Tale of Conspiracy.

PARIS, June 4.-Gen. Boulanger, today,
gave notice tosthe eChamber that he would sub
NIT proposal for revision Of the constitu-
tion and demand urgency therefor. He read
a preamble stating that the elections which
had produced so many ma nifestations in his
favor, compelled him to call attention to the
sufferings of the country and the intense
crisis which threatens to become very seri-
GUS TO France. He declared that he no long
er feels that confidence In the future, which
is necessary to every well. governed country
This statement met with loud dissent.
General B0ulanger charged that the Re-
public was governed by group, and the re-
vision OF theconstitution was the only way
to take the government from the privileged
class. 1t was notorious that some ministers
had drawn money from the treasury TO secure
electoral votes A president Of the Republic
was not necessary. General Boulanger was
constantly interrupted, and finally the Presi-
dent of the Chamber advised him that it was
General. IN concluding, said that France, re-
constituted, could promise the continuity Of
her foreign relations. Supported by pow
srda a sne would become h Ssss
the motion for the revision Of the cOnstitu-
tion and dissolution of parliament The mo-

M; Pyat recalled the fact that Boulanger
had been colonel OF the Versailles army
against the commune
NJ Cassagnac exclaimed "You are com
munist Your place is in a convict station"
M. Pyat proceeded. amid an uproar, to de-
clare In favor of voting urgency, in spite of
the TACT that he was no admirer Of General
Boulanger, who owed his success to oppor-
tunlst persecution.
M. Flouquet charged General Boulanger
with promulgating manifesto of new Ca-
sarlsm and with giving utterance to projects
for the future wherein the glory of Boulan-

General.
M; Flouquet reminded him that at his age,
81, the great Napoleon died, and asked what
chance there was that theGenerals ambition
would attain to anything. Boulanger, he
said, would end in being nothing more than
the Sieyes of still born constitution.

THE CONDITIONS OF SUCCESS.
$50 run that ye may Obtain" Cor. o: "a.
Success is possible in anything one rightly
undertakes. 1t depends however on certain
severe conditions, which are always and
everywhere the same. In the foot race.
whence the figure of our text is drawn, there
are four essential conditions of success:
training, freedom from encumbrances, a fair
start and endurance. Scholarship demands
the same 10 10 good W0rK IN ScnOlafly
pursuits years of academic training are
necessary. II you will succeed as scholars
you cannot lug along load Of vice, frivality
and dissipation. Thanks TO this venerable
academy, you have fair start The founda-
tions Of an education you have laid thorough
ly and securely. Now 1t remains for you to
maintain by your own strength of win the
intellectual momentum the academy has
given you. Form for yourselves a high and
scholarly ideal and work toward 1t day by
day and your scholarship is assured.
Christian character, the highest object OF
human endeavor, is to be obtained by OBJ
serving these same conditions which crown
the runner with success.
The man who tries to do right without the
aid Of the church. the Bible and prayer Is
as sure to break down as the man who would
run race without preparation. The faith
fnl use OF these means Of training character Is
the first condition of success In Christian
life. Then Christian character must be ex-
pected to cost something and may require
costly denials. Thirdly, start promptly
when. the voice of God speaking through
conscience. bids you come. Finally the
Christian life calls for stout hearted en-
durance. Whether you will come through
your trials unscathed depends upon whether
you can fix your eyes upon Christ as run
ner fixes his eyes upon the goal, forgetting
his own weakness and WEAKNESS in his de-
sire to win the prize.

The Maine Men Arrive.

James Tobin lat large), Lemont A. Stephens,
Daniel W. True, j. p. Montgomery. Alonzo
Garcelon, RichardW. Black, j. j. Walker, j.
T. Bass and Albert w. Madigan, arrived in
st. Louis yesterday morning. on the New

wentto the Southern Hotel, whose manager,
Mr.. Lewis, is an old friend Of both gentle
men, having formerly been associated with
them in railroad business. The balance of
the 'Pine Tree" men are quartered at the
Planters Hotel.
The Maine men are warm for President
Cleveland and say that he has never been
stronger in that State than he Is today. Mr..
Bass Of Bangor, says that the Presidents
popularity has increased one-third since his
election. They propose to make this year,

says that General Stevenson OF Illinois,
would be an excellent man to put on the tick

work for the party would give him a great
deal of strength and they would like to see
him nominated.
They are not much affected as yet by the
Thurman enthusiasm, and are inclined to
think that with his 20 years the veteran
Ohioan's nomination might be questionable.
If, however, it is sure that Mr.. Thurman will
accept the place. and the call for him proves
reasonably strong. Maine will go in with the
current. They would do the same for GRAY
II he proves the majority's choice, and. in
fact, the Maine delegation are waiting to see
how the preferences are declared. As To the
platform and what Is best to be said on the
tariff, they think that President Cleveland's
inaugural forms the very best of Democratic
doctrine, and the committee on resolutions
cannot do better than embody that in their
work.
