Household Fads of
Theatrical Stars

Despite their reputation to the con-
trary, MANY actresses possess decided
bumps of domesticity, and when they
reach the position of the successful
star they are apt to indulge in a
household fad of some sort. Few wo-
men stars of to-day live in hotels, ex-
cept when they are on the road. They
have both town and country places,
the town house generally being in New
York or one of its suburbs, and the
country house as far removed from the
city as possible.

ATTEMPT ON LIFE
OF SPANISH KING
Is Alleged That Designs Were
Made Thereon.
EXCITEMENT AT BARCELONA

1t Is Said That as King Was Leav
ing the Exhibition in that City q
Bomb Was Exploded with Intent
Upon His Life.
Rome, April 1.-THE news of the at
tempt on the life of King Alfonso by
tn explosion of a bomb as he was
leaving the exhibition at Barcelona
produced the deepest impression here
especially among the members of the
Spanish colony of Rome, who are
quite numerous. King Victor Em
manuel learned the news while presid
ing at his weekly conferences of the
cabinet ministers and he personally
telegraphed to the Spanish king his
warmest congratulations on his es
cape. The papal secretary of state
Cardinal Merry del Val, when inform.
ed of the attempt hastened with the
news to the pope, who exclaimed
Poor, misguided souls! There Is
no excuse for their crime"
The pope then instructed the papal
secretary to telegraph the pontiff's con.
gratulations to King Alfonso on his
escape.
King Alfonso arrived at Barcelona
yesterday for fortnight's visit to Cat.
alonia. He was accompanied by Pre-
mier Maura and Minister Linares and
a numerous suite. The visit of the
KING to Barcelona, the hot-bed of Re
publicanism, caused the greatest dis.
quiet in Spanish official quarters, as
it was feared the Republicans and So
cialists would vent on the king thei1
hatred Of the premier, whose strong
measures dealing with the strike
rioters had made him very unpopular.
AS a preventative measure large mum.
bers of anarchists and other suspects
were arrested last week and a cruiser,
three gunboats and large force OF
gendarmes were sent to Barcelona.
The Spanish king was accorded q
respectful reception at Barcelona and
shortly after his arrival attended a
Te Deum at the cathedral. The streets
were decorated with flags and lined
by enormous crowds of people. 1t was
estimated that there were 200,0 900 per
sons in the streets and the pressure
was so great that the cordons OF
troops were repeatedly broken by the
people who were anxious to see thei1
monarch, and the king was thus sep
arated from his attendants.

ALABAMA POLITICS.
State Primary Election Promises To
Be Lively One.

Birmingham, Ala.,. April 1.-The
state primary election, comes off next
Monday and to say that the state is
in a turmoil puts it mildly. This coun
ty, the largest in the state, is espe
cially torn up in the election of dele
gates to the state convention who will
elect delegates to the national Demo
cratic convention at ST. Louis. Two
sets of delegates have been put out fol
the state convention-one headed by
Ex-Governor Johnston, who is supposed
to represent the ultra anti-Cleveland
sentiment, and after he is disposed OF
to be for the strongest man who has a
clean record in the party and who die
not affiliate with the boiling Palmer
Buckner opposition. The other ticket
headed by the Hon. Frank White rep
resents themselves as the conservative
element of the party whilst they do not
say in so many words that they are
opposed to Cleveland, they are known
10 be opposed to Bryan and his plat
form, and Hearst especially.
Hon. Rufus N. Rhodes, who was one
of Cleveland's most ardent supporters,
and who was known to be one OF
Cleveland's advisers in the distri.
button Of offices in Alabama, is can
didate for delegate at large from the
state, and 1t Is claimed that the White
delegates to the state convention will
urge his selection as delegate at large.
The Johnston delegates, it is claimed,
will support Governor Johnston for
delegate at large, or some man who
represents the anti4C1eveland senti-
ment in the party.
Both tickets, it is claimed, are will
ing to go without instructions, but the
White ticket is the more pronounced
on this point. There are 80 names
on the White ticket and % on the
Johnston ticket, and Jefferson county
is entitled to only 80 delegates. The
issue is now fairly made up for the
voters on next Monday, and the IS
names on the two antagonistic delega.
tions have turned themselves loose in
a lively squabble for votes. Rhodes
is thechampion of the White delega.
ton and Johnston of the opposition to
Rhodes.
A great deal of personal feeling is
being thrown into the campaign and
this, together with the scramble for
the county offices, leaves but little
else to do in this city before the cleo
ton.
