Tried to Enter Vatican.

Since August OF last year. Pesanti said.
he had been trying to enter the Vatican,
but had not been able to do so. There
fore, yesterday he had decided to kill
some of the ecclesiastics holding ONCE
under the Pope.
He added that he is neither q, socialist
nor an anarchist. but an anticlerical
who hated all religions. He tried to get
a place as a gardener in the Vatican
grounds, and wait for an opportunity to
shoot his holiness as he was taking a.
walk in the gardens. When, after many
efforts, he realized the impossibility of
this plan, or Of the alternative of reach
ing the papal apartments, owing to the
strict surveillance maintained by the
Vatican guards. he at last decided to
kill a priest at random. He purchased a
revolver. and went to st. Peters where
he waited in one Of the chapels till the
mass was ended. Then he drew his
weapon, and aimed at the celebrant as
the latter passed him on his way to the
sacristy. Much to his regret, he said,
he missed the priest.

tempts to Kill Canon at
Mass in st. Peters.

ROME, April 5.-The attempt Of q man.
who is undoubtedly insane, to kill Mgr.
Orzi, one of the canons Of st. Peters s, at
the close OF mass yesterday, caused great
alarm for a time, particularly as it be-
came known that he had designs against
the Pope himself.
After he had been seized by the police.
one OF whom he wounded. the man, sub
sequently identified as Pietro Pesanti, de-
clared that he hated the Pope and the
priests, who had been his ruin.
Pesant told a rambling story during
his examination, in which he said he had
rich uncle and aunt, whose heir he
would have been IL the priests had not in
duced them to leave their property to re-
ligious institutions.
This exasperated him, he continued. sx-
citedly. and he killed them both For
years he was in prison. and finally. being
released, came to Rome to obtain his last
revenge-that is, kill the Pope.

"NIiss Nobody From Starland'

Miss Nobody From Starland" is a rather attractive name for musical show, but just why it was applied to the offering at the Jefferson theatre last night does not appear with any great ex- actitude. However. what's in name any way? And what's in plot, either for that matter? Especially a musical comedy plot?
 The first act of the performance last night had little to recommend it, save he
 appealing potraiture of an Italian girl, Nina made by Miss Bertee Beaumonte, a dancer of much ability and charming presence Her little song "Ah, Marie and the dance which accompanied it saw cd the first act from being mediocre and prepared those of us who were present for something better yet to come.

The vessels will be assembled into five divisions-two on the Pacific and three on the Atlantic coast each in command of senior captain of the service.

"The Goose Girl, at Biiou

The universal opinion of "The Goose Girr' is that it is the prettiest, clean est, incest and most attractive play of the Bijou season. That the public likes play and company Is evidenced by the fact that the Thursday night audience was more than twice the size of that Monday night and that every audienca this week has shown an increase over. the previous night. There is a matinee Saturday and performances nightly. woman Against Woman is at the Bijou next week, and one of the best classes of drama will be shown.

Black stone. was brutally treated by his father from early childhood was testified to bN ais mother, Mrs. W. l.. l.. Spencer when she took the witness stand today in his behalf. Ever since a severe beating over the head with the butt of a heavy whip the boy had complained of pains in the head. she said Often, she said, he had attacks of frothing at the mouth and making strange sounds in his throat while his eyes looked like "a wild animal" Mrs. Spencer testified that many of her own relatives and those of her husband had been insane.

leading part, Hiss Beumonte as Nina and Miss Emery as the soubrette contributed to the general hilarity and helped out with the specalties. Mir. Wilson did his best work as a fun maker. He was de- cidedly conical.
 The third part of the performance show cd a prettily mounted cafe scene and pre- sented ''convential' musical comedy. Some more specialties were introduced and the precariously thin plot was herein wound u., or unwound, 1t would be difficult to dicide which was the case.
 The dancing of Mir. Nemeycr. the sing ing and dancing of Miss Beaumonte, the comedy efforts of MT. Wilson and the prima donna numbers Of Miss Olive Vail who has voice of good quality, were potent factors in the success of a per- formance that was very pleasing through out and seemed amply to justify Manager Douglas of the Jefferson theater in booking Miss Nobody From Starland," for Q return engagement next month.
 Miss Beaumonte enjoyed personal triumph last night. She has unusnal ability and personality that instantly captivates. Miss vails "Jinaboo" song was one of her best numbers.

The Pasm0re Trio

The great popularity of the three Pasmore sisters, who come to the Jeff ferson theatre Sunday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, was evidenced by the good ad- vance sale of seats which began yes terday morning. Indications are that an exceptionally large audience of Bir- mingham and Alabama music lovers will greet the celebrated trio at their first appearance in Birmingham Sun day afternoon. Applications for seats were received from out of town people on the first day of the seat sale.
 The three sisters, Miss Mary, Miss Dorothy and Miss Suzanne Pasmore, have won a rather unique distinction in the musical world. They are Amer ican girls but have studied eXten sively abroad and have appeared In the best lin, cello and piano are the three in struments used by the sisters in their ensemble playing. in which 1t Is claim
 ed they are unrivaled. Three musicians of such marked distinction and from one family is with but few precedents. Every member of the trio is an indi- vidual artist. One feature of their work which has contributed largely to their popularity, 1t is claimed, is the fart that their efforts are never too classical but easily interpreted and appre- ciated by the average audience The concert Sunday afternoon will long be remembered, no doubt, among Bir- mingham social and musical circles.
