insurgents engaged the government in
battle at Coquimbo and were defeated
with great loss of life. All the insurgent
vessels took part in the engagement. The
attacks, it is stated, were resolved or by
the insurgents when they received the
news of the Paris decision in regard to the
new cruisers just completed in that
country. Owing to this defeat and the
growing strength of the government
great Generalization exists among the
insurgents.

PARIS, July 14.-Paris was thrown into
a state of wild excitement yesterday by
the report that President Carnot had been
shot. This rumor proved upon investiga-
ton to be untrue, but there was good
foundation for the report, and indeed all
that prevented it's being true was the bad
craftsmanship of Carnot's assailant. The
president was present at the ceremonies
of the official opening of new thorough
fare. the Avenue de la Republique, where
he received an enthusiastic welcome.
Enter, wild-Eyed Assassin.
Suddenly a man, wild-eyed and making
insane gestures, forced his way through
the crowd and pushed past the soldiers on
duty and at about the spot where the cere-
monies were taking place. This man
rushed up to the carriage in which the
president had driven up to the new ave-
nue. and fired pistol at M. Carnot AS
he did so the man shouted, CPL prove
that there are more bastiles to be demol-
ished." President Carnot was greatly
alarmed at what appeared to.be direct
attempt upon his life, but he was unhurt
and soon regained his entire presence of
mind.

The President, who was not in the least

Carnot has been extremely fortunate in
the two or three incidents of this kind that

From the account of the incident received

discharged by the so-called assassin was

Rev. T. B. Wells Buried in a Man
ner Quiet as His Life.


There was another funeral in Mime
apolis Yesterday, one that carried to the
hearts of those who attended mex
irresistible sorrow.> Rev. t. B. Wells
was a Iovable man. None knew him
that did not regard him as warm per-
sonal friend. Small wonder then that
St. Marks church was filled to over
flowing by those who had known the
dead preacher in life. The funeral
services. while under the direction OF
ST. Marks church, were attended by
Zion commandery, Masonic, in body.
The deceased was an hUnOred member
of the order.
The services began promptly at $50.
W. s. Marshall, of Omaha, presided at
the organ, and Mrs. Frank Larrabee.
Mrs. Phoebe Eretts, Ray Finel and
Weed Munro furnished the music.
Bishop NJ. \. Gilbert, who had come all
the way fIOm the East for the purpose,
conducted the services, assisted by Rev.
c. E. Hixon. of Grace church. The
services were exceedingly simply. Only
three hymns were sung, Lead Kindly
Light. Just As l Am" and 'Hark,
Hark! Ny Soul ~
BishOp Gilbert made a few remarks
OF the regular service. His words we're
simple. but earnest. He touched upon
the character of the dead man, his sim
pIe tastes, his quiet habits. his unos-
tentatious manner of life. He spoke OF
DIR. Wells as the highest type OF
Christian, a man who did that which his
hand found to do. and did it earnestly.
| There was no sham, no DTetense about
| him. He was content to labor in the
Lords vineyard wherever there was
| work to be done. He also referred
! to his death at sea. Dr.. Wells had gone
! away hoping to regain his health.
| When he learned there was no hope fol
! him, he was anxious TO return and end
| his DAYS amid the scenes where he had
labored so long. His thoughts reverted
| to the old home. 1t was while on the
| broad ocean, amid the surrounding
best calculated to draw the mind OF
man from things terrestrial and elevate
| them to the contemplation of things
celestial, he was taken away, and the
| veil separating him from the mysteries
of the great beyond was rlven and
| drawn aside.
After the services at the church the
funeral was very simple. The body
was followed to the cemetery by the i'm
| mediate members of the family alone
There were no flowers by special re
ouest of Mrs. Wells. The casket was ;
