LONDON, June 16. Returning par
ties from Madrid, who went there to
see that magnificent pageant, the Span
ish royal wedding, have brought some
really delightful stories back with
them about the young King and his
younger bride. The most delicious of
them was told by a lady-in-waiting in
a Mayfair boudoir the other day and
is already the story of all the ladies'
clubs. It happened on the wedding
day. The bride and groom had been
made one and were apparently ns live
ly as crickets after the many gorgeous
ceremonies that had tired everybody
else out. The great ball and reception
had begun at the palace. Alfonso and
Victoria had been seated on the throne
and had received the homage of gran
dees for an hour. The royal quadrille
was over. General dancing and prom
enading was going on.
The Queen-Mother stood in a rather
large group, which included the Prince
and Princess of Wales, other foreign
royalties and some of their lords and
ladles-ln-waitlng. They were talking
animatedly, when suddenly the Queen
Mother stopped and looked about her.
She missed their Majesties, the bride
and the' bridegroom. She Is a great
stickler for etiquette, is the Queen
Mother. She descried one of King Al
fonso's personal aides-de-camp and
beckoned, him to her.
On Still Hunt for King.
He is a particularly youthful officer,
a playfellow of the King, and only re
cently appointed. The Queen-Mother
told him to find the King at once and
demand his presence. The youth bowed
and departed. They do things early
in Spain, for it was then just 8 o'clock
at night. In ten minutes te youthful
aide-de-camp returned. He was out of
breath and in a very excited state. He
interrupted the Queen-Mother's con
versation and blurted out:
"Oh, Your Majesty, I cannot deliver
your message. Their Majesties have
gone to bed, the bedroom doors are
locked and chamberlains guard the
ante-rooms. They would not " But
the Queen-Mother stopped him and
waved him away. The royal circle was
dumfounded and for the moment dis
concerted. Nobody dared laugh, but
laughter bubbled over their facesand
their eyes sparkled with mirth. The
Queen-Mother immediately broke up
the circle, but not before she had whis
pered an epigram in the ear of the
Princess of Wales, which was loud
enough to be caught by others. "The
poor children," she said. "They are
almost too 'blentot.
Where English Falls Short.
She spoke, of course, in the universal
diplomatic language, French, and I
find it very hard to "do" the word
"blentot" properly Into English. But
what astonished everybody who knew
was when two hours later the young
King and his blushing bride made their
reappearance and joyfully led the way
to the grand banquet. Later in the
night, without a wink and with inno-
cet faces, they allowed themselves to
be led in state processional to the
bridal chamber. First went the Queen,
who was handed over to her ladies-ln-t
waiting, her maids of honor and her
ladles of the bedchamber. Then, went
the King, .In charge of his retinue of
lords and-chamberlains of. the , cham
ber. It was a very late hour when
with .the. state blessing, the youthful
couple were officially left alone to
their slumbers. a '
It has come out slice the wedding that
the King or Spain really proposed : first
to another English Princess. At that
time I stated that the Princess Patricia
of Connaught would probably be the next
Queen of Spain. Princess "Pat," as she
is popularly . called, was willing to be
come a Queen, but refused to change her
religion. So Alfonso's proposal was re
jected. It is few women who can boast
of refusing a King.
Airs. C. P. Huntington's Ball.
The American hostesses are saving up
their entertainments for Mrs. Longworth
and we will from now on have almost a
continuous performance of American din
ners, concerts and balls. The ball given
by Mrs. C. P. Huntington in the beautiful
Clock House, on the Thames embank
ment at Chelsea, will go down in history
as the most gorgeous floral display of the
season. The cost for flowers alone Is, I
understand, over $30,000.

