SANTO DOMINGO REVOLUTION.
The Insurgents Again Beaten By Govern
ment Forces,


New York, August ia dispatch t.
the Herald from San Domingo says:
Another invasion from Hayti was at
tempted Tuesday. The government
forces met the insurgents near Monte
Christie, and after lively fighting the in
vaders We're dispersed, and some, it Is
reported, were captured. This may ena
the trouble in that section, as the revo-
lutionary movement apparently lacks
organization, and is sporadic in nature.
The revolutionists have so far carried
on only guerrilla warfare, and the
government is therefore not dismayed
by the outbreaks. Reports from the in
terror say that everything is quiet.
During the celebrations incident to
the national holiday there was dem
onstration this evening in Plaza Colon
in this city by the younger citizens
against the government Speeches cal
culated to excite the populace were
| made and a proclamation distributed
This demanded that the present officials
| retire in favor Of new men, but dis
claimed any intention of accomplishing
the change by force. Several leaders
were arrested, and the trouble seems
now at an end, but the incident shows
that discomfort exists. People generally
are hopeful that the civil troubles vii
soon be settled.

New York, August ia dispatch to
the Herald from San Juan says: Com
munication has now been restored in
the direction of Ponce as far as Caguas.
The whole country has been devastated
in every section. The hurricane de-
stroyed all towns and villages. People
whose homes were wrecked are wander
ing about seeking food and shelter. In
towns the stencil of decaying bodies un-
der the ruins of homes and public build
ings Is almost unbearable. Yabucca will
be set on fire in order that an epidemic
may be avoided.
DR.. Altman, of Arecabo, writes that up
to August l3 no assistance of any kind
had reached there. There Is an almost
unbearable stencil, and unless aid comes
within a few days. he declares, there
must follow fearful epidemic 1t is
certain that many bodies are lying in a
state of putrefaction under the ruins,
but it is impossible to find laborers to
lean up the towns. At Ponce there has
been a public protest against the negli-
sence of the mayor, and he has been
forced to resign.
Reports from Naguabo Corozal,
Aguadala, Comerce and Guayanilla are
that the towns have been destroyed,
and the municipalities are without the
means to relieve distress. San Juan, too
is likely to be threatened with an epi-
demic.
The captain Of an in coming steamer
reports that fifteen miles off and drift
ing shoreward there are innumerable
bodies of human beings and cattle, min
sled indiscriminately with the wreck
age of houses. The town Of Maunabo
has been completely demolished. The
highest ruin left stands only 2 feet
above the ground There We're many
casualties from the flooding of the river,
md 100 persons and many children have
been drowned.
Comerce Is a total ruin. The hurri-
,ane lasted twelve hours. Half of the
population gathered in the only build
ing left standing.

Well Answered.

In the early part Of this century there
Iived in Nantucket young Quakeress
whose wit caused many a ripple in the
demure circle of the Friends.
When this. pretty Martha attended
yearly meeting in Newport at the age
OF 10, her youthful spirits brought her
occasional grave looks from the elders,
although her real goodness of heart was
never questioned.
One evening, during the session of
yearly meeting, Martha was the center
of group Of young people gathered
near the windows of the parlor in the
boarding house where some Of the
Friends lodged for the time. The young
people were playing the simple and
amusing game Of humorous defni-
tions." Martha's wit caused such fire.
quent laughter that solemn faced per-
son rose from his seat at the OTTER end
of the room and asked, in a loud, stern
voice:
martha, can thee give me the def,
milton of gravity?"
The pretty Quakeress colored at this
public and unnecessary rebuke, but
after scarcely perceptible hesitation,
she answered demurely:
81 am not able to give thee a defni-
ton of my own, Friend Brown, but
perhaps that of De la Rochefoucauld
will suit thee. He says that gravity is
a mysterious carriage Of the body, in
vented to cover the defects of the
mind. youths Companion.
