$4o,ooo,ooo BOND ISSUE.
Half of ''Pennsy" Securities Will Be
Taken in Europe.

PHILADELPHIA. April 22.-Capital
needs of the Pennsylvania railroad for
this wear have been successfully financed.
Announcement came yesterday that the
company had arranged to place an issue
of $40, 900 600 of new bonds. and that half
of these will be taken in Europe. Last
year the Pennsylvania did no important
financing, the general money markets be-
ing such that big borrowings were impos-
sible except at prohibitive rates.
Official confirmation Of the present
financing by the Pennsylvania railroad
was withheld yesterday, doubtless wait
meeting of the board of directors today,
after which a formal statement is ex-
pected.
From what was learned, the $4O.OOO,OOJ
bond issue is at per cent interest, runs
for long term Of years and was sold
to net the company 96 per cent of the par
of the bonds. These terms are consid-
cred good under all the circumstances.
and the general view is that the sale OF
so large an issue of new securities In
dicates the much better attitude OF f1nan-
cial interests toward corporation loans.
According to the announcement, the
bonds are to be a first mortgage on the
New York tunnel terminal system, and
will be issued by the Pennsylvania Tun-
mel and Terminal Railroad Company and
guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company Another explanation was that
they will be a direct obligation of the
corporation issued under an old existing
consolidated mortgage.
Great interest surrounded todays regu-
lar meeting of the directors because OF
the report. but when the meeting ad-
journed it was announced that the board
had transacted ''only routine business. .
While it is generally understood that new
bonds will be issued. none Of the directors
or high officials Of the company will dis
cuss the subject.
The directors Of the Pennsylvania COM
pany and those Of the Pan Handle also
met today. The board of the latter COM
pany reorganized for the year by re-
electing all the old officers.

Chief Wilkie of the secret service de-

except when there was q violation of
federal statutes.
There was no statement made said

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Washing Black Lace.

Black lace should not be washed IN
ltss 1t is decidedly dirty, but should
be well shaken to remove as much
dust as possible and then dipped in
solution Of deep blue gum water.
When the lace has become dirty and
brownish in color the best plan is to
wash it in soapsuds and then rinse
and stiffen 1t in deep blue water, to
which the gum water has been added.
The deep blue water will help to re
store the lace to its original black.
The lace should be all rolled In an
old cloth for short time and then
pinned out with the cloth between 1t
and the sheet, as 1t imparts blue
stain, which it would be necessary to
remove from the sheet
When the lace Is quite dry remove
the pins and place piece of tissue pa
per over it. Iron it with the paper
between it and the iron If the iron is
placed directly on the lace it will leave
gloss on it which is not pretty and
which stamps 1t as washed lace"

Print paper and all kinds Of

Timber that cannot be used for

Death Calls Young Son,


The following clipping taken
from the Santa Rosa, Caif. Demo.
crat, tells of the bereavment which
recently befell Mr.. and Mrs. Rufus
Hawley, formerly of this city.
Grangeville friends, and there are
a host of them, will sorrow with
the parents of the bright little fel-
low.
"Anoth' happy home has been
bereft of its idol, and the grief of
fond parents inconsolable, for it is
their first born and their only child
that has been taken.
At 8 minutes past three O'Clock
Wednesday afternoon at the family
home on Fifth street, little Melville
Hawley, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Rufus
w. Hawley, died after brief,
extremely critical illness, following
an operation performed last Sun
day morning. Cerebral meningitis
was the cause of death.
He was a bright lovable little
fellow, the sunshine of his home,
and the hope of devoted parents,
whose life radiated in his. Always
full of fun he made everyone about
him happy. He was born in this
city eight years and two and one
half months ago. For several
months the child had not been in
the best OF health, and had under
gone several operations on account
of a growth of bone that blocked
the air passage of one nostril. On
Sunday a specialist came from San
Francisco to perform the last oper-
alton in conjunction with the
family physician. Soon after the
boy rallied from the chloroform it
was not thought that his condition
was unusually serious, but later
the dreaded cerebral meningitis
asserted itself. Wednesday morn
ing it was realized that he could
not recover, and finally at five
minutes past three, the Friend of
little children called him to Him
self in that home where there is no
more pain and sickness and where
all is JOY. In their overwhelming
sorrow Mr.. and Mrs. Hawley and
the other members of their family
have the sincerest sympathy of the
entire community. Little Melville
was the dearly loved grandson of
Mrs. Shearer and of the late DIR.
M. M. Shearer, and nephew of
William p. Shearer, Mrs. Ed J.
Caldwell and Miss Omega Shearer.

For lnfIamed Eyelids.

Anything concerning the eyes should
never be neglected, and as soon as the
eyelids become inflamed the following
lotion should be used: Two drains of
glycerin and borax are beaten with
the white Of one egg.
One wlneglassful of cold water IS
added, and the mixture is beaten
again. This should be applied to the
edges Of the lids nightly. When all
soreness and inflammation have passed
away (and this will soon be the ease,
as the preparation is healing) the lids
may be touched nightly with white of
egg beaten with three times the guam
tity Of cold water.
This must be freshly made each
night. The preparation is astringent
and should be applied as a film only
and with the finger tips. In case any
unpleasant tightness from accidental
overuse should appear 1t may be rem
edied by bathing in cold water.
