Seattle, Nov. 1.-THE Methodist
board of foreign missions went into
executive session at 9 o'clock this
morning at the Plymouth Congre-
gational church to discuss important
matters of appropriation for mis-
sions scattered throughout the world.
An amount equal to last years
appropriation of $1,032,456 can be
expended this year, as there will be
no new call for missionaries this
year and as last years call for 100
is still in force.
There will be no large increase in
the expenditures in the foreign mis-
sion field.

One substantial reason for requir-

present time, from the business por-
ton of the city where poultry is fed
on refuse from "meat markets and
restaurants is that they cause rats to
congregate in large numbers there,
and rats are one of the most potent
factors in the spreading Of bubonic
plague.
This article is misleading in another

Milton, Ore, Nov. 11.-At an early
hour yesterday morning, the residence
of Mrs. ]. P. Hays was totally destroy

and was not discovered soon enough
to keep 1t from spreading to other
parts of the house, the flames soon
coming out at the roof.
The loss to the building alone
reached over $500, and much Of the
furniture was ruined. There was no
insurance. Mrs. Hays is a widow
and has five children dependent upon
her. Her husband died few years

raised.

Follies Are Numerous.
But the enumeration OF his follies
is by no means concluded. Boni IS
fond Of entertaining. Most OF the en-

hunter is limited to shooting at re

was a mere incident.
