STIRRED ASCETIC MONKS
TRAPPIsT MONASTERY AT GETHSE-
NAME, KY, INVADED BY
WOMEN

GETHSEMANE, KY, June 5.-When
Mrs. James c. w. Beckham, wife of the
governor of Kentucky, passed the por-
tails Of the famous Trappist monastery
of Gethsemane, today, she carried with
her the distinction of being the second
woman who has ever been permitted to
enter the cloisters.
The ban Of perpetual silence of the
brothers was temporarily lifted by the
abbot, and they were permitted to ex-
press their pleasure at meeting the ex-
ecutlve. After an inspection of the prem
ises the party was rendered a dinner by
Father Obrecht.
The Trappist order is one of the most
austere of institutions. The rules of the
order are that none but the wife Of the
reisning king or prince shall have the
privilege of admission, and this rule has
been interpreted to apply in this country
to the president and governors. The wife
of ex-Gov. Proctor Knott was the first
woman to visit the monastery. Several
ladies in the governors party today were
admitted as part Of Mrs. Beckharn' s
suite.

that the president would be able TO keep

SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT
BUT CONDITION OF Mrs. MKINLEY
is VERY SERIOUS.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The bright
est bulletin ISSUED by the attending
physicians regarding Mrs. McKinley's s
condition, since her return to Washing
ton, was given out today after their
consultation. It reported that her gen
eral condition" was somewhat improved.
but 1t was remarked that it held out
nothing definite for the future Mrs
Mckinley has been unable as yet to
take solid food, although It has not
been necessary to resort to powerful
heart stlmulants Like nitroglycerine since
her return TO Washington. Brandy is
administered. Raw eggs and chicken
broth are her food. After the phys clans
had gone this morning. the president, ac-
companied by Representative Taylor, Of
Ohio, who represents Mr.. McKinley's s
home district In the lower house, went
out for a stroll.
Dr. RKey made his usual nightly visit
to the White house shortly after o'clock
and remained about an hour and a half
On leaving, he said:
Mrs. Mckinley is resting very comfor-
tably now. She has gained a little this
evening, but there is no marked change
She is doing very we'll"
While the Improvement In Mrs. McKin-
ley's condition Is slight, the fact that
there has been no setback during the
day, but, on the contrary, a very little
gain, was very gratifying to the White
household and the president expressed his
pleasure several times during the evening
In view, however of the gravity of tho
condition of the stricken mistress of the
White house too much significance is
not attached to the slight Improvement
Shown. Both ups and downs have
marked the progress Of her Illness. and
it is realized that whatever gain or Inn
pTovement Is shown may prove but tenn
porary. For this reason the bulletins
as officially announced by the physicians
once a day refer to the gain in condition
in very guarded language.
President Mckinley is spending a large
part Of his time at his wife's bedside. He
was out driving for an hour, however,
just before supper, with L. L. Miller, Of
Canton, Ohio, and returned refreshed.
With the exception of the time spent in
the early evening with a few callers and
a short time in the cabinet room about
II o'clock, most Of the evening was spent
within call Of his wife. There was a
deluge of callers who gave expression
to their sympathy.

Cial. arrangements have been completed
for another important gathering to be
held in Sioux Falls in the near future,
that of the annual campmeeting and
conference Of the Seventh Day Adventizts
of North and South Dakota, to commence
on the 18th inst and continue until the
oath. 1t is expected that not less than
eight hundred persons will attend the con-
ference and campmeeting. Many viii
drive distances of from 100 to $50 miles
in order to be present. Those attend
Ing will camp on Seney island, and q
sufficient number of tents will be pro-
Vided for them. This is the third succ S.
sive year that the conference and camp
meeting has been held in Sioux Falls
Many prominent Adventists viii be
present. Among the more prominent
who have signiied their intention of be-
ing here are A. G.. Daniels, of Battle
Creek, Mich, who is chairman of the
general conference; w. w. Prescott, of
London, Eng; c. w. Flaiz, of Minnesota;
F. II. Westphal, until recently of South
America; Louis Johnson, the leading
Scandinavian minister, who has charge
of the Scandinavian work of the Advent
lists in the Northwest, and n. w Alice,
Of Tennessee. w. II. Millman, elder Of
the Dakota conference, lives in Sioux
Falls, and will, of course, be present dur
ing the conference and campmeeting
The First Seventh Day Adventist
church in Dakota was organized in 1874.
in 1879 the work had grown sufficiently
so that a conference could be organized,
and at the first general meeting al Sioux
Falls this was accomplished. From the
small beginning in 1874 the work has de-
Veloped until at the presen time the
church has membership of nearly LOO,
with twenty-seven regularly appointed
laborers, who are supported by the Bible
system Of tithing. The Sabbath School
association of the church was organized
in 1880 At the present time there are

VERDICT FOR MRS. EDDY
MRS. WOODBURY. FAILS TO PROVE
ALLEGED LIBEL.

