Mob Leader, Killsd-Garza
Back Of l.

DEMING, \. NJ, January 10.-Cour-
iers from Ascension, in the State OF
chihuahua, 100 miles south, report a
terrible uprising there Thursday. For
some time bad feeling has existed be-
tween the adherents Of the Church par
ty and the supporters Of the Dlaz Gov
ernment.
Affairs reached crisis Thursday,
when the election of the president OF
the town was held. Rafael Anchela,
who had twice held the Office, was elect
ed by a few votes. Anchela was dis
tasteful to the opposition on account OF
his efforts to inaugurate reform, and
threats were openly made against his
life.
About four o'clock in the afternoon a
mob OF over one hundred men suddenly
surrounded the city building and opened
fire. Anchela and his Secretary, n. De-
valas, were instantly killed.
The mob took possession OF the town
after hard fight with the friends OF
Anchela.
During the battle three revolutionists
were killed, and on both sides many
were wounded. France Sanzo, one OF
the leaders of the mob, was among the
killed. The impression. prevails that
this is a movement in support OF Cara,
Troops are reported to be Fastening
to the point of outbreak. In the mean
time the town is in possession OF the
mob, and further bloodshed Is expected.

The Epidemic as Yet shows No Sign OF
Abatement in New York.
New YORK, January 9.-The crank
epidemic shows as yet no sign OF abate-
ment. Three cranks were arraIgned In
Yorkvllle Police Court this morning,
each with a peculiar vagary. Tho
first, Frederick Rohkohl, former trav-
eleling salesman for the New
York Biscuit Company, was aFFesta4 o.
complaint Of Matthew Beard, a wealthy
contractor, who alleges that Rohkohl
has been following him around since
Sunday last. ringing his door bell AZ
night and insisting that the latter had
stolen his overcoat. He was committed
to Bellevue for examination as TO his
sanity.
Peter Doris was the second crank,
He imagined that two pretty young la
dies were awaiting him at Third
avenue elevated station and he haunted
it, saying that he heard their voices
calling him and declaring that the Off
GERS had hid them. He was also held.
Leopold Unger, French cook was
the third to be committed for examina-
tion. He stood before the Fifth Ave-
nue. Hotel, bowling and tossing bottles
I'm the air. Another evidence OF his In
sanity was his assertion that he loved
the whole police force.

PELTED THE PASTOR.
Exciting Scene In the American Church
at Nice.

NICE, January lO-A scandalous affair
occurred in the American Church last
Sunday in connection with the Ameri-
2an ouartette, which is one of the very
best in Nice and deservedly famous for
its excellent music. The tenor OF the
ouartette is an Englishman by the name
of Haggin, and last Sunday morning
inst after the services had commenced
Mr.. Haggin, who had evidently been
ENJOYING the New Years festivities,
crawled up the aisle three sheets in the
wind.
The rector. Rev. Mr.. Cornell, stopped
in his discourse and demonstrated with
the gentleman, whereupon Haggin be-
gan pelting the minister with hymn
books, swearing meanwhile in a fright
fnl manner and threatening to smash
the pastors head. Mr.. Cornell ordered
the verger to put the man out, but it
proved to be job that the verger was
not equal TO and he in turn called two
serVeants de vile, who soon took him
into the street.
They had reached the corner with
him, when he broke away from them,
rushed back into the church and up the
aisle, shouting that he was going to Kill
the pastor. The police followed him
and were compelled to handcuf him be-
fore he would be controlled, and then
took him to the lookup, where he re-
mained until to-day, when he was re-
leased, at the intervention Of the Brit
iSh Consul.
The Consul was very indignant that
British subject should be kept nearly
a week in prison without a trial. and
even some OF the congregation have ex-
pressed themselves of the opinion that
one night in such dirty place was pun
ishment enough for such an otfense.
Mr.. Cornell has very literally over
looked the offense, and offered to pay
Haggin's third class fare back to Eng
land.

Vermont is always at the head, wheth-
er the question is men or measures. The

OF those same men Gen. Sedgwick spoke
about, who, as Secretary of War, solved
the Indian question by enlisting the Red
Men as soldiers. 1t was the BANNER.

measure, almost as long ago as the mas
sacre of Gen. Custer and his command.

restrict immigration, the coming dues

Legislature passed resolutions asking

pendent NJ o charity, or are of idle and
vicious habits" December 22nd. these
Joint resolutions were introduced in
Congress and referred. Thus while the
subject is agitating the public mind, is
being discussed by the press. and bills

WAGES IN IRELAND.

A British blue book just issued con-
tains information as to wages in Ireland,
which ought to be of considerable inter
est to Irish-Americans, as we'll as to
Americans in general. This blue book
in question deals more especially with
the condition of agriculture. 1t informs
the public that the wages paid the agri-
cultural laborer IN Ireland vary from one
shilling and six pence-that is from
thirty-six cents to sixty cents day-in
summer, without lodging or board. 1t
is almost needless to say that, in winter,
the laborers suffer untold privations. 1t
is worth while to recall the fact that
Ireland owes the poverty of her agricul-
tural classes chiefly to the British policy
which destroyed the Irish manufactur-
ing industries and compelled the people
to resort almost wholly to the soil for
support, just as Great Britain has ell
deavored, but so far in vain, to destroy
the manufacturing industries Of America
in order that British manufacturers
might flourish at the expense of the
American wage earner.-N. Y. Press.

The Pope's utterances on the European
situation is interesting. According to a
telegram from Rome, dated Christmas
Day, we learn that all the Cardinals at
present in Rome waited on the Pope Fri
day and rendered him the usual Christ
mas congratulations. In reply to the
good wishes for the church and himself
The Pope said that the signs of a gather
storm were visible to ali observers ds
moral and religious conditions. The
European situation was pregnant with
ruin and diasster and this condition could
only be brought TO an end by the healing
virtues of the church, which herself was
being violently assailed. In the course
of his remarks the Pope referred to the
Free Masons, whom ho condemned as a
malignant sect who were never true to
the people, but who, unfortunately, were
supported by the government. The Pope
concluded Ivy bestOwlng the apostolic
blessing upon the whole world.
