I Art’s Tribute to Dewey.?
■Roman in Resign and Vitvcti $ *
m 'dJith Side (Opening*.
In the triumphal arch and colonnade
which is to he erected at Madison
Square for the Dewey celebration,
New York City is to have a work
which, in the opinion of the National
Sculpture Society, will surpass any¬
thing that has beforo been realized
for such a purpose in sculpture dec¬
oration.
In general plan the arch will re-
eemble the Arch of Titus. The Ro¬
man desigu is altered, however, lo fit
it for location at tha intersection of
four streets by having the main piers
pierced on the east and west axis of
the arch hy smaller openings, as is
done in the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
This leaves really four piers to the
sreb, for the decoration of which a
aeries of has reliefs aud groups is sug¬
gested, depicting the call to arms, the
battle, the return of the soldiers and
peace. At the sides of these groups
__^tuericair may he placed naval heroic officers. figures ^Secretary oj^great
TGong, at the request of the society,
Biiggested for representation in those
places the name of Paul Joues,
Decatur, Hull, Perry, McDonough,
Farragut, Porter and Cuslmip\
Over tlie main entrance ' will
be has reliefs symbolizing
the commercial importance of New
York. For the group surmounting
the aroh has been suggested a ship
with a figure of Victory in the bow
drawn by four sea-horses. The plans
include also a reviewing-stand which
shall be a part of the general scheme
of decoration for Madison Square. It
is plunued to have it decorated with
groups symbolic of Greater New York
aud the five boroughs, and with fiags
to make it contras't in color with the
masonry aud sculpture effects of the

of doing the work in the short time
remaining, the roll was called for
pledges of work and co-operation,
Every member who was present at the
meeting pledged himself withhut re¬

A Sad Ca*e.
Dr. Chargem—“Your friend needs
vigorous treatment; I never saw a
man in such a state of meutal depres-
eion. Can’t you convince him that
the future holds some brightness for
him?”
Sympathetic Friend—“That is un-
fortunately impossible. He has diawn
his salary for three weeks ^ihead and
•pent the money.”—Pearson’s Weekly,
Arm« of tlie Hlmniroi’k'i Owner.
Of course, it wouldn’t have been
the thing for Sir Thomas Lipton, tea
merchant, Cup challenger and recent¬
ly appointed Barouet, 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 coat-of-arms made, and, honestly,
he deserves great credit for the dem¬
ocratic aud unassuming way in which
lie has complied the emblem.
For the creKt he has designed t wo
horny hands of labor, one bearing the
flowers of the tea plaut the other that
of the coffee plant. These betoken his

cess in the Fidelity to his

upon the shield the Shamrock of Ire¬
land, as well as the Thistle of Scot¬
land, tho country in which he made
his first money. At the bottom of tlie
shield is the horn of plenty, and his
motto, "Labor Conquers All Things.”
It is truly n fitting autobiography ill

The Bout School*
The best and cheapest school of
journalism is the country newspaper
office. No one 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 aud a reporter of
events. In the city one rarely if ever
meets the people he writes about, aud
there ave no consequences to be feared
on that score. But in the country
there is a personal accounting in stora
for the soribe who garbles or errs in
statement of facts. This knowledge
drills the habit of accuracy into
as nothing else will.

undertaking which is mauaged bv
Colonel H. H. Hadlev an enthusias-
tic worker in humanitarian affairs.
Colonel Hadlev has many symna
thizers in his belief that hundreds ol
people drink beer because it is the
drink most easily obtainable, aud that
if other liquids were as cheap and as
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 80 many kinds of law-1,i >ak-
system of private atoms In addihSh
to this they had secret means , of
egress so that escape was possib# in
table building, cleared it of its old
tenants, freshly painted the dingy in-
tenor, and wiought a material as wel
as a moral transformation. The first
n floor of , the building v was altered i from -
a i bar of t 4.1 the i lowest oruer, where i crime •
aud hatred were nursed, into the hu«
mauitariau substitute, the tea-saloon.
The effect of a bar is still retained,but
over the shining counter no more del-
eterious drink than well-made tea
ever passes. Tlie 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 sewed either hot or
cold to suit the desire of the patron,
and it is also supplemented With a
sandwich or a piece of pie or cake.
The prices charged for these enjoy-
meats range from one cent or plain
tea to five 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 families
to use the “growler” for bringing
drink from the saloon to the home,
proved can for carrying it, with a central
compartmeut for tea and an outside
one for ice, with faucets arranged for
drawing oft' either tea or ice water.
In the back of tho tea-saloon is ar¬
ranged an assembly-room, where meetiligs it is
the custom to hold mission
every evening, consisting largely of
attractive music, and into these meet¬
ings the patrons wander iu increasing
numbers. Upstairs the house is divi¬
ded into twelve rooms, all of which
ave furnished, aud 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 alcoholism tV_\ -phi-

