ZARIS, June 5.—During a dispute in the Chamber of Deputies today, M. DeLargen- taye, a reactionary deputy of the Cotes {Dupuy party, excluimed: '‘Yes, you repub- licans are swindlers and traitors, and, in a way, foreigners.” A number of republican deputies pro. Yested, whereupon the speaker replied: “And your president of the republic is a thief.” ' A scrimmage, during which fisticuffs were exchanged, ensued, halt a dozen deputies, including the marquis de Dion, M. Miilevoy and M. Meslier taking part in the fighting. The fight occurred in the room of th committee of the Chamber of Deputles which was engaged in the verification of | The dispute which | tho recent elections. caused it arose over natlonalist posters, in which the republicans were attacked in violent language. Several of the national- st deputies today approved these expres- slons and in the row which followed the participants freely exchanged insults sucn as “blackguard” and “thief.” An official of the Chamber had to inter- vene between the combatants, Deputy Bachimont baving called M. Millivole a scoundrel, the latter sent M. Bachimont h! seconds, the Count de Dion and M. de Largenaye, who, in their official account of the interview, sald: ""We informed M. Bachimont of the object of our visit. He replied in unprintable language. The Count de Dion retorted by slapping his face.” M. Bachimont to the foregoing published this terse reply: ‘Count de Dion says he siapped my face. This is & lle.” It is reported that M. de Largenaye will be prosecuted for insuiting President Lou- bet.

It 16 claimed that M. Katin, who taught French at Covington years ago wnd afres H lache o T ) Hood’s Pills R ward returned to Parls, ddvised the French government all about the Craw. fords, whom he fofmerly knew while living in Covington Frank Deveneck, an artist in Clacinnaty, who resides in Covington, and kuew the Crawfords, has gone to Paris to assist 'n the investigation whick bec bees 'started by M. Katin, who is now in the employ of the French government. Four Crawford brothers lived In Coving- ton until the early 'S0s, when they lef: there, and two of them went to Paris. The French government has information that they may be the men named in the golden sealed and impressive-looking document ex- hibited by the Humberts to the great finav- clers. The brothers were John, lfenry, Maitbew and Robert. John died years ago, leaving three brothers. In the early Henry went to Kansas City and was city clerk there. Matthew and Robert went abroad and are supposed to have lived in Parie. Every circumstance indicates that they are the men whom the Humberts named as the nephews who were contesting the Crawford will and who were preventing the Humberts coming into possession of the great estates. The Crawfords were considered a wealthy family-in Covington and jt was understood that they Lad a rich uncle. The story as circulated by the Humberts to the bankers is practically the story of the important events in the lives of the Covington Craw- tords. GIFT FOR KITCHENER (Continud from First Pag.) expression of condolence with the bereaved, was adopted by a vote of 382 to 42. The Prince of Wales \ud many peeresses were present in the Jowe of Lords when Lord Salisbury moved a vote of thanks to the officers and men of the imperial forces in South Africa. The motion spectfically mentioned the colonial troops and paid a tribute to the splendid qualities of the troops who, he sald, contended, under no ordinary difficulties, against an enemy which had accumulated vast stores of mu- nitions of war and who had the advantage of fighting in & peculiar country with which they were thoroughly familiar. Lauds Colonial Troops. The premier also eald he thought the house had never before thanked, nor had such good cause to thank the colonial troops for their assistance. Not long ago many people in Europe thought that the time of the downfall of the British empire had arrived. But the colonial troops came brilliantly to Great Britain's assistance and the more Great Britain's dificulties in- creased the more colonlal loyalty had mani- fested itself, in aiding the empire to defy the hostility and bitterness of all its op- ponents. Great Britain had the assistance of a force which a few years ago was not dreamed of, and that was the subject of exultation in England. It was shown that when the country was denuded of troops, her naval supremacy was sufficient to pro- tect her, and Great Britaln was never safer than during the period of war. Earl Spencer, the liberal leader in the House of Lords, added his tribute to the British forces in South Africa, and Lord Salisbury's motion for a vote of thanks to the officers and men of the imperial forces in South Africa was carried unanimously.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., June 5.—The su. preme court, sitting en banc, today in the suit against the packers set aside the order of ouster issued yesterday against the Schwarzchild & Sulzberger company and suspended the case of that company that it might comply with the state corporation law The company will now plead in the regular way and the question of ouster and fine will be determined later by the court.

