UNIVERSALLY POPULAR.
Death OF Representative Cummings
Caused Deep, Genuine Sorrow.

SdeoSa S~Sft
Washington, May. 3.-The death of
Representative Cummings, of New
ork. in Baltimore last night, caused
general regret and sorrow in the house
today. Above the hall the flag fiut-
tered at half mast and on the floor the
old familiar desk on the center aisle
near the front row which Mr.. Cum
mings occupied for so many years, was
draped in black and covered with a
profusion of purple orchids and spring
flowers. Mr.. Cummings was one OF
the most universally popular members
of the house, and his death seemed to
come as a personal loss to all mem
bers. An order was made to give a
day to claims after the disposition of
the statehood bill and then Mr.. Payne,
OF New York, dean of the delegation,
and floor leader of the majority, arose
and in simple, but BETTING words,
made the announcement of Mr.. Cum
mlngs' death.
After the adoption of resolutions
and the appointment of committee
TO attend the funeral. the house ad-
iourned as further mark OF respect
to Mr.. Cummings.
At 2:45 p. m, the senate adjourned
out of respect 10 the late Representa-
tive Cummings.

ultimatum has not been answered;
that his messenger has not returned
and the American outpost was fired
upon this morning. The troops ad-
vanced and shelled the h.oro fort, but
did not capture 1t until the infantry
reached the ditch. This fort is strong
and well defended by 300 men. Fort
Panda Padto was then surrounded and
heavily shelleed. Heavy firing is con-
tinued as this dispatch is sent. Gen.

slightly wounded and twenty enlisted

Los Angeles, CAL, May 3.-Today
was record breaker for the women's s
convention as to sessions, there being
seven. At Simpsons auditorium Miss
Margaret Evans presided over the edu-
cational session. This was followed
by ,an industrial session with Mrs.
Florence Kelley, of New York, as
chairman. The chief speaker was Miss
Jane Adams, of Hull House, Chicago,
on THE Social Waste of Child Labor"
Miss Adams made a plea for the uni
formity of child labor laws in all states
and suggested tins as an admirable
work for the club women to undertake.
Two sessions on reciprocity and art
will be held this afternoon in the Jew
ish synagogue simultaneously with
two other sessions at Simpsons audi
torium on club houses and the press.
The strain has been removed from
the political situation at the club wo-
mems convention by the withdrawal
of Mrs. Robert j. Burdette from the
presidential race. In letter which
she issued to the press she gave her
support to Mrs. .Denison, so the ticket.
unless a dark horse appears, promises
to stand:
Mrs Denison, president; Mrs. Bur
dette, first vice president. and Mrs.
Buckwalter, second vice president. II
is not unlikely, moreover, that Mrs.
Emma Van Vrehlan, of Iowa, will be
returned to the treasurership and
there is a movement to make Mrs.
John Sherman, of Chicago, recording
secretary.
AS Texas is pushing forward rapidly
to the front, it is believed that state
should be represented on the board of
directors.
The peculiarly of this convention
is there is comparatively little wire
pulling and caucusing. the desires for
the burdens of Office being on the de-
crease. There is deal more lounging
around the hotel corridors and driving
about town, though doubtless the i'm
portant sessions which will begin Mon
day will be a signal for activity.

EXQUISITE EVENING.
The Familiar Old Songs Were Sung
Last Night.

Last Night.
The ballad concert at the Congrega-
tional church last night was one OF the
seasons greatest musical treats. The
church was crowded with a most ap-
preciative audience, which thoroughly
enjoyed the ever popular old favorites.
It was Mrs. Mabel Stevens-H -Himoe
who arranged the concert and II was
most delightful. Nearly every number
was encored. The orchestra, which
was arranged by L. l.. Washburn, cap
tured the audience with a melody OF
national airs, and in spite of disin-
clination to repeat 1t, was forced to
give another number. Another prime
favorite was quartet composed or
Ethan Allen unit, Duncan Bell, Harry
Bullard and G. e. Burg. Their fine
voices blend with unusual sweetness
and their singing of "Old Kentucky
Home"was particularly enjoyed. Man
dy Lee" was given as encore. Another
quartette which was greatly enjoyed
was one composed of Miss Fitch. Mrs.
z. l.. Washburn, Mr.. Bell and Mr..
Stone, which sang Sweet and Low.
The vocal soloists were Miss Anderson
who sang "Going to Market" and as an
encore gave Douglass" Ben Bolt
was sang by Miss Mabel Fitch and as
an encore she gave Annie Larrie."
The old Scotch ballad MARY o Argyll
was finely rendered by Duncan Bell,
and for an encore "The Low Backed
Chair" an Irish song, was given Mr..
Hunt never sang more delightIully
than in giving MY Lady's Bower" The
instrumental numbers were a cornet
solo by George Leo Patterson, violin
solo by Bruno Dieckmann and bril-
liant piano duett by Miss Lodge and
Miss Everitt.
