ELEPHANTS MEAN TRICK.
Lincoln Park Visitors Silk Hats
Spoiled by the Empress,

SpOIS0 ny ITO GNVPT06Ss
Chicago, April Silk hats and
faultless spring clothing worn by two
friends Of Sir Thomas Upton Sunday
received drenehing from the ele-
phant at Lincoln park. The two for.
eigners wiped the water from their
eyes and recovered their top hats.
Then they beat hasty retreat and
hurried to the Auditorium annex for
a change Of clothing. James G. Jen-
kins, OF London. and F. w. Paul. who
registered at the annex from Crewe,
Eng, were the victims of the ele
plants trick. Mr.. Jenkins came to
Chicago with letter of introduction
from Sir Thomas Upton to N. G. Cony-
bear manager here for the Thomas
G. Upton Packing company At the
invitation Of Mr.. Conybear Mr.. Jen-
kins and Mr.. Paul went for an auto
mobile ride over the boulevards and
thru the parks. The Lincoln park 200
was spoken of as most interesting
place, and the visitors We're taken
there. The attention of the Empress,
as Keeper Cy De Vry calls his pet,
was instantly caught by the glistening
silk hats of the Englishmen. She was
taking drink, and her trunk held half
a tub of water. Her eyes wandered
from the glistening headgear to the
turned-up trousers. Then, without
warning, the Empress extended her
trunk and shot the contents full at the
silk hats. The rush of waters caught
Mr.. Jenkins squarely and he reeled at
the unexpected onclaught. Mr.. P~
received only a heavy spray, and Mr..
Conybear was far enough to the side
to be out Of range. And the little eyes
of the Empress twinkled.

DEMANDED HIS WIFE.
Unusual Story eliminates in the VII

ClUIIy OI nSdotUSS PAs
Reading, Pa, April S.-A strange and
unusual story will culminate near EN-
ans, Lehigh county, today. The house
hold effects of MIR. and Mrs. Henry
Danbert will be sold and the old folks
will separate, all because former
husband thought to have died years
ago, has appeared, and demands his
wife. Danbert is sixty-one years of
age and his wife fifty-one. Twenty
eight years ago Gilman and wife (who
was Jane Thompson) lived in New
York. Gilman went to Doylestown, Pa,
to work. Nothing was heard from him
for long time until some one wrote a
lie to the wife in New York that Gill
man was dead. He had been taken i'll
and was thrown into an asylum, where
he remained for seventeen years. His
mind became blank. Four years after
he became separated from his wife, she
thinking herself widow, married Dan
bert, and together they raised their
seven children. A few years ago Gill
man, who is now sixty-six years old,
was discharged from the asylum. 1t is
said he received a legacy of $4,000
from relative in Camden. He spent
$4,000 In searching for his wife and
children.
When Gilman went to see his wife
she recognized him. 1t was as If he had
risen from the dead. He told her he
wanted her, as she was his lawful wife.
Danbert and his partner for so many
long and happy years were Frustrated
with grief, but as Gilman was unrelent-
ing the separation was agreed upon.
Gilman is not in the best of health.
Mrs. Danbert will go with to his home
in Philadelphia.

Rome, April Sin spite of the oppo-
retary of state, the pope has decided to-
send important special missions both
to the coronation of King Edward and
to the festivities in Spain attendant up
on the enthroning of King Alfonso.
The cardinals opposition to sending the
mission to England is based on the facI
that the British parliament did not
change the anti-Catholic formula of
the cession oath, and Mgr. Merry Del
chief of the missions, openly refused to
go while the present wording of the
oath is maintained. Nevertheless the
mission will be sent and will probably
arrive in London few hours after tha
religious ceremony. This will be rep-
etition of the diplomatic maneuver carr
ried out at the coronation of Car Nich-
olas II. at Moscow.
The question of the advisabilty of u
papal mission to Spain was due to th5
regent in nominating the Spanish ans
bassador to vatican as her representa-
tive at pope's jubilee. Under ordinary
circumstances the royal prince would
have been appointed, but he was about
to go to the quirinal, thus creating a
situation full of unpleasant possibili-
ties His holiness was much displeased
ot fhfS stem and decided to be repre-
sented at Alfonso's majority festivities
by the papal nuncio at Madrid The
matter was smoothed over, however.
and it is now understood Spain will
send a grandee with an important ret
inue to specially invite the pope to send

methods, are filing the prisons with
the masses of the people,?

RODENTS BITE A CHILD.
They Gnaw the Fingers of Infant
Which Is Not Awakened.

Baltimore, April Samuel Schur-
ank, the 3-year-old of Lent Schurank
of 1906 Canton avenue, was attacked by
rodents while asleep in bed beside its.
mother, and the fingers of its right
hand were badly gnawed.
The mother is unable to account for
the fact that her little boy made no OUT
cry. She was not awakened, however,
until the usual hour, about o'clock.
The condition at the house is dis
tressing In the extreme. The place is
so overrun by the rodents that the oc-
cupants said yesterday they were
afraid to go to sleep at any hour The
dwelling is a two-story stone structure
and looks as if it had been built in
ante-reyolutionary days.
