he died. For although Jones was a
dandy and loved to mingle- in the bril-
liant society of the French court OF
Louis XVI. where he was much sought
after by men and women of fashion.
and though he wrote love letters to
others in tke gay capital, there is no
doubt but what he cherished a sincere
affection for Della" as he always call
ed Nademoiselle de Telison in his letters
to her.
Aimee Adele de TeIison was the natural
daughter OF Louis XIV. Her mother
was Mademoiselle de Tiercelln. the
daughter of a French nobleman. whose
family was old but whose purse was
hin. 1t was during the ascendency of
Madame de Pompadour that Louis he
came infatuated with the young girl
and gave her a suite Of apartments in
The palace of the Louvre. She was call

time that Aimee Adele was born. The

and a few years later she was married

Ponpadour 10 an officer of the chanceI-
lerie, one de TeIison. Aimee took the

TRICT NOT REGARDED AS
VERY FAVORABLE.

New Orleans, Aug. 10.-The report
Of sixty new cases of yellow fever
In New Orleans Tuesday and of
twelve up to noon shows how COM
plete the infection Is in the district
below Canal street, very few afflicted
being found outside of this locality,
where the disease was first discov-
cred, and shows only too plainly the
task which the federal authorities
have before them In their efforts to
stamp out the pest.
The situation In Mississippi Is not
SO favorable, as suspicious sickness
was reported at Yazoo City and Holly
Springs Within an hour after this
report had been received Jackson,
Miss, quarantined against YazOo City.
Though the large number of new
cases announced during the past
twenty-four hours had a discouraging
effect the reason given, that many of
them were cases left over from the
day before for investigation, was ac-
copied as promising fewer cases for
the next twenty-four hours. The fact
that the number of deaths was less
than for days past encouraged the be-
lief that many of the cases lately re-
ported are of the violent type, which
has played havoc In the ranks of the
ignorant Italian population.

NUMBER Of DEAD THIRTEEN
FEW MORE BODIES BELIEVED TO
De IN WRECK or ALBANY
DEPARTMENT STORE.

Albany, N. Y. Aug. 10.-A thor
ough search carried on since early
morning has revealed the fact that all
the men and all but one OF the wo-
men employed In the department
store OF the John F.. Meyers COM
pany, which collapsed Tuesday. are
accounted for. About thirty cash boys
out OF seventy-five have not yet re-
ported. but 1t Is thought scarcely pos
sible that many of them are In the
ruins, for the proportion of boys thus
Tar known to be killed and injured Is
small.
These facts lead to the belief that
the number Of deaths will prove con-
siderably less than was feared. The
dead found thus far number thirteen
and there Is hope that not more than
half dozen bodies are still In the
wreck.
Now that the first shock of the hor-
ror II past the people Of Albany have
begun to ask who is responsible.
Mayor Gaus, Chief Higgins Of the Are
department and Commissioner Cantine
Of the department of public safety be-
Neve that the accident was caused
directly by workmen excavating un-
derneath the basement door. who un-
dermined one OF the key brick piers
IN the center OF the building, and this
belief is generally shared. An inves-
tigation will be begun as soon as the

CHAPELLE A VIC
TIM OF THE PLAGUE AT
NEW ORLEANS.

New Orleans, Aug. 10.-Archbishop
Chapelle OF the Catholic diocese Of
New Orleans died during the after
noon of yellow fever.
Archbishop Chapelle had spent
some time In the infected district and
had been of inestimable service In ad-
vising the Italians, who are all Cath
olics, to heed the instructions OF the
authorities. He was a fluent linguist
and could mingle with them. He was
stricken Friday last, but the diagnosis
Of the case was not confirmed until
Saturday.
Archbishop Chapelle recently re-
turned from Havana. He was for
merly apostolic delegate to the Phil
ippines, where he was located shortly
after the American occupation Of Ma
nila. He was one Of the most famous
Catholic prelates in the United States.
as he was a personal friend Of the
late pope, and his associations with
Plus X. were said to be of the most
friendl9k haracter.

FlVE-YEAR-OLD YOUTH.
Mother Hopes to Create Distaste for
Liquor By Gorging Boy and
Death Follows.

Louisville, Ky.-Because she piled the
child with whisky and wine that she
might sicken him and create a distaste
for the liquor, Mrs. Eliza Thurston's
f1ve-year-old son is dead. Coroner Har-
ris Kelly said his death was due toacute
alcoholism.
Thurston came into possession of a
Jug of wine and quart of whisky, and
he and his wife INDUCED in a celebra-
ton. When they reached the stage of
intoxication they piled the child freely
with the liquor.
Some time later the boy was found
unconscious. A doctor was called in,
but the poison had taken too deep a
hold on the little victims system to be
shaken off, and death finally ensued
from aQnvulsions.
The mother told Coroner Kelly that
in giving the child liquor she thought
to dose him sufficiently to make him
have a distaste for it.
After full investigation the coroner
is satisfied there was no criminal in
tent and that at the worst it is a case
Of ignorance in parents, so he will not
order prosecution.

Guthrie, Okla.-In his petition for a
divorce from his wife, DR.. D. Rose, until
recently of Chicago, makes the sworn
statement that in 1901, at one o'clock in
the morning, his wife rushed to his room
in his Chicago home, raped on the door,
and in an angry way cried out to him:
You are wanted in hell-put on your as
bestos suit" The divorce petition was
filed in the district court at Oklahoma
City, naming his wife, Alice Rose, as
defendant. Mr.. Rose relates that they
were married in Norfolk county, Canada,
May 6, 1879, and that their one child,
Edith, born in 1888, is now married.
DR.. Rose, in his petition, says that in
1892 his wife made the statement: Il
will ruin your business in Chicago;
will spend every dollar you can earn and
make life hell for YOU" He also says
she has put into effect the threat since
then. He alleges that ever since mar
riage he has been practicing physician;
that he practiced his profession in Nor

Chicago and engaged in practice. He
alleges that Mrs. Rose objected, and
made therefore threats. He AYERS that

business was dull and she hoped the doc

In his petition DR.. Rose makes the fol-

his wife: THAT when Edith, their
daughter, reached the age of under
standing, Mrs. Rose told her Rose was
beneath his wife and her family; that all
her aunts, except one, on her fathers
side were servants. That Mrs. Rose
told Edith her father associated with
improper persons and low women, and
