look for where we find so many of Ire

fully unsettled condition of Ireland
politically during SO many centuries has
had the effect of greatly lessening the
amount of matter produced by Irish
pens, but in many instances the desire
for freedom had resulted in some
sparkling productions. Having men,

EXECUTION OF A PRIEST.


Able hrunsau Bshsaded for Robbery,
Arson and Murder.
LAVAL. France, Aug. s0.-Abbe Bruneau
was executed at 8 O'Clock this morning
Bruneau was awake when the officers en-
tered his coll to tell him that 1t was time
to prepare for the execution. When he
was dressed the condemned man heard
mass and received communion. He prayed
the pardon of God and men for any faults
he might have committed, and also asked
that the clergy might pardon him for
breaking his vows Of chastity. He then
informed the attendants that he was
ready. He showed great GOODNESS until he
arrived at the foot of the scaffold, whsr
his fortitude seemed to leave him.
An enormous crowd was present, and
the people cheered when the criminals
head fell into the basket.
Bruneau left two page letter in which
he protested his innocence of the crimes
with which he was charged. The con
demned man, though regularly or
dained priest, was convicted in July last
of murder, arson and robbery.
The order for the execution was not re
ceived until 8 o'clock last evening. When
1t became known TO the people 1t caused
general rejoicing. A crowd began II
gather at the scene of the execution al
nightfall, and 1000 persons had assem-
bled by midnight. They surged about
the jail singing songs which had the eter
nally repeated refrain: "Bruneau. 1t is his
head we want" and shouting coarse joke,
or roaring under the prisoners cell win
dow.
All the windows overlooking the scen'
Of execution were lighted and crammet
with spectators, who beguiled the time ii
drinking and laughing. The scene wa,
one Of riotous and brutal rejoicing. which
was continued until the knife had fallen
when the mob mum bered about 5000.

THE DUTCH DEFEATS.
They Are Causing Great Excite
ment Throughout Holland.
THE LOSS OVER FIVE HUNDRED.

In the Latest Engagement Near Mata-
ram, Capital of the Island Of Lombok.
the Troops Were Slain from Ambush.
Darkness Saved the Survivors.
THE HAGUE, Aug. 8o.-Later advices
received from Lombok say that the at
tacks upon the different columns of Dutch
troops were the result Of preconcerted
plan upon the part of the leading native
chiefs of the Balinese natives. Colonel
Van Pabst's column, after seeing the
promises Of the chiefs executed, was re-
turning to Tjakra Negra when it was at
tackled while fording the River Babak by
the Balinese, whose hostility was unex-
pected. The column only succeeded in re-
gaining the road to Tjakra after sharp
fighting and heavy losses.
After harassing retreat the Van Pabst
Icolumn was approaching Tjakra Negra
without seeing any further signs of the
enemy, when suddenly from the walls of
that place, from every loophole and every
point Of vantage, hailstorm of bullets
was poured into the column of Dutch
troops. The latter were completely taken
by surprise, and began to falter.
To make matters worse the Balinese had
no sooner opened fire upon the head of the
column than its rear was also exposed to
a terrible rifle fire. Thus, the advance
and the retreat Of the column were alike
cut off and impossible. The Dutch troops
were completely caught in a rat trap am
bush and had 1t not been that nightfall
came to their assistance there is little
doubt that the entire detachment
would have been massacred. As 1t was,
under cover Of the darkness, few bodies
of exhausted soldiers, many of them badly
wounded, succeeded in reaching Ampe-
nan. .5
The Balinese captured a quantity of
arms, ammunition and provisions In these
engagements and also captured the guns
and effects Of General Van Huns force,
they having been abandoned in order to
save the wounded.
The news of the loss sustained by the
Dutch forces sent to punish the rajah OF
Lombok has caused great excitement
throughout Holland and it is believed that
when the losses of the Van Pabst and
Bylevelt columns are added to those sus-
tanned by the Vetter columns, the loss in
killed, wounded and missing will be over
500 men.
1t is admitted, even In military circles,
that the almost simultaneous defeat OF
the three columns of troops is the most
severe reverses which the Dutch army
has sustained at the hands of savage
troops in all the wars ever fought. The
people are clamoring for the latest news
from Lombok, and the government is
urged to promptly dispatch the strongest
reinforcements possible to that island.
The governor general of the Dutch Indies,
General Van Der Wick, has summoned
council of the naval and military COM
manders, who are determining upon the
decisive measures to be taken in order to
wipe out the defeat of the Dutch troops.
