formerly minister of the colonies and
twice minister of commerce, to organize
a new cabinet. An answer was expected
Saturday. Senator Doumergue is 30
years of age, one of the most experienced
politicians in the country, with 20 years
of parliamentary service in both houses
and having served also as a member of
four cabinets. NJ Doumergue is So
cialist, but as the French Socialists are
divided into various sections his social
ism might be called of the moderate type
as compared with the thorough-going
quality of that of jena Jaures NJ. Dou-
mergue belongs to the groups which COM
bined to overthrow Premier Barthou, al
though as he is in the Senate he did not
take any personal part in the defeat OF
the government, except in the back
ground.
After he was asked by President Poin-
care to organize a ministry, Nj. Doumer-
que arranged to consult with George
Clemenceau, an ex-premier; ]. Louis
Barthou, the retiring premier; Joseph
Caillaux, Jean Dupuy, Alexandra Felix
Joseph Ribot, Aristide BRAND and Leon
all of them former premiers,
and other parliamentary leaders, to ask
them for assurances of their support IN
advance. 1t seems likely that Stephen
Pinchon, the foreign minister, will retain
his portfolio in almost any cabinet. The
foreign policy of France will be identical
in any event and therefore the attitude
of France toward the policy of the Unit
ed States in regard to Mexico will re-
main unchanged.

Ways To Cook Rice.

Rice is so nourishing that it is well
to know some appetizing ways of pre-.
pairing it.
1t is quite satisfactory as a vegetable
if well seasoned, and the plain rice pud.
ding can be glorifed If you put whipped
cream with little splashes of currant
jelly on top of it.
Ii you have not tried rice fritters
here is a good recipe for them:
Ingredient for six people, One pound
rice, four or five spoonfuls of flour, graf
ed peel of orange or lemon, sugar, vanil.
Ia fayoring.
Boil for half an hous in plenty OF
salted water one pound of rice, stirring
it now and then SO that ii does not stick
to the bottom of the pan. When cooked
spread on a plate and leave till next day.
Then add the grated rind of an orange
or a lemon and then four or five spoon.
fuls Of flour, mixing very hard and thor
oughly for 10 minutes. Drop the mix
ture by teaspoonfuls into the boiling fat
and fry golden brown. Should they
burst in the frying add little more
flour to the mixture.
Sprinkle thickly with sugar favored
with vanilla just before serving very
hot.
Still another rice delicacy is made
with cold boiled rice and little treacle
or honey, or better still, maple syrup.

ALIEN LAND LAW CONTROVERSY.
United States and Japan Seem To Be

Washington, Dec. SIT was inferred

day that the channels of diplomatic cor

results, and that any action looking to
an adjustment of the tangle must come

vaded by the law, while the United
States argued as persistently to the con-

Cleveland, Dec. s.--John D. Rockefeller
Saturday contributed $4,000 to the
fund of $25o,000 being raised for st.
Vincent's hospital, a Catholic institution,
which is more generally known as Char
ity hospital.
The Rockefeller gift came as surprise
to the executive committee of the hos
pital fund. F. Fl. Golf, banker, and Virgil
p. Kline, attorney, were recently in
formed by the Rockefeller board of
benevolence that the boards rules would
not permit donation to such fund.
Golf received telegram from the chair
man of the board Saturday saying that
the rules would be broken, as Mr..
Rockefeller had wired from Cleveland di-
recting the infraction.
The subscription is conditioned on the
entire fund being raised, but less than
$4,000 remains to be obtained.
