HE COULD NOT BEAR TT.
An Unsuccessful Dental Operation
in Omaha.

OMAHA, Jan. 29.-An enormous sill
yer tip bear, frenzied with an liberated
tooth. which it's master was trying to
extract, escaped from it's cage in the
Creighton Theater to-day and created
panic before being captured. In adj
dition to frightening a number of per-
sons, the bear seriously hurt itA master,
Paul Batty, badly lacerated Stage Hand
Mcdonald and tore the clothes off Jake
Rosenthal, manager of the theater.
Mcdonald was assisting Batty to ex-
tract the tooth and a crowd of men and
boys surrounded the cage of the en-
ragged animal witnessing the operation
The brute was fastened down with
chains and leather bands, but when the
trainer touched the tooth the bear gave
roar and burst his bonds like paper.
With a sweep of his mighty paw he
threw Batty and Mcdonald to the floor
and turned upon the crowd around the
iron cage.
They fed in every direction, but the
cage was demolished in a moment.
Manager Rosenthal was climbing into
the flies, and as the enl'aged bear pass
ed his hiding place he made one pass at
the manager and catching his frock
coat carried it completely away with
him. He also tore the shoe from one of
Rosenthals feet and then passed on in
pursuit of the crowd. In the maze Of
scenery back of the stage the bear vent
ed his fury by demolishing property

had recovered sufficiently to direct the
heating of irons to subdue the animal.
He was driven into the cellar of the
theater, where surrounded by a row of
red hot irons he submitted to being

Governor Roosevelt presided. Major
Gel u Roe. with his staff, Admirals
Erb, and Miller, Lieutenant-Com-
manden Delehanty, Adjutant General
Avery OF Andrews, Colonel Treadwell.
Commodore Philip. Captain Goodrich
and hundreds of other officers were
present.
Governor Roosevelt made a brief ad-
dress, after which Father Chadwick
spoke for an hour, giving an interest
ing account of the sailing of the Maine
for Havana, the experience in Havana
and the blowing up of the ship. He
spoke of the heroism of the sailors
when the catastrophe occurred and at
forwards when suffering in hospitals.
What do they mean by imperial
ism?" said he in the course OF his adj
dress. What does it mean? this de-
parture from the settled policy of the
nation? The whole tide of the war is
toward Republicanism. Shall we go
back and stop the progress of the
world?
Il do not mean to arraign the Gov
eminent as if it were responsible for
such a policy. 1 firmly believe that
there is no greater American than Pres
ident Mckinley. The holding of the
Philippines is not against the princi-
pies of our nation. The holding of the
islands is an absoluate necessity. Would
it not be to leave the Inhabitants in
bloodshed to withdraw the troops to-
morrow? Would we not be held UP to
the scorn of history if we should de-
sert them now? We are bound to keep
them The treaty does not say that
we are to hold them eternally, but the
American people must not let them go
back to Spain, but must hold them until
this nation can place them as they
must be placed, among the free peo-
Piles of the earth. The pressure upon
the President to compel him to formu-
late a policy in regard to the Philip
pines is wrong. He cannot formulate a
policy in regard to a people Of whom we
are ignorant. The Philippines must be
kept like Cuba until wise statesman
ship can decide what is the best policy
toward them

MURDER AT PANA.

PANA (IIl.), Jan. 29.-Mrs. Mary Nc
Intire. wealthy widow, 10 years OF

supposed to have kept considerable
money about her. She lived alone In
small house in the F'latham district
near the scene of several fights recently
between striking union miners and ne
groes working in the mines.
1t Is supposed the crime was commit
ted two or three days ago. Neighbors
became suspicious to-day and the doors
We're broken open. Everything about
the place showed that a desperate
struggle had occurred. Mrs. McIntire's
body was found chopped almost to
pieces and thrown under a bed. Ev-
erything of value had been carried

