NEW RELIGIOUS SECT
HUNGARIAN ELoPERs FOUND IT
Priest of Romantic Bent Who Could
Not Resist the Appeals of a
=, .; Pretty Nun.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago. March 22.-Croatians in Chi
cago are anxiously awaiting the arrival
of Father Barbics and Sister Vilanda, who
deserted the Catholic convent in Agram,
Hungary, and eloped to America to found
a new religious sect. They are supposed
to be on their way to this city. The elop-
ment OF the priest and the nun was ro-
mantle in the extreme and caused much
comment in Croatia Father Barbics,
according to reports received here, began
his church career as a priest of the Greek
church, but was later converted to the
UNIVERSAL Catholic church, which is a
broad type Of the Roman Catholic faith.
After short service in this church he be-
came Roman Catholic priest and was
given charge of a large convent and
church in Agram, the caIbtal city of Gro
tia. -.-,.a .-~.. ... >'a
For several years he was in charge OF
the Agram convent. He was trusted i'm
plicitly with the care and custody of all
the church properties connected with the
convent and made the acquaintance Of Sis
ter Vilanda, pretty nun of good family,
who had been driven :. to seclude herself
in the cloister, it was said, on account of
failure in an early love affair with noble
young Crotian. Her affection for the
priest became. so great that one day she
fell on her knees at his feet and declared
that she would kill herself if he did not
take her from the convent and marry her.
Father Barbics was of a romantic nature
and agreed, and the elopment followed. .

ATTACKING The LAW
Nebraska Populists and the Aus
tralian Ballot System.
SECRECY VIOLATED, THEY SAY
tNNhat Party Do You Wish to Amli-
ate Whit" Is the Fly In
the Ointment.

Special to The Journal.
Lincoln, & Neb., March 22.-Nebraska
populists have made savage legal attack
on the Australian ballot law, the objec-
ton being directed at that portion of the
system which makes it mandatory for the
election boards in cities to find out the
party utilization when the voters register.
Chairman De France of the populist state
central committee has asked the district
court for an injunction directing the
registration boards not to make the re-
quirement. temporary restraining
order has been granted pending further
investigation Of the matter. sE
The populists aver that answering the
question, What party do you wish to
affiliate, with ?"t violates the secrecy OF
the ballot and permits fraud and coercion.
Under the state constitution, the question
is Illegal, they argue. y t
Should the effort to annul the law be
successful, the Lincoln system Of primary
nominations would be made impossible.
At present city officials are nominated
directly by the people. Populists and
democrats, who are sadly in the minority,
look askance at the plan and favor the
city conventions. At the primaries only
the registered party members can vote.
Hence the dissatisfaction of the populists.

RETURNS FROM CUBA
Ex-Governor John Miller on Con-

ANNEXATION IS ALMOST CERTAIN
Leading Classes would welcome II

Special to The Journal

Special to The Journal.
Grand Forks, N. d.. March .22.-Ex- Gov
ernor John Miller, who is at the head
of the John Miller Grain company of Du-
luth, has just returned from a trip to
Cuba and says:
I was very much pleased with the climate
of Havana. 1t was about like our midsum-
mer, with trees and flowers all in blossom
and people, clad In their light summer
clothing. Under the present management Ha-
vana is about the cleanes: city ever saw.
While we were not able to talk Spanish, we
were able to get about quite comfortably
as we always found someone who could talk
and understand English
K | am convinced that Cuban industrial con-
ditions have been affected rather adversely
I by the results of the Spanish American war.
i was told by large manufacturers OF tobacco
that their output was not more than half
of what 1t was before the war, and the sugar
and other agricultural Industries are in an
unsatisfactory condition, owing, in meas
ure, to the high duties imposed by the United
States, Which leave them no market in which
TO dispose of their products at a profit.
Added to that is the feeling of uncertainty as
to the political future of the island which
has much to do with retarding development
and. attracting American capital. There
seemed to be good deal of uncertainty
among the most intelligent as to what would
be the result of the attempt of Cuba to
govern herself: There are many who predict
there Will be an insurrection in less than
six months. 1t can be readily understood
how all this uncertainty has a tendency to
retard new enterprises ana the investment
of American capital
l learned that there has been an increase
of wages paid laborers since the close of the
war, and also believe that there is a grow
ing feeling of friendliness towards the United
States. Especially is this true Of the larger
business interests. The aristocracy of Havana
is Spanish and large per cent of the bust
ness is carried on by Spaniards, and while
they have no very great love for the United
States 1 am sure the majority of them would
ment than to take the chances of that OF
was more assurance of a stable government
cannot help but believe that the ultimate
outcome of our Cuban relations will be an
nexation and this is the growing feeling
in Havana.
It is evident that there is a friendly feeling
growing daily for the United States.s Fina
annexation will be brought about by one oil
two causes. Should it be found that Cuba
is able to maintain peace and order and tc
negotiate treaty with our government tina
will enable 1t to find an outlet for it's prod.
ucts, Americans and American capital are
going to invade the island. On the Other
hand, should she be unable to give the island
peace and quiet, condition of continual
strife would prevail, and then l think this
government would be justified in taking some
steps to control .., ....i

