Reflection of a Bachelor

Every man has some woman
who loves him more than lie

A man has got to love the

Every woman has sneaking
idea that if she had been Eve
in the Graden of Eden she
would have been good.
No woma n has any right to
disbelieve her husband unless
she is moftally sure he can
prove that he isn't lying.

CRISIS
IN ISLAND EMPIRE
Japanese Cabinet Resigns In
a Body.
THE WORK OF A MARPLoT

Was Persona Non Grata TO Other
Members. and Upon His Refusal to
Resign the Others Did-Marquis Ito
to the Rescue.
YOKOHAMA. May 15.-The announce
ment was made this morning that the
entire cabinet resigned yesterday, and
the empire is again in the throes of a
ministerial earthquake.
The cause of the present trouble is pc.
culiar, it being occasioned by a recalci-
trant member of the cabinet, Count
Matanabe, minister of finance. who has
become persona non grata to the others
and who has refused to resign. The
other members of the cabinet therefore
resigned.
The upshot probably will be that af-
ter Intellectual efforts to get some other
leader to form a cabinet, Marquis Ito
will come into the field again as the
only possibility and reappoint the old
cabinet, with the exception of the mar
plot viscount.
The strain put upon Marquis Ito,
veteran though he is, is almost too
much for one man, as upon him devel-
ops the duty of leader of the govern
ment and of a most turbulent and un-
manageable political party.
The experiment of party now being
tried is interesting enough, but its sue.
cess is anything but f1attering.

PRESIDENTIAL PARTY
ON PACIFIC COAST
Improvement Reported In
Mrs. McKinley's Condition.
PROGRAM OF PRESIDENT

Will Attend commencement Exer-
cises at Stanford University-Will
Not Return East Until His Wife Is
Able to Accompany Him.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-President
Mckinley is desirous of going through
with the set program, but may not be
able to do so. It all depends upon Mrs.
McKinley's condition, which is this
morning announced as much improved.
This morning, however, the president
will unveil the Donahue fountain at
Market and Battery streets and then
cross the bay on the tug Golden Gate.
He will attend the commencement exer-
cises at Stanford university and possibly
return TO his temporary home at once.
The president is scheduled to leave
San Francisco on next Monday. 1t is
not unlikely he may remain some weeks.
Until Mrs. Mckinley is fully recovered
from her illness, DR.. Rixey directs that
she be not disturbed. 1t is said that the
president will not go east until his wife
is able to accompany him.
Illness In Mr.. Longs Family.
Secretary of the Navy Long may
leave the presidential party and depart
for the east at any moment. He has re-
ceived word that his daughter, who has
been living in Colorado Springs for
over year for her health, is danger
ously i'll. Secretary Long will be ac-
companied on the trip by Mrs. Long
and son of tender years. The boy
was also taken i'll yesterday at the Pal
ace hotel, where the Longs are staying,
and the physicians called in ordered the
child's retirement to bed at once. The
secretary is much worried over the i'll
ness in his family, and it is said he is
not inclined to continue his trip.
No Truth In Rumor.
Telegraphic reports having been re-
ceived of a rumor in the east that Post
master General Charles Emory Smith
comtemplates retiring from the cabinet
and that H. Clay Evans, United States
commissioner of pensions, is scheduled
to succeed him, the postmaster general
was asked concerning the truth of the
rumor. There is no truth in the re-
port, he said. 'Ihave not even consld-
cred such a step l think it probable
the report rose from the fact that upon
the expiration of the lease upon the house

Walk Out.
TAMPA, Fla. May 15.-Six thousand
cigarmakers are on strike here this
morning. The bridge which connected
the city with the western suburb has
been broken for two days, and the men
had to be ferried across the river. This
was slow and unsatisfactory. This
morning it was decided that they
strike, to force the manufacturers to
bring pressure to bear for the repair Of
the bridge. All the men employed on
the western side of the river struck and
marched across other bridges and held a
mass meeting in the heart of the city.
Two thousand men then swarmed
throughout the remainder Of the city
and demanded that men employed ia
other cigar factories quit work. Every
man walked out, and as each factory
was emptied they joined the mob, which
mum bered 5000 at noon.
Manufacturers will lose thousands Of
dollars on tobacco. which was already
prepared for today's work.

The Strike Situation Remains

the Mob and Clash Seemed Immi-
nent, But the Rioters Were Dis

ALBANY, May 10 The Traction street
car strike was productive of no serious
disorder during the night. The COM
pany made no further effort to operate
cars or repair its lines, and will proba.
bly, remain inactive until the military
force called by the state is in a position
to afford the fullest protection. At this
time the breach is as wide as ever. The
establishment of the military patrol be-
gan shortly after midnight, when three
companies of the Tenth battalion were
quietly and quickly dispatched from the
Washington avenue armory. One COM
pany was ordered to the Traction pow
erhouse, another to the upper town barn
and the third to the northern barn.
Soldiers Stoned.
When Company d, enroute to the up
town barn, swung into Quail street a
jeering crowd fell in on its fanks and
rear and followed it down to the barn.
AS it halted III front of the barn a
shower of rocks and other missiles fell
among the men. 1t was thought for a
time that there would be clash, but
the police drove the crowd back and the
soldiers made no menacing movement.
The police withdrew as soon as the
National &Suard picket line was estab.
lished around the Traction company's
plant, and as the night wore on the
crowd melted away. AS the new day
came the crowd reassembled and at day
light it numbered about 500. Fences
kept the street clear.
The women were particularly vindic
tive and hoWled out their choicest cpl
thets at the non-union men who showed
themselves at the upper windows of the
barn.
Almost Tragedy.
The first detachment of the Twenty
third infantry arrived here at 7:45 this
morning, and it's opening part in this
great industrial struggle came near be-
ing a tragedy. Just after their train
had crossed the New York Central
bridge spanning the Hudson, it struck
a misplaced switch. The powerful mo-
gul engine jumped the track and went
tumbling over on its side. None of the

train. There were 500 men in the de-
tachment, under Lieutenant Colonel
Brady.
Military Reinforcements.
The entire Second regiment, under
command of Colonel Lloyd of Troy, and
including 1000 men from Troy, Oohoes,
Hoosic Falls, Schenectady and Saratoga,
have been ordered to report i'll this city
this afternoon. This will make the to-
tai military strength about 1900.
The first act of the military forces
was taken shortly after 10 o'clock, when
the Third signal corps, mounted, and
detachment of mounted police cleared
the streets around the Quail street barn.
