PARIS, May 1. King Edward arrived
this afternoon and tu accorded a hearty
reception by republican France. Ha was
met at the station by President Loubet,
and taff, and driven through tha Boii da
Boulogne, and tha Champa Elysaee. Every
where the populace gave him an enthu
siastic greeting.
King Edward ihwed the keeneat appre
ciation of the good will. Only acattered
shouts of "Fashoda" and "Kruger" were
heard and they were loat In the tremendoua
volume of approval. Vast erowda filled the
boulevard from early morning awaiting the
royal procesalon, and every minute law
accessions to the ranks. On the square
facing the railroad atatlon was a surging
maas of humanity with a regiment of the
First Culrraaslers keeping It back.
The front of the atatlon waa decorated
with crimson and gold hangings and the
Interior transferred Into a auperb recep
tion room hung with gobelin tapestry and
decorated with flowers and planla. On' the
balcony waa atatloned the band of the
Republican guard.
Ministers Attend Loabet.
Fresldent Loubet was surrounded by the
cabinet ministers, the presidents of the
senate and the chamber of deputies, the
grand commander of the legion of honor,
the military and naval dignitaries and the
dlplomatlo corps. As the train entered the
station the trumpets sounded a royal sa
lute and the band played "Ood Save the
King."
King Edward descended from his car and
advanced slowly and alone, smiling and
saluting. He wore the scarlet uniform of
British Held marshal his obapeau topped
by waving red and white plumes and his
breast adorned with various Insignia, In
cluding the cross of the legion of honor.
President Loubet stepped forward and
grasped the king's, bands. The meeting
between the sovereign and the president
was cordial, nay almoat demonstrative. M.
Loubet welcomed the king to France and
In return he expressed his thanks for the
splendid manifestation In his honor.
King Edward and the members of his
party entered state carriages, with gor
geously olad postillions and. outriders and
escorted by a regiment of coJLrasalers, drove
to the British embassy. The route was
through the beautiful Bols de Boulogne,
and Champa Elyssee, arched with chestnut
trees in full bloom. The lowering clouds
which marked the earlier part of the day
had broken up and the sun came forth. The
avenues were lined with solid ranks of
dragoona, cuirassiers, horse artillery, field
batteries and Infantry, guna, helmets and
other trappings gleaming In the sunlight.
. Behind theae ' martial Walls the people
were 'banked and all. the trees. . windows
and balconies and house, tops were crowded
with spectators. It waa eatlmated that
600,000 people gathered along the line.
At the Aro de Trlomphe the scene was
majestic, long, shimmering lines of soldiery
and a forest of waving banners, with blar
ing ogles and rolling drums and succeed
ing bands taking up "God Save the Klng.T
Halers Cosutlnnauslr Acclaimed.
Toe president and the ting were continu
ously acclaimed as they passed along tha
line. Among the populaoe occasionally die
eordant shouts war heard, but the prevail
ing sentiment was strongly - friendly. ,
King Edward alighted at tha British em
bassy on the Rue Du Fauhorg St. Honore,
where apartments had been prepared for
him. Including a throne room, furnished
from the art treasures of the Borgheee pal
ace, while from the roof above floated the
royal atandard of Great Britain.
After a brief rest he proceeded, with an
escort, to the Elyasee palace, where he was
received by the president. They remained
togther alone for some time.
Psris today was given up to elaborate
fsatlvities, the government encouraging
fates almllar to thoae of July 14. The
boulevards were ablaie with color, floral
arches and artistic derloes sym be Ileal of
royalty. Many American flags were dls
played and the United States consulate waa
gay with bunting. Street amusements and
dancing ware proceeding everywhere and
the cafes teemed with merrymakers.
Tonight the city presented a falry-llke
spectacle. The facade of the opera house
was aglow with a myriad of lights, the
Column Vendome was crowned with light
and along the boulevards arches supported
flaming crowns and other devloea welcom
lng King Edward.
President Loubet called at the British