ONE V0MAu'S WAY
OF Kidding HERSELF OF TROUBLE
AND SECURING HAPPINESS.
For Years She Was In Misery Till
Finally She Determined to BE
Happy Again-How She
Succeeded.

story of suffering that rings true IN
the heart Of many woman is that OF
Mrs. Joseph Adams, the wife Of retired
farmer who lives at No. 303 Third street,
Webster City, Iowa. Her trouble and how
she secured happiness at last Is best told
in her own words.
For three or four years. she says, 81

from cramps in my stomach. l could eat
hardly anything, for nothing seemed to
agree with me. l would grow faint and
suffer very much with cramps every little
while and after these attacks l would be
very weak. I had doctor twice week
for about two years but he couldn't cure
me. I would be in bed for day or so,
then up for day, and then down, and SO
it would CO.. 49,.
tBut now I am we'll and, for woman
of ~ years., am pretty strong. 4 had

years when, saw an advertisement in the
paper telling about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. 1 decided to try
this medicine and felt relief with the
taking of the first box. l took three
boxes in all and now l don't need to take
any medicine, for I am perfectly we'll. II
is all due to Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People,
These pills will not only cure cases
similar to that of Mrs. Adams, but con-
tanning as they do, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and rest ore shattered nerves,
they have proved efficacious in wide
range of diseases. They are an unfailing
specific for such diseases as locomotor
ataxia, partial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance,
seiatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, the after effects of the grip,
palpitation Of the heart, pale and sallow
compilations and all forms of weakness
either In male or female.
There are many limitations of DR.. Will.
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People but
none of them possess the wonderful power
of the genuine-the power that cures
when ordinary medicines fail. Do not let
your dealer sell you an inferior prepare
ton. If you have difficulty in getting the
genuine near home you can get six fifty
cent boxes by mail, postage paid, by send

Contempt and Perjury Charges
Hanging Over Jurist.
MINNIE HEALY CASE IN MONTANA
Suspend the Judge-Lnte
Proceedings.

Special to The Journal
Helena, Mont, March 22.-The supreme
court has again been asked to mandamus
Judge 3. w. Harvey into ruling upon
the motion for a new trial in the Minnie
Healy case. Harvey ruled upon the mo-
ton last week after striking out all of the
sensational affidavits upon which the mo-
ton for the new trial was based He
overruled the motion. In striking out
the aftidavits which alleged he had been
improperly Influenced in deciding the case
IN favor Of Heinze, the attorneys for the
Amalgamated Copper company assert that
he removed the grounds for, the new trial
5and they therefore appealed.
II the supreme court issues the per-
emptory writ of mandamus desired, some
sensational developments may result.
There may be charge of contempt of the
order of the supreme court and perhaps
perjury preferred against the judge. If
this results a strong effort will be made
to induce Governor Toole to suspend
from Office judge who has brought dis
grace upon the Montana Judiciary
AS the governors sympathies are said
to be with Heinze in his fight with the
Amalgamated, the executive may not be
very prompt to act

OLD ENGLISH FURNITURE
The SOuth's Supply of Antiques Is
Practically Exhausted.


One of the Interesting phases of the
art life of the capital is the trade in an
tique furniture, of which this city is the
acknowledged center In no city Of the
western hemisphere has the trade in old
and rare furniture assumed the proper
tions that it has in this place. Several
days ago a Post reporter, in conversation
with a leading dealer, learned that the
present supply Of rare old furniture is be-
ing import ed from England. THE South
has been exhausted" said the.dealer. I'VE
have about raked and scraped that quarter
Of all that it contained. At one time it
was our principal source Of supply, but
this is no longer the case. -
There is some left in Virginia and
Pennsylvania. and occasionally We receive
some rare old pieces from those st ates
but not to the extent that we did thirty
five yearsSago. Now we have to go to
England. At present there is great craze
for Heppel white furniture, the taste for
tChippendaIe's work having, in measure,
subsidized. White and Chippendale were
two very famous English cabinet makers
Of the early eighteenth century, who
worked in mahogany, walnut, cherry and
other woods. Some people do not know
the difference between the two styles, and
at times even the expert dealer is puz-
zled. E.,-
"As rule Chippendale copied after the
French, and his furniture Is characterized
by curved legs, corners, ETC., while that
made by White has straight spindle legs
and sharp corners. Old English and Amer
lean furniture of the eighteenth century
remains popular and in style for the rea-
son that it chimes we'll with the furnish
.ings of any other period. This Is not
the case with the eighteenth century
French furniture. 1t is so gaudy and or
nate that it is necessary to have every
thing In the room of the same period in
order to make things harmonize" -
