DAD, COME HOME; BABY'S
POlSONED!-LIFE SAVED
Little Girl Wrests Drug from Sis
ter; Phones for Aid

SANTA MONICA, Dec. 2.-That
Ferol Wallace, aged 5 years, saved the
life OF her little sister Constance, aged
8 years, is the opinion of their father,
Capt ]. c. Wallace of the Santa Mon
lea fire department.
During a shopping tour of the
mother and NAhile the father was at
the engine house the younger child
obtained a phial containing a poison
Gus drug and ate several of the tab
let's before her sister discovered what
she had done. Ferol had been taught
by her parents that the skull and cross
bones indicated poison, and she at
once took the phial away from the
baby and called to her father by tee-
phone:
Dad, come home Bays poisoned
The father hastened home, but
when he arrived the baby was show
ing signs of illness. Heroic work
saved the life of the youngster.

Leaders Fear Responsibility of
Representative Institutions
May Be ImperiIed
BALF0UR SEES CHAMBERLAIN
BirreII, Chief Secretary for Ire
land, Recognizes Possibility
of Universal Suffrage
ASSOCIATED Press)

LONDON, Dec. 2.-The few days of
discussion in the general election cam
paign leaves it clear the Liberals, as
q party, will have none of a referen-
dunn on tariff reform.
The Liberal leaders, from Premier
Asquith down, in their public speeches
since the pronouncement of Mr.. Bal
four, the opposition leader, of4fis will
ingness to leave tariff reform to a
referendum, have frankly deprecated
the referendum as being unsuited to
Great Britain, and as tending to de-
stroy the responsibility of representa-
tive institutions.
Meantime, however, further familiar
ity with the idea has had the effect of
uniting the whole Unionist party and
press in its favor, and Mr.. BalTour 8
courage in adopting it is hailed as
having secured for his party an excel
lent prospect of victory.
1t is a curious fact that at the time
of the rupture of the recent veto con-
ference, an inspired statement in the
Times asserted that both sides to the
conference had rejected the referen-
dunn.
CHAMBERLAIN Is CONSULTED
If that be the case, Mr.. Balfour's s
decision must have been an after
thought, and it is asserted in we'll in
formed quarters that he first consulted
Joseph Chamberlain and obtained his
acquiescence in the proceeding to
shelve temporarily tariff reform by
urging recourse to the referendum.
Campaigning was again in full blast
tonight. Mr. Balfour, in a speech at
Grimsby, said no = Irishman would
thank the people for an Independent
Irish parliament unless it were "ac-
companied by British subsidy"
Sir Edward Gray, the foreign min
lister, said in a speech at Berwick:
1.-THE greater measure of revolution
is necessary to save the house of COM
mons from perishing by the congestion
of business, and to save it's reputation
as an imperial authority. There is
nothing in John Redmond's home rule
proposals which is not in full force in
the Canadian provinces"
Mr. Birrell, chief secretary for Ire
land, criticising the referendum pro-
posal in a speech at Bristol, said it
would have to be accompanied by uni
versal suffrage. There were other
questions, Mr.. Birrell said, besides the
tariff and home rule. Were the Tories,
he asked prepared to submit to a ref
erendum the questions of the navy and
armN expenditure, consumption, capital
punishment, the naturalization of rail-
roads and the budget?

South CaroIinan Visits Washing

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-"Retire?"
exclaimed Senator Tillman, repeating
an inquiry II shall not retire until
they bury me; have no idea of quit
ting the game"
The South Carolina senator who ar
rived here today, was in his committee
room at the capitol and appeared to- be
as vigorous as he was before he was
stricken by severe illness during the
last session of congress.
Mr.. Tillman expects to remain here
four or five days only. however He
will return to his home next week, but
counts on coming back to washington
early in January when he says the real
business of the session will begin. He
said today that he felt in good condi-
tion for work. but that he would not
apply himself so assiduously as for
merly.
Mrs. Tillman was by his side. and
she emphasized the last remark by de-
claring she would keep him as quiet as
possible.
Senator Tillman attributes his resto-
ration to health to the fact that since
he got out of bed he has been givi g

