BURGLAR AW0KE HER
Miss Agnes Bowman Startled
From Sleep by Thief in
Her Room.

Miss Agnes Bowman was startled last
night from her slumbers BY unusual
noises in her room. Rising i'm bed, she
discovered a burglar in the room She
screamed and aroused other members of
the family, but the burglar was also
alarmed by the shouts and hastily took
his departure.
Entrance into the home of Miss Bow
man. at 43 East First South street, was
gained by the burglar by means of a
skeleton key, which opened the side
door. The door had been locked and the
screen door on the outside was also fas-
tened. The burglar cut through the
screen door and raised the latch. A kew
nad been lett on the inside of the door.
but that was pushed inside by the burglar
and the skeleton key then used He en-
tered the house and went through the
various rooms until he reached that oc-
Cupied by Miss Bowman.
A dresser in the room was being
searched for ValUables, when the in-
truder became reckless in his operations
and dropped something on the floor The
noise startled the young woman and her
screams aroused the members of the
household. The burglar dashed at
once from the room and was seen
speeding through the door which
police were at once notified of the crime
and officers were detailed on the case,
but no arrests have been made.
The crime was committed early this
morning and the occupants of the place
were unable 10 determine the amount that
was taken. A good description of the
burglar was given the officers and il is
believed that he is guilty Of the numerous
burglaries that have recently been COM
mitted, The police have used various
means TO effect his capture. but all Cf-
forts up to this time have been futile.

London. June 24-Of the scene in the
house of commons upon the announce
ment Of the illness Of King Edward. T..
r. O'COnnOr. Irish nationalist member
and president OF the Irish National
league. has written the following ac-
count for the Associated Press.
The wOrk-a-day world goes on i'm its
usual way. whatever tragedy be in the
air. and this is especially true of the
house of commons. which is even yet
bound dow with the iron rules that no
high destiny or national crisis can I'M
bind. And thus IL was today, when the
world Of London was shaken by the
announcement Of the postponement of
The coronation and the serious illness Of
the king, for which everybody was
waiting 10 see the ministers enter and
hear some news one way or the other.
"A clerk at q table read out the words

contradictions which exasperated and
finally grated on the nerves OF the
house. But as the clerk read st0lidly
on I'M a mufiled voice. the house began
10 interrupt him with discordant and
even indeCorous cries. and while the
house was thus descending into undig-
nified disorder. the ministers were still
absent from their places and the house
was still left without news. But in
spite of all this. and in spite of even
the discordant and grotesque shouts
there was that about the place which
showed that something was in the air

Topeka, Kan, June 24.-The Peoples

pleted the nomination of the following

The convention was the scene Of a
lively contest all day in regard to the
question of fusion with the Democrats.
There were a large number OF straight
out POpulists in the convention, who
wanted a ticket nominated without
reference to the wishes Of the Demo-
Gratis. While this element was numer-
Gus enough to put up a strong fight
II could not control the policy of the
convention. Fusion was accordingly
adopted. The above ticket was sub
mltted 10 the Democratic state cOnven-
ton late tonight and will became a
part Of the Democratic ticket The
Democrats in their convention in
Wichita last month nominated a COVER

those today chosen by the Populists

lied forces hope TO overcome the pro-
visions of the anti-fusion law.
Very turbulent scenes. marked the
progress of the meeting today. Sena-
tor Harris, the temporary chairman
delivered a keynote address this morn
ing. This session was peaceable, con-
sfsting only in the appointment Of the
usual committees. In the afternoon the
fusion crowd, after securing the or
ganizatiOn, attempted to railroad" the
proceedings in favor of amalgamation
With the Democrats. Then the battle
started. At numerous periods during
the AFTERNOON, the 700 or more dele
gates appeared TO all be talking at
once, so great was the confusion. The
anu-fusionists were more than deter
mined to defeat the designs Of the
other element.
On only one matter-the selection of
Senator Harris for temporary chair
lhan-was there anything like unanim-
ity displayed. Every other step the
convention took was contested vigor-
ously. The resolutions reafirm the
principles Of the last national platform.

There is considerable talk tonight 10
the effect that the anti-fusionists win

for the purpose of nominating another
ticket. The opposition to the fusion
idea is so pronounced that the leaders
Of the party would not be surprised to
see such a move on the part of the
boilers. Those opposing fusion saw

PARIS PAPERS SYMPATHETIC.

The Figaro says: "The illness of
King Edward only leaves room in Eng
lish hearts for anxious emotion. The
suffering sovereign is always a friend
to France, and we respectfully associ-
ate ourselves with the sadness of his
subjects and still more so with their
hopes"
The Gaulois says: Edward was the
king Of fashion before he became king
of England. The kingdom Of fashion
is the whole of Europe and Paris is as
capital. Edward knew his capital and
his kingdom well, and he was popular

Balfour's Statement.
The local petition was at last fin

a sOmbre and solemn stiffness on the

he had message TO deliver in refer

Today, however, nobody could deny
that for once Mr.. BalfOur seemed to be

break in his voice that he announced

Rumors That Trouble Was Not Ap-

London. June 25.-Rumors are afloat
this morning that although the necessi-
~ of surgery in his majesty's case was
obvious. the actual operation was mis-
directed. The symptoms Of great pain
and high temperature pointed to appen-
dicitis, but when the appendix was re-
vealed, it proved to be healthy and the
unexpected existence of a large abscess
in the cOecum was discovered.
Whether or not there is any fOUuda-

NEW JERSEY POLITICS,

We PREF ent to our readers, in this is.
sue, chapter from the history of Jer
sey politics. The State has a strong
delegation in Congress, and has been
able to capture the chairmanship of
some of the most imp 'rtant Committees
of the House of Representatives. She
has, however, sustained very severe
loss in the death of Senator William
j. SewolI, who, for a quarter of a CEN
tury was the leader OF his party in the
State. His mantle naturally falls UP
on the shoulders of his colleague in the
Senate, the Hon. John Kean of Union
county, who wears it with becoming
grace and dignity. Hon. Charles N.
Fowler, member of The Congression-
al delegation has recently been elevat-
ed to the Craftsmanship of the Com
mittee on Banking and Currency, and
since he is regarded as authority on
the money question in the House of
Representative es it is thought that he
will be able to bring forth some meas
ure calculated 20 place the currency
of the country on basis that cannot
be assailed by the advocates of free
silver, In whatever shape they may
come.
We are especially pleased to see
that the Jersey delegation has present
ed for the considera ton of President
Roosevelt the name of our friend, Prot.
Jesse Lawson who certainly deserves
recognition at the hands of the repub-
lican party.
