was in the race for gentlemen riders of
South st. Paul. They cantered around
hither and thither in ridiculously con-
fused way. Some went all the way
around the track and others rode to the
back stretch and cantered back again,
only to be sent right by the Judges.
Meanwhile the spectators split their
throats with laughter, and il was one
perpetual scream until the heat was
run. Blue Bird, the favorite, showed
the way to the first turn, with Duke
close up and whipping. Then came
Black Bell and the others strung out.
The only feature was the ludlcrous rid
ing. All rode up the stretch, whipping
vigorously ana giving free head to
their mounts, and the horses swerved
around from side to side. They were
pretty well tagged out at the wire.
Blue Bird was first, Black Bell second

they all came in fiogging. The time
was half second faster than the other.
The horses were all badly blown.
Then came the run off between Blue
Bird and Black Bell. Blue Bird went
without a saddle in genuine cowboy
style, but she wasn't in it. Black Bell
led all the distance to the wire with

ROME, Aug. THE Italian cabinet
was recently sounded by the French
ambassador to the Vatican on the sub
ject of a possible settlement of the
trouble with the papacy by extending
the limit of papal jurisdiction over the
city of Rome, Italy to have the rights of
a general nature that NIGH be requisite
to protect the welfare of the Kingdom.
When the matter was submitted to King
Humbert he declined to give it even a
moments consideration, and declared
that Rome would forever remain the
capital OF united Italy; that he would
as soon think of surrendering his crown
as of recognizing any other authority in
Rome, land that however much it panied
him to be under the ban of the head of
the Catholic church, it was farthest
from his mind to surrender one iota of
what had been won with so much sacri-
flee and suffering by the Italian people.
The French ambassador took back the
answer to the Vatican, where there was
much chagrin. as it appears to have
been supposed that the king was in a
frame of mind less uncOmprOmiSing
than formerly. A prominent citizen of
Rome stated, when he heard this, that
even if Italy should ever abandon Rome
the Romans themselves would never
again submit to the papal yoke.

LOOK TO THE PEOPLE.
Points of Policy From Vatican
DiSnitarieS.

ROME, Aug. 7.-Prof. O'Gorman, of
Washington university, has had an au-
dience with the pope. His holiness
made many inquiries about the univer-
sitY and its courses of study and about
Archbishop Ireland and Bishop Kean,
rector of the university. Prof. O'Gor-
man has had interviews with many
eccleSiaSticS high in rank. He found
them all opposed to any such scheme as
that proposed by Herr CahenSly, and
hopeful tnat the pope's prompt decision
would keep the matter out of politics in
America. Cardinal Rampolla thought
the influence of Cardinal Gibbons
and Archbishop Ireland would likewise
have great weight i'll this direction.
Cardinal Parochi. bishop of Rome, ex-
pressed himself as heartily in favor of
Arch bishop Ireland's views IN regard
to the duty of AmericaniZing imml-
grants. and also touching Christian
democracy. The FUTURE" he said,
"belOngs to the people of the United
States"
Speaking of the temporal power of
the papacy, Cardinal ParOchi said it
was not necessary that Catholics should
demand return to the old regimef
1uey SHOulu uelHduu nOlHlIS ulOlc Iiisali
that Rome should be free-an indepeh-
dent international Catholic town. THAT
is, he said, 1.-The idea of Pope Leo"
Leo" he continued, "has plainly and
clearly expressed approval of political
alliance with the democracy. 1T is the
only good and possible alliance. The
church will have to reckon less with dy-
nasties and states than with the people.
The reign of the democracy is fact and
a triumphant fact" Cardinal Parochi
concluded by saying that the flu
ture pope will be and should be re-
forming pope IN matters concerning the
canon law and the ecclesiastical system.

A JEALOUS FOOL,
With a Revolver and a Bad Heart,
Does Murder.

