Prisoner.

II has been minated from Rome so
often since the election of pope Plus
X that reconciliation was to be
brought about between the govern
ment of Italy and the vatican over the
question of temporal power of the
pope that il has received general cred
it, and the efforts of the new pope are
supposed to be enlisted in that direc-
ton. II was upder Pope Plus TX. that
the temporal power Of the pope was
lost aud the eternal city occupied by
the army Of the king of Italy and
much Of the church property confscat-
ed to the state, and it will be singu-
larry fitting If the present pope. who
assumed the title OF Plus X. upon his
election should bring abont reconcile
iation. II this were effected it would
end the so-called Imprisonment of the
pope in the vatican palace and result
in the venerated head of the Catholic
church being seen in the streets of
Rome
It was a stormy time which Plus
TX. experienced The first outbreak
against the exercise of temporal power
by the pope manifested itself in 1849,
when the forces opposed to the pope
gained eoGtroi os the city and made
the pope a practical prisoner in the
Quirinal palace. The provisional gov
eminent sought to force a new minis
try upon the pope but he refused to
have anything to do with it. Realizing
his inability TO govern the church or
his states, he sought opportunity to es-
cape from Rome. Aided by the minis
ter of France and attended by Cavalier
Filippani he succeeded in escaping
from the palace by a trick and started
on the road to Gaeta. 1t was exciting
and pathetic. the fight of the troubled
pope. But he found a safe haven at
Gaeta. 1t was his intention to seek a
temporary refuge in Spain, but Ferdi-
nand H. prevailed upon him to remain
at Gaeta.

Fountain Pen Perfection.

a Long Felt Want.



Any reliable time saver is eagerly welcomed

most forceful illustration Of this condition o.
things in recent years was the enthusiasm with
which thelfountain pen was greeted. 1t seemed
TO mean the saving Of so much time and annoy

phenomenal

DYNAMITERS AT
MICHIGAN MINE
Home of Superintendent Of Sell
wood s Mines Destroyed by
Explosion.

Ironwood. Mich, July 1.-THE
residence Of Earl Walton, superin-
tendent Of the Brotherton and Sunday
Lake mines at Wakefield. one mile
east on the end Of the Gogebic range,
was destroyed by dynamite early today.
Not less than twenty pounds Of dyna-
mite were used. A lighted fuse
probably set off the explosive, No
connecting wires could be found.
Sections of the house and veranda
were blown 200 feet, but the family
were asleep upstairs and escaped
serious injury.
Superintendent Walton has no idea
as to the identity of the perpetrators
or their motives.
A stike occurred at the mines In
January against a 10 per cent cut in
wages. Some of the old employees
found their places taken when the
two mines resumed shipping.
Sheriff Olsen has sworn in an extra
force of deputies. The Brotherton
and Sunday Lake mines are important
iron ore producers and are owned by
Joseph Sellwood Of Duluth.

SEA CHEATED
OF A VICTIM
BY Merest Chance Dora Larson
Did Not Sail on the
Norge.

Trivial circumstances kept a girl
from sailing on the Norge, brought
great happiness to the family Of John
N, Larson, 2921 Third avenue S, and
will soon unite with her uncle and
relatives Dora Larson Of Stockholm,
who landed yesterday from the Oscar
II. and is speeding westward.
This joyful combination is the re-
suit of a little urging a week ago on
the part of friends in Christiania. Dora
Larson, aged 20, bought passage to
America on the Norge. On the way
to the steamer she was urged to stay
over for the Oscar II.
This boat arrived in New York,
Saturday, with all aboard safe and
happy. The passengers came ashore
yesterday. Then for the first time
Dora heard of the terrible fate Of the
Norge and at once notified her rela-
tives in Minneapolis of her escape.
Any anxiety experienced by north
westerners for the safety of friends
on the Oscar H., following the loss of
the steamer Norge Of the same line,
was dispelled this morning by the an
nouncement from the A. e. Johnson
company that this staunch new steam
er had locked Saturday, having made
| the trip in the remarkably short time
of nine days from Christiansand.
| In sharp contrast with the burden
| Of grief which has come to scores OF
families in the northwest from the loss
of the Norge those who have had
friends, aboard the Oscar will have
a double measure of happiness.
The Oscar Is supposed to have
brought the names of Norge passen.

