RlVESFILLE, May 4.-Raymond

The Lon Star laughs at his enemies
So PLEASE excuse n little May poetry
II It isn't SO good. Cal. Conway has
again been interviewed and he sayi
Just so We have some goods on hands
for the Fourth Of July It's all right
anyhow!
So here's where the Lone Star gets
his laugh:
There was a man, |ia, ha, ha.
And with the Lone Star found i

He much disliked mis- Jaw, Jaw, jaw,
And he called him to a halt.
There Is apother, he lives some miles
away.
He thinks he's got the stun,
So remember what say
And do not run your bluff.
Lone Star Is not millionaire,
Nor lives on chips or CHATS,
For his enemies he doesn't care,
And at them often laughs
Ha, ha, ha!
They don't Gene out in public
With what they have. to say,
But tell it TO their nelghbors
And he hears It all next day.
lla, ha, ha!
Lone Star may be always poor,
And at the wine TOO long may larry:
But there's one thing mighty sure,
He'll never boast Of the money ne
did marry.
ffa, fa, iia! .-
There's 4 lot Of truth that might be
said,
But Just now It's not the thing;
But next campaign If we're not all
dead,
We'll test in the ring.
Lone Star to the public does quite
often scribble
But for any one to offend
Or tn other peoples business nibbic
lie never did intend.
Oh. yes. III take that back;
There's one that's caused It all.
And III not leave the track
Till the Judgment days last cail.

To my enemies It may sound wrong;
So let them bite their lip
And will sound the gong.

Ha. ha, ha!
The Lone. Star for ais wrongs he Will

And on no party seeks TO leave n

But you'll find he is not alone
For there Is enough solid slgners
To make long train.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE ma
tional capital Is the Mecca Of medical
men of the whole United States this
week.
Not in years has Washington seen
such a gathering Of conventions, for at
the present time there are in session
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis, the
association of American Medical Col
leges, the American Therapeutic So
ciety, the National Association of
United States Pension Examining Sur
geons, and the Congress Of American
Physicians and Surgeons.
Several miles of learned papers have
been unfolded and reaS at the various
meetings, and If any facet Of the many
sided science of medicine has not been
touched upon it is no fault Of the dele
gates who are in attendance.
Perhaps the most Important of these
conventions, judged from the layman's
standpoint, is that of the tuberculosis
congress. Many famous specialists
from all parts of the country and from
Europe and Canada are in. attendance
and q report was made on the plans
being made for the international meet
| ing on tuberculosis to be held in this
city In September Of next year. Among
the foreign delegates in attendance is
| DIR. Gustav Killian of Freibourg, Ger

TERROR|STS' PLOT
GROUP CONSPIRACY TO KILL
FRUSTRATED
ThIrty-four of the Band Approach
Nicholas Palace, but Arouse Sus-
pic!on, and Entire Bunch
Are Apprehended

LONDON, May 1.-THE Daily Tele-
graphs ST. Petersburg correspondent
reports the accidental discovery and
foiling Of the greatest terrorist plot
since tie geat Dequensherist plot of
eighty-two years ago.
The correspondent says he has the
story from the authorities.
According to the version no fewer
than eighty conspirators resolved a
couple of months ago. to assassinate
Emperor Nicholas, and plans were
finally fixed for carrying out the deed
during Easter.
The plotters included reserve officers
and other officials and civilians whose
loyalty hitherto had been undoubted.
A large number of plotters, the cor
respondent says, was necessitated by
the elaborate precautions adopted now
adays to protect imperial personages.
The plan was, the correspondent
says, to approach Tsarskoe-Selo in dis
tinct groups, and then execute sud-
den and daring attack on the palace.
The first group, consisting of "a men,
arrived on Russian Good Friday, when
for some means unknown, suspicious
against them were aroused, the whole
"a were arrested and documents found
in their possession led to the appre-
hension of the other members of the
| band in st. Petersburg. ~,

Rv Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, o., May 12.-No politi-
cal gathering held in this state in many
months has excited so much interest as
that of the joint meeting Of the Repub-
lican state central and state executive
committees to be held at Columbus on
Wednesday Of this week for the purpose
of reconciling clashing political in
terests.
The friends Of Secretary of War Taft,
led by Arthur Vorys OF Columbus and
Congressman Burton Of Cleveland, ac-
cording to authorized statements of
those in the confidence of the Taft or
ganization, will insist on an unqualified
Endorsement by the committee Of Secre-
tary Taft as the peoples choice for
president and will stubbornly oppose the
linking Of that arrangement with the
prospective contests for either United
States senator or governor.
Congressman Burton, who left here to-
night for st. Louis, where he Is to de-
liver an address tomorrow, positively
declined to make definite statement as
to his position in connection with the
senatorship. Close political friends of
Mr.. Burton say 1t will be probably sew
eral weeks before a formal announce
ment whether he will become candi-
date against Senator Foraker will be
made.

The Boston, pitching heavily about a
mile from shore, midway between the

Anderson volunteered to swim to the

years, has just been removed by Mar

government dredge San Pedro, which is
working at the entrance to the inner
harbor, struck the remains of the
wreck and the pipes and machinery
were badly clogged by pieces Of wood
from the old vessel. Then some of the
old timers here remembered that years
ago the hulk of the bark, which had
been brought In here and stripped of
everything of value, had lain off Dead
Mans island, and one night had disap-
peared. Nobody knew whether she had
sunk. or drifted away. Now, after

JAPAN WANTS
POWERS RIGHTS
Asks Turkey to Grant Her Diplomatic
Concessions, but the Sick Man
OF Europe Is
Wary
BY Associated Press,

By Associated Press.
CONSTANTINOPLE, May 1.-THE
pour parleurs by which japan is seek
ing to establish diplomatic relations
with Turkey and the location of a jap
|anese ambassador at Constantinople
have encountered rather serious STUN
bling blocks.
Japan wishes to- be treated on the
same footing as the great powers of
Europe with respect to the "capitula-
tions," by which Turkey gives foreign
powers certain supervision over her
internal affairs, including schools, mis-
sions, consular courts, etc.
The Porte is firmly opposed to conced-
ing these privileges to Japan, as all the
efforts Of Turkey within recent years
have aimed at the restriction and ulti-
mate abolition of these privileges to
foreign powers.
