Manuel TO the ThToe.

Lisbon, July 10.-That the present
revolutionary movement in the north
ern part of Portugal Is the best or
ganized that has yet assailed the pres
ent republic was admitted by officials
at the palace.
They insisted, however, that the
movement to crush it out is fully as
formidable and that there is no doubt
of the ultimate outcome, although
there viii be much fighting before
peace is finally restored.
King Manuel, who is anxious to re-
gain his throne, laid the plans for the
present movement in his several con-
ferences recently with Dom Miguel
and the latters sons. Ii is openly
charged here that the Spanish Carl
lists are aiding the movement and
that the Spanish government is wink
ing at breaches of the laws of neu-
trality.
There was renewed fighting at
Chauves.
Under cover of the darkness the
royalists attacked the town and were
not repulsed for several hours, dur
ing which the losses on both sides
were very large The garrison charged
the attacking party and finally put it
to rout, taking many prisoners, includ-
ing number of well known royalist
officers.

MANY COURT DEATH
Hunters Every Year Venture
Forth on Niagara River.
Nimrods Caught in Running leo Jam
Observed by Man With Glass, Who
Watches Them Plunge over
the Falls.

Buffalo, ~ Y.-The fascination OF
will lure men out onto the Niagara
river in the winter to an almost GER
tain death trap. 1t seems that the
duck hunting is especially good but
very dangerous about a mile above the
falls. Every winter adventurous duck
hunters put out in small boats and
dodge the ice cakes while they hunt
their favorite game. AS a rule, how
ever, most of the hunters perch them
selves upon ledge of ice and hunt
from it. They take terrible risk even
by this method. for the ice jam that
is constantly moving down stream is
at any time liable to dislodge the hunt
er's perch and down he goes a victim
to the merciless cataract
Not many years ago two men were
observed in a duck boat trying des-
perately to row out of a running ice
jam which had carried them down the
Canadian channel from far up the
river Their terrified efforts were
closely followed by man with a spy
glass, who had discovered them from
the windows of one of the large shore
factories on the American side The
unfortunate men had already drifted
too near the first roaring cataract to
admit of any possible rescue, so the
watcher could only helplessly wait for
their pitiful death.
In describing the incident afterward,
he said God, what could | do to help
them-what could any man do? The
Almighty alone seemed to hold them
in his power. One man seemed to be
wrenching his shoulders from their
sockets with the oars; the other stood
In the stern. desperately plying pike
pole. An oar broke, and was replaced
by third. The man didn't lose a sec
ond in its replacement. Then, In
mighty stroke, the other oar went,
and he fell sprawling back in the boat.
He stood up, pulled the good oar from
Its pin. and began padding insansly
from the side.
They made little progress. Slowly
the great field of ice swept them
down, down toward those snarling,
angry cataracts below. | writhed in
agony before the hopeless vision. Into
the rapids swept the fore part of the
ice jam. Then the first great wave
seemed to rise up and hover hungrily

over the little boat. Both men saw It
and rushed toward each other. Locked
In each others arms they disappeared
into the curling swell. That was the
last | saw of them"
Niagara also plays the death trap to
hunted as well as hunters. Hundreds
of wild fowls are swept each year over
the falls. During densely foggy nights
strange ducks often stop to roost in
the upper waters of the river Drift
ing unconsciously toward the brink,
they are suddenly hurled down into
the abyss of plunging water.

GAY-COLORED SATIN BLOUSES
Striking Hues Are Very Much in Fa-
Vor in the Makeup of This
Popular Garment.

Many very soft satin blouses are
seen in such colors as taupe-gray,
prune, bright purple, and black, COM
bined with white. These are very
simple in design. The neck is cut low,
and generally finished with a plain,
round, white null collar which some
times is made bit more elaborate by
hand-embroidery. The back OF the
blouse is perfectly plain. and the
white is attractively introduced as
vest ornamented with little buttons
matching in color the blouse.
1t is quite the fashion these days
to combine brilliant color with a
more subdued one, as Oxford gray and
Chinese blue. Many blue shades and
brown tones will be worm" says the
