JOSEPH JEFFERSON

VETERAN ACTORS END MAY
 COME AT ANY MOMENT.

West Palm Beach, Fla, April 1S.-10 p. nl.-Joseph Jefferson's condition re- mains unchanged, except that he is gradually growing weaker. His trouble is a complication of diseases from which he suffered last summer. His physicians regard his condition as critic- al in the extreme, and .e would not be surprising if he should pass away at any moment, yet he may rally and live for days or even weeks. The veteran actor realizes that his end is near, and looks forward to it without fear. All hope for his recovery has been aban- doned by his family.
 For a number of years past MT. lief ferson and President Cleveland have spent a week or two of each pear to- gether fishing in Florida. It was on his return from one of these fishing trips that Mir. Jefferson's illness developed. He went to Hobe sound about three weeks ago on his annual fishing outing, and returned about ten days ago to his home here slightly i'll, having taken cold and fever. He improved for a few days, but suffered a relapse He held his own until yesterday when his disease took a turn for the worse, and it was seen that the end was near.
 At MT, Jeffersons bedside are his wife and sons, Charles B. and Frank Jeffer- son, and a granddaughter, Marion Jeff ferson, and Mrs. c. Symons, his sec retary, Carl Kettler, and his nurse, Ma bel Bingham. Dr. Potter, his physician, and Dr, Worlsy of st. Augustine, who has been called in consultation, remain with him all the time f,,

Sentenced to Death at Moscow--Re- fuses to Plead.

Moscow, April 1S.-The supremee court this afternoon sentenced Kaleieff, the slayer of Grand Duke Sergius, to death. ..5
 The public were not admitted to the trial. 5
 Kaleieff refused to plead. He declared he was not in the positio n of criminal before judges, but was a prisoner taken in a civil war.
 The only persons present through the trial were members of the entourage of the late Grand Duke Sergius and coun- sel, of whom two were assigned to Ka- leieff. The prisoners mother was not admitted, but remained in the corridor. Senator Defer presided. Senator Shche- gloviteff, procurator general of the de- partment of cessation, was the senate prosecutor. When Kaleieff was arraign- ed he replied ''I am not criminal and you are not my judges. I am your prisoner. We have civil war; I am a prisoner of war, not a criminal"
 Twelve witnesses were examined. Prior to passing sentence the president asked Kaleieff if he would repeat the crime if he were given his liberty. He replied without doubt would re- peat it if ordered by the revolutionary committee, to which I am attached"
 When sentenced of death was passed Kaleieff shouted: Execute your judg- ment as opening as I have acted before the eyes of all.''
 The date of the execution has not been specified.

ATTITUDE OF FRANCE
 TOWARD BALTIC FLEET
SEMI-0FFICLAL TEMPS PUB-
 LISHES 4 STATEMENT.
Rejestvensky's ships Can Remain in French Ports More Than TWenty-fOur Hours So Long as They Do Not En-.
  gage in Preparations for an Act of war--scrupulously Observing Neu- traiity--ITIurst at Japan.

tratstS--tnurSI at Japan.
 Paris, April 1S.-The semi-official Temps this evening publishes state Inent regarding French neutrality which bears evidence of an authorita- tive inspiration, saying:
 While international practice upon land is well defined that upon the Wa- ter is not so exact, differing with differ ent nations. Great Britain and some other countries limit the duration of a belligerent's stay in their ports to twenty-four hours, but France has never fixed limit for the stay of bell ligerents in French ports and contents herself with interdicting the use of her ports in preparations for acts of war. The ministry of marines instructions issued February, 1904, reads:
 '' The duration of the stay of bellig- .erents in French ports when not ac- companied by prizes has not been lim- isted by any special provision.
 consequently strict construction of the regulations would permit Admiral Rojestvenskys ships to remain in our ports even beyond twenty-four hours So long as they do not engaged in prep arations for an act of war. The Jap- anese do not seem to complain of the stay Of the Russian squadrons in our ports but of their stay in our territorial waters Thus Tokio appears to adopt the theory of interdiction to their entry into territorial waters which she did not obsSrve herself at Chemulpo and at Chefoo.
 The Temps proceeds to show that ter ritoriaI waters mean under the French law of March 2, 1888, three miles from low water mark.
 Ut is established continues the Temps, that Admiral Rojestvensky did not enter this limit while off Madegas- car and nothing yet warrants the as sumption that he has been less careful in the waters of Indo-China. There fore the Tokio dispatches go too far in declaring that France permits Rus sia to employ her ports for offensive operations. There is no proof support ing any such assertion of the violation of French neutrality"
 The Temps adds: 'sThe Japanese gov- ernment which has not had any reason thus far to doubt our desire to serupu- lously fulfill our duty as neutrals, will not fail now to show moderation i'll her claims. Similar controversies arise dur ing all wars and are not very serious. !"
 The Japanese legation has not yet re- ceived instructions relative to French neutrality. Therefore the question has not taken an official form and appears to be confined to the utterances of Jap anese newspapers. If an official protest is made the Temps statement prob ably indicates the general line of the French response, namely, that the facts do not yet establish that Admiral Ro- jestvensky has entered within the three mile limit and that France is observing all the requirements of neutrality ac- eording to her established regulations upon the subject.

BIBLE STUDY AND FOOTBALL.

A feature of the training of the Ohio State University's foot ball team this year is an hours hard study of the Bible every evening. Coach Sweetland thinks it's a good thing for the young men.
 This may not be as funny as some thoughtless ones may imagine. Per- haps the Ohio foot ball boys don't study the meek and lowly parts of the Bible. There is much in the Bible that wouldn't tend to soften the football heart, or unnerve the football fist or foot. The dealings of the children of Israel with the Hittites, the Hivites, the Amalekites, the Jebusites and the other ties wasn't always more gentle than the performances on the football gridiron. And even the children of Israel occasionally got sinote in way that didn't feel good. We read: ''Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine. And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts" No, study of the Bible isn't necessarily inimical to good football.
