John o. Schenck, who was charged

leased on her own recognizanee by
Judge Jordan in the criminal court,

her from communicating with or
harassing her husband or from interior
ing in any way with her children,
Virginia and Robert Schenck, or from
entering their house on the island.
The amount of alimony will also be
argued at that time.
A counter suit for divorce is being
prepared by Mrs. Schenck Is counsel.

wife, it is said that he will be called
on to pay the costs of the late trial,

PARISPAPERISSUED GOVERNOR GENERAL
OF ALL CANADA WILL BE The
DUKE OF C0NNAUGHT
IT'S REPORTED.
Official Announcement Was Made at
Ottawa Sunday Afternoons Was
the Late King Edwards Wish That
His Brother Should Be Appointed to
Canadian Post.

LONDON, Jan. 31.-It is officially
announced that the duke of Connaught
will succeed Earl Grey in September
as governor general of Canada. The
appointment, which is for two years,
may be extended to cover a longer
period.
Various reports have been current
from time to time that the duke of
Connaught would not be the next gov
ernor general of Canada, although, on
the original announcement of his ap-
pointment, shortly after the death of
King Edward, it was said officially it
had been the wish of the king that the
duke of Connaught, his brother, should
go to Canada as governor general.
A late dispatch from London reported
that the duke would be appointed
regent during the absence of King
George in India for the coronation dur
bar. Such an appointment, it was said,
would serve to delay the dukes replac-
ing Earl Grey.
The announcement that the duke of
Connaught will be the next governor
general of the dominion was receiyed
at Ottawa with great satisfaction
Aside from his general popularity
throughout the empire it is felt that the
presence of so distinguished a member
of the royal family at Ottawa will give
the capital more political and social i'm
portance than ever.
The official confirmation of the ap
pointment has been received by Ear
Grey in cablegram from Lewis Vernon
Harcourt, the colonial secretary. Ear
Grey's term expires in September anC
it is expected the duke and duchess o.
Connaught will take up their oficia
residence in Rideau hall some time thi
month.

KING GEORGE GETS MAD AT
STATEMENT OF HIM SAID
To BE UNTRUE.
Paper Claims That when He Was
Prince of Wales He Was illegally
Mylius-His Bail Fixed at 500, 900
London Papers Briefed the Article

London, Jan. 3O.-The News of the
World says that King Georges ad-
visers have instituted criminal libel
proceedings with the object of ending
once for all rumors freely circulated for
years that his majesty, when Prince of
Wales, was morganatieally married to
daughter of an admiral at Malta.
The defendant is Edward f. Myths,
who is said to be connected with the
Liberator, published in Paris, which
printed the statements ON which the
libel suit is based. Myths was recently
arrested, charged at Bow street and
sent to Jail. subsequently, on his own
application to the judge, bail was fixed
at 100000.
According to statement in the Lib
orator the defendant intends to enter a
plea of justification and also to sub
pena the king as a witness. The con-
stitutional law, however, makes it i'm
possible for his majesty to give evil
dence in his own court, notwithstand-
ing he may be anxious to do so.
The Morning Post published long
article on the constitutional law in
such an unusual case, and says that
the police arrested Myths during a
legal vacation and had abstained from
charging him in police court, ac
cording to the usual procedure.
Application was made to the vaca-
ton judge in chambers, who issued a
writ of habeas corpus and then com
mitted him to custody, fixing his bail al
100000, which the prisoner was un
able to furnish.
The result of this action of the
police was that Myths was legally
committed without publicity and unit
recently the London papers hav,
made but brief reference to the case
1t is understood the proceedings il
the kings libel suit are taken under
statute 600 years old.

FEARFUL VOLCANO ERUPTs.
Island of Philippines Sinks Two Feet
in Few Minutes.

