FIGHTING In TABRIZ.
Eighty Reported Killed IN Day
and Night Battle In
Streets.
PEOPLE ERECT BARRICADES
Entrance of Undisciplined Horsemen
OF Shah's Adherent Endangers
Lives of Foreigners.

London, July 1.-The situation at
Tabriz, Persia, continues to be very
serious. Private dispatches received
here this morning say that the people
have erected barrcades in the streets
and that the fighting is going on night
and day. Tabriz and the entire province
of Azerbsijan are strongholds Of the
revolutonists and the arrival there
yesterday Of troops TO strengthen the
forces OF the Shah has increased the
danger Of the situation The entry Of
the troops into the city Is opposed by
the revolutionary forces. All the
bazaars have been closed, and there has
been some looting Of the residences OF
delegates to the assembly and business
houses.
Increasing cause for alarm Is found
IN the fact that Tabrlz Is surrounded by
Rachin Khan and his horsemen. They
are supporters of the Shah and utterly
without discipline. Should these riders
be turned loose on the city, the lives
OF even the foreigners would be IN
danger. III aElx
No details are given of the recent
street fighting, but one of the dis
patches concludes with these words:
"A good deal more boodshed Is ex-
pected before the trouble Is settled
The foreign community resident at
Tabriz Is small, and Is composed mostly
Of Russians. There are British consul
general, A. C. Wratislaw, and a Rus
elan consul general, M Pohitonow, the
staffs Of the Imperial bank and the tel
egraph company, and few Europeans
engaged In the carpet trade The Brit
ish and Russian consulates are guarded
by Cossacks
st. Petersburg, July 1.-The fighting
which took place at Tabriz, Persia, yes
terday, according to reports that have
Just come to hand via Baku, approach
ed the dimensions of a real battle.
Eighty men are reported killed, and
many more were wounded.
Horsemen under Rachin Kahn, took
part In the fighting. They entered the
town to support the adherents Of the
Shah.
A detachment Of $50 revolutionary
volunteers, which started for Teheran
to dethrone the shah, returned to Ia
briz after going forty miles.
The American consul at Tahriz, Will
liam f. Doty has demanded protection
from tho Russian general, for

Meneley Quartet eclipsing their former popu-
larity Their selections and the musical
instruments are taking the towns by storm. Rep
fSsentatve Golden is winning hundreds of new
friends for the cause and the Sutfns are doing
even better than last year, which is a hard
thing to do. Captain Stanley amazes the people
with his rapid-fre talk and his original songs
Blaine is making a good impression with his
stereopticon lectures. The Nevin Quartet is
doing honor to the Chautauqua and proving a
very decided help to the program Many count
them the, best thing in the course. Dr. Parkin-
son is doing strong work and his lectures are
delighting the people.
The schedules for dates of the Chautauquas
are not arranged very far ahead but State Chair
man Wilson, with seven in the field and
Superintendent Harvey to assist him at head
quarters, will rapidly bring order and will have
the Chautauquas running smoothly in all of their
tremendous detail after this week
The Chautauquas are now being held at
Equality, Harrisburg, Lawrence, Mt Carmel and
Carmi. For the week of May 1851 they will
be at Olney Newton, Robinson, Marshall and
Casey. The week of June 81 they will prob
ably be at Marion, Benton, Mt Vernon. Fairfield
and Flora.

The Illinois Chautauquas
[From State Headquarters


The Illinois Lincoln Temperance Chautauquas
opened Tuesday of last week down on the Ohio
River Considering the wet weather. they were
well attended and the fine program was re-
ceved with enthusiasm 1t is stated quite gen
orally that the talent this year is the best ever
put out in these Chautauquas. The program is
more expensive and has greater variety. There
are two quartets with fine music every day in
addition to the lecturers.
The big tent from Kansas City, which holds
1000 chairs, attracted considerable attention at
Metropolis, where it was located, with Clarence
d. Marston superintendent.
Probably the best crowds and the most sue
cessful Chautauqua of the week was at Eliza
BEETHOVEN in Hardin county, where there is no
railroad. This is the towns first experience
with the Chautauqua, but the workers did splen
did service and demonstrated that their county
is all right All of the talent had to 90 in and
out of there on the Ohio River Col c. J. Holt
was the superintendent and delighted the people
Elizabethtown thinks this is the greatest event
in its history in the way of instruction and en-
tertainment and would like another Chautauqua
next year.
Golconda was in charge of that able supern
tendent, Glenn Merry who came through with
flying colors and made a great success of what
at first looked like doubtful proposition. Col
conda was amazed at the talent put into their
town for small amount OF money.
Vienna was we'll pleased and liked the
superintendent, Walter S. Goodwin, who gives
chalk talks for children and gives expert lectures
to business advertising. Mr.. Goodwin
is a big success, and the towns that get him are
fortunate.
Mound City did WE'LL notwithstanding its fac
tories are closed down and part OF the county
is under water. The Prohibitionists and white
rbboners worked hard for victory w. l.
Lively, who is temporarily with Superintendent
Howlands tent, was in charge.

praise Regain is charming large audiences with
his crayon pictures, and the Mezicks as high
class singers meeting the expectations OF
musical people. Dr. Vibbert with his eloquence
and force is making deep impression and the

