Princes Injuries.

ST. PETERSBURG, October 26.-The
latest reports received in court circles
from Spala give assurances of the re-

censed by the rigid censorship.
The secrecy with respect to the in
juries from which the crown prince is
suffering has bred a crop of sensational
rumors. The facts are that eleven days
ago a childish prank moved the little
prince to climb a high cupboard In the
hunting lodge at Spala. where the inn

prince bore his sharp pain without
fiinching. The two physicians who are
always in attendance on the prince re-
ported that he had sustained severe in
juries in the region of the liver.
A panic prevailed, but no hint Of the
truth was permitted to leak out until
his condition became critical, when the
country was startled by the physicians
bulletins.
For the welfare of Russia and the
Romanoffs the preservation Of the life
Of Crown Prince Alexis is Of paramount
Importance. He is lively child.

Whereabouts.

ence Isabel Appold, eighteen years old,
who disappeared from her home, 1917 e
street southeast. Thursday afternoon. Her
father and other relatives are distressed
over her continued absence, but none of

Mr.. Appold told the police that when
his daughter was first missed it was
thought she had called on a young wom-
an friend residing on Potomac avenue
southeast, but when he learned she had
not been there he became alarmed.
The father thought his daughter prob
ably had gone to VISIT her grandmother
at Clarendon, Va, or that she had left
home to seek employment. Miss Appold
was formerly employed at drug store
on North Capitol street, the police were
told, but she has not returned there to

boy SCOUTS SPEND DAY
AS MIMIC SOLDIERS
Take Lessons in Signaling,
Test the ''Tenderfeet,"
Engage in Sham Battle.

Weary from the strenuous events Of a
day spent in the open air in the coun-
try, eighty-f1ve boys, members Of the
Boy Scout Troop Of the Washington Y.
NJ. c. A., returned to the association
building soon after dark last night, then
separated to go to their homes.

under the leadership of DIR. George H.
Ashley, scout master of the troop,
tramped out to the old fort near the
north end Of Rock Creek Park on the
Military road.
Practice in Signaling.
After arriving at the fort, the first
thing the boys did was to practice those
signals of the United States Army Signal
Corps which they already knew and re-
ceive instruction in various branches OF
signaling from Lieut.. j. g. Taylor OF
the corps, who met them at the fort.
About a dozen of those in the tender
foot" class, who aspired' to be second
class scouts" were required to prepare
lunch for the entire troop. They each
had to make a fire without the aid OF
paper, and We're allowed to use only two
cook potatoes and pieces OF steak with
out cooking utensils. When the boys had
done this they We're declared second
class scouts
Candidates for the 'tenderfoot'' class
were previously put through the required
tests, and ten boys were successful in
passing muster"
Following the test the boys had a sham
battle, one-third Of them occupying the
fort and the rest attacking, with the OBJ
ject Of capturing it. Little chips Of wood
were used as ammunition. and a boy
struck by one of these chips was declared
to be dead by DR.. Ashley, who acted as
Judge of the battle. The attacking force
almost completely demolished the de-
tenders, and were declared to be the WIN
ners
The boys completed their "out-of-door
day with six-mile tramp back to the
Y NJ. c. A. building.

GOVERNOR MUST EITHER SHOOT

"BE HAPPY WITH EITHER
WITH 'TOTHER DEAR CHARM.
Err AWAY.

Chicago, July II. - Governor
Charles S. Deneen, of Illinois, in
Chicago today in conference with
his lieutenants is expected to an
nounce his final decision to defy the
bull moose" party and refuse ad-
herence to Roosevelt. That this ac-
tion will be promptly met by the
third party placing complete state
and congressional tickets in the
field in Illinois this fall is practical
ly certain.
Medlll McCormick's statement yes
terday, made after conference with
Colonel Roosevelt, was regarded as
a challenge to Deneen either to come
into the Roosevelt fold or face RI
val Republican candidate at the polls.
At conference last night the old
LaFollette crowd and the Roosevelt
adherents compromised their differ
ences and a call was issued for a
state conference in Chicago next
Monday AT that time a date will be
set and a call issued for the state
convention to select delegates to the
Roosevelt national convention, Au-
gust 8.
With Governor Deneens decision
before Mondays conference, action
probably will be taken at that time
on a Roosevelt state ticket for Illi-
nOis.

LEADERS
OPPOSING
EMERGENCY CLAUSE IN THE
PORTLAND, EUGENE AND EAST
ERN STREET CAR FRANCHISE
THREATENS ALDERMEN WITH
RECALL.

Directing to the councils action in
attaching an emergency clause to
street railway franchise which 1t
proposes to grant to the Portland,
Eugene G Eastern Railroad company
when it meets again Monday even
ing, r. A. Harris, state printing ex-
pert, is today circulating a statement
denouncing the body, and threatening
to invoke the recall upon its mem
bers should the franchise finally pass
with such clause attached Mr..
Harris is a leader Of the Socialist
party.
The Portland, Eugene & Eastern is
anxious to obtain the franchise as
soon as possible, as it contemplates
many improvements on its lines and
desires to complete them before the
state fair convenes. Evidently for
the purpose of expediting matters,
an emergency clause was attached.
Councilman Jones at the last meeting
of the council when the franchise
was agreed upon, opposed number
Of features in It, threatening to in
vcke the referendum upon it, If 1t
was passed as agreed upon He took
special exceptions to the emergency
clause and made a motion to have it
eliminated but failed
Since then he has been agitating
the subject and has found a strong
ally in State Printing Expert Harris
who is a resident of Polk county. He
is confident that the recall can be
successfully invoked on any member
who may vote in favor of having an
emergency clause attached to the
franchise.
Should the emergency clause not be
eliminated, then it means that the
company must wait three months for
the ordinance to so into effect, with
the result it cannot proceed with i'm
provements for it will not know un-
I'll the time is up whether the refer
endum will be invoked or not.
