It is said that he was in the act of carrying out his threat when Speclal Officer Harry Porter came up and dazed him with a blow from his club.

The Bennettt sisters will appear in a clever act. Speci- mens of fancy and burlesque skating will be given by George Morgan, who is an adept on the rollers.

Nation’s Chief Speaks of the Recent Glories of the Army. e WASHINGTON, May 21.—President Roosevelt to-day unveiled the memorial shaft erected at Arlington by the Na- tional Society of Colonial Dames in mem- ory of the soldiers who fell in the recen’ struggle between Spain and the United States. Around the platform an immense crowd gathered, among whom were many men who saw service in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. The ceremonieés were in charge of Ma- jor General John R. Brooke, commauder of the Department of the East, the mili- tary establishment being represented by a _battalion of engineers, a battallon of marines, a light battery of the Fourth Artillery, two squadrons of the Second Cavalry and over 500 veterans of the Spanish War, The services began with the playing of the “Dead March” from Baul and this was followed by a choir singing “‘Onward, Chiristian ~ Soldier.” Prayer was said by Bishop Satterlee and a Catholic priest znd the entire audience Joined in singing the national hymn, Lieu- tenant General John M. Schofleld, U. 8. A., retired, then read the address of the president of the National Society, Mrs. Justin W. R. Townsend. As the shaft was unveiled the artille fired the na- tional salute, after which President 5‘,‘;“?"“ delivered the following ad- ss: Mrs. President, and members of the soclety, and you, my comrades, and finally officers and men ‘of the regular army, whom we took our models In the war four years ago: It is pleasure to be here this afternoon to accept In |the name of the nation the monument put up by vour society to the memory of those who fell 'in tbe war with Spain—a short war, 2 war that called for the exertion of only 't merest fraction of the glant strength of this nation, but a war the effects of which will be felt through the centuries to come. It is emi- nently appropriate that the monument should be unveiled to-day, the day which succeeded that on which the free republic of Cuba took its place among the nations of the world, as a sequel to what was done by those men who fell, and by their comrades in '08. We went to war for a specific purpose. We made for Cuba a specific pledge and we re- deemed that pledge to the letter. And I think, my comrades, that we have pecullar reasons to be proud of one of our fellows who served with us in that war, and under whom during the last few years Cuba has taken these strides forward which have fitted it to stand alone—1 speak of General Leonard Wood. And great though the services were that General Wood rendered during the war, they have been surpassed by the inestimable service he has rendered in peace to Cuba, and therefore to our nation, for our interest was bound up in the success and welfare of Cuba. And & word here, where we meet to honor the memory of those who drew the great prize of death in battle, a word in reference to the survivors. 1 think that one lesson every onc who was capable of learning anything learned from his experience in that war, was the old, old lesson that we need to apply In peace quite | as mucb—the lesson that the man who does not care to do any act until the time for herofc action comes does not do the heroic act when the time does come. You remember, comrades, it is barely possible some of you re- member being the man who when you enlisted bad a theory that there was nothing but splen- dor and fighting and bloodshed in the war, and then had the experience at once of learn- ing that the first thing you had to do was to perfcrm commonplace dutles and -perform: them well, The work of any man in the campaign depended opon the resolutjon and n- telligence with which he started~about doing each duty as It arose, not walting until he could choose the duty that he thought suffi- ciently spectacular to do; doing the duty that came to hand. That is exactly the lesson that all of us need to learn in time of peace, It is not merely a great thing, but an indispensable tbing, that the nation’s citizens should be ready and willing to do for it at the time of need. What we need most in this republic is not special genius, is not unusual brilllancy, but the honest and upright adherence on the part of the masses of the citizens and their Tepresentatives to the fundamental laws of pri- vate and public morality, which are now what they have been during recorded history, and we shall succeed or fail in making In this republic what it should be made—I will go a little fur- ther than that—what it shall and must be made, according to the manner in which we resolutely set ourselves to the task of citi- zenship, which consists of doing the duties, private and public, which in the ageregat® make it ud.

The baggage took a trip over the ties, but were not damaged. The locomotive was counsider- ably wrecked. | Of the passengers only one sustained in- juries more serious than slight bruises. Mrs. J. G. Putnam was hurt about the head and back, but not seriously. Engineer Charles Brown stayed with the lever and was uninjured. Fireman A. P. Walker jumped and was picked up vnconscious. e was carried into the sprained ankle and a wrist in similar con- dition. The passengers told graphic tales of pitching over seats and of flying dishes in the buffet car. Many of them were badly frightened. It is difficult to determine the cause of the wreck. A careful examination re- vealed that the flanges were all intact and that none of the rails had spread. Probably a flange mounted the end of a switch rail and caused the trouble. The engineer sald he was a minute or two ahead of time and was runn!n? very slow- ly. Trains were delayed five, hours. ——— ¥LEEING FROM WRATH OF MODOC LYNCHERS REDDING, May 21.—Though none have known it except several acquaintances, who recognized him, Claude Morris, the from Modoc County, has been quietly staying in Redding for several days.

