came, tearing out the end OF the boiler
and feariully scalding the boy mention'

PARIS, June 12.-President Loubet
has had his revenge for last Sundays
outrage at Auteuil. When he drove to
Longchamps to attend the Grand Prix
he was the hero of a great popular
demonstration, expressing itself in one
form or another along the whole route
from the Elysee palace to the race
course
He remained only a quarter Of an
hour, just long enough to witness the
race, and having congratulated the
owner of the winner returned to the
palace, where he arrived at o'clock
without special incident.
Longchamps resembled a military
camp. Battalions of Infantry, squad
rons of dragons and Republican
Guards were distributed all around the
course. 1t is estimated that there were
5000 soldiers and police under arms.
NJ. Loubet practically drove through
a double hedge of Steel A line of in
fantry even stood around the race
course between the public and the
course, on which no one was allowed to
walk between the races, while several
republican guards patrolled the course
