v ' La Grande, Ore.
Dear Angelf ace:
I beg to apologize for addressing
you in this manner being an entire
stranger, but having the misfortune
to be unknown to you Is my only ex
cuse for this strange proceeding,
which, I know is entirely at variance
with the rules 'of etiquette. I have
on two occasions Been you 6n the
street, and ; I am frank to confess
that your appearance has made so
deep an Impression on me as to make
me extremely desjrous of forming
your acquaintance. Trusting that you
will do me the favor of allowing this
to commence a friendship which I
hope will not be regretted by either
of us. , y ;
Every time I think of you my heart
flops up and down like a churn
dasher; sensations of unutterable joy
oaper over it like young goats over
a stable roof, and thrill through it
like needles through a pair of linen
trousers, as a gosling swlmmeth in a
mud puddle bo swlmmeth I In a sea
of glory,, visions of eccastic rapture
thicker than the hairs of a blacking
brush, and brighter than the hues ot
a humming bird's pinion visit me in
my slumbers and borne on their In
visible wings" your image stands be
fore me and I. reach out to grasp it
like a cat. would , a mouse, wh'en I
first beheld youraagelic perfections
I was bewildered my brain whirled
around like a bumble bee under a
glass tumbler, my eyes stood open
like cellar doors in a country town,
and I lifted up my ears to catch the
silvery . accent of your voice. My
tongue refused to wag, and In sweet
adoration I drank the sweet infec
tions of love. Since the' light of your
life fell upon my life I sometimes feel
as If I could lift myself up by my
suspenders to the top of a bell tower
and ring the bell for fire. Day and
night you are in my thoughts, when
the jay mird pipes his tuneful lay
In the shades of the old apple tree by
the spring house, when the awaking
pig arlseth, from his bed and grunteth
and goeth forth for' his refreshments
when .the drowsy beetle wheels iu
drpwnlng flight at noontide and when
the lowing herd comes home at milk
ing time. I think of you and like a
piece of gum elactic my heart seenu
to stretch clear across , my bosom.
Tour hair, ,1a like the mane of my
sorrel horse powdered with gold, your
their liquid depths I behold a legion
eyes are' glorious to contemplate, In
' What tragedies, what Joys, are con
tantly being enacted In a great city
And the ups and downs there are!
Walk along an Important thoroughfare
and suddenly you come upon a wed
ding party Just entering or Just coming
but of a church. Proceed a little far
ther and you see a crowd gathered
about an auto. A child has been run
over and killed. Still farther you meet
a starving mother with a sickly babe
In her arms. A nurse trundling a child
dressed in embroidered and lace gar
ments turns the perambulator for fear
her charge' will be contaminated.
One bright moonlight night 1 was
walking over a bridge. The scene was
pleasing, and I paused and leaned over
the rail to enjoy it. "How fine It Is,"
I remarked to myself, "to live In a
city! By day there Is the excitement
of people and vehicles passing and re
passing, the hum of business and pleas
ure; by night myriads of lights, with
occasionally the one great night lamp
of heaven to illumine the whole." , ',.
Suddenly to my left down on the
water I 'heard a splash. A moment
later a human figure came to the sur
face and went down again. A boat
shot under an arch, and a man In It
dived and brought up a woman, and the
two were hauled Into the boat A po
liceman ordered the boatman to pull
ashore. While they were doing so 1
went to where he was standing.
"What were you doingr asked the
policeman of the girl, who by this time
bowed signs of life.. ,'
"1; wanted to die. Why didn't you
let me alone?"
"Whafs the matter?"; "
, "No home, nothing to do to earn a
living, tired and heartsick."
"Well, you'll- have to come along
with me to answer to a charge of sui
cide." '',' ,..;; O
"Policeman." I said, "will you let me
provide a carriage?" '
"1 can call the patrol wagon." .
An empty carriage was passing. 1
hailed It, and the policeman, the girl
and I got in and were driven to the
police station. ' .
I must pause here In my story to tell
what 1 afterward learned of the girl's
history. Some twenty years before
one passtng up one of the fashionable
streets of the city on a certain day and
hour, would have ween a party emerg
ing from a church. A young bride and
groom were starting in life with every
prospect of happiness; The gtoom's
father was head of a large business,
and the son had been made a Junior
Partner on the, daj, of bis tnarriaga.
A little girl was born to the couple,
ana she was taken to church bundled
In embroidered and lace garments, tike
the child la the perambulator 1 have
referred to, that she might be baptized.
