AN ATTEMPT
To Lynch Emile lola by HOwling Mob
Friends Stood BY Him.

PARIS, Feb 9.-NOvelist lola came
near paying the penalty of his fight
for Dreyfus with his life at the hands
of mob when court adjourned Tues
day. There was a big crowd outside
the lower court, and as the people
were leaving the building a man cried,
''Vive lola! Down with France!' He
was Immediately arrested.
A tremendous rush followed. NJ.
lola, on emerging from the jury door,
was recognized and obliged to return
and seek refuge in the robing rooms,
the doors of which were then locked.
The crowd remained outside, yelling,
''Consquez Zola!'' ETC., led by a number
of young barristers, in their robes,
who roughly handled M. Zola's sympa-
thizers, until detachment of repub-
iican guards cleared the approaches
to the court.
M. lola then emerged, pale and trem-
bling, and the moment he appeared on
the stairs leading to the courtyard
there was an immense clamor and
shouts of down with Zola!' Long
live Zola!' and Death to Zola!" the
last cry dominating the others. The
novelist had difficulty in keeping his
feet amid the surging crowd.
In the meanwhile the police, misun-
Outstanding their orders, closed the
gates, and M. lola thus found himself
inside the courtyard, surrounded by a
bowling, threatening mob. The police
were powerless, and for a moment ii
looked as though he would be lynched
with the friends who formed his body
guard.
His friends rallied around him and
eventually the gates were reopened
and the police, having been re-enforc,
ed, escorted NJ. lola to the street,
while the majority of the mob was
confined in the courtyard, shrieking
threats against the novelist, who
eventually entered cab and drove
quickly away.

WASHINGTON, Feb 9.-The cruiser

he was compelled to do this to protect
the United States consulate.
The rebels captured the town on
Saturday, and the government forces
are now throwing up rifle pits in the
suburbs
This is the terminus of the cable
station and Leutz was compelled to
take this move to keep the cable open.
This is also near the western termi-
nus of the proposed canal. The United
States consular agent is Charles Hol-
mann.
Tuesday afternoon another cable
gram was received at the navy depart
ment telling of the progress of the
revolutionary movement at that end OF
the Nicaragua canal. The captain
said that he had landed force for the
protection of the United States con-
sulate, and as the government forces
had given notice of their intention to
lombard the town, he had taken on
the Alert all of the women and chill
dren who cared for refuge. The bonn
bardment began Monday and in the
end the rebels were driven out of the
town, which was entered and taken
possession of by the government
troops. The rebels retreated toward
the interior of the country.

LET EVERYBODY DECORATE.

Omaha has special incentive to
make the coming Ak-Sar-Ben festivities
eclipse erything in the nature of simi-
lar gala displays ever before made. The
Ak-SarBen, it must be remembered, is
n permanent institution. This year it
has the advantage of the exposition as
a concurrent drawing card, and its
parades are sure to be witnessed by
hundreds of thousands of strangers who
have not participated in the festivals of
previous years.
What is wanted is to impress as many
of these visitors as possible with such
good opinion of Omaha and its people
as will make them look forward to at
tending the next Ak-Sar-Ben demonstra-
ton and strengthen their business ana
social relations with this city.
The success of the Ak-SarBe festivl-
ties, however, depends largely upon the
cooperation of the citizens of Omaha.
The effectiveness of the parades will be
enhanced or marred by the character
of the illuminations and decorations
along the line Of march. In the past
the city has done most creditably in
both these directions, the street illumi-
nations being not only attractive but
unique, and the decorations on the
whole artistic and tasteful. Business
men and householders should feel them
selves spurred on, therefore, to show
proper appreciation OF the occasion by
decorating their places and entering into
the spirit of the demonstration. These
decorations should be retained in place
during the peace jubilee week that is
to follow, when everyone viii want tC

For what he thinks is right,
Who shoulders his gun and answers the
call
When his country has battles to fight,
Is a hero and merits n hero'S reward,
His praise should be earnestly sung;
But another who shines in the sight of the
Lord
Is the man who can hold his tongue.
The man with the silvery voice who can
win
For the cause that is Just in debate,
And the man who sees danger, yet bravey

While others in agony wait,
Are men who invoke the worlds wonder

Their praises are earnestly sung;
But the braveSt of mortals that ever saw
Was a man who could hold his tongue.
Weave chaplets for those who have won In
the fray
Who have struck that the slave may be
free;
For the men who brush old superstitions
away
And for those who are heroes at sea;
But there is another who merits a place
Among people whose praises are sung
The heart-broken man with a smile on his
face
Who can suffer and hold his tongue.

LIQUOR QUESTION IN CANADA

Next Thursday the people of Canada
the sale of liquors in the Dominion For
a month or more an active campaign has
been prosecuted and it is said that the
result is in considerable doubt, the fact
that some of the provinces have at one
time or another voted for prohibition
giving the temperance advocates much
encouragement, while the opponents or
the movement derive satisfaction from
the other fact that neither of the prov
inces followed the vote by prohibitory
legislation.
Estimates of the Canadian liquor traf
| fic show that the expenditure for intoX
icants last year in the Dominion
| amounted to $40,0O0,00O, which is about
$S per capita of the population. These
estimates are based on the quantity of
liquors imported or paying excise tax and
make no allowance for subsequent dilu-
| ton, so that the amount spent by con-
sumers is undoubtedly much larger. The
| figures computed by the internal reve-
nue. department show that in the last
three decades there has been a practi-
cally continuous decrease in the amount
of spirits and wine consumed and an
Increase in the consumption of beer. or
the $40000,O00 spent last year for liquors
in the Dominion it is estimated that S15,-
100000 was the cost of the liquor and
500, 100000 the expenses and profits OF
distillation.
In the coming election 1t Is hardly to
be expected that all of the provinces
will vote one way, or that in all of them
the affirmative vote will be so large as
to obviate the objection that it does not
represent the majority of those entitled
to vote. In either case an excuse will
be afforded, as heretofore, for the gov
ernment failing to introduce prohibi.
tory law, or for the parliament to reject
it. The constitutional objection has al
ready been raised that the question is
one properly belonging to the provinces
and that the federal government exceeds
its powers in attempting TO deal with it
1.-THE probability is that the prohibitionsts
will get nothing more out of the plebis
cite than the moral influence of large
vote for the prohibition of the liquor
traffic