Pereira, who disappeared from home at noon on Mon- day, ended this morning at 19 o'clock, when an employe on the Finnell ranch discovered the little fellow sitting on the bank of Stony Creck, five miles from | home. The child immediately asked for something to eat, but seemed unconcern- ed and did not show any ill effects of his long fast. The search in the grain fields for miles around the Pereira house was prosecuted systematically yesterday and all last night, hundreds of men tramped the sur- rounding country in the hope of hearing | the cries of the little fellow. So thor- ough was the hunt,”and yet so unavail- ing, that eyery one had come to the con- clusion that the child had been kidnaped and a reward of $500 was offered for its recovery. How "the little fellow, whose second birthday occurred but several months ago, succeeded in traveling barefooted nve | miles over a route that at times lay ever rough hills and again through bruysh and | briar passes understanding. When found the child was actually playing ou the sandy bank of the creck. However, its delight when It saw its rescuer was piti- ful. Its first words were a petition for something to eat. The babe was hurried home and soon had a sufficlency of food to repay it for its two days' fast. Thsl little fellow’'s feet were somewhat bruised ! from traveling over the rough ground. buc it is believed that the consequences | of its extended journey and fasting will | not be serfous. Many of the neighbors cf Pereira are still of the opinion that the babg must have been kidnaped and left in the out- of-the-way spot where It was found. Their theory is that some enemy of the | father took this flendish way of gfllmng“ revenge, or elée that the kidnaper, be- | coming alarmed at the scope of the| search, was forced to abandon the child, and left it where it was quite likely to be found by some of the searchers. The | fact that the baby was very hungry when | it was discovered, however, indicates that | it must have had no nourishment for some hours at least. { HUNTERS FIGHT WITH BIG BEAR Two Brothers in Glenn -County Barely Es- cape Death.

PLEDGES LOYALTY TO ALLY Czar Reassures Lou- bet of Friend= ship. Troops of Russia Are Reviewed by the President. e Special Dispateh to The Call. ST. PETERSBURG, May 21.—To-day the people seem largely engaged in try- ing to size up the importance of President Loubet’s visit and to estimate its value in the scale of international politics. French journalists, who have arrived here in vast numbers, seem to have an idea that the visit and reception are more of an official and less of a general nature than had been supposed. In this idea the French newspaper rep- resentatives would seem from present ap- pearances to be right. The fact of the President remaining at Tsarskoe-Selo considerably limits the extension of the demonstration of the general popular dis- play of enthusiasm. It is understood that the rules as to general visiting there will be very strict, and that there will be no special encouragement given for the gath- erirg of large masses of the populace, All compliments of every possible kind will be paid to Russia’s guest, but there will be no immense public demonstrations. Russia does not think a ch needed. S oy REVIEW OF TROOPS. In fact, as the newspaper correspond- ents have already realized, the following of Loubet's movements will be none too eary a task. How are they going to fol- low him on te Gatschina and thence to Selo? The Russian Government realizing these difficulties has shown every inten- tion of good will toward the French jour- nalists, and as an extraordinary favor, in view of the trouble there will be in jour- neying to and from Tsarskoe-Selo, the Havas Agency correspondent and M. Cal- mette, director of the Figaro, will be iven quarters in the palace of Tsarskoe- lo. TSARSKOE-SELO.

Loubet. the Czarina. the Dowager Czarina and the Grand Duchess Sergius, in a carriage, passed be- fore the troops. They were attended by brilliant suites. The Imperial and Pre: dential cortege recefved an ovation from the large crowds of people which assem- bled to witness the military display. At the luncheon after the review the Czar offered the following toast: TOAST BY CZAR. “Mr. President: The troops whose march past you have just witnessed are happy to have been privileged to render honors to so highly esteemed a chief of state. The lively sympathies feit by the Russian army for the splendid army of France are well known. They constitute a real brotherhood of arms, which we can regard with all the greater satisfaction because these imposing forces are not destined to support one another aggres- sively, but on the contrary to strengthen peace and safeguard respect for those high prinel- ples which assure the weil-being and con- duce to the progress of nations. I ralse my glass to the prosperity and glory of the grand army of France. President Loubet replied: “Sir: I thank your Majesty for giving me the extreme pleasure of admiring the fine troops, whose proud bearing, martial step and brecision In maneuvering are evidence that the Russian army proudly maintains its high renown. Just as com- mon sympathies and wide interests have united the twc peoples, so the noble brotherhood of arms and reciproean;f- s imposing force menaces no one, but it has furnished Russia and France both a guar- antee for the exercise of their rights and an aegis under which they can in all tranquillity follow the fruitful labors which are rendering the two nations more prosperous and augmenting their power and legitimate influence. “In the name of the French army. which has not forgotten the honor which your Majesty paid it in attending its ma- neuvers, I drink to the prosperity and glory of the brave army of Russia.” NEW DESTROYER PERRY HAS REQUIRED SPEED WASHINGTON, May 21.—The Navy Department has received the report of the preliminary acceptance trial of the tor- pedo boat destroyer Perry, built by the Union Iron Works of San Franéisco.
