IsMAEL KEMAL BEY ESCAPES.


CONSTANTINOPLE, May 2.-It is now
learned that Ismael Kemal Bey, well
known for his friendliness for Great
Britain, and who was recently appointed

tantamount to exile, and who was reported
April 30 to have mysteriously disappeared

DISCOVERY AT EPHESUS
DISCUSSION CONCERNING THE
"CHRIsT AND AGRIPPA" LETTERS
But Little Cleared Up by the Recent
Observation-Disclosures Officer Es-
capes ON a British Gunboat.

LONDON, May 2.-Prof. George r. NJ.
Murray, keeper of the Department of Bo-
tany in the British Museum, when ques-
toned by the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press to-day regarding the reported
rediscovery, after being lost for more than
nine hundred years, OF letters alleged to
have passed between Christ and King
Agrippa and to have been carved i'm stone
over the gateway Of the palace Of the kings
of Ephesus. says:
There is no doubt that the inscription
found at Ephesus is a genuine production
OF the fifth century. Beyond that nothing
definite can be said except that it is in the
nature of a -corroboration of the Syrian
writings of the second century discovered a
few years ago relating to alleged mess
ages between Christ and Agrippa. The dis
covery of the stone inscription at Ephesus
was made by Professor Heberdey. who had
charge of excavations there on behalf of
results of his work some time ago in
Vienna.
1.-The fact that these alleged letters be-
tween Christ and Agrippa were used as q
charm by Christians in the fifth century
on their lintels is established; but this
would not prove that any such corre-
spcndence occurred. Certain Syrian docu-
ments dated in the years 200 A. d. and
giving almost the same letters have long
been suspected of being literary forgeries
The discovery of the stone tends to relieve
this suspicion, and makes it toleraby cer-
tain that as early as the second century
news of Christ's miracles had spread to
heather countries and that the early
Christians believed that Agrippa asked
Christ to come to heal him, and that
Christ replied
1.-The alleged answer is almost para
phrase of much that is found in the New
Testament. Whether it was actually sent
or was the result of a continuing tradi-
ton. transferred from papyrus to stone, is
a question opening too wide field for a
mere archaeologist. Many points of Pro-
fessor Heberdey's discovery, however, are
most important

Known Dead Number IFS.

SALT LAKE, Utah. May 2.-The reports
from Scofeld up to IL o'clock tonight say
that 1T is now known that LIS are dead from
the explosion and that the estimate of loss
will increase rather than decrease. One es-
innate is that there were $50 men in the

been at least 800 lives lost.

BATTLE OF MANILA BAY
BE REPRODUCED IN FIRE
WORKS AT STATE FAIR.

The standing Of a nation among the
powers of the earth has always been
reckoned by her success on the sea- For
the United States, the battle Of Manila
Bay was an epoch-making event, and
placed the name of Dewey in the galaxy
of the nations greatest heroes It is
not astonishing, therefore, that the Amer
lean citizen finds an outlet for all his
patriotic enthusiasm in witnessing this
great war spectacle now being displayed
by Pain, the greatest of all the fire
works producers.
The state fair management has secur-
ed this magnificent attraction for it's
evening programme of entertainment, and
it will be shown each evening during the
fair.
The bay of Manila is spread out before
the spectator, with the Spanish fleet lying
at anchor beneath the frowning fortifi-
cations Of Cavite. The Olympia, with
Dewey on the bridge, is seen approaching
the Spanish vessels, followed by the Bal
timore. The fort opens fire and the Bal
timore replies. Then the action becomes
general. The Spanish vessels are seen in
action, and the American fleet return
terrible bombardment. AS the smoke
clears away the Spanish fleet lies utterly
ruined, and Old Glory floats above Ca
vite.
The latest Manhattan Beach effects
will be shown in the great display of fire
works that follows. The repeating shells,
producing five distinct explosions, first
red, then white and finally blue is one of
the novelties. There will be the laugh

of pyrotechnic mechanism, and scores of
other devices, forming the most magntfi-
cent programme of this character ever

LOCATION OF new HOME
COMMERCIAL CLUB DIVIDED OVER
ITS FUTURE SITE.

Condo Hamlin, who was twice president
of the Commercial club, was elected an
honorary member of that organization
yesterday afternoon at the regular semi
monthly meeting of the board of direc-
tors.
There was q very warm discussion be-
tween some of the directors over the To-
cation of a new club home. Two loca-
tons are under advisement and the club
is decidedly unsettled as to which of
these to accept. One is the northeast
corner of Cedar and Sixth streets, and
the other is In the Gernlania Life build
ing, where the club is presently located
The owners of the building propose ad-
ding two stories to their structure for
the exclusive use of the club, and there
are some members strongly in favor Of
accepting the proposition, while others
are equally as opposed.
The club will meet next Monday, at
which time it is expected the majority
of members will be in the city, and en-
deavor to arrive at definite decision
regarding the location question.
The club entertained the applications
for membership of Postmaster A. r. Me-
GIL and Fred G. Genge, of st. Anthony
Park.

The Douglas Shoe.

The best advertised and consequently
the best known shoe in the world today
is undoubtedly made by the w. L. Doug
las Shoe Co., of Brockton, Mass. The
one idea of this company has always
been to sell a shoe for $3.50 which equals
in every way the S. shoes of any other
concern. They are able to do this on ac-
count of there being no middle mans
profit, as the goods are sold direct from
the factory to the wearer. In 60 of the
principal cities of the country they have
their own retail stores. The goods are
made in all sizes and widths, and few
shoes equal them for style and dura-
bility.
The factory at Brockton employs over
LOO hands and all labor troubles are
settled by the state board of arbitration.
Nothing but union labor Is employed,
and pay about the best average wages of

mo, of course, the soldiers life in the
Philippines is not one to be particularly
envied. There are many severe hardships
to be contended with, and perhaps many
which soldier in the United States would
not have to face, but wnen you people in
Minnesota pity the poor volunteers at
Manila, because they are compelled to
defend their country amid such oppres-
sive heat you are wasting your sym
pathy. I'd rather stand two summers in
that country than half a one here, for it
never gets over 95 at the most"
This was the statement of a gentleman
who has been doing active service in the
Philippine Islands ever since the insurrec-
ton started there. He is back to this
country for a short stay, and was regis
tered at the Merchants yesterday. Asked
what he was doing in st. Paul, the SOL
der stated trying to keep cool, princi-
pally"
The gentlman was Capt. George F.
Young, chief of the scouts of the Thirty
sixth infantry, the regiment that was or
ganized In the islands when most of the
volunteers returned home, and which
later did valiant service under the leader
ship Of Col. j. Franklin Bell, who is now
a general in Uncle Sans service. This
regiment gained some little distinction be-
fore it ever set out for actual work. 1t

American soldiers, who believed 1t was

But, proudly remarked the young cap
tain, they don't call US that now We

Capt. Young is a son of Maj. Young, in
spector of revenue at Winnipeg, and he
was on his way home He went out from
Montana and served with a regiment from
that state until July, 1899, when the Thir-
ty-SiXth was organized
Speaking of the islanders who are still
causing trouble at Manila, Capt. Young
said he did not regard them as either a
particularly treacherous or desperate
class. They are highly educated and de-
cidedly well possessed under exciting cir
cumstances.
The captain is of the opinion that 1t
will require the presence of Uncle Sam s
soldiers in the islands for long time to
come if order or a semblance of it is
to be maintained and the rebeIlious spirit
among the outlaw natives ever con-
quered. He regards them as rather
formidable foe.

He declined to make any statements con-

He had no business transactions to make
