said he met her when visiting in Paris

''Gaby of the lilies" she wants the
American people to call her-descended
upon New York from La Lorraine to-day
with the declaration that her life is for
the present and that her past, associated
as it was with King Manuel of Portugal,
is to be forgotten.
DO I love King Manuel now? Will
marry him II he follows me to New
York;" were the questions repeated by
her when a Washington Herald repre-
sentative was granted an interview. Her
eyes sparkled gayly and her petite body
rippled as she laughingly repeated the
questions in quaint English. Then her
answer came musically king Manuel is
in exile. He is living to-day in the past.
Ny life is of the present, and l wish the
American people to forget him when
they think Of me. I am welded. to my
art; I am here for the sake OF art My
future is to be one in which the dethroned
king will never be.
II see no reason why l should marry
Manuel II he comes to New York. Why
should he wish to marry me? He is not
a king. He Is not possessed of princely
income. Do you think he would wed
an actress and live on her salary? No.
Does Not Love Manuel.
'I do not love Manuel to-day. I laugh.
II Manuel came to New York, I would
laugh more. If Manuel came to me and
asked me to become his wife-I would
have a hard time to keep from dying
from laughter"

Gaby was attIred in a close-fitting
black silk gown, a waist OF Oriental de-
sign. As she swept from place to place,
hunched to sitting posture on one or

 very short terms. than the latter
 does from a system which provides
 for the recall. Each state should
 nave full liberty to act as it chooses in such matter, and therefore each Territory desirous of being admitted as state should have the same lib erty. I am a strong Nationalist, but I am no less a believer in the rights of the states wherever the rights of the states mean the rights of the people; and in this case the riglts of the people include the rights of the people of any state to decide upon any course of action it deems best in this matter The United States government is in honor bound to ad- nit Arizona under it's present Consti- tuition.
 Now, my friends, while in the fullest way I thus acknowledge your right to form the Constitution that you have formed and to be admitted hereunder to full membership in the Federal Union, I also visa it dis tinctly understood that while there are many provisions in your proposed Constitution with which I most heart fly agree. there are some with which I disagree, especially as affecting the judiciary. I uphold your right to act as you think fit in this mat ter, but I do not believe that the position you nave seen fit to take is wise. I feel strongly the wrongful ness of the position your opponents have taken in treating your adoption of the recall of the judiciary as a justification for refusing to admit you to the Union; vet I also emphat- ically feel that under your eondi- tions the proposal you have made is against the interests of justice, and therefore against your interest. I admit the melancholy fact that there are states where judges have so acted as to make it iustifable and neees- sary for the people to adopt meas ures for retiring all such judges from office. But speaking generally, and as regards most communities under normal conditions, I feel that it is to our self interest, to the interest of

 euss seriously the assertion that the adoption of the initiative, referendum and recall make a form of govern

 erland has adopted all three and tc say that Switzerland is not a re

Surely no one can expect to be taken seriously if he asserts that Oregon or California in its form of government is not as absolutely republican as Connecticut or Pennsyl- vania or Mississippi. This being 90, there can be no ground for refusing 10 admit a Territory to Statehood when its proposed Constitution does not essentially. differ from the actual constitutions of certain states alread,' within the Union. The principles of the initiative and referendum may or may not be adapted to the needs of a given state under similar con ditions-T believe that they are pse- ful in some communities. and ncr J.
 others-but. to deny a Territor- the right of Statehood because it i7s adopted these principles is as wrong as to say that Vermont should no. be state because its governmental system is based upon the priao.p,es of the town meeting. If the Cous-i- tuition of the United States forbiis the use of the referendum or initi1- tive, then the Constitution should be amended without delay. According to the varying conditions in each state. and according to the limita- tions upon the use of the initiative
 and referendum this use may or may not be wise in any given instance; :; but the right to the use is inherent in every community; and no com munitv should be allowed to dictate to any other community on this mat ter. It is so with the principle of recall. I do not believe in its wis dom here in Arizona, as provided in
 the Arizona Constitution; but Ari- zOna has an absolute right to try the experiment if it sees fit. Indeed, a

decent citizens who want nothing but justice in its broadest and trUest sense, not to adopt any measure which would make judges timid, which would make them fearful lest deciding rightly in some given case might arouse a storm of anger, temp pOrary, but fatal. You should shun every measure which would deprive judges of the rugged indifference and straightforward courage which it is so pre-eminently the interest of the community to see that they preserve. Some way should be provided by which in extreme eases and after careful deliberation it should be pos sible to remove judge even though the circumstances would not justify his impeachment; but I think that some much wiser method than that you have devised in your Constitu- tion should be adopted. some method free from the vicious effects which the adoption of your Constitution would, I believe, tend to cause. In any event a measure fraught with such possibility of michief as the re- call of judges, as you have provided for it. should not be adopted until by actual experiment you are driven to it as a necessary but regrettable method of doing away with some even worse evil.

 CITY OF MEXICO. March 20. = Secretary Limantour had a confer erce with President Diaz late this afternoon, They shook hands and embraced repeatedly.
 The Finance Minister entered upon the task of pacifeation with a waca- ing to all Mexicans that every day the rebellion continues danger of IT, ternational complications increases, and in support of the Diaz admins tration, made the declaration that the government would never enter upon peace negotiations with individuals under arms. His reception was in the nature of a general ovation, and was a high tribute to the minister's popularity. He said the statement that he was the bearer of conditions for the establishment of peace, was an absurdity.
 "A government" he said, "should do whatever is reasonable that the public demands, but cannot, without pain of extinguishing itself, aecede to armed pressure brought by a mis- guided country. They must lay down their arms if they wish to bring about reforms which may be deemed necessary" -.-...
 He said that the report that he
