che alert to recognize that Mary Tudor
hal distinctly intended to administer
snub to the entire diplomatic corps by
her marked preference for Wessex's sole
company.
Chance certainly seems against your
schemes and mine, my lord cardinal, he
said. "for that butterfly is heart-free and
indolent, whilst the woman of forty Is a

"Indolent. yes" mused his eminense'

"Oh. II l judge him rightly, when he

be enchained for-shall We say?-half an

'Tdalf an houre' unused the cardinal,

"Bahw
''In half an hour a woman. even II

His keen gray eyes were seasching the

behind the dark yew hedges OF the park

He said nothing more. for at that same
moment there came to his ears. gently
echoing across the terrace. the sound Of
llalf-gay. half melancholy ditty. A pure.
girlish voice was singing somewhere with
in the palace, like young Gagged BIRD
behind the bars at sight OF the brilliant
sunshine above.
Don Miguel gave short, sarcastic
laugh.

Then he pointed to the more distant por-

Mary were once more seen, slroillnS

sudden intuition, crept into the cardinal
handsome face. The eyes lighted uo as

while the thin lips seemed to close with

He took his breviary from his pocket
and began walking along the flagstones
Of the terrace In the direction whence the
song had come. His head was bent: ap-
parently he was deeply absorbed in the
Latin text.
Don Miguel had not followed him. He
knew that his chief wished to be alone.
He watched the crimson robes sbwly fad

Roosevelt Demonstration.
The second day of the Republican
national convention brought the long
expected Roosevelt yell, whirlwind Of
enthusiasm which ragged within the
vast amphitheater of the Coliseum for
full As minutes Wednesday, and for a
time presented to the timid the spec.
ter of Roosevelt stampede.
This demonstration was decidedly
the feature of day otherwise notable
for stirring speech from the perma-
nent chairman of the convention, Sen
ator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachu-
sets, for much practical procedure
in placing the convention on smooth
running basis, and for the final defeat
of the plan to reduce the representa-
tion of southern states at future ma
tional conventions.
Mr. Lodge early in his address
launched his sentence which electri-
fed the assemblage into its first real
demonstration of wild enthusiasm.
The president" exclaimed Mr..
Lodge, "is the best abused and most
popular man in the United States to-
day"
This was the long awaited signal.
Instantly shout broke from the gal
leries and was echoed back from the
floor, at first only a tempest Of de-
tached yells, and cat-calls, and shouts
of Teddy" but gradually gathering
force and volume until it swelled to a
whirlwind of sound and motion, as
delegates and spectators rose en-
masse, mounting chairs, waving ban
ners. hats. handkerchiefs. flags, news
papers, anything which could be seized
upon to add turbulence to the scene.

REASON OF THE MAD PASTOR
RETURNS AS HE LIES DYING, DUE
TO THE BULLETS
Which ParishioneHs He Had Attacked
Fired-Last Words Of Clergyman
Those Of Forgiveness.

Hermann. Mo-, June 22,-"Father,
forgive them, for they know not what
they do"
Riddled with bullets and buckshot
from the guns of dozen members Of
his congregation, Rev. Valentine
Strauss, of the German Evangelical
church. returned to sanity. and with
his last words prayed for the kneeling
and bareheaded men who had killed
him. They have been exonerated.
Rev. Strauss became insane two
months ago, with homicidal mania. He
began roaming the country at night
with a rife swung over his shoulder.
From crags and treetops lie fired at
men, women and children.
Most of the time he missed, but on
four occasions his aim was good and
three men and a woman were hurt,
but not seriously.
His wife and five children escaped
from his mania until just before his
death, when he started from his home
at Stople, Ii miles southwest of here,
for Fredericksburg, three miles from
here. with intent to kill. His wife ran
before him, shouting a warning to
neighbors.
At the blacksmith shop Of Max
Knieche, where the tragedy took place,
she was but few hundred feet in
front of her husband. She shouted
warnings to the men in the shop Us
Strauss turned and fired at her. He
missed. Then he turned his rife on
Knieche. Again he missed.
Knieche and a dozen armed men
who were in the forge with him, ran
forward toward the minister, who was
preparing to fire again. Six double
barreled shotguns fired their contents
into his body, and an equal number
of rifles blazed out bullets into the
mad clergyman's body.
Although wounded in half a dozen
places the dying pastor staggered
across the road into a pasture and
sank under large tree, where he had
held his first religious service in Gas.
Conade county.
His slayers ran forward and sur
rounded him. Strauss head was pillow
ed on his wife's lap.
The light of reason cleaned in his
fast-glazing eyes for the first time in
two months. He said a few words to
his wife and then turned his eyes to
the bareheaded men kneeling about
him, with the still smoking guns by
their sides. He looked at the weap'
ems. then at the men, crossed his
hands over his breast and died with
