MID DOOMING OF CANNON PRESIDENTS CLASP HANDS. EL PASO HAS 0 E BIG DAY Notable Banquet In Old Mexican City at Which Maximilian Silver Service Was Used. Kl Paso, Tex., Special : With cannon roaring a sequence of sulutes, with soldiers every where and a pomp of ceremony seldom If ever b-'foro witnessed In tlds country, l'rusideitt Taft of the United States, and Porforlo Diaz, who for years has ruled ovor tho destinies of Mexico an president of that grent southern republic, met hero Saturday and exchanged formal greetings of good will and friendship. Just as President Taft and his purty wero stoppln from tho special train and while the ehoers of welcome wero still ringing, Noll Morgan, a fourteen-year-old school boy, said to bo part Mexican, stabb d an American school mate. Lawrence Winiber. to death. To j add to the dramatic significance of tho incident, it was learned that the quarrel was due to a dispute over the possession of an American Hag. The president of Mexico began his ride shortly before noon to the place where President Taft awaited him. It is noteworthy that on this occasion automobiles were strictly tabooed and magnificent carriages were drawn by gaily caparisoned horses substituted. A strong detail of Mexican troops had escorted Diaz to the Mexican border, but there they fell behind and remained in their own territory until the return of their president. Then came tho triumphal procossion of Taft into Mexican territory at 12 o'clock. Taft received a hearty reception as he rode through 121 Paso. Kveu at tho border he was welcomed by the personal representative of President Diaz, and he thereupon descended from his carriage and proceeded, accompanied by his own aide and the personal representative of the Mexican president, and surrounded by a Mexican escort, to the placo whore President Diaz awaited him. The president left his military staff on the American side. The same praises of greeting wero exchanged, the same introductions made and champagne and sandwiches passed around as on the American side, after which Taft, who received an ovation all along the line In Juarez, returned to El Pnao. The crowning event of tho affair came at night whon President Diaz tendered a banquet to President Taft over In Juarez. All the decorations for the banquet, with the furniture, nlatee. Klasswnre and table service generally, wore brought from Mexico City. Tho service plate was of gold and is one of the reminders of the illfated Maximilian, once emperor of Moxlro. But two toasts were drunk at this banquet, ono to the President of the United States and the other to tho President of Mexico. There was a marked contrast between the two men, nevertheless. Diaz, nenring his eightieth year, but with vigor in his manner and lire in his oyc, was attired in the glittering uniform of a Mexican general olllcor, while Tnft. tall and stalwart, wore the simple American frock coat. MINUS PADS AND "RATS" Clerks in Big Chicago Store Must Appear, or Censor Will Get 'Em. Chicago. III., Special: Exaggeration in dress and coiffure by women employed has been tabooed by a big Chicago department store. 1 he management has adapted a s.. at em of dress censorship which, although it has aroused the united protest of the more frholous In the army of female help employed, has been highly effective, and from the utilitarian standpoint is a groat improvement over the former state of affairs. Sinq llcity is tho keynote of the orders issued to the girls and now Instead of paint and powder, hair puffs and bows, dangling Jewelry and enormous bracelets and fluffy lingerie, the saleswomen appear neatly attired In a black or white shirtwaist, black skirt, hair done neatly without artificial adornment and minus padding and other exaggerations of the fashions. A woman censor ha3 been appointed. GIRLS SWING $1CO,0C0 DEAL. Bookkeeper and Laundry Employe Start with Cheap Ranch. Denver.

