In the triumphal arch and colonnade which is to be erected at Madison Square for the Dewey celebration, New York City is to hare a work which, in the opinion of the National Sculpture Society, will surpass any thing that baa before been realized lor such a purpose in sculpture dec oration. In general plan the arch will re semble the Arch of Titus. The Ro man design is altered, however, to lit It for location at tha intersection of four streets by haviug the maiu piers pierced on the east aud west axis of the arch by smaller openings, as is done in the Are de Triomphe in Paris. This leaves really four piers to the arch, for the decoration of which a aeries of bus reliefs aud groups is sug gested, depictiug the call to arms, the battle, the return of the soldiers and peaoe. At the sides of these groups may be placed heroic ligures of great American naval oliloers. Secretary Long, at the request of the society, suggested for representation in those places the name of Paul Jones, Decatur, Hull, Perry, McDonough, Fararfit, Porter aud Cushing, main entrance reliefs symbolizing BKgjH&nicrciul imp n tiiu.'u of N. w tlie group .-urm■ 11 n l ln lias been suggested a slup I'' of Victory m t!n> low kim ho I o- |'!a:oi '< Vl.stand w of llo' general M0';,,.1,1, for M, oils, .ii S' | Hare.

Of course, it wouldn’t have been the thing for Sir Thomas Lipton, tea merchant, Cup challenger and recent ly appointed Raronot, to come over here on the Shamrock without a coat of-arms. He might as well arrive without a yachting cap. So he has had a oo&t-of-arms made, and, honestly, he deserves great credit for the dem ocratic and unassuming way in which he has complied the emblem. For the crest he has designed two horny hands of labor, one bearing the flowers of the tea plant the other that, of the coffee plant.

Fidelity to his native country induces him to place upon the shield the Shamrock of Ire land, as well us the Thistle of Scot land, the country in which he made his lirst money. At the bottom of the shield is the born of plenty, aud his motto, “Labor Conquers All Things.” It is truly a fitting autobiography in pictures. The Dent School. The best and cheapest school of journalism is the country newspaper office. No oue can become a banker or a broker or a merchant by attend ing a commercial college. No more can a college course in journalism fit you for newspaper work. Theory is one thing; practice is another. If you aspire to enter the higher ranks, work on a country weekly as a starter. There is the best possible training for a young man who desires to become an accurate writer and a reporter of events. In the city one rarely if ever meets the people he writes about, and there are no consequences to be feared on that score. But in the country there is a personal accounting in sjora for the scribe who garbles or errs in statement of facts. This knowledge drills the habit of accuracy into ouc as nothing else will. The annual increase of population in the United States is about 1,000,000. NOVEL RIVAL TO THE LIQUOR SHOPS. Practical help to the poor, the ig norant, aud the sinning, this is the watchword of the day. The latest evidence of its working in the East Side of New York is the establishment of a tea-saloon at 76 Allen street. The Church Army is sponsor for the new undertaking, which is managed by Colonel H. H. Hadley, an enthusias tic worker in humanitarian affairs. Colonel Hadley has many sympa thizers in bis belief that hundreds ol people drink beer because it is the drink most easily obtainable, and that if other liquids were as cheap aud .s easy to get, the consumption of intox icating drinks would be greatly re duced. This is the experiment being tried at. The Open Door, which is the name of the new temperance venture. The house taken for the mission was one of the worst homes of vice in the crowded neighborhood. It was used to conceal so many kinds of law-break ing that its frequenters bud to be pro tected from visits of the police by a system of private alarms. In addition to this they bad secret means of egress, so that escape was possible in case of a raid. Colonel Hadley secured a three years’ lease of this disrepu table building, cleared it of its old tenants, freshly painted the dingy in terior, aud wrought a material as well as a moral transformation. The first floor of the building was altered from a bar of the lowest order, where clime and hatred were nursed, into the hu manitarian substitute, the tea-saloon. The effect ,of a bar is still retained,bul over the sinning counter no more del eterious drink than well-made tea ever passes. The equipments which rest on the counter as accessories to the drinks are bowls of sugar, pitchers of cream, and saucers of sliced lemon. Tea is served either hot or cold, to suit the desire of the patron, and it is also supplemented with a sandwich or a piece of pie of cake. The prices charged for these enjoy ments