KING Carlos, of Portugal, and the
Crown Prince Louis PHILIPPE, were
assassinated, on the streets of Lisbon,
Saturday afternoon, from q volley
fired by concealed conspirators. They
were riding in on open carriage,
when the assault was made. The
royal guard killed three who were
supposed to have fired the fatal shots.
Precautions had been doubled since
the plot discovered for overthrow of
the kingdom, on Jan. 23d, but as
seen, they were futile.

SUIT FOR THE WHISTLE NUISANCE.
"A suit for $4,000 damages has
been instituted against a railroad in
Pulaski county, Texas, for footing
one of the company's locomotive
whistles, at the depot, which was so
shrill that it bursted plaintiffs ear
drums. His name is J. H. Sellers,
and he is said to stand o chance for
getting the whole amount claimed.
This should be warning to those who
foot ear-splitting nuisances in the
shape of steam-whistles so persist.
emily to the discomfort of the people
in many ways.

TACOMA has another freak whistle.
ing we'll. 1t is on the Pc terson farm,
near Fern Hill, about two miles from
town. At the depth of 1876 feet a
stratum of gravel was struck, on pen
etration of which strong current of
cold air was struck, which rushed
forth with such force as to create a
whistling sound that may be heard
some distance from the opening. 1t
can hardly be inferred, however, that
the lead struck can be from the d.
rection of the terminal city, where
hot air seems to indicate the normal
temperature. There is some conso-
lation in the thought, however, that
"All's we'll that ends WELL"

SURELY AN INcIPIENT POLITICIAN
A young miss who was q leader on
the affirmative side of the question,
at a school debate lately in Tacoma,
as to whether the Panama canal is a
praiseworthy enterprise or not, ST.
fenced all opposition and ended the
debate, by vigorously characterizing
those who predicted that the canal
would hurt the railroads, that the
channel would fill up, that its con.
struction and maintenance would be
too expensive, ETC., as Calamity
Howlers. This method was so un-
expected and unique, that it carried
the question by storm.

SPECIAL TRAIN FOR DEMOCRATIC
NATIONAL CONVENTION. - A para
phrase of the adage, All Roads
Lead to Rome" is suggested by the
Portland Commercial Club, who at a
largely attended meeting of business
men, held last Friday evening, to
discuss the advantages the Pacific
Northwest could secure as result of
the National Democratic Committee
having selected Denver as the place
for their convention next July. 1t
was most unanimously and enthus-
iastically decided that arrangements
would begin at once for special
train composed of prominent citizens
of Washington and Oregon which
would go to Denver for the purpose
of advertising the attractions of this
portion of the United States as
the choicest Summer playground of
America. 1t was also decided to ask
the Trans Continental Passenger AS
ISOLATION to put tickets on sale at all
stations in the United States which
would include a trip to Portland and
other points throughout the Pacific
Northwest at the same propOrtionate
rate that is made for the round-trip
to Denver.

TRENTON, June 26.-Trenton had
never seen a parson "drummed out of
town until the departure of the Rev.
Jarvis Clinton Worden, Of Brooklyn,
when fifty children, equipped with tin
pans, cowbells and other noise pro-
ducers, accompanied him to the rail-
road station. The police remained in
the background. 1t is understood that
the youngsters had the permission of
their parents to speed Parson Worden's
departure.
The minister caused a stir some time
ago by complaining to the police that
two little girls were doing acrobatic
stunts in boomers in aneighbor'shome
Investigation proved that the children
were taking gymnastic exercises with
the full sanction of their parents, who
had passed upon the costumes and APP
proved them. The parents and their
friends all waxed indignant.
There was more or less rejoicing
among the younger element when it
was learned that the minister was to
leave, and the children successfully
carried out their plans for a parting
testimonial.

WRITES AGED MOTHER.
Charles Madison, Strangely
Missing, Located After She
Feared for His Safety.

The voice of an aged mother could not
be heard in the call of the wanderlust
which, sirenlike, took Charles Matti-
son from his home in this city. Little
knowing the cause of her sons absence,
and fearing for his safety, the aged
woman in vain spent a long night of
waiting and then notified the police.
Charles was today located in Brooklyn.
Mrs. Mattison has written to her son,
asking him to return. Before leaving
Newark Mattison was employed by the
Public Service Corporation. But
whether her son returns or not. Mrs.
Mattison will not want for a home, as
her brother, George Lawrence, of SO
Summit street, says he will give her a
good home if Mattison fails to return.
Mattison's three small children will be
cared for in an Industrial home.