CIGARETTE HONOR TO WOMAN,
American Wins Two Prizes at Smoking Contest Promoted By Society. London, Cnble: A cigarette smoking contest was promoted for society women by a royal duke recently. Tho prizes were two richly jeweled cigarette holders, one for blowing smoke rings ami tho other for consuming a cigarette In tho fewest whiffs without taking the cigarette from between tho Hps. Hoth prlzeB were won by si iiopular American boauty moving In tho highest circles, and tho dainty dexterity with which she produced series after series of smoke rings reached tho limit of the cigarette smokers' art. An English countess was among tho contestants, but her feats in honor of Lady Nicotine wero hardly worthy of remark. Washington Gets Bogus Coin. Washington, Special: Counterfeiters, working almost In tho shadow of the treasury, have Invaded certain illstricts of Washington with spurious coin. The counterfeits are of tho twenty-five and ten-cunt coinage, pat- j tcrnod after the issue of 190S, but ac- j cording to tho secret service oper- i atlves are poor imitations. fi li MOB HOOTS KING ALFONSO AS MURDERER. ECHO OF FERRER EXECUTION Cries Raised Against Edward While Police Battle With Spark of Revolution. London, Cable: The red Hag was raised in ixmdon Sunday afternoon and a large mob moved upon the Spanish Embassy to make a demonstration of its disapproval of the oxecutlon of Prof. Francisco Ferrer, the convicted Revolutionist, at Barcelona a few days ago. Several bodies of police were stationed at tho approaches to the embassy and drove off the crowds In their usual bloodless, effective way. Considerable excitement and uneasiness pervaded the neighborhood. The groans and hootlngs were plainly heard in the embassy and at Buckingham Palace near by. The trouble began with a mass meeting In Trafalgar Square, which was organized by several Socialist and Labor bodies. Several hundred of tho members of these organizations marched to the square carrying red Hags draped with crepe and bearing inscriptions denouncing King Alfonso. A black-bordered lipnuer was raised against the Nelson column with big letters that could be rend from afar: "To hell with the murderer Alfonso." After J. F. Groen. secretary of the "Friends of Russian Freedom," had called the meeting to order, he read a telegram from the Countess of Warwick, saying: "No words are too strong to express Europe's horror at the murder of Ferrer." Several laborlte members of Parliament delivered strong orations. Victor Grayson of Manchester, the Socialist member, capped the climax by declaring that if the head of every king of Europe was torn from his body It would not pay -half tho price of Ferrer's life. Ho called the Russian Emperor "a dirty monster," and said that King Kdwnrd, who could have prevented tho execution, was responsible for whatever might happen In England as a result of It. He demanded tho expulsion of the Spanish ambassador. The Socialist Societies, carrying their banners, then marched in good order to tho Spanish Embassy singing revolutionary songs and hooting King Alfonso. A great rabble accompanied them, filling the streets. It was dark when they reached the open square in front of the embassy, and they found that tho square was filled with platoons of police. Tho embnssy windows were dark and there was no sign of life there. The police would not let the procession enter the square or even stop. The crowds were turned hack and kept moving up Victoria street toward the Parliament buildings, singing, shouting and groaning. HANLY FOR SUFFRAGETTES. Declares Women's Votes Would Settle Prohibition Question. Worcester, Mass., Special: J. Frank Hanly. former Governor of Indiana, Is an out-and-out advocate of woman's suffrage. This was brought out In an Interview prior to his delivering an address before tho Economic Club. The former governor believes that the suffrage movement would be a good ono to bring about prohibition. "I believe women should have a vote," he said. "They are as much concerned In tho liquor question as men. In my state C5 per cent of the population Is rural. In the rural sections the women who lend simple lives would vote agnlnst the saloon. "In the cities, whero women use liquor, they would not vote against Its sale. On this vital question It would depend on the character of the women like the men. "Yes, they should be given a vote, and they would vote right on tho liquor question." John D. Gives Good Advice. Cleveland. Ohio, Special: John D. Rockefeller's advice to boys of the Euclid Avenue Sunday School Sunday was "Save your money; don't squander it. What will you do with that Money? Take my advice and first pay your parents n part of your earnings as board. Aa to tho remainder, use your own Judgment In handling- that. There nro many nice things that you may want to buy. If they are necessary, buy them; but do not squander your money save it," said Mr. Rockefeller.

TRAGIC DEATH OF BUCHANAN, THE NOTED DIPLOMAT. STROKE OF APP0PLEXY THE CAUSE Eventful Career of Man Who Rendered , Great Services to Our Government. London. Cable: William L. Buch anan, of lluffalo, N. Y., former American Minister to tho Argentlno Republic ami Panama, who had been closely identified with several important American diplomatic missions, met a tragic death on a Ixmdou street. Iio was discovered lying on a aldowalk In Park Lnno, near the American Embassy, in a dying condition, a few mlnutos before 12 o'clock, and was carried to St. George's Hospital, a short distance away. Life was ox Und whon the ambulanco reached the hospital. Physicians who examined tho body state that death apparently was due to heart disease or apoplexy, and thai there was no Indication whatever of foul play, which was suggested in certain quarters. William L. Huchanan was born in Covington, O., Sept. 10, 1S53. He went to Iowa City, Ja., when 24 years old, where he entored business as a mer chant.

Incident- j ally he negotiated a reciprocity tronty between Argentina and America ihat gave great promise of mutual benefit to the business interests of tho two countries, but this treaty failed of ratification by tho United States Senate. One of his most Important achievements whllo in Buenos Aires was his settlement of a boundary dispute between Argentina and Chill which threatened to Involve tho two countries in war. Although a Democrat, Mr. niicli.ina n was retained at his post for several years after the retirement of President Cleveland. Mr. Huclmnnn, as director general, successfully managed the Buffalo PanAmerican Exposition. Scarcely had he finished his service as a delegate to the second Pan-American conference in tho City of Mexico, 1 In 1902, before ho was drafted again I into the diplomatic service to become the first United States Minister to Panama. Voluntarily relinquishing that pot when his work was done. Mr. Huchanan went to South America and later to Europe ns representative of large business concerns. Hut soon another call came from tho State Department and he went first to the Rio conference and then to Venezuela. American concessions and diplomatic business generally wore In bad shape In that country and Mr. Huchanan succeeded In arranging for a private settlement of four of the five grent American claims against Venezuela and for tho reference to the Hague tribunal of the fifth.
