IS THE OLDEST NUN.
Slater Generose, oi'the Loretflne
Order. Took the Veil Seventy-
Flve Year. Ago.
Sister Generose, a ‘member of the
Lorettine order, of Bardstown, Ky., en-
joys the distinction of being the old-
est nun in America. She is now 95
years old and took the veil at the age
pf 20, 75 years ago. She is now an in-
.mate of the Loretto infirmary in Marion
county, Ky. Sister Generose was born
in Kentucky in June, 1804. Her par-
ents, Basil Mattingly and Monica Miles,
were from Maryland. She is related to
many of Kentucky’s representative
families—the Lancasters,

Mileses, Smiths and Monarchs. She is
also connected with the Spaldings, two
of her sisters having married brothers
of the present bishop of Peoria, 111.,
John Lancaster Spalding. She has two
other cousins in the priesthood, Rev.
Thomas Miles, S. J., of St. Louis, and
’Rev. David Russell, chaplain of Naz-
areth; also about 40 cousins, living and
dead, who are members of the Loretto
society. The late Sylvester Johnson,
of New Haven, and E. L. Miles, of New
Hope, both well known for their great
wealth, were cousins to Sister Gen-
erose.
She recently celebrated her diamond
jubilee, something that has never be-
. fore occurred in the United States. In
honor of this occasion high pontifical
mass was celebrated by the pope’s pre-
late, Archbishop Martinelli, who came
to Kentucky to assist at the golden
jubilee held by the’ l‘rappist monks at
the abbey of Gethsemane. Besides the
archbishop other dignitaries in the
church were in attendance, among
.them her kinsman, Bishop John Lan-
caster Spalding, of Peoria, 111.; Rt. Rev.
E. T. Prendergast, D. D., auxiliary bish-
op of Philadelphia; Rev. J. J. Dougher-
ty, of New York city, and all the prom-
several from Tennessee.
THE CHINESE WALL.
Great \Vork of Solid Masonry That
W'onld Reach from New York

If Frank C. Lewis, of Chicago, is go-
ing to tear down the great wall of
China and use the material for paving
stone he has a big contract on hand.
The main or outer wa all was built 200
years beforeChris-‘e and runs from the
sea along the northern boundary of
China for a distance of 1,500 miles. The
inner wall branches off from the outer

in circumference.

with huge bricks. It is from 15 to 30
feet in height and from 15 to 25 feet in
width. The inner wall is almost twice
the height and is almost the same width.
Along the top of the inner wall runs for
its entire length a promenade 15 feet
wide. The engineering difficulties over-
come and the great amount of .labor
spent in building the walls may be gath-
ered from the fact that they run up the
side of mountains, across rivers, and
everywhere lollOw the boundary of the
ancient empire. Even to this day the
savage Mongol tribes regard the great
wall as the limit of their pastures. The
two walls together, if stretched out in
a straight line, would reach from New
York to Las Vegas. so that if they had
[been in place Gov. Roosevelt might
have ridden his bronco all the distance
from home to the rough riders’ reunion
without dismounting. Broken up into
paving stones the two walls would cover
a road bed 100 feet wide and reaching
from New York to San Francisco.

The aim-in Center Shifts—Military .In
Full Control.
CLEVELAND, July,27.——The storm
center of the street rail“ ay strike has,
acc01ding to the authorities, settled in
Brooklyn, a suburb connected with
Cleveland by a long high bridge. At
noon yesterday 150 employees of the
Born Steel Range company blockaded a
car on the bridge and dragged the mo-
torman and conductor from their posts,
inflicting with their lists and other weap-
ons injuries more painful than serious.
Soldiers on guard at the barn about half
a mile away hurried to the scene, but
the 1'iote1s had taken refuge in the fac-
tory. which stands under the apploach to
the bridge. The factory was surround-
ed and the premises sea1',ched but there
was no clew by which the guilty ones
could be picked out, so they bent their
efforts to assisting the blood stained mo-
torman and conductor to move the car,
most ,of the windows of which had been
broken by stones. .
General Axline, in command of the
troops here, in order to personally view
the situation, took a ride on an Orange
street car. He was in civilian dress, and
the car was stoned at various intervals
all along the route. A rock came near
hitting him. The general took other trips
through the troubled districts, but de-
clined to give his views of the situation.
The vigilance of the guards, while day-
light aided them, prevented trouble of a
serious natu1e. Preparations for mass
meetings at various points were made
during the day. In pr'epa1ation for a
mass meeting a platform was erected in
Brooklvn to protest against the action

