"Who is the bridegroom" inter.
rupted the editor. His name has

"The groom!" faltered the young
woman. "Why-why, forgot to ask
him, and nobody else appeared to
think of him. But they had all the

think that in the recent investigation of the conditions in the anthracite coal mines children were found working oua the debts of their dead father. the em- ployer refusing to turn over any wages at all. Be fair to the South. The con dition there is no worse than that in the North.
 The carpet bagger'' of past days is responsible for much of the evil that confronts the South to-day. Causing the negro to believe that they were their only salvation, these men were elected to office by the eolored people and grew fat on the spells of office. Since the day of this individual has passed the South has gradually rebuilt her institutions and the condition of affairs generally Is improved. The white man is ever ready to lend a helping hand to their darker brothers in distress. Thousands of d0l- lars are appropriated annually for their schools and they select their own teach, CTS.
 The solution of the problem must rest with the Southern people alone. Let those who condemn the people of Ala bama go and see for themselves and they will find the people of the South as loyal to principal as those of the North. Let the people of the South alone. they and the colored men will work out the prob lem to a mutual understandings

FINE HORSES BURNED
$l5o, 900 WORTH OF RACERS ARE
 CREMATID
The Great Sire Mirthful the Most Valuable of the Lot-Light- ming the Cause of the
 Costly Blaze.

Lexington, Ky. July 22.-A confiagra- tion today destroyed $l50OOO worth of horses. and about $2OO,O worth of prop erty at the Hamburg Stud Farm of John E. Madden.
 The first intimation of the disaster came to Manager Hiram Steele while in bed. He heard a crash and was suddenly lifted some two feet off his bed and thrown to the floor, He attributed this to the seven telephone wires running into his room making connection with the springs of his bed. Steele. barefooted and half clad, rushed from the cottage. The big barn was on fire in dozen places. He rushed towards the barn arousing the help.
 There were over fifty horses in the barn, which had sixty stalls, and was the finest structure ever built for horses in Kentucky. Steele is of the opinion that Mirthful was shocked by lightning, as when he reached the horses stall with the colored groom and Night Watchman Don ley, the famous stallion. an unusually quiet one. was a perfect demon. He fought the groom and Steel and Donley with heels and teeth,
 The efforts put forth to save Mirthful cost John l.. Madden five other horses and John A. Drake, the Chicago turfman, one colt, as all the others could have been saved had the great sire not been in the barn. The full list of the horses de- stroyed follows:

labor, which in the north would mean the workhouse. The man must work out only the fine, however, as the Su- preme Court has held that he need not work out the costs. The employers of these men must pay the costs, which can not exceed a certain amount. Not withstanding this fact, when colored laborer is fined quite often both fine and costs are paid by the planters who do not care to lose their wOrkmen.
 The men themselves, rather than go to the workhOuse, sign any sort of agree ment. whether they hear it read or not, or whether or not 1t is properly attested. This is the way 1t has been carried on where peonage has existed. In some cases fictitious names have been entered on the docket and no record kept. The result has been that the justices, consta- bles, and all concerned are indicted. Some nave been tried and found guilty others are still on trial.
 The fine for the offense can not De less than $iO00 nor more than 5000 with imprisonment not less than one or more than five years. While recently no i'm dictments have been brought. only three plantations are involved, one in each of three adjoining counties.

Conclave Does Not Expect Pressure
 From Italian Government.
 Rome, July 22-At this mornings ses- sion of the congregation. when Cardinal Oreglia asked if the conclave would be held in Rome. 1t is reported that only Cardinals Martinelli and Steinhuber ob- jected on the ground of possible influence of the Italian Government.
 Cardinal Oreglia, who at the time of the death of Plus TX had favored a proposal to hold the conclave outside of Italy, to- day declared that interference by the Italian Government was impossible, and the proposal to hold the conclave at Rome was carried unanimously.
 The congregation decided that none who participated in the conclave should be allowed to hold communication of any kind with the outside world.
 In 1878 Cardinal Hohenlohe was permit ted to have his meals sent from Rome through which medium, it is said he ad- vised Crispi. the Minister of the Inte- rior of Italy, and Bismarck about the proceedings of ehe conclave. It has been decided that the cells for each car dinal in the conclave hall be chosen by lot. Preparations for the conclave have already begun in the Slstine Chapel. where balloting will occur.
 It is said that an agreement has beer reached by the ecclesiastical and gov ernmental authorities to have the ltal- ian troops enter St. Peters should any disturbance occur during the three days that Leo will lie in State in the chapel of the Sacrament.

