ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.

An attempt was made yesterday morn
ing in Santo Domingo City to assassinate
President Morales, of the Santo Domingo
Republic. The attempt was abortive.
Five of the would-be murderers were
arrested, but the rest escaped. This
information was received late yesterday
afternoon by the State Department from
United Minister Dawson, at Santo
Domingo city.
From the wording of the dispatch it
is surmised t.theS State Department, that
President Morales not only escaped with
his life, but was uninjured.
Officials of the State Department are
not at all surprised at the attempt.
President Morales administration of
affairs has been seriously assailed by the
strong revolutionary element ia the
island. In the judgment of the officials
of the State Department, be has made
the best executive Santo Domingo has
ever had. His endeavOrs to get the
republic out of debt and in good stand
ing with the United States aud other
world powers have been, it is said there,
very creditable.
1t is thought probable that the would.
be assassins belong to the old revolution
ary party, and that the recent action OF
President Morales 10 making treaty
with the United States, under the terms
of which this country assumes the ad-
ministration of the fiscal affairs OF
the republic, led to the attempted as
sassination. The treaty has been
opposed by the revolulionists, who dis
like greatly to see the customs receipts OF
Monte Christi and other ports held by
them taken over by the United States to
run the Morales government and pay the
foreign debts of The littleisland republic.
President Morales has been, to a great
extent, reformer, and has stoOd fol
good government since he assumed his
Office, a little over year ago. Infor-
nation has reached the State Depart
ment that several other attempts have
from time to time been made on his life.
At the present iine the United Sta e
has only two warships in the Dominican
waters. The gunboat Castine, com
manded by Commander Dorm, is al
Santc Domingo city, and the cruiser
Detroit is at Puerto Plata. The cruiser
Newark, the flagship of Rear-Admiral
Sigsbee, will sail either today or to-
morrow from Guantanamo, Cuba, ioT
Santo Domingo.
While it is not believed in Washington
that the attempted assassination OF yes
terday means the beginning OF reyolu,
ton in Santo Domingo, the United
states will take care to see that snill'

MONEY FOUND IN PICTURES.

Most interesting sequels to the deatn
of Edward McKenna, octogenarian
gardner and expert fruit grower, which
occurred in Cumberland, Nd, early in
this month are coming to light On the
day that the remains of Mr.. McKenn&
were laid out in his humble home,
SO. 700 we're found in the room behind
two pictures, those of the "cruclhx"
and @Pope Leo XIII," the Mckennas
being devout Catholics. Since then
findings have increased the amount OF
cash boarded up by Mr. Mckenna 10
over SIG, GOO, all of which the aged wife
has placed in bank to her credit. IL
was found that he had 80, 600 in bank.
On Thursday Mrs. McKeuna pre-
sented Mrs. Sarah A. Mckenzie, widow
of James S. Mckenzie, OF Cumberland,
picture of "St Patrick" Mrs.
Mckenzie has been very close to the
McKenna family, being constant as
sistant during the illness which resulted
in Mr.. McKenna's death. She is a
washerwoman, with whom resides three
daughters, one being a young widow
with two little boys. Mrs. Mckenzie
took the picture home. 1twas set aside,
an Yesterday Mrs. Mckenzie remarked
to her daughters, who were busy over
their ironing boards 81 am going to
get St. Patrick and clean him up, while
the wash water is heating, so that he
will look good for St. Patrick's Day "
The glass anu frame were very much
soiIed. 1t struck Mrs. Mckenzie that
treasure trove might be in this picture,
AS it was in others. She removed the
back from the frame, and her eyes almost
sprang from he, head, so great was her
surprise when she counted out 81 22l.
With the exception ofthe one dollar bill
the money was in gold certificates, as
follows: Four 500 notes, sixteen 500
notes, and One'$20 note.
Mrs. Mckenzie could have kept the
money, and no one would have been the
wiser, but she said her conscience would
not permit her, and she took the money
TO the home of William +. Walsh, ex-
ecutor of the McKenna estate, and told
him ofthe circumstances ofthe lind. Mr..
Walsh complimented her for her honesty
and it is understood that she will be re-.
warded, her services in bOhalfef the aged
couple meritiny it if for no other reason.
1t is stated that ex-Judge Ferdinand
Williams attorney will look after the
interests of Mrs. Mckenzie.
After the find by Mrs. Mckenzie at her
home, she was urged to go to the Nc
Kenna home and search more pictures.
This she did only to find 81, $50 behind
a picture Of "The Guardian Angel" " In
all s. ,10l were found behind pictures,
the money having been secreted there by
Mr.. McKenna without the knowledge OF
any one. McKenna was generally look
ed upon as poverty.stricken.

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The influence OF
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated


men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition; because OF
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
Whata disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her headl A sickly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to ali joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