embassy at S and eacorted tha king through
the Illuminated streets to the. Theater
Francalae, to witness the production of
"L'Autre Danger." The entire theater was
occupied by Invited guests of the govern
ment and the audience was made up of the
foremost men and women of France. On
arriving at the theater King Edward pauaed
In the foyer to chat with Prince Murat and
other old frlenda. Tha audience roae to Ita
feet aa the king and president entered the
box on the right of the proscenium. King
Edward wore evening dress and seemed
keenly to enjoy the performance.
IMMUNE TO BEE POISON
Apiarists Gat Sa They Doat Mian
Betas; Stanar Familiarity De
gets Indifference.
That a person who has been often stung
by beea becomes In time Immune to the
poison of the sting Is asserted by Dr. H. P.
Parker. He reports that when he first
began te keep bees he was frequently
stung, and that each sting was attended
with acute pain; but that aa time went on
the pain and awelllng became less. In the
following year. While transferring a hive of
bees, he had an experience which he thus
relates:
"Sting followed sting In succession. In
u s ua a, vr i w w im ss lagosa aia si wvwaaiwu. au
legs. arms, fingers, neck and face. I Imag-
ined what a picture I would present -
closed eyes and swollen hands and feet. I
worked on, and so did the beea. I could
feel the needle-like thrust, but then It did
not seem to pain as much, and at last I
finished the task. With aching head,
slight nausea and vertigo slowly coming
on I left my task with a sigh of relief for
what was accomplished and filled with
wonderment aa to what my personal ap
pearance would be.
"Imagine my astonishment to find merely
slightly raised red spots, like little pim
ples, with tbs red sting In the center, as
the result of each and every sting. I must
have had something like forty of them on
various parts of my body. My clothes
were full of them; but. they being so
thick, did not allow the sting to penetrate.
The dlzilucss, nausea and headache left me
and 'Richard was himself again.'
"When I sgaln visited my bees I did not
dread the stinging properties any longer, at
leat, not as much so as formsrly. and
then, and ever since. I have found that
when a bee does sting me ths pain Is only
sharp for an Instant and there Is an ab
amce of the after-swelling.
"1 hava since beea stung, many more
tlmea than I was at that time, and yet
none of the symptoma above referred to
have been reproduced. Am I not, there
fore, immune of the poison of the honey
bee, at leant to a certain extent?
"All authorities on bee culture state the
fact, as crumb of comfort to novices In
beekeeping, that the poison of a bee will
produce leas and less effect upon thplr
systems. 'Old beekeepers,' It Is said, 'like
Iflthrldatea, appear almoat to thrive on
the polaon itself.' Hulsh speaks of 'seeing
the bald head of Bonner, a celebrated prac
tical apiarist, covered with stings, which
seemed to produce upon htm no unpleasant
effect.' Rev. Mr. Klelne advises begin
ners to allow themselves to be stung fre
quently, assuring them .hat 'In two sea
aons their systems will become accustomed
to the poison.'
"In conclusion, let me stats that I firmly
believe that the beekeeper become Inoe
ulatd 'with the poison of the bee, and
usually becomes proof, or at least Immune,
against it. Is no more to be doubted than
the fact that vaccination Is a preventive
against smallpox." Indianapolis Journal.
DIPLOMATS AT FAIR
(Continued from First Page.)
by the Orinoco river, the life of Robinson
Crusoe. Unknown to Europe, far from any
neighbor, by the shade of the pathless
forest, they tried their best; they died,
many of them obscurely, leaving no name
to be engraved on the bronze tablet of
history, but leaving better than a mere
name, families, many of which still subsist;
better than families, examples of earnest
ness and endurance, creating a tradition
which will never die out. "Rlen ne ae
perd."
Slavery Evil Foreseen.
V
The question of labor was one of promi
nent difficulty and importance. Should it
be the hired labor of freemen or the com
pulsory labor of tho Imported negro? On
this, one of thoae early French explorers,
Charlevoix, summed up his opinion in the
following memorable sentence: "Hired serv
