CHAUTAUQUA VMS SUCCESSFUL OUE It Is Expected that Its Earnings Will About Equal Those Last Year. WEATHER WAS AGAINST IT
EX-GOVERNOR HOCH OF KAN8A8 POKE YESTERDAY AFTER- ' NOON. AND LAST EVENING MRS. LAKE WAS LECTURER. The eighth annual Chautauqua assembly In Glen Miller park came to a close Sunday and the assembly In every respect seems to have fulfilled to expectations of the association officers and regular attendants. Financially the affair was successful, although perhaps the net earnings will not be aa large as they were In 1909. The average attendance excepting the Sundays was 2.000 per day. On Sunday, August 28, and last Sunday the attendances were much larger. The crowd laat Sunday was kept down owing to the threatening weather conditions, but about 4.000 were present, which Is about 1.600 less people than heard "Billy" Sunday's lecture. Not Including the attendance yesterday the average dally attendance was larger this year than on the corresponding days of the 1909 assembly. Undoubtedly the Chautauqua will be held again next year. Opposition to the assembly being held In Glen Miller park la strong and probably another location will be aecured. The officials are looking at the proposition of purchasing the Hawkins place and con- ' verting it Into the regular place for future Chautauqua assemblies with a great deal of favor. The directors will hold a meeting soon at which the attendance and financial reports will be made. Ex-Governor E. Hoch, of Kansas delivered the Sunday afternoon lecture on the subject "Enforcement of the Kansas Laws." In the evening Leonora Lake apoke on the aubject. "The Divine Rights of Children." Both lecturers pleased Immensely. The programs also Included musical selections. The Sunday school and open air service on Sunday morning likewise drew a large crowd. SIX DRUNKS FINED Six drunks faced Mayor Zimmerman in police court this morning and received fines of $1 and costs each. Adam Ebllng, who waa arrested in a gutter on South Ninth street, dead to the world, claimed that he was walking acrosa South E street, when an automobile approached, blinding him.

