at the monastery at Saroff promise to be
very interesting. The relics of st. Sc
raphriam will be exposed for alteration al
relics have been installed in a solid silver
casket beneath a silver baldachin. The
expense of the installation was borne by

act of canonization: Read with feelings
of genuine please and deep emotion.
The monastery, which is the scene OF
the ceremonial, is womans asylum sew
eral miles from the village of Saroff and
forty miles from the nearest railway sta
ton.
The attendance includes the imperial
family and court with many officials and
multitudes of pilgrims. Temporary bar

more favored guests, but the great ma
jority OF the pilgrims will be forced to
sleep in stables or in the open air.
The Holy Synod has issued a statement
that it remarks the appearance of new

heavens blessing upon the government OF
our most exalted monarch, who labors un
ceasingly for the welfare of the orthodox
Russian people and embraces in his royal
love and care all of his true subjects, of

Most elaborate preparations have been
made for the celebration. All of the porhp

its solemn hturgies will be employed.

to their story he deserted from the Fed
eral troops and joined the Filplnos. He
was regarded as a hero among the con-
victs who say he was once surrounded by
a detachment of troops and managed to
break through their lines at night, and,
gathering a force of Filipinos, captured
the United States soldiers and had them
shot to DEATH Later Woods was captured
and was tried by mixed court martial
on a charge of desertion and aiding the
enemy. He was convicted, but the Secre-

the part of half a dozen colored persons
opposed to Booker T. Washington, presi-

tions at q meeting. which he was address
ing tonight at the Zion Church, almost
resulted in a riot, and twenty-five police

ings issued statements. Booker Washing
ton said in his statement that the colorcd
people of Boston should not be held re-
sponsible for a few riotous individuals,
while William Munroe Trotter. one of

arrest and election of any person who
Kissed or manifested any objection to the
speaker of the evening.
1t was said that the disturbance was
pre-arranged, and after the meeting Trot-
ter and his friends admitted that they

to resent any attack that might be made
