The Woman Who Naas.

There is the woman who nags, and
many do 1t without being conscious
of it. She is often perfectly well bred
in all other prospects. but she loves
her husband so that she can't help but
ply him with questions. The why's
and where's and whens and Il told
you so" become a daily routine which
exhausts the patience of the best of
men. A thing that has once been
talked over and threshed out is gool
form at least to let alone. Constant
reference to a fault or a mannerism
is the cause of more marital infelicity
than the average wife dreams Of
Good manners with happy ways of
doing things, and good sense, cheer
fulness and tact should guide every
woman who bears the honor and digni
ty of wifehood toward the channel OF
these happy days.

pearance was that of one who had
passed through hours of pain and
horror. His garments were covered
with dirt, his face begrimed with
smoke, but he had forgotten his i'll,
ness and would not leave scene Of
catastrophe while there was chance
for him to do good.
Il have never seen so quick, 50
noble and SO efficient response to duty
in my life. The memory of the Brock:
ton horror will forever be indelibly
impressed upon my mind. But accom-
panying the memory will also remain
the inspiration and edification that has
come from the bravery, the self-sacri-
flee, the utter disregard of his own
safety at the call of dire peril to his
fellows which witnessed in the con-
duct of my friend, Father O'Rourke.
1t was an experience of a lifetime, and
one that will ever make me proud of
the noble qualities exhibited by men
in behalf of their suffering brethern.
"Father O'Rourke and the other
brave heroes who risked their personal
safety to save human life in an awful
disaster deserve the highest encom-
iums of all. Their example is one that
adorns our American manhood with
undying lustre."

Adrian IseIin.

Adrian Iselin, the New York banker,
who died March 2S, in his 87th year,
was a generous benefactor to thc
Catholic Church, the gifts made by
him and his family aggregating near
ly a million dollars. Mr. Iselin's gifts
were made mainly from the respect
that he had for the religion of his
wife and family. Mr.. Isclin was mar
ried in Baltimore, in 1915, to Miss
Eeonora ODonnell, daughter of Co
lumbus O'Donnell, Of that city. Miss
ODonnell was related to John Carroll.
the first Catholic bishop of the Unitcu
States. For forty years they and their
family made their principal home at
New Rochelle, N. Y. Ten years ago
Mrs Tselin built ST. Gabriels church,
at New Rochelle, one of the most
picturesque church edifices on Long
Island Sound. Together with rectory
and home for the Sisters of Charity,
it is said to have cost nearly $3.50, 900.

heroism of Father o,Rourke,

Michael j. DWyer, Well-knOWn
Boston lawyer and lecturer, has writ
ten for "The Herald" of that city a
graphic description OF the heroism
displayed by the invalided priest,
Father John A. O'Rourke, in the work
of rescue following the disastrous
boiler explosion in Growers factory,
Brocton, Mass. Mr.. Dwyer lectured if
Father O'Rourke's parish the night
before the disaster and remained as
the guest of the rector over night.
Father O'Rourke had to forego the
celebration of mass that Monday
morning, not only because of the ILL
ness resulting from a sleepless and
suffering night, but because he was
actually unable to raise his right arm,
so cramped and crippled was it with
rheumatism. Mr.. Dwyer sat with the
priest awaiting the doctor when Gin
stantly the air was filled with dull,
sickening roar, and we saw a huge
cloud of smoke, timbers, bricks, metal
pipes and a mass of other debris rise
hundred feet in the air. Fathef'
O'Rourke, from his knowledge of the
premises, grasped the situation at
once.
"'rhat's the boiler at Growers fac
tory he said. i must go at once
Ills pain and the helplessness Of
his arm seemed to leave him in al
instant. He seized his coat and rushed
out of the house, forgetful alike OF
his bodily suffering and the great risk
he was taking in going out, sick as he
was, into the cold, raw and wet day.
Il shall never forget the awfulness
of the next fifteen minutes, 1t was
a scene from hell.
Meanwhile my heroic friend,
Father O'Rourke, and plunged into the
midst of the ruin and danger. Having
reached the scene within minute
after the disaster, he was able to
call to the victims pinned beneath the
machinery and heavy beams to put
their faith in God, to declare sorrow
for their sins and to administer a gen.
eral absolution to those of his faith
who responded to his priestly exhorta-
tions. Some thirty or forty of the dy-
ing saw him, or recognized his voice,
and accepted his sacerdotal offices,
while to six or eight of those who were
near a means of exit he was able to
bring the means of escape.

