ALFONSO AND BRIDE.
THE SPANISH MARRIAGE AND At
PENDANT FESTIVITIES.

Stories of the ImpetuOus and Chival-
rOus Ruler of Spain and the Eng
lish Princess He chose For His
Queen-king's Liking for Danger,
1t is many years since there have
been such scenes in Madrid as those at
tending the union of King Alfonso
XIII. and the Princess Victoria Eu-
genie Julia Ena of Battenberg. When
May 81 was chosen for the religious
ceremony making the Spanish king and
Princess Ena one the various func-
tons incident to the wedding were
carefully spread over the period before
and after that date, so as to make a
long programme of national rejoicing.
The marriage is very popular in
Spain. The people like the idea Of
strengthening in this way the nations
friendship with England. and the
charms of the princess chosen for their
queen are not lost upon a race noted
for gallantry and love Of romance.
The king was born May II, 1885.

homes all over the country are other
sweet voiced American singers, and
they ought to use this precious gift Of
music for the entertainment Of their
friends. The woman who can sing is
welcome everywhere. She has power
to draw even the groutiest and stingi-
est of humanity out Of his mean self
awhile. Hostess and guests alike re-
joice at the coming Of the woman who
can sing.
No less welcome is the girl or woman
who can play either piano, violin, man
dolin or guitar or even the modest little
mouth harmonicon. Real melody can
be drawn by an expert from this child
ish instrument. Every girl cannot af-
ford a piano, but few there are who
cannot get a violin or mandolin, and
any one who loves music can learn to
play. An important branch Of social
entertaining consists in being able to
play for dancing, whether on the violin
or piano. Every girl and boy who
wants to be anybody socially nowadays
must know how to dance.
In selecting musical pieces. vocal or
instrumental. the general rule to be
followed is not to choose anything
dolorous or lugubrious. At party one
evening I heard that doleful Daddy"
song droned out till it broke the party
up, SO far as merriment was concerned.

ENTERTAINING FRIENDS.


We don't go to parties to have
good time directly. We go to make
other people have good time. In do
ing that, however, we generally find
that the pleasure comes back tenfold
to ourselves.
The question to ask ourselves if we
accept invitations to social gatherings,
whether we are young or old, married
or single, is, What can l do to add to
the company's amusement? There is a
vast number of things, and everybody
can do at least one or two of these
things we'll. There are recitations.
singing, playing instrumental music
for dances or otherwise, directing and
calling the figures for dances and tell
ing fortunes by palmistry or cards.
There, too. are stories, conundrums
and parlOr games unending.
A good short recitation Is liked by
everybody. Any woman of intelligence
and sympathy who trains herself to
stand up straight and speak distinctly
In pleasant voice may venture to COM
NIT selections to memory and speak
her piece" at party. For this pur-
pose, Of course, comic selections are
always best-short ones. Comic mon
ologues or even dialogues are enjoyed.
Books containing all manner Of reci-
tations are to be had cheaply. so cheap
ly it Is a wonder young people do not
avail themselves more of this oppor-
tunity for giving pleasure to their
friends. Besides the comic Rotations
those that are full Of true sentiment,
even though they contain something Of
pathos, are to be commended. One Of
the most impressive parlor recitations
I ever heard was Owen Meredith's
"Aux Italiens." with its subtle. "jas-
mine flower" keynote.
In the humorous line not long ago l
heard Poet Edwin Markham's radiant
little six-year-old son Virgil entertain
uproariously a tableful Of guests by
firing off a string Of conundrums he
had got from a book. Again In the
humorous line once heard Mrs. Eliza
beth Gilmer, brilliant Dorothy Dix,
read her own inimitable MARY Jane
and the Highah Culchah," and nobody
who listened to it will ever forget it.
But never recite any horrible or
CHASTITY tragedies. Never!