Then the company incorporated anew under the name of the 8. & S. Beef and Provision company of Kansas Olty.

MILITARY SURGEONS MEE Eleventh Annual Oonvention Opened by President of the United Btates. DELIVERS AN ADDRESS OF WELCOME Tells of Their Herolo Conduct on the Field and in the Hospitals, but Urges Still Greater Proficiency. WASHINGTON, June 5.—Before an as- semblage that crowded the National thea- ter, President Roosevelt today opened the €leventh annual convention of the Associa- tion of Military Surgeons of the United States. On the stage with the president sat Secretary of War Root, Secretary of the Navy Moody, Secretary of the Treasury Shaw, Secretary Cortelyou, Surgeon Gen- eral Sternberg of the army, Surgeon Gen- al Rixey of the navy, Surgeon General Wyman of the Marine Hospital service, President H. F. B. McFarland of the board of commissioners ot the District of Co- lumbla, Right Rev. H. Y. Satterlee, bishop of the Washington diocese of the Episcopal church, President S. 8. Adams of the Medi- cal society of the District of Columbla, and Major George Henderson, surgeon general of the National Guard of the District of Columbla, and chairman of the committee on arrangements. When the president and party arrived, the Marine band, under Director Bantel- man, struck up “Hail to the Chief,” and the audience rosponded with vigorous ap- plause. Bishop Satterlee delivered the in- vocation and Major Henderson then Intro- duced the president, who spoke as follo Speech of the President. Mr. President and Ladies and Gentlemen: 1 am glad to have the opportunity to bid welcome to the members of this associa- tlon and their friends today. The men of tkis association combine two professions, each of which is rightfully held in high honor by all capable of appreciating the real work of men—the profession of the soldler and the profession of the doctor. Conditions ‘n “modern civilization_tend mcre and more to make the average life of the community one of great softness, of great ease, compared to what has been the case In the past, and, gentlemen, together with all the advantiges that have come frcm this softening of life, thus rendering it more easy, there are certaln attendant disadvantages, and it is a very necessary thing that there should some pro- fessions, some trades, where the demands are made now. as have been made in the past upon the heroic qualities in a man, and those demands are made alike upon the soldier and upon the doctor, and how much more upcn these who are both sol- diers and doctors: upon the men who have continually to face all the responsibilities and all the risk faced by their brothers in the civilian branch of the profession and who also in tme of war must face much the same rieks, often exactly the same risks, that are faced by thelr brothers in arms whose training is to kill and not to cure. (Laughter and applause.) It has been my good rortune, gentlemen, to see you both at work in the field, to see them carrying the wounded and dyin from the fring Line, themselves as mucl exposed to danger as those they were res- cuing, and to see them working day and night'in the fleld »aepitals afterward, when even the intesity the strain could hardly keep them awake, so fagged out were they by having each to do the work of ten. (Applause.) Value of the Association. I welcome you here. I am the chance of seeing you and a word of congratulation to you upon t| association. In all our modern life we have found It absolutely indispeneible to supple- men the work of the individual by the work of individuals gathered into an assoclation. Without this work of the assoclation you cannot give the highest expression to the individual endeavor and it would be a great misfortune if the milita of the surgical and medical professions did not take every advantage of their op- ortunities in the same way that the members of the medical surgical profession who are not in the my And navy or the marine hospital service, but who are in clvil life outside I am glad to see you gathered In this soclation, and just one word of warnin; Pay all possible heed to the scientific side Of your werk. Perfect yourselves as ecien- tific men, abie to work with the best and most delicate apparatus, and never for one moment forget, especially the higher officers among you, that in time of need you will have to do your work with the scantest possible apparatus (laughter and applause) and that then your usefulness will be proportioned. not upon the ade- Quacy of the complaint that you did not have apparatus enough, but upon the way you have done with' what you have. (Loud applause.) Remember that and re- member also (this applied especlally to the higher officers) that you have got to sup- plement in vour calling the work of the surgeon with ‘*he work of the adminfs- trator. 