American PreIate Of the Roman
Catholic Church Arrives
in New York.
WELCOMED BY PRIESTS
Spoke in Terms Of the Greatest En-.
thusiasm When Referring
to Plus X.

New York, Sept. 22-Cardinal Glib.
bons arrived here today on the Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse. A delegation of
priests and laymen from Baltimore,
went down the bay on the revenue
cutter to greet him and welcome him
home. Heading the delegation were
the Rev DR.. ]. D. Stafford Of Washing.
ton, and the Rev. B. Singleton Of Bal
timore, and R. B. Tibbett of Baltimore,
supreme president of the Catholic be-
nevolent lodge.
The cardinal will remain in this
city guest at the home of Mrs Kel-
ley of Brooklyn, until Friday, when
he will accompany the delegation to
Baltimore. When the welcoming par
ty boarded the Kaiser Wilhelm off
quarantine, Mr.. Tibbett made an ad-
dress of welcome to which the Cardi-
nal briefly responded. Another recep-
tion awaited the Cardinal when he
went ashore at Hoboken.
. This afternoon u Cardinal will go
to Brooklyn. He lad a pleasant voy-
age and he said the ocean trip had
his strength, which had
been greatly taxed by the severe spell
of fever he suffered, due to the in
tense heat in Rome during the pro-
gress of the conclave.
Of the new pontiff the Cardinal
spoke in terms of the greatest enthus-
iasm. He said the choice of conclave
had been most happy from an Ameri-
can viewpoint, as Plus X was deeply
interested in the development of the
church in this country, and was sin
gularly familiar with American insti-
tutions.
The Cardinal had several lengthy
with the Pope regarding
church affairs in this country. The
Cardinal was not inclined to discuss
the probable policy of the new papal
regime, but said that no radical
changes in American church admins
tratiOn would enSue,

.ULT|MATUM TO MILITIA
Unless Cripple Greek Prisoners Are
Turned Over to Sheriff Court
Will Hear Cases.

Cripple Creek, Sept. 22-This
morning counsel for the military made
the statement in court that at
o clock this afternoon, they would pre-
sent three affidavits against three
prisoners, for crimes against the law.
They further added that they would
make affidavit against other prisoners
in few days. The prisoners were
not present this morning and Attor-
ney Crump asked that a motion to
quash be taken up, as to the legal
points, without the presence of pris-
oners.
The court refused to waive the right
of the prisoners, and said that an ad-
journment would be taken until 2
o'clock, when consideration of the ar
gument to quash would again be taken
up. There was no military display
this morning.
Attorney Crump said today when
asked his reason for not bringing the
prisoners into court:
''The defendant General Sherman
Bell, sends word to your honor that
in his best judgment, had the prison
ers been brought here today at the
hour named by the court things might
haev occurred which your honor, Mr..
Murphy, myself and all of us would
have regretted. There will be no step
taken by us in disobedience to this or
any other competent court"
The court ruled that unless the
prisoners were turned over to the sher-
iff by o'clock, he would proceed with
the hearing of all four cases.

AN ARMIES BOWLER.
Won a Championship Game with Ard-
fetal Hand Invented by Himself.

Though without hands or fore
arms, Benjamin f. Coifman, Of Lin
coin, H., has won the bowling cham
pionship OF his home city and is after
still larger honors.
This remarkable sportsman, says
the New York World, sthe onlyarm-
less bowler in the world, and his fame
is spreading rapidly.
He holds the ball by an artificial
hand planned by himself and built
especially for this purpose. Instead
OF fingers there is a set Of springs
which are Of such strength that they
will hold the ball except at the mo-
ment Of outward swing when it
should be released.
Soon after he met with the acct
dent that caused the loss Of both his
arms the community was intensely
interested in the announcement that
the bowling fraternity of Lincoln,
ILL.,, were backing Co ffmanagainstan
other popular man of his class. His
best score at a certain match was 201,
the average tally of his opponent be-
ing something like a hundred less.
He had not lost his cunning in
spite Of the fact that he was manipu-
lating the ball with a set Of artificial
fingers. For some time previous to
his misfortune Mr.. Coffman had been
the champion bowler in his vicinity,
and after it he still retained his fond
ness for the sport. So absorbing was
his desire to continue to maintain his
former standing there that he con-
trived an ingenious device which en-
abled him to grasp and hold the ball
both naturally and well. With q
swing of his strong arm he sends the
ball spinning down the alley. With
a very limited amount Of practice he
was all ready to play in one Of the
Lincoln City league teams in theil
weekly games.

