chists. 4

PARIS, Aug. 2.-An attempt on the
, life Of the Shah OF Persia, Muzaffer- Ed
!; Din, was made this morning. but luck
h LILY It resulted in no harm to his ma
,jesty. A, man broke through lire OF
y policemen as the Shah was leaving his
: apartments and tried to mount the
royal carriage step. He held revolver
In his hand, but as soon as his Intention
was OWNED the police disarmed him
before he was able to fire.
AT the police station the man ex-
pressed regret that he had been unable
to carry out his Intentions. He said:
This is an affair between me and
my conscience"
It was Just quarter past nine o'clock
when the carriage OF the Shah emery
from the court OF the sovereisn's
2 palace. Seated In the carriage with the
Shah was his grand yizier. while oppo-
site him sat General Parent.
Sprang From His Automobile.
The carriage turned to the left, to-
wards the Avenue Bois de Boulogne.
It had proceeded but a few yards when
q man dressed as laborer. sprang
from between two automobiles where
he had been hidden. He broke through
. the line OF policemen, overturning bl.
cycle officer, and jumped upon the royal
carriage step. In one hand the man
had a cane. which he raised as though
( to strike, but this movement was only
intended to hide his real purpose, for
In the other hand he held a revolver.
The attempted assassination then came
to an end. for the Grand Vizier struck
the weapon from the mans hand, and
at the same time officers caught his arm
from behind and overpowered him. A
crowd Of FIVE hundred people who wit
messed the attempted assassination,
made a rush towards the would-be
murderer and tried to attack him. but
there were many police in the neighbor-
hood acting as guards Of the Shah ard
These prevented the mob from doing
3 violence 10 the miscrcant.
3 Shah Carried Out His Programme.
The prisoner was taken to the police
station.
This afternoon the Shah carried out
his programme for trip down the
Seine to Versailles.
The would-be assassin declined abso-
lutely TO give his name or nationality.
He speaks but little. and that with 4
southern accent. The police believe
him to be an Italian. He is about
twenty-six years of age.
Just before starting from the palace
the Shah received letter dated from.
Italy. signed with an italian name. but
posted in Paris. announcing TO him tina:
he would be assasslnated to-day. The
police believe the man who attacked
the Shah was not alone in his effort.
The whole of the police department is
aat work seeking for his accompllces.
Up TO o'clock this evening the in
vestigatiops of the police had not re-
suited in any developments tending to
establish the Identity OF the would-Sc
assassin or associat!ng any other with
his attempt When the officials tried to
interrogate the prisoner this afternoon
he maintained absolute silence.

Fault Finding in Married Life.

If a man finds that he has a wife i'll
adapted to wifely duties, does it follow
that the best thing he can do is to blurt
out. without form or ceremony, all the
criticisms and corrections which may oc-
cur to him in the many details of house
hold life? He would not dare to speak
with as little preface, apology or circum-

soften and wisely time his admonitions
to those he meets in the outer world, or
they will turn again and rend him. ="
and home. he can find fault without cere-
mony or softening. So he can; and he
can awake in the course of year or two
to find his wife a changed woman, and
his home uncomfortable. He may find, too,
that unceremonious fault finding is
game that two can play at, and that
woman can shoot her arrows with far
more precision and skill than a man.
But the fault lies not always on the side
of the husband. Quite as often is a
devoted. patient, good tempered man
haraSSed and hunted and baited by the
inconsistent fault finding of a wife whose
talent seems to be in the abil-
ity at first to discover and make mani
fest the weak point in anything. We

INsULTED MGR. cHAPEL1E.
Major Kirkman Promptly Brought to
Book For Discourtesy to the Able

An army officer in Manila writes to
his parents in Brooklyn that Major
Kirkman, United States volunteers,
captain of regulars, has been court
martialed for an alleged insult to Arch
bihsop Chapelle, papal ALLOCATE to the
Philippines, during a voyage from San
Francisco to Manila. The following ex-
tract is taken from the letter:
EN- route to Manila, Archbishop
Chapelle was insulted by Major Kirk
man, who was in command of the
transport. The major hung his blanket.
to be aired, so it covered the window
of the Archbishop's state room. Arch
bishop Chapelle sent his secretary to
the major to complain that he was I'M
able to air his state room. Major Kirk
man replied that he did not care Wheth-
er the state room was aired or not.
The archbishop endured the insult
without further protest during the trip
When the transport arrived in Manila
bay, General Otis sent his staff officer
out to meet it in a launch The officer
went on board and invited the arch
bishop to proceed by launch to the city.
This precedence astounded Kirkman,
who had not been aware that the du-
ties of the archbishop were official.
When Archbishop Chapelle was
leaving the transport he was asked by
several officers if he would report the
insult. He replied: Yes not that it
will benefit me, but to prevent like in
suits to those who come after me-"
Major Kirkman is now being court
martialed for the insult. The charge is
conduct unbecoming an officer If con-
victed he will be dismissed from the
army"

RIGA, and that He permit it not to con-
tinue further. They are all lis sons
and our brothers who are suffering in
the difficult trial of the anXieties and
enga gements of war. May the blessed
God look upon them with a fatherly
eye, eXtinguish their wrath and lead
their hearts to sentiments of reciprocal
moderation and concord, so that they
may come as soon as possible to a
loyal and solid friendship cOnsecrated
by the mutual kiss of peace and of
Justice
It is said that the failure of the re-
cent American overtures for a peace
full solution of the South African trou-
BILE made a painful impression at the
Vatican, where they were regarded as
about the only hope of avoiding fur
Their bloodshed.
Pope Leo, greatly disappointed on
learning of the failure, is reported to
have exclaimed, America is the only
power that has the courage to do it's
duty"
The semi-official Vatican organ, the
Voc eDella VeTita, commenting upon
the failure, says:
THE manner in which the British
government received the offer Of TTes-
ident Mckinley cannot but produce an
impression of eXecratiOn. Even those
who do not share IN the hatred or Eng
land must admit that the policy fol-
lowed by England's present ministers
may lead to most serious, even disas-
trous results
Father Louis Shoch. Prefect Apos-
tolic in the Transvaal, has telegraphed
to the Pope asking him to exert all his
influence to prevent the threatened de-
struction of Johannesburg. That city
is stronghold of Catholicism in South
Africa. 1t contains the Catholic hos
pital. orphan asylum and four schools.
The Pope was greatly moved by this
message. He is anxious to do all he
can to bring about the cessation of
hostilities, or to soften the asperities
of grim warfare, and therefore he pours
out his soul in earnest prayers and
breaches to men the gospel of the
brotherhood of man.