Then i In a handsome atone residence
there was a christening feast, with a
millionaire for godfather. - V.rl ni
That was the year before the" great
panic of i73, when one morning it was
announced that a great business house
had failed and down went the other
concerns like card houses. The father
and son of this story fell with the rest,
the father dying of disappointment and
wounded pride. The clothing of the
baby, girl from that moment began to
grow, plain, then dingy. Her father
died, and her mother lived In want
Tbe child grew to womanhood with no
remembrance of her baby clothes.
When ber sun arose tbe son of her
family set Then ' her mother died.
Tbe girl went from place to place
begging for a situation, ' but nobody
wanted ber. Then one night he Mood
on the bridge. The waters below said.
"Come. 1 wlU give you rest."
The morning after, the attempted
suicide I weut to the courtroom where
the good and the bad. tbe unfortune
and the unregenerate. were brought up
before a mttclKtrate. In ber turn the
girl was led in nnd placed In tbe dock.
She hud no defense. She simply said
that, she bud . got discouraged, and.
passing over tbe bridge on her way to
her dingy room which she bad been
nflt!ile.1-su? .Cnst Ipatp nn the pinrnny
scene, then down os tbe water, and
she could not resist the call to oblivion
Tbe downward slide In life, though
It had marred, bad not destroyed her
comeliness. There was evidence of an
Inherited refinement both In person
and bearing.
Suddenly a member of tbe police
rpurt arose and said that there was a
yuuug man present who would marry
tbe girl If she were willing. lie was
produced. The girl looked at him, then
languidly gave ber consent What
could she do? '
"Judge." I said, rising. "If you will
end the girl to some borne where she
will be protected I will interest myself
In ber."
The Judge askrd tbe girl which plan
be would prefer, and she chose my
plan. She wast sent to a home for In
digent girls and soon afterward I
called upon the matron and got ber
charge's story as I have given It here.
I looked up a few of those who had
known . her parents, but found there
was no one to, take an Interest In her.
Some were dead, some were" very poor,
and tbe children of those who had kept
In touch with the upper stratum bad no
use for tbe children of those who had
gone down. What was to be done for
her I must do myself. 1 followed the
example of. the young man who bad
offered to marry ber. I could do noth
ing for her In any other way. She
consented, not languidly, aa she had
done with tbe other, but gladly.
A QUAINT OLD TAVERN
The
Old Cheshire Cheese,
the Heart of Londoru
In
pTte their lengthened cooking, are not
leathery. Tbe amalgamation and as
similation of the variety of constitu
ents are perfect; tbe result is bliss.
There is a story told of one eminent
litterateur who hnd seven helpings of
the pudding and tlll yearned for more,
and there I another remarbnWe nar
rative of four men who ordered a pud
ding of the regulation tl:'.e and finished
It among them.
2. Pierpont Morgan praised the pud
ding, and Theodore' Roosevelt was de
lighted with It. Lord Beaconsfleld be
stowed his approbation thereon, and
Gladstone thought It far superior to his
famous "three courses." Dickens.
Thackeray, Meredith. Swinburne, Ten
nyson, Trollope. Whistler, Lelghion,
Sala, Phil Muy all sorts of tbe best
of men of their dpy have fed upon tlw
pudding, and It no donbt helped to
Inspire their work.'
Apparently any cook can fashion It,
mix it. fix It, boll it. Let any cook try
It. Lots &f cooks have tried it. but the
results have , not been satisfactory.
There was a , man who once ran tbe
Old Cheshire Cheese, and in his day
the pudding first achieved Its great
fame. When he sold the old hostelry,
and took a house .in. the financial dis-'
trlct he announced that the same pud
dug the same In every respect would
be served every Saturday.
Many of the Cheese's old patrons
came around to celebrate." There was
the size, but the aroma was wanting;
there were the identical materials, but
the same, not a bit of it, There was
something missing. It may have been
the shnden of the departed great ones
of a bygone time. And so it is that
todajr the famous dish, of the Old
Cbethire Cheese tastes as of old, and
Ms devotees cannot be seduced by any
designing invitation based upon "just
as good" simply because there Is noth
ing just as good. Philadelphia Ledger.
SERVES A FAMOUS. PUDDING.
A Noble Paltry It Is, and , U Was
Sampled by Suoh Man aa Gladstone,
Dickans, Thackeray, Tennyson, Trol
lope and Whistler. ,
; Nearly all Americans -when they go
to London inake It a point to visit thut
qua tut old tavern in the heart of the
uewspuper uud printing business, the
Old Cheshire Cheese, to partake of
its famous pudding.
