changes, saying that that work had
been in the hands of an architect of
great reputation. He said that as
result Of his efforts. part OF tho ex-
ecutivs mansion had been spoiled, and
that the office of the President was an
eye.sore and not At to accommodate q
second.class lawyer or doctor. Mr. Dry

Trick in Landing Coolies.

A dispatch from San Francisco last
night says: The scheme of "a Chinese ring
to land 241 coolies and women in this
country, in violation of the exclusion act,
Is proving to be much more serious Of
Tense than 1t first appeared The plan of
the ring was to make 100000 by the
landing here of coolies under the pretense
that they were to be placed in the con-
cession of the Chinese Village Company"
OF the st. Louis fair
Ostensibly the coolies were to be re-
turned 10 China after the fair, but the
Cinnamon had been made to believe that
they would be landed permanently in the
United States With this expectation the
coolies had paid $500 Mexican in the first
instance and $110 in United States money
on their arrival in this city. This last as
sessment upon the ignorant slaves was
made on the ground that there was some
obstruction to be overcome and that $11O
was necessary to pay for a bond to COM
plete the transaction. Another and pos
sibly more serious phase of the official
scandal is caused by the landing Of twelve
women, who confessed to the wretched
purposes for which they were brought.

VIRGINIA MURDER MYSTERY.
Wife of Ex-Mayor Of Charlottesville
Killed by Intruder.


A dispatch from Charlottesville Va last
night says: Mrs. Fannie NJ. McCue wife of
ex-Mayor Samuel ]. McCue, was shot and
killed about 10 o'clock tonight by an I'M
known man. Her husband was also at
tackled and left for dead. The tragedy oc-
Cured at the McCue residence, on Park
street, in the most fashionable section of
the city. Mr.. and Mrs. McCue had just
returned from church, and were retiring
when a man rushed into the bed room,
carrying a satchel and base ball bat.
The intruder struck at McCue, who
rushed for his shotgun in the corner Of the
room. The two grappled. but before Mr..
McCue could raise his gun he was struck
in the face and rendered unconscious.
Selling the weapon, Winchester, which
had been dropped. the assailant fired twice
at Mrs. McCue. One bullet entered the
breast close to the heart, and the second
just over the right eye.
Mrs. McCue managed to reach the bath
room. and in an effort to turn on the hot
water spigot fell headforemost into the tub,
lifelesS There she was found a few min
utes later by her husband, who had recov-
cred consciousness.
The four children Of the family, who were
absent when the tragedy occurred, were
among the first to reach the residence, less
than five minutes later. A man carrying a

one square distant. to the residence of the
former mayors brother, Edward o. Nc
Cue, who is police justice of the city. Push
ing open the double doors he reached the
second floor, which was locked. His eX-
cited manner was noticed by neighbor
who was seated on his front porch, just
across the street Going to the fence, he
called to the man, telling him that Mr..
McCue had retired and that he would have
to ring the bell.
At this the unknown visitor, without say
ing a word, jumped from the porch and ran
across the yard, disappearing down the
street. The police justice firmly believes
that the intruder was the same person
who visited the other McCue family, and
that 1t was his purpose to murder him also

WELCOME TO KNIGHTS.
Frisco Streets Gaily Illuminated In
Honor of Templars

A d;snatch from San Francisco last night
saws. A number of special trains bearing
knights Templars entered this city To-Day.
There was almost a continued procession
I'D Market street of marching comman-
deries, being escorted to their respective
headquarters. First came Worcester, Mass ;
Trinity, Hudson. Mass; Grand Commandery
Massachusetts and Rhode Island; Washing
ton, Hartford, Conn; De Molay, Boston
and Olivet, No. SO, Pittsburg; Calvary and