ants should be preferred. When tho time of
their service in expired they become In
habitants and Increase the number of the
klna-'a nfltlirnl nh1nta w hpr.n ths atflVM
) are always strangers. And who can be as
sured that by continually Increasing In our
colonies they will not one day become
formidable enemies? Can we depend upon
slaves who are only attached to us by fear
and for whom the very land where they are
born has not the dear name of mother
country ?"
Years went on. the tlark shadows and
splendid rays of light with which French
history is Interwoven shone and vanished
In their grand and awful alternance. One
day the French flag was lowered in Louisi
ana; tnat waa at the close of the seven
years' war. Another day the same flag was
seen on tne mast or a small vessel leaving
the harbor at Bordeaux, and, sailing for
America, the ship happened to bear the
auspicious name of ."La Vlctolrs," and it
bore jjarayette. Then It waa the alliance
of 1778. and the comlne. on the lama vnr.
of the first envoy accredited by any nation
to tnis country, my predecessor, Gerard de
Kay no val then the peace of 178S, when,
with the assent of the whole world, to tha
Joy. of . every French heart, thirteen stars
snone on tne American nag.
KTance followed Its destinies. In 1800
Louisiana was French again; three years
later, on the spontaneous proposal of the
rrwiuo repuonc not New Orleans alone,
not a mere strip of land, but the whole
country became forever American.
ine treaty signed one hundred years
and a day ago had few precedents
in history; it dealt with territories
larger than the empire of Alexander:
It followed no war; it was preceded
by no shedding of humsn blood, the new
possessors got a hundred times more than
they even thought of demanding and the
negotiations were so simple, the good faith
and mutual friendship so obvious, that all
was conciuaea in a lortnignt. 'me simplest
protocol on postal or sanltars questions
takes nowadays more time. -. Each party
found Ita Interest In tha tra.nsnHrm hm
something more than interest led the affair
to a speedy conclusion, and that was the
deep-rooted -sympathy of the .French and
American nauons.
Friendship Prompts Treaty.
Money waa paid, It is true, but had this
been the main consideration Louisiana
would have been preserved, for the money
was not, by far the equivalent of the
buildings and lands belonging to the state.
Part of the money was employed In satis
fying American claims.
An impending war In Europe', the possi
bilities of an occupation of Louisiana by a
foreign power, was not either the main
motive. In the council held at the Tuiler
les on Faster day, 1S03, the faithful friend
of the First Consul, the future marshal and
prince of Wag ram, Berthler, whose first
war had been the war of American Inde-
fendence, said as to this: 'If Louisiana Is
aken away from us by our rivals, what
does It matter? Other possessions would
soon be in our hands, and by means of an
exchange we should quickly obtain a resti
tution.' He concluded: "No navy without
colonies, no colonies without a navy."
Add again that the value of Louisiana
was much better understood than it had
been before. "I know the worth of what I
give up," said Bonaparte and the French
government knew It indeed. They acted
with open eyes, for they had taken care,
from the year of 1800, to gather all available
Information.
The main motive power, without which
all the others would have been of no avail
was Indeed mutual sympathy. When the
ST r .Wlu! eigne the three negotiators.
Barbe-Marbols, Monroe and Livingston,
who had known each other in America at
the time of the war of independence, rose,
and what is rare on such occasions, one
of them was able to express in a single
sentence the Intimate feelings of the three
e treaties wh'ch we have Just signed,"
said Livingston, "will cause no tears; they
prepare centuries of happiness to innumer
able generations of human beings; from
thla day the United States take their place
among the powers of the flrat rank."
I do not think that there is another ex
ample In the history of the world of a
cession of such vast territories thus ob
tained by the representatives of one of the
parties to the purchase and with the heart

