Wires From Montreal The inquest on the body of the the Doukhobor woman exhumed by the authorities last week was resumed in the court bouse at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon by Coroner Blaok, of Qreen wood, after an adjournment bad been taken from Friday to allow of a post-mortem examination being made. Dr Truax, one of the physicians making tbe examinination, testified tbat no marks of violence had been found on the body, and that death was caused by pneumonia, wbich had reached the third stage Tbis evidence was corroborated by Dr. Tbomset, wbo assisted in tbe autopsy. A number of other witnesses were examined during the afternoon. At 10 o'clock in the evening tbe jury, composed of G. A. Stewart, foreman; J. P. McNevin, Cyrus L. Bugbee, E A. Johnson, H. 6. Moore and CM. Connell, returned tbe fallowing verdict: Wt, the jury, say upon our oath, that from the evidence produced, we believe tbe body of tbe deceased to be tbat of Mary Hoomnoho, who died about Monday, August 11th instant, at the Tweddle ranch or vicinity, of pneumonia, unattended, as we believe, by a qualified physician; and by medical evidence produced, we believe her chances of recovery were good if proper medical attention bad been given. By medical evidence produced, we learn thai tbere is now in tbe Doukhobor colony at least one case of incurable contagious disease, and we recommend that the authorities have a health officer to visit the Doukhobor colony at least once a month to look into the health and sanitary conditions of the people living there, and also tbe law regarding the registration of births, marriages and deaths be strictly enforced, for we learn, by evidence produced, tbat there baa been no registration of births, marriages or deaths from the colony since tbe present registrar took office. The only incident out ot tbe usual in connection with the inquest occurred during tbe afternoon, when Coroner Black ordered the police to go out to the colony and bring in a Doukhobor who, be had reasons to believe, would prove important witness. Constable Btanfield and Chief Savage were despalched in an auto to perform this task. When they reached the mnn they were after he made hit escape by taking to the open fields. The officers were prevented from pursuing the flying Doukhobor by being confronted hy a battalion of colony Amazons, who used bricks, rocks, pitchforks and other farm implements as weapons of war with remarkable accuracy of marksmanship.

