POPE INSISTS ON
REFORM IN MUSIC

Pope Plus X insisted upon reform
according to the regulations of his
note on church music given out last
year.
Several interesting technical essays
were read. In the afternoon there
were practice performances of Gre
gorian chant in the seminary adjoin-
ing the cathedral. The congress will
be In session until Saturday and there
will be two grand church concerts
at the cathedral at which old and
modern treatments of Gregorian
chants for voice and organ will be
presented. The program of the first
concert will include only music by
composers of the sixteenth. seven
teenth and eighteenth centuries, the
second only such by composers of
the nineteenth and twentieth cen
turtles.

AWFUL CONDITIONS OF FILTH ARE
REVEALED BY The OFFICIAL HUNT
MADE AT |NST|CAT|0N OF Pre-,

The sanitary condition Of several of
Spokane's cheap lodging houses has
been found to be in a deplorable state.
Inspector Jones of the health depart
ment, acting under instructions from
Health officer Genoway, made a tour
of the different houses yesterday.
He reported to DR.. Genoway that
it is a mystery why more disease has
not broken out among the men living
in these buildings during the hot
weather. He said in many cases the
room occupied by the men are vile
with dirt Apparently the floors have
not been thoroughly swept for weeks.
There are no indications that the
building ever received a decent scrub

There are all sorts of woe preva-
lent among the regular male guests
of the Hotel Victoria, for Sir Daniel
Cupid, the heart-pierctng kid" has
turned trick on the gentlemen habi-
tues of that popular hosiery by
sending a couple of darts through the
heart of Miss Blanche Mclean and
her lord and master CD to be.
The news leaked out this morning.
The couple has been doing its best
to keep the matter secret from
friends until all joshing will be too
late.
Miss Mclean Is the young lady who
gives patrons of the house their tele-
phone calls. L. C. Daugherty is a
travelling man who has been stopping
at the Victoria for a long time. AL
ready there is a marked shortage in
the rice supply of the city, it is said.
Somebody evidently is in danger of a
shower.

Mayor Daggett. Chief of Police
Waller. Police Judge Hinkle and
George Foster, the unterritied," were
before the grand jury today. 1t will
be no unwarranted assumption to say
that city hall graft was the subject
of investigation.
There was some condemnation in
the courthouse as the quartet came
into the building, County Auditor
zach" Stewart looked worried for a
moment and then asked Chairman
Collin OF the board of commissioners
whether the office doors should not be
locked during the presence in the
building of men publicly connected
with so notorious a place as the city
hall.
Judge Hinkle lost little of the
sternness so well known to the regu-
lar occupants of the chair before him
and asked the mayor If he considered
1t wise on the part of the grand
Jurors to bring these men all away
from the city hall at once.

might be open to censure for such an

OBJECTS TO GIVING EVERY
JEWISH FAMILY A SHOTGUN

CINCINNATI, o., Aug. 16.-While
members of two Cincinnati Russian
societies are engaged in gathering
funds to arm their countrymen,
Hirsch Masliansky, who is known as
the Prophet of Zionism," is in Gin
cinnati, and argues against the de-
Tense fund.
He declares it will do the Jews in
Russia more harm than good, since
the government will surely discover
the movement and take drastic efforts
to suppress it, in the fear that while
the arms may ostensibly be bought
for defense purposes, Ney may in
time be turned against the govern
ment itself He says that Russia is
a big factor in the consummation of
the Zionist plans, which contemplate
the reclamation of Palestine, and that
the arming of Jewish subjects would
hurt the cause irreparably.

general movement to that end in Gin
cinnati. The Objidininja, Russian
literary society. and the Labor circle.
composed of Russian workmen, have
taken up the work. Members of both
organizations have been supplied with
subscription cards. An endless chain
system has also been started
The money thus gathered will be
sent to the headquarters in New
York, and from there secretly dis
tributed to agents in various cities In
the Russian empire. The aim is to
supply every Jewish family with ono
shotgun and ammunition. The Rus
sian government prohibits the pos
session of firearms by civilians, and,
therefore, the work of purchasing and
distributing weapons is accompanied
by great hazard.

WOOSTER, o., Aug. 16.-Major
Taggart said this morning a court
martial can not result from the di-
vorce case because the incidents re-
vealed in the testimony occurred over
two years ago, therefore, according
to rules of the army, the matter is
outlawed.
The tale of Mrs. Taggarts slum-
ming trip in San Francisco with GER
tain officers was supplemented by the
story of the trip through Chinatown
of that city. Questions asked on
cross examination of the captain
brought out the story. Taggart says
he took his wife on that trip. He
said:
I'VE came to a room and the guide
said Look in We saw a Chinese
woman disrobed."
Mrs. Taggart's attorneys are try

nauseating.

CHICAGO, Aug. l6.-The reci-
procity convention began its delibera-
tons this morning by voicing belief
in the general dishonesty of the
United States senate. which during
the past few years has continued to
oppose every attempt at tariff re-
form. f. n. Foss. one of the leading
spirits, voiced the sentiments OF NroG-
ably majority by denouncing the
senate as controlled by the monopo-
lies. He said the effort of the con-
vention should be to take the matter
from the hands of the senate and put
it in the hands of the lower house
since the constitution gives that body
jurisdiction over all matters pertain
ing to tariff. He argued that reel
procity treaties are purely revenue
matters.