an obstinate spirit entirely irreconcil-
able with the preconceived commission
ideas when Expert Calderhead's pro-
gram was submitted The railroads
offered a schedule materially in ad-
vance of the commissions program
but the commission had spent consid
rates and refused to abandon them.
So the railroad traffic officials and the
railroad commissioners argued all day
and then Commissioners Lawrence
and Fairchild. and also Expert CAL
derhead. went home.
Will Play Two Engagements.
Chairman Fairchild tried to explain
to the Great Northern how easy 1t
would be to grant Bellingham the same
terminal rates on joint hauls originat-
ing in o. r. & n. territory in this
state that have been accorded to Seat
tie and Everett. General Freight Agent
w. W. Broughton and Assistant Traf-
fic Manager II. NJ. Adams looked wor-
ried and tried hard to see the advan-
tage of the proposal, but they failed.
So Mr. Fairchild went off unsatis-
fled.
Members of the commission say they
believe they have accomplished some
thing; that a new meeting may induce
the roads to see a great light. The
railroads are skeptical of being con-
WINGED. And there the matter rests
at present. Everybody thinks the Col
fax and Walla Walla dates will be
filed by the Fairchild troupe. and II
they are the distance tariff schedules
can be brought forth again. They serve
as scenic properties no local house can
provide. so the commission will carry
them with that body when 1t opens for
the Walla Walla engagement.

PaImistry and Card Fortune
Telling.

The girl who has learned to read
ones fate in his or her hand is the
most welcome possible guest at par
ty. There are excellent books on pal
mistry now. and they can be had cas-
Iy. By using ones leisure hours awhile
a good working knowledge Of the lines
in the hand can be secured, and this
knowledge may be made source Of
unending entertainment to ones &C
quaintances. The same Is true Of card
fortune telling or teacup fortune tell
ing.
But be careful never to predict any
thing dreadful, like sudden death, acci-
dent or misfortune in love. Guests are
to be made happy and merry at a so
cial party.

is dark, and both are athletic and es-
pecially fond of horseback riding The
king is devoted to motoring also and
has had many narrow escapes from
death or serious accident on account
of his reckless riding. When he was
counting the Princess Ena at Biarritz
he used to make the twenty-five miles
which lay between her hotel and his in
about three-quarters of an hour. Once
he gave the counselors of state bad
scare by attempting to take trip up

into the car, but one of his attendants,
realizing that his majesty was about
to do a foolhardy thing, thrust his
sword through the delicate envelope Of
the balloon and let the gas out. The
young monarch has experienced some
amusing episodes on his automobile

Railroads Are Indifferent.

The railroad commission, which
bounced back when it struck the O. R.
& n wall of Indifference toward a
proposal of compromise on joint wheat
rates, rallied yesterday afternoon to
the new maximum distance tariffs that
been neatly set down on clean white
paper for railroad consideration. AS
nearly as the railroad traffic men
could understand the series of figures,
the commissions expert had collected
the minimum rates applying on differ
ent classes of merchandise and had
used them as basis in working out
the maximum charges that were to be
permitted the railroads.
Had these figures been accepted, all
the railroads had to do was to send
the schedule to a printer and then
apply them to all tariffs Afterward
if any railroad reduced any of the
tariffs in any certain locality the rail-
road would be subject to suit for I'M
lust discrimination by some other 10
cality or some shipper situated else
where in the state.
The railroad traffic men did not
raise strenuous objection to maxi
mum distance tariff schedule, but show

PenrOse Favored President In Mat
Ter Of Barnes Appointment
ROOSEVELT S HELD RESPONSIBLE
FOR RESTORING POWER TO THE
OLD PENNSYLVANIA REPUB-
LICAN MACHINE.

President Roosevelt is in a measure
responsible for restoring power to the
old republican machine in Pennsyl-
vania, is the report that comes from
Washington. Following the death of
Senator Quay and the graft exposures
the machine went to pieces, the old
bosses were endorsed, and the people
for the first time in many years had
say. Senator Penrose, upon the
death of Quay, attempted to fill the
shoes of the former boss of the Key
stone state, but he fioundered around
and could not make good. The ma
chine was down and out, and Penrose
went with it.
In those days Senator Penrose was
not in good standing at the White
House. He called occasionally, but ont
frequently, and was never one of the
presidents advisers. But things chang
ed. and circumstances developed which
took Mr.. Penrose to the White House
on business very close to the presi-
dents heart The president had NOM
| mated his assistant secretary, Ben
pjamin F. Barnes, to be postmaster
of Washington, D. c. Senator Till
man was wrought up over the appoint
ment because Burns had only a few
months previously ordered Mrs. Nor
ris forcibly removed from the White
House offices. Tillman swore to de-
feat Barnes confirmation. Meanwhile
the nomination had been referred tC