Members of International Geological Congress Visit the City Yesterday morning a special train of seven coaches, carrying the members of tbe C2 section of the international geological congress, which recently concluded its session in Toronto, arrived in the city from Nelson, and tbe cninent visitors spent a couple of hours bere. Wben tbe train pulled into tbe union station at about 8 o'clock, all tbe autos in tbe city were assembled tbere, and one-balf of the members of tbe party, or about forty, were taken for an automobile ride around tbe loop and up to tbe Granby smelter. Tbe balance of tbe visitors were taken to smelter io tbe special train. After the members of the party been shown tbrough tbe Granby smelter by the oflice staff, tbey again boarded the train and pio- ceeded to Pboenix. It was tbe largest number ef prominent men who have ever visited Grand Forks. Tbe party included ninety five eminent geologists from every country in the world, wbo participated in the twelfth session of the International Geological Congress of the World, wbich was held in Toronto from August 7 to 14. This was the first session of this notable congress ever beld in Canada, and the third on tbe west ern side of the Atlantic. Tbe session was beld in Canada tbis year on tbe invitations of tbe Dominion and Ontario governments, the Canadian Mining Institute aud the Royal Society of Canada. Geology is defined as tbe science of treating tbe earth's history, and it includes tbe study of the mineral deposits and tbe floras and faunas which have successfully clothed and peopled the earth's surface. The direct value of geological work is now fully reoognized, especially in all branches of engineering, and is daily applied not only to mining problems, but to many others, sucb as water supplies, foundations for bridges and large buildings, dams, road construction and tbe like. The object of tbe congress, therefore, wss, briefly, the advancement of knowledge concerning the earth, both in the field of pure geological science and in ils application to tbe arts and industries, through the association and co operation of the leading geologists of all nations. These gieat gatherings of distinguished scholars bave greatly aroused interest in geology on the part of private individuals, corporations and governments; given it a higher standing as a science, and rendered possible its increased economic application. Geologists from every quarter ot the globe made up Ihe parly of visitors to Grand Forks. Tbey may be broadly classed as professors and teachers from tbe leading colleges and universities of tbe world,officers of government geological surveys, and geologists and mining engineers i n private practice Mrs. W. Truax and son Clarence have returned home after an extended tour fo the coast cities. TIIE SUN, GRAND FORKS, BRITISH COLUMBIA. "-""] Dwarfs In the fresco ol the 'Vision ot the Cross' in the Constaiitiniun room of Uaphael's Stanze at the Vatican, one ct the figures is a strange one to find io the representation of such a solemn subject. It is a very small dwarf, wearing an enormous golden helmet that would be more suitable to a giant. To the modem mind this grotesque figure seems a jarring note in a stalely composition, but there Js no doubt that Raphael, who designed the picture was justified by history In introducing him, for it ls known that Constantine was a connoisseur in dwarfs and had one of whom he was no higher than a partridge. This curious taste for dwarfs dates from early times; in the days of the empire, from Augustus onwards, no man of fashion felt Ills establishments complete without at least one; their drolleries und anllcs were found amusing and they were sometimes allowed liberties denied (o others; the Emperor Tiberius for Instance, would allow his dwarf to tell him truths that he would submit to from no other. One of lhe spectacles with which Domltian regaled the people lu the circus was a battle ot dwarfs. Through lhe Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the fashion of having these unfortunate creatures attached to courts and the establishments of the pre at continued. Everyone knows how in the palace of Mantua, built for Isabella' D'Estc, there is a suite of rooms for these tiny retainers, with doors suitable only for their passage, and In the pictures of Veronese, Man- tegna, Valasqucz, and almost all the great painters of the Renaissance we find them portrayed. The dwarf who served as model for Raphael in the Constantine fresco belonged to the pope nnd rivaled that of Constantine in size or rather In the lack of it. Remedy for Nose Bleeding There are two little arleries which supply the face with blood, one on each side. These branch off from the main arteries on each side of the windpipe, and running upward toward the eyes, pass over outside of the jawbone, about two-thirds of the way back from tlie chin to the angle of the jaw, under the ear. Now, suppose your nose bleeds by tho right nostril; with the end of the forefinger feel along the outer edge of the right jaw untilyou feel the beating of the artery direotly under your finger, the same as the pulse In your wrist; then press the finger hard upon it, thus getting tb? little fellow in a tight place between your linger and the jawbone. The result will be that not a drop of blood goes Into that side of the face wWle the pressure continues; hence the nose instantly stops bleeding for wont o'f blood to flow, and the ruptured vessels lu the nose will probably by that time contract, no that when you let th. blood into them Ihey will not bleed. Bleeding from a cut or wound anywhere about the face maybe stopped In the sani3 way. MUST BE POLITE Sly dear, said the conscientious wife, how can you make such statements? What's wrong now? asked the man. Before the children you told Mr. and Mrs. Sayso, that when your grandfather got a cold In ills chest he would cough so hard that his hair fell off. Now, what sort of regard for truth will our children have if they hear their father telling such— But didn't you know my grandfather wore a wig? It used lo be said that variety is the spice of life, but some play producers are trying hard to substitute vulgarity for variety. BeautyofSkin BeautyofHair German Minister of Railways Instructs Government Employees The Prussian Ministry of Railways has issued an ordinance requesting the employees, especially their lady employees to be more polite in their intercourse with the public. Numerous complaints have reached the Ministry of short-comings in this respect and the Ministry warns its servants that If they do not turn over a new leaf sterner measures will be taken. . With regard to the ladies, their main- faults appear to be too great an addle fion to knitting, crocheting, and the preparation of tea or coffee when tbe public is Impatiently waiting to be supplied with railway tickets. ln busy times they are also loo apt to lose their heads and to answer impatient travelers tactlessly.

Lady Farmer Raises Record Crop Mrs. Annie E. Williams, of Gkich en, Alberta, had a record 'flax crop last year. She seeded (13.33 acres and threshed 1,877 bushels—which Is equivalent lo 29.63 bushels to lhe acre. The significance of this will be more readily appreciated when it Is stated that the average yield per acre last year in Alberta was 12.83, in Saskatchewan, 12.56; In Manitoba, 13.39, In all Canada, 12.60, and in the United States 9.90 bushels to the acre. The variety which was gfown was 'Premost,' a new kind which hns heen developed by the Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, and which ripens from ten days to a fortnight earlier'than ordinary flax. The record of the growth of this crop shows that it was seeded April 16-18, was une foot high and in bloom on June 23rd. ripe on August 10th and cut on August 27th.

