LEOPOLD INSULTS
HIS DAUGHTER

SPA Belgium), September PA
Belgians, at which the Bishop of Liege
will otiiciate, will be celebrated here to-
morrow. Special trains will be run for
the occasion from Brussels, to bring
members of the royal family, who. aft
er the mass, will conduct the remains
of the late Queen back to the capital.
King Leopold arrived here today.
When the King arrived he refused to
speak to the Princess stephanie and
compelled her to leave the royal pal
ace. The Princess consequently left
Spa suddenly. She rode to the station
in a hired carriage, amid demonstra-
tions of sympathy from the people, and
took train for Brussels.
There are various versions of the
quarrel between King Leopold and
Princess Stephanie, his daughter, the
most reliable of which is to the effect
that the Princess was in the death
chamber when His Majesty arrived at
the palace. He refused to enter until
she had left the room. Princess Glenn
entine, the Kings third daughter. came
and took Princess Stephanie away.
King Leopold then entered the death
chamber and prayed before the coffin
for twenty-five minutes.
The news of the quarrel between the
King and the Princess spread rapidly.
Princess Stephanie is the second
daughter of the late Queen Marie Hen
riette and King Leopold. She married
the only son of the Emperor OF Austria
in 1881 and was left widow IN 1889.
She was married the second time in
1900 to Elmer. Count OF Lonyay. This

merchant who recently escaped from
Ciudad Bolivar, arrived here yesterday
and made a statement under oath be-
fore the officials here setting forth that
on August goth the Venezuelan warship
Restaurador, when steaming up the
OrinOco river for the second time in
order to again lombard Ciudad Boil
var, hoisted the American flag in order
TO be able TO reach that city without
arotsing the suspicious of the inhabi-
tants of that city as to her identity,
and that by this strategy the Restau-
rador reached the custom house at
Ciudad Bolivar and Immediately open
ed fire on the center of the city, causing
loss of life and damage to property in
the quarters inhabited by foreigners.
The merchant also stated that the for
eign consuls and all the population OF
Ciudad Bolivar protested against the
action of the Restaurador.
WASHINGTON, September 2i.-The
singular circumstance reported by the
German merchant in the above cable
gram was explained by the reception of
two cablesrams from United States
Minister Bowen, at Caracas, at the
State Department this afternoon. The
first dispatch stated that the Venezue-
Ian gunboat Restaurador had ap-
preached Ciudad Bolivar flying the A
merican flag. She did not lower the
flag until she was very close to the
shore, when she opened fire upon the
insurgents from her position there, Gre

Restaurador returned to La Guayra

SPAIN RESUMES PAYMENTS.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 25.-The Treas
ury Department has begun the dis
tribution of $2S,5OO, the sum received
from the government of Spain, as one
of the annual payments of indemnity
due under the treaty of 1884 The con-
tinuation of these payments is re-
garded as a marked evidence of the
high sense of honor cherished by the
Spanish people in meeting an obliga-
ton.
About 1915 some American merchant
ships We're seized and destroyed by
Spanish national vessels and when the
matter was brought before a tribunal,
an award was made in favor of the
United States citizens for the amount
of their losses. The principal was con-
Verted by a curious Spanish method
in perpetual rentes, and the Spanish
government has met the interest on
these with great regularity ever since
the treaty of 1884. By a rule OF inter-
national law, war absolutely extin-
suishes treaties previously existing be-
tween the principals; but the Spanish
government did not regard itself as
thus relieved by its recent war with
the United States, and the only discom-
fort to which the scrip holders were
subjected was in a slight deferment
OF two payments during the war.

Although the statement is freely
made today that there are not enough
American born cable operators to man
a single cable this does not necessarily
mean that some other country has led
US in cable construction. The develop
ment Of the submarine cable from the
mere gutta percha coated wire laid in
New York harbor by Professor Morse
in 1912 to the great cables which now
girdle almost the entire earth and will
soon form a network over the Pacific
ocean are the result Of American enter
prise.
The cable which will soon connect
Hawaii with the outer world, will rev.
olutionze the islands. our stock mar
ket will not be controlled by the weekly
reports by steamer from San Francisco
bat will be dominated by frequent ca
bes from all sugar growing centers and
their markets. This is only one Of the
things that will be changed by the ca
BILE There are dozens of others.
The history of the development Of the
great cables is interesting and is con-
nected with the movements and actions
of the foremost men of the last half
century. Saliva, a Spaniard, is credited
with being the first man to suggest
communication under the sea by means
of a submarine cable. Adm, his
nephew, in 1903 in Calais, France, con-
Quoted experiments of sending electric
signals under the sea near that place:
TELEGRAPH signals were sent through
insulated wires under the River Hoogly
in India in 1899. But the most success
full of all of the early cable people was
Morse. In 1912 he transmitted electric
currents and signals through an in
sulated copper wire which he had laid
from Castle Garden to Governors ISL
and in New York harbor.
Morse was looked upon as a fakir by
many but in the following year he
astounded the nation by declaring that
he could establish submarine telegraph
communication between United States
and Europe.
Morse worked for three years before
he got any satisfaction out of capital
lists and was able to establish a sub
marine line. In 1S45 Ezra Cornell as

