their wedding journey. They will 1rst
go to the Doll place in Virginia and
will divide the rest of the summer be-
tween there and this city. In the early
fall they are going out to st. Paul,
where Mrs. Doll, it is said. owns city
block in the most fashionable section.
1t is the intention of the couple to be-
gin the erection of an apartment house

means. comes of good Southern stock.
He served in the volunteers during the
Cuban war, and is considerably young

Before her first marriage, Mrs.
Davis was Miss Anna Agnew and
lived with relatives in modest
home on Sherman street, st.
Paul. Even as a young girl
she was noted for her beauty, and her
marriage to Senator Davis gave her
social advantages that she had not
previously possessed.
OF late years Mrs. Davis has spent
so little time in st. Paul that she is
but slightly known except among the
older residents; and while she made
her home regularly in this city she
was not active in it's social life. She
was fond of out of door exercise and
entertained her friends chiefly in that
way Accomplished as a horsewoman
she spent a great deal of her time in
riding and driving, and in the saddle
presented a striking appearance.

LEGISLATIVE RIOT
AND BRIBERY TALK
Hungarian Diet Is Again the
Breeding Place of
DuelS.

BUDAPEST, Hungary, july ~. -
Deputy Zolmon Papp caused sensa-
ton in the lower house of the diet TO-
day by spreading out on the table TO-
600 kronen in cash, which, he declared,
had been rendered him as q bride to
desert his fellow obstructionists and
leave Budapest. Herr Papp, who Is
that it was former Deputy Dienes who
attempted to bribe him. Herr Dienes,
he asserted, had 10000 kronen, of
which sum he retained 1000 as COM
mission and handed 10000 kronen to
Herr Papp, which the latter accepted
in order to be able to prove his allega-
tons.
Deputy Lovaszy said that the editor
of the Magyar Orszag had been asked
how much money would be required to
buy off that newspapers support Of
the obstructioniSts. A parliamentary
committee was appointed to investi-
gate.
There were stormy scenes this aft
ernoon when the premier, Count He
dervary, began, the debate on the in
demnity bill. The obstructionists stood
up and the chamber resounded with
defeaning shouts, the banging of desk
lids and insults hurled at the premier
from the opposition bench. The sitting
was suspended, but the scenes were
repeated on its resumption and. ulti-
mately, being unable to obtain hear
ing, the premier handed the clerk of
the house a written order moving the
reading of the bill.
When the obstructionists became
aware of this action two members OF
the Kossuth party stormed the presi-
Dental tribune, snatched the paper
from the clerks hands and tore it to
pieces. The tribune was soon filled
with shouting deputies, and midst the
tumult the session was again sus-
pended.
1t is said that two duels have been
arranged between deputies as an out
come of the disorder.
After the session was suspended for
the second time the obstructionists de-
clared orderly debate was impossible un-
til the bribery question had been cleared
up. The sitting was resumed for the
third time and the greatest excitement
prevailed in the lobby.
Deputies CLAY and Polenyi accused
Premier Hedervary of instigating bribery.
The diet was still in session at 10 o'clock
tonight The obstructionists were max
ing prolonged speeches and showing no
signs of exhaustion.

ROUNDING UP THE

Latter Avoid Decisive Fight, but Ex-

FOLSOM, Cal, July 29.-The posse I'M
der the direction of Sheriff Kenna, of
Placerville, and Sheriff Boshevelt, of
Brewer, had brush with the fugitive
Folsom convicts on Greenwood creek and
a number of shots were exchanged, but,
as far as can be learned, nobody was
shot. The convicts avoided a decisive en-
counter and are supposed now to be

corporal of police. who. in addition to
being a corporal, acted as a spy for
the American army and this fact was
generally known. On one occasion,
while within the enemys lines, he was
captured, tried by court-martial for
being a spy, convicted and shot. Villa
NOR was an officer of the insurgent
army and was on the court-martial
that tried and disposed of Gadung. 1t
was for this that Villamor was tried
and sentenced. He has served term
of nearly three years.
His pardon was recommended by
army officers and the secretary Of war
on the ground that Villamor's offense
was really political. and that he was
entitled to a pardon under the presi-
Dental amnesty proclamation of July
A. 1902. The president has approved
this recommendation.
