cried: "And the Holy Ghost de
scended in the form of dove" bat
no dove appeared. He repeated the
sentence. Still no dove. At the

PRINCE ALBERT MODEST.
st. Louis Young Woman Fails to Pro
cure His Autograph.

st. Louis, May 27.-Prince Albert of Bel
giun and his escort, consisting of Colonel
IL Jungblutt DR.. L. Melis and Baron
Joostens, Belgian ambassador at Wash
tngton, will leave st. Louis Wednesday
evening for Pittsburg. After a day In
the smoky town of Pennsylvania the par

days visit at Newport r. L
An Incident emphasizing his modesty and
aversion to being honized took place in
the hotel restaurant. There is in st. Louis
a married daughter of one of the city's
best known and wealthiest business men.
She has Travelled extensively and, being
connected by marriage with one of the
noble families of Germany, she has been
aided in collecting many rare autographs
The names of Bismarck, Victor Hugo

Tuesday and it happened that the fair au-
tograph collector had the book with her.
MereSt chance, OF course, out as Sne was
an old friend of Manager Lewis of the
Southern, it occurred to her it would be
an excellent opportunity to nave the heir
presumptive to the Belgian throne jot his
name down among the illustrious ones in
her collection.
Her wish was conveyed to Manager
Lewis, who promptly detailed Assistant
Manager Frank Leonard as ambassador
extraordinary to the royal table, bearing
the precious album and dainty speech
calculated to coax the Prince forthwith.
Mr.. Leonard placed the album on the
table, delivered his speech to Colonel
Jungblutt, who transmitted it to his royal
highness. The prince replied laconically
to the colonel, who told Mr.. Leonard such
a thing as writing in the book was i'm
possible. The hotel man picked up the
book and slowly walked back to the table
where were seated the owner of the album
and her friends. He reported his fall

but did he see B1smarck's and Hugo's

Mr.. Leonard, who is generally willing to
dare anything for the sake of a pretty
woman, turned red and green and black,
all at once and then replied:

WHIPPING POST NEEDED.
Milwaukee Polish Family Cruelty

Milwaukee, Mis-, May 27.-An unus-
ual scene for a Milwaukee police court
was enacted before Justice Neelen, and
even the eyes of the hardened prisoners
and hangers-on grew dim at the story
of a wee child's woes.
Celia Kolar, a 3-year-old, with face
and body bruised and discolored from
cruel beatings. appeared as witness
against her adopted parents.
Celia, waif from New York City,
had been adopted by William and Bar

testimony of neighbors, have continual

OF the kOlarS can speak much English

giving as an excuse that they did not
want her.
The foster father is said to have used
a heavy belt with a big buckle upon the
baby, while the woman would strike
her with clenched fists. After these
punishments the child would be thrown
into tub of cold water
Judge Neelen sentenced the man and
woman to three months each in the
house Of correction and to pay a fine of
$780, expressing a regret that there was
no whipping post for such cases. The
little girl has been placed in charge of

COAL FROM Z. s.
Cervera's Squadron Has Been Usin &
Pennsylvania Product.

Philadelphia, May 27-Spain has been
getting coal from Philadelphia; is per-
haps still getting it. CerVera'S war
ships have drawn their life blood from
and have been given power by fuel fur
nished from the port of this city, city
proudly called by those who dwell in it
the most American city of the United
States.
There IS, unfortunately, no doubt
about 1t. Chief Secret Service Agent
John z. Wilkie. admitted that since the
war began l., 900 to Is, 900 tons of coal,
originally designed for Spanish naval
stations. had been sent and delivered at
sea. That is one confirmation, the
the highest possible one. A second
point Confirming the governments be-
lief OF it is the present vigilance in Col
Hector Of Port Thomas department. An
affidavit must now be made as to the
destination of vessels bound with coal
10 the West Indies, and the clearance
papers must be passed upon in the
treasury department. Even if the horse
mas been stolen the door is shut now.
There is third supposed confirma-
ton, indirect but very suggestive in the
light Of the other two. 1t is found in
the records of the Maritime Exchange
and its Importance lies in the fact that
from that record it is seen that right
now, after all these precautions, more
coal is being shipped to the West In
dies than before the Maine explosion or
before the war broke out. Whether
Philadelphia firms are endeavoring stil
TO sacrifice patriotism to business or
whether the business Is a perfectly le-
gttimate one cannot be more than
guessed at from the records. The fact
remains, that the amount has been in
creased.
Tampico. Mexico, has Ieaped into the
position of one of the big receiving ports
for the coal after Havana's exclusion.
Two hundred and sixty tons a day used
to go down there before the Maine ex-
plosion. Since then 430 tons have been
going down daily, SO. 628 tons in all since
February 16. Since the blockade the
average has been 500 tons a day
st. Thomas, in the Danish West In
dies, is, however, the port which has in
creased its coal import from this city
the most since the blockade. Before
that time ISL tons were all that had
been sent there since the first of the
year. Since April 10, 26, $50 tons have
been shipped to that port. That the
coal is to be used at st. Thomas no one
believes. Possibly it may all be need
ed for the French Transatlantic line
which now Goals at that port instead of
at Havana But that would not ac-
unnatural. There have been 1850 tons
of coal sent to Fort de France, in Hayti,
since April also. What this was for
Is not explained by any actual need of
Fort de France itself. Nassau St Luz
cia, where $40 tons were dispatched on
May 6, and where the Spanish fleet ap-
peared on May Is, Port Antonio Vera
Cruz and Kingston have all lately had
small shipments.
1t is impossible to name exactly the
firms whose coal may thus be feeding
the hungry furnaces of Spain's fleet J.

Second Expedition Will Hardly
Start Sooner.
No Rush After First 10000
Have Gone.

San Francisco, May 27.-Major Cen
era1 Wesley Merritt, recently ap-
pointed governor general of the Philip
pines, arrived in this city last night. All
future movements of the Manila eXpe-
ditions will be subject to his orders. He
will act on direct instructions from
Washington. General Otis will accom-
pany the second expedition, which is
expected to sail within three weeks.
The work of equipping the troops will
now be in charge of Colonel James w.
Pope, chief quartermaster on General
Merritt's staff, who also arrived last
evening.
The transporting of $4,000 troops to
the Philippines has set the government
agents to work securing the Pacific
ocean for transport vessels. So far
only $500 troops have been sent to Ad
miral Dewey's assistance. There are
1000 more in camp here and 40, 900 more
to come. About Is more transports are
required, together with half dozen
golfers.
The vessels so far secured for the Sec
ond expedition are listed as follows:
China, will carry 1900 men; Centen-
NAL, $50 men; Zelanadia, 1000 men;
Ohio, 1000 men; Peter Jebsen (renamed
Brutus), collier, could be converted to
