WHOLE ROYAL FAMILY.
Taken to RevaI to Bid the Baltic
Fleet Farewell


st. Petersburg, Oct. S.-The imperial
household proceeded today from Peter
hof to the palace at Tsarskoe-Selo.
from the latter place this evening a
special train carried the emperor, the
empress and the heir-apparent to
Reval, where Sunday and Monday will
be spent in an inspection of the fleet.
This is the first Journey of the en-
press and the heir-apparent from Peter
hof. Every arrangement had been
made for the safety and comfort of
the royal infant on the journey. The
train was heated to exactly 64 degrees
Farenheit, and the household physi-
clans and relays of nurses were in at
tendance. The train did not stop at
Reval, special siding having been
constructed to the shore of the harbor
Upon leaving the train the party went
directly aboard the royal yacht, which
will be their home for the next two
days.
The emperor carried to Reval fifty
two ikons, one for each ship in the
harbor. 1t Is now understood that the
contemplated imperial trip to Skierne
vice has been abandoned, and that the
party will remain at Tsarskoe-Selc
throughout the remainder of the
autumn.

TOWN TERRoRIzED BY FlREeues
Blue Ridge, Ga, Sends for Blood
hounds to Chase Incendiaries.

Knoxville, Tenn, Oct. 9.--Excite-
ment is running high at Blue Ridge,
Ga, over attempts to fire many build
ings.
Citizens have organized and are pa
trolling the town day and night, armed
with shOtgnns and loking for firebugs.
Bloodhounds were ordered from Chat
tanooga and traced two men to their
homes. They were both Jailed, but
there Is no other evidence against
them. More than a dozen houes, in
cluding the home of Supt. c. W. Brad
shaw, of the A. X. & N, railroad, have
been fired, but the flames were ex-
tinguished with little loss in all but
two instances.
So far there has been no theory ad'
vanced as to the identity of the fire
bugs. Several negroes have been sus
pected but no positive proof has been
found that the flends are black.
The entire community is terrorizet
over the outrages and women an:
children are living in mortal terror OF
disaster, while the men are bending
all their efforts to the task Of ferret
ing out the miscreants before any
more serious harm is done.

SWALLOW WANTS TO KNOW
Prohibition Candidate for President
Takes Republican Candidate to
Task in Clever Way.

Rev. DR.. Silas c. Swallow. the prohi-
bition candidate for president, is free
lance as between the two great parties,
finding much to condemn in both, and
little to commend in either. AS an by
stander, entirely with prejudice toward
either of the leading candidates, DR..
Swallows opinion of the Roosevelt let
ter of acceptance is particularly inter-
esting and unbiased. DR.. Swallow notes
many omissions, and says
at would be worth more to the coun-
try to know what President Roosevelt
thinks, not about the threadbare tariff.
gold, Monroe doctrine, American flag,
and his own apologizedfor, wasteful ad-
ministration, but about the profit-shar-
ing partnership existing between the
government and the legalized liquor
business.
"Or, if he had told us whether he
favors, for votes, or is opposed to the
polygamous crime now eating the moral
vitals out of three states, we would have
been glad.
If he had told us his purpose, II
elected, toward those trusts that corner
the necessaries of life, like the coal
trust, instead of attempting to confuse
the minds Of voters with juggle OF
words about the relation of trusts to
tariff, we would have been bette,
pleased"
1t is to be regretted that In his IL, 900.
word essay, Candidate Roosevelt devoted
so much space to pettifogging, self-lau.
dation, casuistry and special pleading
that he had little time or inclination tc
deal plainly and clearly with real livs
issues of the day.
