawson murdered his SON
in-law, Walter Scott. He had mar
ried Dawson's daughter the week be-
fore in opposition to the fathers
wishes Dawson was sent to prison
for eight years, and carried the Sc
cret of Damascus steel with him.
The formula had been deposited in

PORTLAND, July 25.-The Tail
enders made it three straight vic
tories by capturing yesterdays game
from the Tigers. Fishers men have
slumped to the extent of II points in

found the Bengals 20 points to the
good.
Yesterdays game was an thinning
affair, with Thielman pitted against

the ninth, when one run was chalked
up for each. The tenth was an even

John w. Strope of Stevens Point,
who has been in this city for several
weeks painting D. j. Coles residence
in the fourth ward, has taken the
contract OF painting the new brewery.
He commenced on his new job the
past week. While at work painting

with, his right hand upon the first
round and his left hand upon the
second round, and while in this posi-
ton workmen at the top Of the
building who were in the act OF
lowering two inch plank II feet
long and a foot wide, slipped out OF
the ropes aud fell endwise over so
feet below and just missed Mr.. Stropes
head striking his left hand on second
round and tearing off every round
upon the ladder below to the ground,
and Embedding itself about six inches
in the ground. His left hand was
badly bruised and would have been
cut off had the round in the ladder
not given way. The plank came sc
close to Mr.. Stropes head that ii
knocked off the cap he wore. Th ose
whoSaW the accident say that Mr..
Strope was only about one inch from
sure death. His friends are glad OF
his escape.

DR.. AND MRS. O. T. HOU-
GEN GIVE A DINNER

Cards were received by few of DR..
and Mrs. Hougen's friends for O'Clock
dinner. upon Thursday evening Sept.
p, 1904. Upon arriving the guests
were ushered in by Master Leslie and
Miss Helen Hougen: the DR.. and Mrs.
HOugen assisted by Miss Mary DAILY
and Miss Jessie Stetzer, we're waiting
to receive them. This was the first
time many OF the guests had been
into the Doctors house since its re-
modelling, they found the house not
only decked with flowers, but very
much improved in every way, the
library and dining room in particular
being panelled in oak. When every
guest had arrived they were invited
TO the dining room, very charming
| decorated in red and white. For a
few minutes everyone was busy con-
versing with his neighbor. but finally
one of the guests called the attention
of those present to the fact. that this
was the doctors birthday. The
doctor received congratulations. and
readily admitted to twenty-one. He
said, ''he hoped to live TO see forty and
that bis wish for every guest was that
they might see forty-twO, and many
years after" Upon inquiring how
| he had spent the day, he assured US
he had arose early, and the roast duck
| which we saw before US, he had
| Single-handed and alone-Secured that
morning, also the cranberry jelly
which went with it, he had gathered
from his marsh; the vegetables he as
sured us he had gathered all with his
own hand from his farm, while
apples, peaches, pine apples and
grapes, be asked US to believe were
entirely from his own orchard. Upon
some one inquiring if it had not been
busy day. He said, mot at all, why
between times l brewed that punch
that it might have the right blend,
and froze the ices, that they might be
perfect-withOut the least effort-oh
one can do wonders at twenty-one."
Naturally his gentlemen guests
we're put upon their mettle, and
many were the tales of prowcss as a
| cook, an entertainer, hunter, a
fisher, poured forth. After coffee and
several good after dinner speeches,
the company adjourned to the sitting
room. They found tables prepared
for whist" and after merry even
ing it was found that Mrs. G. f..
Kellogg had been most fortunate and
secured the most games, she received
dainty china remembrance, while
Mr.. Lynch who had "honors" for the
gentlemen received an appropriate
bit Of sta tuary.
The guests then departed most re.
luctantly, as the DR.. and Mrs. Hougen
are famed as the most hospitable OF
hosts and hostesscs and every moment
spent beneath their roof is one to be
enjoyed to the utmost.
| Those present were: MessrS. and
Mesdames G. f. Kellogg, Muir, Lynch.

every way. There were about two
hundred present and pleasant time

ladies have ever given. The net

repaid the ladies for their hard work
We hope that in the near future they
will give another one of their good
suppers.
