Declares Pontiff Acts Spon- taneously and Not For
 Central Powers.
REICHsTAG SEEMS
 WIDELY DIVIDED
Related Report From Bracel0na, by Courier to French Frontier, Be- :, scribes RiOting and General Strike as Serious.

Copenhagen, Aug. 21.-Dr. Mi chaelis, the imperial German chan cellor, at the convening of the reichs- tag main committee today in Berlin, said the recent peace proposal of Pope Benedict bad been issued spon- taneously and not at the wish of the central powers.
 The committee was informed by him that the popes note would be answered only after the closest con sideration with the reichstag.
 The preliminary report of the ses- sion of the richstag committee indi- cates that the parties are divided re- garding the pope's note on the same lines as on the reichstag resolution. The Conservatives, National Liberals. and Germanic forces are declared to be reserved, while the Socialists. Radicals and Centrists are said to approve of the action of the pope.
 RiOting Is Serious.
 Barcelona, Spain, Saturday, Aug. 1S.-(By courier to the French front fer, Aug. 21, by Associated Press. )- Violent rioting has been taking place in Barcelona and in the neighboring towns since last Monday, when a gen eral strike was proclaimed.
 Shooting from the roof of houses and from behind closed shutters has been going on daily. A considerable number of persons has been killed and many have been wounded, tho no rellaDle figures are available.
 Artillery was brounght into ac- tlon against some buildings which were strongly held by the rioters and two houses were destroyed by she'll fire.
 While these events are going on 1n barcelona and other Catalonian towns, reports are circulated by word or mouth of great disturbances in parts or Spain and republic be- Ing proclaimed at Bilbao and Sara sossa It is impossible to learn the truth regarding these rumors, as a rlsld censorship is being exercised over telephone and telegraph lines "nu newspapers.

JANE GOODWIN AUSTIN

The approaching tercentenary cele-
 bration of the voyage of the May
 flower and the coming to America of
 the Pilgrim Fathers-and Mothers is likely to revive popular interest in
 the work of Jane Goodwin Austin,
 best known for her series of Pilgrim stories. She was born in Worcester, Mass, on Feb. 25, 1881, and yesterday
 was the eighty-sixth anniversary of her birth. While still girl she be- gan to write, at first purely for her own amusement, stories of her New England Pilgrim ancestors. She was at length induced to offer some of these stories for publication, which she did under a pen-name, and they were immediately accepted. She seemed to be entering upon very promising literary career, but at the age of seventeen she was married to Loring Henry Austin, and for thir- teen years thereafter she wrote noth- ing for publication. She then took up her pen again, with energy and suc- cess, and until her death at Roxbury in 1894 was a prolific contributor of tales to the best magazines. Her most popular works of fiction dealt with the old times in New England, and were admirable pen pictures of the period. Among her most widely read novels were "The Desmond Hun dred'' and Mrs. Beauchamp Brown

A MERRY WIDOW.

Mrs. B. writes: "I am only 26, but have been a widow for two years. I am. very jolly and happy in my dis position, and because the other sex find me good company I am seldom invited by the women of this town to their home or lamusements. How can remedy this? It is getting irksome to me"
 The reason must lie with yourself. Perhaps you. are over pleasant to the beax of these women, or have made attempts to cut them out. A widow is obliged to exercise great care in avoid
 ing jealousy in the hearts of her own sex She who is feared as al dangerous rival is ostracized by other women as much as possible Cultivate the so- ciety and friendship of women. Exert yourself to be as good company with them as you do to the men who find you so agreeable. A group of deter mined women can in the end make or mar your popularity. Women who make friends of women always get along best and are invited everywhere, therefore having the opportunity of seeing and being seen. Men like the woman whom her sex cares for, grad ually edging away from the one de- tested by them no matter how jolly and generally attractive she may be-.