Alfred R. Goslin, declared to be ' Premier Crook of Wall Street" some time ago, and a map of the railroad he is "exploiting" although now an exile in Paris. The scheme he is promoting is a railroad line from Behring Sea, Alaska, to Vancouver, a distance of 2,300 miles. The route includes the Muir glacier, a territory which Is ice bound many months of the year. The line, it is said, can be built for 120,000 a mile, but In the meantime no, right of way has been obtained from the Canadian government Goslin is considered a wonder at bonding enterprises that will not stand the test of the analytical glass. A BALKAIIWAR ENDS Both Moslem and Christian Albanians Have Surrendered Their Arms. STILL UNREST, HOWEVER (American News Service.) London, Sept. 2. A correspondent in Albania writes: The Moslem inhabitants of Scutari have surrendered their arms in large quantities, and the Christians apparently quite pleased at tbe discomforture of their Mohammadan fellowcountrymen have given up such as they possessed. The inhabitants of the village around Scutari, very many of whom are Christians, have also brought in their weapons. The future of the Christian mountain tribes is uncertain. There has heen some fighting in the Nikaj and Horturi districts, but the territory of mcst of the other tribes have not yet been entered. It is reported in Scutari that in Nikaj, an unfortunate episode, occurred. After a parley, about half the tribesmen consented to 'urrender their arms. Much against the wish of the Franciscan priest, who told the Turkish authorities that he could not be responsible for tbe safe keeping of the weapons, the surrendered rifles were stacked in tbe Christian church: When the troops withdrew, the mountaineers spurred on by the members of the tribes who had not surrendered, their arms, raided the church and retook the weapons. The soldiers returned and flogged the priest. The question of disarming certain of the Christian tribes is a difficult one, as they hold all the territory bordering upon the Montenegrin frontier, a line which for years has always been so ill-defined. If these border tribes there will do nothing to prevent the war-like Montenegrins from raiding Turkish territory; whilst, if, on the other hand, tliey be allowed to retain their arms, all the other tribes will naturally expect similar treatment It is to be hoped that no resistance will now be offered by the Christian tribesmen, who are unlikely at the present time to possess more than two days' ammunition. Had these warriors joined in opposing the government at the beginning of the insurrection the Turks would probably have had a difficult task, but the tribal system has proved fatal to any determined resistance. Although there is reason to suppose that at least the nominal subjugation of Northern Albania will soon be completed, if remains to be proved whether the Turks, who can certainly destroy, are also able to constructHE DIED SUDDENLY Isaac Allen Simcoke, aged 77, died Lsuddenly Monday morning at the home of his son. Frank Simcoke and wife, 207 South Third street The attending physician pronounced death to be due to cerebral hemorrhage, although there were several different concoc tions in his room which contained carbolic acid, and which lead to a report that the deceased was a suicide. Cor oner Bramkamp was acquainted with the facts and as there was no outward evidence of acid burns, "he decided it was not a coroner's case. Simcoke was in his room and about 10 o'clock his son heard him breathing heavily. , He found his father unconscious and he died at 11:45 o'clock. The funeral arrangements will be an - nounced later.
ATTEI1TI0II OF THE
VOTERSJS CALLED To Senator Burrow's Align ment with Aldrich at the Campaign's Close. PRIMARIES ON TUESDAY INSURGENCY HAS BEEN THE ISSUE DURING THE HOT CAM; PAIGN BURROWS MAKES CAM PAIGN IN HIS AUTO. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 5. Primary elections will be held by all parties in this state Tuesday. Members of the Legislature will be placed in nomination as well as county officers, and in many cities municipal tickets. Tbe candidates for Secretary of State and for all state offices, except Governor and Lieutenant Governor, will be nominated later at party conventions. The three candidates for Republican nomination for Governor are Lieutenant Governor Patrick H. Kelly, Charles E. S. Osborne, of Sault Ste. Marie, and Amos S. Musselman of Grand Rapids. For Lieutenant Governor the Republican candidates are L. N. Dickinson of Charlotte; N. C. Rice, of Benton Harbor, and John Q. Ross,' of Muskegon. United States Senator J. C. Burrows is opposed for renomination by Representative Charles E. Townsend of Jackson, on the ground that a younger man is needed, and that Senator Burrows has been too closely aligned with Senator Aldrich and with a faction whose influence is waning. Points to His Record. Senator Burrows has made a strenuous automobile campaign urging that a long record of genuine Republicanism - entitles him to re-election, and that the certainty of his obtaining tbe Chairmanship of the Senate Commit ! tee on Finance would give Michigan an influential position in the Senate that no new Senator could attain. In the Democratic, Prohibitionist and Socialist parties there are no contests. Lawrence T. Hemens, of Mason, is the only Democratic candidate for Governor. In the 12 congressional districts Representatives Denby, Hamilton, Smith, McLaughlin and Dodds have no opposition for renomination. In the Third, Seventh, Eighth and Twelfth, those opposing the renomination of the present Congressmen are upholding the banner of "insurgency." ln the Third District, however, both Representative Gardner and his apponent, J. M. C. Smith, of Charlotte, have declared themselves against the re-election of Cannon as speaker. Fights Along the Line. In the Seventh District, Mr. McMorran's opponent is Editor Louis t C. Crampton, of Lapeer; in the Eighth Mr. Fordney is opposed by Emery Towneend, of Saginaw, : and in the Twelfth H. O. Young's opponent is Angus W. Kerr,' of Laurium. In the Second District, both W. W. Wedemeyer, of Ann Arbor, and form er Congressman Henry C. Smith,, ol Adrian, are looked upon as "progress ive" Republicans. In the Fifth Rep resentative Diekema has denied the charge of his opponent, Mayor George E. Ellis of Grand Rapids, that he voted against free hides, and the battle has revolved about the tariff. In the Tenth both Representatives Loud and his opponent, Frank Buell, have declared themselves against the re-election of Speaker Cannon. A LIVE STOCK SHOW (American News Service. Portland, Ore., Sept 5. Portland's Fair and Live Stock Exhibition opened at the Country club grounds today and will continue through the week. The display of live stock is the best ever seen in the northwest. - A speed program and numerous other attractions are also to be provided during the week.
Papal State Secretary Wages Contest Against Own Country
(Amerlcan News Service.) Rome, Sept 5. Strange as it may seem the break between Spain and the Vatican presents the spectacle of a Papal secretary of state fighting his own country. It is not a part , that Cardinal Merry del Val would personally have chosen as, notwithstanding all sayings to the contrary, and notwithstading the many years that he has been absent from his native country, he Is a patriotic Spaniard, proud of his race and attached to the glories of his land. But as the Italians say, and as has been often been repeated in these days at the Vatican without any disrespect be was "drawn in by the horns", Indeed many believe that the present conflict might not have taken place or that it would have been less severe if a Spaniard had not been at the helm at the Vatican. Senor Canale jas thought he knew Merry del Val too well, and wished to give him a lesson, but his compatriot soon showed him that he had misjudged his man, and that although young and hampered by the ties of ecclesiastical life and rules, he was the most redoubtable opponent that the Spanish premier could have found. Strange as it may appear, the work and the anxiety of this ferce campaign do not seem totell much on the young secretary, who joining K Latin charm to British habits he was born and brought up v in r England does not allow the troubles and perplexities of the recent conflict to over
- PIRATES OF HONGKONG. They Are the Real Old Fashion Bloodthirsty Kind. There are pirates in Hongkong not the UMual kind that greet the gentle stranger witu an expansive smile and take what he has for worthless rubbish, nor yet the petty thieves that go by that name ou our own water fronts, but tbe real old fashioned, murderous kind, who count not the victims as they reckon the spoils. Of course they do not swagger in costume, as all real pirates should, or pry their trade in Hongkong's Immediate waters, but amoug the thousands of fishermen, stevedores and coal handlers that crowd tbe harbor's edge they mingle and gossip water front news, knowing well when a particularly rich cargo la due from the interior, l And In the purple twilight a Junk -darts out of one of the many estuaries far up the West or Pen rl river and swoops with tbe suddenness of a hawk on tbe heavily laden prize.

W. J. Aylward lu Harper's Magazine. 8uicid by Swallowing Gold. Suicide .v Kwallowiug gold is sometimes ucoinpUsutd in China. Tbe , following is an authoritative account, written by a very learned Chinese for the Westminster Gazette, of how this much contested form of suicide is accomplished: "lu swallowing gold It Is not loose gold leaf or gold dust that is swallowed, but a solid lump of gold, or even a gold ring, weighing about bait an ounce. Gold is uot at any time of a corrupting nature, but when n' tump of It Is swallowed and gets into the bowel It fails, ou account of Its intrinsic weight, to rise and surmount tbe convolutions of the bowels and tun therefore never complete its passage. After two or three days it therefore sinks through the bowel and destroys life without any suffering." ' An Unfortunate Response. The problem of too many churches in a given locality Is often a perplexing one. ; It Is said that the churches ' in a certain village, on opposite sides of the streets, were so close that when ' The congregation In one church -sang Will -There Be Any Stars In My Crown?" the congregation In tbe other church promptly resjonded.

By reason of his unfaltering faith in the Roman Catholic church and in the ultimate triumph of her cause it may be difficult for the. brilliant and cultured ecclesiastic to submit to diplomacy even when one of the high contracting parties is the Holy See must necessarily be made up of compromises, ' and that even the traditional loyalty ; and devotion of the Spanish nation to the Holy See feel the influence of thai modem spirit.
