ment for stealing at Milan in 1898, but
effected his escape to England, where he
is supposed to have imbibed his anarchist
principles.
His father was a patriotic communal
councillor, but Rubino, while still serving
in the army, was condemned to 1ve years
detention for writing a suborsive news
paper article. These are the only criminal
records that have been found against him.
Since leaving Italy he has resided con-
tinuously in Scotland and England first in
Glasgow and afterward In London. Some
years ago he was accused of treachery by
his anarchist friends and expelled from
their ranks.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 16.-According TO some
reports, Rubino in the course OF his ex-
animation before the magistrate declared
that lie selected King Leopold for his at
tack on account of his majesty's inhuman
conduct toward his daughter, Princess
Stephanie. at the time of her mother s
death. and he also wished TO show to the
anarchists in London who doubted his 10y

English people Ia favor OF the monarch.

CHANGERS HOLD A MEMORIAL
Impressive Ceremonies for Dfstin-
EuIshed Dead of order Held on
Sunday.

LANSING, Mich, Nov. 16.-Impressive
exercises were held by the National Grange
in Representative hall today in memory
Of the members OF that body who have
died in the last year. Eulogies we're pro-
nounced for the following who were either
masters of state oranges or the wives of
masters: ]. G. Tillinghast. Rhode Island
H. e. Huxley, Wisconsin; Mrs. d. H.
Thing, Maine; Alpha Messer, Vermont;
Mrs. S. e. Bowen. Connecticut; H. o. De-
Vries and Mrs. C. s. Wasson.
Aaron Jones, master OF the grange, at
today's session severely scored what he
termed the most gigantic of all monopoIies,
the proposed bankers trust. He sees in
the program advocated at New Orleans last
week by some members of the Bankers as
sociation for the creation of a system of
branch banking an encroachment upon the
functions OF rural communities OF vast and
serious import. He advocated the estab-
fishing of rural loan and trust companies,
the growth of which in Indiana, he says,
has been phenomenal in the last two years.

FIVE DAYS ON FRAIL RAFT
Trying Experience of Survivors of
Vessel wrecked Recently in
south Paciac.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Daily Mails cor
respondent at Wellington, N. a., telegraphs
that the eight survivors from the wreck
OF the British steamer Elingamite, who
were rescued from a raft by the British
survey steamer Penguin went through a
dreadful experience. The raft from which
they was taken measured only twelve feet
long by seven feet wide and had sixteen
persons on il when It left the wreck The
only food on board was two apples. The
first apple was consumed on Tuesday and
the second on Wednesday, each being di-
vided into sixteen portions.
From Sunday, the day they wrecked,
until Thursday, when they we're rescued
the survivors drifted sixty miles on the
half f-submerged raft. Several attempts we're
made to land on the Three Kings islands,
but without success. Three men died on
Monday night from drinking salt water.
All OF the survivors suffered the tortures
of thirst and four other men and the
stewardess died Of exhaustion before they
we're picked up. They had a cruel dis
appointment on Tuesday night A steamer
was sighted in the distance and frantic
shouts were raised by those on the raft
The steamer lowered a boat which passed
within fifty yards Of them, but the boats s
crew apparently did not see the raft and
returned to their vessel.

SOCIALISTS IN FEDERATION
Demand Another Representative on
the Executive Board IL Increase
IL Made.

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 16.-There is a
strong probability that the executive coun-
ell Of the American Federation of Labor
will be enlarged from nine to eleven MEM
bers at the present convention and that one
OF the additional members will be a repre-
sentative OF the socialist wing of the labor
unions. The socialists assert that they
control nearly one-third of the votes cast
in the convention and feel fairly confident
OF getting one man on the board. There is
strong element opposed to the increase
In number, but the socialists say they do
expect TO have won that much when the
fight Is over. But two cities have so far
been mentioned as the place for the next
convention, Buffalo and Milwaukee, The
latter place claims the better right as II
has been a candidate three times and on
each occasion has withdrawn in favor of
the place in which the convention was
held. No energetic work has been done
by the advocates OF either city.
w E. Kennedy general organizer Of the
International Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, has prepared resolution. which
he expects will raise something of a breeze
upon the floor of the convention. 1t Is to
the effect that the present local government
OF the District of Columbia is antique and
obsolete and that residents OF the District
should be allowed to vote. The resolution
is certain OF opposition. as It is the avowed
policy OF the federation to refrain from
political matters.
The visiting delegates we're handsomely
entertained today by the local laborlng
men, who arranged several social affairs
for them during the afternoon and secured
one OF the theaters for them tonight.

RABBI FRANKLIN'S NEW MOVE
Gets Jewish and Gentle ConEreRn-
tIOns into Union Thanksgiving
Services.

DETROIT, Nov. 16.-(special) )-Rabbi
Leo NJ. Franklin OF Temple Bethel, and
formerly OF Omaha, has started a move
ment which promises to mark the largest
step forward that has ever been taken
in the religious history OF Detroit He
has arranged and with every prospect OF
success. a Citizens Thanksgiving service at
the Detroit opera house, which shall be
interdenominational and nonsectarian in
character. Already ministers and laymen
OF the Presbyterian, Congregational, Meth
odist, Baptist, Universalist and Unitarian
congregations have entered into the plan
and will participate in the service. The
executive committee is now awaiting an
answer from the Catholic Bishop, whose
cooperation is also expected.
The possibility of arranging such a sery-
ice was first secuted by many, as Detroit
churchmen are notoriously conservative,
but the idea has taken a wonderful hold
on the people. DR.. Lee S. McColester OF
the Universslist church is associated with
DR.. Franklin in the promotion OF the serv-
ice which, IL successful, will be made a
permanent institution. The Orpheus club,
a male chorus Of fifty voices. will furnish
the music for the occasion.

Franchises Asked For,

At the meeting Of the village
trustees last Saturday applications
for franchises for electric light and
power purposes were applied for by
w. w. Stevens, of Niles, Michi-
gan, on the one hand, and Messrs.
Ailshie, Martin Wagner and A. A.
Kincaid on the other. The avowed
intention of both applicants is to
generate power on the south fork
of the Clearwater river. and trans
NIT the same to Grangeville, Den
yer and Cottonwood.
As a counter proposition Mr..
Van Buren,, the manager of the
present electric light plant
in this town, made the trus-
tees proposition to furnish
the village with free stree
lights for one year, with the priv.
ilege of continuing the same there
after, provided no new franchise
was granted to others.
Mr.. Stevens claims that if he il
granted franchise he will imme
diately put in steam plant ant
have the town lighted by the com
ing June, and in the mean time h
will go ahead with the plans as out
lined for installing the water powe
system on the southfork of th
Clearwater.
The several applications were re
ferred to the appropriate commit
tees, and as the trustees meet agai
next Saturday and will at that tim
make their report it is probabl
that in our next issue We may b
able to throw more light on tn
subject.
