HOW HOME RULE MIGHT FALL.

If the Home Rule bill becomes
law armed rebellion on the part of
100000 Ulster volunteers is expected.
But if the Liberal Ministry does not
stand firm in forcing Home Rule
through Parliament it will probably
be compelled to resign and take the
whole question to the voters at gen.
eral election. In the present excited
state of public opinion there might be
Unionist victory, which would undo
all the Home Rule progress that has
been made in the last few years. To
bring about just that result is proba-
bly, the real purpose of the leaders of
the Ulster rebellion. They could not
possibly expect to succeed in IA con-
fiict of arms against al the rest Of
Ireland, backed by the British army
and navy.

MATTRESS THAT FLOATS.

A noh-sinkable mattress has been
invented which is as useful for dwell
ers along the lowlands of American
rivers as for ocean-goiRg steamships.
A special buoyant fiber is used in fill
ing the mattress which absolutely
prevents it from sinking.
The mattress easily sustains the
weight of an ordinary individual as al
most all Paris can testify, having
watched several young women float
down the Seine comfortably stretched
out on one of the non-sinkable mat
tresses.

Teach Dancing in School

AS an experiment, the New York
Board of Education is allowing eve
ming dancing in public scrool No. 81,
Brooklyn. Two hundred and fifty boys
and girls were present at the first
dance. There were teachers to in
struct them in the various steps, and
in department. The board of educa-
tion wishes to see if such dances will
have good effect in keeping the boys
and girls off the streets and away
from Objectionable entertainments.

Hear the Dogs Of War

There are rumors of impending war
between Russia and Germany. In the
opinion of some journals commonly
well informed the "scare" this time
has solid foundation. 1t is certain
that Russia is rapidly increasing her
army and is borrowing the money
with which to do it.
Russia has forbidden the exporta--
ton of horses. This is taken as proof
that war is regarded as at least pos
sible. The horse export trade is too
profitable to be stopped without grave
reason.

VILLA PREPARING
TO ATTACK S.PEDRO
Federals Rely on Surrounding Flat
Country to Hold of Rebels.

Torreon. = San Pedro, 26 miles
northeast of here, it is said, will in all
probability be the scene of the next
battle.
San Pedro, hill-girt city whose
natural defenses must be approached
over fiat country, held a federal gar
rison all the time the battle of Torreon
was being fought, but this force Was
prevented by a rebel column from
coming to the assistance of General
Velasco.
General Villa has been building up
his force in the last few days for the
assault. The defeat of the federals at
San Pedro would, it is said, remove
the last federal force from this dis
trict.
The whereabouts of the troops
driven from this city last week is not
known, although it is believed Velasco
is headed for Saltillo.

CARDINAL CH|ESA
IS ELECTED Pope
[Continued From First Page1

He served as secretary to the late
Cardinal Rampolla.
He was appointed substitute secre-
tary of state in 1901, and in 1907 he
was elected to the post OF advisor to
the Holy office.
In 1907 he was appointed papal nunuto
of Madrid in succession to Mgr. Ri
naldini, but this appointment was can
celled three days later This incident
had occurred just before he was made
archbishop of Bologna. When Mgr.
Della Chiesa was given this post in
was declared in Rome that IL was
modern religious ideas, Bologna be-
ing the headquarters of the National
Democratic League, whose members
advocated what is known as mod
ernism' in religion.
In January, 1914, while still at
Bologna, the present pope issued a
pastoral letter strongly condemning
the tango.
1t has been ia years since the time
of the last pope Benedictine. In his
election to the papacy in 1740 Cardi-
nal Prospero Lambertini assumed that
title. 1t Is an interesting fac that the
new pope was archbishop of Bologna
while Pope Benedictine XIV was born
in Bologna.
According to the dispatch from
Rome dated at $50 yesterday after
{ noon and received in New York early
to-day the White Star Line steamer
Canopic bearing Cardinals Gibbons
and O'Connell to Rome was not due
at Naples until tomorrow. Therefore
1t is probable that neither of these two
American cardinals participated in
the election of the new pope.

PE|vROSE SPEAKS
IN OLD CRAWFORD
Senatorial Candidate Sees the Idle
Mills as a Result of the
Democratic Tariff

Senator Boies Penrose spent yester-
day meeting the voters of the Twenty
sixth congressional district, Erie and
Crawford counties. He found the Re-
publicans of Northwestern Pennsyl-
vania enthusiastic over the prospects
of party success in November. He
was assured that his own candidacy
was growing stronger daily and that
he would carry both counties.
Senator Penrose went to Crawford
county from Pittsburgh in the morn
ing. He was accompanied by a dele
cation from Mercer county headed by
DIR. j. II. Martin, postmaster at Green
vile. The senator made the trip on
the Erie and Pittsburgh railroad
through the Shenango and Mahoning
Valleys. the most important industrial
region outside the Pittsburgh district
Both valleys present unmistakable
evidence of widespread industrial de-
preston brought on by Democratic
tariff legislation. Furnaces were idle
and the great iron and steel plants
which are not shut down are operating
with reduced forces of employees and
on only part time.
Senator Penrose was informed that
the labor vote would he cast almost
solidly for the Republican ticket and
that large Republican majorities could
be depended on in all of the counties
of that section.
