please. Forming in three huge circles
they played the games which they have
learned in their playground work. The
marching and singing were both in
fine time and were heartily applauded
by the elders in the grand stand. Then
came the dumbbell and flag drills.
Great Rivalry Exhibited.
The track and field games which fol-
lowed consisted of fourteen events.
There was great rivalry between the
Prince street and South Canal play
grounds, with the athletes of the
former excelling on field and track,
while the South Canal boys had every
thing their own way in the special
fencing matches. Minnie Balmuth, Of
the Prince street grounds, proved her

happiness of the young citizens who

Association, were attended by between

 remarkable story which comes from Madrid is told by the Journal today The story concerns a young Spaniard named Emile San Pedro, who will shortly appear before the Madrid courts to answer extra ordinary charges of swlndling The young mans life-story reads like a romance. He is represented as having called himself Villaaime and to have posed as the son of the hero of Santiago de Cuba. In this capacity he captured the heart of the daughter of an English officer at Gibral- tar, but when it came to San Pedro's com- manding the young girls hand in mar riage his real identity was discovered and he was put in prison at Cadiz. A re- sourceful young gentleman, San Pedro, on being transferred to Barcelona, is report ed to have written to his English sweet heart begging her to forgive him as he had deceived her through love and to have requested her to implore her brother, who was in Barcelona, to plead in his favor. The brother eventually went on his bail and San Pedro was released But now comes the most exciting and most incredible part of the story.
 San Pedro launched out in adventures in which he is alleged to have induced his liberator to join It is solemnly declared that he posed as the brother of the Queen of Spain and that his companion styled himself a marquis. Together they went to London and from there to Paris, where they were received and dined by the Spanish ambassador, and at Toledo Car dinal Sancha, the primate of Spain, gave the pseudo prince 5000 pesetas to have him the trouble of writing for money.
 At Valencia the swindle was discovered and the adventurers put in prison, but shortly afterwards they were released and went to Gibraltar in a merchant ves-
 f1 1,1 where the prince posed as a captain of infantry, but his breast covered with sev- eral rows of bogus medals gave him away and he was arrested. The case against him has just come up and the public pros ecutor demands a sentence of four years Imprisonment.
 A little comedy that Paul de Rock might have turned to excellent account was en- acted in the Rue de Chabrol yesterday morning Two bread carriers, Lucie and Annette, put on their best clothes; it was their weekly holiday-and turned up at the lodgings of Anatole, a bakers man.
 They were astonished to see each other each under the impression that she was the sweetheart of the bakers man. There was q moments stupefaction, and then trouble. The young women got into grips, and soon their black hair was undone, and their faces scratched. Lucia got the worst of the encounter She received a blow in the face which caused a lump.
 The bakers man, placed in a delicate situation, endeavored to appease the an- ger of the rivals. But he would have done better to have have allowed them to fight 1t out. Realiing to the full his baseness and double dealing, the women directed their fury against him. Anatole experienced bad quarter of an hour. His faca Uac scratched beVoo1 recnyuffion ana he cut sorry figure before the police commissary of the Saint Vincent de Paul quarter to whom he related his msad- venture.

BREAKFAST DIDN'T
 SUIT PEASANT LAD

Rome, October 24.-King Victor Emman- uel tells this story on himself:
 He went out hunting alone the other day early at Monza,. and was lucky enough to shoot a fine mountain sheep The animal fell into a deep abyss and the King was just contemplating climbing down and rescuing his trophy when a peasant boy came up, offering to do 1t for him.
 How much?" queried his majesty, who suspected that be might have been rec ognized and would be held up for large ransom.
 "One lire (2oc) and half of your break fast"
 he King assented, and after laborl- ous three-quarters of an hour the lad re- turned with his load. but before putting 1t down held out his hand for the coin.
 Now, breakfast" he said.
 The King opened fancy hunting bag, which he carried on a strap hanging from his shoulder, and took out Q loaf of black bread, a big onion, few chunclxs of gar lie and half bottle of red wine.
 As the nature of the breakfast disclosed itself the boy eyed the King suspiciously, making no attempt to sit alongside his majesty.
 ''You shall divide. to make sure I don't cheat you said Victor Emmanuel, hand Ing the lad his knife.
 No. thank you, said the boy. 1T thought you were a gentleman, carrying something decent to eat. Such stuff as you have we get at our cabin any day"

CONFERENCE TO
 PATCH UP PEACE

St. Petersburg. October 24.-The fate C the Russian proposal to re-knit tn broken strands of the Balkan agree ments by means of a conference of tn powers, rests, it is reported, on the out come of the negotiations which M. Is wolksy, the Russian foreign minister. wi open tomorrow in Berlin.
 According to press dispatches receivl here the impression Is gaining ground h several of the European capitals that ie proposed conference will be abandonedln account of the difficulties in the wayof formulating programme, but the hh- est authorities of the foreign office tre do not share this view and point tolhe obvious impossibilitity of setting breaches of international compact by any other method than an internapnal conference.
 The reports of the impending retirnent of M Iswolsky, on account Of tf al- legged failure of his policy, have laken a definite form in diplomatic circl9 here and the pan-Slavist newspapers lpenly refer to him as politically defuft A high official who is closely in touh with Emperor Nicholas and the fordsn of flee, however, has authorized a dnial Of the reports and also of a rumoI to the effect that there Is friction beteen M. Teharykoff, acting foreign miniler, and lswolsky.
 Prince Ouroussoff, the aged arpassador at Vienna, who is widely bland for his failure to inform the government here promptly of Austria's intention with re- gard to the Sandjak of Noviazar and the provinces of Bosnia and Hfzegovina, will. however, be sacrificed.

.LABOF FEDERATION WARNING FRANCE 0rga zatiOn Is Getting To Be
 Formidable MAI PREVENT MEETINGS It Iclaimed By Some That the Re- lbIic Is on Verge of Another Revolution Owing to Work
 of Agtators.
BY PAUL VILLIERs.

Paris. October 24.-The French govern
 lent has at last seen the necessity of Ioing something to check the leaders of
 hat vast revolutionary movement which
 IS being promoted under the guise of la Dor organization.
 ] The real enemies of the republic today 'are not so much the royalists and nation- alists. The government has to take count of them, but the enemy that causes most anxiety is the General Federation of La- Dor. There is no doubt about the aims of this revolutionary association It's leaders aim at the general appropriation of the bourgeoisie and the disappearance of the employer. Formerly responsible statesmen did not take the utterances of these so-called labor leaders seriously. Somehow they seemed to think they would never collect a following that would com mand attention, but the report recently issued by the General Federation of La bor has opened their eyes. The organi- zation is fast gobbling all the trade un- ions in France and also many of the pro- fessions. It professes to discuss labor questions first, but all the time it's lead CTS are seeking to instill into the minds of workmen the mischievous gospel of Gustaye Nerve, who is much more to be feared than the loquacious Jaures. The General Federation of Labor is busy or ganizing an immense gathering In order to show the government that the great power the workers, or rather the agita- tors who lead them, wleld in France. But there is news today that M. Clemenceau has decided to forbid the meeting on the ground that the law does not allow labor agtators to organize for a general strike, or to prepare a rebellion.
 The premier's decision will be applauded by every Frenchman anxious to maintain internal peace. That this peace is peril ously imperiled is made clear by warn ous imperriled is made clear by the warn ing notes struck by responsible newspa- pers In the Gaulois, Senator Jenouvrier even goes so far as to state that the country is about to see another revolu- 'tion.
