LUNATIC FIRES PISTOL
At Royal Procession in Madrid-King's
Life Endangered.

Life Endangered.
Madrid, Jan. 1O-As King Alfonso,
Dowager Queen Christina and the court
were returning from church this after
noon man, who afterwards gave his
name as Feito, fired a pistol at one of
the carriages in the royal procession.
The bullet went wild, and no one was
injured. The king heard the shot and
put his head out of the carriage win
DOW, but he was Immediately dragged
back into his seat by the queen mother,
who was seated beside him in the car
riage.
The escort of civil guards immediate
~ threw themselves upon the would
be assassin and overpowered him.
fefto was taken to the police station.
where he said he did not desire to kill
the king, but the grand chamberlain,
the Duke of Sotomayor, at whose car
riage he had aimed. He was searched,
ana in his pockets were found unmailed
letters, marked Registered" and ad-
dressed to President Roosevelt, King
Edward, Emperor of Germany and the
president of the high court of Justice
at Mexico, and also receipts for a num-
Der of registered letters and a visiting
card Of the mayor of Madrid. Feito
was later examined by magistrate, to
whom he repeated his statement as to
the object of his shooting. He insisted
that ne was not an anarchist, and said
that his wife, a French woman, had
confined him in lunatic asylum. The
prisoner in making this statement did
not appear excited, but there are indi-
cations that he is insane.
The minister of interior has tele-
graphed to the project in the provinces
that the attempt was directed against
the grand chamberlain and not against
the king.
A police sergeant who was the first
to seize Feito makes the following
statement:
After the kings carriage had passed
Feito, who was standing in front of
me, raised pistol and fired at the sec
ond carriage in the procession. Before
he could fire a second time I struck him
with my sword. He cried: You wish
to kill me, but L seek the life of the
Duke of Sotomayor, who is the cause
of all my troubles
The Duke of Sotomayor, however,
was not in the second carriage, which
was occupied by the Marquis De La
Nina, the court grand equerry, and two
palace officials.
The project of Madrid, who was in
the last carriage, left the procession and
gave orders for Feito to be taken to the
police station.
Feito is thirty-four years of age and
was born at Posatdas, in the province
of Oviodo. He returned to Spain from
Mexico last June. He was slightly cut
in the head by the police sergeant's
sword. ,..-..'''%'

Address by DR.. George w. Wilson Yes
terday Afternoon.
Although yesterday afternoon was
not pleasant one, a goodly number of
men gathered in the Foy Auditorium to
hear the address by DR.. George w. Will
son at the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation meeting. Preceding the address
two violin selections were played by
Stanley McLane and the notices given
by Secretary LotZe.
Tonight occurs the annual associa-
ton meeting. On Wednesday night the
third number in the entert ainment
course will occur. On Thursday night
Rev. Arson Phelps Stokes will speak
to young men in the interest of foreign
missions, and on the 18th the New Ha-
ven Orchestral club will give a concert
in the auditorium.
The subject of DR.. Wilson's address,
Man in the Image of Cod suggested
the reference to David that he was a
man after Gods heart. The speaker
deplOred the fact that men are willing
to be less than men, that it was easy
/ to degenerate and degrade himself, and
that it was difficult for man to reach
| that high state of development that
| God designed for him. BY the revela-
ton of Jesus Christ we see what God
| intended man to be. God did not make
us for this world. He made the world
for us. He made man for Hinself-to
be a companion to Him. All that we
| lost in the fall of Adam we find in the
Christ the Saviour of the world. God
| Is now bringing back fallen men into
the likeness of His image. We need
Christ and His power to enable us to
be masters of our appetites and pas
sions. Where love dominates lust dies.

CHURCHES CONTRIBUTED
TOWARD THE SUPPORT OF THE
LOCAL HOSPITALS.

Same POstpoMements as Result of
stormy WeaIher-The Amounts Com
trtbuted.
Yesterday was donation day for the
New Haven and Grace hospitals and
the local churches contributed literally
toward the support and maintenance of
these public institutions. In some Of
the churches, however. the inclemency
of the weather materially affected the
attendance and the collections in these
instances were postponed until next
Sabbath. These postponements make it
impossible to give the exact amount
which the two hospitals will receive,
but the present indications point to the
prediction that the sum total will be
equal to and perhaps in excess of the
collections of previous years.

and had held that position for years.
Mr.. and Mrs. Moody and family had
been residents of New Haven for fifteen
or twenty years past. They came here
from Buffalo, N. Y, where Mr.. Moody
had resided for about fifty years before
coming here. He was a member and
was an officer for years of the East
Pearl street M. e. church, Fair Haven,
where also his wife attended divine
worship. He also taught class in the
Sunday school of the church. Mrs.
Moody has been for years prominent in
the work of the W. c. T. L., the man
agernent of Mount Carmel home and
other benevolent institutions. Mr..
Moody was in the seventy-second year
of his age. 1t is thought that the inter-
ment will be in Pasadena,

IN MEMORIAM--BEssIE HOD-

Like some fair flower that early
spring supplies,
That gaily blooms, but even in bloom
ing dies"
The death angel summons from
among us the old, the middle-aged, the
young and the infant of days. but nev-
err does the call from our earthly home
seem so like an "untimely frost" as
when it comes to a life just budding
into it's early spring--full OF promise,
bright with anticipation, beaming with
hope and joy.
This thought comes home to us keen
ly to-day when we look upon the still,
cold form OF one who but a few days
ago was full of brightness and eager
enjoyment of the pleasant things life
offered.
. On Christmas day she sang to her
teachers and fellow pupils of the
Phelps school a Christmas carol so
charmingly, with voice and expression
so fine. that they were all delighted.
: On New Years day she was too i'll to
be present at the roll-call of her
church, but sent the text: Lord, Thou
knowest all thngs;-thou knowest that

Now the voice which promised so
much Of pleasure to herself and her
friends is forever hushed: and the
thoughtful. earnest mind which might
have developed into beautiful charac-
ter and been help and comfort to her
family and friends is gone from this
earthly life. But Faith builds a
bridge across the gulf Of death"-and
all is we'll.