When the convention met at $40 p.
m. 1t was to select a candidate for the
vice presidency, and nominating
speeches were made in behalf Of for
mer Senator Henry G.. Davis of West
Virginia, former Senator Turner of
Washington, former Senator Harris Of
Kansas, Senator Carmack of Ten
nessee and Congressman Williams of
Illinois. Vague rumors began to be
heard of Hateful telegram from
Parker, and Cutberson of Texas pre-
cipitated a crisis by rising and oppos-
ing the nomination of candidate for
the vice presidency until the conyen-
ton was sure it had not before it the
duty of again nominating candidate
for the presidency.
A recess full Of excitement followed,
and when the convention met again at
$50 only the leaders had been en-
lightened as to the real purport of the
telegram from Judge Parker. Gov
ernOr Vardaman Of Mississippi de-
| manded that the truth be told the
convention-that the chairman of the
New York delegation reveal to the
| delegates the text Of the Parker IeIe-
gram.
50, Williams Speaks.
John Sharp Williams Of Mississippi
| was introduced. He told the conven-
ton that a telegram had been re-
ceived; that despite rumors to the con-
trary, the telegram did not. contain a
word that could be construed as a.
demand for a gold plank in the plat
form; and that if there was error in
the telegram, it was can error of judg-.
ment proceeding from a too sensitive
spirit of honor He gave the tele-
Igram to Governor Vardaman and it
was read amid intense silence followed
by a cheer, then by silence more in
| tense than before.
Mr. Williams resumed. He de-
clared the platform was ~purposely ST.
lent on finance, since that was not an
issue in the campaign; that the in
tent had been to give to the party
a platform on which any candidate
Parker, Cleveland, Bryan-might
stand; upon which the party might
be united. He declared every man
in the resolutions committee was full
ly aware Of Judge Parker's belief in
the gold standard. And he asked
Senator Tillman to read to the con-
vention the reply which the leaders
| had framed, to be sent to Judge Par
ker If the convention SO decreed. This

KUROPATKIN IN A BOX
His Present Situation Regarded as
Decidedly Dangerous.

st. Petersburg, July IL, 1886 Pm
General Kuropatkin, according to
private advices from the front, will
not make a serious attempt to hold
Ta-tche- kiao midway between Kai-
chau and Hai-cheng, where the rail-
road connects with the branch from
Niu-chuang.
Developments Of the Japanese
strength on the Siu-yen road seem to
be forcing a Russian concentration
between Hai-cheng and Liao-yang,
but preparations seem to be making
to defend the former as long as posi-
BILE.
General Count Keller's force,
which was a little southwest of Lao
yang, has apparently moved farther
southwark to stay the advance Of the
Japanese direct from Che Feng-
Huang-cheng- Hai-cheng road.
The pressure on the Russian left
rear as it withdraws continues.
There Is now seemingly practically
nothing In the way of Japanese oc-
Cupation of Niu-chuang and the COM
pletion Of the Japanese line across the
head of the Liao-tung peninsula. The
fertilization of the passes of the Fem
shut range and the semi east
of Liao-yang is reported.
With pressure on two sides, If the
Japanese have any serious intentions
of pushing home their advance in the
direction Of Mukden, General Kuro-
patkln's position would seem decided
ly dangerous. Their northern ad-
vance posts are at Tai-din-sin and
Siao-syr. Whether the Japanese op-
erations north will be pressed In the
face of the rainy season. which is not
regarded as probable here, the Jap
anese seem assured of the command
of the mouth of the Lao river val
ley, which will give them a new base
with two railroads. one direct to Muk-
den and the other to the Submitting
river and the imperial high road. The
Submitting road opens vast posi-
bilities for thanking if an advance is
begun at the end Of the rains.
Severe fighting is not improbable
north Of Ta-tche-kiao, but the belief
is growing that Kuropatkin does no
intend to accept a general engage

Senator Tillman had declared that the

sonally, that telegram has insured him
the support of the gold democratic
forces in the states where they are
strongest, namely: New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode island
Delaware, West Virginia, Maryland
and Indiana. It has lost him support
