And thus it happened that was not

the floor of the balcony was settling at

very cleverly ordered the ushers to whis-

nod, rise and step quietly out, returning
a moment later to smilingly motion their
party out with them, and thus the weight

A DUCAL RECEPTION
His Grace of Cornwall and York Ar
 rives at Toronto.

Toronto. Oct. 10.-Toronto's reception of the duke and duchess of Cornwall and York today was a magnificent sue cess. unmarred by a single untowa:d incident. Their royal highnesses were met and welcomed by a citizens recep- tion committee and immediately drove to the city hall. where the official well municipal officials was held. The dis tinguished visitors were escorted by four troops of cavalry with d space of fifty yards between each, exclusive of advance and rear guards and mounted police. The procession was through streets gay with bunting and the royal colors. while the sidewalks, window $ and housetops were black with people. The ceremonies at the city hall were brief, consisting of d short address of welcome by the mayor and a response by the duke of Cornwall and York. Leaving the city hall. the royal party drove to Government house. where q state dinner was served.
 Arrangements on a most elaborate scale have been completed for the op- era prformance to be given in Massey hall tonight n honor of their royal highnesses. Upwards of S1O.0OO has been spent for decorations alone, while an equal amount will be paid in salar- ies to the distinguished artists on the programme. Calve will be the princi- pal artist.

GERMAN SAILORS ATTACKED
Venzuela Will Have to Apologize to
 the Fatherland.

Port of Spain, Trinidad. Oct. 10.- News comes from La Guayara. Vene- zuela, that last Sunday night fifty sailors of the German cruiser Veneta went ashore and became involved in a street row at Port Cabella with the local populace. The police sided with the populace and drove the Germans to the wharf, where they boarded the Ger man ship Valesia, moored there. In the meantime two petty officers of the Veneta. entirely sober. standing on the wharf, were attacked by the mob and injured. The wounded men were taken aboard the Valesia, and the mob at tackled the vessel with sticks and stones.
 Signals were made to the cruiser Vc- meta, which sent thirty armed men 10 protect the sailors. They boarded the Valesia. on the opposite side of the wharf. not landing on Venezuelan soil The mob attacked the Germans. and the marines fired a few shots to fright en the mob. This not having the de- sired effect, the officer in command of the armed force ordered the men to action, loading their guns with bullets. As soon as the mob saw this it dispers- ed It is believed that the trouble will lead to a demand for an apology from Venezuela.

CUT RATE DRUGGISTS.
The National Association Renewing Its
 Campaign Against Them.

Buffalo. Oct. 10-Whether or not the warfare against "cut rate" druggists shall be continued will be decided at the annual convention of the National Association of Retail Druggists which began in Buffalo today. That the cru sade has not met with the success ex- pected is admitted by members of the association, but they hope to devise some plan whereby better results may be obtained. Despite the fact that manufacturers, jobbers and retailers have combined to prevent the cutting of rates and have vigorously pursu Il the druggists who sold below what wa5 recognized as the standard price, the cut rate men have continued to do bus mess and apparently to flourish.
 Now the association plans to go about on new tack. It is proposed to meet the cut prices of the outsiders" until their stocks shall have been ex- hausted. whsn no more goods will be sold to the cut raters. While many favor this plan. other members of the association are fearful lest some of the jobbers break away from the agree ment and thereby enable the cut rate-s to obtain all the goods they desire

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE
The House Deputies Struggling With
 the Question.

San Francisco, Oct. 10.-The triennial convention of the Episcopal Church of America accomplished considerable routine work today, but made little progress toward disposing of the canon relating to marriage and divorce. which came up in the committee of the whole in the house of deputies. Popular interest in the subject is evinced by crowded galleries, d large majority of the spectators being women, nearly all of whom remained until the hour of adjournment.
 The discussion, however. was of a purely technical character. Quibbles over words and the punctuation of sections. in which there was little op- position, occupied most of the time. There seemed to be a determination to secure technical correctness in the text. It was also noticeable that many lawyers in the lay delegation are talk ing q keen interest in the subject The fourth and most important sec tion of the canon. which was adopted by the bishops, and practically forbids the remarriage of divorced persons, was not reached. The first two sec tions and all but the last paragra ph of section three. were adopted with but one slight change.
