OF his wife and Reuben B. PARRISH in
that town and the subsequent ef-

Alexis yielded to the urging Of those
about him and decided 10 take
refuge aboard the French warship.
At precisely O'Clock, a salute Ct
y guns announced his departure
frcm ths palace, Thousands lad
sathered there early in the day and
they had surged around the entrance,
threatening to tear down the walls
10 drive out the president and the
loyal followers, As the hours pass
ed, the great mob became infuriated
,houting for him to leave the coun-
try. The mob was armed and men
and women, beside themselves with
the aged man who had been deposed
from the presidency hut who had
iiercCly expressed his determination
10 fight to the last.
SO serious wa, the situation that
the French minister, NJ Carteron,
and other foreign representatives, to-
gether with members OF special
committee, forced themselves upon
the president who finally con, ented
to withdraw shouts greeted him as
hR stepped from the precincts of
the palace and into a carriage,
which had been provided NJ Carter
on carrying the French tri color sat
beside him and the minister threw
the folds Of the flag over the should
ers Of the depQsed president to pro-
tect him.
AN immense crowd of men and
women had assembled at the wharf,
and the arrival of the presidential
carriage, escorted by battalion
of infantry and a squadron of cav
AIRY under command of General
Hippolyte, was the signal for wild
tumult and riot.
All along the route, the people
who lined the streets shouted ieered
and cursed at the fallen president
but when the landing stage was
reached, the mob lost all restraint
The scene was tragic and shameful,

Miss Frances Gordon, as "Just
Plain Mary presents one of the best
character impersonations known to
the American stage. The part calls
for a versatility that is unique in
it's variations Mary, the housemaid,
is built upon incidents in the action
of the. piece that give scope for
dramatic ability, appealing pathos,
and require at the same time that
the actress handling the part sing
we'll MISS Gordon has filled every
requirement. She possesses a beauti-
dul siagins voice; has clear con-
ception Of ,Cohans character and in
terprets 1t accordingly and in the

dangerous. lt was believed that the
pOpulace, armed ana exasperated by
the stubborness OF the president,
would make an attempt upon the
palace at any moment and that
certainly the night could not pass
without an armed assault, which
doubtless would mean the death OF
NOrd Alexis and the destruction Of
the bdilding.
Deserted by his ministers, aban-.
doned by those that he had put into
high office and reviled by the whole
population. Alexis had little chance
of escaping except through the in
tervention Of the representatives OF
the French government. His guard
had been reduced to a minimum
through desertions and only few
of the troops remained loyal.

posted at the crossroads to oppose
the march of General Simon's forces

into the city this morning IN disor-
der The force was mace up OF SOL
diers from the northern part Of the
republic, and these now have fled
after having suffered civilians 20
disarm them without resistance.

LOSING SENATORSbIP

their way. This explains the wait
of Charles p. Taft and Arthur I.
Vorys in Washington, where they
went to attend the dinner given last
week by the Republican national
headquarters workers during the re-
cent campaign. The two Ohio men
remained in Washington for several
days after the dinner, as did Frank
II. Hitchcock, chairman or the nat
ional committee.
Mr.. Hitchcock spent most OF his
time in conference with either Mr..
Burton or Charles Z. Taft. His ef-
fort was to persuade Mr.. Burton TO
accept at once the offer of a cabinet
post and thus settle the controversy
over the senatorship inside the Taft
ranks i'm Ohio. Mr.. Hitchcock, Mr..
Taft and Mr., Vorys finally left
Washington without securing a
definite answer from Mr.. Burton.
Dispatches from Washington are
TO the effect that Mr.. Burton will
not discuss the tender of a cabinet
post to him except TO say that he
prefers a congressional career. He
will neither deny or affirm the re-
port that the secretaryshlp OF the
treasury has been offered TO him.
The authority for the definite state
ment that It has, however, Is be-
yond question,
The president-e elect Is acquitted.
according to a Washington dispatch,
of any purpose to clear the road
10 the senate for his brother by
his offer to Mr. Burton There are
reasons sufficiently obvious, In the
opinion of Washington politicians
who know the situation, why Mr..
Taft should make such an offer to
ir. Burton quite outside OF any
considerations growing out of Char
les p. Taft's senatorial candidacy.
1t Is apparent, too from these
Washington dispatches, that the offer
has not tempted Mr.. Burton from
his determination to try his utmost
to land the seat held by Senator
Foraker,
Mr. Burton will return from
Washington Friday, staying in town
over Sunday.
