ROYAL WELCOME FOR

British Premier to Address Great

on July 70
IRISH PEOPLE DELIGHTED

LONDON. June g.
The announcement that Mr.. Asquith.
the prime minister. will address 4 homo
rule meeting in Dublin, on July 10 next.
at which John Redmond. Mr.. Dillon. Mr.
Devlin and others will speak. has aroused
widespread attention. and has been hailed
with delight by the Irish people.
The meeting will be held in the Theater
Royal. which Is the largest building avail
able. and the difficulty OF those respon-
sible for the arrangements will be to
make provision for The hundredth part
OF those anxious to be present on what
will be unique and historic occasion.
Mr. Asquith Is, by general consent, one
OF the very ablest men who has ever held
the Office OF first minister OF the crown
In England, and MS record since he sue
ceeded Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman
in the leadership of the Liberal party
has been such as Ia commend him to tho
confidence and admiration OF the Irish
people. by whom he was wont to be re-
garded as cold and unsympathetic.
But he has. won his way to the conf
dence of the democracy of these coun-
tries by the exhibition of a spirit of SYM
pathy with ireland and with the interests
OF the workers not surpassed by any OF
his predecessors. There is not a more
democratic member in the cabinet nor
more sianch home ruler. His Irish Ma
ton" speech on the Introduction of the
home rule bill struck chord in Irish
hearts which will vibratc for many a
year to come.
Ireland will give him n welcome such
as no British minister ever received he
fore, and the world will be impressed by
the demonstration OF the strength and
una nimity OF Ireland's demand for self
government and of her desire to recipro-
cate the friendship of the British people
as person!fed in their most illustrious
ambassador.

ROME. runs g.

ROM e, JUDo d
Giuseppe salomone, bHgand, post and
p,a wright, was sentenced yesterday at
Aqula to thirty years imprisonment and
ordered to pay a fne Of $50 for tho murder
OF the mayor OF his native village. He
was acquitted OF the charge OF murder
Ing two other persons OF the ground that
there were extenuating circumstances.
Salomones life is like a romance from
the middle ages. Very many years ago
Salomone was an honest shoemaker who
loved a beautiful girl and incidentally
wrote verses. Unfortunately he found a
rival in her affections in the person of
the village mayor who charged him with
murder which had been committed in
the district Four witnesses swore to Salo-
mones guilt. and he fed from homo and
took to brigandage.
He was captured In 1893 and sentenced
to eighteen years penal servitude, but his
conduct in prison was go good that he
was released after ten years. His first act
was to kill the mayor, who in the mean
time had married his sweetheart. and tho
four men who had given evidence against
him. and throwing himself whole heart
cdly into his new profession no terrorized
all Sicily by his raids.
When captured by the police he began
10 write book of memoirs, proudly en-
titled. The Last OF the Brigands." n
play about himself. and also volume OF
poetry which is not without merit.
Salomone pleads that he Is lover OF
Justice and virtue. and that it is only ad-
verse circumstances that caused him TO
deviate from the right path.
on the occasion cf the recent attempt
on King Victor EIrmanuels life he sent
a telegram from prison expressing his
Joy at the kings escape.
He is a fine-looling man. with thick
black hair and beard and keen blue eyes
He appears in court clad in an immacu-
late black sui, and wearing kid gloves.