range' from one cent for plain tea to live cents for tea with solids, aud the price is the same whether the beverage is hot or iced. As it is the custom in the neighborhood where the tea-saloon is established for famijj.'i's to use the “growler” fo-T bringing drink saloon to the home, Colonel Hadley has tea on draught to sell by the quart for outside consump tion. He has even planned an im proved can for carrying it, with a central compartment for tea and an outside one for ice, with faucets arranged for drawing off either tea or ice water. In the back of the tea-saloon is ar ranged an assembly-ioom, where it is the custom to hold mission meetings every evening, consisting largely of attractive music, and into these meet ings the patrons wander in increasing numbers. Upstairs the house is divi ded into twelve rooms, all of which are furnished, and are rented to de sirable applicants at one dollar a week. The tea-saloon is open from 6 a. m. to midnight; its patrons are increas ing daily; and it is expected that it will be a formidable rival to the liquor saloon, and will prove the strongest weapon against alooholism -phi lanthropy has ever wielded in defence of the weak and ignorant.—Harper’s Bazar. WNot Alive at the Time. While passing Whitehall the other day a strauger to London asked a policeman if he could point out the window through which King Charles passed out to execution. The police man asked: “Who was he?" “King of England, of course,” was the an swer. “But when was that?” “Over two hundred years ago.” “Ah, ah! that was long before my time, sir. I only entered the force in 1562,” was the policeman's reply, “Sorry I can't tell you.” Japan has considerably more than half as many inhabitants as the United States, though our country is twenty two timss its area. For ib.VnicaJH Is Experiencing Trouble, A special from Havana says: In view of the fact that Colonel Bacallao, chief of the secret police, persisted in his declaration that General Juan Isidro Jiminez, the aspirant to the : presidency of Santo Domingo, was in Havana, either not having left, or i having returned, the military authori i ties telegraphed to Cienfuegos in structing Capt. Stamper, collector of customs, to ascertain whether Jimi nez was on the Menedez steamer and ' to take him under arrest if that should be the case. Just as the steamer was about leav ing Cienfuegos, Captain Stamper lo cated Jiminez and arrested him. Jim inez denounced the arrest as an out rage. He said that he had broken no I law and would not yield except to force. Captain Stamper replied that he was ready to use force if necessary and Jiminez then yielded, ‘remarking that he did so only because he could not help himself. Senor Frias, mayor of Cienfuegos, refused to make the arrest, claiming that General Jiminez was an old per sonal friend whom he had known in timately for years. When Jeminez was taken into custody, Senor Frias was found with a police inspector, in close conversation with Jiminez and j the latter’s secretary. It is believed the mayor was urging him to leave the steamer, to conceal himself and wait for a better opportunity. Captain Stamper informed Jiminez that he would make him as comfortable as possible, and after Jiminez and his secretary had packed their trunks they were accompanied by the chief of police and Captain Stamper to the Union hotel, where two bedrooms and a dining room were placed at their dis posal. General Jiminez will be kept under police charge until further advices are received from the governor general. There is much excitement among the people of Ceiufuegos over the affair. The sentiment is generally expressed that the authorities had no right to ar rest Jiminez, an unarmed citizen, go ing apparently to Santiago de Cuba, and the point is even made that, even if he were going to San Domingo, he would only be returning to his native j country. FAVORABLE TO DREYFUS. * Colonel Pioqiiart’n Evidence Showed That Prisoner Wan Innocent. Advices from Rennes state that when the Dreyfus courtmartial was re sumed Friday morning Colonel Pic qnart, former chief of tlio intelligence department of the war office, was called, continuing his deposition, which 1 was interrupted by the adjournment | of Thursday. Colonel Picquart discussed the secret dossier as being the mainspring of the condemnation of Dreyfus. His evi | deuce tends to show the prisoner’s in nocence. He took up the documents successively, referring to the writers and addressees of the letters as “A” and “B.” Among those present in court were Generals Zurlinden and Billot, former ministers of war. Maitre Mornard, who argued the case in behalf of the Dreyfus family for the revision of the prisoner’s sen tence, before the court of cassation, was present to assist M. Demange, of i counsel for the defense. NO OFFICE AT LAKE CITY. Mall Facilities Not Yet Resumed In Little South Carolina Town. The disposition of the Lake City, S.

