J, because of the insane jealousy of Ignazo Ples- cia, including his own, and all because bis pretty wife refused to return to his bome, He called at the home of Sebastian Pecorino, on Union street, Lodi, where his wife and two children were stay- ing with relatives, and killed all he found in the house. The dead are: Mrs. Antonio Peco- rino, aged seventy-eight years, the grandmother of Mrs. Plescia, shot through the heart; Mrs. Anna Foca- rino, aged sixty-five years, mother-in- law of Sebastian Pecorino, shot in the head; Mrs. Concettino Plescia, aged twenty-seven years, wife of the mur derer, shot in the breast and through the heart: Fedelo, seven years old, the danghier oi Plescia, shot twice in the head; lgnazo Plescia, thirty years old, shot in the head a suicide. | Mrs. Plescia’s husband had abused his pretty young wife ever since their marriage in New York city eight years ago. Two days ago she had him arrested for beating her. Following his arrest, Mrs. Plescia left his home on Garibaldi avenue, Lodi, and went to | live with the Pecorino family, where | her aged grandmother lived. ! Joseph and Sebastian Pecorino com- | duct a barber shop and candy store | in the same building in which they live. Mrs. Plescia obtained work in’ the Alexander dye works and was happy with her two children. The Process of Stitching the Haire inte the Skin, At a certain factory a number of young women were working at small tables, each table covered with little instruments and odd things which those who kpew the business | only could possibly understand. At one table two girls were threading needles with fine silky hairs and sewing them in little squares on a thin transparent gauze. “Those girls” said the overseer, “are making some of those beautiful arch- ed eyebrows yon may sometimes see | on the stage. ‘They are uently y fey | new cardinals receiving the red hat | worn by both actors and sctresses. These sewed on the net are the less expensive kind and are only used on special occasions. The real brow is very expensive aud can only be made by a person of great skill. “The patient sits here in his chair, which very much resembles a den- tist’'s operating throne. In this cush- fon to my left are stuck a score or 80 of those needles yon saw being threaded. Each stitch leaving only two strands of hair, to facilitate the operation a number of needles must be at hand. A= each thread of hair is drawn through the skin over the eye it is cut, so that when the first stage of the operation is over it leaves the hairs bristling out an loch or so, pre- senting a ragged. porcupine appear ance. Now comes (he artistic work. The brow must be srched and cut down with the utmost delicacy, and a number of bours is required to do it. | “Small as the eyebrows are, they are | very important in the makeup of the face.

Simple But !mpressive Ceremony Marks the Assent of Sacred College to Nominations—Pope Delivers an Allocution. The secret consistory creating nine- ‘teen new cardinals, three Americans ‘among them, was held by Pope Pius X. in Rome. The ceremonial was ex- ceedingly impressive. day. It was announced that besides the the pope created one, whom he re- served “in pectore” (kept secret). This deperture from the known pro- gram gave rise to all sorts of rumors, incinding one that Archbishop Ireland, | of St. Paul, would receive a red hat. Official denial of this purpose or that any other American prelate in addition to those proclaimed would be elevat- ed, was anthorized at the Vatican. It is Monsignor Filippo Giustini, secre- tary of the Congregation of Sacra- | ments. The name, however, will not | be reveaied until z later consistory, ! at the option of the pope, and it is possible that this may not be until , after the death of the reigning pontiff. The Pope Looked Careworn. Of those thus honored three are citizens of the United States: Monsig- nor John M. Farley, archbishop of ' New York: Monsignor William O'Con- nell, archbishop of Boston, and Mon- signor I1Yomede Faleonio, apostolic | delegate (0 the United States.

Egan, James Wrignt and Thomas Loney, members of the elec- tion board of the Sixth district of | Larksville borough, were convicted in court in Wilkes-Barre, Pa, of com-' mitting fraud at the recent election. The specific charges against the defendants were that they failed to return affidavits of non-registered vot- ers and improper czve of the ballot | box. The condition of the contents of | the box when brought into court were very filthy. When the defendants were arraign- ed Judge Garman scored them se- verely and said crooked elections were in the same class as murder. The judge's charge undoubtedly did much to convict the three election officers. Other election officers are awaiting , trial on similar charges. “ Sick Man Burned to Death. David G. Buck, seventy-two years | old, was found burned to death at the | residence of his daughter, Mrs. Mary Smith, on West Basin street, Norris- | fown, Pa. The aged man had been ill for some time and had been confined to his bed, ! While the daughter went oping | the house was left in charge of a five-year-old son of Mrs. Smith. 1 The police say that the hoy set fire in some manner to the bed clothing. He then crawled out of a window and was found on the front porch by the firemen. The body of Buck was found on the floor of the bedroom. Morse Removed to Army Hospital. Charles W. Morse, the New York banker, exchanged his bare cell at the federal prison in Atlanta, Ga,, for a more commodions ward in the army hospital at Fort McPherson. The change was ordered by Aitor- ney General Wickersham, who re- cently made a special visit to Atlanta to investigate the condition of Mr Morse. He made the trip in safety and ap- peared enthusiastic over his first glimpse of the outside world in two! years. ? Kindergarten Work Denied 4,000,000. The contrast between gifts of $53, 000,000 to the cause of higher ednca- tion in this country this year and the fact that there are 1,000,000 children in the country without the privileges of kindergarten training, was brought out in the report of Miss Bessie Locke, corresponding secretary of the Na-: tional Kindergarten association at its | annual meeting in New York, : Prison Term For Cummins.

Fre- | quently objections were raised to cap- didates and their names were never proclaimed. Hence the privacy of the meeting. In the hail of the consistory those whom duty or privilege brought there chatted for a few moments, noting sadly the massing of several who had been present on the last similar ocea- sion. Presently the door at the rear of Guards appeared, making way for the white-clad figure of his holiness. "ci lowed hy Swiss Guards and his suite, the pontiff paused for a moment at the threshold while those present bent the knee. With a smile he greeted them and then walked to the throne, The procession before the throne followed immediately.
