AMERICANS AT BULL FIGHT.
Ferocious Taurus Sickens Many With
Bloody Work.

CHICAGO, November IA dispatch to
the Tribune from Ell Paso, Tex, says:
At the bull fight at Ciudad Juarez yester-
day, given for the American mining conVen-
ton, there was a panic when Felix Robert,
the French matador, who claims to be the
only matador of that nationality, was
tossed in the air and carried from the arena,
bruised and bleeding.
Later the same bull a ferocious beast
from the ranch of Gen. Luis Terras, gov
ernor of Chihuaqua, made run and plunged
its long, sharp horns through Matador
Francisco Alonzio Piquiro, tossing him into
the air first and then dragging him about
the ring, blood streaming from the wounds
in the mans body.
The spectators sickened at the sight, and
women tainted and SCREAMED to be taken
out. The arena was packed with Americans
from every section of the United States few
of whom had ever seen bull fight, and for
a time the situation was serious. Many men
rushed from the sickening sight in horror,
while the women in many instances were
carried out unconscious.
Order was finally restored but most of
the Americans left, deciding that they had
already seen enough of the Mexican and
Spanish national sport, although this was
only the second bull up for slaughter out
of the four marked for the ma tador's
sword.

OMAHA, Neb, November 17.-Speaking

the Interior Department was surprised and
indignant" on account of the $500 fine and
six hours sentence passed on Bartlett
Richards and William G. Comstock for in
closing 212000 acres of government land,
Judge Munger, who imposed the sentence in
federal court last night said:
1.-The Secretary of the Interior has a per-

he wants to be. One would naturally think
he had enough to look after with the af-
fairs pertaining to his Office without seek

Now the inclosing of the public domain

than a statutory offense
when the district attorney was asked
if he had anything to say in regard 10 the
case, he replied that he believed Messrs.
Richards and Comstock had been acting
in good faith as regards the removal of
their unlawful fences, and that they would
continue to act in good faith in the matter
of removing the remainder of their fences.

District Attorney Baxter says he made
no suggestion to the court merely saying
that he was satisfied that Richards and
Comstock meant to comply with the law in
reoard To removing their fences.

Strong Demand for Iron.

ment says:
I'm spite of the very great activity of
blast furnaces in all parts of the country,
every available stack being In operation,
there is strong evidence that the produc-
ton is not equal to the demand, and that.
IL present prosperity continues. there will
be a decided shortage next spring. In some
sections, where the product is usually far
in excess of the local demand, orders are
now being placed for shipments from other
centers; for example, meters In the
Youngstown district have purchased iron
to be shipped considerable distance and
delivered during the first quarter of next
year. at $17.90 at buyers plants. Buffalo
interests. which have been shipping to Chi
cago and other distant points. are receiv-
ing heavy inquiries, some OF which come
from Canada.

KINGS BROTHER DEAD
Death of Count of Flanders at

HEIR TO THE THRONE
ONLY SON, PRINCE ALBERT, HIS
SUCCESSOR.
Striking Resemblance to Leopold
Socialists Likely to Cause Trouble
Over Transfer of Grant.

BRUSSELS, November 1.-THE Count of
to the throne, died at IL 80 o'clock this MORN
to the throne, died at 113 clock this morn
ing. Death was due to Inflammation of the
respiratory organs. The count was born
in 1887.
The new heir to the throne of Belgium is
Prince Albert of Flanders only son of the
late Count of Flanders Prince Albert was
born April 8, 1875, and was married Octo-
Der 2, 1900, to Princess Elizabeth of Ba-
varia. They have two children, Prince Leo
pold, born November 3, 1901 and Prince
Charles, who was born October 10, 1903.
Prince Albert is one of the most popular
members of the reigning house of Belgium.
He is of studous disposition and bears
striking resemblance to his uncle, King
Leopold. Prince Albert has travelled ex-
tensively. His wife, Princess Albert, is also
very popular with the Belgians.
1t is possible that the Belgian socialists
will cause trouble when ii is proposed to
transfer to Prince Albert the present an
nual grant of $4,000 paid to the Count of
Flanders as heir apparent. When the late
count proposed some time ago, to renounce
his succession In favor of Prince Albert the
socialists, who have always denounced the
count for accepting this grant, In view Of
the fact that he was enormously rich, an
nounced their intention of opposing in the
strongest manner possible the transfer of

The Real Marketplace

In McClure's Magazine
for November there is
the greatest assembling of
great industries, represented
in the form of advertising, ever
found in one magazine. This
is one reason why McClure's
is called the "marketplace of
the world" but the other rea-
son is because in its pages are
threshed out the great prob
lens of the marketplace-the
great question of business
honesty.
McClure's demands that
business shall be done on the
high plane of simple honesty.
1t lives up to that in its own
business pages by insisting
that no article shall be offered
for sale that its editors cannot
personally recommend to their
friends. This bars patent
medicines, WHISTLES, cigarettes
and investments that promise
more than any legitimate in
vestment ought to promise.
