las GALES de Venecia, alumbrada por
la luz de la luna. Los colores verde
claro y plateado de las decoraciones
en- combination de luces de varios
matices, producian un efecto admi-
rable imitando el aspecto de una no
che en- la poetica y genital ciudad d
flotante. Hacia ell fondo reclinadas
en- el interior de una gondola que
parecia mecerse sobre la superficie
del aqua y mientras hacian sonar las
dulces melodfas de sus bandolinas,
dos damas cantaban con voces de
tiple y contralto, respectivamente,
J ell inspirado duetino de G. Lucanto-
nj "Una Noche en- Venecia" y ALA
interiormente dejaba Or sus sono-
ros acordes la "Lira de oro" acom-

Despues, en- la segunda parte, eje-
cut6 sobre el proscenio una brillante
selection de la opera "Caballefa
Rusticana";; y para repetir, q peti-
ci6n del p1blico, extren6 un inter
mezzo morisco titulado 'Moralba"
que gust6 mucho y fue enthusiastic
mente aplaudido.

Even the Far North Has Arisen in
Rebellion Against Standpatism
Says Spokane Candidate.

This last gratifying victory again
demonstrates, if demonstration
were necessary, that the people of
Alaska are amply capable of self
government and are sick and tired
of the resource grabbing tactics of
the Guggenheims, carried on in
such a high handed manner, with
the aid of fraud, force, perjury
bribery and even murder. In re-
cent instance, after the agents of
the government had spent $4,000
in an effort to convict the agents of
the Guggenheims responsible for
shooting down men who resisted
their arrogant encroachments, the
prosecutions were suddenly SuS'
pended by an order from Washing
ton removing from office the dis
trict attorney in charge of the pros

GLOOM IN CHILE.

SAN DIEGO DE CHILE, Aug. II.
News of the death of President
Mont. at Bremen. has cast a gloom
over the Chilean capital. where the
executive was without an enemy.
Elias Hernandez, vice president of
the republic, has temporarily taken
Months seat and probably will be
elected to succeed him.
Months death will not result in
financial or other depression, &C
cording to Henry Fletcher, Ameri-
can minister to Chile.
Senior Montt was member of one
of the best known families in Chile.
His father, Manuel Montt, was pres
ident of the Chilean republic from
1851 to 1861. At various times Pedro
Mont was speaker of the chamber
of deputies. senator, consular of
state and during a brief period was
minister plenipotentiary at Wash
ington.
In the years between 1899 and
1892, when the frontier disputes
with the Argentine republic brought
Chile near war, Senior Montt poured
oil on the troubled waters.
SANTIAGO DE CHILE, Aug. II.
The centennial celebration has
been suspended and the grief of
the people over the death of Presi-
dent Montt is genuine.
A cruiser will go to New York to
receive the body of the executive
after its arrival there from Bre-
men.
The upblic and press express no
surprise over President Months
sudden death as it was known that
he had not been well for many
months.

Surrounded by brilliantly uni

and General Dalstein, military gov

Enthusiastically. The formal welcome
was hardly over before the cheer
ing throng pushed aside the soldiers
and lifted the victorious aviator
upon their shoulders.
When Auburn alighted he, too,
was captured by the spectators and
the two air navigators were paraded
around the mammoth aerOdome and
into the crowded streets.

SAY TEDDY IS
LOOKING TO 1912

Rumors current here are that
Roosevelt will plan his speaking
tour in all the southern states on
his way to the Pacific coast as pre-.
liminary to the opening Of cam
paign. In the west and northwest
he will deliver several addresses,
most of which will be in support Of
the insurgent spirit instead Of at
tempting to mould public sentiment
in favor of Taft. This attempt, it Is
believed, would be the only manner
in which Roosevelt could defeat
himself.
