BOULANGERS PLATFORM,
M. Deroulede made a speech at 8
meeting of the Patriotic League in Paris,
France, on Sunday. He spoke in terrni
of warm praise of Gen. Boulanger. Re
ferring to the accident to the Russian
imperial train, he expressed sympathj
with the Czar and rejoiced over his es
cape from harm. The speech was greatly
applauded, especially the reference to
Gen. Boulanger. The Gaulois says thal
the government intends to dissolve th«
Patriotic League. Access to the ban
quetting hall to outsiders was barred by
the police, who prevented the proposed
{mblic reception. The guests, on arriv
ng,, were merely greeted with shouts ol
“Vive Boulanger” and “a bas Floquet.*
A few arrests were made, but the pro.
ceedings were, in the main, orderly. A<
the conclusion of the banquet, which
followed the meeting, Gen. Boulanger
made a speech in which he said: “I anj
more a patriot than a soldier. I ardently
desire peace,* not the peace which is de
manded, but a peace imposed by a firm
*hd dignified attitude. That is the only
peace acceptable to French hearts.”

The Osseruatcre Romance states that it
is unable to either confirm or deny the
report that the Pope is to leave Rome in
the event of war. It thinks, however,
that he would leave, though regretfully,
if the Italian government further con
tracted the iron circle that confines him
and deprived him of all freedom in re
spect to his acts and communication with
the Catholic world, or if his holiness had
reason to consider that Rome was no
longer a sure residence, either from a
material or personal standpoint.

made of the matter.

The trouble with the local railway
switchmen at Indianapolis, Ind., which
has been pending several days, reached
its culmination Thursday. The superin
tendents declined to hold further confer
ence concerning the demands of the men,
and three-fourths of the employes in the
yards about the city, closed work. Some
little delay resulted to the passenger
trains, the strikers blockading the belt
line and some of the crossings with
freight cars, but the tracks were soon
cleared. The trouble is the result of a
demand by the men for $75 per month of
26 days, and 10 hours a day; also the
addition of one man to each switch en
gine crew. This demand the company
decline to entertain. In the yards of the
Belt Railway company west ot the city,
a party of strikers compelled three en
gineers to draw the fires of their loco
motives.
JUMPED TO DEATH.
The programme at the Columbus, Ga.,
Exposition on Thursday, closed with a
tragedy that will long be remembered by
those who witnessed it. The crowd in
attendance was the largest that has yet
passed through the gates, many drawn
jither to witness the balloon ascension
jnd parachute jump of Prof. Vandegrift.
A high wind prevented an ascent, but at
A o’clock he notified them that the wind
having subsided he would go up, and at
once proceeded to inflate the balloon. In
a few moments the vast air ship had
lifted itself from the earth and the dar
ing man was swinging from the trapeze
rope in the air. He performed his usual
wonderful feats as he ascended, and
when about half a mile high, and just as
he had pulled himself back on the bar
and was kissing his hand to the eager
gazers below, the balloon burst. Women
screamed and men stood paralyzed, ex
pecting to see the'daring aeronaut dashed
to the earth a mangled mass, but with
wonderful presence of mind he cut the
Jiarachute loose, and descended with
ightning rapidity some hundred feet, its
vast wing 9 unfolded and Vandegrift
swung it from beneath the falling mass
of canvas, which came to earth like a
wet rag. The crowd greeted the narrow
escape with thundering applause,
and the parachute sailed westerly.
The relief was but momentary, when the
|ry arose “He is going into the river,”
Bid a vast crowd of men rushed to the
sank, an eighth of a mile away. The
larachute, with its priceless burden of
|uman life, sank slowly into the rushing
current of the Chattahoochee, just above
the jetties and near where two young
men, John Dirkin and C. H. Hamburg,
who had been down the river duck hunt
ing, had anchored their boat to watch
the ascent of the balloon. As he struck
the water he saw them and cried: “Bring
your boat here; come quick, for
sake.” Casting anchor they pnliod
him, and both going to the forward end
of the boat and catching him and the
parachute, tried to pull him in, but the
great weight of the three men and the
parachute sunk the end of the boat,
which fast filled with water. Seeing
that the boat was sinking they turned
him loose, and rushed to the other end
to restore the equilibrium. The boat,
which was now half filled with water,
floated away and the unfortuuate man
sank entangled in a mass of rope about
the now saturated parachute, to rise no
more in this life. He was bound to the
parachute, else he could have swam to
the bank. The body was recovered a
few hours later. F. H. Vandergrift,.tha
unfortunate man, was about 24 years of
age; was born at White Sulphur
Springs, West Virginia, and made his
first ascent in a balloon and jump with a
parachute in August, this year, since
which time he hal made forty-six suc
cessful ascents and jumpu.
GERMAN AFFAIRS.
The German Richstag assembled on
Thursday at Berlin. The emperor
opened the session in person. In his
speech he said the tours he had recently
made, convinced him that the desire for
imperial unity was deeply rooted in the
people. The emperor made no refer
ence to any military bills or credits and
touched but briefly upon East African
affairs. Settlements in Africa are a mat
ter of interest to Germany. He said in
the task of winning Africa to Christian
morality, friendly England and its par
liament had recognized a century ago
that they must begin by repressing tne
trade in negroes and slave hunting.
With reference to foreign relations he
said: “Our relations with ail foreign
powers are peaceful. My efforts have
been unceasing to strengthen this peace.
The alliance with Austria and Italy has
do ot-.er object. To bring without ne
cessity, the miseries even of a victorious
war upon Germany would be incompati
ble with faith and my du
ties towards the German people.”

Caharus county, and about two months
ago Garrison was tried by his church for
conduct unbecoming a minister in refer

accordingly, when he had preached his
farewell sermon to his congregation at
Center Grove church, expecting to leave
for conference Monday, he was told that
parties on the outsidt? wi«hed to see him.
