The Augusta cadets have returned
from their second tour of duty at Camp
Scrbner and they all had very d.

into the head of Water street and all
along the r9ute large crowds lined the
sidewalks and watched the boys as
they marched past. They showed
signs of fatigue near the last end of
it, but still kept their lines in good
shape.
\ halt was made in front of Aliens
block while Maahai Morse and his
officers cleared Haymarket square.
The march was then resumed and the
cadets filed into the square in skrmis!l
order. Here in answer to the buglo
calls they performed all the evolutions
of an attack on an enemy'S breast
works. The charge up the hill to the
railroad track was the sign for n
hearty burst of applause.

JUDGMENTS SENTENCE.
The Assassin of Empress of Austria to
Serve Life Imprisonment for the Crime,

Geneva, Switzerland, Nov. 1O.-The
Italian anarchist, Luigi Luccheni, who
stabbed and killed Empress Elizabeth
Of Austria on Sept 10 in this city, was
placed on trial here today Luccheni
bowed politely to the court and the
public, and answered the preliminary
questions, through an interpreter, in a
clear, strong voice. The public prose-
cutor, in reciting the circumstances of
the crime, said there was no clear evil
dence that Luccheni had accomplices,
except in the fact of the prisoners own
silence on certain points which, as he
in his declarations had not spared him
self, could only be intended to shield
accomplices The evidence of an cleo
trician, boatman and a cabman, who
assisted in Luccheni's capture, was
then taken.
Luccheni admitted that he came to
Geneva in order to kill the Duke of
Orleans, but, he added, he arrived too
late. The prisoner then remarked that
in spite of this, the Duke of Orleans
would be killed within a year.
The prisoner also said that if he had
possessed so francs on the morning of
the assassination, instead of killing the
Empress of Austria he would have
started for Italy, with the intention of
killing King Humbert. He added:
1T does not matter, however, as
another will kill Humbert shortly"
Luccheni was sentenced to rigorous
Imprisonment for life