Portland Maine, Trinity. Manchester N

and Frankfort, Ky.
Special services were held today In con-
nection with the conclave. At night a
sacred concert was given at Mechanics
Pavilion in memory of President Mckinley,
with a chorus of 500 voices. The interior
of the building was a redwood Forest sur
rounding the main audience space, which
was canopied with white cloth and arched
with large electrical crosses and other en-
blemS of the order.
The knights who arrived after dark To-
night received the impression that the
city was alame. The warships In the
harbor were strung with lights and the
white beams of their searchlights crossed
the sky. The Ferry building, with its
tower picked out in green incandescents
and resplendent with great red electric
Maltese cross, crowned the entrance to an
electric highway which extended up Market
street for a distance of two miles, and
which was formed of colonnades, columns
and arches of glowing bulbs. All along the
line Masonic emblems and American flags
hung from every building. The Masonic
Temple was ablaze with lights and Templar
insignia, and emblems hung illuminated on
its walls
The court of honor doomed overhead with
its 5000 incandescents. From stout cables
stretching from tall buildings on each side
of Market street was suspended glittering
bell-shaped mass with a rim forty feet in
diameter, with strings tapering to the top
lights. while in the center of the Web blaz-
ing like Jewels. was seen the sign of the
order.
A huge passion cross and crown and the
motto, I'm Hoe Signo Vinces." all thickly
incrusted with lights, lay in the center of
the web At its outer edge. suspended
from the huge ring at intervals. were other
emblen.s of the order, all richly illuminated.
The nearby buildings were outlined with
lights and hung with notices and insignia.
Between 9Th and 9Th streets was grand

King and Hashogan had any quantity OF
experiences. At one time clouds gathered
so that beneath them, though they were
sailing in sunshine, that they were not able
to see the EARTH the winds blew them first
one way and then another, and one day
when they were trying to land an excited
Wisconsin farmer, who thought demon or
gigantic size was fishing for him, got his
rifle and fired at the monster, luckily with
out hurting anybody
Now that was a long voyage, but 1t was
accidentally so. Long voyages of this day
are premediated. Balloons have crossed
the English channel and landed on the
French coast and vice versa. The first OF
these experiments was on New Year day,
1885 There have been several since. An
otEer great balloon in the same century
made a trip across the Alps. Many recol-
lect a great race from France to Russia
starting from the Paris exposition in l9oo.
One of the airships did succeed in Landing
in Russian Poland. Take my word for IT,
ballooning is in its infancy, so don't be
ashamed to be star-gazer. Washington
is a great objective point and 1t may pc

SERVICE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Only Long-Term Enlisted Men to Be
Sent There.

The general STAFF has prepared an order
of general interest to the enlisted force
OF the army. Heretofore it has been the
practice to send with their regiments to
the Philippines only those men who have
more than one year to serve under their
enlistments. The new order provides that
only those men who have at least two
years to serve shall be sent on service In
the Philippines or elsewhere abroad un-
less .hey promise to re-enlist. The short
term men not meeting this condition Will
be transferred to other regiments in case
the regiment to which they are attached
is ordered on foreign service and their
places supplied with men having the al
lotted time of service ahead OF them

To Replace Historic Buildings.

Plans are being prepared In the office OF the
quartermaster general for new stables at
the national cemetery at Arlington, to re-
place the historic buildings recently de-
stroyed by fire. IT is intended that the new
buildings shall be built on the same general
plans as the old ones. so that they shall
conform to the colonial style of architecture
of the mansion and other buildings built in
the year 1902.

Five Drowned by Launch Capsizing.

A dispatch from Cleveland, Ohio, last
night says: Five men were drowned in
Lake Erie last night as the result of cap
sizing of 22-foot naphtha launch, in which
they were en- route from Cleveland to Yer
million to attend yacht races at the latter
place today.
The first that was known of the drown
ings was when the launch foated to the
beach near Edgewater Park late last night.
Cries for help had been heard by campers
along the shore, but no assistance could be
given in the darkness. The launch is be-
lieved to have been caught in a trough of
the lake, a heavy wind prevailing during
the night.

New Jersey Man Wants Bell Stopped

A dispatch from Montclair, N j. last
night says: A letter has been received by
the rector of ST. Johns Episcopal Church
from Col George A. Miller. protesting
against the ringing of the church bell
The colonel lives on Grove street near the
church and complains that the bell awak-
ems him early in the morning and dis
turbs his rest at night. He declares that
if 1t is not stopped he will start legal
proceedings The church people have
taken no official notice of the letter, but
the vestrymen are framing a reply which
will be sent at their next meeting. Many
in the neighborhood Of the church say
that they like the sound of st. Johns
sweet-toned bell and cannot understand
why Col. Miller should object to It. The
Incident has caused good-natured COM
ment on both sides, but Col. Miller de.
clares that he IL much in earnest.
