RABBI SILVER
BACK FROM EAST

Rabbi Joseph Silver of Temple
B'nai Abraham, who for the past two
weeks has been touring the east, visit
ing New York, Baltimore, Buffalo,
Chicago, Albany and Washington, D.
c., returned to the city last evening.
He says it was one of the most inter-
esting and enjoyable trips he has ever
taken but he was glad to get back to
Virginia.
It being his first visit to New York
city since boyhood days, Rabbi Silver
was much impressed with the great
ness of Americas metropolis. It is
hard to imagine a city growing to
such tremendous size, for one who
has lived in the smaller cities of the
middle west for some time," said
Rabbi Silver this morning. "The
hustle and hustle Of activity is bewild-
tested in news from the seat of the
great European struggle. Great
crowds watch day and night, the great
electric bulletins in front of the news
paper offices, where are flashed
news Of the battling armies. Here one
sees a veritable congress of nations
and hears the shouts and songs and
| other patriotic demonstrations made
by groups of Germans, French, Rus
slams, Austrians or English as some
! victory of their fatherland is recorded
j., on the boards"
! At Washington Rabbi Silver met
Congressman Stevens from Minnesota
who is warm personal friend of his
and was introduced to President VIII
son at the White House. The presi-
dent declined to discuss the European
war. While there he visited many
historic spots including George Wash.
ington's grave at Mount Vernon and
the old slave market in the heart OF
the city.

G. o. P. IN sPLIT-UP

The G. o. P. is in another scrap.
All because Charley Deneen, former
governor, succeeded in debating to
the Republican slate-making COM
mittee and named about whoever he
pleased.
The Fred Busse forces, which had
come to the meeting, became sore
when their ambition to land Municipal
Judge Better as candidate for county
Judge ran them into stone wall.
The Deneenites picked Geo. K.
Schmidt for sheriff, Ed r. Litzinger
for county treasurer, John E. Northup
for county judge, Lewis D. Sits for
county clerk, and Noble B. Judah, Jr.,
for probate judge.
So now all the anti-Deneen men
threaten to come together and fix up
a slate of their own. A meeting of
the disgruntled Republicans will be
held this afternoon. 1t is expected
that Fred Busse, Ralph G. Otis, Form
er Alderman Barney Snow, Edward ].
Brundage and the Lorimer leaders
will all be there.

ALL MOURN ROYAL COUPLE

Trieste, Austria, July 2-Into a
city draped in black, whose bells toll
ed requiem from a thousand spires,
the bodies of the assassinated Arch
duke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and
his wife, the Countess of Honenberg,
were born here from the battleship
Viribus Units, which brought them
from Herzegovina after the murder
by a boy anarchist. AS the bodies
were carried to a special train for
Vienna, priests stood all along the
route with lighted candles. Crepe
hung from the houses and flowers
were thrown before the caskets by
hundreds of children.
Admission that anarchists plotted
the death of the assassinated arch
duke was squeezed out of an Italian
named Alessandrini, who recently re-
turned here from Paterson, N. j., and
was arrested for completely in the
double murder at Serajevo.

The Japanese battleship Hizen, un'

States revenue cutter Thetis far as

passing along the horizon at the first
break Of dawn this morning while
Captain J. w. Mants, master Of the big
American schooner Berkeley, was
treated to the surprise of his life as
he stood on the afterdeck and witness
ed the efforts of the two vessels to
overhaul his command.
About this time the veteran skipper
gave an order which brought a new
and dazzling star-spangled banner to
the masthead. Almost at the same in
stant the Hizen, then quite close to
the windjammer, was seen to take a
more southerly course, while the
schooner Berkeley was rounding Dia-
mond Head.
That the Japanese officers in the
Hizen were Of the opinion that the ar
