Tb crown puinee hid no chance t Ue.tnd himself. The assassins even tried to Kill the Ifciy pn nee, anuel. But xv here the f ubllc flnfl Hint subtle touch of nature that makes the . whle w Jd kin, is i.ke love diilayl by the Queen Amelle, w hen she risked ner iiieua can t-rron i) snieia tr win with her own body. The JearltxH sacrifice sh niMde was euch as only a mother has the atrerigth rand the love to make. Kigltl there is vhere Qhmti Anelle made a hit with every American and whexr she saved the whole affuir from being an aristocratic assassination of about it) much coj sequent So the American public as the assassination of jeaser. The vueun made the affair a roal tragedy which every American could feel most ketaiiy. S'he average American can not very well place himself in ine posu'ionmr an overbearing; ritocrat about to be shot down by his own subjects, but when you tell him of tx. mother's love, so great that it forgot even life Kneli; in an effort to save a child, you hit Mr. American, In a spot where he uraaHvitanuNt and he don't uare a cuss whether or not the mother was a queen or u wahwoman. The queen ivos only a mother, nort a queen, as she covered her son with her own body ml tried to beat back tke muzzles of the regicides rilies with bouit of fitters. Even that bouuet of blossoms striking the muzzles of smoking rilies, was .-sweetly pathetic. The queen was a real mothe-r again, a she sal all thrwngh the night with Iut hands clapped about the form or the crown prince's lifeless Jiody. Those are the things which here In America give the assassination it.s real touch of pathos ml which created sentiment against the regicides. The American public has the kef-nest tippreclaiion of a real woman or u Tel mother of any public ou earth and it doesn't matter whether the Ameri can public fi.nds herr iu the center of such a tragedy as occurred In Lisbon or whfther she appears as only a character in a cheap melodrama she wins the American applause and the American tears. Th real cause of the killing of the heads of the roal family, has not been made public. It may have been the result of an anarchistic plot, or It may have been a premajure plan to open a rebellion against the king. As in that part of It. the American public ,ls not greatly concerned. Nat urally there is considerable Interest In knowing all the harrowing details for the American public loves lis news. At the' same tima the future of Por tugal is not of prime ImjMirtsm-e to this country and so far as King Carlos la concerned, the American public hasn't had the pleasure of a very exten sive acquaintance. That was probably our good fortune; but as the king Is now dead, long live the king. No good American approves of asa.-sination for any cause whatsoever, but people reared under Ihe form of government such as King Carlos main- iBinet can not be expected to be so enlightened. The king evidently di rectly or Indirectly, paved the way for his own end. The best way to avoid being assassinated nowadays Is not to be a king, and so long as a person don't hive an ld fashioned crown stuck around the house somewhere and so long as he Isn't trying to govern a lot of people who don't want to be governed, he Is likely to mpJov peace and republican pros perity. The American public, however. If it could, would send its heart felt sympathies to Queen Amelie. She did more In ihose few terrible minutes to win her people than King Carlos ever did, no mailer If lit liU'J been the best king on earth which lie was not. It is to be hoped that the little Kinir Manuel will learn a lesson by his rough experience and that his days ami those of his people in the little coun try sandwiched onto Spain, may be full of peic,. and happiness. When the sun shines again In Lisbon, ii is to be hoped it will pot strike Its bright ray on Irselud gun barrels. Wlllard l'word: When the Albuquerque boost, is com., llonif on llwlr trip over tlie cut-oir they will not rind a better town than U'illaid. They won't find a town with as good railroad facilities, nor with such an abundant supply of ,,,,. waier. We might add that they will not find another town In which her citizens so thoroughly bellevi- and In which they are Investing their all with the belief that it will yield an abundant ncome.

Another thhiir which is even more surprising w e didn't know a title cost so blamed much. Thaw went to an a.-hmi f..r the killinu of Stanford White. Ha l Thiw been a cow puncher or i s-heeplo r.iei- or a day laborer, he w ould undoubtedly gone to the gallows.

