THE RESPONSIBILITY OF RULERS.

Within day attempts have been made
to assassinate the rulers of two nations
Humbert of Italy and President Barda of
Uruguay. The offence in the first case
was committed by an idle workman, a
man who could not get employment; in
the second the would-be slayer was more
despicable character-a political thug.
At almost regular intervals the mania for
regicide breaks out and usually somebody
has to suffer. 1t Is less than three years
ago that the amisble President of France
was killed by an assassin. Our own
country has suffered twice at the hands OF
such creatures, yet it seems that the spirit
that prompts assassination of rulers Is less
rife in this than in any other country Of
like Importance. President Cleveland, il
was said, found it necessary to surround
himself with guards and most of the other
presidents have expressed more or less ap-
prehension at times.
This mania, (for it is seldom else) is the
outgrowth probably, of misunderstand-
ing of conditions. Most men of inferior
mental attainments are prone to lay the
blame for hardship on the shoulders that
are least designed to carry it. Kings and
Presidents, as a rule, are not responsible
for much that is imputed to them. Law
making, personal responsibility and that
peculiar agent that we call fate are gen
orally at the root of most of our troubles.
To an ignorant mind the thought that the
King must be all-powerful and, conse-
quently, all-responsible, appeals forcibly.
Let the world go wrong and the king is
to blame. This childish idea has been
taught the people, however, by the very
rulers whose lives are endangered as a re-
suit, for 1t is an outgrowth OF the incendiary
teaching that monarchs are divine. Once
let this insiduous idea get possession of
subject and he is likely to be imbued with
the conviction that he is divinely appoint
ed, also, to serve the DEGREES Of Providence
by removing one who is unfaithful to his
alleged trust. There is today and always
have been too much superstition in the
world and 1t has worked harm to govern
ments an well as individuals.
Give the world healthy minds and
healthy understandings and there will be
less of this kind of crime. Destroy the
idea that are of divine appointment and
You also kill the idea that they are more
mankind.

THE TRisUNE,s POPULARITY

Pawtucket people are good buyers If you
reach them in home medium. THE EVE
MING TRIBUNE reaches the class of people
who do their buying in Pawtucket, and
the crowded condition of our columns to-
day is evidence that the merchants of the
city are eognizant of this fact. The TRIB-
UNE is the most profitable medium for ad-
vertisers in the city.
A popular afternoon paper-because it's
clean and newsy, and profitable to adver-
tisers on account of It's popularity.
The success of The EVENING TRIBUNE
for the past five months has been phenom-
enal, and the demand for advertising
space has been so constant that better fa-
cilities have been needed for some time
past. We ask the indulgence Of our read
ers for short time for this infringement
on our reading columns. Within months
ii ne the new perfecting press will be in
position and running order, and then the
management will be In position to place
before the public the new TRIBUNE, which,
in enlarged form, is bound to win addi-
tional favor at the hands of the people of
Pawtucket and its environs.

BODY RECOVERED
A Sad Drowning Accident
Occurred Last Evening.
Young Arthur McFayden Was the
Victim of the Fatality.
Body Drlfted Into Sargents Trench Where Il
Was Discovered This Morning.

The body of Arthur McFayden, the
three year-old son Of David McFayden of
SIG Main street, who was drowned yester-
day afternoon in the river, was found this
morning shortly before O'Clock by
Charles Wood, the overseer of the braiding
room in the LeFavour mill.
Mr.. Wood was not engaged in the search
and the discovery was made by accident.
Under the mill runs Sargent's trench, and
covered with grating, which can be re-
moved for the purpose of taking out ac-
cumuated rubbish, dead leaves and the
like.
This morning Mr.. Wood was engaged in
sounding the trench which at this point is
about feet deep, when he struck some
thing with his pole. A closer investiga-
of a child.
Ohicer Sword was detailed to attend to
the. case, and removed the body from the
water and it was then taken to the home o
the parents on North Main street.
The sad accident occurred about
o'clock yesterday afternoon, while the
was playing on the banks Of the river near
Blackstone avenue. The child left home
in company with George Read, Eddie
Hughes and Willie Mckenzie, boys of his
own age.
The boys disregarded the warnings of
their parents to keep away from the river
bank and amused themselves throwing
stones. They were having a good time
when the McFayden boy in an effort to
throw stone greater distance than his
companions lost his balance and fell into
the water.
His young companions became panic
stricken, and fed from the scene OF the ac-
cident to their homes, and said nothing
to their parents about the matter.
When supper time came and Arthur did
not come home his mother went to the
home of the Reads, and was told by
George that Arthur had fallen in the
river.
This was confirmed by young Mckenzie,
and Mrs. McFayden hastened home and
informed her husband of what she had
heard.
Mr.. Mcfayoen al ONCE "eh' W 'he
scene of the accident, and waded as far as
he dared In search Of the body.
Being unsuccessful he notified tbs police,
and Acting Captain Vananda detailed
Officers Cooper and Schneider to assist
him.
The party, assisted by Edward Carr,
dragged the river with graphing irons for
three hours, and then gave up the search
for the night.

The case was argued on Monday last, ano
the decision of the court is in substance as
follows:
''The court finds that while there may
have been hearsay testimony offered, that
there was also other competent testimony
and that certioiari proceedings are for the
purpose of correcting errors of law, and
not to review the finding of facts.
"The court presumes that the evidence
offered was sufficient for conviction, and
irther, that the Board of Aldermen had
full jurisdiction to dismiss the officer"