listening to six intensely patriotic eul0-
gies upon Jose Marti, the Cuban patriot
and First President of the Cuban Rev
dictionary Government. A tablet to his
memory was unveiled at the house
where he was born, in street near by,
and eighty-two societies, consisting of
$500 persons, with banners, flags and
five bands, marched through the prin
cipal thoroughfares to the square.
The eulogies contained few references
to the United States or the military
administration, and the only vitupera
tive references to the Spaniards was
quietly received.
The tendency of all the speeches was
toward the ultimate independence of
Cuba, which the orators recognized as a
fact not yet accomplished They de-
clared that all Cubans should unite to
reach that great end, to make their
desires known to the world and to
claim independence as right when the
proper time arrived.
All the references to Cuba libre were
applauded and Marti was held as an
example for all Cubans. A telegram of
salutation was sent to General Gomez.
The plan of General Gomez to unite
the Spaniards in Cuba with the CubanS
proper in party whose platform
should be the independence of the ISL
and, does not altogether thrive in the
Spanish mind
The Marquis of Pinar del Rio has
caused some apprehension among the
Spaniards by the assertion that during
his recent visit to the United States he
became convinced that the American
Government did not intend to hold Cuba
permanently Spanish bankers and
merchants decline to lend money or to
give liberal credits because they fear
that the American occupation will be
brief and that the reconstruction of the
insuIsr system of government will be
retarded in consequence.

9th, 2Sth and Doth, and about 1000
delegates from all parts of the United

Rev. John Potts, DID,, of Toronto, Ont,

map out the Sunday school lessons for
the next six years.
Possibly the most important work to
come before the convention will be the
study of what Sunday school work can

Flood Gates Of the Dreyfus Agitation
Reopened.
Jubi1ant Over
Carrying Their Point-1mpar-
tial Journals Deprecate the
Governments Weakness =
Nouvre Theater Incident Sig
nificant of the Attitude of the
Imperialists.

PARIS, Jan. 29-The Government S
decision to submit to the Chamber or
Deputies tomorrow bill providing
that the cases of trial revision shall be
brought before the united sections of
the Court of Cessation, has reopened
the flood gates of the Dreyfus agitation.
The situation appears more confusing
and menacing than ever.
For days the anti-Dreyfusites have
been clamoring to have the case re-
ferred to the united sections because
they have considered it certain that
among more than thirty Judges they
could rely upon an anti-Dreyfusite ma
jority.
M Loew, President of the Chamber,
who was, asked his opinion regarding
the Governments proposal, said: Il
am glad to be relieved of the response
bility, but the Governments action is
revolutionary
The anti-revisionist papers are jubi-
liant, but the most serious and impair
tial journals deprecate the Govern
ment's weakness. In all political CEN
tiers to-day there has been unusual ex-
element and activity. 1t is thought
in some quarters that the Senate will
refuse to accept the bill, thus producing
a constitutional crisis.
The disturbance at the Nouvre Thea
ter last Friday evening, when at the
conclusion of the performance of the
play THE King of Rome" the Bona
partists in the house hoisted a tri-color
flag, surmounted by an imperial eagle
and shouted -'Vive Ia Emperor" was
very significant of the attitude the i'm
perialists take in the matter. From
stalls to gallery 1900 Bonapartists
crowded the theater. Prince Murat and
all the titled and prominent representa-
tives of the party were present. Va
rious pertinent illusions in the drama,
which is a gIorification of the Napole
onic legend, were greeted with thunders
of applause.
LONDON, Jan ON. de Blowitz,
the Paris correspondent of the Times, -
commenting upon the state of an

ernment's yielding to outdoor pressure
bespeaks, predicts that the DILL Will

says that, like all concessions to
clamor, it will satisfy nobody.

LONDON, JAN 29-Right Hon. Wal
ter Hume Long, President of the Board
of Agriculture, addressing the Farmers
Club at Newcastle yesterday used the
word alliance in referring to the flu
ture relations between Great Britain
and the United States.
The frank employment of this term
by member of the Government is
likely to evoke much discussion, not
all of which will be of the friendliest
character, inasmuch as seeking an all
lance to fight England's battles is not
regarded as the best policy to promote
an Anglo-American entente.