to affixing an indelible blackness
which made him the subject of COM
ment for week or more. He has
decided to leave the ball playing of
the administration to Captain Anson,
whom he offers to back against any
city clerk in the country. In the mat
ter of golf and tennis, however, he
declares that he is prepared to meet
the mayor of any city in the world,
not excepting Edinburgh, where the
municipal ownership figures come
from.
Possessed of fine library and an
inveterate reader of newspapers,
Judge Dunno is constantly alive to and
| abreast of the topics of the day. He
is fond of music, and when the spirit
| moves can sing the old Irish songs
| with very good effect. A member of
! numerous Irish societies, he is active
in keeping green the memory of the
| land of his fathers. A stanch Roman
Catholic, he is respected commune
cant of that church.
Concerning his election Judge
Dunno had but little to say beyond ex-
pressing his appreciation of the honor
which had come to him. II shall do
my duty. l shall keep my pledges. /
enter Office free of promise to individ-
uals. My appointments shall be made
without haste and for the best inter.
ests of the community. AS yet have
made up my mind definitely as to two
appointments only-my private secre-
tary and a member of the Civil Service
Commission. On the latter I shall
name Joseph Medill Patterson. He is
a young man of character and cour-
age, true to his convictions, and will
be a power for good in the position.
Other appointments will be made only
after consultation with men whom
believe to be sincere and true, my one
endeavor being to select lieutenants
who shall serve the people we'll.
Concerning municipal ownership I
have expressed myself during the
campaign, and at this time l may do
little more than reiterate those views
am pledged to see that no more
franchises for street car operation
shall be given any private individual
or corporation. When sworn in as
mayor I shall proceed Immediately to
establish municipal ownership under
the terms of the Mueller law. That
law on the statute books of Illinois
provides that the present lines can be
bought, or new lines built, with street
car certificates without adding one
cent to the Indebtedness of the city
or one cent to the taxes of the citizen.
Hereafter under municipal owner

Vulnerable millionaires out of Chica-
go's streets will be devoted to increas-
ing the prosperity of the city, the COM
fort of all the citizens through the i'm.
proved service, the lowering of taxes
and better pay for street car employees.
Municipal ownership will restore to
the people their rights in their own
streets"

The War I'm the East.

London, June 2l.-The Petersburg
correspondent of the Times wires that
three parallel columns of japanese are
moving to the northeast with the ap-
parent purpose of converging on Possiet
Bay, which is sixty miles southwest of
VladivostOk. A large feet of transports
has sailed from Gensan for the same
point, according to the correspondent.
The anti-peace newspapers continue
to bring long kilograms from their cores
pondents in Manchuria asserting the
readiness of the army to go on fighting
for a year, Unnecessary, and the activity
of the japanese is being used to the ut
most to stir up warlike feelings in the
people.
The japanese are operating along a
front nearly 400 miles in width, extend
ing from Mongolia to Corea. The Rus
slams are in the dark as to just where the
attack will be launched, Private tele-
grams are of a pessimistic nature, con-
tradicting the reports of correspondents.
ChefoO, June 2l.-Local missionaries,
who before the war had stations in Corea
aud Manchuria, complain that they are
unable to secure mission funds which
were deposited for the payment of current
accounts in the Russo-Chinese bank at
Port Arthur. The bank authorities, in
reply to all demands for the money, say
that the japanese still hold the bank
books and that this prevents any settle
ment of the obligations.

William Rufin Cox, the most distinc
guished surviving Confederate officer, Of
North Carolina, who was in the eighties
three times the representative of the Raj
eigh district ia Congress and for num-
Der of years subsequent thereto the Sec
reta,y of the United States Senate, was
the hero of another conquest today.
With Bishop Joseph ID. Cheshire, OF
Raleigh, of the diocese of North Caro-
lima, as the officiating clergyman, Gene
raj Cox today led to the hymeneal altar
Mrs. Kate Cabell Claiborne, of Rich
mond, Va, widow OF The late Herbert
Augustus Claiborne and popular social
leader at the Virginia capital. General
Cox, who is now 70 years Of age, made
the last charge at Appomattox and he
was twice the recipient ofpersonal thanks
from General Robert f. Lee publicly
rendered on thebattlefield for conspicuous
bravery and gallantry in battle. The
bride and groom will later come to Gen
eral Cox's magnificent plantation and
country estate in EdgecOmbe county, n.
c., where they will remain few days,
when they will go on an extended tour.
Both of the contracting parties and es-
pecially the groom, have wide circle of
friends in nearly every State in the

Affairs i'm Russia.

St. Petersburg, June 2l.-The speech
made by the Gar to the representatives
of the Zemstvo Congress, in which he
renewed his declaration that he is irrevo-
cably determined upon calling repre-
sentative assembly, and asked the help
of the Zemstvos in bringing the people
and himself closer together, has created
an excellent impression throughout this
city.
There is excellent authority for the
statement that the chances of early peace
are not as bright as they were several
days ago. The suspicion which the
Japanese entertain of Russia's sincerity
in entering the peace negotiations is said
to be responsible for this fact.

