and asked him if he did not know
that in July, 1909, before the new tariff
law went into effect, lemons sold for

The witness replied that he did not
recall that lemons were pretty hlgh

ferred.
Mr.. Sonnehill also attributed the IN

Mr.. Roosevelt spoke enthusiastically
about his hunting trip, but he ac-
knoWledged that he was trifle home
sick and not sorry to return to civil
ization. The party secured an enor-
nous bag of game in the Sud- district,
where, arrivals said, they had not been
troubled at all by mosquitoes, which
are unually an almost unbearab.e pest.
The bag included nine white rhino-
ceros, which are exceptionally rare and
three giant Glands.
The Glands were such magnificent
specimens that the colonel expressed
greater plasure at securing them
than at any other trophies.
Colonel Roosevelt was much inter
ested in the Uganda missions and
spoke in high terms of the Lado en-
clave which he visited. A trip to the
Soudan mines, planned for today, was
postponed.

WOMEN TAKE LESSON IN
THRIFT FROM FRENCH WIFE
Chicago Society Matrons Take Lead

Wastefulnesa


CHICAGO, Mar. 14-(SpeciaD-
Women of social and club life in Chi
cago have taken seriously to the study
other foreign countries where famous
cookery has been developed by the
wholesome hatred of waste that is
characteristic among rich and poor.
To the solving Of prevailing high
prices they are marshaling new stand
ards, upsetting false pride against
prudent marketing and blazing the
way for a great American reform in
household economics.
This will be the subject discussed
at special meetings of the Chicago Wo-
mans club, the Alliance Francois and
other organizations. The same subject,
What do you use instead of porter
house steaks at these awful prices?''
which is discussed with so much ami
nation in sewing circle and literary
club meetings the country over is up
permost also with women of society
life in Chicago. For their solution
they have turned to the foreign house

table dishes so little used in America.
ut is upon these principles of house
hold management that the famous
French cookery is based" said Mrs.
Hobart Chatfeld- Taylor who has lived
many years abroad Even the poor
French families are accustomed to sit
down every day to meals that may
justly be called artistic. That is be-
cause the housewives know how to uti-
lie materials from which our house
keepers would not consider it possible
to prepare a delicate meal. They have
reduced domestic catering to a science,
which is just what our women are be-
ing encouraged to learn by this COM
petition"
"The French housekeepers waste alb
solutely nothing. That is the secret
of their economy" said Mrs. Charles
Henrotin.
"There is no garbage collection in
Paris, because there is no kitchen re-
fuse. The pot au feu is always on the
back of the stove and everything that
is not used goes into that. When the
the last vestige Of nutriment has been
distracted from bones they burn them
for lime to feed the canaries. They

William Burke, a st. Louis plumb
ing contractor, recited the loss Of So
600 on a prize fight in New Orleans,
in which Harry Forbes, who lost to
Attell at Troy, N. Y, ten days ago,
was his fighter. Forbes was in the
courtroom. Burke wore a large dia-
mond stud in his cravat and several
diamond rings. He identified May
brays as one Of the "millionaires" and
identified letters that passed between
himself and some of the defendants.
On cross-examination Burke said:
81 went down there to spend ~
money and to make myself agreeable.
We all bought a round of drinks and
there was plenty of good feeling.
'It looked crooked to me, but have
been taking chances all my life and

saying, Judge, that will cost you five
cents and amt going to take any
more of your money. You ride and
4 will walk up. You can trust me-"
The judge took the youngster at his
word The boy was back at the court
house in due time. Since then, the
youth has made good" The judge
recited several instances similar and
each had its pathetic side.
The speaker said the mother or faith
er was to blame in many instances He
maintains that a mother or father
must set the example and if they fail
to take an interest in their children
the child will nine times out of ten
turn out to be a criminal or delin-
quent.
After he had concluded Judge Thos.
H Brents, who presided, introduced
Prosecuting Attorney Everett j. Smith
who made a few pointed remarks. At
torney Smith dealt with local condi-
tons only He said there were num-
Der of delinquents in this city who are
never reported to the officers and said
it was the duty of every woman and
man IN The city To assume lIidI res
possibility. The speaker made the
startling statement that Walla Walla
was not troubled SO much with de-
linquent boys as girls. He said it was
almost impossible for a man to find a
delinquent girl, but woman could,
and it was the woman's duty to report
each and every one. He told of one or
two experiences he has had since in
office and how out of the Is boys he
has had dealings with only four have
been sent to the reform school while
the others are all on the road to sue
cess.
Prosecuting Attorney Smith paid a
high tribute to the state reform school
and said the boys certainly were hand
led in the correct manner in the state
institution. He told of one boy who
refused to come home, requesting that
he be allowed to remain and complete
his education.
At the opening of the meeting Chair
man Judge B1ents made few remarks
which were timely and well chosen.

