Lodges Exclusion Proposition Not
 Enacted Into Law.
 Buda Pest, April 2S.-Dispatches from Washington announcing that Senator Lodge's proposition for the exclusion from the United States of all aliens whose immigration is induced by agree ments between foreign governments and ship companies has not been enacted into law have been received with lively satisfaction in government circles. It Is now believed that the agreement with the Cunard line is not likely to meet further obstacles.
 Credit for this favoratle turn of affairs Is attributed to the skillfvI diplomatic intervention of Dr. Hongeimueller. the Austrian Ambassador. who explained to the United States government that the agreement with the Cunard line was not intended to encourage immigration, but rather to restrict it.

Last Tuesday night at the family
residence surrounder by her devoted
husband and loving children, Mrs.
George Wilhelm breathed her last,
and the noble spirit of this good,
Christian woman returned to the Fa-
ther who gave it.
For several years Mrs. Wilhelm has
been in failing health. Everything
that human hands could do was done
for her by her loving ones to relieve
,her sufferings and restore her to
health again, but proved futile.
This long ago was realized by her,
and like true Christian that she was.
she waited patiently, peacefully and
quietly the summons of her Maker,
which came Tuesday night, calling
her home.
The funeral took place from her
residence, Rev. DR.. Borum oficiat-
ing, after which she was laid to rest
in the city cemetery.
Never in our life did we see more
true devotion shown a parent than
was shown this noble woman by her
devoted family. In her death she
leaves a husband, two sons and two
daughters and scores of friends to
mourn her loss.
