EDWARD MAY VISIT CANADA.
London Telegraph Points Out Extraor-
dinary Interest In Such an Event.

London, May 29.--In an editorial ar
ticle The Daily Telegraph this morn
ing strongly favors King Edwards ac-
ceptance of the invitation to visit
Canada
The Daily Telegraph thinks the
British public has not yet awakened
to a full appreciation of the extraordin-
ary interest of such an event, which
would be likely also to involve a visit
to Washington and perhaps New York.
The newspaper recognizes that pos
sibly there are state reasons in the
way of such a visit, but urges that
Canada is living link between the
American republic and the British EN-
pire, and that if it can be accomplished
1t would be not merely historic but
memorable past all example in the rec
ord of royal progresses.
THE alliance Of Japan, the entente
with France, and the better under
standing with Russia, followed by a
visit to Washington and a meeting
with President Roosevelt, which would
be an event instinct with significance,
sealing the reconciliation of the Anglo
Saxon races for ages to come, would
make the years of his majestys influ-
ence more memorable and benefcent
than any equal period of any previous
reign"

MAN DIES, WIFE HURT.
Same Horse Responsible For Two Ac.
cidents Several Hours Apart.

Philadelphia, May 29.-By a queer
coincidence James Jackson, a widely
known farmer of Fox Chase, died in
the Frankford hospital without know.
ing that his wife was in the adjoining
room seriously if not fatally injured,
the same horse having been respon'
sible for both accidents, which oc.
Cured several hours apart.
Mrs. Jackson started Saturday morn
ing on a shopping expedition, driving
young and spirited horse. She had
not proceeded far when the animal be-
came frightened by an automobile and
ran away. Mrs Jackson was thrown
headlong to the road and the wagon
badly wrecked.
The automobilists picked up the wo-
man, carried her to the hospital and
then hurried away without revealing
their identity. The machine, the po-
lice think, belongs to wellknown
manufacturer of this city.
Farmer Jackson learned of the run
away several hours later, but did not
know that his wife had been injured
and supposed that she had gone to the
house of friend In the neighborhood.
Late in the afternoon he started out
In search of the horse, intending then
to return for another wagon in which
to bring Mrs. Jackson home. He found
the animal in the stable of friend
about a mile away, and, mounting the
horse, he started for home.
Being very nervous the horse acted
badly, and Jackson struck the animal.
At the first blow the horse bolted and
threw him into a ditch. He, too, was
picked up unconscious and hurried
to the Frankford hospital, where he
died shortly afterward. He was 69
years old.
Mrs. Jackson is reported to be in a
critical condition. She knows nothing
of her husbands death.

czar,s conflict Wlth ParIlament.

With breathless anxiety society In
st. Petersburg awaits the govern
ment's response to the bold action
of the lower house of parliament Sat
urday, which in censuring the ministry
and demanding its retirement was
like a deliberate slap in the face and
direct challenge, which the govern
ment, though inclined to prefer its
usual policy of temporization and COM
promise, can hardly avoid meeting.
Parliament has burned the bridge
and virtually has taken the step which
the French states general did when it
transformed itself into national con-
vention.
BY Haunting the fundamental laws
and practically declaring that 1t pro-
poses to exercise fuH parliamentary
rights with a responsible ministry 1t
has become in the eyes of the law a
revolutionary body and from that po-
sition there seems no retreat.
The news of the action of the house
came like an electric shock, the peo-
pie generally being as greatly sur
prised as the bureaucracy at the
promptness with which the whole OF
the governments policy was absolute
ly scorned.
The Constitutional Democratic
chiefs are displaying calmness in the
face of the crisis. They declare that
having delivered their reply they pur-
rose to go calmly ahead with the work
before them, forcing the government
to take the initiative.

HAUNTED MAN is SLAIN.

Manner as His Victim.

Duff, one of the wealthiest men of
Clarion, suburb of this city, who
was killed Saturday by his son-in-law,
NJ. A. Burd of Clarion, died, it was
learned, in almost exactly the same
manner and on the same spot as his
victim.
On Nov. IA, 1908, Duff, who lived
with Burd, was sleeping on couch in
the parlor of the Burd home, to pro-
tect his property, as numerous robber-

and there was considerable money in
the house.

The dramatic circumstance under

demned man was going to the gallows.
attracts widespread attention and
further augments the popularity OF
Princess Ena.
Levera was to have been executed
in the neignboring town OF Badajoz,
but the population solicited Princess
Ena's intercession and she spoke to
the king, who consulted with the MN
listers and after cabinet council the
government resolved to grant the re-
quest, as it was, the first petition the
princess had made in Spain.
Thereupon the king issued a par
don and a telegram announcing this
fact reached the prison at Badajoz half
an hour before the time set for the
execution. The march to the scaffold
was about to begin when messenger

Wednesday afternoon.

from mental effort, he had continued
to be a familiar figure in the life OF
Christiania and was frequently seen
with a companion. His sudden remov-
