He Left Paterson, N. J., for Italy Last
MAY.

Paterson, N. J., July S0.-The rumor
that Angelo Bressi who was arrested
yesterday at Monza, Italy, for the as
sassination of King Humbert had lived
here, caused quite a sensation in the
Italian quarter This afternoon after

years, had worked in the silk mills own

man. 1t is said he had a wife and Z
year-oId daughter who lived somewhere
in Hoboken and that he visited them
regularly every Sunday. Where thug

TREASURY WELL FILLED.
Money Available For Any Contin-
gencY That May Arise.

Washington, July 3O.-The present
condition of the national treasury is a
matter for congratulation among gov
eminent officials, in view of the posi-
bility that the Chinese troubles may be-
come so critical that extensive military
operations may be necessary.
Secretary Gage, after the cabinet
meeting this morning, said
1.-The government thus far has not
found it necessary to discuss it's finan-
cial ability to carry on the Chinese cam
paign. We have all the money which
will be needed for a long time The
funds now aVaila BILE would be sufficient
to support an additional army. of $4,000
men for a year, as well as keep up our
present military establishment"
The increase in the gold reserve has
been viewed with much satisfaction by
treasury officials. 1t is the stock of
gold held by a nation that forms its
monetary base in time of war. The Old

in case war should arise. This nation
has no fund of exactly that character
but it has a reserve of $3.50. 000 600 in
the treasury, which is held against the
most urgent needs. In addition there is
the sum OF $3.50, 900, 900 on hand now for
the redemption of outstanding gold GER
tificates, and $50, 000 600 in gold coin and
bullion in the general fund. The total
reaches $430, 000, 900, equal to a per capita
of about Sc in the yellow metal for ev-
cry person in the country.

MUCH UNCERTAINTY.
Hard to Tell What Will Happen in
Italy.

Paris. July 30-Many Italian deputies
and journalists are in Paris at this
time. The deputies are participating
in the interparliamentary congress on
arbitration and the journalists are here
to attend the International press con-
gress.
Signor Villa, president of the Italian
chamber of deputies was interviewed
today regarding the assassination of
King Humbert and said:
Il am unable at this time to predict
the result to Italy. 1 will leave Paris
tonight to preside over the extraordinary
session of the chamber of deputies
which has been called
Deputy De Nava said:
My colleagues and myself are sore
ly afflicted. The news of the assassina-
ton will cause a cruel sadness through
out Italy. King Humbert was beloved
by all our countrymen. He was more
a father to us than a sovereign. AS to
the future Italy is very conservative
The new king will be well received. He
is young man of fine character who
has studied conscientiously. He has
never taken any part in public affairs
but thanks to the thorough education he
has received, he will soon be in posi-
ton to work for the good of the coun-
try"

CHEAP LIVING.
University Danes Decide that Stu
dent and Wife Can Live on $500.

Chicago, July 30.-It is possible for
Chicago university student and his wife
to live on $500 for a whole college year
but it is not pleasant. This is the
conclusion that was reached by the
University of Chicago danes yesterday
in Foster Hall after a discussion fol-
lowing talk by Miss Katherine Davis
on How a Students Family May Live
on $500 a Year
.Why isn't the practical side of do
nestle economy, as you have shown 1t
to US today, taught in the university!
Miss Davis was asked.
It suppose she replied, because DR..
Harper is afraid of the epidemic OF
matrimOny-"
Perhaps I ought to state replied
Miss Davis, that in order to carry out
this experiment successfully 1t IS nee
essary to select your husband carefully
Some men will eat whatever is set be-
fore them without any question, ana
they are the ideal husbands for an I'M
dertaking of this sort.
Il have fixed on $780, said Miss Da-
Wis las the minimum amount for Whicn
a man and wife can live in this univer-
Sity for the college year-nine months
This does not include the tuition. one
third of this amount would be paid Tor
rent.
Another 500 would go for clothing
and incidentals. 1t is assumed that those
who come to the university have some
clothes to begin with, and 500 ought 10
suffice for keeping the wardrobe in re-
pair and adding sundry necessary ar
ticles to it. If the wife is clever with
her needle she can help a great deal by
making her own dresses.
1.-The third $780, Miss Davis contin-
ued, Il have estimated as the amount
necessary to provide the table.
Miss Davis gave a number of bills of
fare at 30 cents a day which actually
had been tested. This is one of them:
Breakfast-Fried cornmeal mush, with
syrup. baked potatoes.
Dinner-Potato soup, baked liver, boil
ed rice with cheese, bread.
Supper-Scalloped beef, with hominy,
bread and butter, stewed prunes.
This diet, Miss Davis said, could be
provided for two persons for 30 cents a
day.
How much would you add for child
ren?' asked one young matron with a
slight blush. Miss Davis looked blank.
Il hadn't thought of that" she said
''I was only figuring for two people"

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE
To Disrrove Facts. It's Decidedly
Easy to Verify Topeka Opinion.

Nothing by way of an introduction
could be added to the experience and
opinions given below, which could in
crease their value. Topeka people can
safely be left to draw their own con-
illusions based on such convincing proof
as this citizen offers. What is there
lacking in evidence like this to satisfy
a dyed-in- the wool doubling Thomas?

says During the three years that 1
suffered from kidney complaint the
grumbling aching pain across the small
of my back greatly inconvenienced me
when reaching and straining as is nee
essary to do in paper hanging. I also

HONORABLY SETTLED.
Tiresome Threats Against Members
of the City Council.