Manila, Jan. 31.-Observers sent out
eruptions of the volcano Taal have tele-
graphed the eruptions occurred Monday
morning, simultaneously with two pro-
longed earthquakes.
The island upon which the volcano is
located sank two feet. An electrical
storm continued for two hours, with
deafening thunder.
Lava and stones were belched 5000
feet. The constabulary assisted the
panic stricken natives. One cavalry
man was killed by the wreck of house
on the lake shore. Following the sink
ing of the island a wave four feet high
swept over the shore for a radius of
four miles, wrecking number of BAN
boo shacks.
These, however, had been evacuated
because of eruptions.
The terrific explosions in the air pros
trated many of the constabulary. The
observatory reports a total of 1872
shocks. The Southern railroad has not
been damaged, but three inches of mud
and ashes cover the tracks in places
which has held up traffic. The observa
tory accounts say Manila is sinking. II
is said that Taal and Lemery have beer
considerably damaged by mud and
stones.
Talsya is partly submerged and the
crops ruined.

May Divide Stevens County.

Olympia.-Saturday the house com
mittee on counties and county bound
aries held two protracted sessions
and decided to report out the bill for
setting off Pend Oreille county from
Stevens, with the difference that in
stead of being "teamed " with Spokane
county in Judicial district the lineup
will be with cold" Stevens county, an
arrangement that will be accepted by
the petitioners.
The Methow county division win not
fare so well, as a fighting delegation
appeared before the committee from
Okanogan county, headed by T. S.
C'Lord'') Blythe, large owner of ir-
rigated lands in the Methow valley,
with t. s. Elliott of Brewster and
Representative Faulkner as good sec
onds in the opposition to the proposed
division. The principal reasons ad-
vanced are the large debt of Okanogan
and the lack of assessable values in
the new territory.

Committee.

are to be exacted. The royalty is
placed at cents ton If the lease is
made within 10 years from the passage

VATICAN CLASHES
WITH GERMANY
Theology Professors Required to Take
Oath Disavowing Modernism

Berlin, Jan. 30.-Widespread interest
has been aroused by letter from the
pope to Cardinal Fisher, archbishop of
Cologne, relative to the oath disavow-
ing modernism which is now required
of the theology. professors by the
Vatican.
This ruling has already resulted in
the withdrawal of several members of
the theological faculty at the Univer-
sity of Munich, and has called forth
a sharp controversy.
After declaring that the bishops
should not permit foresight and eau
ton to develop into faintheartedness
in connection with the driving of
clergy from office when they refuse
to defer to a new test and expressing
no surprise that those who fear for
their own positions are striving
against the edict, even perhaps calling
upon the state to prevent its being car
ried out, the pope proceeds.
Gin fulfllment of duty so far as
God IS praise is directly concerned the
struggle should not be stunned. On
the contrary it should be courageously
entered upon.
The letter sets forth that professors
of theology in state schools need not
take the oath, except when they are
at the same time occupying the pas
toral Office, but it regards as "coward-
ly Indifference the action of state
teachers who make use of the permits
sion of Rome not to take the oath be-
cause of those who, though of the
Catholic church, declare it to be a VIC
lation of human intelligence and s
hindrance to progress of science.
A recommendation follows that
temptations for other reason should
not be permitted. Newspapers of al
shades of opinion foresee government
action. The Kreuz Zeitung says
'There can be no doubt of the pope 4
intention to enter into a conflict will
the Prussian government, the conse
quences of which can not at presen
be foreseen.
The Kolnische Zeitung says: cit i
not too late to reply to this high
handed policy, thus far and no far
ther. -
The Leipzeiger Neuste Nachrichtei
says: ''The letter shows that the Vat
lean intends to proceed in the modern
list movement without consideration o
the rights of the state.'

FARMERS UNION ASKS LAW.
Ranchers Request That Threshermen
Register Number of Bushels With
County Clerk.

Members of the farmers union hope
to see the legislature make law which
will compel every owner or manager of
threshing machine to register with the
county clerk of the county in which he
operates the number of bushels
threshed.
Without this the number of bushels
produced is a matter of guesswork, the
farmers say, and they think it impor-
tant that the actual grain output of
the northwest should be known.
The farmers wish to make this a tri-
state affair and urge the passage of the
law by the Idaho and Oregon legisla-
lures as well as by that of Washington.
The matter will be taken up for dis
cussion at the big tr1-state farmers
meeting at Walla Walla next month.

all came about when a logger stepped
into the grill room dressed in his rough
clothing. A waiter suggested that he
leave. Instead he reached into a gunny
sack which he carried and drew out a
little black and white animal, known as
the polecat, whirled it against the bar
and himself dashed away. The place
was closed for the night.