Three Hundred Yaquls Swoop Down Up on a I>efenseles Burg. A dispatch from Chihuahua, Mexico, tells of an attack on the town of Cum uripa by a band of about 300 Yaqui Indians. The place was without military pro tection, but the Mexican citizens bar ricaded themselves in their houses and resisted the attack for ten hours, when the Indians withdrew. Several houses were burned by the Indians, and five men and one woman were killed. It is thought that a number of Indians were killed and wounded. SWELL CHAP SHOOTERS PULLED. Officer. Arrest Fifteen Guests of a Promi nent ltesort Hotel. A Chattanooga dispatch says: Con stable K. P. Miller raided a swell crap game late Thursday night at Lookout Inn, one of the swellest summer re sorts in the south. Pistols were drawn and it was feared trouble for the offi cers would result, but the hotel clerks kept it down. The affair caused quite a sensation. IrtK: SirucTs in ,'c * ro LOOT Ilitlß COMETS Desperate^^^BPut>fr° rn Battles With the Bonce PPprequent Occurrence. Sunday Paris waSthe scene of most serious disturbances, recalling some aspects of the commune. In response to an appeal of The Journal du Peuple and La Petit Republique, groups of anarchists and socialists gathered about 3 o’clock in the afternoon in the Place de la Republique. The police had taken precautions and there seem ed no danger of disorders. Sebastion Faure and Faberot, well known revolutionary anarchists, were the ringleaders. Faure, standing on the pedestal of the statue which rises in the center of the Place de la Repub lique, addressed the crowd. Among other things he said that the anarchists should be masters of the streets. The police interfered and disloged Faure and Faberot, making three ar rests. The crowd at this point dis persed, but a column of demonstrators headed by Faure and Henri d’Horr made for the Place de la Nation. The police broke through the column and a struggle for the mastery followed. Shots were fired and H. Goullier, com missary of eolice was twice stabbed with a knife. This threw the police into momentary confusion. The mob reassembled and ran towards the Place de la Nation. The police, re-enforced by a squad that had been held in reserve, made another attempt to stem the current, and fresh, fierce fighting occurred,three constables being wounded. Faure and d’Horr jumped into a passing street car that was going to the Place de la Republique, aud the car driver, on arriving there, gave a sig nal to the police, who immediately ar rested them both, together with two other anarchists, Joseph Ferrier and Jean Perrin. All were conveyed to the Chateau d’Eau barracks. Only d’Horr was found in possession of fire arms. Houses of Worship Demolished. In the meantime the anarchist mob retracted its course to the Place de la Republique, smashing the windows of religious edifices on the way. Suddenly, either at the word of command or in obedience to impulse, the column made a loop and curved toward the church of St. Ambroise, where the rioters smashed the win- dows. Proceeding thence toward the Fau bourg du Temple, which they reached at the coiner of the Rue Darboy and the Rue St. Maur-Popincourt, they formed up into a compact body. Hatchets were suddenly produced, with loqg knives stolen from the coun ters of shops, and a concerted rush was made on the church of St. Joseph. The aged sacristan, seeing the mob, hastily closed the outer gates, but these were soon forced open with hatchets and bars of iron. The mas sive oaken doors were then attacked. According to the first account the wild horde burst into the church, which instantly became a scene of pillage and sac.T.'Ag.'ie.

