JAP SHIPS REPORTED SUNK.

CHIFU, May 19.-Russian refugees
who arrived here today on a junk from
Port Dalny say that the Japanese
bombarded Port Arthur last Monday.
Russian officers who were on Golden
hill, declared, according to the refu-
gees, that during the bombardment a
Japanese battleship and a cruiser
struck mines and sank.
The warships reported to have been
sunk are the battleship Shikishima
and the armored cruiser Asama. The
story is not believed here.

JAPANEsE ENTRENCHING.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 19.-Off-
cial dispatches regarding the DISPOSE
ton of the Japanese forces add little
real interest to the situation, the most
important statement being that there
is a force of 5000 a Khabalen, eleven
miles southwest of Feng Wang Cheng,
and the fact that the Japanese are
entrenching around Feng Wang Cheng.
The Japanese are keeping in touch
with Stu Yen by means of strong pa
trolls. 1t is believed that as soon as
the weather permits they are likely to
occupy Stu Yen, which is important
strategetically, owing to it's situation
at the junction of three important
roads.

ROBBERS PERFORM
LIGHTNING ACT
Loot Chicago Store FulIof Gus
toners in One Minute and
Get Away.

CHICAGO, May 28.-One of the
boldest and quickest robberies Chicago
has known in years was committed to-
night in less than minute at the shoe
store of Frazin & Oppenheim, 165
Madison street. There were fourteen
customers in the store, and six clerks
were attending to their wants, when
four men entered the place in success
sion, each about five feet behind the
man in front Of him.
One of the clerks started forward to
meet the supposed customers, when
three Of the men drew revolvers, each
robber having two weapons, and orr
dered the clerks and customers to the
rear of the store. While the people
were fastening to obey, the fourth man
took all the cash from the register
1881, and then the four robbers ran out
in Madison street and disappeared.
The.store is slightly below the street
level, but while the robbery was in
progress the doors were open and the
people passing along Madison street
had plain view of the inside of the
store. The robbery was carried out so
quickly that there was no possibility of
interference, and the men escaped.

Although the ceremony was not in

Vial declares that he was drawn into

her long lost son who left home when
fourteen years old. He denied this,
but remained with the family and sup

French Parliamentary Commit.

Ing Law.

PARIS, May 28.-Premier Combes'
announcement that the question of the
separation of church and state would
come up In, January has drawn atten-
ton to the law already formulated by
the committee on the subject. It is a
sweeping measure, the opening clauses
reading:
The republic assures freedom of con-
science and guarantees the free exercise
of religion without restriction, except for
the preservation Of public order The re-
public will neither protect nor pay SAL
aries nor subventions under any form
whatever to any denomination. 1t will
not recognize any minister of religion and
will not furnish any building for the
services of any denomination or for the
lodging of any of its ministers.
The measure further abolishes the
concordat, suppresses the French en-
bassy at the Vatican and makes detail
ed provision for the disposal of the
governments extensive possession Of
church property. In comparison with
the present regime, under which the
clergy are salaried officials and the
minister of public worship is one of the
members of the cabinet, the foregoing
makes a striking change in Iong-es-
tablished secular conditions.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., May 28.-An
onion saved from instant death Rev.
w. S. O'Meara, one of the most promi-
nent Catholic priests Of South Dakota,
and a friend, A. E. Doyle. They were
enjoying a fishing trip to Lake Kam-
peska. A heavy electrical storm came
up and the two took refuge in an un-
occupied cottage on the shores of the
lake. AS the floor was newly painted
the two men did not go inside, but took
up a position facing each other in a
doorway. Father O'Meara noticed an
onion lying in sack nearby. He pick
ed it up and parsed it to Mr.. Doyle, jok-
ingly asking him if he would enjoy
some vegetables. Doyle accepted the
onion and ate a portion of it. Almost
instantly he realized that the onion
had poisoned him. He hastily stepped
a few feet from the doorway to spit
out the onion. Father O'Meara fol-
lowed him. '.-
The two men had scarcely stepped
from the doorway when lightning
struck the building. The entire door
frame in which the men had been
standing was shattered and the walls

WORRY HASTENS
DEATH OF QUAY
Pennsylvania Senator Yields to
the Last Sleep, Which He
Seemed to Court.

