during the next few years he built the
present transept of the cathedral, a
graceful central tower. the Chapter
House, all in the style of the late
Romanesque period. His successor
finished the magnificent choir and the
octagona1 apse that covered the relics
of st. Olaf, and from that time the
building grew through all sorts of ex-
uberent imaginings. which left upon
it traces of the splendor of the early
Gothic period mingled with the clas-
steal Romanesque in such a manner as
to create a monument of absolute
beauty. 1t has been repeatedly dam
aged by fire and the elements, but is
now in the hands Of devoutly careful
restorers. The great central tower
with it's four corner turrets was not
completed until 1901, and 1t is a mat
ter of great regret to the Norwegians
that the other reservations have not
been completed in time for today's
ceremonies. Indeed it will be decades
before the restoration is completed.

EMMA LEDOUX IS
GUILTY OF MURDER
so JURY DECLARED SATURDAY
Theory of Prosecution Was That She
Committed Crime to Avoid
Prosecution for Bigamy.

STOCKTON, June 23 = Mrs.
Emma Ledoux, who mas been on trial
for killing her husband, A. N. Nc
Vicar, March 13 last, by giving him
poison and then placing his body in
a trunk, was tonight found guilty of
murder in the first degree
The jury deliberated six hours
Two jurymen are said to have held
out for lesser degree than murder,
for which the punishment is hanging.
The woman was apparently prepared
for the worst and evinced little emo
ton when the verdict was announced,
and kept the remarkable composure
which she maintained through the
trial. She shook hands with her
friends and attorneys, and thanked
the latter for the hard fight they had
made for hfer.
Time for passing sentence was set
for July 10. Her attorneys made a
motion for new trial, and an
nounced that they would take an ap-
peal. 1t was shown that the woman
married McVicar in Arizona several
years ago, and that she later mar
ried the man named Ledoax. 1t was
the theory of the prosecution that her
motive for killing McVicar was the
fear of prosecution for bigamy.

RECOGNITION FOB
YAKIMA SECURED
PROVISION FOR A Bull DING SITE
Included In Public Building Bill
Through the Efforts of Congress-
mnn w. l.. Jones.
WASHINGTON. June 22.-George
n. TuesIey, Editor Herald, North
Yalima;. VIII have $4,000 i'm pub
lie building bill for site for North
Yakima. w. l.. JONES.

The above message, received by the
news for every resident of the city,
and is a further evidence Of Congress-
man Jones industry in behalf of va
kima, and also of his ability to get
what he goes after
The pressing need of a government
building in this city has been apparent
for n long time, and the formation of
the eastern Washington district of the
federal court makes it more necessary
than it was before. Congress has adj
mitted the need many times, and this
is a pretty good indication that the
hopes of the people who realize it most
are to be realized
So far as is known there is no site
that has been selected, or is being held
in view by any one here. There are
not many that are really desirable, al
though there are one or two that could
be bought for a reasonable price that
are very desirable. The suggestion
was made last summer. when the mat
ter was up for discussion, that n site
on Mob Hill would be the best place.
in view of the fact that the time is
coming when a portion at least of that
section will be within the portion Of
the city Immediately adjoining the
business section, If not in it.
1t Is known that Congressman Jones
has worked hard to have the appropr-
alton included in the public building
appropriation bill, and it is believed
tln& Zee t. -
appropriation being made. Acting on
this presumption, it would be well for
the people who have desirable sites to
sell, to offer them for inspection, and
state what they will sell them for. The
sooner n federal building is started in
this city. and the sooner it is com
pleted and occupied by the federal
court, postoffice, land office and other
public institutions, the better it will
be for the city.

COST REID A YEARS PAY.
For Two Lonsworth Receptions Ann
bassador Paid $1,000.