1Ap‘flnu-e.) You have got to be doctors and military men and able ad- ministrators. I thank you. (Applause.) When the president concluded he re- turned to the White House with his party, the Marine band playing the “‘Star Span- gled Banner” as thoy left the theater. Commissioner McFarland then made the formal address of welcome, in behalt ot the cit{zens of the capital, and Dr. Adams delivered an address in behalf of the medi- cal profession. Numerous other addresses were made, interspersed with music by the Marine band. _The patriotic airs of the band were heartily cheered by the sudience. BALLIETT IS FOUND GUILTY Conviet lad to have of Using Mails to Defraud After Having Two Trial DES MOINES, June 5.—Leston Balliett wi found guilty of using the mails to de- fraud this afternoon, the jury returning a verdict at 3:25. But a few moments prior to rendering the verdict the jury had asked the court for imstructions as to whether it should take into consideration the de- fendant’s acts previous to the date of the indictment. The court stated that he had admitted testimony to that effect. The jury then retired and remained out only ten minutes. Judge Munger gave the defendant until June 26 to make application for a new trial, argument for which will be heard in_July. This present trial of Balliett was begun on May 20 and has continued without delay excepting one day, when a juror was fll. A former trial, started last November, wi terminated by the death of one of the rors, 8o this was virtually the second trial. In instructing the jury the judge stated that it was not necessary to prove that any person actually was defrauded by Balllett; that it was not essential to know whether Balliett told the truth or not in the circu- lars which he gent out or to show any at- tempt to defraud; that it was necessary for the government to show that it was intention to defraud at the time the letters complained of in the indictment were malled, and not subsequent thereto, and that if his intention to defraud came after he malled the letters he should be found not gullty; and, furthermore, that it was not necessary to prove that Balllett was the originator or author of the letters if he was a party to the attempt to defraud. lowa Democrats Meet.

Alfalfa Flourishes in Gumbo. PIERRE, 8. D., June 6.-—(Special.)—G. W. Lumley, on his ranch just east of the city, ten yearse ago sowed two fields in alfalfa, one on a sandy soll near the river, and the other on gumbo, about a mile back from the stream. For the first year the sand land showed the best growth, and. the gumbo did not make much of a showing. This year the conditions are reversed. The fleld on the gumbo, of about twenty acres stands thick, standing thirty inches high. That on the sand partly died out lest winter, and he has been compelled to reseed a large part of it. while that which is left will not in any way tompare with the gumbo tract.

NOT VERY PROUD, BUT PUFFED UP Remarkable Works of Art in Com- plexion, Pose and Garments Dis- played—How They Are Molded and Made Up. A great change has taken place within the last few years In the ladies who live in our shop windows. At one time, re- lates the New York Times, each one was exactly like her neighbor in bair and com- plexion, usually a golden-haired blonde, who endeavored to educate the taste of women shoppers by wearing the emartest of frocks, hats and coats. But there were disadvantages In this. The wax blonde was obliged to wear in the course of her varled existence all sorts and kinds = of colors and materials whether they sulted her particular style of beauty or not. To be sure she was well able to do this on account of her fine waxen complexion, but at the same time it did not give much of an idea to the brunette shopper of the effect of certaln shades and colors which she considered her own. She complained, and so there has been a gradual revolu- tfon in the wax figure world. The improvement which has taken place, it 1s sald, is largely due to the fact that figures which were originally made in Ger- many and France are now home products and are exceptionally well made. Figures which were at one time nothing more than overgrown wax dolls now show character and expression. There is a wide varlety of types, and even gray-haired women are represented in wax. It Is all in line with the efforts of the merchants who are con- stantly vying with each other in the meth- ods of attractively showing the beautiful goods they sell. There {s as much change of style in show window figures as there is in the fashions in women themselves. As at times the blonde, the brunette or the auburn-haired woman is the most admired, so the differ- ent type of wax window Iadies have thelr day. Just at present there is a special demand for auburn-haired beauties and they are the most expensive of all. There is o wide selection of lay figures from which a merchant may make a cholce— blondes of three different shades, three different tones of auburn-haired women, and brown, light brown, olive and dark brown, to