SAYS POPE HAS CANCER.
Noted Italian Savant Predicts Ills
Death In Two Years.
ROME, June 16. There has been many
alarming reports and all sorts of con
tradictions regarding the Pope's health
of late. Dr. Lapponl, the Papal physi
cian, has given out several interviews, in
eluding one of special interest, to "La
Stampa" of Turin.
"The Pope," he said, "has had, so they
tell me, gout for these six years. He
has had only two attacks, however, since
he sat in the Papal chair and since I
have had the honor of attending hlr
When urged to explain the exact malady,
Dr. Lapponl refused, but he let drop the
significant remark, "La malattia pero
si presento In modo che nessuno ma!
credette che fosse gotta" (The malady,
however, presents itself In such a man
ner that nobody would ever dream It
was gout"). Other physicians asked to
dissect this remarak refused to do so,
pleading professional etiquette. '
One noted' savant, whose name Is not
made public, however, said that in an
innner circle of the medical fraternity it
is known that the Fope is suffering from
cancer of the stomach and that at a
special- consultation of experts held two
weeks ago it was declared that his
malady had reached such a state that
it was incurable. In other words, a death
sentence, inside of two years was pronounced.
SVLTA'S WORD IS BROKEN
American Ships Alone Can Secure
Rights of Missions.
BOSTON. June IS. Conditions in
Turkey are described as worse than
ever in ' a' letter just received at the
Christian Endeavor headquarters Jn
this city from Rev. Francis E. Clark,
D. D., president of the United Society
of Christian Endeavor, written after a
stay of nine days in Turkey. Dr. Clark
writes:
'Our own missions and schols are in
a more perilous condition than ever,
and since our American fleet was with
drawn from Smyrna, with only the
verbal assurances of the Porte that our
schools and churches would have as
many privileges as those of other na
tions, these assurances have been utter
ly repudiated and there seems no like
lihood of Americans getting their
rights until another fleet visits Turk
ish waters."
Why Kaiser Visits Haakon.
BERLIN. June 16. The court notes
with surprise Emperor William's ap
proaching visit to King Haakon, or
Norway, as it is customary for a new
sovereign to make the first visit. The
probable reason for the step to be tak
en Is that the Emperor desires to set
at rest the stories that he was opposed
to King Haakon's election and wanted
a grandson of King Oscar to become
King of Norway.

WARSAW, June 16. The rioting is said
to have extended to Lapy Station, on the
St. Petersburg Railroad, and to Staroseic
Station, of the Southwestern Railroad. At
both places the Jewish shops were looted
and Jews were murdered or beaten.
A mob devastated the Jewish shops
in the town of Chernayawiez, the first
station out of Bialystok on the line to
Grodno.
In Warsaw two police sergeants
were shot and killed and another po

Martial law has been declared and
troops are being rushed to the scene, but
the hunting down of unfortunate Jews
continued unabated yesterday afternoon

horrors. The commission dispatched to
Bialystok by Parliament can be relied
upon to make a pitiless exposure to the
country of any dereliction of the authori
ties.
The Jews at Kishineff are in a state of
panic, in view of reports that a Jewish
massacre is threatened. They hastily
closed and barricaded all their houses and
stores at noon today, and the town is now
patroled by cavalry, while pickets of In
fantry are stationed at strategic points.
Messages from Elizabethgrad and Krem-
entchug report that anti-Jewish excesses
are also apprehended there.
The Governor of that city says there Is
no hope of stopping the butchery of Jews
for two or three days. Mobs are invad