Health in BaIloOning.

DR.. Naugier, of Paris, in paper on
ballooning at recent meeting of the
Academic de Medicine, made the as
tonishing assertion that q two hours
voyage in the air causes a marked in
crease in the number Of The red cor
puscles, and hecondiiion persists for
ten days after an ascent. Two such
ascents in the course Of six or seven
weeks, he said, are more beneficial to
an anaemic than a sojourn of three
months in the mountains. DR.. Nau-
gier urged that the municipal coun-
Gil be asked to provides large balloon
capable Of taking to the upper all
daily so patients who are too poor ia
afford a change Of climate.

Bate on THE ALMANAcs.
High School Debate Argued Along
Lines of Divergent Statistics.


The rhetoric class and the oratory
class Of the East side evening high
school, says the New York sun, had
eheir annual debate on Friday night
on the question; Resolved, That we
favor government ownership of pub
lie franchises" Government owner
ship Of railroads was the main bone of
contention, and the number of fatal
accidents the leading argument.
Both sides had authorities to backup
their assertions. "Take the year
1902, for instance" cried Debater
Wurzel, fourishing a book bound in
red. "Inthat year steentythousand
and 'steen were killed on railroads in
this country. Here is my authority
10 prove it."
WhenD ebater Hecker got a chance
10 reply he had a few figures to dis
prove Wurzel's hgures. Healso flour
ished a book.
1My competitions figures are far
astray," he said. "In that year there
we're 'steenty thousand and 'steen
hundred killed, nearly twice as many
as my worthy opponent would have
you believe. Here is the authority to
prove it."
During the rest of the debate,
which lasted until nearly midnight,
she battle of figures ragged. The end
came when one side inadvertently
mentioned the book its speakers
aourished as the annual almanac Of a
morning newspaper. The other had
the almanac of the opposition news
paper.
The debate was decided in the af-
firmatiye.

Two Old Beggars Who Got Each

Two Old Beggars Who Got Each
Others Instruments.
Pedestrians in a certain provincial
city recently were much puzzled by
an old woman who was playing a bar
rel organ. AT one end of the instru-
ment, says London Tit-Bits, she had
pasted the notice:
Help the Blind"
Beneath it appeared a second ap-
peal:
81 am the father of seven mother
less children"
The old woman wore a pair Of blue
s~pectacles, behind which her eyes
were completely hidden.
A few streets farther on the mys-
terry of the inscription was cleared
up, for there sat an old man turning
music out Of another organ as dilap-
idated as the one whose faint strains
could almost be heard from up the
street.
He. too, wore glasses, and his or
gan bore the legend;
"Help the Blind"
And under it:
81 am the mother of seven father
less children"
Aman stepped up to him and said:
"Look here, my friend, next time
you 60 out you had better get the
right label on your organ"
The grinder must have guessed
what the error was, for, pushing the
glasses back from his eyes he peered
quickly up and down the street as il
looking for a policeman.
Seeing none he leaned over and
read the sign.
"That's the old woman all over
he muttered, replacing the glasses
and turning his instrument to leave.
She's mixed them blooming organs
up again"

RESIGNED BY ARRANGEMENT
How the Old Office Boy Got His PO'
sition Back.

sition Back.
Owing to the illness Of his regular
office boy, a doctor, some weeks ago,
engaged a new lad named Tommy,
says London Answers.
Tommy was a jewel, and when Joe,
the former messenger, was GONZALES
cent, the doctor was 10th to send
Tommy of.
But Joe wanted to come back, and
pleaded with his former employer.
A way out of the dilemma seemed
to present itself, for the doctor said:
"You can have the situation again,
dyou can arrange with Tommy"
Every well, sir" replied Joe. 81
think | can do that"
I'm a few moments Joe had thought
out a plan.
When the doctor returned that
night to his surgery, he met a sight he
had not bargained for.
The glass door was smashed to
smithereens, a marble clock on the
rnantel was minus its hands, face and
dial, and a handsome consulting
room chair reposed on three legs.
There was a heavy odor Of drugs and
6he bottles which had contained them
looked, if anything, worse wreck;
than the doctors patients.
There had evidently been a tre-
rnendous struggle; but Joe was in vic
torious possession, nursing a swollen
cheek.
"Tommy's gone. I've arranged
with him!" he said, with a grin.