You are almost a stranger. Will I accept your seat? Well, I do feel tired, I admit. Thank you so much. The man arose. Sit down, Jane, my girl, said he, as he courteously pointed to the vacant seat. I don't often see you out on a washing day. You must feel tired, I'm sure. How Is your mistress?

They are revealed by pimples and unsightly blotches on the skin. They must be treated Inwardly, and for this purpose there is no more effective compound to be used thnn Parmelee's Vegetable Pills. They act directly on the liver and by setting up healthy processes have a beneficial effect upon the blood, so that impurities are eliminated.

CUBS' FOOD They Thrive on Grape-Nuts Healthy, babies don't cry nnd the well-nourished baby that I- fed on Grape-Nuts is never a crying baby. Many babies who cannot take any other food relish tlie perfect food, Grape-Nuts, and get well. My baby wns given up by three doctors who saitl that the condensed milk on which I had fed her hud ruined Ihe child's stomach. One of the doctors told me thnt the only thing to do would be to try Grape-Nuts, so I got some and pi-cgai-cd ll oa follows: I soaked; 1'4 tablespoonfuls In one pint of cold water for half an hour, then I strained off the liquid and mixed 12 tenspoonfuls nf this strained Grape-Nuts Juice with six tenspoonfuls of rich milk, put ln n pinch of snl: and a lltlle sugar, warmed It and gave It to the baby every two hours. In this simple, easy way I saved baby's life and have built her up to a strong, healthy child, rosy and laughing. The food must certainly be perfect to have such a wonderful effect as this. I cnn truthfully say I think it Is the best food In the world to raise delicate babies on and is also a delicious healthful food for grown-ups as we have discovered In our family." Grape-Nuts Is equally valuable to the strong, healthy man or woman. It stands for the true theory ot health.

A Constant Change In Body Tissues "Our bodies," says Huxley, "may be likened to an eddy in the river, which retains its shape for a while, though every instant each particle of water ts changing." The tissues of the body, composed of millions of tiny cells, are being constantly broken .down r.nd wasted away by the process of lite, and especially by overwork, worry and disease. In order to reconstruct these wasted tissues there are necessary such elements as Iron, sulphur, magnesia, potash, etc., and when these are not supplied in sullieient quantities In the food we eat It is necessary to aid nature by the use of some restorative preparation. Most people find Dr. Chase's Nerve Food particularly effective under such circumstances, because tt Is composed of the very elements ot nature which go to form new, rich blood, create new nerve cells and rebuild wasted tlBsues. This great food cure Is radically different from medicines which are usually employed in the treatment of nervous diseases. For, while they stimulate tired nerves to overexertion or by narcotic Influence soothe and deaden them, Dr. Chase's Nerve Food revitalizes wasted nerve cells and so accomplishes lastingly beneficial results. Such symptoms as slcepleuess, Irritability, headache, indigestion, brain tire and feelings of fatigue and discouragement soon disappear when the system is built up by thamse of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food BO cents a box, nil dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Limited-, Toronto.

Ue Is not aware that the tamo company could, within See days, transport an army of thirty thousand people from Vancouver to Balltas, giving oach a sleeping berth and supplying ninety thousand meals a day, or practically half a million on tha Sn day Journey across tha continent. Again, hs does not realise that, lf tht dining and sleeping .cars of tha Canadian PaclBo Railway vera mado un Into a single train with a locomotive stationed at 1 star vale ten coaches apart, that that train would be. fourteen miles long. To man this oity on wheels would require an army of three thouaand dining and sleeping car attendants with several hundred additional men at terminals to handle supplies for them.

