gists on Trial.

London, July 2.-Twenty-seven out
of the twenty-nine women suffragists
who were arrested during the suffra-
gist demonstrations before the houses
of parliament were charged in the po
lice court with obstructing the police.
Those against whom previous convic-
tions had been entered were ordere'
to pay fine and give security fol
their good behavior for one year or to
spend three months in prison. First
offenders were required to give secur-
ity not to repeat the offense, in de-
fault of which they were sentenced to
one months Imprisonment. A major
ity of the women elected to go to jail

TAFT A PRIVATE CITIZEN.
Formally Turns Over War Portfolio to
Successor.

Washington, July 2.-Secretary of
War William III. Taft has relinquished
to other hands the reins of Off ficial
position and once more became a pri-
vate citizen. After having been the
executive head of the war department
for four years and five months he re-
tires now to undertake the duties and
responsibilities of a candidate of a
great political party for the presi-
dency.
Mr. Taft's final duty at the war de-
partment was the presentation to the
officials of the department of his sue
cessor, General Luke e. Wright. He
said he regarded 1t as not merely a
duty but a pleasure to induct General
Wright into his new Office and to
"start him on the way he should co."

Torreon, Mex, July 2.-Reports of
depredations in this neighborhood

city is quiet and life and property are
perfectly safe. No foreign interests

Storm Causes Much Damage.

GAINESVILLE, Wis, July "A severe
storm which swept over this city and
vicinity did about $4,000 worth of
damage. 1t swept to the west of
Janesville and struck Utterbien Cor
ners, where 1t struck funeral cortege
which was just leaving the church.
Carriages were overturned and three
persons were injured. At Evansville
considerable damage was done. Barns,
tobacco sheds and large silos were
blown dowi and trees eighteen inches
In diameter were broken off.

USE BOMBS NEXT TIME
British Woman Suffragist Makes
Threat in Court
GIVEN SEVERE SENTENCES
Fine and Score of Others Go
Behind the Bars Rather Than Give
Peace Bonds.

London, July 2.-The extraordinary
demonstration before the houses of
parliament made by the women suf-
fragists In their effort to secure votes
for themselves had rather startling
sequel when one of the women, Mary
Leigh, arrested for breaking windows
In the house of Premier Asquith, de-
clared in the Bow street police station
court that "the next time we come
out you can expect bombs"
This radical statement has had the
effect of drawing a greater degree of
attention to the entire suffragist move
ment In England and as a result the
police will hereafter have to handle
the women demonstrators with less
of good humored tolerance and more
severity.
This threat by Mary Leigh is really
the sensation of the last demonst ira
tion, for the much heralded attack on
the house of commons was compare
lively failure. Nothing like the ex-
pected number of suffragists appeared
and the movement was lacking in def
mite organization. The two women
who broke windows in the house of
the premier were sentenced to two
months at hard labor without the op-
tion of paying a fine. Compared to
previous punishments meted out to
the suffragists here these sentences
are particularly severe.

London, July 2.-The situation al
Tabriz, Persia, continues to be very
serious. Private dispatches received
here say that the people have erected
barricades in the streets and the fight
ing is going on night and day. Tabriz
and the entire province of Azerbaiian
are strongholds of the revolutionists
and the arrival there of troops to
strengthen the forces of the shah has
increased the danger of the situation.
The entry of the troops to the city is
opposed by the revolutionary forces.
All the bazaars have been closed and
there has been some looting of the
residences of delegates to the assem-
bly, and business houses.
Increasing cause for alarm is found
in the fact that Tabriz is surrounded
by Rachin Khan and his horsemen.
They are supporters of the shah and
utterly without discipline Should
these riders be turned loose on the
city the lives of even the foreigners
there would be in danger
No details are given OF the recent
street fighting, but one of the dis
patches concludes with these words:
"A good deal more bloodshed is ex.
peoted before the trouble is settled"

 As it's title would Indicate, the play is one on spiritualisrn, a subject that has come in for so much discussion of late, that 1t has created universal in terest Beginning with Sir William Crookes and Sir Oliver Lodge, two not ed English men of science, the world has been startled by a succession of Investigations carried out by men d. ready famous in other branches of scientific research, and consequently Sell rs& nla tans and fakIrs.

 In becoming converted to the theory that there is something more than trickery in what they have seen, test ed. and recorded, they do, by no means, all concede that there is lie in the spirit world after death. Tn fact, the large majority of these noted men are of the belief that great prat of what the so-called "SpiritistE' hold as con-. elusive of such a state is due primari- Iy, if not solely, to natural biological conditions Yet this if proven to be so, will necessarily reyolutionize all existing theory of human life as wc now conceive it.
 What Mir Davis has to say on the subject must await the production of his new play. There are lines in the piece that seem to indicate that he thinks things that he dare not openly avow, yet his general position Is kept in darkness, the management desiring to "spIlng' it upon their first night audience.
