crees The cabinet was of the opinion
that thus having established its deter
mination radically to reorganize the
affairs of the country it could appeal
with the fullest confidence to the peo-
pie in, general election.
Franco, the premier, dissolved the
chamber and established dictator
ship.
After numerous minor risings had
been put down the police, on January
%; came upon widespread plot to
overthrow the monarchy and proclaim
Portugal republic. The plot was or
ganized by small group of advanced
republicans, and the original intention
was to assassinate Premier Franco
and depend upon the secret, republican
and labor organizations, armed with
bombs and revolvers, to complete the
work of revolution in the country.
But the police raided the meeting
place of the conspirators and made a
number of arrests, selling quantities
OF bombs and other weapons, and since
then other raids have been made in
Lisbon, with the result that the police
believed they had the revolutionaries
we'll In hand. Each day, however,
brought new evidence of the ramifica-
tons of the plot to remove the heads
of the state.
A treaty with England, however, not
only provides far assistance from that
country in the event of foreign inva-
sion, but is also designed to safeguard
the crown against any demonstrations
from revolutionists.

the house of the line of Braganza, who
formerly reigned over Portugal, the

crown prince. The father of Dom
Miguel was the late King Miguel l.,
duke of Braganza, who seized the
throne from his niece, Queen Maria
H., daughter of Emperor Pedro 1. of
Brazil, and was king of Portugal from
1928 to 1884, at which latter date
throne. There have been numerous
rumors of rebellion, with the object
of placing Dom Miguel on the throne,
but recently these were not given seri-
GUS consideration.
Dom Miguel, through the medium Of
Vienna, announced his readiness to fill
any vacancy in the Portuguese throne
arising from the dispute in that coun-
try.
New Boy King.
A boy king, who henceforth will be
known as Manuel H., is tonight the
ruler of the kingdom of Portugal, and
the revolution into which the insti-
gators of the bloody events of yester-
day had hoped to plunge the country
has not up to the present engulfed the
nation. Franco, the dictator and real
commander of the country's destinies,
is confirmed in power with the king,
determined to prevent. further violence
and insurrection and to preserve the
monarchy.

Brown of Bridgeton does not lie
moldering" altho his grave is dug in
the Broad street cemetery here.
The first intimation the Brown fam
lily had that funeral was to take place
was when Charles Goff, the official
grave digger, called at the Brown
homestead on Pine street and informed
Mrs. Brown that the grave for her
husband was now ready. Mrs. Brown
was mystitied, but went to the ceme-
terry, thinking there must be some mis-
take. Sure enough, there was a good,
deep grave. just John " Browns size,
plump in the center of the family lot,
that had just been graded and sodded
with grass at considerable expense.
Mrs. Brown was indignant and ordered
the grave filled and the sod replaced.
Brown, who is d paperhanger and
grainer. is alive and We'll and is work
ing at his trade. He feels downcast
over the affair. however, as he thinks
it q token of i'll luck.
The only way the mistake can be
accounted for is that Superintendent
Bowen of the cemetery company mis-
understood an order for a grave.

port of his fathers death and fastened
