FRIARS' LAND QUESTION.
COMMISSION OF CARDINALS TO BE
NAMED.

Cardinal MartinelIi, Being an Au-
serVe-CardfnaI RampOlIn and the
Pope Discuss the Matter Privately.
Italian Papers Publish wild Cam
ards About Gov. Taft's Visit to
Rome.
Rome. June THE papal secretary
of state, Cardinal Rampolla, had his
usual private audience with the Pope
this morning. Naturally the question
of the acquisition by the United States
of the friar lands in the Philippines
will be a subject for discussion at
the daily conferences, but the alleged
information on the subject is purely
surmise, as absolute secrecy is main
tanned as to what transpires at these
official visits. Cardinal RampolIa was
agreeably impressed by the fr5S.k-
ness shown by Gov. Taft in sending
him a copy of Secretary Roots in
structions for examination.
The Pope has not yet appointed the
commission of cardinals to which the
matter is to be referred. This COM
mission will consist of five instead of
three members, as previously supposed,
and probably Cardinals Van Nutelli,
Satolli and Wives Tuto will be in
Guided. Cardinal Martinelli will be ex-
Guided because he is an Augustinian.
Cardinal Martinelli will be present at
the customary official reception of the
cardinals prior to the consistory at the
Palazzo Borghese to-day. The Ameri-
can officials will also be present.
Cardinal Rampolla to-day returned
the visit of Gov. Taft at the Hotel
Quirinal
Gov Taft is greatly annoyed by the
inventions of the Italian newspapers
regarding his visit to Rome. The

WILD WORK OF ANIMALS.
show People Have Terrible Expert
cnce With Their Savage Pets Mt
Cleveland, o.

Cleveland, o.. June Three trainers
attached to an animal show had
thrilling experiences here to-day with
their savage pets. and as a result one
man. the lion tanner, Joseph McPhee,
is fatally injured, with great holes in
his abdomen, made by the teeth OF
lion. The others injured are Herman
Wedder, whose right leg was badly
crushed by a bear, and Nine. Moreln,
whose right arm and side were LAGER
ated by a leopard.
The animals mad travelled from Bos
ton to this city and were surly and
ugly.
Wedder entered the cage of a big
bear, which received him with a swipe
of his immense paw, knocking him to
the floor where the bear pounced upon
him and fastened his teeth into his
right leg. tearing off so large chunck
as to make necessary, surgeons say,
the amputation of the injured limb.
A leopard leaped upon Nine. Morellis
shoulder and lacerated her right arm
severely. Nine. Morelli was lying
on the floor when the attendants came
to her assistance and with pixies drove
the animal off.
The Lion Tanners Fate.
The lion tanner, McPhee, was watch
ing the transfer of the lions from the
car to their cage, and because they
refused to move promptly he entered
the cage. He had hardly entered be-
fore a great beast leaped upon him,
pinning him to the floor. The lion
placed his great paws upon the fallen
mans breast and tore his right leg in
a fearful manner. the tendons being
pulled from the bone.
The efforts of the attendants to drive
the lion off with pixies had no effect,
and seemed only to infuriate him the
more, for he quickly pushed his big
jaws and sharp teeth into McPhees
abdomen, and when he released his hold
the trainers abdomen was torn so bad
ly that his entrails were in sight. The
lion was finally driven off, and McPhee
was removed from the cage.

HOW TO SMOKE YOUR CIGAR.
Your Manner of Doing 1t Said to In
dictate Your CHARACTER.

From an Exchange.
"Cigarology" is the title of a new art,
the rules of which have been formu-
lated after years of study by a Euro
pean psychologist. Its object is to re-
veal character, and the claim is made
that in no other way can the character
of stranger be more readily discov-
cred than by observing the manner in
which he smokes. The reason is be-
cause in society all persons conform
more or less to long-established rules
and thus there is very little difference
between one person and another.
No rules, however, have been laid
down as to the manner in which a
man shall smoke, and, as no two men
smoke in exactly the same manner, Il
is possible, says the inventor of this
new art tC learn the character of every
smoker whom one may meet.
Here are the rules to be observed,
and they apply to all persons, whether
they smoke pipes, cigars or cigarettes

Generosity. courtesy and loyalty are

his pipe recklessly and rapidly and
who sends forth irregular puffs of

implicit confidence should at no time
be placed in him. Goodness, reserve
and caution are, on the contrary, the
salient characteristics of a man who
nils his pipe slowly and methodically.
and who smokes with the regularity of
an automaton.
The results, however, obtained from
a pipe are not by an means equal in
value to those which are furnished by
a cigar.
Many smokers carry their cigars in
the upper left-hand pocket OF their
vests. and the sole reason why they

AMNESTY FOR AMERICANS.
But Estes RathbOne Insists That He
Must Have VindicatiOn in Some
Manner

Havana, June THE bill granting
amnesty to all Americans now in Jail
or awaiting trial in Cuba was to-day
passed unanimously by the Senate.
President Palma says he will sign the
bill as soon it is presented to him.
In the course of an interview had
with him to-day, Estes G. Rathbone
said:

PREPARING FOR CORONATION.
STRANGE SIGHTS NOW SEEN ON
LONDON'S STREETS.

Indian Princes and other POtentates
Are Numerous-M of Jey-
more Provided with Slaughter
House of His own Where Hindu
Butchers Prepare His Meats in
Orthodox MahOmmedRn Style.
Peeresses Will BE Chilly Decked in
Costly and Historic Costumes.
London, June 7.-As the date of the
coronation approaches London is as
suming a beflagged aspect, the early
extent of which is tonight no little de-
gree due to the peace rejoicing. The
Indian and other foreign princes, with
Oriental costumes in the royal car
riages, are sights to which London is
becoming daily accustomed. The feed
ing of these notabilities almost drives
the court functionaries to despair. That
most orthodox of Hindu potentates, the
Maharaj ah of Jeypore. who is living in
stately confinement at Moray Lodge.
has commanded a complete renovation
of a neighboring slaughter house, even
to the flooring. which is now exclusively
devoted to killing animals required by
the Maharajah and his enormous suite.
All the slaughtering operations are
naturally conducted by Hindu butchers,
who enshroud the slaughterhouse with
amusing secrecy, much to the disap-
pointment of the local residents.
Despite the strict orders issued re-
garding the uniformity of the dresses
to be worn by peeresses at the corona
ton service. there will be seen the
countless variations that art and
money can devise without actual dis
obedience to royal commands. All the
dresses must be white, but many Ia
dies, determined to make their dresses
distinctive of the occasion and to pre-
serve them as heirloOms, are having
gowns embroidered with coats of arms,
national flowers and other devices.
These are being executed in gold and
silver. here and there touched with the
forbidden colored silk in order to bring
out the badge of a clan or an ancient
heraldic quartering. Gold embroidery
down the sides of dresses and on shoul-
der straps is also much employed,
many persons exactly copying the pic
lures of costumes worn by their ances-
tors on the occasion of a previous cor
onation. The Countess of Shrewsbury
mother of the earl of polo fame. will
appear. with the exception of hoops
in an exactly similar dress to that
worn by the Countess OF Eglingtoun
when George III was crowned.