say nothing of the gray, which latter is less often required than any of the others. The Popular Blonde. For general all-round use the golden blonde s always popular. It s perhaps for the same reason that the blonde doll with flaxen curls is the favorite with the child that the blonde wax figure window lady is to be seen year in and year out. The dark- est of the brown-haired figures are more often used than the nondescript brown which gives neither blonde nor brunette tones. Children of the wax-figure world are universally blondes, and are in great demand in sizes of from two to six years. It is a work of art tc make a wax figure, and it is expensive when finished. The same methods are used as for the flgures representing famous people in the musees. though there are degrees of excellence, and it is simpler to make a model face than a copy from a picture or cast, as fs done when a llkeness is required. A speclally prepared wax is used, which will stand 20 degrees below zero of cold weather and 125 degrees of heat, extremes which would have either seamed the faces of the old- fashioned wax dolls with cracks or dis- solved their rounded cheeks Into flesh- colored tears. Real halr which comes from Germany and Italy is used, and 1t is “planted”—a technical term—into their heads a hair at a time; their ekins are delicately tinted in pretty pink tones, the hair {s dressed in the style of the aay, and the head, when it is complete, is very life- ke, Delicate Work by Women. All the more delicate work on the figures is done by women, and In a little establish- ment in New York from which these waxen models are sent out, not only into different parts of the United States, but to Europe as well, a half a dozen pretty young girls are kept constantly emploved. The greater Dumber of them are hair planters and dressers, and in the former work their fingers move with lightning-like rapidity. This must be the case, for an expert halr planter will cover three bald wax heads ¢ach with a luxuriant growth of blonde, brown or auburn locks in a day, and it would take a magic hair restorer to excel that. Hair 1s one of the expensive parts of the figures. Extra long blonde hair with a nat ural wave is worth $2 an ounce, and an auburn-haired wax shop lady can buy her red-gold crown for a trifie under $5. Short golden blonde curls are used as a rule for children, and to obtair these, as a matter of economy, the straight bair 1s curied. It is wound securely around irons which are thrust into bofling water and allowed to remain there for a time. On removal it is slowly dried In an oven, after which the curl is warranted permanent. Upon the amount of wax used the cost of the completed figure depends, and the exhibition lady contains just much wax as there is to be seen outside her clothes. She will be, according to the style of clothes she is to wezr, a one-half, three- fourths, or full-bust figare, and e may have only wax hands, though for an even- ing dress she will require full length wax arms. A first-cl figure of this kind will cost from $55 to $75 for the wax part alos The papler mache body comes from an- other establishment. If she has wax arms she will be more valuable by from $20 to $35. When all is completed and well made this wax lady Has a long period of usefulness before her. She will last a lifetime if she is treated like a lady, the manufacturer says as he views his handiwork with the pleasure of an artist. She may need a lit- tle rejuvenating once a year; may want her bands manicured and her complexion re- touched. Certainly that is but little to ask for a waxen beauty who devotes her life to her wearing of beautiful clothes. Occa- tlopally her hands require a bath more often than this, and in a big New York shop where a great many figures are used & shopgirl can be seen now and then wan- dering like some kind of a modern Blue- beard from one figure to another, unscrew- ing the hands and carrying the gruesome pile away~{n her apron. It sometimes happens that the wax lady outlives ber usefulness to the particular merchant for whom she was made. That 1s not a hopeless case, for she is practically as good as new after she is sent back to Rer birtbplace. An allowance In the cost of a new figure is made for her return, and she s freshened up and begins a new period of life in a new place. Wax women's heads are more expensive tban those of men, though the faces of the latter are more dificult to make. The long bair of the women has much to do with this, the short hair which goes into the head and on to the mustache or beard of the man's face being comparatively in- expensive. It 1s a certaln ruggedness in the face of the man which it requires an additional skill to impart. “You can flatter & woman &s much as lnu Uke,” #ald the manufacturer, speaking of his wax people as if they were human belngs, “and it will be all right, but just as soon as you begin to flatter a man you spoil