JIMINEZ UNDER ARREST.
Candidate For Dominican Throne
Is Experiencing Orgat
Trouble,
A ipecial from Havana saya: In
view of the fact that Colonel Bacallao,
chief of the secret police, persisted in
pii:r , ,„' , r
presidency of Santo Domingo, was in
Havana, either--not having left, or
having returned, the military authori¬
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 Cieufuegos, Captain Stamper lo-
cated Jiminez and arrested him. Jim-
inez denounced the arrest as an out-
rage. He said that he had broken no
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 au old per-
sonal friend whom he had known in-
timatcly for years. When Jeminez
was taken into custody, Senor Frias
was found,with a police inspector, in
close conversation with Jiminez and
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 'T aR comfortab ‘ e “
possible, , end , after Jiminez T . and his
secretary had packed their trunks
they were accompanied by the chief
<lf P olice and Captain Stamper to the
Union hotel, where two bedrooms and
a (lining room were placed at their dis-
T,0 ?. ab
General Jiminez will be kept under
police charge until further advices are
' e ceived fro “ tbe governor general,
rher® . w much excitement among the
people of Ceinfuegos over the affair.
JJ 1 ® sentiment is generally expressed
that the authorities bad no right to ar-
rest Jiminez, au unarmed citizen, go-
ing apparently to Santiago de Cuba,
aud tbe P oint is even raade that, even
if h f wer e going to San Domingo, he
woa,donl J 1 J be returning to his native
country.

ANARCHISTS RULE IN PARIS
w
They Take Possession of the Streets In the
French Metropolis.

Desperate and Stubborn Battles With the Police
of Frequent Occurrence,
Sunday Paris was the scene of most
serious disturbances, recalling some
aspects of the commune. In response
an a PP eid Journal dul euple
and La Petit Bepublique, groups of
anarchists and socialists gathered
about 3 o’clock in the afternoon in the
pi ace de la Bepublique. The police
bad taken precautions and there seem-
ed n0 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 Rep’ub-
liq U e, addressed the crowd. Among
0 ther things he said that the anarchists
should be masters of the streets.
The police interfered and disloged
Faure and Faberot, making three ar-
re sts. The crowd at this point dis-
persed, but a column of demonstrators
beaded by Faure and Henri d’Horr
raa ,i e f or the Place de la Nation. The
police broke through the column and
ft struggle for the mastery follo'wed.
Shots were fired and H. Goullier, com-
missary of nolice was twice stabbed
with a knife. This threw the police
; n t 0 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,
a nd 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 Bepublique, and the car
driver, on arriving there, gave a sig-
na l to the police, who immediately ar-
rested them both, together with two
other anarchists, Joseph Ferrier and
Jea „ 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,

Hatchets were suddenly produced,
witb lo,1 S knives stolen from th«.coun¬

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 sacrilege. Altars and sta¬
tues were hurled to the floor and
smashed; pictures were rent; candle-

DEWEY FAVORS AUTONOMY?
«
Correspondent of a London Paper, At Na¬
ples, 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 aud 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.

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 and
thrown into the flames. Suddenly ti /"
cry was raised that the statue of the
Virgin had been forgotten, aud the
returned and tore this down
also.
MeaDwhile the sacristan, who had
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 gain
the mastery. A score of anarchists
took refuge in an adjacent house.
Others intrenched themselves in the
belfry and fiercely defended themselves
by showering missels on the repuMi-
can guards, but finally they were dis-
lodged. Twenty anarchists were nr-
rested, taken to the police station,
searched and found to be carrying re-
velvets, 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. Judes 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 werte 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-
curded in much tke-fasbio»able feared that jfistriets*-* Sunday’s
It is
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 and
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 walked9,260 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.

WILL ROOT RESIGN?
Story Is Afloat That New Secretary of War
I* Already Tired of His Job.
An interesting Btory is going the
rounds in Washington that Secretary
Root will resign his portfolio. In a
word it is rumored that the secretary
is already siek of his job and that he
will be forced to abandon his post in
humiliation if he does not protect
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 Order* 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 arrest General Mercier.
It is rumored that orders will be given
to withdraw the case against Dreyfus,
it having been proved that the docu¬
ments relied upon to establish his
,
guilt are forgeries. ”
