Morgan Jr.. has Introduced tha custom of taking '" afternoon" tea at 4 o'clock or there J abouts in the office of the banking firm " which bears his name. Many members I of the big Wall street banking-houses are adopting the English, custom of . afternoon tea and wafers and as a con- seauence members of the firm adjourn from tbe outer business office to nrlvale room where tea is served. - In the London financial district the Custom of afternoon tea drinking among business men is generally ooservea. Young Morgan has been at the bead of the London house of J. P. Morgan Co.. for several years and - during his residence la that city has acquired the habit. - - - - George" W. Perkins, 'Jones Morgan Daily and Charles Steele, other members of the firm, are rapidly becoming tea drinkers. The elder Morgan while here rould not be persuaded to take part in the afternoon teas. His lunch is said to have consisted of a drink of water. That the tea-drinking fad la not con fined to one banking-house In Wall street is borne out by the fact that the National City bank also has tea. served.

Smith of Hood River, can didate for the nomination for the United States senate, although late In announo ing his candidacy, will be a moat im portant factor in the race for this high office of . the people." The boom that was started for him in" a smalt way has grown with remarkable rapidity. Not alone' has Multnomah county felt the Smith movement. Throughout the state Mr. .Smith's candidacy has made itself apparent already. the country press of 3 out of the VI counties having announced themselves editorially. - in favor of Mr. Smith's nomination for the senate. These editorials have not been of the hair splitting variety, but in one accord they have picked blm out from the other four men in tbe race aa the man pest suited to represent Oregon In the senate chamber. - Here.la the way the Condon (Gilliam county) Times puts Mr. Smith's candi dacy to Its readers:- " "E. U Smith of Hood River tot United States Senator Is , by far the strongest and best man In the race for senatorial honors. Me has never been associated with any of the various fac tions In the paet and his character and record are above reproach. He has shown by his work in the past that be has the best Interest of the state at heart. He has never, bolted a ticket, he has never used subterfuge or graft in any manner to further bis political ambitions. Clean, faithful, straightforward-and capable, he ought -to get the largest vote of any man In the race." In Portland the situation -seems to be somewhat confusing, owing to the somewhat acrid controversy between the Portland candidates. There are very strong indications that the busi ness men of Portland see the best solu tion of this difficulty in accepting Mr. Smith's candidacy. They say that his paat energy and activity in all that per tains . to the material progress of the state shows - him to be a .man of large views and that he would have both the knowledge and the will to support In the senate .measures tending to Port land's eommerlcal Interests. Of course. Portland has a verjeazeat Interest In the Improvement of the Columbl.1 river and harbor. Aa Mr, Smith waa a pio neer In this matter and In all of his services has ahown a perfect apprecia tion of the importance of thla work, not only to Portland, but to the whole Inland empire, the business Interests here have no reason to. doubt, but every reason - to believe, that Mr. Smith Is both capable and willing to serve the great commercial Interests of the city and the atate In- these particulars. - RAID BURGLARS or ENDS FATALLY Midnight Battle Results in Death . of One and Capture of I - ; V Another... : EX-SOLDIER AND WIFE ATTACKED IN THEIR HOME After Degperate Fight One Robber Flees and It Caught by Police, While Husband Kills Second and Recognises Him as Former Friend. f Joarasl Special gwrrlee.) - New Tork, April It.
