Conscience Works Slowly.

Portland, Ore.-An additional con.
tribution to the conscience fund was re
corded when John Caples, a Forest
Grove merchant. received a remittance
of two dollars from a man living in a
small town in Washington In payment
of a grocery bill contracted 80 years
ago.
At that time Mr.. Capies was con.
Quoting a grocery store in the town
from which the money was received.
He sold the man a dollars worth OF
goods, but never received the money,
and when he came to Oregon several
years ago charged the account against
that OF profit and loss.
In his conscience-stricken state the
deliquent creditor RENTED double the
amount OF the original debt, explaining
that he desired to make amends for
the delay.

his countrymen, the investments that
turned out ruinously for him and dis
astrously for the people who trusted
him. His victims were not only the
peasant depositors in the bank, but
also several exporting and manufac-
turing firms in which he was interest
ed and individuals who advanced him
large sums of money. Even King
Frederik VIII. is said to have been AL
berti's creditor to the amount of $780,
900.
AS a politician Albert became prom
inent about 1892. He was a reformer
and leader who, despite his treach-
cry In business, was a legislator of
value to the nation. 1t is generally ad-
mitted that in his early political ca
reer he meant well for Denmark and
few criticisms of this part of his
career are heard. But his later bust
ness life was subjected to close scru-
tiny by his political enemies and this
led to his expose.
King Christian, who died in Janu-
airy, 1906, trusted Albert implicitly.
His son, the present king, continued
to have faith in the banker-minister
of justice. Last June, when the lead
ers of the Social Democrats fiercely
assailed Albert, King Frederik re-
fused to believe that his trusted min
lister could have done anything wrong
and bestowed fresh honors on him.
From Germany, Norway and Greece.
also, Albert received honors In the
form Of decorations.
In appearance Albert in his pros
perity was handsome and dignified
possessing an air of authority and
ability that made for him many ad-
mirers and supporters. An indefati-
gable worker, he had the faculty of in
spring others to work hard also, and
up to the last was calm and apparent
ly undisturbed by the indignation he
had reused.
Albert has been twice married. His
first wife was divorced from him and
is married to the Danish tenor, Peter
Cornelius, who is considered one OF
the greatest living singers of Wagner
operas. The second wife of Albert

Four Missing Men Sought by Priest

ct STEPHENS Catholic church of
y Brooklyn will lose $4,000 unless
Rev. John G. Fitzgerald, pastor of st.
Stephens, can learn the present resi-
dence of four former parishioners, or
show by indisputable evidence that
they are dead. For four years the
priest has searched diligently for
some clew to their movements during
that time, but his efforts have not
met with success.
Seventeen years ago the four men
now being sought we're selected, with
six others, as subjects for life insur-
ance policies in which st. Stephen
church was to be named as the bene-
ficiary. They were M. s. Troy, j. M.
White. s. p. Gibbons and c. G.. Brown.
All were young men, in the best of
health, and the insurance company
was glad to accept them at low rate
of insurance.
Policies on the 20-year payment
plan were taken out on the ten young
men. The policy holders were not ex-
pected to pay any part of the pre-
miums, but all agreed not to leave the
parish without informing the pastor of
the church and the insurance company
of any change of residence.
Father Fitzgerald became pastor OF
st. Stephens four years ago. Before
that he was curate of the parish.
Seven years ago the first attempt was
made to find the four policy holders. II
was not, however, until 1904, when
Father Fitzgerald became the head of
the parish, that the search became
systematic. Not knowing whether the
four were living or dead the church
continued to pay the premiums on the
policies.
The amount needed TO meet pay
ment on the life insurance of the miss
Ing men is about $4,000 year. which

NOVELTIES FOR DAINTY LUNCH.
Welcome Refreshment at the End OF
Gard Games.

