The audience too was distinctly locally cosmopolitan, embracing both the representatives or AtIanta's most 6zcTasive circles and those who move in the plainer paths or the wcrkaday world. ,...
 Among the eprigrams from Mrs' Mllns address the article quotes:
 "Christian Science is the teaching ot the prophets and apostles in speaking of inc material existence as "a vapor' dream" fo rau flesh is as the mower of the field. that today is and tomorrow ia east into the oven.'

Before Mrs. Strange could arise Strange
was at her. slashing her across the back.
After the first cut of the razor Mrs. Strange
was unable to rise, and she was at the
mercy of the man. Her screams attracted
a crowd and the police were called. Streit
and Losh arrived shortly afterward, but
Strange had left the house. They saw him

about four blocks away from his home.
The city ambulance had been called in the
meantime STREET brought his prisoner
back 10 the house and then it was that the
crowd tried to vent its feelings the man.
Drs. Foreman and Kiser, of the Dispensary
staff. who accompanied the ambulance. saw
a once that Mrs. Strange was probably
fatally injured and they hurried back to
the DispenSary with her. Her back was
sewed up and she sent TO the City
Hospital. 1t was thought at first that she
would not survive, but last night she was

mother tried to ward off a blow from the

Strange is an old police character. About
year ago he was employed at the station
janitOr. Since his marriage to Mrs
Strange he has been in trouble a number
of times for assaulting her. few weeks
ago he was arrested for striking one of his
sons. He had fight with his wife, and in
trying TO strike her with a water pitcher
struck his son, inflicting a severe scalp
wound. Prior to that case he was arrested
for trying TO kill Mrs. Strange by stabbing
her with pocket knife. He bears a bad
reputation, and last night the police heaved
a sigh of relief that he was behind the
bars. expressing the opinion that he would
probably get a long prison sentence.

kILLICK Is A PIRATE,
And General Firman, Who Is March
ing on POrt-au-Prince, Has Been
Declared an Outlaw.

WILLEMSTAD. Island of Curacao, July
26.-President Castro. of Venezuela, has re-
turned TO Caracas from Barcelona owing to
the impossibility for him with his army of
1900 men to attack the revolutionists wait
ing for him intrenched al Aragua, capital
of the state of Guzman Blanco. He left
without firing a single shot notwithstand-
ing his proclamation in which he said he
would fight one against ten. The moral
effect produced by his retreat is disastrous
for the government and gives an idea of
the strangest of revolutions which latterly
had spread towards the center of Venezuela.
The revolutionists are at Chaguaramas on
their way to Orituco, sixty miles from
Caracas. President Castro's new plan is to
attack the revolutionsts near Valencia
where they are assembling from all di-
rections, General Riera with 1.So0 men be-
ing on the way there from Coro. General
Solagnie, with 1000 men, is marching to
the rendezvous from San Felipe, General
Mendoza with 900 men is bound there from
Barquisimeto and General Matos, leader of
the revolution, accompanied by General
Monagas and large forces of revolutionists,
is also headed for that vicinity.
The government of President Castro can
not hold out much longer. Funds are needed
and forced loans are being reSorted to.
Trains on the Caracas Railroad are being
held up daily by the revolutionists.

TORN BY HUNGRY DOGS
NINE. EDMUND sEMPIs LACERATED
BY TWO GREAT DANES.
Animals When They Attacked
Her with Their Teeth.

NEW YORK, July 26-Mme. Edmund
Sempis, who. before her marriage a year
ago. was Miss Louise Rutherford. of Brook
lyn, has been set upon, says a Paris dis
patch to the World. by two hunger-mad-
dened Great Dane dogs. which had been Sc
cured to guard her husbands country house
at Annecy Lake, and so terribly injured
that she died two hours after the attack
NJ Sempis is a prominent business man in
Paris His home at Annecy Lake is isolated
and following a recent attempt by burglars
to enter the place, he purchased two pow
erful Great Danes as guards. The dogs
proved so ferocious that they were con-
fined in an iron inclosure during the day
time for the safety Of the family. Nine.
sempis was advised to starve them so that
when food was given to them they would
remember kindly their benefactors. So they
had nothing to eat for two days Nine.
Sempis did not accompany her husband and
their guests who started for a drive to
AK les Baines She noticed the dogs while
she was walking in the yard and knowing
that they had been without food deter
mined to feed them, as they were appar-
emily quiet. She ordered the cook to pre-
pare a bowl OF meat and carried it to the
kennel. the woman accompanying her.
The instant Nine Sempis entered the iron
inclosure the Great Danes leaped upon her
like hungry tigers. They bore her to the
ground and as she vainly sought to defend
herself their teeth sank in her arms and
body. Her struggles apparently maddened
the animals the more. The coachman heard
the screams of Mime. Sempis and the cook.
Nine. Sempis begged the man to save her.
He ran to the stable to get pitchfork
When he returned the Great Danes had
fearfully torn their victim. The coachman
fought the brutes into corner and kept
them there until the cook summoned neigh
bors and carried Mime. Sempis from the in
closure in a dying condition. few min
utes after NJ. Sempis and guests returned
she succumbed to her injuries after ex-
changing a few words with her husband,
who is nearly craZed by the tragedy.
