Successor to the Spot.

Those little beauty spots on ladies'
wells, which were supposed to look like
patches of court plaster on the fair skin,
have found successor at last. The spot
fashion had its drawbacks. The veil was
liable to twist around, and no matter
how carefully that spot was located it
was almost sure to work around so that
it came on the tip of the wearer's nose.
Its successor is dainty spray of flowers
or leaf worked on the gauze. One is

In MEMORY


OF Robert Ensene aIentzer.
The boy we loved 50 well,
To earth has bid adieu,
And gone to brighter scenes beyond
Where now he lives anew.
Escaped from all the sins Of earth,
Its sorrows and its cares;
With angels now in glory bright
Their happy lot he shares.
Then do not sigh for his return,
For he is happy now
Heart-aches and tears are there I'M
known
No sorrow clouds his brow.
Rather rejoice that he has gone,
And weep for those who stay;
His is 4 happy, happy home,
Theirs an uncertain way.
The little children Jesus loves,
For he has bid them come;
Robert Eugene there waits for us
To bid US welcome home.

DA FONSECA RESIGNS.
Z REVOLT IN RIO JANEIRo 6ReAKs
HIS POWER.

Vic. President PeixottO Takes HIS
Place Peaceful RevOlutlon-The
brazilian Republic to Be Reest"O-
lIshed.
There is exciting news from Brazil.
Dictator Fonseca has been forced to re-
sign. and the censorship on kilograms has
been partially removed. The spirit OF
insurrection had been smoldering IN no
Janeiro for several days. The rising
came to a head when the navy led IN
open revolt and demanded Fonseca's res
ignatiOn. ,
A deputation of a4val officers waited
on General Da Fonseca and stated that
his acts as dictator had created profound
dissatisfaction among the people of the
country, and that, if he refused to ac-
cede to the popular request for his reslg'
nation, they would not be answerable for
the consequences.
After a short interview General Da
Fonseca issued manifesto, announcing
his resignation of the presidency of Bra
zil in favor of Floria.o Peixotto, stat
ing in his manifesto that his determi-
nation to retire from Office was taken
for the purpose of averting civil war
The army was quiescent and made nc
move in this latest development in the
changing politics of Brazil.
A riotous crowd destroyed the offices OF
two government newspapers.
General Floriano Peixotto, the new
president of Br. Zil, is one of the most
eminent men of the republic. He rose
to the rank of adjutant general of the
army under the empire. In April, 109O,
he was made minister of war, in success
sion to Senior Benjamin Constant, who
was transferred to another department
because the soldiers were clamoring for
chief who had been more closely iden-
titled with military affairs.
He after served as minister of finance,
and in January last was made provisional
vice president under Fonseca.
The overthrow of Fonseca is a practical
triumph of the Congressional party, and
it is believed will lead to the early re-
establishment of constitutional govern
ment under the republic.
General Peixotto issued proclamation
reconvening congress and looking to
restoration of constitutional government.
A dispatch states that the people of the
Province of Rio Grande do Sui think
that the changes arising from the deposi-
ton of Marshal da Fonseca are not radi-
cal enough, and new complications are
feared.

RALLY REPUBLICANS.

The BEE takes this occasion to
request all republicans who are
favor of the right of suffrage to
elect no man to the next republi-
can central committee who is not
iD in favOrof primary elections.
The national committee diduot
place the election of mem
bers of the central committee in
the hands OF Que mau but gave
that power to the central commit
tee to decide and any violation OF
that will be sufficient grounds for
every republican organic alton aud
district president to reurganlze the
republican party III this city. The
republicans don't propose to be
bulIdtz-d nor dtfrauded by an or
gaDized mob.
We have some good material
from which We can select IA repre-,
sentative delegation. There are
such men an Daniel Cahlll, Col.
Haz ltOn, Col. JnO. w. Douglass,
Col, Brltton, NJ NJ. Parker, Fred.
Douglass. n. Il. Quincy and others.
The national convention would
not hesitate TO admit such men.
Rally republicans and do Your
duty.

Apple Jacks Big Crou.

New Jersey is gathering huge crop of
applejack, for which it stands preemi-
nent. The yield of apples has been
larger this year than has been known
since 1870. Consequently nearly every
distillery in the State is now turning out
this potent liquid as fast as possible, and
it is estimated that at least 10, 900 barrels
will be made in the State this year. The
flavor of Jersey liquor is said by experts
to be superior to that made anywhere
else in the country. and there is always a
demand for it.

WILD ANIMAL NEAR WHEELING.
Hunters Started Out After Il. but the
Fate OF the Dogs Scared Them.

Hunters Started Out After Il. but th,
Fate OF the Dogs Scared Them.
The farmers and hunters of Hancock
county, w. Va, are excited and alarmed
over the depredations of mysterious
wild animal, which has been feeding
recently upon calves, sheep, pigs, and
other small stock. It has been seen sew.
sral times lately, and is described as re-
sembling panther, but no one has We,
succeeded in getting shot at it.
The beasts foraging expeditions are
made mostly at night, but it does not
turn its back against a plump piece Of
mutton in broad daylight The women
and children refuse to leave the protec.
ton of their homes during the day and
the men go armed about their work.
A party was organized to hunt the
animal down, and went to the woods
where it was expected to be accompanied
by dogs.
The dogs found the beast, which. in
defending itself, tore three of them to
pieces and wounded a number of others.
The hunters heard the noise of the con.
aict and sensibly concluded that they had
not Lost any panther, and left with all
possible expedition for their homes. The
panther is still there and will probably
remain undisturbed until larger party
is formed for its capture.