Recognising this, tha Canadian Pacific Baltway * hu worked out an elaborate system of Individual service, reducing tht handling of food to a minimum. All broad, cakes, pastry, pie, puddings, etc., are prepared tn Individual orders; in fact this system ts ettendtd to cover all posslblt service; even Ice cream, which Is madt under most sanitary conditions, ls prepared ln Individual portions, each portion wrapped lu special cut to prevent_handling. (ITS riRBT CARE. On*) of the flrst cores of tht Canadian Paciflo Bailwiy is to see that all Its employees are physically healthy and clean and to this end It has been deemed cipediont to establish a chain of homes for the dining and sleeping car men over the enttro continent. The C. P. ll. Is tht only railroad corporation today which provide! this clsss of employees with free lodgment and bed when away trom home. At ell large terminal* such as Toronto, Winnipeg, Moose Jaw. Calgary and Vancouver these dining car and sleeping car employees art housed by tht company. In establishing this system tht management bid one main Idea ln view. It would bt able to give tho general publio tht assurr.net that every employee had a physique free from disease, because all are oubjected to a periodic medical tiamlnation, ami It would Itself then be in a position to assume responsibility for tbe cleanliness ot employees. Tinder tbe system that prevails on the C.P.R. lt Is impossible for a dining or sleeping car * on a run, as lt Is called, taken a bath and gotten employee to go out on a run, as lt Is called, without, fint having taken a bath and gotten. his clothes newly cleaned and pressed freo of tht entire requirements, especially apples and potatoes, for this service tor all western lln-i ont yoar In advance. Tht quality ot these fruits, ■uoh a* apples, plums, cherries, pears, anil vegetables .such as celery and potatoes now stands) highest ia tht continent. AR OBSTINATE PROBLEM Oat rtally obstinate problem hu confronted auy cost to the employee. Nor Is tbe Canadian Pacific Railway Inspired by solely butilnesi motives ln this work, Tho compeny Is not a "soulless corporation" In dealing with its men. On tha contrary, tho homes, aa th* Illustrations will show, aro an embodiment of the cosy home spirit. Comfortable nooks and corners Abound. All ant scientifically ventilated and managed by competent caretakers. Libraries, bathrooms, Including •bowers, largo windows and indeed all tht addenda of the modern home are present, and everything ts spotlessly clean. Thus, when a C. P.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 1913 Last week the people of tbis district rejoiced over the prospect that tbe provincial government was about to enforce tbe laws in tbe Doukhobor colony. Tbis week tbey are dejected, because the attempt was made and it proved a failure II tbe government intends to let the matter drop at this stage, only injury has been done to the people of the district. Tbe officers bave had a set-to witb tbe Doukhobors. and the latter came out victorious by long odds. This will inzrease tbeir contempt for tbe law and the authorities. It will til*o have a tendency to make tbem less desirable neighbors, as their •arroeance increases with every success over tbe government. If tbe administration intends to make these people com ply with tbe laws of the province, a firm hand should be used. If tbis can not be done, the citizens of this district would much prefer to have them left alone. Every attempt of tbe government so far bas been a farce. The report of the Doukho bor commission was flagrantly biased, and gave ihe inhabitants of colony confidence in tbeir fancied supremacy; the fiasco last week started with a melo-drama and ended with ia a screaming farce-comedy. If tbis kind of work is to continue, for goodness sake let the Doukhobors have tbeir own way. Every sue ceeding meddling witb this matter only leaves a stronger and more un pleasant odor. A good Tory in this oity lust week remarked, "The only way to settle the Doukhobor question is to get a new government." . We believe be was right. The sensational story sent out from thia city, and printed in a number of daily papers, this week regarding a pitched battle between tbe provincial police and a troop of Doukhobor Amazons, was greatly overdrawn, and will do the district no good. The encounter was not very serious, and tbe police eay they have no desire to. pose as tin hemes by warring with women. Perhaps the correspondent is not so modest, and covets the title himself. If a cause ean not triumph by truth, it is better that it should perish than prove victorious with the aid of falsehood Considered by this principle, the story circulated in city last Saturday to tbe effect tbat the skull of tbe Doukhobor body ex burned last week had been found crushed in, disgustHd a great many citizens, wbo are really desirous tbat tbe laws should he enforced in the colony. As the ver lict of the cor Sir Richard Sir Richard is an orator of the dithyrambic school. He is mellifluous and Lydian, and his chinook is heavily endowned with flowery adjectives. His ideas are spread a little thin. If he is short on ideas, be is long on fascination, Sir Richard scintillates. It seems too bad tbat most of hie rays are confined to one province, .Mr. Bowser is often acidulous and Mephistopbelian, but Sir Riehard jb always sunny. He is al ways willing to talk, and never puts off till tomorrow wbat he say today. Often his free talking has displeased Mr. Bowser, who bas on several occasions reproved bis accomplice for saying tbe right thing at the wrong time or the wrong thing at tbe right lime time.

