QuEBEc'S GREAT FESTIVAL.
the Installation of Cardinal
Taseherean.
The Ancient City In Gay Holiday
Attire.

QUEBEC, July 21.-The weather today was
all that could be desired for the great festi-
val attending the installation of Cardinal
Taseherean. The ancient capital never pre-
sented gayer or more animated appear
ance. Crowds of strangers have been arriv-
ing continually since yesterday, many of
them being from New York, Boston and
other American cities. Flags are flying in
every direction, and some eighteen magnif-
cent triumphal arches are erected on the
route of today's procession. The streets
with their wealth of decorations and bunting
presented very beautiful appearance.
At $50 o'clock the streets in the vicinity
were impossible. The procession formed
and proceeded at $50 O'Clock. Over thirty
different societies were represented in the
procession, besides members of Parliament,
the bench and bar, municipal and CONNER
cial bodies, and clergy In the Cardinals
carriage were seated His Eminence and the
Papal ablegate. A detachment of Papal
Zouaves acted as body guard. Ihe pro
cession moved to the Jesuit barracks. The
Cardinal was greeted all along the route
with cheers and the respectful salutes of the
assembled thousands. The procession here
halted, and His Eminence and the bishops
proceeded to the kiosk which had been erect
ed ON the grounds, and put on their pontifcal
robes in the presence of about 10000 per-
sons. The procession then resumed its
march and proceeded to Basilica amid the
booming of salute Of 100 guns, fired by the
Quebec Field Artillery.
The service in the church was most impos-
ing. The mass sung was that OF Charles
XII. The sermon was delivered by Mon
seigneur Gravel of NicOlet.
The ceremonies connected with the Car
dinaps installation were opened yesterday
with the swearing in of the new Cardinal in
the private chapel of his palace, in the pres
ence of the Papal ablegate and the noble
guard-the Archbishops of Toronto, Mon
treal, Halifax, Ottawa, st. Boniface, Char
lottetown, st. John, N. B., st. Louis, Mo-,
and New Orleans.

RiDDLED WITH BULLETS.
A Negro Shot by a Mob for Assault
on Woman.

CHICAGO, July 21-A special from Luling,
Tex, says: Last night the town was thrown
into state of excitement by the advent of
mob of masked men, who, entering town
about eleven O'Clock and overpowering the
guard around the jail, entered and literally
riddled Porter Sorrell, a negro about TWEEN
ty years old, with bullets, killing him in
stantly.
Yesterday afternoon Sorrell went to the
residence of Mr.. Robert Dukes who resides
four or five miles northwest of Luling, and
demanded of Mrs. Dukes money which he
claimed was due him. The lady referred
him to her husband, who was at work in the
field.
Sorrell became insolent, and Mrs Dukes
becoming alarmed took out revolver and
commanded the negro to leave He stepped
outside and taking up hatchet returned and
again demanded his money. She ordered
him to leave, when he spang upon her, disab-
ling her arm with blow from the hatchet,
and, wrestling the pistol from her, beat her
over the head with it in frightful manner.
Some dogs, attracted by the noise, attacked
the negro so viciously that he was compelled
to flee. A posse found him at his mothers
cabin and placed him in jail, l,where his corpse
now is Mrs. Dukes is dying.

An Invitation Declined.

CONCORD, N. H., July 21.-Two letters
have been received from Robert E. Lee Camp
of Richmond, declining an invitation of the
Veterans Association to attend the coming

signed is that large share Of the members
of the camp are men in the common walks
of life who could not bear the expense of
the trip, although the invitation was unani-
mously appreciated, The idea of inviting
the camp originated with as badly wound
ed Union soldier as there is in the State,
Capt. Matt Shackford, of Lake Village The
subject was laid before the executive COM
mittee and voted unanimously in favor of
Rebel soldiers but as citizens. The invita-
ton was sent and in the meantime parties in
