Scenes of French Revolution
May Be Duplicated in
Kingdom of Portugal
LisVn, Nov. 2j—Tne scenes of the
French revolution, cn a small sc..le,
may he duplicated in Portugal, it
new sec ms inevitable that the mon
archy must give way to a re
public. Insurrectionists surround tin
palace of King Carlos, and th
royal m march is a prisoner in hb
own castle. The grievances of the
populace of Portugal have been aug
mented by the aet of the King in sus
pcndii g the trial of offenders by
juries and placing affairs under mili
tary centred. The military authori
ties have condemned hundreds ti.
death, and the people have determined
to overthrow the monarchial form of
government and hav s a lepublie.
Spokane, Nov. 2G — A telepl o i
communication from Clarence fc'.Dar
rov, chief counsel for Adams, from
Rathdnun, says that the jury in the
Adams case has disagreed, stun ing
eight for acquittal and four for con
viction. This is a second time a jury
has disagreed in the tiial of A ams
Cn the charge of killing Tyler. Then
will b • no retrial of the case in Idalu
as the p;- .secution realizes its inabii
■t/ to secure a conviction, and the ex
pcns?s of trial are more than the
state can stand.
Adams will be taken to Colorado to
sund trial for the murder of Arthur
^'Jiiins at Tiliuride, during the strike
there.

Preferred Stock Canned Goods
At* Pkcited Wherever the Beit »ro Grown
That is the secret of their exquisite Flavor. V '-rred Stock Pincapoje,
for instance, is grown, ripened and canned . under the sunny skies
of Hawaii. Pineapples brought to :hh. c untry and then canned must bo
Sicked before fully ripe or they won’t keep—and the flavor is
at. Hawaiian Pineapple is the best grown. Every morning, the
ones ripened to their‘‘spicy best’’are gathered, taken into the can
nery, close at hand, peeled and cored by special cutters operated by
bright, tidy Hawaiian girls. All the tough, fibrous center is re
moved, and the sun-gold slices from the best part of the pmeapp.e
are then packed into Preferred Stock cans.
