TRIED. To KILL ILDA ORMB. .
The Famous ‘Song “’riter Implicates “a
Millionaire Boston Lawyer.”
London, Sept. 21.—Some excitement
and considerable comment have been
caused in musical circles by what ap-
pears to be an attempt to assassinate
Miss Ilda. OI‘me, the well known song
writer, author of “A Lesson In Kiss-
ing,” which Louise Beaudet has recently
made famous in the United States.
Miss Orme, who is said to be an Amer-
ican, although other reports have it that
she is of English birth, was, according
to the story told, entering her residence
at 1 o’clock on Saturday morning last
when 1a man came 'up to her and asked
for assistance. Miss Orme says she gave
him a shilling and that then, without a
WOrd of explanation, the man drew a
revolver and fired at her, the bullet
traversing her right breast and setting
(her blouse on fire.
Miss Ormé’s assailant fled and has
not been arrested. The wound inflicted
by the pistol shot is not a dangerous
one.
In an interview on the subject Miss
Orme says the man who fired at her
. was slim, dark and spoke with an
,American accent. When questioned as
to the motive for the seemingly mur-
derous assault, Miss Orme attributed it
to a continuance of alleged persecutions
to which she says she has been subject-
ed for ten years past at the hands of “a
millionaire Boston lawyer.”
Miss Orme was in New York some six
or seven. months ago and made her
headquarters at the Ditsons’ establish-
ment. She is described as being clever
and eccentric.
THE KAISER IN AUSTRIA.
He Is Cordially Received by the Emperor
and the People. ’
Budapest, Sept. 21. —The Emperor
William of Germany arrived here at 10
o’clock this morning. He was greeted
upon his arrival by Emperor Francis
Joseph and his ministers and the Aus-
trian archdukes.
The day was observed as a public
holiday, and thousands of people filled
the streets to welcome the impeiial vis-
itor.
The route to the castle, a distance of
six kilometers, was magnificiently deco—
rated and spanned by arches at fre-
quent intervals.
crowds lined the roadway and cheer-
ed the kaiser With great enthusiasm as
he passed along. The kaiser saluted the
colossal statue of Hungaria holding
aloft an olive branch, at which the crowd
cheered wildly.
A mass meeting of 30,000 workingmen
was held in the city today, and after the
speechmaking the vast crowd formed in
procession and marched through the
principal streets carrying flags, ban-
ners, etc. Placards bearing the inscrip-
tion, “No rights, no fatherland, ” and
demanding universal suffrage were
freely displayed.
The police made no attempt to inter-
fere with the meeting or the parade.
ENGLAND’S SILK GLOVE.
The United States Has Evidently Forgot-
ten the Iron Hand It Conceals.
London, Sept. 21.—The Globe today in
an editorial on the futility Of arbitration
with a power “which disregards alike
the legal prescriptions and ordinary
courtesies of civilized nations” says:
"Lord Salisbury has treated the Unit-
ed Stateswith a kindness it does not de-
serve, always wearing the silk glove,
until America has forgotten the exist-
ence of the iron hand beneath it.”
In conclusion The Globe remarks:
“The idea of our being afraid Of a
fourth rate power like the United States
could only have occurred to sufferers
from a severe attack of swell head.
America has lost all sense of propor-
tion and has forgotten she plays only
a minor role in the affairs of the world.
We hope our relations with America-
will hereafter be distinguished by a
firmer tone, ‘as the only way to avert
trouble is to make her plainly under—
stand that we are determined not to be
shouted out of our rights.”
To Build a Tin Plate, Mill.
Seattle, Wash, Sept. 21.—William
Price of McKeesport, Pa., is here rep—
resenting the heavily capitalized com-
pany of Pennsylvania which is to erect
and operate a steel plant at Port An-
geles. Mr. Price states that work will
commence within 60 days and be pushed
to completion. The prime object of the
large plant Which will be erected will
be the manufacture of tin plate. The
process will be started in a blast fur-
nace and ended with the shipment of
high class tin plates to their destina-
tion. The tin that will be used will be
imported from Tasmania and can be
laid down on the sound. for much less,
than in the eastern ma nufacturing towns
of the United States. Washington will
supply the different ores necessary to
produce the pig iron.
Anthrax Infected Hides.
Washington, Sept. 21.—Acting upon
the request of the secretary of agricul-
ture the treasury department has re-
quested the secretary of state to instruct
all Consular officers of the United States
to refuse authentication of invoices oi
hides of neat cattle from districts in
which anthrax exists. This request is
made in View of the fact that a number
of deaths of human beings and cattle
recently ocgurred at Falls Creek, Pa.,
in consequence of the manipulation of
hides in tanneries at that place.

