around, the whole scene was a counter
part of a sixteenth century play
Then from the rampaTts of the gate
came fanfare of trumpets. The queen
was in sight. Out upon a scarlet cloth,
laid, Ralei9h-lke, upon the muddy roa /,
stepped the lord mayor and the corpora
ton, their robes glowing in the bright
sunshine, and their wants and maaes
flashing brilliantly. The Earl of Denbigh
rode through, and then came the Life
guards.
Ireland had not seen Life guards for
over thirty years, and many were the
curious comments made as they galoped
past. Then came carriages containing the
home secretary, Sir Matthew White Rid
ley, the Duchess of Connaught and her
daughters, accompanied by members of
the court, and attended by mounted
equerries. and then more Life guards.
Finally, amid almost perfect silence, save
for the echo of cheers and cries of God
save the queen" from outside the city
limits, came the queen herself Opposite
her in the carriage sat Princess Christian
and Princess Henry of Battenberg.
CHEERING AND SINGING.
The moment her majesty reached the
gate enthusiasm broke loose. Bands
struck up, men cheered and sang bare
headed, and the women waved their hand
kerchiefs and struggled to get a better
view, many of them even weeping.
Beside the Queens carriage rode the
Duke of Connaught, commander of the
forces in Ireland. During the five min
utes when the queen was receiving and
answering the address Of welcome there
was scarcely a lull in the frantic cheer
ing from the crowds. Frequently her
majesty nodded. In fact, she scarcely
ceased nodding during the entire nine-
mile drive. Princess Christian also took a
prominent part In the ceremony, helping
the queen to take the sword, keys and
casket containing the address for, 6espit :
her ability to go through these functions,
it was evident that this tiny old lady of
eighty was really very fraiI and weak.
After the lady mayoress had prescn.e
a bouquet to the queen, the process sion
moved on. Behind the queen came a d.
zling escort of staff officers, more Life
guards and dragoons and finally the In
iskillings who We're loudly cheered as
they moved into lir e. Such a pageant hal
never been seen in Ireland before.

road station here He was not hurt
AS the train was leaving the Northern
station for the Southern railway sta
uon, an individual fired a revolver at
the Prince of Wales, but missed his royaI
highness.
The attempt upon the life of the Prince

board of the princes saloon car as the
train was starting and fired into the
car aiming at the Prince of Wales. The

is A MERE BOY.
The would-be assassin is a tinsmith
named Scipido. resident of Brussels, six.
teen years of age. His pockets were
found to be full of anarchist literature.
He nred two shots at the prince. The
Ff1ncess of Wales and others were in
the car. but NO one was touched
When examined by the station officials
Sclpldo declared ne intended 10 kill the
Prince of Wales; that he did not regret
his action, and that he was ready to do If
again II given a chance to DO so
Slplde subsequently said he wanted to
Kill the Prince of Wales because he
caused thousands of men TO be Slaughter
ed in South Africa
Hearing the shots the stationmaster
rushed to the scene and knocked down the
Would-be assassin's arm as he prepared
to fire a third shot, and a number nj
persons threw themselves on the prince :
assailant. In the confusion a second man
who was quite innocent, was seized
roughly handled and beaten.
After the Prince of Wales had ascer.
tanned that the man who fired the shots
had been arrested, he declared himself
and the princess Gninjured and the train
started
Intense excitement prevailed for the
moment, as it was feared the prince had
been hit, the shots having been fired al
most point blank. The railway carriage
door was hastily thrown open and great
relief was felt when the prince himself
appeared at the window, unhurt.
HAD A NARROW ESCAPE.
Both the prince and princess, however.
had very narrow escape
Inc policeman on duty took Sipido IN
charge. The latter appeared proud of his
exploit and seemed quite calm Sipdc
told the authorities that he lived on the
Rue de Laforge, at Saint Giles two miles
south OF Brussels.
PERSONS VINO attended the MaiSon du
Publlque yesterday said they heard Scip-
lido declare that If the Prince OF Wales
came to Brussels he ought to have a but

offer to be the first to fire at the prince.
According to lie Patriote some news OF
the views expressed at the meeting re-
ferred TO, was conveyed to the station
master, who had taken some extra pre-.
cautions.
Scipido appeared dressed in his best
clothing, having explained to his father
that he was going TO seek employment

Charge Attempt on Princes Life to
the noers.
LONDON, April l.-The news of the at
tempt upon the life of the Prince of
Wales spread with marvellous rapidlty In
all parts of London, and created the most
intense excitement and bitter Indignation
among all classes. The fact that the at
tempted assassination occurred III a city
where DR.. Leyds, the diplomatic agent OF
the Transvaal, makes his headquarters,
was generally taken to indicate that the
would-be assassin was a Boer sympathiz-
er, and this so infiamed passions that the
most bitter invet tives were hurl- i against
the Beers and everything connected with
them.
The government was wholly ignorant Of
the attempt on the life of the p. ince of
Wales until the press dispatches on the
subject We're communicat ed to the foreign
office. The Marquis of Salisbury jlnmedi
ately elegraphed to the Prince Of Wales
his CO ngratulations on his escape. while
the United States charge d'affaires, Hen
ry hite, who was calling on the premier
at the time, promptly repaired 10 MAIL
borough house and left his card there.
All the officers We're greatly disturbed
by the occurrence, and the general viw
was that it must be connected in some
way with the Transvaal, especially as the
Prince Of Wales has always heretofore
been such favcrite on the con inert, and
never before has been molested i'll the
slightest degree. One high official re-
marked:
That settles the question Of the Prince
of Wales visit TO the Pa'is exposition"
Some fears were expressed as 10 the
effect the occurrence may have IN Dublin
1t was pointed out that such attempts are
contagious. On the other hand. tn sc VIII J
are best acquainted with Ireland contend
ed that the only effect woull be to in
crease the determination of the Irish That
no untoward incident should mar The sue
cess OF the queens visit.

LISBON, April 4.-The question OF
the transport of British troops across
Portuguese territory from Beira, Portu-
guese East Africa, into Rhodesia, having
been brought up in the chamber of dep
uties. the foreign minister, Senior Beirad,
made the following statement:
The transport of British soldiers by
railroad from Beira to Umtilawa was re-
quested by Great Britain and assented to
by Portugal, because the British govern
ment thereby only exercised a right rec
ognized in the treaties between the two
countries. The outbreak Of war has not
abrogated these treaties, which were con-
cluded and signed prior to the war BY
Portugal in a spirit of loyalty. l have
informed the Transvaal of this resoju-
ton.
Portugal has Loyalty adhered to its
duties and neutrality, and its resolution
has been communicated to all interested
parties.
There occurs no more solemn occa-
sion than the present to declare that the
British cabinet has maintained with Por-
tugal relations of cordality and loyalty
for which there is reason for congratula-
tion. Please God that these good rela-
tions shall always be maintained"