Advices from Manila state that one i lieutenant of the Twelfth infantry was killed and another seriously wounded while reconnoitering Saturday evening north of Angeles. The Americans encountered a large force of insurgents and drove them from their positions. Lieutenant Cole, of the Sixth infantry, with eighty men encountered 100 insurgents intrenched in the mountains of the island of Ne gros aud routed them after an hour and a half of severe fighting. The Americans had three men slight ly hurt. Nineteen dead insurgents were counted in the trenches. DEWEY FAVORS AUTONOMY? Correspondent of a London Paper, At Na- Interviews the Admiral. The Naples correspondent of The London Daily News telegraphs the substance of an interview he had with Admiral Dewey there during the ad miral’s recent visit. The admiral said in his judgment the Filipinos were capable of self-gov ernment and the way to settle the in surrection and to insure prosperity was to concede it to them. He de clared that he never was in favor of violence toward the Filipinos and re marked that after autonomy had been conceded, annexation might be talk ed of. HARRISON HAS FEVER. Inspector General Is Critically 111 In Cuba From Dread Disease. A dispatch from Santiago de Cuba says that Major Russell B. Harrison, inspector general, is critically ill with yellow fever. The disease had been progressing for three days, although not pronounced yellow fever until Sunday afternoon. The ease is the first to occur at Cristo. * sticks, ornaments and posts from high altars were thrown down and trampled under foot. The crucifix above was made the target for missiles and the figure of the Savior was fractured in several places. Then, while raucous voices sang the “Carmagnole,’’the chairs were carried outside, piled up and set on fire in the center of the square fronting the church. When this stage was reached the crucifix was pulled down aud thrown into the flames. Suddenly the cry was raised that, the statue of the Virgin had been forgotten, aud the crowd returned and tore this down also. Meanwhile the sacristan, who had been captured by the anarchists, es caped and called the police and repub lican guards, who promptly arrived with many constables. They were compelled to fall back in order to form up into line of defense, as the anar chists attacked them fearlessly with knives. At length the officers began to train the mastery. A score of anarchists took refuge in an adjacent house. Others intrenched themselves in the belfry aud fiercely defended themselves by showering missels on the republi can guards, bnt finally they were dis lodged. Twenty anarchists were ar rested, taken to the police station, searched and found to be carrying re volvers, loaded sticks and knives. When the police entered the church the anarchists had just set fire to the pulpit. The interior Of the edifice was a complete wreck. Several valuable old pictures that can never be replaced were ruined. There is no change in the situation at the building in the Rue de Chabrol, M. Jules Guerin and his anti-Semite companions are entrenched in a state of seige against the police who have orders for their arrest. An attempt was made to fire the choir of St. Joseph’s with petroleum, and the firemen were called to quench the flames. Several parishioners were severely mauled in their efforts to defend the church from sacrilege. The church is situated in the poorest quarter of the city. No disorders of any kind oc curred in the fashionable districts. It is much feared that Sunday’s scenes were due to weakness the gov ernment displayed over the Guerin af fair. The government’s desire to avoid bloodshed has been misinterpreted with the worst result. It appears that the anarchist de monstration was decided upon at a meeting held Saturday night. The Journal du Peuple, edited by Sebastian Faure, published a mani festo denouncing the military party, the anti-Semites, the monarchists aud the priests, and urged its supporters to meet force with force. “Should Dreyfus be convicted,” said the manifesto, “it will be triumph of the bandits. Should he be acquitted, the military section will be in open re bellion.” WORK OF THE MORMONS. President Rich Issues a Statement Show ing Progress In the South. The report of President Rich of the Mormon society issued last Saturday, shows that 490 elders are laboring in southern fields, and that during the week these walked 9,260 miles; visited 3,500 families, and held 950 meetings. The report says in the Georgia con ference 67 elders are at work, and during the week they walked 909 miles and visited 169 families. They were refused entertainment 37 times. Three New Cases of Bubonic. Advices from Madrid state that three cases of the bubonic plague are re ported from Oporto. They are said to be of a mild character. WILL ROOT RESIGN? Story Is Afloat That New Secretary of War Is Already Tired of His Job. An interesting story is going the rounds in Washington that Secretary Root will resign his portfolio. In a word it is rumored that the secretary is already sick of his job and that he will be forced to abandon his post in humiliation if he does not proteat himself by an early resignation. In view of the fact that the new secretary of war has had charge of the department but a few weeks, this is certainly a remarkable story to find a start anywhere. But it is going around and comes from apparently good au thority. MERCIER TO BE ARRESTED And Orders Will Be Issued To Release Captain Dreyfus, It Is Said. The Paris correspondent of The London Sunday Special says: “The government, I understand, has decided to artist General Mercier. It is rumored that Orders will he given to withdraw the case against Dreyfus, it having been proved that the docu ments relied establish his gnilt are forgeries.