THE DANGER" JDF^ANAEMIA Consumption Ma; Follow Unless Its Ravages Are Checked There ls danger to every girl and every woman who falls a victim to anaemia—that is bloodlessness. They become listless, feel too weak, too wretched and too hopeless to take prompt steps to stop the trouble. Too often, through neglect, they drift into a worse condition, forgetting that anaemia frequently leads on to consumption. If you are anaemic ln the least degree you should lose no time in beginning treatment, to increase and en- enrich the blood supply. To do this there Is no other medicine so good as Dr. Williams' Pink PIUs. Every dose helps make rich, red blood, which drives out disease and brings again the bloom ot health to pale and sallow cheeks. There are thousands of women and growing girls ln Canada who owe their present good health to tho timely use of Dr. Williams' Pink PIUs. ,/Vmong those who have bcen restored to health by this great medicine Is Miss Rose Neville, Mount Forest, Ont., who says: "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills performed almost a miracle in my case. I was a victim of anaemia, in what my friends considered a dangerous form. I was very pale, always felt tired out, suffered from severe headaches, and had no appetite. I was taking doctor's medicine for a long time—-In fact I tried two doctors —hut instead ot Improving 1 seemed to be growing worse. My parents were at a loss to know -what"*to do for me and thought-l would not recover. Then a friend advised Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and 1 had only taken thein a few weeks when I began to feel better. This greatly encouraged me and I con- tinutd taking the PIUs for some time longer, and found my health again as good as ever it had bcen. In tact I am stronger than ever I was before. I have advised the use ot Dr. Williams' Pink PIUs to other girls who have found tho results equally beneficial."

The Town of Jump Off- Two yenrs ngo I exhibited my moving pictures at tbe town of Jump OCT, wblcb was founded as a future rival of Chicago nud bad seven murders and nine elopements the flrst year. When I showed the picture of General Washington at Valley Forgo-emnclated, starved, discouraged and almost ready to trade American liidepcudcut-0 for a pumpkin pie-there was a breathless silence In the audience for a minute, •ml then sobs and tears broke fortb from every point of the hall.

I then at- blblted a picture of Satan walking arm ln arm wltb a Boston alderman thai had sold his vote for $2,000, and tber* was applause lasting seven minutes. I Had Great Hopes. The next pleture was Faith clinging to Ibe cross. I had great hopes that this would bring the audience back Into the strntgbt and narrow path, but was doomed to disappointment She wns advised to go bome and go to darning stockings, and when I wonld have expressed my surmise nt such sacrilege some one threw a turnip and hit ne on the jaw. From thence on I exhibited only pic* tures showing that tbe wages ot sin are from four to ten dollars a day, with board and washing and theater tickets thrown ln, and tbe audience went wild with enthusiasm. I could uot close my eyes to tbe fact tbat tbe drift of the times was toward wickedness and that tbe traveling agents of family Bibles must be living on onions and sleeping ln fence corners. Next day, while I was driving over tbe blgbwny from Jump OH to Stop Here, I met a cavalcade. My Innocent face, venerable wbiskara and baa.*' Ing insure me respect In most cases tbe cavalcade removes Its hats and bows low before me. ln tbls case as a sign of ttae degenerncy of the times the malcnde baited, and the leader asked me what I would take for my whisk- |»rs. I had not yet recovered from my astonishment when another man dismounted and climbed up on the wheel of my wagon and actually gave a tug ut my whiskers to see lf they were' false. Then tbey called me old man and old boy and old hoss, und one of them tried to spit tobacco juice ln my fighting dog's eyes. As 1 drove on It just did seem to me thnt the end of the world wns at band. In Imagination I could see the destruction of Sodom and bear tbe yells of Its perishing Inhabitants, A Spirit ef Levity. I Having rouched tbe town itself, I observed that a spirit of levity and gay- ety pervaded tbe place; but, though It might be owing to tbe fact that tbere was a man In town from Denver trying to sell folding bathtubs and hairbrushes. I opened my show by Introducing Pilgrim .Toe's Alternative, which is n well known remedy for drawing folks buck from tbe grave. I bnd scarcely announced tbat tbe price still remained 25 cents, notwithstanding tbe panic, when a crowd began to hoot In selling this alternative I usually tell a little story. It Is about a fond mother whose sunny huh/cd little boy gets In tiie wuy of a brick house and la crushed to a pulp. The mother sits grieving over the remains nntl walling out tbat tbere is no more happiness for ber on tbls earth when nu nngel comes flying down wltb n bottle of my justly celebrated remedy tn ber hand. Sbe pnts tbo grieving mother on her head and then sprinkles somo of tbe alternative over the remains of the child, in Ave minutes he Is chasing grasshoppers and the mother Is laughing In glco and wonderlug wben tlie next clrcuB will come along. Seeing tbat tbe crowd at Stop Here was a little out of bumor, I started In to tell this story, but It brought missiles Instead or tears aud smiles. A i majority of those missiles collided with ' my sacred body, and for the only tlmo In thirteen yenrs I was somewhat em- burrnsscd. I passed tbe picture nloug nnd, substituted "Tbe Discovery of America." No good.

