Aguilar came upen the Indians without notice and both parties were taken completely by surprise. Although the Mexicans out- numbered them, the Indians gave bat- tle, but five of their number were shot down and many wounded. They at-| pted to flee, but only those who got the pack horses escaped, the ce being taken prisoners.

DOPE SEEKING ANCIENT COPE His Holiness Will Try to Recover Old Relic in the! Possession of J. P. Morgan LONDON, July 18.—It is stated in a special dispatch from Rome that the Pope has commissioned Cardinal Van- nutelli, who is about to visit Ireland, to try to obtain from J. Pierpont Mor- gan the priceless ancient cope which was stolen in 1802 from the cathedral of Ascoli. The cope mysteriously dis- appeared while repairs were being made to the cathedral and though the Government took measures for its re- very they were unsuccessful. It now transpires that the cope was sold to Morgan, who has lcaned it to the South Kensington Museum, where it is at present on view. The cope is a beautifully embroidered piece of work, done in France in the thirteenth century. It was presented to the As- coli Cathedral by Nicholas IV. The entire ground is of gold thread on which are “ worked fifteen exquisite panels of religious subjects. The mu- seum authorities believe that the cope of English, not of French, work- manship. e is ———— | CHEMIST FINDS NO ARSENIC CITY IN soup Ah Sow, Arrested on Charge of At- tempting 2 to Poison Her Hus- band, Is Released.

Just before the woman's arrest the | police had been informed that two physicians had examined the soup and k discovered d enough arsenic in it to kill 100 men. The woman has steadfastly denied putting any arsenic in the soup. A suspicious circum- stance was the fact that no one would come forward and swear to a com- plaint. Fong Ling was one the tong presidents indicted for conspiring to kill Tom Yick of the Chinese Edu- cational Society and he turned State's evidence against two of the other presidents at their trials in Judge Lawlor's court.

HARMONY IN TIOWA., Expected Clash Between the Factions Does Not Occur. IOWA CITY, Iowa, July 19.—Har- | mony was the' keynote of the Iowa State Democratic Convention to-day. The prospective bitter fight to a finish between the anti-Hearst and Hearst Democrats did not develop and the| two factions vied with each other in | nominating and seconding the nomina- tion of car s of opposite political affiliations. The effort to humiliate National Committeeman C. A. Walsh, who is also member of the State nmit- tee, by limiting his vote in the lat- ter body to tters not subject to con test was not successful; it was de- | feated in the resolutions committee by a vote of 6 to Apart from the defeat of the Walsh matter the anit-Hearsis were in abso- lute control and they now govern the machinery of the party Iowa. in The following ticket was named and m is cleverly shades of ge—W.

CINCINNATI, July 19.—An unknown woman was attacked by a maddened bear in charge of the Huntington (W. Va.) Elks, on Central avenue here to- day. Before the animal could be re- captured it had torn the garments of the woman into shreds, partially dis- robing her. There were two bears with the party that came on a special train from Hin- ton, Charleston and Huntington, W. Va. The animal which caused the mis- chief was in charge of George Garred, trustee of the Huntington lodge. It is sald that on the way to Cincinnati the animals were treated to beer, which | caused them to become wild. The | crowds at the depot and the heat | helped to make their condition worse. ‘While on the way to the Grand Hotel, the bear iIn charge of Garred broke loose and attacked a woman who was standing on the curbstone watghing the incoming visitors. The animal clawed at her dress and soon had the silken folds in shreds. She saved her face from being disfigured by dodging. Elks surrounded the bear and tore it from its intended victim. Meanwhile the other bear, in charge of an Elk from Hinton, also broke loose, tore through the crowd and ran for several squares before it was cap- tured. EXALTED RULER ELECTED.