l. There are two classes of creditors' bills.
one to reach tha equitable assets or prop

at law cannot be levjed; the other In aid of
an execution at law, as to set aside an In
cumbrance or a transfer of property made
to defraud creditors. In the first class of
cases the creditor must allege and show
that he hss exhausted nis remeay at law,
while in the second it is sufficient to show
that his claim has been reduced to Judg
ment and docketed in the county where the
land lies which he seeks to subject to the
navment of his claim. The equity court in
such case Is merely lending its assistance to

Division No. 1.
1. where a railway company having no
estate In land places on It, with the knowl
edge and consent of thd owner, an em
bankment, rlprappmg, ties and rails and
maintains and uses such track for Its own
purposes without objection from the owner.
such track remains the property of the rail
way company In tne absence or any agree
ment to the contrary and of anv intention
on its part to make such track appurtenant
to tne real estate.
Z. Under such circumstances an agree
ment by the licensor that the track shall
remain the property of the railway com
pany Is Implied. Fleecher v. Johnson, 1U,
XL, 181; 7 N. W. Rep., 658.
I. "Where the railway company . before
constructing Its track has settled a dis
pute as to the boundaries with the owner
of the tana, oy tne terms oi wnicn settle
ment deeds are to be made by each party
to the other of their respective holdings,
the fact that such deed is not made until
after the construction of the track, and by
its terms conveys tne iana "ana all ap
purtenances thereto belonging," will not
prevent the railway company or Its gran
tees from showing, as against the owner
and his grantees with notice, the true state
of the title, when the track waa built, nor
will such deed carry the ownership of the
tracks, they not being expressly mentioned
and not being legally appurtenant to the
owners estate.
4. In condemnation proceedings by the
grantee railway company to obtain a
right-of-way over the land the value of the
track should not be added to the owner's
damages for the taking of the land, the
railway company having remained con
tinuously In possession since the first Con
struction of the track by Itself and its
grantor.

will not be sustained unless the statements
of the petition plainly show acts and con

Z. A supplemental petition was filed by

used no medicine but Safe Cure, and there
fore know that I owe my recovery and good
health of today entirely to It.

Man Found with Skull Crushed in Vestibule
of Flat Howe.
BROTHER OF FORMER POLICE JUSTICE
Officers Think that He Was Followed
Home ay Rough Characters
and Then Mardered
and Robbed.
NEW YORK, May 1. With his skull
crushed In and the marks ol a cleaver on
his neck and shoulders James Edward Mc
Mahon, aged 17, brother of former Police
Justice Daniel F. McMahon, was found
murdered early today In the vestibule of
the flat house In West One Hundred and
Fifty-third street, where he lived. In pools
of blood that were all around the body were
the foot prints of one or two men. -
The body was found by Matthew Mc
Ardle, 14 years old, who lives on the top
floor. The boy ran to a patrolman, notify
ing him of the murder.
McMahon lived with his brotber-ln-law
and an unmarried sister. The family gave
the police little information which threw
any light on the murder. George Mlacbke,
who occupies an apartment on the ground
floor, said he end his family bad been
wakened about I o'clock by bearing a
pounding nolss In the hallway. Mischke
said he thought there were at least three
men in the hallway and the noise made
by them was terrific
He said he heard the struggle going
from one end of the hall to tha other and
heard the sounds of oaths Intermingled
with blows Incessant! Then he heard the
door slam, he says, and hoard men walking
away. He was afraid to look Into the hall
way, he said.
McMahon, It Is learned, left his brother-
in-law's apartments at t o'clock.last even
ing, ' saying he would return In a short
time.
The police say that between midnight and
1 o'clock this morning McMahon was In a
hotel In Harlem. They think that perhaps
he was followed by rough characters and
after being murdered was robbed.
The police have arrested Donald J. Ken
nedy, 24 years of age, on tbe charge ot
murdering McMahon.
Kennedy - told the police he had been
drinking In a saloon and that after leaving
It about 1 In .the morning became involved
In a fight with a man whom he declared he
did not know. He said he knocked the man
down and left hint lying on the sidewalk
The place where the fight occurred Is near
the house where McMahon s body waa
found.
