AGED HOLY GHOSTER IS
STARVING HERSELF FOR RELIEF

Philadelphia. Aug. 14-So faint from
fasting that she could hardly stand. Mrs.
Caroline Lang and the one other surviving
member of the Holy Ghost society today
conducted farewell service in the tenn
pie. at No. 1l2s South Eleventh street.
where for three weeks Mrs. Lang guarded
the dead body OF Mrs. Julia Rutman,
whose resurrection she expected.
The two surviving members Of this
strange society cannot understand why
their priestess Mira Meta. does not come
in power and prevent their being turned
out OF the temple. which has been sold
for factory purposes.
Neighbors Of the mysterious shrine to-
day declared than for more than an hour
they saw Mrs. Lang upon her knees be-
fore a brick pillar in the basement. The
coroner declares that the little old woman
Is starving herself In an effort TO appease
Mira Meta Her cheeks are sunken and
her voice is so weak that II can scarcely
be heard. The old man who shared in
the last service appeared in but little
better plight. He was so weak that after
leaving the house he tottered and fell.
In preparation for the dismantling Of
1.-THE Temple the elaborate altar that
had been reared when the society first
flourished was removed Saturday, and
Mrs Lang refused TO say where the last
services were conducted.

TO PROTECT
SECRETS OF
.WARSH|PS

Washington. Aug. 14.--It is probable
that the next Congress will be called up
on 20 pass a law whereby the designs OF
the warships under construction by the
United states government will be kept
strictly under the eyes OF the navy de-
partment alone.
II has been a matter of common knowl-
edge for some time that other countries
have known practically all about the
plans for the vessels building for the
United States, I'm spite OF the efforts OF
the department TO keep them secret. The
reason for this has been given. The plans.
supposed To be confidential are on file AT
the returns office OF the interior depart
ment. where they may be consulted by
anyone
As the law reads now. copies of all
plans and specifications must be filed with
this branch OF the government. While the
most elaborate precautions have been
taken TO maintain secrecy regarding the
new boats % the government, all that the
agent OF foreign power has 10 do Is TO
visit the office OF the interior department
and have everything put before him.
The submarine boats are contracted for
with the stipulation that at no time
shall the secret OF their construction be-
come public property. The navy depart
inent is much exercised over the fact that
all the machinery for the preservation Of
their secrets is set at naught by this old
law which requires that copies OF all
plans shall be filed at the interior office.

IL Is true also that the laborers were
not promptly paid and that matters were
becoming congested on the railways and
steamers. With the large addition TO
the population caused by the influx OF the
canal laborers. the supplies for living
were exhausted.
This caused the prices to rise and soon
the laboring classes were not earning

CAPTAIN FORCED CARD
SHARP To REFUND WINNINGS

New York, Aug-14-The first real live
ocean gambling story to reach New York
In several months was brought In yester-
day by the passengers OF the French liner
La Bretagne. 1t is the same old story-a
marked deck OF cards, a lone loser and
row.
According TO the story, Chicago man
and New Mexican were engaged In
quiet game of draw poker for the first
days out from Havre. On the evening OF
the second day. the man from Chicago
was $50 winner His opponent said poker
was not his game, and suggested they
play pinochle. The Chicago man forth
with produced a pinochle deck.
The game ran on into the night. with an
anxious crowd OF onlookers present. Pre-
sently the Chicago man had 5000 OF the
New Mexicans money. The game was so
one-sided that the little black man." as
the New Mexican was called aboard. be-
came suspicious and found that the deck
was marked.
He objected with word and deed, and
the passengers helped.
Captain Poncelete was called upon. Af-
ter looking into the matter the Captain
informed the Chicago man the money
would have TO be returned. This was
done. and serious fight was averted.

PRINCESS
DEPARTS
HURR|EDLY

The gossips OF the Smart Set are dis
rope OF Prince Henri Galard de Bearn
et de Chalais and his WIFE who was Miss
Beatrice Ross winans. OF the wealthy
Baltimore family of that name.
Two stories are being told nj Newport
explanatory OF their sudden departure from
the gayeties Of Newport life. That least
DISCUSSED pertains TO a cablegram received
from Paris summoning them home be-
cause Of the serious illness OF Mrs. Win
ans the mother OF the princess. The other
story relates TO the Indifferent social sue
cess achieved by the prince and princess
Credence Is given 10 the latter story be-
cause OF the startling charge that recently
thrilled all Paris, made by the proud
Pris~e de Sagan that Prince de Bearn ct
de Chalais is in reality just plan Mr..
Bearn and that Prince de Sagan has the
only legitimate claim 10 the dual title now
borne by the husband OF the Baltimore
woman.
Society, however is still wondering II
the princess really cares whether her hus-
band Is OF a prlncely line or not Prior 10
her marriage Miss Winans was quoted as
declaring with all positiveness that she
cared not one jot about a title. Whether
she will adhere to that resolve. should
her husbands title be taken from him,
is q question that was raised at Satur-
days lawn fete and eagerly discussed
today.
Whatever the true facts OF this curious
problem. the prince and princess sailed
yesterday on the Vaderland for Paris and
the brilliant August season here must go
on without them.