Mary Rogers Case.

Windsor, VT, June 2l.-The chance
that Mary Rogers, who is under SEN
tence to die Friday Tor the cold-blooded
murder of her husband, Marcus Rogers,
will get another reprieve, looks brighter
TODAY. The action of her counsel in
procuring a writ of habeas corpus from
United States Judge Wheeler, in
Brattleboro Monday night, took the
State officials by surprise This was in
dicated by developments today. Attor-
new General Fits was to appear in
Windsor this afternoon TO argue on the
writ in opposition 10 the claims OF
Mrs. Rogers counsel. He sent word that
he would be unable to be in Windsor In
time for the hearing and arrangement
was made whereby the hearing was
transferred to Brattleboro. Word of the
change was sent to Judge Wheeler and
to Governor Bell.
1t is considered mere than likely that
Attorney General Fits will not be pre-
pared to argue the case at length, this
afternoon and that he will consent to an
adjournment for a month. In that
event. Governor Bell will necessarily
have to issue another reprieve.
Mrs. Rogers was almost light hearted
this morning over the prospects of a
further stay in her execution. 81 am
still hoping for the best" she said to
her lawyers, who visited her at the
prison this morning. at may be that

Preparations for the execution Of Mrs.
Rogers are complete and nothing re-
mains but the action in court this after
noon. The gellows erected a month
ago, has never been taken down.
Superintendent Lowell Of the Windsor
state prison, received letter from Bos-
ton in this mornings mail. 1t enclosed
a small package OF dark gray powder.
In the note was an offer to the superin-
tendent of $4,000 if he would give the
poison to Mrs. Rogers between now and
the time of the execution
This evening Mrs. Rogers left Wind
sor for Brattleboro to appear in court.

VIRGINIA BANKS

The controller of the currency has
completed an abstract of the reports
made to him by the eighty-four national
banks of Virginia as to their condition
at the close of business May 20, when
the controller called upon them.
The abstract shows that the total re-
sources of the banks at this time are
$74, $50, 647, with liabilities the same.
The total loans and discounts are $43,
660,71J On the 9th of June, 1904, the
total resources of seventy eight national
banks then doing business were S67, :
300, $50 and the total loans and dis
counts $9S, 756, 507. The figures show
an increase of six national banks during
the year, over $1,000, 900 of resources
and about $4,000, 900 in loans and dis
counts.
The best indication of continued pros
perity in the State is the fact that the
deposits, those known as individual de-
posts, have greatly increased in the last
year, the total deposits at the present
time being SAL OS5, 49S, while year ago
the total was $50, 799, 16l. The people of
the State are better better off to the tune of
"a, 900, 900 with national banks alone,
not counting private and other banking
institutions. The individual deposits
are separate from government deposits,
the total of which now with the bank is
81, $50, 46S against 81, 744, lO2 one year
ago.
The capital stock of the Virginia
banks at the present time is So, 2O9, 500,
an increase from one wear ago. The total
surplus fund is 81, 17S, 1876 agains; 3d.
500, $40 June 9, 1904, denoting steady
growth of the wealth Of the banks.
The Virginia banks are carrying
more circulation now than ever before,
the total outstanding of their own bills
being Sc, 3Ss, 152. A year ago the total
was IS, I72, sos, an increase of much
over ore million. The increase is due to
the cheapness of government bonds,
which are put up as security for the cir
culation.
The banks have a total lawful money
reserve of SO, 3S9, 9S7 against 50, 100, SOS
one year ago.

Virginia Primaries.

The large number of candidates and badly
scratched tickets in yesterdays municipal
primary election in Richmond made the
counting Of the ballots practically an al might
job. II is believed that the election has re-
suited about as follows : City sergeant, J. c.
Smith (incumbent); city collector, Frank w.
Cunningham, and auditor, +. J. War
rem (incumbent). The chances are that Po-
lice Officer William II. Wyatt, who closed
Richmond's gambling dens. has been elected
high constable, and Gen. Charles J. Andel J.
son State Senator. Minitree Folkes so far is
ahead of seven competitors for the office Of
commonwealth's attorney. Those elected
members Of the house are probably Glenn.
Powers, Cox, PeytOn, and Massie or Fuller.
AT the democratic primary in Lynchburg
yesterday the only cont ests were between
Thomas d. Davis, incumbent, and Percy K.
Taylor, his deputy for clerk Of the courts,
the majority for Davis being 204. For high
constable K. B. GOode. incumbent, had for
his opponent his deputy. r. L. Dillon, and
received u majority Of 9l2. Only 1,O66 votes
were polled.

obtained for the people better car service than
they have had heretofore, and profess to be
contemplating building better roads in the