POLITICAL
POWER
FATHER DESMARAIS OBTAINED APOSTOLIC
BENEDICTION FOR HIS OREGON i
FRIENDS
ROME. Italy. May 30. (To the Editor.) It is a great pleasure for me,
through the columns of your esteemed Journal, to make known to all my
friends. Catholic and non-Catholic, in Oregon, that in a farewell private audi
ence granted me today by His Holiness the Pope I obtained a special apostolic
benediction for their Intentions. In the letter presented to me by the Holy
Father, the second article reads as follows: "Facultatem lmpertlendi Bene
dlctionem Apostolicam, nomine eanctltatls meae, omnibus parentlbus et
amlcls tuis, necnon fidelibus omnium missionum in qulbus, dum in Oregonlo
vegeret, adlaboravlt."
The Pope was deeply Interested in the report which I gave him of. the
missionary work In the State of Oregon. Last Sunday I attended the cere
mony of the beatification of the Carmelite martyrs of Compelgne, in France.
The Pope, seated in the sede gestatorla, was borne through the vast multi
tude which had gathered to witness the ceremony in St. Peter's.. There
were fully 40.000 persons in St. Peter's, and yet when the Pope appeared
there was such an absolute decorum observed that one felt the more deeply
impressed with the majesty of that great edifice. Everybody wanted to vent
his fellngs of joy and exclaim' "Viva 11 Papa," but such demonstrations in
St. Peter's are forbidden by Plus X. The procession was led by hundreds
of priests vested with cassock and surplice, monsignores and bishops, fol
lowed by 24 cardinals In their princely robes, and finally the Pope, with his
white cassock and red stole, blessing the tens of thousands as they bowed
their heads in profound veneration. This was a sight long to be remem
beredbut the deepest impression seemed to be made on the Pope himself.
His features were full of love and sympathy, and it is said by those who
stood near by that he shed tears on this solemn occasion. There were IS
Carmelite Sisters beatified for having been executed propter religlonem
Christl by the leaders of the French Revolution in 1794.
I leave Rome next Monday, "enchante de mon voyage." Of all cities
In the world, past or present, there is no other city which can compare in
magnificence and from a viewpoint of artistic work with the Rome of the
Caesars and Popes. I have spent two months in Rome, and I have seen all
the great churches and the ruins of the palaces of old, and I think among
them all the grandest edifices ever undertaken and completed by the hand
of man are the Villa Adrlana (Palace of Emperor Adrian) and the Basilica

Angry at Cannon's Snub.
Samuel Gompers and many other leaders
have been angry all Winter, and their
sneer has not cooled. They threatened
Speaker Cannon early in the year with the
displeasure of every unionist it ne aia noi
see to it that certain labor bills were
passed. Mr. Cannon told Mr. Gompers
and his associates that the interests o
the whole country must be consulted, and
thai class legislation, even for labor, must
be well considered before action can be
taken.
Ever since that demonstration the work
Ingmen leaders have been attempting to
Influence legislation, not only by voicing
their views at committee hearings, but by
addressing personal communications to in
dividual members of Congress, demand
ing that they make plain statements of
their attitude toward organized labor.
Some of these letters, it is said, virtually
threatened defeat at the polls unless the
members addressed should show by their
votes that they were friendly to the cause
of the unions. Some of the communica
tions sent to the Congressmen asked
point blank the question: "What Is your
attitude toward organized labor?"
Use Letters In Campaign.
Most of the letters were answered, and
at the meeting next week Mr. Gompers
will show these answers to the executive
council and ask them to decide whether
they shall be made public at once or held
until a more opportune time later in the
campaign. It is ssid that the answers re
turned by some members are spicy read

the labor unionists undoubtedly will be
used to defeat the writers.
Fight for Eight-Hour Bill.
At present the influence of the leaders
of labor is being exerted to secure the
passage of the eight-hour bill. The meas
ure provides that on all Government eon
tracts eight hours shall be the limit of a
day's work. There is a law in force that
this shall be the length of the working
day of men employed directly by the
United States, but the new legislation will
extend the law to men who make con
tracts with the United States. This bill
was in the hands of the committee on la
bor for months. Finally it was reported
favorably to the House, but it stands vir
tually no chance of passage at this ses
sion. It never would have been reported
favorably If some members of the com
mittee believed to be opposed to it had
been present when the report was voted.

