ident Gen. Wenceslao Figuereom assum-
ed control Of the government of the Do
minion.
Several attempts have been made be-
fore to take the life OF President Heu-
reaux, but they were frustrated. On one
occasion while passing through the arch
ed entrance to the palace between lines
of guards his quick eye caught c1r OF the
soldiers, who appeared to lower his rifle
IN his direction. Quietly pulling re-
yolver he shot the man des 4 in his tracks,
passed on to his private Office, where he
gave orders to remove dead man lying

Gen. Heureaux was born in Porto
Plata in 1916 and served in the war
against Spain from 1868 TO 1874 Later
he was put at the head of the advanced
Dominicans, who sought to improve their
country by inducing foreign capital to To-
cate on the island. As he advanced all
the wealthy inhabitants joined his forces
and when he arrived at the gates of the
historic city Of Santo Domingo he was
chosen president of the republic and sery-
ed his term of four years. At the ex,
piration of every four years an electoral

president for the following term, but
owing to Gen. Heureauxs popularity
and ability he has always been unani-
mously reelected and was serving his

FRENCH Amy IS DISCIPLINED.
Gen. de Negrier's Renewal Meant as
Wnrning to the MilitasN.

Gen. de NeGrier's Removal Meant as
Warning to the Misitasy.
The removal Of Gen. de Negrier from
the French council Of war is the tapsi
important moye yet taken by the ,sew
Government in the cause of discipline.
II may be regarded as the supreme test
Of the Governments strength. The ma
sionalist papers are Wild with rage over
the latest affront" to the army, which
they say has been beheaaed Many per-
sons even who are supporting the new
ministry think that this was step OF
doubtful wisdom, as likely TO goad the
militar to desperation.
Gen. de Negrier was at no time mixed
up in the Drlyfus affair. He has distin-
guished himself for bravery and skill as
a soldier aud general and was on the
road TO succeed 60 the position OF gener-
alissiiuo Of the forces. Hs disgrace is
meant as d warning to the military not
to organize conspiracies against the re-
public. This was, ina way, De Negrier's
offense
The Government learned Of his meth
DDS through an address made BY Col.
Bertrand to his officers at Auxonne
shortly after the departure Of Gen de
Negrier from visit of Inspection II the
garrison there Col. Bertrand said;
Gentlemen, owing TO the attacks upon
the army, the generals of the council OF
war have determined upon the day after
the conclusion of the Dreyfus trial to
wait upon the Government and demand
that these attacks cease. If they do not,
the generals will act.
Col. Bertrand was summoned by the
war Office 10 explain these words, and he
said that be made the address in accord
anee with De Negrier's order. The war
council subsequently told the Govern
ment they did not share the sentiment

Many Divines Make the Dead Infide1
the Subject of ermona.
The life and death of Col. Robert G..
Ingersoll has furnished the theme for
many of the sermons preached through
out the length and breadth of the coun-
try, and, In fact, all civilized countries of
the globe.
Chicago.--na3 he not met in his early
years with the cold, formal and repelling
restraints that false conceptions of re-
ligion had brought into the church he
might have become Americas greatest
preacher.--Rey. Brown. Agnosticism is
simply al expression of the inability Of
the human II .ellect to cope with so vast q
subject as the il finite being of Gcd.-Dr.
Thorp. / believe that those who some
times attempted to reply to him did harm,
too. Argument is not SO good weapon
for the Christian as testimony to the
power of Christ to save and bless.-Dr.
Gray. There are ministers who are do
ing as much harm as he ever did; men
who try to prove that Jonah never lived,
who try to prove that job was d fieti-
tious character, men who tear the very
Bible to shreds with their so-called higher
criticism.-Rev. Harrison. He had false
and morbid views of Christianity; his
was caricature of religion. DIR. J. F..
Thomas.
New York.-Crime will continue to eat
its way into the breasts of your youths
as long as consciences are dulled by such
doctrines Parl.in. IL in that infinite
presence he is compelled to ask for mercy
we are assured in scripture that there Is
no failure Of infinite willingness to for
give-Rey. Cheu. He was kind heart
ed, loyable father, the friend Of society,
an orator, but with all his talents he was
a failure.-Re Smith. Col. Ingersoll
will be judged according to his light and
according to his deeds. Surely he will be
better off than the hypocrite, the liar and
the knave.--Dr. Bodine. What bless
ing it is that Mr.. Ingersoll and his fol-
lowers could avoid the consequences OF
their own doctrine S5 living in an age Of
Christianity and enjoying tnat marvellous
civilization of which Christianity has
been the mother teacher.-Dr. Cadman.
Brooklyn.--The world has lost one Of
its greatest philanthropists and reform
ers.-Rev. Mason. The followers of his
and similar doctrines are warming them
selves tonight over the dying embers of
Tom Paine and still harp;eg about the
mistakes OF Moses. DIR. DeCosta. In
gersoll had but partial view OF Chris
tianity, and hence his infidelity Rev.
Overton.

Premier Laurier's Remarkable Vie,
of A1aaka Rnundarv ns.nuta

Premier Laurier,s Remarkable Vie w
of Alaska boundary Dispute.
In the Canadian Commons Saturday
Sir Charles rupper brought up the ques-
ton of the Alaskan boundary. He said
that the United States, in refusing TO sub
init the subject to arbitration. well justi-
fed the decision Great Britain and Can
ada had reached in declining to allow the
question to go before the joint high com
mission. He believed that the Govern
ment and commissioners OF the United
States had lost confidence in their own
claims to this strip Of disputed territory.
Sir Charles suggested a bill providing for
the protection of British and Canadian
interests by enacting that no license to
mine in the Yukon district shall be grant
ed to any other than British subject.
Premier Laurier, in reply, sympathized
with much that Sir Charles Tupper had
said. He stated that he had little hope
now Of a compromise, and was very sorry
to say that the negotiations had not ad-
vanced the position one iota from that of
January last.
The alternatives, he gravely stated,
were arbitration or war. Arbitration, he
emphatically declared, must come, and al

companies Of the Fifth regiment, infan-
try, @. N. CT, We're kept busy scattering
mobs. One missile throwsr was shot
while trying to escape from a policeman,
but with all the rioting there was little
harm done.
Sunday night it became serious. The
worst incident OF the lawless night was
the blowing up of a Euclid avenue car in
the far east end. Nine people were in
Jured. II is believed nitroglycerin was
used. Motorman Dreggers was blown
from the car, aud one of his ears was
blown off, but lie managed to catch the
car again and shut off the current. About
| twenty people were on the car. Women
who were not hurt tainted. The car was

In the fioor- and was dragged along a con-
siderable distance. 1t is believed couple

knew them.
Mob violence broke forth with great
fury on Burton street, near Trent street.

tackled two cars with stones. The cars
We're in charge of Patrolmen Moore and

fought with their clubs, but the fury of
the rioters was toe much for them. They
We're badly bruised, when a Catholic
priest was seen elbowing his way through
the crowd. He finally reached the police,
and standing before them and the mob,
commanded the rioters in the name OF the
church to save the lives Of the men. The
flowing robes Of the priest and his brave
act awed the mob. The officers were then
taken into st. Prokops Church. Their
brave rescuer was the Rev. Father Wen
ceslaus
