After several dayH of hot and mil-
try weather , during which the weath
er did Its best to develop n thunder
and rainstorm It finally succeeded n
Its undertaking early this morning
and the rain poured down right en
ergetically for a few hours , tilling In
the supply that the lowering collars
and frog ponds have been losing. A
little molHturo to wet the surface of
the ground would prove beneficial ,
but more than enough hns now fnllon
for flint purpose and n return to the
wnrmth nnd Himshlno of the pnst few
days would not prove very acceptable.
The circus tlio other day somehow
gave the small boy that Fourth of
July inspiration that prompts him to
blow a nickel or two for dro crackers
or other nolso-mnklng dovlco tlint the
dealers are now placing on display ,
and for the succeeding days there
has been n popping of the squibs
about the city that will servo to re
mind the veterans of the tiring of
sentinels and the skirmishing of the
outpostH before the main engagement
which will take place during the
Fourth. The circus started the thing
going several days earlier In the sea-
sou than Is usual , but the small kid
mhy bo expected to maintain a more
or loss continuous performance un
til the grout holiday afrlvos.
The variety of estimates on the
sl/o of the crowd in the circus tent
here Tuesday afternoon Is n queer
proposition. One circus performer
n contortionist Informed Norfolk In
quirers that Iho tent sentod1,000 people
ple ; another stateil that Mfi.ond tick
ets were sold : the press agent gave
the number of spectators at the af
ternoon performance as 10,000. There
were said to be but 1,01 ! ) less In at
tendance hero at the afternoon per
formance than nt Omaha , nnd the
management wns pleased. I3d Ring-
ling wns with the circus here nnd the
manager , according to a performer ,
"llo's the man who says 'go. ' " rn-
marked the actor. "And if ho know
I were giving Inside Information , I'd
go tomorrow. Rlngllngs and Mr. Bai
ley own the show. They bought It
at auction last fall from Soils Broth
ers for ? K0,000 ! and have added $ I0.- !
000 to It. The show carries 700 to
SOO people all of the tlmo. Including
2.0 actors. There- are 2SOO reserved

yesterday.
JOLLIES VASSAR GIRLS.
Justice Brewer Tells Them That They
May Yet See a Woman President.
Poiighkeepsle , N. Y. , Juno 15. No
; longer shall the small boy of the land
nlouo bo patted on the head nnd told
that some day he may sit In the whlto
house. Girls , cheer up. one of you
may bo presldentess of the United
States. This Is no summer day fan-
tnsy , for your Uncle David hns snld
It , nnd Uncle David Is an nssoclnto
justice of the federal supreme court ,
which knows everything.
Vassar girls fairly wont Into ecstn-
sles yesterday. Justice Brewer de
llvered the Phi Beta Kappa address
In the new chapel nt the college , nnd
some of the things ho told the stu
dents brought on Indications that the
magistrate might bo Hobsonlzed if ho
continued.
"You ewe to your country the duty
of serving it .with nil the advantages
of your education , " said the justice ,
"for who shall say that within the
next decade general suffrage shall
not bo extended to women , as It hns
In many states : who shall say that
before a gray hair shall come to your
heads n woman like Queen Victoria
shall not sit In the white house to
glorify this nntion ns Victoria glori
fied England ? In this land wo have
no privileged class nnd no one comes
to its opportunities by Inheritance.
While I sny this , I want to follow it
up by saying that you nro n privileged
class , for you have had the privilege
of a collegiate education. You have
had the happiness of reveling In po
etry and prose. Do not glvo yourself
entirely to the enjoyment of lltora
ture , leaving the republic to take care
of Itself.
"If Immigration continues at Its
present rate the time will como when
the question of a woman president
will become acute. I do not wish to
say that this danger Is nt hand now
I say It is possible. "
THREE CITIES ARE NOW UNDER
CONSIDERATION.
NEGOTIATIONS NEARING FOCUS
Place Will Soon Be Announced and
Armistice Arranged Probabilities ,
That the Plenipotentiaries Will
Meet-In Washington ,
Washington , Juno 15. Gradually
the negotiations for peace In the tar
cast are Hearing a focus. . The ona
point to which the energies of those
directly concerned In them now nro
being directed IB the choice of n place
for the holding of the conference of
the plenipotentiaries of the belligerent
powers. It lu known officially that
tin(30 ( cities now are under consldcru-
tlon by RiiHsIn and Japan. Those
cltleu named in the order of the like *
llhooil of their final selection are
Washington , The Hague and Geneva.
Thus far no decision hns boon reached.
Purls and l/ondon have been eliminat
ed ftoin the equation. It Is under-
ntood that the Russian government ob
jects to an Asiatic city , its preference
being for some ISuropuan capital. Aft
er objecting lo the holding of the con
ference In Purls , the Japanese govern
ment expressed a willingness to con
sider places which afforded adequate
facilities , although It Is assumed that
Japan's preference would bo some far
eastern city , practically within the
theater of war. Finally , however , the
selection seems to have narrowed
down to the three cities named. Ob
jections have boon made by the Japa
nese to The Hague , but it Is not be
lieved that these objections are funda
mental or unalterable. However , as
the situation now Is , Washington ap
pears to bo the city most likely to bo
selected.
An announcement of the selection
of the place of holding the conference
is expected within n few days. Thus
far President Roosevelt has acted
merely as an Intermediary between
Russia nnd Jnpnn In the conduct of
the negotiations regarding the selec
tion of n place of conference. Ho Is
In no sense of the term an arbiter In
the matter nnd , nt this tlmo , there is" "
no probability that ho will bo the nr-
biter. It is expected that Russia and
Japan will bo able to reach an agree
ment without the assistance of an ar
biter. Should a deadlock ensue n
condition that Is regarded as quite un
likely It Is not Improbable tlint the
president may be requested by the
two powers to nnmo the place of con-
'orence.
After the selection of the place of
meeting of the plenipotentiaries , the
wo governments will nnmo those who
nro lo represent them nt the confer
ence. Then nn armistice between the
contending armies In the field will bo
arranged , nnd pending the nrrangc-
: nent of the peace conference , the
; rcat armies facing each other in Man
churia will Ho on their arms , waiting
the final signal from their govern
ments.
LITTLE PROBABILITY OF HITCH
Denied There Is Anything Untoward
In Russia's Reply.
St. Petersburg , Juno 15. Every
'orelqn minister and ambassador now
in St. Petersburg attended a recep
tion given by Foreign Minister Lams-
dorf. Several diplomats wno dis
played some unnecessary nervousness
over the concluding clause of the Rus
sian foreign office's communication to
the Gazette ( saying the Imperial gov
ernment has "no objection in princi
ple" to the meeting of plenipoten
tiaries proposed by President Roosevelt
velt "If the Japanese government ex
presses a desire therefor" ) wore reas
sured after talking with the foreign
minister and learning tlint the com
munication did not reproduce the ex
act text of the note.
The foreign ottlco Is In constant
communication with Count Casstnl ,
the ambassador at Washington , but
beyond the statement that nothing
has been arranged. It vouchsafes no
Information. The chances of the meet
ing taking place In the Un' I States ,
however , seem to have vanished. If
Paris should not bo acceptable to Ja
pan , Russia Is disposed to the selec
tion of The Hague.
It Is understood that the first task
of the plenipotentiaries will be the
conclusion of n limited armistice.
This must come soon In order to avoid
a general engagement , which reports
from the front indicate that Field Mar
shal Oynmn Is already launching.
Rainy Season In Manchuria.
London. June 15. The Japanese
correspondent of the Dally Telegraph
at Mojl , Japan , says : "The rainy sea