FOR ARBITRATION
FRENCHMEN ENTERTAINED AT
 DINNER IN ENGLAND,
The Speakers Vie With Each Other in Words of Good Feeling. Chamberlain Says He's
 Not So Terrible.

London, July 22.-The members of the International Arbitration group of the French Chammer of Deputies, headed by Baron D'Estournelles, who arrived yes- terday, were entertained at a dinner to- night at the House of Commons by 150 members of the House, under the chair manship of Sir William Houldsworth.
 The dinner tonight overtaxed the big dining room of the House of Commons. Among the British parliamentaries pre- sent were Premier Balfour, Colonial Sec retary Chamberlain, Gerald Balfour, president of the Board of Trade, and Earls Percy, Tweedmouth and Glenest.
 Sir William Houldsworth welcomed the visitors, and Baron D'Estourneiles, in responding, said that rarely in the his- tory of the two countries had the con- ditions been more favorable for CO., operation for peace. Arbitration and peaceful solution of international ques- tions. he said, would be not only to the mutual interests of France and England, but also of the whole world.
 He did not suggest a formal treaty on the present suspicious occasion, because that belonged to the domain of states manship, but he expressed the hope that much good would result from the meet ing. Edward had given the signal for in- ternational peace by his visit to Paris and President Loubet had sealed the friendly overture by his sojourn fin Eng land. He spoke of the ability of the ex- tension of the two countries and suggest ed that France and Great Britain utilize the happy moment to make the fullest use of The Hague tribunal
 Premier Balfour moved vote of thanks to Baron D 'Estournelles and said it was the deliberate intention of the two coun- tries to place on permanent basis some organization to prevent the causes of pet ty friction which tended to lead to inter- national difficulties and that he could as- sure Baron D Estournelles that the Gov ernment was determined, if it could, to arrive at some practical method to pre- vent small diseases from developing into fatal maladies.
 Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman, who echoed the sentiments expressed by the presiding speakers, caused amusement by alluding to Colonial Secretary Chamber lain as the "Enfant Terrible" of his party. Loud cries were then raised from all parts of the room for MT. Chamber lain, who, responding, said they would find him less terrible than his reputa- tion. He said he was one of those who believed in the entente cordiale, which depended less on treatis and convntions than on the mutual sympathy of two peo- ples; that sympathy existed and only re- quired occasions like this to call it forth.
 The temporary misunderstanding over the South African war having passed away. he say in the future no possible ground for any serious differences be- tween the two countries.

The largest single tract lies in Baldwin Coun- ty and consists of 10000 acres. A second large tract of several thousand acres lies in Walker County.

Believed That He Left All He Pos
 sessed to the Church.
 Rome. July 22.-The will of the late Pope is still unopened as proved by the fact that his apartment is sealed. Other wise the objects there would have been distributed in accordance with instruc- tions left by him,
 Leo's intimates say. however. they know that the testament begins with advice about religion and morals, and that it declares his firm intention to leave all he possessed to the Church These beauests include present which might appear to be personal property on the ground that no one could claim anything he had du- ring his life as he had generously provid- ed for those bound to him by ties of blood and affection.
 The report published in the United States on the authority of The Rome Tri- buna to the effect that the will had been opened by Cardinal Areglia and that it showed the Pope had left private for tune of 900 was premature and was retracted in later edition of The Tri- buna itself.