Tightening Credit

NEW YORK, March 1.-THE tight
ening Of the worlds credit facilities
is the feature of the present financial
situation and that factor underlays
the constraint on the days stock mar

CRITICAL influences also played part.
Here in New York the banks are be-
ing drawn upon to supply require
ments of the interior for currency
with the opening of the spring plant
ing period. This morning brought
fresh offerings Of bonds by bankers
who had made purchases of new is
sues from the railroads with addi-
tional employment of banking funds
implied in these operations. : Not
withstanding the purchase of parts of
these new bond issues by foreigners,
demands for remittances abroad are
said to have turned rates of foreign
exchange upward again. Time money
rates are rising in New York and
banks are less eager bidders for mer-
camille at recently prevailing rates.

subject of an interesting address made
before a session of the "Know Your

Commercial club rooms by Judge A.

court. The speaker declared that
where one boy i'll 20 was saved from
the stigma OF prison bars and turned
in the right direction the result more
than justified the effort and expense.
He closed his eloquent talk appealing
to che people of Walla Walla to elect

HAMILTON MAKES TWO GOOD
FLIGHTS BEFORE BIG CROWD

SEATTLE, Mar. 14.-Charies K.
Hamilton, sore and stiff as a result
of his mishap Saturday afternoon
when his Curtiss biplane turned tur-
tie and threw him into a deep pond,
made two short flights at the Meadows
this afternoon On the first flight the
steering apparatus was improperly
adjusted and Hamilton narrowly es-
capped repeating Saturdays unpleasant
performance. The aeroplane was slow
in rising and after he had circled the
track once at a height of 200 feet he
started to descend. The machine came
down rapidly and for a moment it
to be diving straight into
the pond. 1t barely cleared the water
landing in a muddy field. Hamilton
had some adjustments made and pre-
pered for his second flight.
This time the machine rose grace
fully, and the aviator circled the
track two and a half times. He was
in the air nearly five minutes and made
splendid landing. The successful
flight brought forth loud applause
from the spectators who rejoiced with
Hamilton that he was able to give
the promised exhibition.
Their joy was short lived, though.
for when he attempted a third flight
the engine baked and the aeroplane
would not move. The crowd, which
numbered more than 5000 people, wait
ed two hours while mechanics worked
with the motor. At last they succeed
ed in getting it to go, but when Ham
ilton again attempted a flight the ma
chine merely ran along the ground
for a distance of 200 yards but it
would not rise in the air.
There was little complaint from the
spectators.

Wheat Rules With
Strength all Day

CHCAGO, Mar. 14.-Wheat ruled
strong today under the stimulus of re-
newed crop damage reports and good
demand. Bulls controlled the market
prices losing none of the opening firm
ness. Much Of the trading was in de-
ferred months and good demand for
the September option was in evidence,
quotations for that month travelling
from $1.04 5-8 to $105 IL. July was
also a favorite with the buyers and
went up from SLOT '1-2 to $1.08 Is.
while May climbed from $113 ga to
$114 3-8 The close was strong in
all the futures at near the high point,
with May 5-Sc up and July and Sep
temter 1c higher.
Absence of offerings in any volume
was the principal feature of trading in
corn and kept prices strong. The
c ;ose was strong with May Use higher.
The strength of other grains helped
cats. May closed near the high point,
1-2c higher.
In provisions new high records for
many years were reached. May pork
closed at 80 1-2c above Saturday, lard
15c ur and ribs 10c higher.
