AMERICAN FLAG USED IN UPRISING Outbreak In St. Pierre De.

Riotous Assembly Marches to Ansri.
 can Consulate and Cheers United
 States - Question of Religious ln-
 struetion In Schools Has Excited the
 Population-British Gunboat Sent, as
 France Has No Warship Nearer Than
 West Indies.
 St. Pierre, N. F., Nov. 1S.-The pop ular revolt against the government of this French colony increases in strength every hour, and many are advocating annexation by the United States. The police force is powerless to restore order. '
 A most significant incident was the carrying of the American flag at the head of marching host of more than 1000 men, who visited the government house and the American consulate and cheered the United States.
 The manifestation on the part of tho populace is due to the school question. The people of St. Pierre demand free schools in which religious instruction is given.
 Two schoolmasters charged with con. ducting free schools were convicted and fined $200 each, and the schools were closed.
 This infamed the population, which assembled ou the streets and violently denounced the French government.

British Warship Sent to St. Pierre.


 St. Johns, x. F., Nov. 1S.-Dispatch. es from St. Pierre state that the sit. uation there is serious.
 The British warship Brilliant, now in St. Johns harbor. has been direct ed to proceed to the French town. France has no warship nearer St. Pierre than the West Indies.
 St. Pierre dispatches state that a crowd that marched to the govern ment house numbered 1000 and that it also visited the American consulate and cheered the United States.
 It is believed here that should the French government refuse to recon slider its action in regard to the schools the annexation party at St. Pierre will endeavor to induce the United States to purchase the colony.

News Of I Horses and Horsemen

by w. j. CARTER (BROAD ROCI<).
The dispersal sale OF trotters, thor
oughbreds aud hackney horses, owned
by the estate OF the late William n.
Wilmer, at Plain Dealing Stock Farm,
near Scottsville. in Albemarlc county,
Va, took place on the sixth instant and
was well attended while bidding was
brisk throughout the vendue and prices
satisfactory.
The fact that most of the older horses
had been used at different times by
President Roosevelt, frequent guest
at Plain Dealing, and whose country
home, Pine Knot, is nearby, seemed
to create additional interest in the sale,
which very likely accounted for tlsc
rapid bidding on most of the offer
ings. though buyers included some OF
tho best judges of horse flesh In that
section of Virginia.
The first horse offered was Virginia
Chief, who has probably sired more
good useful horses than any trotting
stallion ever in the county, and John S.
Martin, the younger brother of United
States Senator Martin, secured the
Black son of Kentucky Prince, at a
very reasonable price. The horse is
seventeen, but does not look his age,
and should be potent for at least a de-
cade longer.
d. A. Langhorne. owner of several
fine Albemarle county farms, and some
OF the best known and richest bred
trotters in the South. got Flora Aller-
ton cheap enough, and this handsome
daughter of a great sire joins the stud

The mo fence law" has been Of tho
greatest benefit to the State of Vir-
gnia in many ways, I suspect, but