Then the guard charged upon them, pursuing them down the street and riddling three of them with bullets. Tlundref! of the people Joined in the pursuit and the other band of assassins were made prisoners. 1 tie royal carriage had by this time been driven Into the qundrangie, and the gates of the arsenal were shut. The grief of the queen and Prince Manuel was heart-breaking. Within a few moments the queen mother, flip dowager queen, Maria Pla. the duke of Oporto, the king's brother, and the ministers of stale assembled, all weep Ing bitterly. Messages of condolence have been received from rulers throughout the world. The king of England was among the first to send a message find this was followed shorlly by one frnvn the Herman kaiser. Pope I,oo also sent a message and h-as ordered a spe clal mass In the Sistine chapel for the repose of the souls of the two mur dered men. The Spanish government has or dered the cruiser Princess de Anur ias to proceed to Ulsbon and the Tirli h fleet of cruisers at Gibraltar has also been ordered here. That which everyone has been ex poctlng for months', which the gov ernment vainly tried to prevent by repressive measures, has come to pass. Defied Hit i rafters. Premier Franco had defied the grafters and comiptlonists. 'His re form program had been frustrated by a parliament that was nt least partly venal. Then he attempted fn dispense with I 1, .. . .

Its response w.n th vfi icprvsMive measure that ap parently hastened the tragedy. Tliei Ijjst Si raw A decree was enacted giving wiuMici uniimneu power to repress revolutionary agitation In Portugal I his decree Is framed on the line, .f the bill recently introduced In the Spanish coite.s, but it is more sweep ing and arbitrary. It empowers me cabinet to expel from the kingdom or to exile to the colonies members or all associations that are conducting a campaign against public security. Parliamentary immunity is suspended. All persons sentenced for political agitation are deprived of civil rights, titles, decora tions, etc. The decree Is retroaeilve to January 21. The decree provides that siisoects shall be tried within two days of their arrest. No appeal from the first sen tence passed will be entertained. Causctl Many to I'lcc. This caused many republicans and even monarchists to flee the country to avoid the possibility of arrest. King Carlos had supported Premier Franco resolutely and many persons believed that the king and hs premier would stand or fall together. The masses of the people in Portu gal are ordinarily Indifferent to politi cal turmoil, but the growing severity of the measure; adopted by the pre mier, the many arrests, the searching of houses and the brutality of the po lice were beginning to arouse popular excitement not only In Lisbon Iml In tlie provinces. Franco Was llclcntlos. Premier Franco, however, remained inflexible. He was certain that he could control the elections which tnke place next March If in the meantime political leaders could be prevented from fomenting disorders, nnd he was determined either to banish or exile all suspects regardless of rank or po sition. The freedom of the press, public meetings and s:reet manifestations al ready had been suppressed and the street patrols maintained a show of force day und night. The Correeio. In its last Issue, used these words: "We are living in a reign of terror such as often precedes the downfall of a strong government." Most significant was this preamble to the decree which declared that these measures were necessary In or der that the country might not be deluged In blood. Within two hours after the promulgation of the drastic decree the town was deluged in blood Not for the lack of these autocratic measures, it appears, but because of I them and in spite of them. it Is now seen that for the las 5rii; month the stage has been setting for , this tragedy. For ful.y that time Lis bon, reflecting conditions throughout the kingdom, has been In constant turmoil. lolli Wire Itrutnl. Premier Franco was allowed a free hand. Absolutely inflexible, within the last week he announced n deter mination either to banish or exile all suspects regardless of rank or posi tion. It was not the rabble alone Unit felt the repressive measures. Here were conditions that were intolerable to people of the highest class as well as to those of the gutter. With power to send any citizen of high orniw degree Into exile or brin- Ishment on mere suspicion with par liamentary Immunity suspended, with persons, sentenced for alleged political agitation classed as criminals and de prived of civic rights, ti'les. decora tions, etc., afler a forced trial within two days of their arrest and with no rlifht of appeal conditions were widely regarded as Intolerable. Klii!f Was Warned. Carlos Was warned. His own rn, now dead beside him. an Innocent sac rifice to the blind rapacity of the rev olutionists, counseled moderation and the repression of Franco. Many re publicans, and even scores of mon.. nrchlsts. before fleeing the country t avoid the possibility of arrest, b: sought the king to pause and reflect Instead. Carlos resolutely supported the premier in every sleu he took, an yet nnotner sinister prediction wa made that king and premier woul stand or fall together.

T here have been numerous rumors of n rebellion with the object of plac ing Don Miguel on the throne, hut re cently these were not given serious consideration. Last June Don Miguel, through the medium of the newspapers of Vienna announced iits readiness to fill any vacancy in the Portugese throne arising from the constitutional llspute In that country.

"where are you? Say something for yourself." And with this he was carried onto the stage. The commotion was great evervbodv laughed Just to look at him. Well, boys," he said; "if I must I say something may you all have as I lear a sister as 1 have; and. girls I love you all." It was just like him, and those lit tle speeches that night looked rather "spiclous." everyone thought. The dance was over and they were on I heir homew ard Journey. "liuth. dear."