The annals of American representa-
ton at the court of st. James record
no more brilliant function than the re-
ception given in Dorchester house by
Ambassador Reid in honor of Mr.. and
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth. The beau
tiful mansion in Park lane, with its
spacious rooms and priceless decora-
tions, formed a perfect setting.
Mrs Longworth was attired in sim
pie yellow silk gown. the plainness OF
which was relieved by jet trimmings
on the bodice and sleeves. Her jewels
consisted of diamond dog collar and
a diamond necklace.
Her personality favorably impressed
everybody. More than once the re-
mark was passed as she beamed upon
the guests
How like Teddy's smile
The floral decorations were those
provided for the previous evening dim
ner. Nothing was wanting for the en-
tertainment of the guests Bullets
were arranged in various rooms and
supper was served in marque in the
garden. while dancing went on in the
ballroom.
1t is probably no exaggeration to
say that the functions of the last two
nights cost Mr.. Reid his yearly am
bassadorial salary og s17.5Oo. but he
has certainly given Mr.. and Mrs Long
worth entertainments which in brill
liancy and perfection of arrangement
it would be difficult to excel.

gained, though, If the roller could be
moved downward occasionally. Ven
tilation above it could then be easily
effected by pulling down the upper
sash.
Again, in many bedrooms it is COM
mon to have muslin curtains that cover
only the lower half of the window
opening. They are more transparent
than the shade, yet afford privacy
while person is dressing. Light for
the operation is usually secured by
running the shade Up as far as it will
go. Now, 1t will be seen that if the
shade roller can be moved up and down
the curtains would not be needed, for,
by lowering the roller, plenty Of light
would be admitted above it, while the
shade would serve as screen in front
of the lower sash.
A.. man named Stone has invented
means for adjusting a roller instanta-
neously at any elevation. HisAmechan-
ism is designed to go on the roller, and
the latter acts exactly as it would UNI
der ordinary circumstances except for
its change of position. The device
ought to improve the methods of regu-
lating the light and air in a room, and
should be serviceable in schools and
business offices, as well as in private
homes.-New York Tribune Farmer

One of the birds was shot and it fell

had been shot the flock lowered over

1t was after night before the flock

One Man Receives Fatal Injuries
New York City.-One man was
killed and two others severely in
jured in desperate battle that was
waged at noon high UP on the steel
framework for the new Plaza Hotel,
at Fifty-ninth street and Fifth ave-
nue.. The man who was killed vas
Michael Butler, retired policeman,
who, with the other two that were
hurt, was employed as a special po-
liceman in the building. The spec
ial policemen had been stationed at
the building to prevent trouble be-
tween the union and the non-union
men employed there.
The fight occurred eight stories
above the sidewalk, where the spec
ial policeman had no better footing
than the planks laid across the iron
Orders. The ladder leading down
to the seventh floor, the only avenue
of escape, had been taken down be-
fore the attack was made.
Butler died soon after he was re-
moved to the Flower Hospital. John
]. Cullen, 33 years old. of 10 East
Thirty-ninth street, was also taken
to the Flower Hospital. He has in
ternal injuries, Commissions Of the

bruised. He was taken home. Four
ironworlSers were arrested.
O'Toole identified four of the
union iron workers as among those
who had struck him In the fight.
They were arrested and locked up
in the East Fifty-first street station
on charges of felonious assault They
gave these names: John Enright,
twenty-eight years old, of No. sos
Amsterdam avenue; William Kuren,
thirty, of No. 156 East One Hun
dred and Twenty-frst street; John
Behan, twenty-five, No 1853 Tenth
avenue; George M. Smith, forty-two,
No. Sol East One Hundred and For
ty-sixth street.
O'Toole told the police that there
had been ill-feeiing between the
union and non-uniOn men employed
on the new hotel ever since the work
started. The union men annoyed the
non-union men by dropping iron
bolts through the Orders from the
upper stories until matters became
so bad that the services OF the three
policemen were secured. Butler
seemed to be singled out especially
for attack. He was pelted with iron
bolts and wrenches, and although he
made some show of defense he was
soon knocked unconscious by the
rain of iron. Then he was thrown
through the Orders and fell upon
some planks, stretched across the
girders on the sixth floor, where he
lay unconscious until the police from
the East Fifty-frst street station
called the ambulance for his re-
moval.
