Appropriation Bills Will Take Prece-

Many Matters on Docket for coneidera.
tion in House.

Washington. April 1O.-The appropri-
alton bills. this week, will take prece-
dence of all business in the Senate. but
it is more than probable that political
discussion will take up much of the
time nominally devoted to appropria-
items. The post office bill will divide
attention early in the week with the
conference report on the Indiana bill.
BY the time these two measures shall
be disposed of it is expected that the
sundry bill will have been reported
from the committee on appropriation.
1t is generally understood taht several
Democratic senators will reply to
Senator SpOoner's speech of yesterday.
Senator German will be among this
number. There Will be an effort made
TO get up the Panama canal bill during
the week. but it would interfere with
the consideration of appropriation bills.

Maria Isabella Louisa isabella I'D,
eX-Queen of Spain, was the daughter
of Ferdinand VII. The reign of that
monarch was prolific of strife. and he
bequeathed to his subjects two civil
wars and an almost perpetual pretext
for rebellion. During his comparatively
short life he contracted five matrimo-
NAL alliances, the first before he had
completed his 18th year. The fifth
transaction was sOlemniZed the year
his fourth spouse died, when he was
united to Maria Christina of the Nea-
politan branch of the Bourbon family,
the mother of the late eX-Queen Isa-
bella.
Isabella was born at Madrid, Oct. 10,
1880. Her father had been induced by
his wife to abrOgate that part of the
Sale law by which females were pre-
cluded from succeeding to the crown.
few years after the last marriage
King Ferdinand departed this life. leav-
ing his eldest daughter, Maria Isabella
Louisa, who was then 8 years old to
rule the kingdom. That young per-
son was Immediately proclaimed Queen
under the regency of her mother Maria
Christina.
For the next seven years the govern
ment of Spain was carried on in the
midst of scenes of bloodshed and insur-
rection. Espareto seized the reins of
power with firm determination to hold
them tightly until the young sovereign
should be old enough to take them into
her own hands. He had a sincere re-
gard for the child Queel, took great
pleasure in directing her political edu-
cation, and she was subjected to purer
ana better influences than she had ever
before experienced. For about three
years she continued under that inf1u-
ence. when, at the age of Is. she was
declared to have attained her majority,
Oct. Is. 1913, and took her place among
the reigning soveregns of Europe.
Marie Christine returned to Madrid
in 1S45 and her restoration to influence
was marked by the marriage of Isabella
III to her cousin. Don Francesca Of AS
sisi, the elder son of her maternal I'M
Gle, Don Francesca de Paula. The mar
riage occurred in 1916. 1t was not a
union of inclination. but one which she
utterly detested. Sacrificed to the in
trigucs of a party whose interests were
SupDoSeu 10 De advanced by its con-
summation. the Queen never experi-
enced the beneficial influence of do
nestle happiness, arrangements and
reconciliations having succeeded each
other alternately during her married
life.
The marriage was barren of political
benefit, for in less than IS months Louis
Philippe was dethroned and in exile and
Guizots political influence defunct.
During troubled reign of 25 years the
private life Of Queen Isabella afforded
a large scope for public comment, and
her fame in a certain direction spread
far beyond the limits of her kingdom.
She was the victim of successive adj
venturers. who combined the roles of
favorites and political leaders A vera
