Paris, Jan. 10.-Jean Leon Gerome,
the painter and sculptor. died here to-
day. He was born at Vesoul in 1924
He was conspicuous figure in Paris
society. He was tall and slim and re-
tanned his youthful gaiety and activity,
his snowy hair and moustache alone
indicating his great age. He was noted
for his sparkling wit and always kept
up relations with the younger painters.
The dav before his death, several
friends lunched with NJ. Gerome at his
home, and after the luncheon he took
them to his studio to show them the
statue of Corinth, of which he was the
sculptor. The statue had just been
finished. and he was about to color it.
NJ. Gerome talked with his visitors en-
Enthusiastically concerning the work.
Among NJ. Geromes latest produce
tions were categorical figures represent
ing labor which he executed for
Charles M. Schwab.
The funeral of NJ. Gerome will take
place next Wednesday at the Church

REPUBLICAN SENATOR'S EXPECT TO
FORCE 1T ON.

There Is TO BE More Talk About the
Resolutions Calling for an Inves-
tigatiOn of Irregularities in the
POstOfIice DEPARTING nt-DiscussiOn
of the Nomination of Buchanan Is
Also to BE Resumed-Lntimer on
Good Roads.
Washington, Jan. 1O.-The Senate will
resume consideration of the Penrose
and Carmack resolutions for the inves-
tigation of Irregularities in the Post
office Department tomorrow.
There are still some Democratic SEN
ators who desire to be heard on this
matter, and Senator Spooner has in
timated his intention to make more
extended reply to Senator Carmacks
charge that Postmaster General Payne
has been at all times lukewarrn in the
prosecution of the frauds in his de-
partment. The understanding is that
this question will not be allowed to re-
tain its place before the Senate in it's
present shape for a great length of
time, as Senator German, the leader
of the Democratic senators, has ex-
pressed willingness to have the reso-
buttons referred to the Postoffice Com
mittee, and there is no doubt that it
will be so referred when the discussion
comes to an end.
Discussion of the nomination of Mr..
Buchanan to be minister to Panama
will be resumed at the next executive
session of the Senate. Senator Lodge
has given notice of his intention to
move to lay on the table Senator Nor
CAMS motion to reconsider the vote by
which Mr.. Buchanan's nomination was
confirmed, but will not make the mo-
ton until it is evident the discussion
is exhausted. The motion, when made
will be unbeatable.
Other questions which are expected
to be taken up during the week include
the bill providing for a forest reserve
in the southern Appalachian mountains
and the resolution pertaining to good
roads. Senator Burton has given no.
tice of a speech on the forest reserve
bill, and Senator Latimer of one on the
good roads proposition. Mr. Latimer s
notice is for next Thursday, but Mr.
Burton has fixed no definite time for
his remarks. He will make an effort
to secure passage of the bill after max
ing his speech.
1t is considered probable that there
may be more or less speech making on
the various resolutions pertaining to
the Panama canal question, but there
is no definite programme in this re-
spect.
Senator Cullom expects to report the
Panama canal treaty after the regular
meeting of the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations next Wednesday
The Republican leaders intend to urge
the promptest possible consideration OF
the treaty. and after it is reported to
the Senate, will try to keep it before
the Senate constantly to the exclusion
of all other business.

Brunswick, Ga, Jan. 1O.-In a fire
in the woods last night, a few miles
from the city, two fiat cars of the
Brunswick and Birmingham Railroad,
and number of crossties, were de-
stroyed. The woods were on fire and
the flames soon spread to the side
track of the Brunswick and Birming-
ham, and the cars were on fire before
anyone knew the woods were burning.
Brunswick and Birmingham officials
in the city were at once notified and
an engine was quickly dispatched to
the scene and arrived in time to save
a dozen or more box and fiat cars
which were also on the side track.

TRADUCED THE SISTERS
IN A ROMAN CHURCH.

Three Men Created a Slight Riot by
Doing SO-Priest Declared the Men
Were Anarchists and Implicated
in McKinIey's AssassinntiOn.
Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 1O.-Three men
created small-sized riot to-day in the
st. Casimirs Lithuanian Roman Church
on the Southside by making the
declaration that Sisters of Charity
were not good women. The men were
denounced by the pastor, Rev. Father
John S. Sutkeits, as anarchists, and
he boldly declared that they were I'M
plicated in the plot to assassinate
President Mckinley.
The occasion for the trouble was a
meeting to arrange for the work in
the parochial schools of the church.
The usefulness of the sisters in this
work had just been praised by one of
the speakers, when a man in the
audience arose and said I'VE will not
have sisters. They are not good wom-
en-, and being such. should not have
control of our children
Immediately there was confusion.
The speaker was Joined by two 9TH
ers and, standing in the pew, defied
the men of the meeting to attack
them.
A rush was being made for the three
men when the priest told his congre-
cation to let them depart in peace. In
the meantime, police call had been
sent in from the episcopal res
idence, but when the officers
arrived the intruders had been allowed
to depart.
Later the priest said the disturbance
was not raised because of the sisters,
but because the anarchists had de-
c1ared his life forfeited. The reason for
this he is unable to explain. He said
a band of anarchists exists in this city
and holds regular meetings at some
place on Forbes street. He learned
this, he said, from Lawrence Plus. a
college chum of his in Russia, who
drew the lot which made him the
choice of the Reds" to murder Presi-
dent Mckinley. Plus refused to carry
out the plot and fled to Michigan,
where he died.
Father Sutkeits told the police Of
ficials that he was convinced the
anarchists were preparing to take his
life, and tonight his residence is being
strongly guarded by officers.

and further experience convinces me
that / am right-that size of tree alone

in the Dallas News. Congeniality OF
soil and good attention determines the
size more than time. and brings about
the bearing period. Whenever this size

Importance of promoting quick growth
by eVerv means possible in selecting
the most corgenial soil and planting
that which gives the best send-off OF
nut or scion.
The size of tree in bearing often
varies. But upon these general limits
you can depend. No young tree is apt
to bear until it reaches the hight OF
eight feet and has a well-grown trunk
and heavy top, and every tree is apt to
bear by the time or before it attains
five feet in hight, unless crowded so as
to run up like a fishing-pole. The first
fruits are very scant, two or three nuts
to a handful on a tree. But after the
tap root strikes water or permanent
moisture and congenial soil, the growth
Is very rapid as well as the increase in
bearing. Twenty-four to thirty feet is
a pretty and convenient distance to
plant the nuts. This gives room to Gull
tivate between rows.
The nuts should be bedded out in fall
or winter like peach seed. and from
middle of February to March Is, after
they begin to swell and often send out
a tap rot, place where permanently

depredators, as rats, crows. etc. as
they can be bedded in layers in a box
and kept in sand, and it insures a good
stand, for all that tailed to terminate
can be thrown aside and none but the
sprouting ones planted in orchard.
Where one does but feel like setting
apart a portion of his tillable land for
pecans and rough places on sides of

They need no especial cultivation All
this is necessary is to cut grass and

preparation of the soil consists in
