ALaIERs, Nov. 27.-The great French
cardinal, Lavigerie, is dead. Cardinal
Charles Martial Allemand Lavigerie,
apostolic delegate for Equatorial Africa,
the Sahara and soudan, archbishop OF
Alglars and Carthage and primate OF
Africa, has been called the apostle to
the Africans, because Of his devotion
TO the cause of freedom on the Dark
Continent
He was born at Bayonne, France, in
1925. Flo gained worldwide fame. not
only as one of the most distinguished
prelutes Of the Roman church, but more
especially on account OF his efforts to
reconcile the Papacy to the French
republic. 1t is through him that the
present pope was led to issue his famous
statement that the Catholics of France
should recognize and obey the republic,
and substantially that there was no
cause for difference between the church
and the republican institutions.
By decree OF March, 1868, he was des-
ignated as bishop OF Nancy, and by n Ia
ter decree Of January u. 1867, he was
transferred to the See Of Algiers, which
was erected into an archbishopric. He
was afterward promoted to the rank Of
cardinal, and has gained worldwide
fame, not only as one OF the most dis
tinguished prelates of the Roman
church, but more especially on account
of his efforts to reconcile the papacy to
tho French republic.
Cardinal Lavigerie's influence is be-
lieved also to have had something to do
with shaping the pope's favorable atti-
tude toward republican institutions in
the United States and throughout the
world.
Cardinal Lavigerie was an earnest
opponent TO the slave trade, and de-
voted much OF his time to tho agitation
OF this question.
He has been one of the most active,
aggressive and broad-minded OF the
pope's l~ieutenants, and was exceedingly
powerful in governmental circles in
France and elsewhere. BY many it was
thought he would be the next pope.

WEL1srox, O., Nov. 2z.-Yesterday af.
t~ernoon, as a party OF men were passing
along an unused street in the east part
of the city, their attention was at
tracted by b~lood-curdling cries emanat-
ing from Tommy Cunningham's place,
commonly known as the Bears Nest.
The men ran in, and just as they en-
tered, Tom Shinn emerged from the
door, the blood streaming down his
face. On the floor lie the form OF John
McCaferty, who was to all ap.
pearances dead. No other persons
were in the building. On the floor
beside McCaferty lay q good sized
piece OF iron covered with blood and
hair, and he had clinched in his hand
the neck OF u broken beer bottle. A
physician was summoned, and exami-
nation found the man to be horrible
pounded up. His head and face were
beaten into a jelly, and for two hours
he remained unconscious. Finally,
with the aid of r~estoratives, he rallied
to some extent, though he is still in a
very critical coneition. Shinn was
afterwards arrested, and is now con-
fined in the city prison. 1t has devel.
oped that the two men became involved
in a drunken brawl with the above
results. 1t may prove another case OF

ST., was announced to be private, a

assembled at the quiet home in West
Tnscarawas street. Floral tributes were
numerous, some OF them elaborate, and
all strikingly beautiful. They-were sent
by friends in the city, from the de-
ceased's old friends in Eastern Ohio,
from Columbus and other places. At

u vote of the people'of the prohibitory

from seventeen out OF the tifLy-two

These figures are considered more en-
couraging than from the same counties

a great many counties to be heard from,
if the re.submission sentiment gains in
