Pays $2O0 Board Bill After Owing
 Same Al Years

London, Ontario, March 20.-Mrs Bridget Eldredge has received pay ment in full for board bill of $20C which Daniel O'Brien, former room. CT; contracted before he dropped out of sight Al years ago.
 Mrs. Eldredge lives in Bruce coun- ty. She formerly resided in this city A short time ago Maj. T. J. Murphy, a local barrister, called on her. Mrs. Eldrcdee called his attention to a trun which belonged to O'Brien. She never had opened it.
 According to the aged woman, o. Brien roomed with her at London until she decided to move to Bruce county. At that time he owed her about $200, which he was not able to pay. He asked Mrs. Eldredgc to take his trunk, stating that he in- tended to move to Bruce county as soon as he strengthened his affairs.
 O'Bricn never came. In 1881 the steamer Victoria sank in the river Thames, and O'Brien was believed to have been one of the victims. AL though there was some doubt about his fate, he never was heard from.
 Murphy suggested that Mrs. Ed redge open the trunk. She did and found pass book on an Ontario banking concern which showed a bal ance of $315.99 in O'Brien's favor. It was turned over to the surrogate court, which was informed that the interest had swelled the deposit to $1,575.
 The judge computing Mrs. Ed redges' bill on the same basis, al lowed her $1,000.

Guinea Pigs as
 Food Make Debut

Chicago, March 2O.-Cavy pie. Sounds rather gamey, doesn't it? Here's the recipe as furnished by Miss Brooks, Smith, pioneer breeder of guinea pigs for food purposes.
 Cut the cavy into small pieces. Put in a kettle and ad one-half of a lemon, one-half of an onion and a sprig of parsley, and cover with wa ter. Cook one-half hour and add q half teaspoonful of salt Simmer till done. Remove cavv, strain and stock remove the fat, and cook till re- duced to four cups. Thicken with one-third cup of flour diluted with cold water. Place cavy in baking dish, remove the larger bones, pour over the gravy and cool. Cover with pie crust in which incisions have been made for escaping steam. Bake till crust is brown.
 Some persons shudder at the idea of eating guinea pigs Miss Smith said, but I don't see why their should. If they would overcome their foolish prejudices, they would find the meat more toothsomc than chick en-

Many Sweders are
 Against League

Stockholm, March 20.-Swedens re- cent decision to join the league of nations, was not reached without op- position in parliament. Conserva- tives fought the proposal to join on the ground that it would mean sur render of the country's independence. They declared that articles 12 to r would compel Sweden to take mili- tary measures against any power which the league considered to have opened hostilities without due cause.
 The army and navy chiefs assert ed that adherence to the league would not contribute to the country's mili- tary or political safety; but that it would impose responsibilities and burdens for which the guaranteed support of the league would not com pensate. Apprehensions were ex- pressed that Sweden's adhesion would prevent the nation from radically de- creasing it's military budget
 Judge Hellner, the minister of for eign affairs, who introduced the gov ernment's bill, said that the league would considerably diminish the risk of wars in Europe and the rest of the world. Sweden, he added, would continue to maintain policy of ab- solute neutrality.

Former Canadian
 Soldiers Lay Out
 Numerous Farms

Vancouver, B. c. March 20.-- About 800 Canadian war veterans who founded and populated com munity farming settlement at Mer- vile have cleared enough land to lay out ten farms of 40 acres each, and soon will draw lot for the farms so that the owners can start the spring planting.
 When the veterans returned from England they induced the British Columbia provincial government to buy for them 14,O00 acres of wild land on the hills overlooking the Courtenay valley, fertile section of Vancouver Island. Douglas pine trees were thick on the land and since the men went on it they have been busy clearing away the big timber and underbrush. For this the gov ernmcnt paid them daily wage of $4 and supplied them with dynamite and tools.
 Only one in four of the men en- rolled in the scheme has quit. A

Tells How 25,00O
 Russian Refugees
 Fled From Capital

I New York, March 20.--How more
 than quarter of a million refugees
 men, women and children, fled iron the once splendid capitol of Petro
 grad to take refuge in the famine
 stricken towns and villages of wintry Finland, was rescribed today in g
 message from the representative in 1 Finland of the American central
 committee for Russian relief, the or ganization formed from the Root commission, which has national head
 quarters at the Hotel Buckingham
 New York, and whose object is to
 rush aid to the non-bolshevik Rus
 sian refugees outside the borders of soviet.
 Forced to abandon their homes without time to gather together even the most meager necessities, this vast army of exile Russians are de- scribed as being in a desperate con- dition today. In addition to this, a representative from the committee's s expedition just arrived in Esthonia shows that in one small region more than 10000 similar refugees are herded together where typhus, in- 1IueIlZa ana Id1IllHe are running up terrific mortality rate.
 "The refugees in Finland number about 260,000," says the message, "all of them in desperate condition. As sistance from without has been utter ly lacking. They cannot possibly assist each other, having no means to do so. The Films themselves are suffering to such degree that they can render no aid whatsoever. The vast majority of these refugees be- long to the great Russian middle class who formerly earned their living with their own hands. Many of them also are of the better educat- ed people who were forced to flee from the bolshevip prosecutions be- cause they refused to subscribe to it's destructive doctrines. Hundreds of refugees interviewed by me have told how they were forced to flee their homes, carrying only such lug gage as small handbags or tiny bun dies of clothing which they were able to collect hastily.
 Mot knowing the Finnish language and to great extent being unfa- miliar with the customs of the coun try, the refugees find themselves helpless. For many months they have lived from hand to mouth hop ing that assistance would arrive, so that their morale is greatly lowered by futile waiting. The children and cid people, particularly, are suffering and are being carried away in thou hands by illness and starvation"
