 St. Petersburg, Aug. 15.-Acting ap- parentIy with definite plan and a sis- nal the terrorists and revolutlohlsts to-day inaugurated a carnival or niur- derous attacks with bombs and revolY- CTS on the police and troops in various cities in Poland, echoes of which are heard from samara, Ufa, Yalta, Kiev' and even far away Chita, where acting Chief of Police Gorpinehenko was slain almost on his own doorsteps The rev. olutinnist campaign famed out with especial virulence at Warsaw, where over a score were slain in the streets, and many more were wounded.
 Warsaw. Aug. 15.-There were many sanguinary conflicts here to-day with revolutionists, who have organized wholesale massacres of policemen, gen. darmes and infantry patrols These conspirators shot and killed seventeen policemen, four gendarmes and seven infantry patrolmen, and wounded a score more. Soldiers fired volley into a crowd, killing fifteen and wounding with bullets and bayonets 13O.
 The massacre is svpposed to have been planned by revolutionists for re- venge for the arrest recently of social- ist forwmen in the iron working suburb of Praga. It was q Catholic holiday, and no one suspected that the massa- ere was in preparation. Tn eweather was beautiful, the city was calm and thousands of people were croWding out going excursion trains. Simultaneously the attacks on policemen began at 10 o'clock in the morning. About o'clock in the afternoon news began to arrive from all parts of the city releaving the concerted nature of the attacks. In Os- trovskaia street four men attacked a sergeant of police, but tke latter was able to bag three of them, who were armed with revolvers. In fight in Torgovia street revolutionists sho1 down two patrolmen and a Jewish merchant was killed by stray bullet.
 A band of ten men invaded a grop shop in Cholodena street, where they wounded a soldier. The clerk and wife of the proprietor opened fire upon the invaders and a passing patrol, attrack- ed by the disturbance, seized the en- frances of the shop, stormed the house and captured all the band.
 in the afternoon strong detachments Of infantry, dragons and Cossacks ap- peared in the streets, dispensing the crowds with their swords, firearms and bayonets The streets were quickly emptied and by 9 o'clock all the shops and restaurants were closed. Ambu- lance and vans were kept busy carry ing the wounded to hospitals.
 lAll passersby were searched by pa- trols and many arrests were made.

LAWYERS ANNUAL OUTING
FIND PLENTY OF ENJOYMENT AT
 LAKE COMPOUNCE.

Fine Sheep Bake Heterogeneous
 Speeches-Exciting Rowing Races
 The 'Chere" Wins--NTarried Men De-
 feated by Single Men in Baseball
 Game--CIimb to Mountain Top-Out-
 ing Great Success.
 In response to the very novel writ" in the case of the "Outing of the New Haven County Bar" sent out by Harry w. Asher as "clerk" of the outing com mlttee, a goodIy number of the dis ciples of Coke and Blackstone went yesterday morning on their outing and sheep bake at Lake Compounce.
 The day was an ideal one and the trip in two large trolley cars to MT. Carmel, through Cheshire to Lake Com- bounce was enjoyed by all.
 Immediately upon arrival at the lake the more exuberant of the guardians of the rights of the public, took to the water in six rowboats for race. Each boat contained two oarsmen and cox swain. They rowed to the lower end of the lake to get warmed up and then, at a signal, bent to the oars with a will to win. The race was exciting in the extreme. Prosecuting Attorney Robert J. Woodruff, of the common pleas court, in his haste pulled his oar out of the oarlock and gracefully went over backwards into the bottom of his boat, but quickly recovered himself. The "Mantow' rowed by Robert J. Woodruff, with David Fitzgerald as coxswain, was first over the line, but was adjudged disqualified by reason of having crossed the course of one of the other boats. The "Atumtoco" rowed by City Attorney Samuel E. Hoyt and William T. Minor, with Jacob Caplan as coxswain, was declared the winner.
 The second race was rowed over the same course by the same crews. The first boat over the course was the Atumtoco, ruled out for shutting out one of the other boats. The "Chere, ' rowed by Jeremiah F. Donovan, Yale law school 1894, recently appointed clerk of the civil service board, and Charles Morris Yale 1895, 1897 L. s., and coxswained by Judge Richard H, Tyner, Yale law school 1895, was de- clared the winner. During his sopho- more year in college Charles Morris won the General George H. Ford cup for singles in the fall and spring regat- tas in 1893. The judge of the races was Alexander Cumming, president of the Yale Law School Political club, and of the Yale Republican club, and who was formerly crack single sculler and oarsman of Harvard.
 The excellent dinner provided was en- | joyed by all Postmaster Harry w. 1 Asher, classmate in the Yale law school of ex-Mayor Carter H. Harri- son of Chicago, presided with grace and aplomb, He stated that as the oc- | casion was not banquet but @ sheep bake he would resign his duties as toastmaster and ask each speaker to name his successor. He called upon ex- | Prosecuting Attorney ames H. Webb as the first speaker. In turn, the fol- lowing men responded felicitously: udge A, Heaton Robertson, Harry w. Asher, ExCongressman James Pigott Julius Twlss and David Fitzgerald.
 The event of the afternoon was the | ball game between the married men and the single men. The lineup was as l follows