The city printing was fairly and
squarely settled in the committee meet
ing of the council some time ago. The
councilmen went into committee or
caucus, or whatever it may be called,
to settle that particular question and
no other. It was settled. 1t is not at
all likely that the members of the coun-
ell can be inundated into a violation
of their honorable agreement. An al
legged party organ, not being content
with being fairly beaten, is making all
sorts of threats and using all sorts of
influence to induce the councilmen to
stultify themselves. The theory seems
to be that the councilmen have no
minds of their own, and that they can
be threatened, bulldozed and bossed this
way and that. No amount of whining
about parliamentary practice can fool
anybody. A meeting of the councilmen
was held for a certain purpose, with a
certain understanding, and the action
of the meeting was to be conclusive.
That is all there is to it.

KISS AWAY ERRORS.
Says Christian Scientists frequently
Practice This Treatment.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 30.-"Kissing
away errors among women patients"
is a cure practiced by certain Camden
Christian Scientists, If the story told
by a devotee of that creed to a Cam
den lawyer is to be relied upon. The
man who made the statement called on
w. H. Boyle, who represents Miss Nc
Cullouch in her suit against the Rev.
Dr. George Tomplxins, the leader of
Camden Christian Scientists, for $4,000
obtained by him from her through an
irrevocable power of attorney.
ION certain women patients it is nee
essary to kiss away errors and until
the osculatory service is done the treat
ment is worth nothing" the devotee ex-
planned
He told this among other funny Incl
dents of faith cure, and he believed in
their efficacy. TompkinS has been called
away to Boston. The Christian Scien-
lists say he has been summoned there
by the mother church to explain the Nc
CullOuch case and other transactions
connected with his work in Camden.
A day or two ago, it is said, COM
mittee of local Christian Scientists WIS.,
tied Miss MCCULLOUGH and requested
that she sign a paper, Withdrawing her
suit against TompkinS. 1t is stated that
Miss MCCULLOUGH was informed that
TOmpkins had withdrawn his suit
against the man who he says melted
Miss MCCULLOUGH to sue him and he ask
ed a corresponding favor from her. Miss
MCCULLOUGH replied that she had in
structed her attorney to enter suit for
the recovery of her money, and she
was informed by Boyle that her money
was returned

SCHEME TO ELECT GOMEZ.
Cuban Conservatives Alarmed by the
Revolutionary Move

Havana, July 30.-1he campaign for
members of the constitutional conven-
ton is being run on strict party lines,
especially in Havana, where the par
ties are better organized than they are
in the other parts of the island. The
Nationals are attempting to extend
their influence throughout the provinces
and the Democratic Union is also ar
ganizing. All the parties maintain that
the best men should be elected, but 1t
is believed that when the time for vot-
ing comes personalities and party feel
ing will count for everything, as they
did in the municipal elections
The Nationals are looking forward to
the election that will be held subsequent
to the constitutional convention, for the
purpose Of forming a government. If
they can win a majority of the consd-
tutional convention they think they can
elect Maxine Gomez president of the
republic. The Conservatives are some
what alarmed at the idea of the revo-
that the Conservative element, which
has heretofore been inactive, will now
make a struggle.
La Nacion, the Conservative organ
asks that more members be elected to
the convention; perhaps fifty, in order
to give the Conservatives a fair repre-
sentation. 1t also asks that the election
boards be composed of nominees from
the various parties, saying that If the
mayors name the boards they will all
be revolutionary, owing to the almost
entire triumph of that element in the
recent elections. 1t further asks for
minority representation.
La Discucion says that the decree re-
garding the convention is one of the
most important documents in the his
tory of Cuba. 1t should convince every
one of the honest intentions of the
United States. 1t adds that the num-
should be larger, in order to allow all
shades of opinion to be represented.

WAR IN CHINATOWN.
Consul at Frisco and Editor of Chinese
Paper at Dagger's Points.

San Francisco, July 30.-A fierce dis
pute has broken out in Chinatown be-
tween Ho Vow, the Chinese consul gem
eral, and Tonk Chong, editor OF the Chi
nese World and of the Oriental and Oc-
cidental Press, one of the leaders of the
Reform association, which seeks to raise
an army and overthrow the Empress
Dowager and restore the Emperor
Kwang Hsu. to the throne.
The editor devoted three pages of his
American paper yesterday to a scorching
of the consul general, and an alleged ex-
posture of his weakness and deception.
The consul general retaliateS with the
explanation that the editor is leading a
revolutionary party, which has members
in China tOwn,a of whom he has watch
ed by spies and detectives.
Referring to a charge of Chong that
Ho Vow had caused his (Chong's) rel
atives in China to be imprisoned, Ho
Vow said:
His relatives were cast into prison
simply because they were in league with
him to overthrow the present dynasty.
We had documentary proof evidence
against them showing that they were in
a tra1torouS league. That any women
We're imprisoned do not believe.
"A few months ago a young man named
Homer Lee, a graduate of the Stanford
University. started for China, presumably
TO lead the revolutionary party. Docu-
ments were discovered to prove his mis-
sion and to connect him with this reform
association. On July II the very next
steamer after the one that had carried
TINS young american, Homer Lee, took
Wei, is head of the revolution, away from
Honolulu, on his way to China.
The plan of Homer Lee and his Chin
csc schemers to raise an army of
900 indictments in the southery treaty
ports of the empire and march to Pekin.
1t was not long ago that we succeeded
in intercepting at Canton more than 1000
uniforms intended for this reform army
They had been manufactured in the
Straits settlements and shipped from Sim
gapore.
To Illustrate the absurdity of the
claims that this is purely a patriotic re-
form movement. it is necessary to refer
to but one among many of the clauses in
their proclamation. 1t proclaims that any
one contributing 800 to the reform assoc
citation fund shall be made a general. any
contributing $1,000 shall be made a
viceroy and any one giving $4,000 shall be
made prince of the royal blood"