I , Recently two extraordinary cases of ,-rery numerous offspring in the same family were recorded in the Knglish cress, and these attracted -great attention at the time. One was that ot Mr. and Mrs. Rogers, of Chiswiek, |who can boast a family of no fewer than twenty-nine "little" ones, though these are by t-vo mothers, the present Mrs. Rog.rs being the second wife ol I Mr. Charles of that ilk, who is a well-known builder In the district. [The proud father, aged seventy-four; ; might have been seen carrying his latest infant to its baptism a week or two ago, and Chiswiek supporters did due honor to the occasion. II The other case was thst of Mr. T. A. j Black, ol Purley, Surrey, who, curiously enough as a coincidence, can ' also claim to be the lather of twenty- ! nine children; and in this instance ,, , ! the writer believes, too, that Mr. Slack unlikely that he would be able to can boast that these "thirty sava one" ' pray lor her without frightening her. are still all alive. Capital as these examples are, as showing that even in this age of bishops and judges who rail at the decaying birth-rate, yet the nation is not wholly going to the dogs in this matter, the instances mentioned do not form snything like a "record" _ for the country in this fashion. Hit Lordship Wat Summoned to tho Bedside of a Girl of Flftten Suffer. Ing From Nervous Breakdown— Praytd For Htr and Anolntad Hae Htad With Oil After Which She Dropped Off Into a Sound Sleep. Hia Lordship the Bishop ol London recently effected a marvelous cure ia the case of a fifteen-year-old girl suffering from a nervous breakdown. When hid lordship reached the sick chamber In response to the mother'o request, he found that the little ono had been raving and shrieking in delirium all the afternoon, and it seemed unlikely that he would be able Kntw What to Do. A trolley car hnd butted Into tt pedestrian, who was knocked prone. Others wbo were passing, thinking tho accident might bo serious, rushed to the assistance of tbe fallen mnn.

I There was that stalwart Scot hail- ,ing from Cromarty, Mr. Thos. Urqu* | hart, who was not only the lather of thirty-six children, but had the supreme satisfaction of living to see a large number of them gain very high .positions and become quite eminent. 'Of the thirty-six no fewer than twenty- 'five were sons—quite an unusual proportion of tlie kind. I Sunderland just now seems to be ■trying to either break the record in 'another, way, or to qualify in decent time for a place amongst Ihe notables '.already mentioned. For the wife of a 'small shop-keeper in the Wearaido town last month presented her spouse jwith twins, which would have satisfied most fond parents as the product ol one twelve months. However, when it is learned that this same good lady had already borne another set ol twins less than a year previously ono may be forgiven for saying that, at the rate of "four a year'' to such a 'youthful couple, the claims of Mr. Rogers, Mr. Slack, or even Mr. Urqu- hart, appear in much danger of being soon excelled. i In the annals ot "Numerous Children," by Boyle, there is a case given of a Paris lawyer who had no fewer than forty-five; and history also states that a baker in France could boast of twenty-one children, born at seven births, and all within the astonishing short spnee of seven years What a family this would have been for winning the good grnces ot tha prelate of London, or the former Bisiiop ol Hlponl 01 course, the actual "record," so f-r as authentic history can give it at; all, surely belongs to Signers (iranta, j the wile of an Italian living at Barcelona.