Penrose is chairman. After a short
controversy and following several pro-
! longed conferences with the president
[ Senator Penrose secured favorable
report on the Barnes nomination, anG

| his confirmation.
Was Purely Personal.
The appointment of Barnes as post
master at Washington was purely per.
sonal with the president. No one rec.
commended Barnes for the place, bu
the president wanted to reward hin
for his long, faithful service at thu
White House. Naturally, under the
circumstances the president was ex
tremely anxious to have his appoint
ment confirmed and was under man!
obligations to Senator Penrose for the
interest he showed in the case an(
for the influence he brought to beal
to push the nomination to vote.
The circumstances attending thu
calls of Senator PenrOse at the White
House were such as to establish cor
dial relations between the Pennsyl
vania senator and the president, ant
the report went out from Washington
that Penrose was on terms of init
macy with the chief executive and fire
quently called in consultation will
him. This had a great deal to do Will

While the people are still insisting
on reforms, they are willing to accep

try.
Penrose had the sagacity to lay low
and wait for his opportunity, but whel
use of his advantages gained through

RAILROADS HARD TO PLEASE
So Say The Members Of The State
Railway Commission
LOSE MUCH TIME IN DISCUSSION
DATES WILL BE KEPT BY TROUPE
AT COLFAx AND WALIA
WAllA.

Washington railroads are hard
lot to please. The railroad commits
out notifications in existing tariffs
and took the trouble to come all the
way to Seattle to submit their prOpos-
ais to the roads. Then the commits
sioners with only $4,000 appropriated
to pay their expenses. spent two whole
days lingering around in the hope the
roads might look with approval upon
their projects. So anxious were Com
missioners Fairchild and McMillin to
find something the railroads would APP
prove that they rushed so precipitous-
ly into conference that they forgot in
their haste to notify Commissioner
Lawrence there would be a meeting.
Mr.. Lawrence had to hear of the
meeting by indirect rumOr and came
all the way from Olympia to shed the
light of his experience upon the prob
lens of traffic management. And
Owen O. Calderhead, the commission S
rate expert, went to the trouble OF
preparing and bringing with him a
schedule of rates he deemed to be
fair But despite all these manifesto
tons of anxiety to provide gratuitous-
ly a new system of railroad manage
ment the railroad officials showed an
utter lack of appreciation and refused
to accept the commissions plans.
The barrenness of the cOmmissiOn's
engagement was softened by an agree
ment on the part of the roads to build
a new depot at Pasco when the Riparia
line is assigned for construction. A
reduction in grain bag rates from 81
to so cents per 100 pounds was also
granted.

SAYS GLOBE |S
 BOOMING
Town Is Prosperous, and Joint ure Will Receive Over
 wheIming Defeat,

George J. Stoneman, a prominent attorney of Globe, arrived in the city yesterday morning. He is here at the present time as a delegate to the Democratic Territorial Conyent.on which will be held in the city tomor- row. Mir Stoneman has been resi- dent of the Territory for years. and has always taken very active part in Territorial politics. having represented Gila County at almost every Territorial convention which has been held in the past ten years. He takes great pride in the town of Globe, having lived there for years when there was but little to attract people, and now that it is coming to the front, he feels that it is only receiving what is jus tice. When asked concerning condi- tions generally at Globe, Mir. Stone man said:
 "It does not seem fair to ask me about Globe when I am in Bisbee. be- cause I never met Bisbee man yet who would admit that there was any camp in the country which could ap- proach it in excellence. But as a matter of fact Globe at the present time bids fair to rival Bisbee al no distant date. Of course the mining in- dustry whereby Globe exists is very much the same as in Bisbee,
 T think that the speculative days of Globe are over. and that 1t is now be- ginning to take on the vigor of full grown city. There are many first-class mines in the district. and many small ones which give promise of being pro 6ucers. At the present time a great deal of attention is being given to the building of fine structures, and there are under course of construction some of the very finest buildings in the Ter
 ritory-notable among which are the new court house. do not think 1t would be exaggerating to say that Ill i the past year the sum of two hundred thousand dollars has been continually employed in building. It seems that as soon as a number of new buildings are completed the erection of more IS Immediately undertaken. Everyone lseems to be prospering, and the pros \ perity is of the permanent nature we have at the present time about eight | thousand people in Globe, and the number Is being increased every day.
 Politically. do not think there is
 a shadow of doubt but what Globe
 and Gila county will go Democratic this fall by large majority. and can assure you that as far as the joint statehood issue is concerned it is only q waste of time to put it to vote
 because I firmly believe that joint
 statehood will not receive seventy-fve lvotes in all Gila County. The people of that county realize full well the
