SILVER JUBILEE
OF BISHOP j. l.. SPALDING AT
PEORIA. Ill.
:: *
Conservation of Bishop, Coadjutor of
PennsyIsnvania-New Bishop
of Colorado.

Peoria, Ill.,, May In the presence
of the largest and most notable congre-
cation that ever crowded ST. Mary,s
Cathedral, and the greatest gathering
of dignitaries Of the Roman Cathollc
church that ever assembled in this
part of the country, the celebration OF
the twenty-ffth anniversary Of the
conseeration Of Bishop J. L. Spalding
began today with a pontifical high
mass of thanksgiving, celebrated by
Bishop Spalding himself. On the
epistle side of the altar were Cardinal
Gibbons, attended by his deacons Of
honor, and on the gospel side was
Archbishop Ireland similarly attended.
About the sanctuary were gathered
arch bishops, bishops and priests with
out number. Immediately after the
gospel Cardinal Gibbons delivered a
eulogy on Bishop Spalding, and in be-
half of the clergy presented him with
beautiful chalice of gold, studded
with precious stones. An eloquent ser
man was delivered and the reading of
a congratulations message from the
Pope was part Of the ceremony.
Probably no churchanm in the Unit
ed States is more universally esteemed
that the Rt. Rev. John J Spalding. He
is regarded as one of the finest schol-
ars in the Catholic church, and is
creative literary artist of rare ability.
He is a favorite with Catholics and
essays and philosophical works have
given him an enyiable distinction
among American churchmen.

ARKANSAS STRAWBERRY CROP.
Growers Are Holding Out for an Ad-
vance Over Last Year.

Rogers, Ark, May 1.-The arrival of
the strawberry season in the Ozarks
will not mean cheap berries for the
west. as was the case in former years
The drought last fall killed so many
of the plants that the very best re-
ports only claim half of a crop for this
year. Onefourth would be nearer the
general average. Some of the ship
pers along the Frisco have already re-
fused to contract their crop at $1.65 a
crate, and are holding out for 50. Last
year the average price per crate was
only s1.25.
The chances are that the entire crop
this year will be sold on the track at
the shipping stations. Hundreds of
acres We're reset this spring, but not
nearly enough to replace the ones kill
ed last year. The crop will probably
be week or two later than last year

O'Clock this morning. The police
drove huriedly to Engine house No.
and gave the alrm. The West end
department responded promptly, but
No. was late in getting the alarm
and some time elapsed before No. 1
company reached the scene For soroe
reason the pressure was entirely inad-

paftment could not successfully cope
With the flames. The fire spread 10 a
small dwelling house in the rear of the
church, which was also destroyed.
The loss occasioned by the fire Will

Sandow on Good Health.

Eugene Sandow, the man with the re-
markable physical development. whose
prowess the world has been acquainted
with for number of years, who will
be at the Empire this week, in discussing
the question, How to become strong and
remain So" gives this advice to the man
of business and others who pursue Sc
dentary occupations:
Everyone should walk a part of the
way to business. During this walk many
of the problems of the day can be solved,
thus leaving the mind free later for de-
tail work. The ordinary business mans
lunch is heavy and unwholesome. The
moment the shop or the Office is left be-
hind the cares of the day should be
brushed aside and the mind given a rest
ing spell. This may appear very easy to
say, and some may believe it is much
harder to carry out, but it isn't so very
difficult after all, after you've tried it a
few times.
Regarding his method of training San
dow says:
q do not train in the way you Amer

Crane Was Facetious.

William H. Crane and his former pro-
fessional partner Stuart Robson. are soon
TO appear in 80 Henrietta" at a special
performance. This will be the first joint
appearance of the players since the sew
erance of their business, and it is quite
proper to say, social relations, some years
ago Crane and Robson have met only on
one or two occasions, and the curt Hello
WILL" from Robson met with but an ex-
ceedingly laconic "Howdy. Rob-" from
Crane.
Both comedians have had their full
share Of successes and failures. the most
recent hits being Cranes David Harum''
and Robson's eminently successful revival
of THE Henrietta. When Robson's pro-
duction of THE Gadiy" proved to be such
an unexpected failure, it was soon fol-
lowed by Peter Stuvesant," upon which
Mr.. Crane has based his highest hopes.

Miss Bloodgood IN Vaudeville.

Katherine Bloodgood, who is on the
Chase bill this week Will present to mu-
sic lovers the highest class of singing
given on the local vaudeville stage this
season. She owes her distinction as one
of the leading contraltos of the country
to the hard-won success she has achieved
throughout her career.
Both the East and the West are able to
claim her as Ithaca, y. Y, was her birth
place. and California the scene of her
girlhood. Success seems to have followed
in her wake whether it the charm Of
her general recital work or the broader
sphere of her oratorio singing. She be-
came generally well known some time
since in the marked success made as one
of the leading artists with the Boston
Festival Orchestra, and when she came
into direct contact with such artists as
Calve and Nordica, but always winning
marked share of the audiences favor.
Miss Bloodgood has sung with Seidl,
with the Handel and Haydn Societies of
Boston, the Apollo, of st. Louis. and was
one of the soloists of the Worcester Mu-
steal Festival. She has also appeared at
the Albany Festival, and enjoyed a re-
markably successful tour through the
South, singing in all the large cities. She
also sang with the Apollo Club of Chi
cago in The Swan and the Skylark,"
with Nordiea in the Requiem" and with
David Bispham, Nordica, and Hamlin. Her
repertoire is indeed varied, and includes
a complete list for concert work, many
novelties in manuscript being among
them.

1.-The Burgonaster."

The "Burgomaster," that bright musical
affair of Chicago origin, which pleased a
succession of large audiences at the Co
lumbia Theatre last season, will return
to the F Street playhouse for a second en-
gagement next week.
The company will be quite different from
the organization that did the piece here
on the occasion of its previous visit.
Richard Carroll has been succeeded by
Herbert Cawthorn, and Miss Edith Brad
ford now interprets the chief feminine
part.
The song, THE Tale of the Kangaroo"
has had much to do with the success of
The Burgomaster,' although the idea of
transferring one of the early Governors
of New Amsterdam to modern New York
offered many opportunities for the intro
duction Of comedy and music, all of which
Frank Pixley, the iibrettst. and Gustav
the composer took advantage of.
