While Miss Ella Lemon was enter

last evening in honor of Miss Bessie
Louck, some small boys stole into the
summer kitchen where the refresh

away with them. When time came to
serve the refreshments the hostess
was considerably embarrassed. This
is not the first case where minor
thefts of the same character have
been reported and complaints have
been made to the police over the ac-

City Crowded With Visitors.
The city was more crowded than at
the time of King Alfonso's coronation
four years ago and the enthusiasm of
the people was much greater. Sew

Madrid for the wedding and many
American tourists deviated from the
ordinary beaten track of continental

Church Filled.
When the royal couple arrived at
the church the edifice was crowded
with guests. In front of the altar
places were reserved for members of
the British and Spanish royal fami-
lies. Behind them, on one side, were
the ministers of state, then the mem
bers of the diplomatic corps. On the
other side of the church, opposite the
ministers, sat the members of the
special embassies from the Euro
pean countries, the United States and
South America. Behind them were
the ladies of the court and Spanish
grandees, and still further in the rear
were the members of the Spanish
Legislature. A number Of rows of
seats at the rear of the church had
been removed and the space was thus
provided on each side of the main
aisle for the less important guests.
These included prominent members
of society, important civil functional
ries, army and navy commanders and
others.
The Brides Costume.
Princess Ena felt the ordeal

she was pale and seemed to realize

A bomb was thrown at the carriage
in which was seated the Grand Duke
Vladimar, personal representative OF
the Gear of Russia at the wedding fes-

that an official of high rank was to be

Immediately Behind King.
The fact that the carriage occupied
by the Russian Grand Duke had
place in the regal procession immedi-
ately behind that Of the King Of
Spain and his bride, led to the circu-
lation OF the earlier report that the
attempt had been against the reign
ing monarch and wave of anger
passed o-er the populace.
Out of the mass of conflicting reports
many of which are of the most sensa-l
tional character, 1t new seems 'certaint
that two bombs were thrown, one of,
which exploded in the air and the 9TH

feet Of the leading horses attached to

With the special appropriation
Of S1O,O made at the recent ses-
sion Of the General Assembly for
the purchase Of twenty five acres
of additional land for the South
western Industrial Institute the
Board Of Trustees of that institu-
ton has consummated a purchase
which effectually lays the founda-
ton for great State institution
OF learning in Southwest LOUIS
lana. The original twenty-fi five
acres which were donated by Mr..
Crow Girard and his mother six
years ago as an inducement to the
State to select Lafayette as the
location of the school would have
been ample for the immediate
needs Of the school, but not
nearly enough to allow for it's
growth, additional buildings, etc,
which would have soon deprived
the young men of their athletic
field and would have limited to
very small area the space for gar
dens, etc, for the boarding clubs.
1t is also necessary to have sep
arate play grounds for the young
ladies, who are entitled to as much
consideration as the young men.
With the area of fifty acres now
at the Institutes command all
these various problems are hap
PLY solved.

INDUSTRIAL CHANGES.

The industrial world has chang

about the period of the American
revolution there commenced an
Industrial Revolution in old Eng
land, that has affected all the
world. The ancient manor viii
lagos Of England whose tracts OF
titled and pastured lands were
hemmed in from the outer world
! by forest belts, were self sul1icing
communities supplying both lord
and tenants with all their simple
needs of food, clothing and shell
ter. The colonial pioneers Of
America practiced manifold home
~ arts, for commerce was difficult
and self-dependence was the rule.
Factory production by power ma
chlnery has utterly changed the
customs and relations of the peo-
pie. The farm boy has left the
| countryside to count one in the
census lists of multiplying and
expanding cities. All his handi-
| crafts are forgotten that he may

planting potatoes. The girls sew
ed, ironGd and cooked, often
drove the-cows to pasture, helped
plant the corn, perhaps drove to
mill or store. Such children had
lew books at home and had
right to devote their whole time to