bo expected within a few days. '

ART FOR AMERICA.
A National Sulcm nnd Gallerlo *
Kcitptl For 10very tute.
Miss inna Komlosy , the Hungarian
flower painter , who cauie to Washing 1
ton some time ago under the jmtromup , ,
of the Austrian ambassador and Bd t
on ess Ilengelmuller and who returned
to Austria to bo with her royal pupil ,
the Archduchess Marie Thcrese , wns
much Impressed with art possibilities
of the national capital , says a Wash
ington dispatch to the Now York Trib
une. While In Washington she was en
thusiastic over what she called her
"big Idea , " and after her arrival in
Vienna she wrote of It to one of the
many friends she mndo hero nn fol
lows :
I have a biff Idea surh a bli ? Idta that
only the United States can hold It. It la
founded on different experiences In dif
ferent lands , and I will sketch It to you
In a. few words , which I hope you will bs
BO good us to approve. Rich peopl * from
every one of your forty-live statan must
put together some money oh. e. grtat
deal of money ! to form a capital that
must never bo touched. Then a perma
nent art building must be erected In beau
tiful Washington , and there must bo ex
hibitions evi'ry year.
Artl.its frqm all over the world must be
allowed to send one painting annually
free of duty. Each visitor on entering
the gallery will bo presented with a cata
logue free and will bu expected to check
off the forty-Pvc pointings that most
plcnso and icturn It at the door. Those
girty-flvc paintings having the greatest
number of approval checks will bo select
ed , one for each stnto.
By this method the pictures are select
ed by the public , and In the course of \ tl
time each state In the Union will own Its Hewn
own museum of art. The capital fund
will buy those forty-five paintings an
nually at a good pi Ice , but the bulk of
the money will not be paid to' the artists ,
but only the Interest of the amount ,
which will bo theirs for life. Say the urt-
1st Is a man. The widow will rccelvo the
Intetest. or his children , until they are
twent ; jcai" ? old , when the annuity will
cease and rt\ert to the capital fund.
That seems un Ideal scheme , but
whether It will ever be realized Is '
quite another story. Miss Komlosy's
father was n well known Hungarian
painter , and she has two brothers who
have attained distinction in tlio same
profession.
GATHERS EGGS IN AN AUTO
Delnwnre Dealer Tluix Hope * to
Avoid Lou * liy Breakage.
Hunting eggs in ail automobile Is a
new occupation for one Dover ( Del. )
farmer , lie is II. Uldgely Harrington ,
who recently took his first spin in an
autocar , says a Dover dispatch to the
Philadelphia Public Ledger. lie Is the
agent of several New York and Phila
delphia soda water dealers and big de
partment stores in the collection for
them of fresh eggs , the white egg be-
Jng ust'd altogether. In handling snch
large quantities ns 1'J.OOO dozens each
day Mr. Harrington usually experi
ences losses because fractious hones
will persist In either backing too h.ird ,
stopping too quickly or running off
with a wagon load of eggs. A tna-
chliie that w 111 le stopped by pneu
matic action , ho thinks , will facilitate
the egg hunting nnd egg handling busi
ness.