It is the Londoner's delight when he
gets back to Fleet street' to make a
rush for the pudding, and it Is almost
the last thing he eats before leaving
It. Travelers iu the Sahara hare seen
mirages of that puddiug, nnd during
the ' Uour war the men shut up In
Ludysniitu and Mufeklng dreamed of
Jt at regular Intervals. y r ,
Precisely at I o'clock p. m. Tom con.
vcys the pudding from the first to the
main floor. It la a big pudding, and
the price of It Is Just 2 ehllllngs-tliat
Is to say, a feed of it Is 2 Bbllllngs, as
much as you please, us muuy tsuares as
you ask for, cut and come again, all
for 4S cetits of American coin. Cheap,
aye, and, ouv how good It Is! It la
worth crossing the Atlantic to get a
milff of It, nud the aroma lingers In
tbe memory for many a day.
Big? The dimensions are Falstafflan.
It Is a round earthen vessel something
more than two dozen Inches deep, with
a diameter of about eighteen Inches.
A noble pastry, my masters! ,
'. When it Is placed upon the service
table an elliptical white crust meets
the hungry gaze. Tom and his myr
midons take their places in front fac
ing the host, who, knife and spoon in
nand, poses with gentle dignity and
benignant , mien. It la a moment of
solemn thought when every man hopes
thut his portion will be larger than his
friend's and that be will be blessed
with an - abundance of gravy. . But
they ought from years of acquaintance
Witt! the host to understand that his
hand Is as steady as his Judgment 1
Impartial. . ' , . ; - ; .
No more and nothing better fof one
than for another. He waves bis weap'
ons, and the first onslaught is made.
The "room Is full of a delicious steam
bearing with it tbe concentrated es
sences of ambrosial substances. The
guests sniff it up and murmur choice
blessings on the cook, the original In
ventor, the house and the host. ; It is
a time when men feel good one to
ward the other. y
One smell of that pudding makes
the whole world kin.'' This famous
pudding, which has tickled the palates
of thousands, Is thus compounded:
. A crust ot flour, water and suet
-Beefsteak. - ,..-.;. . .- ''.'?
Sheep's kidneys.'. : ;
Larks. . -
Mushrooms (freshly fathered), y
Oysters. ',
Stock. : y ' " V
Pepper and salt. ; . :
But it is the boiling' that does it.
For at least twelve hours this heaven
sent puddiug is kept slowly simmering
in an Immense copper specially con
structed for the purpose. It must not
boll quickly, but the same tempera
ture be kept up the whole period. The
(teak assumes a juicy tenderness; tbe
larks not sparrows, as some malig
nant spirit has suggested, although
sparrow pudding is not to bo despised

can chew up each little songster with
out an effort; the kidney are soft and
mushy and offer no resistance to ther

the
',. Plan For Centralization. V
"Further, this centralizing Idea, is
going to offer the general public an
easy way to keep in touch with prog
ress In the whole field. In these busy
days not 'many men or women have'
time to '.ook Into the work of hun
dreds of organizations scattered all
over the United States. But when we
get a central clearing house call it a
philanthropy trust' if you like then
any person can find out with not much
trouble what is being done In any glv-,
en rlne of effort."
Another benefit aimed at in this unity,
of purpose Is the bringing together of
the scientific students and the prac-

field workers have not always ; ad
vanced in step.- The conference in
tends to assist ehcb class to under
stand the other and thus benefit the
general purpose for which , both are
striving by different but equally Im
portant methods,. Tbe Child Conference
has its eyes fixed on Washington and
wants, some day to secure a federal
children's bureau. Resolutions have
already been adopted favoring bills be
fore congress for that purpose, y'
"The time has come, in tbe opinion of
this conference," a last year's resolu
tion ' ran, 'when all effort for the
amelioration of the conditions of child
hood of a chnrltnble and philanthropic
nature should be based upon and so
far as practicable guided by the re
sults of scientific child study,' and
only thus ' may1 tbe various lines be
given a more scientific and workers a
more professional character". , .
In other word, this organization in
tends to kill off a lot of haphazard
work that has been going on with the
avowed purpose of helping children
and substitute work that is more In
telligently dlrM-ted ' and more bene
ficial to those who do It, to those who
are the subject and likewise to those
who support lt by money or personal
Interest. y 1 - ' , '
