Dom Pedro Was Conscious to the Last.

PARIS, Dec. 5.-Accounts of the scenes,
at the deathbed of Dom Pedro, who was
conscious to the end, show to the very LASH
his thoughts were of the country over
which he SO long ruled and whose welfare,
despite the treatment accorded him and his
family, he had 80 closely at heart. Countess
dEu, heiress apparent to the, Brazilian
throne, has no present intention to protest
to the Brazilian government against her
exile from the country, but she maintains
her rights in the country In connection
with the crown. She says she is ready to
return to Brazil at the first summons sent
her. The remains of Dom Pedro will be
inferred in the family vault at Lisbon.
The death of Dom Pedro occurred at
IL 40 o'clock this morning His end
peaceful and almost painless. He
received the last sacrament Of
the church before his death Imme-
diately after the death of the ex-Emperor,
all present in the room knelt and kissed the
hand Of Countess d. Eu, who upon her
fathers death instantly became invested
with all the rights TO the throne Of Brazil
The Duke of Aumale and Duke of Nemours
visited the Countess d. Ed this morning to
offer her their condolences.
Newspapers of all shades of political
opinion concur in their estimation of the
late Dom Pedro's character, and they all
print articles highly eulogistic of him.

TAR AND FEATHERS
DIR. r. H. Welfiy, of Johnson,
Neb., Given q Coat of Them.
He Was Told Not to Return Upon Pain Of
Hanglng-Aceused of Being too Init
mate With Mems Wives.

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 5.-[Special telegram
to THE Observation-Disclosures of the Ne
braska Medical Association are intensely
indignant over what they term dastardly
outrage perpetrated on DR.. r. H. Welfy,
of Johnson, Neb., a prominent and leading
physician of the state. For some time past
DR.. Weltiy of that place has been paying
marked attentions to the wife of Charles
Drehmer, prominent merchant Of that
city. For the past month Mr.. Drehmer
has been confined to his bed with sickness
at his fathers house, just across the stree
from his place Of business. Last night
while sitting in his Office Welfy was
surprised by eight men, who took
him to the outskirts of the town, stripped
him of his clothing, poured a half gallon of
tar over him, rubbed the feathers into this,
and then hauling him nearly to Tecumseh,
dropped him with the warning that hang
ing would be the result of his temperance
in Johnson. The victim has lived in John
son for ten years and has frequently been
too intimate with other mems wives and
was reported to have been on intimate
terms with some other women at the
time the citizens concluded to ship him.
There is no clue to the identity of the
masked men, nor is any effort being made
to disclose their names. The physician has
not been heard of since the assault and
some of his friends profess to think that
he has been dealt with more severely than
the regulators have admitted. DR.. Welfy
was attending the lady whom he is charged
particularly with malLreaJinR,

effect that on the night OF November IS
two secret societies named Tsintnan and
Tssili, composed of immigrants from China
proper, proceeded to Mongolia, iraugurated
a revolt against foreigners and Christians

the province of Jehot. According to the

hundred Christians, several native priests,

ordered Tsung Liyaman to telegraph to the
governor general of the province and all
Tartar commanders in Kanchuria to dis
patch all available troops to the scene of
the revolt.

rebels were defeated, the troops advancing

Michael CAROLS Spirit Said to
Haunt the Anaconda,
HOW TO DISPOSE OF CRANKS
1t Is Suggested They Should Be Apprehended-
Sage Will Resume Business Monday
The Bomb Thrower Identified.

BUTTE, Mont, Dec. s. Especial telegram
to The HERALD. THE miners employed in
the Anaconda copper mine in this city are
terribly excited over the report that the
spirit of Michael Carroll is having things
its own way on the 700-foot level of the
mine So great has the temerity of the
men working on this level become that the
superstltious ones have refused to work
thereon. Those who claim to have seen
the aparition say that in addition to
strange noises being heard on the 700 level,
the spirit perches itself on the timbers in
the slopes and gives orders as to the man
ner in which the work should be performed.
Michael Carroll was at one time foreman
Of the property, but last winter he died of
pneumonia. AT times he was Sc
we're boss, and in an alteration with
enc of the miners a few years
ago struck and killed him with an iron bar
The spirit of the victim is also said TO be
haunting the mine and has been seen in
company with that of Carroll. The matter
leaked out to-day through the refusal of
some of the men to descend to the level
mentioned.

New Mexico and Arizona to be Admitted as
States

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-A Washington special
says: New Mexico and Arizona will prob
ably enter the union IS states before the
end of the present Congress. Utah will
also be an applicant, but the lingering
traces of Mormonism9will probably keep
her out. Enabling acts for New Mexico
and Arizona are likely to pass next spring
or summer, but the states will not come
into the union early enough to vote for
President next year. Bills for the admis-
sion of all three territories will be offered
at the first opportunity by their Delegates
in Congress. 1t is quite probable there will
be no opposition in either house to the ad
mission of New Mexico and Arizona if
they do not vote for President next fall.

the presiding officer was obliged to suspend
the sitting. On resuming, Ex-Premier
Crispi declared while in Office he caused
the land guarantees to be strictly observed.
Still, he did not regard it as statutory
law. However, it was in itself good law,
were it not that the Vatican came forward
as pretepder and thus rendered it dan

said Italy must defend herself on her own