In these days of a table or two OF
bridge as a form of entertainment,
hostesses are interested In inexpen'
sive novelties for refreshments.
What to serve depends largely on
the customs of the city and the time
of the party. During the hot weather
the morning has been the favorite
hour. Play lasts from ten o'clock un'
til 1880, when a cold lunch is served
on the card tables or in the shaded
dining room.
This might consist OF halves OF
canteloupe, with a few blackberries In
each piece; jellied gumbo in cups;
boned chicken or Virginia ham, car
rots and peas in aspic, tiny French
rolls, iced coffee, whole tomatoes
stuffed with chopped green peppers,
and olives covered with mayonnaise;
peach or blackberry sherbet with va
nilla waters.
Such a menu can easily be prepared
the day before at the cost of but few
dollars.
II lunch seems too much trouble,
iced coffee, tiny bacon or cheese sand
witches, cake and candy are passed a
little before noon, so the guests may
get home to lunch.
With these light refreshments dain-
tiness should make up for variety. In
vest in a set OF card cake cutters,
which consist of four pieces to repre-
sent the aces of spades, clubs, hearts
and diamonds. These can be used to
shape both the sandwiches and cakes.
Bake a rich cup cake in thick layers
In an oblong pan to save waste in
cutting. Ice the clubs and spades in
a fudge icing and the other two shapes
in boiled white icing colored red
with currant strip or few drops of
cochineal.
Serve the iced coffee in tall, thin
glasses half filled with cracked Ice
and with whipped cream on the top.
Russian tea or ginger ale may be sub
stituted for the coffee.
Instead of the sandwiches, crack
ers, buttered, covered with Parmesan
cheese and red pepper and toasted in
the oven may be used.
The candies can be made at home,
either fudge or white grapes, seeded
and covered with cream fondant.

LARGE HATS STILL WORN.
Tendency Now Is to Have the Trim.
ming Rather Flat.

Despite predictions to the contrary,
the large hattie very large hats
still fashionable, but the tendency
this season is to have the trimming
rather fiat, except in the case of the
dressy plumed hats designed for aft
ernoon and evening wear. Some of
the smartest hats shown by the i'm.
porters are quite severe in trimming,
but the lines of these hats are so
good that they are generally most be-
coming. One particularly smart shape
which would be excellent for street
wear with tailor gown, is shown
this season. The brim of this hat is
very large, rolled slightly at the left
and down a little at the right side of
the back. The crown is low, but very
large, and is wider at the base than
at the top, which is rounded in mound
shape. Corded silk with rather a
large rib, in any desired color, is
used for the top of the hat, the I'M
derbrim being faced with black MORE
silk. The shape was shown trimmed
in two ways, one style which was es.
pecially smart for young girls having
only a twist of wide black MORE rib
bon around the crown, with a large
bow at the left side of the back, the
pointed ends of which were allowed
to fall a little over the edge of the
brim. The other style of trimming
was little more elaborate, as it con-
sisted OF a large gourah feather in
quill shape with a stiff rib in the cen.

TELLS OF CONDITIONS
IN ISLAND Of FORMOsA

SAN FRANCISCO, March 19.-Hor-
ace T. Tompkins, a tea shipper of Dali
totei, Island of Formosa, arrived at
the st. Francis Monday on his way
back to the Orient, having made a
business trip to this country, via the
Suez canal. He says that Formosa,
since the japanese possession of the
island, has attracted to it only about
$4,000 Japanese; that the soldiers
there are Chinese under Japanese Of
ficers; that there are about 1900, 200
Chinese owning and occupying the
lands on the eastern part of the island,
and about 10000 untamable, cannfbal-
istic savages holding undisputed sway
on the whole western side.
The Chinese in the country are now
all japanese citizens by virtue of the
japanese possession, but there is no
apparent friction between the races.
The Chinese are largely engaged in
growing rice on the lowlands and tea
on the mountain slopes. One particu-
lar brand of tea, of a very rare and
peculiar variety, is grown at a high
altitude, and of the small crop of about
500 pounds prepared annually the ex-
port goes to just four cities-San Fran
cisco, Chicago, New York and London.
This tea, reputed to be the choicest in
the world, is worth many dollars
pound.
