snotber revolution, which was success
ful lu forcing Jlmlrie to resign, on
which the vice president, Vasques,
was Installed, to be succeeded in 1903
by Oenersl Morales, against whom the
present revolution Is directed. In 6an
to Domingo the president is elected for
four years, unless sooner "revoluted"
out of ofllce.
The people are of mixed Spanish,
negro and Indian blood. The govern

Ksnto Domingo is one of the most
beautiful of the West India islands.
It lies between Culm and l'orto ltleo.
In Peruana Bay it poanesses one of the
finest natural harlore in the world. It
was this port which President Grant
was especially anxious to secure as a
coaling station. The oldest settlement
made in the new world was on this
island, Columbus himself having
founded it. Here the great discoverer
was burled snd here for a number of
years was the capital of the HpanlsU
possessions to the new world,
At tho end of the eighteenth century
Spain ceded the eastern half of the
island to France, which held the west
em half. Soon after the entire coun
try under Toussalnt L'Ouverture gala
ed its Independence. In 1844 came tbe
rebellion of the eastern portion of the
Uland, resulting In the formation of
the present Dominican Republic.

York discharged her cargo at tbe port

thought to be an agreement of tbe con

tbe Insurgents, however, and the I'nlt

shelling the town of I'ajarito, In which
the rebels were encamped, afterward
landing a force of murines and driving

naturally led to further complications.

Game In Wyoming," a writer in tbe
Pall Mall Magazine tells of an exciting
meeting between himself and a large
gristly bear. Tbe interview was some
what unexpected on both sides, and
It Issted only a minute or two; but
while it did last it occupied tbe undi
vided attention of all the participant.
I chanced to be riding ahead, says
the author. "There's a bearl" whis
pered Jack, as a big gray head ap
peared over tbe fallen tree. What fol
lowed in the next few minutes takes
longer to tell than It did to happen.
As I sprang down from the saddle to
shoot, an enormous grizzly of the
largest kind Jumped up on the trunk
of the tree,-behind which he had been
feeding on a dead elk.
As I pulled the first trigger he
sprang down, all claws, hair and teeth,
and cbargedstralgbt at us. Tbe'shot
was a clean miss over his back as he
Jumped down; and here was grizzly
not thirty yards away, on a down
hill run, and obviously Intent on get

Tbe second bullet went home, right
In the center of the broad, furry
breast, as we afterward ascertained.
He turned a complete somersault, and
lighting on bis feet again, came on, ap
parently uninjured.
My rifle was now empty, and there
was no time to reload. The next few
seconds were a kind nf nliflitmnro T

me, swerved and bolted before I could
mount Grizzly, now only a few yards
away, was rising to strike with a gi
gantic, clawy, sinewy paw that could,
with a single blow, break a buffalo's
back or tear out all his ribs.
With a cold thrill down my back I
also swerved and bolted up the hill
for all I was ever worth In what Jack
afterward described as ten-foot
strides. lie, meanwhile, with unload

his horse fifty, yards away, and emp
tied his six-shooter at the bear with

he was assassinated.

the days of policemen, for "the Earl of
Albemarle attended In person, with n

were saved from being plundered by
tbe mob; and all persons unknown

reign of George III. o proposition was
made to use pen. Ink and paper, red
tnpelsra scouted the idea, and tbe use
of tally sticks was continued down to
the year 181M. In 1834 the large stock
was ordered to be destroyed, and In
stead of distributing them to the poor
of the neighborhood, some wiseacre
decided that they should be burned In
the stove of the House of Lords. The
stove became overheated, set fire to the
paneling, the paneling set tire to the
House of Ixrds and the House of