OF PARTY INTEREST

Prof A. M. Thatcher and daughter left Chi
cago on Saturday for the summers campaign in
Texas
State Chairman Mills of West Virginia is much
talked of in that state as the candidate of the
Prohibition party for governor.
Oliver W. Stewart left Chicago on Wednes-
day evening for the state of Washington, where
he began campaign on Sunday May II.
Mr.. Edwin c. Hadley managing editor of the
Kansas ProhibHoniSt, has been elected state
chairman of the Prohibition party of Kansas
The Prohibitionists of Wilmore, Ky, have or
ganized Prohibition club with 1874 members, 81
of whom are voters Colonel I. B. Demarree is
president of the club.
One of the quartets which sang at the Inter
collegiate contest in Springfield and was men
toned as coming from the Union Biblical Semi
nary of Dayton, Ohio, should rather have been
credited to the United Presbyterian Seminary of
Xenia, Ohio.
Mrs Anna Sloan Walker recently concluded
a campaign of some twenty thirty days in
Iowa, lecturing and organizing for the Womans
Prohibition Club of America, of which she is
president. Twelve days of the time spent
in Keokuk county, whence good reports come of
her work.
Major John NJ Caldwell of Milton, Pa, lead
ing Prollibtionst of the Keystone State and in
1899 the Prohibition candidate for state treas
urer, d1ed at his nome IN Milton on April 30.
Major Caldwell was a veteran of the Civil War,

bearer. Anybody named by Roosevelt
is an american" impossibility. for if
the reports industriousiy spread by
our American" friends are true, Mr..
Roosevelt entered into a horrible deal
with the hectic hierarch to seat one r.
SmoOt in the United States senate.
The Americans can't Join the
Democratic party because ninety-nine-
hundredths of them have never been
Democrats, never will be Democrats,
and couldn't be good Democrats II
they tried with all their might. They
would be sadly out of place in the
Democratic party. Besides, the Dem
ocrats haven't remotely suggested a
desire for their company. The only
thing left for the Americans is TO
mold a national convention of their
own and place ticket in the field. 1t
might get some votes.
1t should not be hard for them 10
find patriots willing TO accept the
honor About the first thing some
Americans think of is a chance 10
run for office. and it's about the last
thing they think of letting go. If the
Americans" want to land the Scotch
vote en- masse. we suggest that they
put George Sheets at the head of their
ticket. The Scotch would certainly
rally 10 him to a man, if only TO show
their appreciation of the efficient pro-
lection he threw around two of their
compatriots on a lamentable and new
er-tO-be-forgotten occasions. The poll
ing places would be crowded with
Scotch voters from the rising of the
sun even TO the going down of the
same.
There are so many American vice
presidential possibilities that there is
not room in which to name them. ].
f. Gibbs, for instance. Mr.. Gibbs
would get the church vote in large
chunks, as a matter OF course. Herr
Checkmeister Darmer might be first
class runner. The checkmeister
worked hard as chairman of the
American" committee for several cam
paigns. and got nothing for it except
at the end, some well-directed kicks.
And so we venture TO say. without
fear of successful contradiction, that
if every old creditor of the "Ameri-
can" committee who has tried TO get
money out of the checkmeister should
vote for him he would make a ire
mendously fine showing.
These be mere suggestions, dear
friends of the American party
thrown in, or thrown out. in passing
and entirely without cost, charge or
assessment of any sort or character
whatsoever. We take pleasure in
pointing out TO you the opportunity
of your party lifetime. If you fail to
seize her ere she fits, it will not be
our fault

A DESERVED TRIBUTE.

Robert A. Smith, for fifteen years
mayor of ST. Paul, Mimi. retired from
Office the other day at the age of 81
years. As he closed his desk a deputa-
ton. representing eighty-One citizens
one for each year of Mr.. Smiths life,
called and presented him with a purse
of 81 600 The old man had been sadly
wondering if he might not be COM
PEELED TO pass the last of his days as
public charge. That horror no longer
cOnfronts him. And he thoroughly de-
served the tribute he received.
For fifty years Mr.. Smith served his
people in one capacity and another. At
one time he had a considerable for
tune. but a bank in which he was di-
rector failed and he sacrificed every
dollar he had in order to reimburse the
depositors. He was always faithful 10
the interests of the people. and he
went out of office a far poorer man
than when he went in. II may be said
that no man deserves credit for being
honest. that that is a plain duty en-
joined upon all of US. In a sense IL is
true that honesty is in itself no great
er virtue that being kind to ones
mother or ones family.
But in these times absolute honesty
from the ethical and moral standpoint
is a comparatively rare commodity.
We find so many public officers who
regard their places as private gratis.
who lose sight of the welfare of their
masters. the people, in their desire To
advance their own interests. And too
often the man who has been true TO
his trust is allowed 10 sink into OBJ
security without a single friendly hand
outstretched TO aid him. Those St
Paul citizens performed a gracious
and a generous act when they placed
Mr.. Smith beyond want in the even
ing of his life. They are better men
for il. and the beneficiary of their
generosity will because of it, go to
the grave with a smile upon his lips.