John Prendergast, assistant pastor, at
the point of a revolver to keep his face

. RIOT AT LATTIMER.
Mob of Women Who Marched on the
Mines Dispersed by the Troops.
Hazleton, Pa., Sept. 21. —A raid at
Lattimer Roccurred shortly after 10
o’clock today. About 150 Italian women,
armed with clubs and stones, divided
into three companies and marched on
the mines. Signals were given the camp
by the sentries of the culm' bank sta—
tion and three companies of the Thir-
teenth' were sent over under Major
Whitney. The women outflanked the
soldiers by rounding another culm bank
and were within 20 feet of the'engine
house before the troops reached them.
Missiles were flying through the air and
the rabble ignored the command to re-
treat. The soldiers then lined up shoul-
der to shoulder and with guns present-
ed, pushed the crowd back until they
dispersed. Meanwhile an attack on the
company store was repelled in the same
manner.
John Tomaso, a Hungarian who threw
a heavy piece of iron to one of the wom-
en and told her to use it as a weapon,
was arrested.
A body of miners from Butler valley
came over to Lattimer to work this
morning, but were compelled to go back
by a band of strikers at the points of
revolvers.
Warrant Served on liartin.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 21.—The court
issued warrants today for the arrest of
Sheriff Martin and his deputies. The
information upon which the warrants
were issued was made by County De—
tective Eckert. The defendants will
have to appear in court tomorrow after-
noon for a hearing.
The warrant was served on Sheriff
Martin this afternoon. He declined to
make any comment. It is expected to
haVe at least 30 of the deputies in court
tomorrow afternoon. Great efforts were
made to keep the action of the court
quiet. It is feared if the report gets
abroad that a warrant is out for the
deputies many of them, especially those
who have the means, will leave the
state.
ARMOR PLATE STEEL.
Government Officials Investigating a New
Method of Manufacture.
Reading, Pa... Sept. 21.—Several gov—.
ernment Officials were in this city last
week in consultation with J. H. Car-
penter, the steel projectile manufac—
turer, whose proposition to make armor
plate for $100 a ton is now before the
armor board. By his new methods he
claims to have eliminated a serious dif-
ficulty which all have to contend with——
that is, the acid reactions in the molten
metal, which have prevented steel
from being used with more confidence,
and saving in enormous wastage of
castings which could not be used be-
cause they were unsound and full of
blon holes.
A plant is now being erected at Cramp
& Sons’ shipyards, Philadelphia, under
Mr. Carpenter’s supervision. which will
soon be ready for the making of cast—
ings and the carrying on of any further
experimental work which he may desire
to enter, into. The present method of
making steel for armor plate is by what
is well known as the-open hearth proc-
ess, and it takes from eight to ten hours
to convert iron mixed with steel scrap
into steel, while by the new process the
same amount of steel is made in less
than an hour and without the difficul—
ties of casting incident to the open
hearth method.
New York’s Gold Fever.
Albany, Sept. 21.—The gold fever in
Saratoga. county is still at white heat.
Five claims were filed with the secre-
tary of state today for discoveries of
gold in the town of Greenfield by Fred-
erick H. Ebert, Henry G. Brain, John
Brain, Henry Lesselman and Timothy
Har11ngton.
I'IHES THAT LEAK.
The Morgan & Wright single-tube,
quick-repair tire must be regarded as
a distinct improvement in bicycle tire
construction. It has the following ad-
vantages:
While punctures in it can be re-
paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in-
jections, as well as in any othei
single-tube tire, it can be permanent!)
repaired by using the quick-repaii
strip inside the tire. See cut No. 1

strip inside' 13 picked up by the cement,
thus closing the puncture, as in out
No. 3. .
The Morgan 8: Wright single-tube
quick-repair tire is guaranteed not
porous. This is on account of the Way
in which it is made. Nearly every
{rider has heard of tires that “leak
like a. sieve.”
Many tires rot, because water gets
,into the fabric between the two layers
of rubber. The Morgan & Wright
fabric is proof against moisture. .

IMorgan & Wright tires are, and yet
how seldom they puncture. This is
due to the fabric.
Ask any bicycle dealer whether.
other tires last as long as Morgan &
Wright tires. Ask. also, what the
Morgan & Wright guarantee means!
Morgan & Wright tires are repaired
free of charge, at the factory in
Chicago or at any of the Morgan &
Wright free repair shops, located in
the principal cities.
N. B.—-When you havea punctur,
get right off. Riding a tire flat, when
it has a tack or nail iii it, may
