SPANISH ASTRONOMER HERE
Rev. Fr, Rivardo Ciera Tells About
Spain's Troubles,
SAYS DON JAIME CAN'T REBEL
observatory over Which Father Ciern
Presides Discovered the Suns In
fIuence over Electric and
Magnetic Phenomena.

Spain Is troubled by a political party
which seeks to establish a republican form
of government and not by strife with the
Roman Catholic church, according TO the
Rev. Father Ricardo Cirera, a Spanish
astronomer who is visiting with the
Rev Father Rigge of Creighton uni
versIty Father Cirera declared that all
talk of Don jaime the Spanish pretender
undertaking a revolution against King
Alfonso is baseless, but that such move
by the republicans is not so improbable.
The visiting astronomer is director of
the Jesuit observatory Of Ebro, located
near Cortosa, Spain. lie Is on his way to
the meeting of the International union at
Mount Wilson, near Pasadena, Cal, which
is called for next week as a session in
solar research.
In quaint English which he gained during
a ten months residence at London ten
years ago. the astronomer talked entertain
ingly of his work and of Spain.
There is really no rupture between Spain
and the church at Rome" said Father
Cirera. The church does not uphold Don
Jaime as its champion and is not saction-
ing move to overthrow the king. i don't
think Don Jaime has any real political
strength, such would be needed for
rebellion under his leadership
THE only trouble that exists in Spain
now is the activity of the republican party.
which has been growing for some time and
which would welcome a chance to attack
and sweep aside the present government"
Not as BAD as Painted.
Father clrera from that point proceeded
to explain how the news telegraphed from
his country has been exaggerated so as to
exploit all the bad conditions, never men
tioning the good things of the nation.
In the course OF his talk on astronomical
subjects. Father Cirera remarked that his
cent discovery that the sun is solely re-
sponsible for all the electrical and mag
netic phenomena of the earth was made.
He explained that he and his colleagues
are concentrating their research on the
problem Of climatic conditions in the hope
Of some day having a formula for learning
future climatic conditions. He declared it
may become possible some day to phophesy
weather conditions for years ahead.
1t is expected several hundred world
famous astronomers will be in attendance
at the Mount Wilson meeting. Father Cirera
represents two astronomical societies at
the big gathering.
| The Mount Wilson observatory is the
largest solar observatory in the world; the
Mount Ebro institution from which Father
Cirera comes is the largest Jesuit obser-
vatory in the world.
Father Rigge announced that the Rev.
Father Aloysius Cortie. who Is director of
the observatory at Stonyhurst and who al
ready has gone to Mount Wilson, will stop
In Omaha for a visit on his way home.

Moissant'S Car
is Again Badly
Damaged by Fall
Aviator Makes Two More Unsuccess-
full Attempts to Resume Flight to
London-Wind is Too High.

LONDON, Aug 22,--John 3. Moissant,
tho American aviator. was again baffled
this morning in his attempt to complete
the Paris-London flight with a passenger,
which started so auspiciously last Tuesday
evening. He ascended twice this morning
in his endeavor to cover the comparatively
short distance separating him from Lon
don, but he could make no headway, and
in the second forced descent damaged his
machine SO seriously that he will be unable
to resume the flight for twenty-four hours
The first ascent was made at 4:3O a. m
from Upchurch, near Rainham, where he
landed after battle with the strong wind
Saturday. On the ground dead calm
prevailed and all conditions seemed favor
able for the flight, but the machine. after
ascending above the trees, was caught I'm
a tricky wind, ard although Moissant re-
mained in the air fifty-six minutes, he
could cover only short distance His
supply of petrol also gave out and he de-
scended TO replenish it. After delay of
half an hour he again ascended against a
thirty mile breeze, which he fought for the
succeeding half hour, covering only four
miles in the last twenty-seven minutes.
Finally heavy gust of wind caught the
monoplane and flung it down bodily 1OO
feet, just missing one of the high hedges
bordering the English roadways Moissant
avoided it by an abrupt swerve and the
machine landed in a field, striking 30
heavily that it was badly damaged. The
wheels used in starting were buckled. the
rudder and propeller broken and parts
of the framework were smashed. Moissant
and his mechanician, Fileux, narrowly
escaped injury.
Moissant and his machine are now at
Seven oaks, about twenty miles from
Upchurch and an equal distance from Lon.

Samson Rules
Again Tonight
Wants to See How Many He Can
Have on Hand on an Off
Night

Samson is expecting a large delegation
of novices from out of town, just a sort Of
genial gathering, TO mix with the comet
out at the den tonight. The only particu-
lar feature scheduled for the evening is an
improvement on the show.
Every member of Ak-Sar- Ben is ordered
by the king to bring out guest, provided
the guest is not a resident of Omaha and
show him the pug-nosed comet Ak-Sar-B Ben
wants to see how much of a gang he can
get together on an off night. "'Tis a true
test OF loyalty" he says.
Considering the amount OF work yet to
be done there is very little time between
now and the opening date of the fall
festival. For this reason His August Nobs,
King Ak-Sar-Ben XVI, is roaring at his
subjects that they step forward, as many
as are able. and say what they can do for
the electrical parade. He is particularly de-
sirous of horsemen.

her way into the pantry to find her
daughter dead on the floor. Mrs Andreen
became unconscious also from the fumes
and nearly died before police surgeons
arrived on the scene.
For several weeks past Miss Andreen had
made frequent efforts to kill herself 1t
is said, and to guard against the despond-
ent womans mania, all the gas jets were
stuffed so their force would be weak, and
the kitchen gas range was removed from
that room into the pantry. The pantry
door was then kept securely locked by
other members of the family against the
intrusion of the suicidaly cared woman.
In finally accomplishing her purpose,
Miss Andreen crawled through the window
into the pantry some time Sunday night.

Johnson and Harris succeeded. in reviving
Mrs Andreen, but their brief efforts upon
the younger woman showed them she had
been dead for some time.
Coroner Crosby has been notified of the
affair.
So far as it known Miss Andreen had no
serious sorrow other than the memory of
her younger sister who took her life two
years ago. 1t seemed she could not thrust
the thought of the dead girl from her
mind. and in the mental strain gradually
fell into the desperate desire to end her
life as the other girl had done.
