archy in Portugal. 1t is practically the
unanimous opinion here that the near
future will witness a violent political
struggle in which the life of the mon
archy may be at stake. The compara-

which the forces of the monarchy on
one hand and the popular government
on the other are being marshalled for
the coming fray. the battlefield OF
which will be Lisbon. The masses of
people in the country are ignorant, and
have hitherto been entirely Indifferent
to the political battles which have con-
vulsed the capital Lisbon, for political
purposes, is Portugal. and the repub-
licans are confident of the influence of
the capital, which they assert is al
most unanimously republican, and will
sound the knell of the monarchy.

about his waist and upper arms were
heavy bands of ltlked steel chains, and
on each link was attached hook, ev-

such a fashion that each time the
