His vindication is twofold, the supreme court first an- nouncing its decision establishing the entire innocence of the accused man, and the ministry later deciding to pre- sent an urgent bill in parliament re- storing Dreyfus to the army with ad- vanced rank and otherwise giving the government's most ample reparation. The decision of the court was a foregone conclusion, as exhaustive in- quiries had completely demolished the fabric of the accusation against Drey- fus, showing that the real culprit was Major Count Esterhazy. The decision therefore annulled the condemnation of the Rennes court martial and or- dered that the acquittal be posted and published throughout France. The decision of the court held that as all the accusations against the ac- | cused fell to the ground there is no necessity for a new trial, and conse- quently the judgment in condemnation is annulled as unwarranted by the evi- dence. The ministers held a protracted spe- cial session at the Elysee Palace un- der President Fallieres, and deter- mined on the government's course in carrying out the decision. The text of two bills was’ formulated, which will | be introduced in the chamber of dep- uties, concerning respectively Dreyfus and Colonel Picquart, with the object of restoring both to the ranks they would have held if they had continu- ously served in the army. Dreyfus consequently will be nominated a ma- jor with eventual early promotion to a leutenant colonelship. Picquart will immediately become a brigadier gen- eral. Dreyfus’ name also will be in- seribed on the list for the Legion of Honor, but he will not be directly nom- {nated to that distinction, though prob- ably a decree placing him on the list will shortly appear. DUEL OVER DREYFUS CASE French Under Secretary of State Dan. gerously Wounded. Paris, July 14.—The scene of tumul- tuous disorder which marked the en- actment of the law restoring Alfred Dreyfus to the army was followed by a bloody duel, in which Under Secre- } tary of State Sarraut was dangerously wounded by the sword of M. Pugliesi- Conti. The duel assumed the aspect of a veritable combat between the government and the opposition, as M. Sarraut’s seconds were Ministers Cle menceau and Thomson, while M. Pugliesi-Conti's were M. Millevoye and Genera! Jacquet, who were drawn from the elements which bitterly re- sist the government's rehabilitation of Dreyfus. Despite this sanguinary conflict, laws were finally enacted by the cham- ber of deputies reinstating Dreyfus, who obtains the rank of a chief of squadron of artiilery, and Picquart, who is made a brigadier general. Both houses were overwhelmingly favorable to Dreyfus and Picquart. Throughout the day feeling was stirred intensely between the Dreyfus and anti-Dreyfus elements. This was heightened by flerce attacks by Dreyfusists against : General Mercier and other prominent officers who were Dreyfus’ condemnation. BIG FIRE AT FRANKLIN, VA. Portsmouth Asked For Aid to Save the Town. Norfolk, Va., July 17.—The mayor of Franklin, Va, in a message to the chief of the fire department of Ports- mouth, says the whole town is threat- ened by fire and has asked for assist- ance. The Seaboard Afr line arranged to take the Portsmouth fire depart- ment to the scene on a special train. Society Woman Marries Riding Master New York, July 16.—~Mrs. Fanny Burke-Roche, of New York and New- port, has become the wife of Aurel Batonyi, the riding master and whip, and they are now in Europe. An- nouncement of the marriage was made by Frank Work, father of Mrs. Burke-Roche at his home in this city. Batyoni has been in the United States about 15 years. He is well known as a riding master, and has had among his pupils many wellknown New Yorkers. Mrs. Purke-Roche has al- ways been a prominent figure in so- clety here and in London. She se- cured a divorce from James Boothby Burke-Roche in 1896 at Wilmington, Del. . —— Subscribe for the WATCHMAN. responsible for “It’s the unexpected that happens, you koow,’’ said the slow boarder.

The fact that a good thing is pever wastod on the public is strikingly illustrated by the increas - ing popularity of “The Philadelphia Record.’ True merit is aiways appreciated if backed by en terprise, w hether it be in a eake of soap or in a newspaper. The spurious article, or the one that is not up to a competitive standard is soon left behind in the race for popular favor. There are older newspapers than “The Record,” and papers that have shot upaard like skyrockets, with a flash of ephemera! brilliancy, only to come down again like charred sticks. But “Ihe Record” has advanced steadily and ir- resistably year by year since 23 years ago it set the pace as & pioneer one cent paper of America. Since then it has never retrograded; it has never even stood still, and to-day its circulation exceeds that of any other newspaper published in the State of Pennsylvania, with an influence that is felt all over the country. Continued success is never accidental. It is possible to stumble into luck as one stumbles into a hornet's nest, with just about as much chance of winning out in the end. But luck has pever entered into the success of “The Record.” That success has been due to a keen insight directed toward the public mind, an ability to gee at a glance what the public wanted in the way of a newspaper, and then to supply that want. “The Record” has never attempted to | forcejdown the public's throat a style of jour- | nalism that was inherently distasteful jo it. | The management of “The Record” is tobe | congratulated on its adherence to these prinei. | ples that have marked the paper's entire career, | as well as upon the excellent business methods | that have won!the confidunce and esteem of its | great advertising patronage.