BEAVER, Pa, May 2S.-Matthew
Stanley Quay, senior senator from
Pennsylvania, died here today of
chronic gastritis.. The funeral wfli be
on Tuesday, May 81, and burial will
be at Beaver cemetery.
Senator Quay's illness began about
a year ago. 1t was recurrence of the
trouble that beset him during the lat
ter part of 1900 and the early days of
January, 1901, when he was undergoing
the strains Of campaign for re-eIec-
ton to the senate
Never strong man physically, Sen
ator Quay prided himself on his en-
duranee and believed firmly that out
door life would restore him to health.
1t was this thought that took him to
the Maine woods for several successive
summers. Those who accompanied
him on his trip to the wilderness say
he was untiring in his energies. He
delighted in roughing it. Col Quay, In
health, was a great eater and his trou-
4bles of later years dated, 1t is said,
from overdraughts on his vital system
through eating, smoking and the great
nervous strains which he underwent.
Last Trip 10 MAINE.
Last summer, after the political stu
alton had cleared up in Pennsylvania,
Quay went to Maine, travelling miles
and living in the open. At that time he
complained of weakness and continued
loss of strength. He began to lose
flesh, his stomach refused to assinai-
late, nutrition failed and weakness fol-
lowed. On his return from the woods,
Quay was bronzed as a veteran and
looked sturdy enough to live years.
He celebrated his SEVENTEEN birth
day at Beaver last fall, and at the time
seemed in excellent health. The loss of
weight, however, weighed constantly
on his mind. Day in and day out he
went to scale to see what his avoir-
dupois was. He dropped in weight so
persistently that the alarm which per-
vaded his own mind spread to friends
and family. The result was that he
forsook his duties in the senate and
betook himself to Florida, hoping that
the mild weather there would bring re-
lief.
Still No Relief.
Florida failed to restore vitality.
The senator went back to Washington
and then to Philadelphia, where he was
placed under treatment Specialists
ordered him to Atlantic City, hoping
the sea air would aid in recovery, but
the loss continued gradually. Physi-
clans advised. him to return to Wash
ington. There his condition continued
unchanged. One day he was out. The

American taste. 1t demonstrates, that
while entertainment of an ephemeral
and frivolous character may have a
passing vogue. that the taste and at
lection of the play-going public are
| inseparably attached to the very best
that authorship has been able to pro-
duce Shakespeare himself did not
despise the ephemeral. Indeed, some
ot his scenes are so obviously written
to meet the ideas of his own particu-
lar day that there could have been
no thought of permanency in his mind.
Yet they survive as the best, and the
American public. together with the en-
tire world, continues to recognize
their pre- eminence, not only in schol-
arship and poetry, but as popular en-
tertainment. Charles B. Hanford's
productions of Shakespearian plays
! have been uniformly successful. They
have attained a measure of apprecia-
ton such as is seldom extended to eff
forts of so sincere and intelligent a
nature. And the present season, with
all it's disappointments for other
styles of theatrical attractions, has
proved no exception to the rule His
Richard III has been greeted by
audiences whose enthusiasm fully at
tested thorough sympathy with the
lofty and inspiring drama that has
served to exploit the greatest genius
produced. His performance of Petru-
chic in The Tanning of the Shrew''
has been hailed as an embodiment of
classic comedy in sparkling modern
form, for Mr.. Hanford has the happy
faculty of presenting Shakespeare with
the same intelligent lucidity that would
characterize the work of modern
playwright. In THE Marchant of
Venice" a more sombre side of his ex-
traordinary talents is developed. His
picture of the revengeful money-lender
is one of the most vivid character por-
traitures that the current stage has to
offer. Despite adverse conditions,
Shakespeare, as presented by Mr.. Han