BOSTON, June ST have examined
this libel with great care both while the
arguments were going on and during the
trial and think the plaintiff has sustained
her case, as I had already intimated on
the matter Of publication. AS regards
the publication in the church, there Is
no evidence that anyone understood the
alleged libel as applying to the plaintiff,
so that she could not recover damages
upon that count, because she had shown
no injury from it.
Taking the libel itself see nothing
which can in any way be said to IN
dicate the plaintiff in the first part Of the
libel. The only thing in the libel, 1t seems
to me, which can by any reasonable in
depreciation be said to serve as means
of Identification are the words widow
and 'widowhood,' which occurs In the
latter part of the message. I have come
10 the conclusion that even that reference
does not absolutely identify the plaintiff,
and it seems to me that the plaintiff has
not made out q case here which can let
go to the jury. I shall therefore be oblig
ed to order verdict for the defendant"
With these words in the superior court
Judge Charles U. Bell this afternoon
brought to a sudden and unexpected end
the famous S150000 libel suit brought by
Mrs. Josephine Curtis Woodbury., Of Bos-
ton, against Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, of
Concord, n. H, the founder and present
head Of the Christian Science church. A
few minutes later a jury, which had been
excluded while arguments were being
made, was summoned into the court
room. After explaining the cause for
this course, Judge Bell ordered the jury
to find for the defendant, which It ac-
cordingly did in the usual form. Counsel
for Mrs. Woodbury. hled exceptions on all
the questions passed upon. They have
not decided upon a definite course OF
action, but authorized It to be stated that
they expect to carry the case to the su-
preme court.

MAITRE LABORI IS
HONORED IN ENGLAND
ED AN ENTHUSIASTIC RECEP-
TION IN LONDON.

LONDON, June 5.-Maitre Labori the
distinguished French advocate, speaking
in a strange tongue, English, held the
leaders of the British bench and bar to-
night spellbound by his eloquence. More
than 500 of Great Britain's most EN- nent
jurists. including the lord high chancel-
lor, all the leading members Of the cabi-
net, the justices of the high court Of
judicature and many other distinguished
persons did honor to the attorney Of
Dreyfus and paid him a tribute such as
was never before rendered in Great Brit
ain to a Frenchman. The occasion was
the annual dinner of the Hardwick So
ciety. Lord Halsbury, SIR Edward Car
son, the solicitor general; Sir Robert
Findlay, the attorney general; Sir Francis
Jeune, president of the probate. divorce
and admiralty division; Lord Morris, Sir
Edward Clarke and other prom nent men,
taking care to refer to M Labori as the
representative Of the bar of great
friendly nation, praised his splendid cour-
age, indomitable persistency and invalu-
able services to the cause of justice.
Overcome with emotion Maitre Laborl
wiped the tears from his eyes. Nine
Labori, who is an Englishwoman, and
who sat In the gallery among a hundred
Of her kinswomen, was no less affected
as she heard her husband honored in
such an exceptional manner For nearly
five minutes deafening din made NJ.
Labori quite inaudible Handkerchiefs
were waved and Hes Jolly Good Eel
low was sung. Then with a marvel
ously good control of English he modestly
but graphically told of the crisis in the
French nation. Every point was ap-
plauded, and his splendid peroration,
which was delivered in his native
French, was followed by scenes of en-
thusiasm, such as have seldom been wit
messed at a banquet in this country.
After the formal ceremonies were con-
cluded he was literally mobbed by ad-
mirers.

HEIRS OF MURDERED RICE.
Iowa Women Claim to BE Sisters of
Dead NIiIIinnnira

CHARLES CITY Iowa, June 5.-Nrs.
Marie Schuler, of Des Moines, and Mrs.
Fannie Partlow, of Grinnell, sisters of
the dead New Yorker, Rice, who it is
suppOsted was murdered by Attorney
Patrick, assisted by Rice's valet, Charles
Jones, are trying to get possession of
the Rice millions, as they are his legal
heirs.
Both the sisters are over seventy-five
years old and widows Their lives have
been spent in hard labor, and the pros
pect of living in affiuence and almost
rolling in wealth is almost too much for
their comprehension. Their identification
of their brother as the murdered mil
lionaire was through pictures in the
newspapers.
Mrs. Schuler In her affidavit says her
father was Peter Rice, a French Can
adian, and that she was born in Penn
sylvania, as was her brother. There
were eleven children when the family
moved to Minnesota, where William lived
until he was twenty-one. She was able
to describe in detail several scars on his
body, and thinks she will have no
trouble to prove her relationship.
AS soon as matters are ready the two
women, with their attorney, will leave
for New York to press their claim.

SELECT DESIGN FOR CRUISER.

) SIOUX FALLS, S. D., June 5.-(spe-
cial.)-The State Historical society has
taken hold of the matter of selecting a
design for the new cruiser South Dakota,
which is to be constructed by the gov
ernment. AS the result Of correspond

society have just been officially informed
that it is the intention OF the govern
ment to have the new cruiser launched
Oct. /, 1902. and ready for sea JSn. l,
1901.
Fred Gebhard, the prominent New
Yorker, who has taken up his residence
in Sioux Falls, is taking an active in
terest in local sporting affairs, and
doubtless does not intend that time shall
hang heavily on his hands. A few weeks
ago he Joined the local gun club, and
now he has become a member Of the
leading golf club of this part Of the state.

fairs, he is having an elegant and %>st-
ly cup manufactured as a prize for the
member of the gun club who wins it by
his superior craftsmanship. He will also
put up some prizes for the golf players.
