NEW YORK, June 25.-Harold Dick
son, driving an express wagon along
Walnut street in Montclair, N. j., saw
a little boy lying on the bank of
Toney's creek with his face in the

son jumped from his wagon and picked
up the child. He proved to be Gerald
H. Floss, age 4, son of William G.,
Floss of Montclair.
The boy was alive, but in the mid
die of the lads forehead was a wound.
Dickson probed a little, and finding|
that it was only a flesh wound, set
about reviving the boy BY working|
the childs arms and rolling him he|
restored Gerald to consciousness. Asl
name the child forestalled him.
"Where is my ducky?" the young
ster demanded.
Then he explained. Gerald had y
pet duck, of whose ability to swim he
knew nothing. The duck and he were
out walking along the banks of the
creek when the duck made for the
water Gerald thought sure that hia
pet would drown and he manfully
started to rescue it. AS he ran towarQ
the water he stumbled and his fore
head struck q snag. While he lay therN
unconscious the duck, unmindful of It
masters efforts in its behalf, wa

duck should swim. Dickson caugh

 Back to laborers.


 Washington, June 1.-The mayor of Cordova, Alaska, telegraphed the state department asking authority to transport to the United States 250 la borers from Montenegro, stranded in the Alaskan town and threatening to cause disorder. The message said the men had been arrested as vagrants, but subsequently had to be released because of lack of funds to support them in prison.
 Montenegro is not represented at Washington, so the request could not be passed upon by the state depart ment. The matter was referred to the war department, then to the depart nent of justice, which referred it to he department of commerce and la DOT, which passed it on to the depart ment of the interior.
 Finally, all departments joined in referring the matter of Gov. Walter Clark of Alaska, who is in Washing ton. Gov, Clark wired to Cordova for additional information as to how the aborers reached Alaska and under what promises.

King Manuel. It Is Believed, Will Ab- dicat2 and Sock Refuge

Badajoz. Spain. June 1.-The Por- tuguese army is in almost complete mutiny, according to secret advices that came across the frontier.
 Definite news from Lisbon is unob- tainable. owing to the rigid censorship now being exercised, which fact in 1t. self lends color to alarming dis patches. It is stated that there are hardly enough loyal troops fin the cap ital to furnish the royal palace with sufficient guard.
 Dispatches confirm the threatened abdication of King Manuel and the el- ovation to the throne of the Duke oi Oporto, the brother of the late King Carlos. Manuel will abdicate, it is declared. in the forlorn hope that th $ move will placate the growing wrath of his people, which was kindled acanst the royal household by the dis closure of sraltinx on the public treas ury.
 The situation in Lisbon and other parts of Portugal is that such start ling coup is momentarily expected It Is rum>red the royal family, includ ing the Dowager Queen Maria Pia will seek refuge shortly in Spain.