between France and Algeria in 1861
proved a complete failure after a few
months of experiment
of a cable line to con-
meet India with England undertaken
by the Indian Government, the line
to be laid through the Arabian Sea
and Persian Gulf to connect with
land lines thence to Calais and ny
the short submarine line under the
British Channel to England. The
submerged line in the Arabian Sea
and the Persian Gulf had a total
length of l,i50 miles, but with three
intermediate landing places. This
line consisted OF a copper core sur
rounded by layers of gutta percha,
alternated with other non-cOnducting
and waterproof material, being pro
tected by an outer sheathng of
twelve galvanized iron wires wound
spirally about 1t, which in turn were
protected by double wrappingS of
tarrcd hemp yarn. All of these ma

every particular, but after 1,1S6 miles
had been laid westward from Valen-
tia the cable broke in water over
ll,OOO feet deep, and the attempts to
recover ii were unsuccessful.
j6-Mr. Field and his associates renewed
their efforts to lay cable across the
Atlantic. A new company with So
100000 capital was formed with the
doup,e purpose of attempting to find
the end of me cable partially laid in
1865 and complete the line, and also
to lay another cable parallel with and
near to it. The cable manufactured
for the proposed new line was SINH
lar to that of 1865. The Great East
ern was remodelled further to meet
the requirements of the work, and
left Valencia, ireland, on July 10, 1866,
paying out the cable in a line about
twenty-five miles north Of that fol-
lowed in the preceding year. She
saIeiy arrived at Newfoundland in
fourteen days from the date of leav-

between the United States and En-

succeeded in bringing the end on
board from a depth of over 1900
feet, the tests Immediately made

connection with the Nalentia end.
a splice was made and the laying of
the line toward Newfoundland re-
sumed. and on September the cable
was lanueu at that point, and the

cation between the United States and
Europe thus completed, Newfound-

From the Brain.

its Marks and Lines and It's Signal
From the Brain.
A tremendous amount Of nonsense
has been written about thumb marks.
1t is claimed that the curious skin con-
6guration on the ball of the thumb IS
never the same in any two people and
that it never changes. The first state
ment is correct, and the same thing can
be said of the lines on the palm and
the creases on the bottom OF the feet.
But the assertion that the thumb marks
never change throughout life Is a de-
cided exaggeration. The alteration may
come from a variety Of causes-any'
thing. in fact, that will destroy the
outer layer of skin.
Another modifying cause is the tend
ency Of the thumb to develop little
horizontal creases as one grows old.
This is especially true Of mechanics and
other working people who use tools,
and eventually the creases will break
I'D the lines to such an extent that II
is equivalent almost to reaTange-
ment OF the pattern. SpeclallStS III
nerve diseases by an examination OF
the thumb can tell if the patient Is
affected or likely to be affected by
paralysis, as the thumb signals this
long before it is visible in any other
part Of the body. If the danger symp-
toms are evidenced there, an operation
is performed on what is known as the
thumb center" of the brain, and the
disorder is often removed.
No matter how carefully the individ'
ual may attempt to conceal incipient in
sanity, the thumb will reveal it infal'
libby. 1t is the one sure test. If the
patient in his daily work permits the
thumb to stand at a right angle to the
other fingers or to fall listless into the
palm, taking no part in his writing, his
handling of things. his multiform du-
ties, but standing isolated and sulky, II
is an unanswerable confession Of men,

DAIRY NOTES.

Good butter should be solid from the
time it is put upon the table.
Any excitement in the dairy COW
tends to lessen the flow of milk.
Failing to gei~all the buttermilk out
causes butter TO become rancid soon.
TO obtain the best results in churning
the cream should be only slightly sour.
In winter the cream should be warm
ed up to about &C degrees before put
ting in the churn.
One advantage in brine sailing is
that it almost entirely avoids streaked
or notified butter.
The milk should always be skinned
while sweet and the cream then allow
ed to turn slightly sour.
Sometimes butter has white specks
distributed through it. This is caused
by oversourneSs in the cream.
In butter making next to controlling
the temperature is to churn often while
the cream is in good condition.
With temperature under control and
churning done at the right time the
butter will become solid and be easily
handled.
On the farm to make the most out Of
the milk and butter some of the COWS
should be bred to come fresh in the
spring and some in the fall.-St. Louis

Blossom Party.

The empress Of Japan gives two bios
som parties every year, one in the cher
ry season and one when chrysanthe-
NUNS are in bloom. An English girl
who was present at one Of the latter
functions given at Tokyo palace writes
about it as follows:
The empress and all her suit were in
European dress, beautiful brocades,
but so old fashioned They looked well
enough when sitting, but were funny
to degree when they walked. The
empress was in heliotrOpe, magnificent
brOcade, with tOque and parasol to
match Her skirt was too full and
had a pathetic little rufiie around the
edge. Not single Jap was In native
dress, and those who did not get their
clothes for the party in time were sim
ply raging and stayed at home. l was
very much disappointed in the chrys-
anthemum, for l have known far bet
ter shows at home in London, and
expected to see wonders here in the
native land of the flower. One bush
at least was a marvel, for 1t had 100
blossoms on it.