ing the 1910 Population
Up to 504,131
TOTAL GROWTH CO. l PER CENT
Commonwealth Entitled to Three
More Congressman as Re-
suit of Enumeration
Especial to The Hcrald)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.--The popu-
lation of California is 2.377,549, ac-
cording to statistics of the thirteenth
census made public today. This is an
increase of S92, 1876, or SOL per cent over
1,45S,O53 in 1900. The increase from
1890 to 1900 was 1863 or % 9 per cent
The populations of the counties con-
tanning the principal cities are: Ala
media, 246,131; Los Angeles. 504,131;
Sacramento, $6I,S06; San Francisco,
416,912; Santa Clara, 83,539.
California's growth is the greatest
of any state in the Union in the last
ten years.
The ngures are remarkable as show
ing the great prosperity of the entire
state. California is unlike some Sec
tions of the east where the cities have
had their growth at the expense Of
the country. In the state the increase
has been almost evenly distributed
between the agricultural districts and
the cities and over all sections. While
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Oakland,
the bay and valley towns have shown
phenomenal growth, the farmers have
drawn their corresponding quota of
immigrants. A substantial class of
settlers, going from the states of the
east and the middle west, have made
their homes in the country districts
and added vastly to the wealth and
prosperity of California by introducing
intensive methods of farming.
1t is noteworthy that the growth of
the population since 1900 has greatly
increased over that of the preceding
ten years.
THREE MORE CONGRESSMEN
AS result of the enumeration Cali
fornia is entitled to three more con-
gressmen If the apportionment of
| representation in the lower house is
made on the basis of one congressman
for every 100000 of population. The
state now has eight congressman. The
division of the total by 100000 gives a
result of ten, with a remainder of
111549, on which fraction California
will be entitled to one more represent
ative. The apportionment will be made
next year by the Democratic congress,
which will decide whether the old
ratio will be maintained or increased
in order to keep down the member
ship.
The population of the state by coun-
ties is as follows:

IMMENSE CHUTE FOR TIMBER

One of the longest and largest tim
Der chutes in the northwest, is located
on the klamath river, in the extreme
northeastern corner Of Siskiyou coun-
ty. California. 1t is used almost en-
tirely for shooting" saw logs from
the top of mountain down into the
klamath river. In total length this
great chute is about 5000 feet, and in
places it assumes an angle of about
As degrees. The chute resembles o
huge trough more than six feet wide
between the two sids at the top. The
bottom and sides are about IS inches
thick, all very securely jointed and
fitted together and, at short inter
walls, strongly anchored to the steep
mountain side.
Most of the shooting" Is done du-
ring the winter months when the
chute is coated with snow and ice,
or kept wet by rains When a big
log is started down the steep slippery
way it gains a tremendous rate Of
speed before reaching the rolling
stream at the mountains base-mOre
than 5000 feet below. So fearful is
the swiftness that the friction often
scOrches both the chute and the bark
on the logs. Only a few seconds are
required for the big log to make it's

few days later he hanged himself r.

not despair, however, and, drawing
revolver, shot himself twice He Wa.

shot himself just as a train was CON

wheels, but again his life was saved
and he was taken to the hospital He
managed to tear off his bandages and
swallowed them. Then he obtained
some water and drank it, and this,
with the cotton wool he had swallow
ed, suffocated him. Thus his seventh
attempt was successful.

When catering for a small family,
care, judgment and economy must be
used or one kind of food must be
served several times in order to avoid
waste.
When purchasing utensils and dishes
for cooking. choose the size most suit
able to the size Of the family, as such
an investment has a great advantage
even in serving leftovers.
In buying a roast, too small a one
dries out in cooking and is not an
economical purchase. The beef left
over may be served in slices heated in
Mexican sauce curry, tomato, or
horseradish sauce. The little bits too
small TO serve may be chopped and
seasoned, then used as sandwich fill
ing. or one can always have hash.
Bits Of leftover vegetable like car
rot, beans or corn, may be added to a
salad greatly to its advantage.
Eggs contain no waste and add to
the nutriment Of a dish When ma
king an omelet if few peas are at
hand fold them in at the last or
serve in sauce poured around an
omclet.
Very tempting desserts may be
made from stale cake cut in rounds or
fancy shapes, a preserved pear or
peach, with little Of the syrup and
whipped cream served on each piece.
For a small family one can make 50
many attractive little dishes that
would be entirely out of the question
with a larger family.
When using gas a small portable
oven 10 be used over a burner is a
great saving.
y delicious dessert which is both
pleasing tc the eye and the palate is
prepared By beating together a half
cup Of any faYorito jelly and the white
OF one egg. 1t will take Il little time
to beat until it stands alone. Lut the
result will repay the effort. Serve in
sherbet cups With sweetened whipped
cream on top. 4 change from the
usual French toast may be made by
cutting the bread in rounds or in some
fancy shape, dip in egg and milk and
fry in butter as usual Often a dish
refused many times will be welcomed
if the appearance is changed. 1t Is
necessary in ali successful cooking to
appeal first to the eye

HOUSE BUILT FROM ONE FIR.

4 fourteen room, two and half
story house, built entirely of the lum-
Der from a single fir tree, was recent
~ finished at Elma. on the west
coast.
The tree was a giant Douglas fir
and was felled west of the town. 1t was
marvelOusly straight and when scaled
was found to contain 10000 feet Of
serviceable lumber. Inside the bark
the stump measured seven feet and
nine inches in diameter, and the total
height Of the tree was over 300 feet
At the standard price of $25 a thou
sand the lumber in this tree was
worth more than $1,000. Elma is in
the midst of the great fir timber belt
on the west slope of the Cascade
mountains.