DUI“! RULE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Otis Has Full Authority to Establish
Provisional Governnlents.
\VASHINGTON, July 27.——lt is stated
at the war department that General Otis
has made no communications to the dc-
partmcnt regarding the organization of
any provisional government in the islands
01' provinces, but it is presumed that he
may be doing so if conditions warrant.
lcncral Otis is acting under instruc-
tions from the president dated Dec. 21,
1808. These instructions said that the
destruction of the Spanish flcct, followed
by the reduction of Manila, practically
effected the conquest of the Philippine
islands and suspension of Spanish sov-
ereignty. They directed that the military
government of the United States main-
tained in Manila be extended with all
possible dispatch to the whole of the cod.
ed district to the United States by the
t1'c::i;."of peace. The military -'~u111.‘111d-
or was directed to announm that ‘wc
come not as invaders 01 conque: ”013, but
as friends."
ll‘hosc who submitted were to be prom-
ised support and pI'otcCi’lorI. “All othsi's
will be brought within, the lawful rule we
have assumed, with firmness if need be.
but without severity as far as may be
possible.” Suggestions were made as to
the government of the coded territory
and the rights of property. taxes. etc.
This letter of the president, together with
the instructions of Secretary Hay to 1310
Philippine commission, are the basis of
governments which are to be established
in the Philippines.

Closing ‘Vork of Peace conTei-ence.
THE HAGUE, July 27. —The drafting
committee of the international peace con-
ference l-as decided upon the form of a
convention on the laws and customsof
war and the adaptation of the Geneva
convention to naval warfare, as well as
a formula for accession to the arbitration
scheme by nonsignatory powers. It is
hoped that the convent1ons will be fully
signed by Saturday. Sir Julian Paunce—
fote, head of the British delegation, hav-
ing demanded that the non‘signatory pow-
ers be entitled to adhere to the arbitra-
tion convention' only by the unanimous-
cousent .of the signatory powers, Count
Nigra, chief of the Italian delegation,
proposed an amendment permitting such
adhesion if no power opposes. It is
hoped that the British foreign office will
accept the amendment. ’
Grasshoppers In Mississippi.
WASHINGTON, July 27.—Mr. J. S.
Hines of the entomolozical bureau of
the agricultural department has returned
from an inspection of the section of the
state of Mississippi which has been suf-
fering from the grasshopper pest recent-
ly. He found that the grasshoppers
were largely confined to Bolivar county
and that, while they had done great dam-
age there to you 111g crops, they were of
the nonmigratory species known as dif7
ferentials and thexefore were not liable
to prove dangerous to owr communities.
The greatest damage ' s so far been
done on the-Dahomey plantation, where
300 acres of cotton in one patch was
totally destrOyed and 2,000 acres in an-
.other greatly damaged.

concerns here are expected to make a
similar increase.
ELECTlON 0'1: ' SENATORS.
Senator Stewart's Plan For Prevent-
ing Deadlocks.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-Senato1'
Stewart of Nevada said yesterday in
order to obviate the apparent necessity
for an amendment to the constitution to
insure at all times a full icpresentation
of states in the United States senate at
the next session of congress he would
offer relief by legislation which, the se
ator says, may prove satisfactory e
proposes that the following palagraph
be added at the end of section 15. title 2,
chapter 1, of the revised statutes: “If on
the third Tuesday after the organization
'of the legislature no person has received
such majority, then on that day or on any
succeeding. day the person receiving a
plurali tgnof the votes cast, a majority of
all the embeis elected to both houses
being present and voting, shall be de-
clared elected.”
This, he believes, will meet the necessi-
ties of the case and insure the election
of a United States senator in every state
at the time specified by law.
"The Navy Yard Fire.
WASHINGTON, Jul 27. —Secretary
Long has received the re rt of the board
wh' ch inquired into the recent fire at the
Brooklyn navy yard. It shows a loss on
stock of $200, 000, which- is $100, 000 less
than the first estimate, and $15,000 on .
buildings. The board was unable to lo-
cate the cause of the fire. In making re-
pairs the department intends that all
construction shall be fireproof.
