INTO THE SEA.
Col. Roosevelt Was Swept From
Boat by Wave
While Returning From Visit to
POnta del Gada.
SAVED BY SAILORS
Caught as a Wave Tossed Him
in Their direction.
Cheered by Fellow Passengers
After His Escape.

New York, April "a special dis
patch from Gibraltar is responsible for
this story printed here: A wave swept
Theodore Roosevelt into the sea from
a small boat in which he was return
ing from a visit to Ponta del Gada, off
the Azores. last Tuesday. Two sailors
caught him just as another wave
pitched him toward the side of the
steamer Hamburg. Passengers on the
boat told of the accident here.
Mr. Roosevelt's patriotism put him
in danger. He had been visiting the
American consul and as the small boat
neared the side of the liner on the
return trip the band struck up 'The
Star Spangled Banner" The ex-presi-
dent rose and barred his head. When
the national hymn ended the boat was
pitching beside the Hamburg and Mr..
Roosevelt made flying leap for the
rope ladder that dangled from the
side of the vessel Just then the big
wave tossed the boat, threw him from
his balance and he went into the sea.
Seamen Rescued Him.
He is good swimmer but might
have had a hard time of it in the
rough water if the succeeding wave
had not tossed him up almost to the
who were hanging to the ladder,
caught hold of his arms and held him
until he got a grip on the lowest rung
and clambered up. He went at once
to his cabin and took off his wet
clothing. His fellow passengers gave
him rousing cheer when he appear
ed again at dinner.

IN A CHURCH WAR
A Archbishop and Priests of Cath
Olic Church in Mexico
Are Up in Arms Against Anti
Clerical Newspapers.
START A BOYCOTT,
START A BOYCOTT.
Post I'VE Don't Patronage
Placards About the City.
Papers Retaliate With a CRU
sade Against Holidays.

Guadalajara, Mex, April 3-Arch-
p1shop Ortiz and the priests of the
Catholic church here have declared
open war against the anti-clericals,
the latter of whom are seeking to be-
little the miraculous power of the
Virgin Mary. An anti-clerical news
paper charged the priests with
manufacturing apparitions'' in order
to frighten the people into believing
that the Virgin Mary was appearing
at various places. The archbishop, in
sermon defended the doctrine of
miracles and .adjured all members
of the church to remain firm in their
faith.
The paper was reinforced by two
other newspapers which rallied to
their support and in retaliation the
clericals started a boycott against all
three publications and in addition
posted placards on houses throughout
the town bearing the following in
scription:
Honor glory to Virgin Mary; no
impious paper received in this house.
further to confuse the churchmen, the
newspapers mentioned have now be-
gun a crusade against what they term
the excessive number of church holi-
days observed in the republic. They
assert that of the 365 days in the year,
16S are observed as church holidays.

TELEPHONE WIRE KILLS.
Tried to Stop the Bell From Ringing
and Is Eectrocuted.

Chicago, April 3.-While attempting
to end some trouble with telephone.
John Shedden was electrocuted in his
residence at EIgin.
Shortly after dinner the telephone be-
gan ringing. Mr.. Shedden went re-
peatedly to the phone. but could hear
nothing but a buzzing noise.
Unable to communicate with central
he secured pair of shears to cut the
wire.
Are you sure that will stop it. John?"
asked Mrs. Shedden.
TT certainly -" repliced Shedden as
he put the shears to the wire, only to
fall back dead without cry.
Investigation by the telephone COM
pany revealed that the wire had be-
come crossed with large electric feed
wire from a trolley road and the full
current was carried into the house.

POLITICAL LINES DOWN
.sWet" or Dry Not the Issue in
Illinois Elections.

Chicago, April 3-Municipal campaigns
are closing in many cities of Illinois,
and the election Tuesday will be the
elimination of many hot contests. Few
er places than usual have the liquor
problem as an issue, the ballots of a
year ago having decided the policy in
a majority of cases for another year at
least In some cities, however, the old
fight of dry and "wet'' is on in the
selection of officials pledged to strict
enforcement of the prohibitory law.
Political lines are closely drawn in
most contests, although in some indie
pendent candidates are in the field and
are causing confusion.
Women are showing unusual interest
in the local fights, in which they sell
dom have interfered heretofore except
when license was the issue.

CALL IN THE MONEY.
Congressman MlIrdock Wants Money
Loaned to States Returned.

Washington, April Representative
Murdoch, of Kansas, has introduced a
bill calling upon the states to refund the

among them in 1885, when the surplus
from the sale of public lands reached
$38, ,000, 900.

MADE A SPECIAL ORDER.
Missouri Legislature Will Vote on Pro-
hibition April 8.

jefferson City, Mo-, April 3.-The
proposed constitutional amendment
establishing statewide prohibition was
today made a special order for April
Is, by the house of representatives of
the Missouri legislature.
The committee on constitutional
amendments reported the measure to-
day without recommendation. The
Democrats tried to force its immediate
consideration but by a strict party
vote the Republicans defeated this ef-
fort-57 to so.
1t is claimed that the measure will
receive II votes in the house and %
in the senate and thus pass both
branches of the general assembly.
There was a small sized riot in the
house before the final vote was taken;
the Democrats complained that no
opportunity had been given to present
minority report on the proposed
amendment and left their seats I'M
mediately there was a rush for the
door, the Republicans seeking to
block the exits. u. G. Crandell, Re-
publican and H. L. Johnson, Demo-
crat, came to blows but were quickly
stopped. Most of the Democrats left
the hall but later returned.

UP TO GATES MARK.
May Wheat Touches $1.22H on the
Chicago Board.

Chicago. April 3.-Wheat for May
delivery overtopped the high point of
$1.21k reached during the celebrate d
Gates deal in 1905 when it sold on
the board of trade here today at
$1.22H per bushel. Only twice
during the last 20 years has wheat sold
at a higher figure on the local exchange
In October, 1885, the price reached
81 .231s and again in May. 1898, during
the Letter campaign mark of $1.S5 was
established. The present high level is
due largely to an exceedingly urgent de-
mand for the cash grain.
New High Records.
New York, April S.-Wheat for May
delivery in New York touched $1.24 Is
today and July $1.15N, both new
high records There was heavy COW

situation, higher cables, and the sus-

ROOSEvELTS COMING.
Is Looked Forward to With Great
Eagerness by NeapOIitans.

Naples, April 3.-As the time of the
arrival here of Theodore Roosevelt ap-
pected Monday morning-the interest
and the excitement of the people of
Naples increases. In the belief that
Mr.. Roosevelt would be here for nearly
two days all kinds of ARRANGEMENTS
were made for his entertainment. and
the disappointment is correspondfngly
great as it is realized that through de-
lay to the Hamburg he will have only
a few hours here.
A magnificent apartment in one Of
the best hotels has been prepared for
Mr.. Roosevelt's use. The rooms afford
a beautiful view of the bay of Naples
Mount Vesuvius and Capri, and it is
hoped the distinguished traveller will be
able to make use of this apartment for
at least few hours.
| 1t is now said the Hamburg will not
arrive here until late Monday after
noon. It is doubtful if Mr. Roose-
| welt meets the Duchess of Aosta; his
stay will be too short.
The prefect of Naples has given or
| ders that a special detachment of
! picked carabineers be on duty at the
dock to protect Mr. Roosevelt not
only from any possible assault, but
also from the opportunities of the
| populace.
| Both the Hamburg and the steamer
Admiral will be surrounded by police
boats, and it is deemed that these pre-
cautions preclude any untoward oc-
