THE SEMl-WEEKly REPUBLIC.

vs. ebGtes
The Semi Weekly Republic has SO
many advantages as a news gatherer
that no other paper can claim to be its
equal. The whole field of news Il
covered thoroughly. The special features
and illustrations are always the best.
More noted writers contribute to lis
columns than to any other paper of its
class 1t is published especially to meet
the wants of that large cIsas of readers
who have not the opportunity or cannot
allord to read a daily paper.
The Geographic and cable service of
the Republic has never been equaled in
the history Of Journalism in this or any
other country.
The Semi. Weekly Republic has a
larger circulation now than any other
news weekly or seni-weekly.

Lieut.. Lunn,s Career.

Albuquerque, N. NJ. Nov. 21-Liuet
MaXimilliano Luna, whom Gen. Lawton
reported as having been drowned in the
River Agno, Philippines, is member
of wealthy Spanish family, who have
resided for generations at Los Lunas
within twenty miles of this city. His
war careerd started early in the spring
of last year. when he recruited a troop
of rough riders in this city and went to
the front with the troopers, storming
San Juan hill as their captain. On re-
turning to New Mexico, and after a
siege with the Cuban fever, he received
an appointment as lieutenant in the
regular army, and when President Nc
Kinley made call for additional SOL
diers to do service in the Philippines he
recruited for the Thirty-fourt infantry
throughout New Mexico and Arizona,
making his first recruiting station in
this city. After the infantry had re-
mained at Fort Logan for a month or
so orders were issued to move, and on
Friday, Sept s. on the transport Col
umbia, the lieutenant, with the Thirty
fourth, sailed for the Philippines.
In his native county of Valencia, this
territory. the people honored him with
many offices of trust. He filled the Of
flee of sheriff and besides several minor
positions, was elected to the house of
representatives of the territorial legis-
lature on several occasions, and during
one legislature presided with marked
ability as speaker. Lieut.. Luna was the
son of ex-Delegate to Congress Fran
quilino Luna, deceased. and nephew of
Hon. Solomon Luna the republican ma
tional committeeman of New Mexico.
A few years ago he was married to
Miss Keyes, daughter of Maj. Keyes,
who is now stationed at San Antonio.
Tex. Mrs. Luna accompanied her hus-
band as far as San Francisco on his
journey to the Philippines. She is now
at San Antonio

so that it may be preserved for future
reference and be in no danger of de-
struetion. The books are now very rare
and valuable. This one has a very COM
plimentary description, in which the
bishop gave it to DIR. Stilson as "the
best of secretaries.' Hardly day
passes but some valuable gift of this
kind comes to the department from
some appreciative Iowan.
1t is promised by the knowing ones
that there will be developments this
week in the senatorial and speakership
contests that viii be highly important
There has been somewhat of lull
awaiting the development of the Gear
policy on the speakership. Friends OF
Col. Dows say that he does not want
and will not have the speakership. \
good many men regard the speakershfp
as political grave. from which verY
few are ever resurracted. Senator
Gear, "Tama jim Wilson and Jonn Y.
Stone are notable exceptions to thar
rule. So was Gen. Ed Wright But
these We're long ago. For fifteen or
twenty years at least no man has beeu
much in evidence after he left the

Charity Ball Abandoned.

Kansas City, Nov. 21,-Right Rev. j.
j. Glennon, coadjutor bishop of the
diocese of Kansas City, speaking for
the Roman Catholic church, has dis
approved of a big charity ball being
planned for Thanksgiving eve in Con-
vention Hail. and the managers have
abandoned the affair.
Bitter disappointment is felt, as cos
tunes were in preparation, many tick
cts had been sold, and elaborate orders
had been placed for flowers, electric de-
signs and many other expensive con-
comitants of a charity ball.
The proceeds Were to have beeen ap-
Piled to the maintenance of the Roman
Catholic Orphan Boys Home, and from
indications it was thought $4,000 would
have been realized. The reasons for the
sudden change in plans are not made

SUICIDE AT NIAGARA.
nix nown Man Leaps Into River and
Goes Over American Falls.


Niagara Falls, \. Y, Nov. 21.-The
most sensational suicide of the year at
Niagara took place Monday afternoon
when an unknown man walked down to
Prospect Point, stood in meditation for
a moment, then raised himself over the
low iron protective railing and leaped
as far out into the river as he could.
The current is swift there and in a sec
ond he was caught in its grasp and
swept over the brink of the American
Falls TO his death. Several persons
were witnesses of the deed. among
them being Mr.. and Mrs. ]. f. Town,
of Cleveland. To Reservation officer
Anthony they said the man was about
80 years old. He wore light colored
Fedora hat and was Well dressed. No
body seems 10 know who the man was
or where he came from.

quest that it be forwarded to the house
of representatives. In the course OF an
interview with a correspondent of the
Associated Press he said:
Congress. if it occupies the first day
OF the session in passing resolution
declaring in unmistakable terms that
the sovereignty of the United States is
to be maintained in the Philippines,
thus dispelling Aguinaldo's delusion
that the anti-imperialists can assist
him, will be performtngSa sacred duty.
Such resolution would save the lives
of many American soldiers and of
thousands of deluded Filipinos, would
avert famine. suffering and desolation
from these islands and would render
unnecessary he expenditure of hun
dreds of millions of dollars"
The people of Gotta Bato, on the
southwestern coast of the island of
Mindanao, desire the establishment of
an American government there and
have addressed petition to Gen. Otis
asking him to send troops. In relating
how they had appealed to the dato to
protect them against the attempts of
Aguinaldo's officials to collect excess

peace" publicly beheaded half dozen

His family and physicians were at his
bedside when he expired.
The vice president had been falling
since late yesterday afternoon, al
though the reports given out at the
house were that he was holding his
own. At midnight he became uncon-
scious and at this morning he had an
attack Of angina pectoris, from which
he never rallied. His death followed at
1880.
Mrs. Hobart, DR.. Newton and Mrs.
| Newton, who is cousin of Mrs. Ho
bart, and nurse were at the patients
bedside constantly from the time he be-
came unconscious. AT 7:30 the vice
presidents private secretary called up
the white house by telephone and not;-
fled Mckinley that Hobart was dying.
AT o'clock the private secretary
again communicated with the presi-
dent, notifying him of the vice presi-
dents death.
Garret A. Hobart, Jr., was also at his
fathers bedside. Mrs. Hobart bears UP

| The flags on the city and other public
buildings were half masted when the
news of the vice presidents death be-
came known. Flags on many private
buildings and dwellings were also hung
at half mast. The bell on the city hall
was tolled at intervals during the fore
noon. The Passaic county court ad-
ljourned in token of respect to the dead
vice president. Although Hobart's
there was still a faint hope up to the
last among his personal friends in
Paterson that he would survive for
some time to come. Soon after the
news of the vice presidents death was
sent over the wires kilograms of condo

4 Before Hobart became unconscious
he was able to converse with Mrs. Ho-
bart about some private affairs. He
was very patient and showed his re

deavor to have a talk with Mrs. Ho-
bart over the telephone this afternoon.
During the forenoon many of the
vice presidents friends and neighbors
called at Carroll Hall and left their
cards. Business houses and public
buildings in Paterson are draped in
black. A special meeting of the COM
mon council was called at noon at the
city hall to take suitable action on Ho-
bart's death. The vice presidents pri-