WASHINGTON. June 16. Representa
tive Rufus Ezlekel Lester of Savannah,
Ga., died at the Cairo apartment house
tonight at 6:23 o'clock as the result of
injuries he sustained in a fall through
a skylight last night. Although. Colonel

threw light on the manner in which he
was injured.
Colonel Lester had only one child liv
ing, Mrs. Edward Marrow, of Savannah,
who is at sea on her way from Savannah
to Boston and cannot' b reached with
the news of her father's death until the
arrival of the steamer at Boston tomor
row. Although funeral arrangements can
not be completed until Mrs. Morrow lanas

burial will be in Savannah, probably
Wednesday.
Colonel Lesterday was born in Burke
County, Georgia. December 12, 183T,' and
received his education at Mercer Univer
sity, in that state, graduating in 1857.: He
studied law and was admitted to the bar

the Civil War broke out he enlisted in the
Confederate' Army and served with credit
throughout the conflict.
Returning to Savannah at the close or
the war. he resumed the practice of law.
and soon after became active in Demo
cratic politics. He served In the State
Senate from 1870 to 1879, the last three

PAPER TRUSJ PROTESTS
Objects to Restrictions Against
Price Agreements in Decree.
ST. PAUL, June 16. Judge. Sanborn de
livered an oral opinion in the United
States Circuit Court this afternoon, di
recting that the decree asked for by the
United States against the General Paper
Company et aL be filed. The form of
the decree had been under discussion by
Judge Sanborn during the day. A part of
the decree to which the paper companies
objected was that preventing defendants
acting as selling agents for their constitu
ent companies. .This was waived as not
affecting the General Paper Company,
which was already undergoing dissolution
pursuant to the orders of the court.
The main stand of the defendants, how
ever, was made on a paragraph of the
decree prohibiting the defendant compa
nies from agreeing or contracting among
themselves to set a price for paper. The
defendants claimed that the Government
can only Issue injunctions restraining
companies from continuing acts alleged
in the complaint, while this paragraph
related entirely to the future, and was
not connected- with the testimony con
cerning past facts.
FREE LOVE IN CHICAGO
"Home of Legalized Mormonlsm,"
Declares Divorce Court Judge.
CHICAGO, June 16. "Hail, Chicago!
City of free love and legalized Mormon
ism!" Judge Gibbons, who made his an
nual report today to the Supreme Court,
has made the above startling statement.
He says, among other things, that Chi
cago is the Mecca of all the mismated
members of the human family seeking
solace in free love, and that the law of
divorce prevailing and enforced practical
ly establishes legalized Mormonlsm.
Statistics are given to show that the
divorce mania has reached alarming pro
portions in this city. The Jurist asserts
that nearly 1 per cent of the families of
Chicago seek divorces, and that about 95
per cent of the suits are instituted on be
half of abandoned, abused or dependent
women, with large families.

