ROW ABOUT RECRUITS
RUSSIA NOW HAS A NEW CAUSE
FOR CONTENTION.

ST PETERSBURG, April 29.-The first
executive session of the lower house OF
parliament took place today and was de-
voted to discussing the bill fixing the num-
Der of recruits to be called to the colors.
The debate which lasted the entire after
noon was in secret session. and as fifty
six deputies have announced their intention
of addressing the house the arguments
may be continued tomorrow. 1t is reported
that the chances are in favor of the
adoption of the measure, perhaps with
a slight reduction of the number OF troops
asked for, which is 5000 less than de-
manded In 1906.
In a State Of Panic.
The constitutional democrats are said to
have been in a pancky frame of mind at
the opening of the session owing to the at
ttude of the Poles, who, in order to punish
the constitutional democrats for backslid-
ing on the question of autonomy for Poland.
steadfastly refused to say whether they
would vote for the army bill. AS number
of constitutional democrats had left town
for the Easter vacation, several of the
members of the right had announced that
they would refrain from voting and as part
of the group of toll had resolved to support
the socialist motion to reject the BILL the
constitutional democrats saw themselves
termned to bring all their orators into ac-
ton and protract the debate until the
absentees. hurredly summoned by tele-
graph, could return to St Petersburg. The
Poles, however are not inclined to persist
in an attitude which would entail the dis
solution of parliament, and IT is understood
that they ultimately will vote for the bill
Not Barracks.
Prof. Kuznin- Karavaief. democratic re
former reported the bill in behalf Of the
committee and then Minister of War Rudi
ger in an explanatory speech, declared that
the houses must adopt the measure, which
provoked retOrt from the left to the
effect that this is not a barracks"
NJ. Hessen, the constitutional democratic
leader of ST. Petersburg. in a pacific ad
dress explained the attitude of the con-
stitutioral democrats toward the BILL
whereupon the radicals took TIE floor and
violently attacked the measure.

Star Notice
From Sundays Edition.

THE PALAIS ROYAL announces
a sale for housekeepers, and presents
a page filled with a list of the sea-
sons needs. This page combines a
very complete catalogue and price
list. and should prove an instructive
guide. 1t answers the questions Of
how best to subdue moths, prevent
the appearance of worse insects. how
to clean house most effectively and
economically. The problem of the
refrigerator or ice chest, the water
cooler and Ice cream freezer is made
easy to solve. The subject of the gas
range Is grappled intelligently, an
important subject now that fires are
to prove a discomfort and expense.
The question Of summer furniture
takes one to the fourth floor. Bam-
boo and mission pieces are the fea-
lures for indoors, and willow for the
porch and garden. Here, too, are
screens for windows and doors, cam
opies for the bed, summer draperies
for the windows and covers for the
furniture
Linen sheets and pillow cases are
deliciously cool for summer use and
VIII not be so expensive if the sec
ond-foor list is consulted. The light
weight bedspread. the heavy bath
towels, the table iinen-everything
known as housekeeping goods are
mentioned and rot a few extra good
values pointed to.
Art needlework enters into the
making of many beautiful cushion
covers and other attractive pieces
for the home, and this subject is an
important feature of todays Palas
Royal page. 1t will he noticed that
the materials for summer hats,
parasols. waists and undergarments
are furnished here, with the neces-
sary floss for the embroidery work.
Each article is neatly inclosed in an
envelope, with instructions.

London, March 12.-Acccrding
to the Chronicle today, the official
accounts of the Dreadpaught's be-
havior on her trip to Trinidad are
not altogether supported by private
letters.
: The engines worked well, but the
heat in the engine room, exceeded
everything ever experienced by
those on board. Owing to the great
size of the ship, her maneuve1ing
qualities at slow speed were not
equal to those of small ships.
It is stated that the hig battle
ship cannot keep her station with
reciprocating ships at 20 knots, and
that for night maneuvering without
lights, in close formation, the ship
is out of the running.

Chicago, March 12.-Funeral
services were held last night for
John Alexander Dowie by the little
baud of the faithful who have stood
by him while thousands of the once
restoration host ridiculed and scorn-
ed the former ruler. In spite of
drizzling night, his residence was
crowded. mourners finding places
on stairs and window stills.
Under these conditions, with ev.
cry person present an ardent fol-
lower of the ''First APOSTLE" in life
and death, many of whom had
been with him from the founding Of
the church, the service had deep
religious tone that made it unusu-
ally impressive.
The services were modelled upon
those conducted by Dowie at the
grave of his daughter, Esther, in
cluding the same, scriptural read
ings and prayers. Coupled with
these was the singing of the songs
Dowie sang upon the. death bed,
Joy Cometh in the Morning." "
"Joy to the World" and Lead,
Kindly Light"
Dracons Samuel, Chad and Nor
ris, who were with Dowie in his
last night on earth, were called up
on to relate il cidents of those hours.
Deacon Morris denied that the
"Firzt Apostle was delirious at
any tims. Hs said he was merely
'talkirg in his sleep as he had done
every night for weeks" and that
fever or any of the symptoms of de-
lirium failed to appear. The meet
ing closed with declarations from
almost every one present that they
would remain in the present body
until Dowie's will reveals whom he
chose as his successor. Then they
will flock to his successor. Many
expressed the belief that this will
be Overseer Bryant, now in South
Africa.
A large white hearse will be
brought from Kenoaha, the coffin
will be white, and the hearse will
be drawn by four white horses. The
coffin will be sealed hermetically
and buried in stone vault.

Toulon, France, March IA
powder magazine on board the
French battleship lena blew up to
day, while the vessel was In the
Mesiessy dock, owing to the explo-
sion Of a compressed air torpedo.
There were about $50 officers and
men on board at the time Of the
disaster, but most of them jumped
into the water. The authorities
here believe that the victims num-
Der over 400.
Further explosions occurred upon
the lena every moment,
and debris flew over the dockyard
for distance of 500 yards. All
the windows of the workshops
around the scene were broken.
The electric wires flashed in the
fuses, and then broke down all
about the dock.
A shell weighing 20 pounds was
hurled quarter of mile before
striking and sinking into the
ground.
A complete panic prevailed a.
mong the employees of the arsenal,
who were returning to work from
luncheon when the powder maga-
zine blew up, and many of them
made rush toward the dock whence
clouds of thick smoke were arising.
No one seemed to know what had
happened until some one shouted,
"The lena has blown up"
An officer then called out, "Save
yourselves" and all the 'workmen
and others made rush for the
nearest exit from the arsenal.