CINCINNATI, Aug. About 8 o'clock
ployed by the Baltimore & Ohio South
western railroad, shot and almost in
stantly killed Ida Kipp just as she was
entering the gate of Fifth street beer
garden with gentleman friend. Levy
had been paying attention to the
girl for some time and was jealous
of her. He saw the couple walking
together OH the street and followed
them for several blocks. Just as they
reached the beer garden he stepped up
and drew a revolver from his pocket,
firing four shots at her, one taking effect
in the head and another through the
left hand. He then placed the weapon
to his own head and pulled the trigger
but it missed fire. He ran down Fifth
street drawing the shells from his re-
volver and trying TO reload it with the
intention of ending his own life. In
his flight he stumbled and fell
to the sidewalk, dscharging the
revolver but doing no serious damage.
He got up and tried to escape from the
crowd who were after him, but was
finally captured and lodged in the CEN
tral police station. Levy was an appli-
cant for position on the police force of
this city, and had passed the eXamina-
ton few days ago: He is about twen-
ty-siX years old. Ida Kipp was hand
some girl about nineteen years of age.

Installation of G. A. r. officers and
Adjournment.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. To-day. ac
cording to the G. A. r. programme, was
to be excursion day, but 1t is exodus
day. The encampment was later
in gathering this morning and the
attendance was curtailed. Reports of
progress on the Sheridan and Logan
monuments were read. There are S12,-
600 private subscriptions and congress
sional appropriation, enough to make
some So, 900 for the Logan; for the
Sheridan monument $4,000 are OIL hand
and more coming. A report on the
erection of a national memorial hall In
Decatur, H., was adopted. The quar-
termaster's report showed the finances of
the order to be in excellent condition. A
large lot of miscellaneous matter, reso-
lutions, etc, were laid on the table.
Among them are questions for a $1,000
appropriation from the Grand Army for
a monument to DR.. Stephenson, the
founder of the organization. A glowing
resolution was adopted eulOgiZlng and
emphasizing the generous treatment
accorded the G. A. r. by the city of De-
trOit. The capita tax was reduced from
3 cents to cents from next January.
1.-THE encampmemt then began the in
stallauon of the newly-elected officers.
The officers were called to the stage, the
encampment arose. the ritual was read

these simple ceremonies the officers
took their places. Commander-in-Ch
John Palmer was presented with the
flag by the retiring cOmmander-in-chlef
with the declaTation that there would be
100000 men Sand by him and the flag.
Palmer then assumed the gavel
and closed the silver encamp-
ment. This afternoon the dele
gates took a boat for pleasure trip
on the river. The committee appointed
to fake action on the deatd of Gen
Sherman. Admiral Porter and eY-Vice-
President Hannibal Hamlin and Past
Commander Charles Devens, reported
an appropriate resolution. The new
council of administration met and trans
acted some routine business. Before
adjournment the annual salaries and
expenses were voted the same as last
year and appropriation was made for
the keeping in repair the cottage at
Mount McGregOr.

BOILED HIM ALIVE.
Persia's Ruler Is Severe on Indis-
CPeetneSS,

CECGInGSSs
LONDON, Aug. IA letter from Te-
heran brings a queer report to the effect
that the shah, having become much en-
ragged against Abdullah Khan. the gov
ernor of Mazenderan, condemned that
ruler to the terrible death of being
boiled alive. The charge against the
unfortunate governor was that he had
embeZZIed the taxes due the shah'S
treasury. The truth, it is alleged, is
that Abdullah had not embeZZled any
more than he was in the habit of doing,
but that, owing to poor harVeStS and the
poverty of the peSantry, he did not
keep the usual amount for the shah.
This greatly enraged the monarch, who
is much in need of money. and he caused
Abdullah to be seized and brought to
trial before the council of state, which
unanimously found him guilty of en-
bezzlement, and found him worthy of
death, leaving the sentence to be passed
by the Shah. The latter, with view
of striking terror into other thieving
governors. ordered that Adullah should
be boiled alive. but graciOusly decreed
also that the water should be boiling
hot at the time of the fatal dip, so as to
finish him as quickly as possible. The
sentence is said to have been carried
out. The severe punishment will, it IS
supposed, be lesson to other govern
ors to be more prompt IN their pay
ments, The punishment of boiling
alive has been inflicted in Persia be-
fore, and the Persians claim that under
the above conditions life is destroyed
Immediately, and there is no suffering
