GIFT FROM IRELAND.
Many faithful Irish, always generous
friends Of the Holy See. had combined to
contribute something toward the Vatican
housekeeping and sent a gift OF eighty
bales of hannels, which the Pope received
with much pleasure, not on account of the
value, but because Of the thoughtfulness
of his Irish friends. Eighty bales of house
flannels seems an awful lot. but even that
immense quantity did not suffice, though
not a rag was wasted, says the major
domo. Twenty more bales had to be ordered
in Dublin and arrived. together with 2
telegram from the archbishop, saying that
his faithful were collecting money TO aug
ment their previous gift Leo was pleased
that the offer of service came too late.
1.-THE Irish are very good to the little old
man." he said but they poor and we
must not allow their generosity to run
away with their judgment, God bless
them
The numerous women that made up two
ffths of the Pope's army of cleaners were
on their hands and knees six months out of
the eight-when they were not carrying
water. They never had such a continual
siege of scrubbing in their lives. How in
dustriously they worked is shown by the
fact that they used up from 1900 to 200
scrubbing brushes weekly likewise 5000
pounds of soap and 1000 of soda.
The brOoms were principally handled by
men-after the first week there were only
eight thousand sticks left. AS the work
proceeded fewer brooms were used up. but
never less than a thousand a week The
major domo's report says that the dust lay
in some apartments fully an inch high, the
workmen being obliged to put cotton in

MRS. MAVERICK.
An American Lady Who Will Be Par
 doned.

A London telegram of the 17th, says: ''It is reported that King Ed waed has decided to grant a pardon to Mrs. Florence Maybriek during the coronation. The report, however, is generally credited. The pardon, If granted, will be due entirely to the personal work of King Edward, and it may be considered a token of his appreciation of American good will.
 Efforts to secure the relea se of Mrs. Maybriek have been. redoubled of late, and there is no doubt that they have had a marked effect OF the king. The American friends of Mrs. May brick found DO difficulty in causing him to grant his consent. It is re- garded as practically certain that Mrs. Maybrick will be free woman by July 1. If she is released she will sail for the United States on the first steamer"
 She has been confined in jail since 1880, and is now 40 years of age. She is a beautiful woman. and was accused of poisoning her husband, an Englishmen. She wlil receive from her American friends a great ovation as it is universally believed she is in nocent.

PREPARING TO
 VISIT ARIZONA
General Funston and Staff Sched- uIed to Leave Denver at
 an Early Date.
Southern Arizona Military Posts Will First be Visited, When Prescott and Fort Whipple Will be
 Favored by the Party.

Late Denver adviees are to the eff feet that General Funston has recov- cred from his recent illness and is preparing to make an inspection of all military posts under his command in Arizona. He is expected to be in Bisbee the first week in July, and while in southern Arizona will visit Fort Grant and Fort Huarhuca, which will bring him to that part of the territory for a stay of several days. He will be accompanied by four staff officers, who will be with him to assist in the proposed inspec- tion of Arizona military points.
 "We are making strong effort to have General Funston with us on the Fourth" said John Mullen, Spanish American war veteran yesterday to the Bisbee News; 'ahd his presence would add greatly to the celebration to be given in honor of the nations independence. I believe now that General Funston will be our guest"
 General Funston in going direct from Denver to the boundary line, is governed by climatic conditions to a certain extent and in order to finish his military duties at Whipple at the last, so that he will not be embar- rassed by time, he will probably re main for some days and while here will have an excellent opportunity to arrange for the disposition of the troops who are to garrison the post. His arrival will be an event for this section. and there is no doubt but what he will feel ''at home" during his brief stay.

STATEHOOD WRANeLE.
Senator Quay FIatIy Declares Himself
 on the Issue.

A Washington dispatch gives a clear statement on the omnibus state hood bill as supported by Senator Quay. Here it is:
 Senator Quay of Pennsylvania, is a member of the senate committee on territories, and when that committee decided, few days ago. not to report the omnibus statehood bill this ses- sion, Senator Quay was the only re- publican senator who voted with the democrats for an immediate report on the bill. Mir. Quay wants the bill passed at this session, and the action of the committee made him so angry that today he gave notice in the sen ate that, immediately after the canal bill has been voted upon, he will move to have the territories commit tee discharged from consideration of the bill. That would bring the state hood bill before the senate and make its consideration and passage possi- ble.
 It takes majority of the senate to discharge committee from consider ation of bill. Senator Quay says he has fifty senators who will stand with him in pressing the statehood bill for Arizona, New Mexico and | Oklahoma now. Delegate Flynn of Oklahoma says that he knows to a certainty that majority of the sen ate favors immediate consideration of | the bill giving statehood to all three territories.
 Senator Bard, who is also a mem Der of the territories committee, said | tonight that the senate leaders felt | no alarm over MT. Quay's notice, be- lieving that the senate will refuse to | agree to the motion. Other republi- | can senators express the same views.
 Senator Quay's interest in the mat ter seems to come from the fact that he has a friend in New Mexico named Bull" Andrews, and Andrews wants to get into the United States senate. Quay wants hlm there.