 Poughkeepsie N r., Aug. 15.-With Drivers Geers and Benyon dividing the honors of the programme, the Grand Circuit horses continued to score fast time on this the third day of the Pough- keepsie meeting. Never before has such an average of fast time been made on the Hudson River Driving park track as in the last three days, and the growing popularity of harness races is shown in the increased attendance each afternoon.
 Geers won the 2:1S pace with Ardelle and the Oakland Baron stake with Lady Gail Hamilton. The Iatter's two fast heats was the grandstand event of the afternoon.
 1 Selling favorite at $100 to $SO, Lady Hamilton remained with the bunch back of Orc in the first heat until the last eighth, when Geers made one of his famous drives and took the heat in an exciting finish with Orc by half a | length
 l In spite of bad start in the second heat, which held him in fifth place to the half, Geers piloted Lady Hamilton to another victory over Orc while Wat son and Helen Norte collided in the homestretch, throwing Drivers Ruther- ford and Wickersham and breaking the sulkies. No one was hurt.
 Ardelle won the 2:1S pace easily in straight heats, being a manifest favor ite as to be excluded from the betting. while Princess Helen sold for $l7 to SEQ for the field
 Exton was an even-money fayorite in the 2.25 trot, and Billy H. was the only horse in the field that contested his right to the money.
 Hal c. was also barred from the bet ting, and Lauretta was made favorite at $10O to $S6. Hal c. would have won in straight heats but for a bad break at the quarter in the second. Lauretta behaved badly in both the second and third heats. The summary:

There
Is no prettier white work for that dot
tom drawer which the coming bride Is
nreparing than the fiounces OF deep en-
broidery which can be picked up at the
winter sales and fashioned into yalances
for petticoats.
Two or three foundation petticoats of
dainty cambria are enough IL they are fin
tshed with buttons and cut with the spe-
cial idea of having the iounces attached.
By making two of colored silk. say one Of
mink and blue each. and with two or three
embroidery, variety may be accomplished
IN which shall be something to suit all the
light dresses The best part of these ruff
fies for that bride who expects to have the
handling of a modest income is that they
do not come high at the laundry and can
easily be done at home even by one who
is not an expert ironer. In this way starch
can be avoided and the petticoat itself be
sent to the laundry shorn of Its ruffies
where IL win not command such pro-
hibitive price. This kind of collection
is not complete either without a few lin
gerie cushion covers From remnants Of
dotted swiss fine, white lawn, and inser-
tions of lace, the loveiiest cushions are
made and when one does embroidery cas-
lily there is no end to the ornamentations
Many of them are made heart shaped or
oval or oblong, and the covers which arc