him.” It is the genersl outlines which are re- quired in the papler mache figures which form the bodles of the wax people, and there is not &0 much to say ulout them, For the women it ls always the average figure, the same figure which is requirsd for the real woman In the cloak and suit departments. It must, of course, always follow the styles of the day, at one time the high bust and full hips and now the slender hips, Tow bust and straight front. An increasing number of figures is belng used as the large shops develop and smaller ones follow In the line of up-to-date meth- ods. In no way can smart clothes be seen to so great advantage as upon a good wax figure, where gown, coat and can be shown at once. Where big exhibitions of PFrench model gowns are given in individual sbops very many figures are used at a time. The number of figures used by shopkeepers varies from 1 to 250. One merchant recently bought 100 figures at once, a stock which cost him some thousands of dollars. BISHOP TALKS OF CHARITY Thinks Reliet Work in Every Shonld Have One Cene tral Office. City “Charitable organizations in & city in or- der to do any #o0od should have one man at the head, even if there are a number of dif- ferent organizations. To this man every person who appMes for assistance and who is not known to be worthy should be re- ported, so that the applicant’s needs could be investigated.” So sald Biehop Spaulding in discussing the recent National Charities and Correc- tion cpnference held in Detroit, at which he delivered an address. ““And more than that,” he continued, man appointed or selected for this p should be pald a salary of not less than $100 a month. There was nothing startling brought out in the convention in the way of ideas about the care of the destitute, but every person who was in attendance will be benefited by the exchange of ideas and T am heartily in favor of holding these conventions " Bishop Spalding has been speakig at vari- ous cities in the country and will assist in the services of dedicating the Sacred Heart church Sunday. “I have found the church in the best of condition wherever I have been,” he said, “and have had a most en- joyable trip. There is no question of great importance before the church, so we are going along smoothly, just attending to our ordinary work." Bishop Spalding came in from Sioux City at 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon and was met at the station by Father Dolphin of St. Paul, Count John A. Crelghton, John Rush, T. C. Byrne and P. C. Heatey, who escorted him to the Episcopal residence at Thirty- sixth and Burt streets. The dedication of the mew church will be an important event in the history of the church of this city and the dedicatory services will be most impressive. At the morning service Rt. Rev. Richard Scannell, bishop of the dlocese of Omaha, will pre- slde, and Bishop Glennon of Kansae City will be the celebrant of the solemn pontifical high mass. The sermon will be delivered by Bishop Spalding. The evening service will begin at 8 o'clock, Bishop Scannell being the cele- brant, assisted by Bishop Spalding. Bishop @lennon will deliver the lecture. ISLANDS FLOAT IN THE SEA Captain Warnecke of the Norwegian Steamer Donald Tells a Re- markable Story. June 5.~The Norwegian with truit, NEW YORK, steamer Donald, from Banes, has arrived here. A Philadelphia special to the World says that Captain Warnecke told this remarkable tale: “We were two days out from Banes and about thirty miles from Wattlins island, in the Caribbean eea, when we came upon & floating island. ‘I, with the mate and sev- eral of the crew, rowed toward it. Thou- sands of little monkeys scampered all about the shore, and when we were in range they began a bombardment by shying cocoanuts at us. We captured two monkeys. “The following day we discovered another floating island and landed. This time we were greeted by a covey of parrots of most brilllant plumage.” Captaln Warnecke declared that the eruption in Martinique had shaken up the entire district and the small pleces of land had become separated from some unin- habited {slands.

DOUBTFUL RUMORS And Still Scores of Omaha Psople Accept Them as Facts, The published statement of some stranger residing in a fara’ place may be true enough, but it is generally accepted as & doubtful rumer. How can it be veri- fled. The testimony which follows is con- vincing proof because it comes from & resi- dent of Omaha. Mr. Thomas F. Norton, 2714 Twenty-fifth street, contractor, says: “For three years my wife was pot only subject to kidueé complaint, but she had other complications She doctored for her trouble, but the pain in her back and other symptoms of either weakened or over-excited kidneys clung to her. One box of Doan's Kidney Pills pro- cured at Kulin & Co.'s drug store, corner 15th and Douglas streets, did her so much good that I purchased two more. The treatment did her a world of good.
