Great Mass Meeting Attended by

and the Vatican-Extraordin Po-
lice and Military Measures Taken
to Protect the Pope From Assault.

Rome, Oct. 1.-THE general strike
continues unabated by the direction
Of Ferrer sympatbizers. Even the
radical Republican and Socialist news
papers were unable to get out their
editions. Nearly 10000 workmen held
an imposing meeting, which was pre-
sided over by the Republican deputy,
Mazza. Inf1ammatory speeches de-
nouncing the execution of Ferrer were
made, the speakers including the Re-
publican deputy, Barzilai, and the So
cialist deputy, Morgari. The latter
assailed Spanish reactionism and also
attacked the Vatican, which, he said,
through its clergy throughout the
world represents anti-iberaism and
antiprogress.
Several Italians who have acted as
Spanish consuls have resigned in SYM
pathy with the Ferrer movement.
Notwithstanding the extraordinary
police and military measures to safe
guard the Vatican and save the pope
from assault Cardinal Merry del Val
personally impaired imperative in
structions to the gendarmes and the
Swiss guard to watch all entrances to
the Vatican and also the boundaries
of the Vatican gardens.

Circus Is Coming.

Exciting hippodrome contests will be
the big feature of the Norris & Rowe
Circus this season. The contests contain
an element of danger to the participants
and is just the added spice that seasons
the finish of the long and varied progrm
of the big show. In the present sea-
sons exciting hippodrome races, con-
tests involving blooded pedigreed rae
ing stock elephants, camels, drom-
edaries, shetland ponies and monkeys
will vie in interest with reproduction
of the games of ancient Rome. Men
and women drive at breakneck speed,
trios of race horses attached to chariots.
There will be Roman standing races,
fiat races, contests of endurance be-
tween man and horse. vaulting and
hurdle races over high barriers, bare
back races, jockey acts, rough riding
and many feats of expert equestrianism
will be shown. Norris & Rowe are
awarding prizes of money and medals
as an incentive to realistic efforts and
this spurs the contestants to greater
endeavor and consequent excitement
for the spectators. These spectacles
are always satisfying and Norris &
Rowe have grown so big and success
full that they will allow no other show
to exceed them in any portion of their
ideal circus program. Each season
some little show with a high sounding
title and but little else to recommend
them. threatens opposition but the pub
lie knows by experience that Norris &
Rowe have always given full value and
q bit more for the money expended.
The Norris & Rowe circus provides for
amusement, entertainment and instruc-
tion, so it is assured that the public,
whose confidence has never been be-
trayed, will continue to support the
energetic organization whose home is
in the west and whose interests are all
here. Norris & Rowe will give their
annual exhibition in Oakes on June
24th.

No End of Interesting Things

We reached Paris on the LIST of May
and our first step was to engage pas.

Adriatic, sailing from South Hampton,
England, on the 18th. We were losing
interest in the old world and our minds
turning more and more towards home.
Our time until we sailed was divided
about equally between Paris and Lon
don. Heretofore our time had been
devoted almost wholly to sight seeing,
art galleries, museums, but in Paris
and London we divided our time be-
tween these attractions and shopping.
Shopping, however, proved failure in
Paris. We found outside ofladie's hats,
gloves, handkerchiefs, silk hosiery and
a few notions. surprisingly high prices,
and confined our shopping to large
spring hat and small bottle of toilet
water.
We either reached Paris at the wrong
time Of the moon, or got out of bed the
first morning on the wrong foot, for we
did not like it. Our impressions were
bad to start with and did not get bet

things in art, and places Of historical
interest, to say nothing Of the parks,
gardens and boulevards, which are the
finest in the world, but with all these
there is something about the city that
is not pleasing. The people seem cold,
selfish and uneracious. Many Of the

Paris is not France, any more than
New York is the United States.
The French are great people, more
than. seventy per cent of them own
their own homes, generally with a
small plat of ground. They are thrifty
and prosperous beyond all others, and
best of all they know how to enjoy
themselves and make the best of their
prosperity. They enjoy life as they
go along, and know when they have
enough of fortune and quit work.
They are badly governed. In politics
they are failure. but as homebuilders
they are great, and much is due to the
industry, wisdom, love, loyalty and
devotion of the mothers, wives and
daughters. When France had to raise
the enormous war indemnity to Ger

own pockets and were soon lending
money to every other country.
We thought we had had our fill of
paintings and sculpture but our visit to
the vast galleries in the Louvre proved
interesting beyond anything we had

do them and the numerous other CALLER

Napoleon's Tomb are masterpieces of
