today, a monarchy still under the
rule of the boy king, Don Manuel.

If the reglc'dea who let fly the
fatal volley believed that their act
weuld set fir the flames of rebel
lion, upset the government and es
tablish a republic, they have been
grievously mistaken.
The house of Eracansa ha Dald Its
toll for the folll of Its head and ap-
perently the dynasty has aaved Its
throne. Lisbon Is quiet today as It
waa last night. The ahopa are re
opening. Passenger are seen, on the

Decorators are beg'nnlng to shroud
the publlo buildings In black.

quiet. At Oporto a battal on of In
lantry .revolted upon hearing the
newa of the aaaaastnatlon and de
clared for the republic, but the loy
al troopa arrested the , mutineers
without a fight. This la the only
news of any trouble occasioned oy
the blow that atruck the ruling
house.
There are without a doubt, hun
dreds of people In Lisbon and the j
kini.-m who would welcome a re
public, but the disaffected ones are
without a leader, without a detinue
plan of action and without the pow
er of working In co-operation.

King Carlos "of Portugal and the
crown prince Louis Philippe, were
assassinated late Saturday. The king's
aecond eon, the Infant Manuel, waa
slightly wounded, but Queen Amelle,
who atrove to save the crown prince's
life by throwing herself upon him,
was unhurt . . -
A band of men waiting at the cor
ner of the Prado de Commerclo and
the Rue de Arsenal suddenly sprang
toward the open carriage In which the
'royal family were driving to th pal
ace and, leveling carbines which they
had concealed upon them, fired.
The king and crown prince, against
.whom the attack was directed, were
each shot three times, and they lived
' only long enough to be carried to the
1 marine arsenal nearby, where they
, expired. Almost at the first shot the
,klng fell back on tha cushion dying,
and at the same time the crown prince
was seen to half rise and then sink
back on the seat . Queen Amelle
Jumped up and threw herself toward
the crown prince In an apparent ef
fort to save his life at the risk of her
own, but the prtnee already had re
ceived his death wound. The police
guard fired upon the assassins' and
killed two of them. A third was cap'
tured and Is believed to have com
mitted suicide In prison.
The royal family were returning
from Villa Vicoaa, -where they had
been sojourning, and were on their
way from tha railroad station to the
palace. A strong guard waa la at
tendance, because of the recent up
rising In the city, and th discovery
of a plot to assassinate Premier Fran
co and overthrow the monarchy. But
tha band of murderers had aeleeted
the 'most advantageous spot for their
crime, for they were concealed until
the vehicle had come Into the Prado
de Commerclo, a large square.
Before any of the guard were aware
of what was happening the assassins
leaped to the carriage apd' Instantly
a fusllsde of shot rang out la a
moment . alt waa terrible confuslv
the king and crown prince being shot
down without the slightest chance to
save themselves. Police guard
sprang upon the regicides, the num
ber of whom I somewhat uncertain,
and killed two and captured another,
the one said to hav committed sui
cide In prison. It I charged that one
of the murderers was a Spaniard.
The bodies of the king and crowi.
prince were removed from the arse
nal In two closed carriages to the
royaf palace, the late residence of the
king, and escorted by municipal
guards, mounted.
Crime Cunningly Arranged.
Th detail of the murder show
that they were cunningly arranged.
The fact that the royal family were
returning from Villa Vicoaa had been
made public In advance and the au
thorities had arranged 'what they
considered an effective guard .along
tha route which the royal carriage
waa to take. The trip from Villa VI
coaa wa without accident
The king and hi family returned at
the end of a day of greatest excite
ment In the city, on account of the
wholeaale arrests and the continual
discovery of new depots of arms and
bombe; A great throng was grouped
about the Barrier railroad station
and the neighboring streets, : when
the members of the royal family dis
embarked for the purpose of driving
across the Tagus In the limits of Lis
bon.
The carriages awaited them before
the landing stage and the king and
queen and the two princes entered
the leading carriage, which started
Immediately, wheeling Into the Pra
do de Commerclo. Suddenly the sharp
crack of a carbine startled the assei
blag. Then the air was filled with
a succession of sharp reports and th
king wa seen to Jump up and reach
for his throat, then to drop back on
the cushions. The crown prince al
most simultaneously was seen to col
lapse and fall toward tha aide of the
carriage,, while the queen, driven to
frensy, waa seeking to save the crown
prtnee and the Infant Manuel by
shielding them with her body.

TO BREED BISON-CATTLE.
Experiment for the Government try
"BuKalo" Jones of Topes.
The cross-breeding of buffalo with
cows and of Persian sheep with do
mestic sheep has been undertaken by
"Buffalo" Jones of Topeka. He is
conducting his experiments under the
direction of the Agricultural depart
ment In a forest reserve of 40.000
square mile near th Grand Canyon
in Arlaona, says the Kansas City. Star.
The house agricultural committee
la holding hearing on proposed ap
propriations for the bureau of ant
ma! industry of the agricultural de
partment and Mr. Jones made
statement before the committee In
support of some of the proposed ex
penditures.
In the forest reserve Is a herd of
about 100 buffalo which Mr. Jones
said were in splendid condition. For
breeding purposes he had shipped to
the reserve several fine Galloway
cows. The cross Is a large animal
with the long hair of the. buffalo.
Th hides, he aald, were aa valuable
tor robe aa those of th buffalo. The
flesh la no coarser than that of cat
tle. Mr. Jones informed the commit
tee that he would proceed with his
cross breeding experiment until he
had demonstrated that the breeding
of buffalo and cow wa entirely
practicable, " ' -
He also said that his experiment
In breeding Persian cheep with do
mestic sheep bad proved successful
The result of this breeding is a sheep
which, he says, haa a . finer flavor
than that of the domestic sheep be
cause it is tree from the pronounced
mutton taint, to which many persons
object The wool la finer than that
ft the Persian sheep and Mr. Jones
predicts that it will be more desirable
for wearing apparel. There , was no
doubt, he believed, that the cross
would be more valuable for both ita
wool and flesh.
Agricultural department officials
are following the experiments by Mr.
Jones with interest Recently the
bureau of animal Industry has de
voted much attention to experimental
cross breeding and this year Secre
tary Wilson recommended an Increas
ed appropriation for thla branch of
the agricultural department's work.