and Makes It Law.
HOPES ARIZONA WILL JOIN
Oklahoma Sure of Admission and
State of Arizona May Come in
If Two Territories Unite.
Two Pena for Signature.
WASHINGTON, June 16. Another star
was added to the Union today, when
President Roosevett signed the bill ad
mitting Oklahoma and Indian Territory
as one state. The measure also provides
that Arizona and New Mexico may be
admitted to statehood as the State of
Arizona, provided the people of the ter
ritories vote in favor of admission on the
terms submitted by Congress.
The signing of the measure was made
the occasion of an interesting ceremony.
Senator Beveridge and Representative
Hamilton, chairmen of the Senate and
House committees on territories, who
have worked long and hard for the meas
ure. ' were present, as also were Delegate
McGuirej of Oklahoma, and a number of
residents of Oklahoma; Delegate An
drews, of. New Mexico; Secretary Loeb
and others. Just before the President
signed the bill. Ambassador Speck von
Sternburg, of Germany, was ushered into
the office, and he, too, witnessed the
ceremony.
The President used two pens in sign
ing the measure, writing the first name,
"Theodore," with a solid gold pen pre
sented by the people of Arizona, his fam
ily name, "Roosevelt," with an eagle's
quill taken from an eagle in Oklahoma,
After signing the bill, the President
congratulated Mr. Beveridge and Mr.
Hamilton on the completion of their long
and arduous labors in connection with the
measure. He also expressed the hope
that the people of Arizona and New Mex
ico would avail themselves of the oppor
tunity to come into the Union as a state.
From every view point, he said, he re
garded this as the wise thing for them
to do, as the opportunity might not come
again In a score of years. The President
said that he had a personal interest in
the admission of Arizona and New Mex
ico, as many of the members of his regi
ment, the Rough Riders, resided in those
territories.
LADRONE LEADER GIVES UP
MACARO SAKAY SURRENDERS HIM
SELF TO AMERICANS.
Self-Styled President of Filipino Re
' public Says There Is No Sense
in Flshtlngr.
MANILA, June 16. Macaro Sakay, self
styled president, and Francisco Carton,
vice-president of the ; Filipino Republic,
surrendered at the constabulary head
quarters In Manila today. The military
and civil ' authorities are much elated,
as Sakay was chief of ladronlsm in Lu
zon, and his surrender means an end of
the campaigns in this section. The sur
render of this ladrone chieftain was ac
complished through the influence of Vil
latfuerte, an ex-offlcial of Sakay's gov
ernment. AVas Persuaded to Surrender.
The acting chief of the Constabulary
conferred with Viilafuerte two months
ago and when the latter gave himself
up he promised to use his influence with
Sakay to persuade him to surrender. He
met Sakay in the provinces recently for
a long conference and which resulted in
the latter's surrender.
"I surrendered," said Sakay. "because
fighting is an uphill game, and the Fili
pinos will never succeed in gaining inde
pendence until they show themselves
worthy of it. There is nothing to be
gained by opposing the Americans."
Is an Educated Filipino.
Sakay's surrender is regarded as the
most important since the close of the in
surrection. He is an educated Filipino,'
and after giving the American authorities
much trouble In and around Manila, pro
claimed himself supreme head . of the
republic with headquarters In the Taga
dog Islands, formed a large staff and is
sued commissions to Generals and other
officers
He wPnt into the provinces three years
ago and started a Campaign of general
depredation. A reward of 11000 was of
fered for his capture. Sakav fought sev-
"eral battles with the Constabulary, and
was Jwlce reported killed, but always

Girlhood, Womanhood, Motherhood.
Th first lesson that the young girl
has of womanhood is usually a painful
one. She learns to know what head
ache means, and backache, and some
times is sadly borne down by this new
experience of life.
AH the pain and misery which young
girls commonly experience at such a
time may, in almost every instance, be
entirely prevented or cured by the use
of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It establishes regularity. It tones up
the general health, and cures headache,

HOW TO LOOK BEAUTIFUL.
Young women or matrons should not
allow themselves to look sallow and
wrinkled because of those pains and
weaknesses which become chronic and
are the result of colds, tight lacing, and
the imprudent care of the womanly sys
tem. Many a woman would look beau
tiful, have nealthy color and bright eyes
if it were not for those drains on net
strength and those weaknesses which
come all too frequently and make her
life miserable. There is a ready-to-usa
Prescription, used a great many years bf
Dr. R. V. Pierce in his large practice as
a Specialist in women's diseases, which
is not like the many "patent medicines"
on the market, as it contains neither
alcohol nor any narcotic, or other harm'
ful drug. It is purely vegetable. It is
known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription and is sold by druggists.

windy belchings, " heartburn." pain
and distress after eating, and kindred
derangements of the liver, stomach
and bowels.
Persons subjected to any of these
troubles should never be without a vial
of the "Pleasant Pellets" at hand. In
proof of their superior excellence it can
truthfully be said that they are always
adopted as a household remedy after
the first trial.
One little "Pellet" is a laxative, two
are cathartic. They regulate, invigor
ate and cleanse the liver, stomach and
bowels. As a "dinner pill," to promote
digestion, take one each day. To re
lieve the distress arising from over
eating, nothing equals one of ' these
little "Pellets." They're tiny, sugar
coated, anti-bilious granules," scarcely
larger than mustard seeds.
