GOLD ANKLErs on A GIRL cYc1Isr

At one of the London railway
termini recently handsome and sty-
fish looking girl created considerable
interest. She was wearing q becom.
ing cycling dress, and had her machine
with her. Her skirts were short
enough to display massive gold cable
chain anklet just above her left ankle.
If her object was TO attract attention
to the undoubted "shapeliness" of
that portion of her anatomy and to
an uncommonly neat pair of Oxford
shoes, she was eminently successful,
for all eyes were turned downward to.

interesting novelty. Pail Mall Ga

tea and pickles can be provided for
working women at a moderate ex-

The idea of such n lunchroom origi.

a certain church in Cleveland. A room
centrally located among the dry goods
stores was hired, but for some reason
the church women could not make II

as follows:
Meats 8 cents.
Veal chop, Drowned beef ham and eggs.
Vegetables. cents

POISONED BY THEIR MOTHER.
Four Out of Seven Children and the Mother
Die by Strychnine.

Omaha, Neb., oct. A special to The
Bee from Schuyler, Neb., says: During
yesterday afternoon Frank Steinad came
hastily in from Shell Greek precinct,
nine miles northwest, TO summon a ply
stefan 10 the home of Frank Divis
where he said the whole family had been
poisoned. DR.. SiXta FASTENED out and
found four of the seven children in the
family and their mother dead, a fifth
child in dying condition, and a sixth
victim sick. Divis and his oldest son
went away early in the morning, leav-
ing before the rest Of the family break
tasted. When the meal was prepared
all sat down and early in the course Of
the meal Mrs. Divis made some such re-
mark as: Eat good breakfast, and
well all go together"
An Older sons mind was affected by
the remark 10 the extent that he did
not appease his appetite. A daughter,
younger than the son, after drinking
about half a cup Of coffee became sick
and vomited. The rest Of the family
continued the morning meal, although
the children made wry faces and said
the coffee did not taste good. Strychnine
had been put in the coffee, which soon
showed its effects. when those not pros
trated spread the alarm, but not soon
enough 10 avoid the fatal effects noted.

QUEEN REGENT Is FOR REFORM.
Said tn Have Bounced the Conservatives
for Cruelty and Corruption.

London, Oct. 4.-The Madrid corre-
spondent of The Standard says: The
queen regent took a strong initiative
during the crisis, and profoundly sur
prised General Azcarraga by leaving
him no alternative but resignation. She
frankly expressed her disapproval of
the Conservative administration, es-
pecially in it's treatment OF the anarchist
prisoners at Fortress Montjuio She
said she had allowed Senior Canovas to
remain in office in the hope that he
would modify the rigor of his repressive
policy in Cuba and that she had re-
peatedly called the attention of minis
tiers TO administrative scandals and
abuses Moreover, her majesty said she
waited patiently for two months after
the death of Canovas in the hope that
the new government would correct
these evids.
ION its failure to do so she took IL
upon herself TO consult General Cam
pos, Senior Slvela and others as to the
best means Of pacifying Cuba by an
endeavor TO satisfy the autonomists
and thus virtually TO steal a march on
American diplomacy. All the statesmen
whom she consulted appear to have ad-
vised a Liberal cabinet as the best
means OF attaining the queens wishes.
Thereupon her majesty thanked Gen
eral Azcarraga for his splendid SER
vices as minister OF war and intimated
her intention to appoint Senior Sagasta
as president OF the council
"Senor Sagasta met with a hearty re-
Spouse on the part Of all Liberal states
men and all the Spanish stocks and Sc
curities have steadily risen on the
strength of this settlement OF the crisis"
The Daily News says, editorially this
morning: IF General Woodford has
not presented an ultimatum at Madrid
IL seems clear that he has made repre-
sensations carrying tolerably similar eff
fects and practically resulting in the
downfall Of the cabinet. The change
of ministry seems TO tend toward an
accommodation with Americas known
desires"
