News of what is happening gradually has reached the city's in- habitants. It is now the chief topic of conversation. Among the hitherto undisclosed | features of the concordat is a pro- viston for recognition by the pope of the kingdom of Italy, with Rome as its capital, and the House of Savoy as,its ruling dynasty. Much of the discussion that is heard on the streets of Rome with regard to the mccord is from citl- zens who want to know just how they will be affected by the gov- ernment’s acceptance of the canon law. There is a fecling, however, that there will be no radical changes, since, it is said, the fun- damentals of canon law and civil law are the same. _ Law of Guarantees Ends The first article of the treaty s now known to declare that the law of guarantees of May 13, 1871, which established the status of the rapacy in Rome after the fall of the temporal power, has come to ag _end. . There follow articles which ac- knowledge the complete sovereignty of the supreme pontiff over “the jeity of the vatican” with the pres- ent boundary enlarged as far as Cavalleger gate following the vati- can walls and comprising 8t.

Giving the Boy A Second Chance The young man who inherited from his father and started out blithely to build his modest patrimony into a great fortune, often wishes in later life that he might have had a second chance with the money he has lost. . To give a son the fullest advantage of his inheritance a thoughtful father should place it in trust with this company under an agreement which will give the boy more and more control over the inl finu.iually eritance until, by the time he has gained the experi- ence and judgment essential to its safety, the fund is his to do with as he likes. We welcome the opportunity to work out in conference with you a plan suitable for your situation.

OBREGON ASSASSIN EXECUTED AT NOON (Continued From First Page) all of you." But if Toral was cheerful, mem- bers of his family could mot con- trol their emotions. Once in his preaence they gave vent to their feel- ings in tears. He took the baby, which he had never seen, in his arms and fondled it, kissing it on its cheeks. Permission to Toral's young wite to visit him in the prison came with such suddenness as almost to cause her collapse. Throughout Thursday night she had prayed she would bs granted this one boon, she said but had believed her plea hopeless, When the messenger arrived with word of permission she bundled her infant in & shawl and took it to its father for the meeting it was far too young to comprehend. Family Stays Late Toral's family remained with him until a late hour. When they left a Catholic priest arrived. Toral con- fessed, and was given absolution. The priest departed saying he would return this morning to afford spiritual consolation in the hours prior to axecution. ‘Toral was allowed a razor for the | first time in geveral days late yester- day. He shaved and then, with his jailors’ permission, donned the black trousers and college sweater he wore when he entered the prison. He drew two cartoons yesterday. One was of an old man sitling in a barber chair, entirely bald cxcept for one white hair, but heavily bearded. The barber was shown asking, “How shall 1 trim your beard, 8ir?” and the old man re- plying, “Not my beard, I came to have my hair cut.’ This drawing was given by Toral to the prison barber. The other, a sketch of Captain Vieyra, chief jailer at the penitentiary, had penned across the back of it “An expression of gratitude for good treatment reccived at the jailer's hands.” It was given to Vicyra. In the infirmary of the same prison the nun, Mother Conception, convicted at the same time as Toral as “intellectual author” of the crime and sentenced to 20 years imprison- ment, s seriously il due to compli- cations growing out of an old accl- dent and her imprisonment. MOSLENS WAYLAY SOLITARY HINDUS - (Continued From First Page) last night. Someone struck him on the head with a stick. At the hospital his wound was dressed and he was dis- charged in a satisfactory condition. More Trouble in Sight An official statement says that 55 mills and railway workshops were in operation today, but that tran service was disorganized. The situ- ation continues serious and it is feared further trouble may be ex- pected. As far as could be ascertalned the casualties between Friday noon aud Saturday noon were 35 killed anl 193 injured. At the suggestion of the municipal authorities, the governor ordered liquor shops to be closed immediate- ly while well known rough charac- ters were rounded up by the police. All gatherings were dispersed and greater military forces were em- | ployed. Peace cfforts, picious beginnings, have collu and the sole hope of preventing further outbreaks appears to be the military. Despite heavy reinforce- ments, which have given certain af- fected areas the appearance of ed camps, hope for speedy sup- pression of the fighting was not strong today. Hospitals Filled Hospitals are crowded with cas- ualties, the condition of many of whom is most serious. Troops patrol the strects and so far us is possible the people in the affected districts are/being kept indoors. Because of this policy and.the danger of making excurgions intp the riot arcus only plece-meal descrip- tions of the fresh outbrcak last night have been available. A parade in which both Hindus and Pathans \participated to celebrat: “peace” be- t which had fghts when rural Hindu peasants, imported to aid in the anti-Pathan warfare, refused to accept the truca. One explanation of the collapse of the peace parade and truce was that the head of the procession stumbled upon the body of a Hindu who had been stabbed to death. Hindus and Pathan Moslems, who moments be- ifore had been friends, turned on |cach other and the ensuing battle was the most bitter of the week. In the Pydhownie district troops lin armored cars attacked the rioters and were forced to fire with ma- chine guns. Thirty were killed inf this one attack, and more than 100 injured. fiRL SCOUTS HAVE COURT OF AWARDS Novel Treasure Hunt Eods With Finding Merit Badges The court of awards held Friday at the St. Marks parish house was in the form of a treasure hunt.
