PARIS, June 4. President lumber,
accompanied by the Premier, M. Dupuy,
and the chief of the military household,
Gen. M. C Buillotd drove to the
Auteuil race this afternoon, closely fol
lowed by Mine. I-ioubet, iu a second
lunduu. As they drove along the Av
enue des Champs Klysecs the crowd
bowd respeetivcfully, but on arriving at
Auteuil they were met by a violent de
monstration, evidently oriymucil and di
rected against the President.
There was a storm of hoots, yells, ami
cries of "Pauanni," "A bus Iotilx;t,"
aud "Vive l'Armee." A few shouts of
"Vive J.oulH't" were drowned in the
clamor.
A strong force of police kept order and
arrested many of the disturbers, includ
ing a nuui who tried to force his way to
the President's carriage.
During the second race the clamor in
creased to violence, and was plainly di
rected by a committee of the League of
Patriots, collected with their supporters
lsth before and liehind the Presidential
stand, around which a formidable affray
'proceeded. During the (iranit Steeple
chase many blows were struck, and sev
eral policemen were injured in their en
deavors to prevent an invasion of the
Presidential stand.
At the crisis of the excitement, whil-
nf 'Vive 1' Umiwi" iiml "Vive 1 W. I
uolede were heard on all ciclcs, omit,
Christ inni rushed toward the President, I
brandishing a stick, and directed a blow
against him, striking his hat. Hie crowd
rushed upon Christiani, who only escap
ed severe handling by being taken under
Klice protection.

LOUBETS NARROW ESCAPE.
The Cabinet Council at a meeting this
yafternoon, decided to prosecute all con
cerned iu the Dreyfus-Deroulede affairs.
It is feared today that Uie riots at
Auteuile will soon be renewed, and the
most extreme precautious nre taken. The
charge to be formally made against Ba
ron Christiani will be specially attempt
ing to strike the chief of the State. It
is now known beyond question that the
president had a narrow escape far more
serious than the calmness of President
lubet led the spectators to believe,
laeuts. Clemning, Ker and C.ariou will
be court martialed for their connection
iu yesterday's disturbance.

A NOTABLE SABBATH
Baccalaureate Sermon by Rev.
J. A. McKelway.
BISHOP DUNCAN PREACHES
Two Excellent Sermons Rev. Dr.
Peuick at Presbyterian Church
Large Congregations
Yesterday.
Last evening the baccalaureate sermon
before the graduating class of the A.
and M. College was preached In the col
lege chapel by Rev. J. A. McKelway.
editor of the Presbyterian Standard, of
Charlotte. The chapel was completely
tilled.
Rev. Dr. Eugene Daniel opened the
service with prayer and President Hollu
day introduced Mr. McKelway. Tho
music was furnished by the choir of tho
Presbyterian church. A beautiful solo
was rendered by-Miss Josephine Mitch
ell. Rev. Mr. McKelway chose as his text
"For your heavenly Father knoweth
that yo have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the Kingdom, of God,
and bis righteousness; and all these
tilings shall bo added unto you. Take
therefore no thought for the morrow."
Mr. McKelway said that there were
three centers of thought the home, tho
college aud the world. In the home the
boys wants are anticipated and supplied
by others, while the college is as the
tree in whose branches the fledgelings
first try their wings before attempting
ilie final (light in the world. The man
lio is worried and troubled over the
stion of food and clothes for the mor
row shows less faith than the wild
beast. Cod is to be trusted for these
things.
"1 know not where His islands lil t
TJieir frouded palms in air,
I only luow I cannot drift
Beyond His love and care."
The world is certainly growing better.
A i Christ's birth one man ruled the
world with autocratic sway; the lives
of CScX'-o and Seneca, as protrayed by
their contemporaries exhibit glaring im
mortalities; the marriage' bond was
lightly Isold until Christ taught the pro
per conception of woman. Christ's i
kingdom has grown from a mustard seed
i a tree, but it is not yet f ully develop-Cb-
Wrongs still exist Which God needs
: l to right. In closing Mr. McKelway
read Edward Marks' beautiful poem:
"The Man With the Hoe," and said
that the love of Christ answered the
tiestiovis asked, Christ's lovo alone could
give '!hc upward looking and tho
Jight," "rebuild in it the music and the
f ream."
BISHOP DUNCAN.
BUhep Duncan occupied the pulpit
both morning and evening yesterday at
the llWIeiiton street Methodist church
and he preached two excellent sermons
to large congregations.
iu the morning bis text was from
Matthew chapter 10, verse o": "He that
loveth father or mother more than me
is not worthy of me; and he that loveth
son or daughter more than me is not
worthy of me."
Bishop Duncan showed the importance
if placing love for Christ first.
This is necessary for man to succeed.
Ho told what the church could accom
plish with the wealth of the world.
Recent events have opened up new terri
tory to the gospel.
In the evening the Bishop's text was
John 3rd chapter, 17 verse: "God sent
not his sou into the world to condemn
the world, but that the world through
him might be saved."
In this discourse tho Bishop empha
sized the church's mission to save sin
ners no matter who they are.
God is a God of love. Any other idea,
is erroneous. He showed the worthless
ness of a christian life which did not
seek to save sinners.
" DR. PENICK'S SERMON.
Rev. Dr. Penick, of Lexington, Vir
ginia, preached yesterday morning ia
the First Presbyterian church. His sub
ject was the "Book of Life." It was
a splendid sermon and was frequently
commented on on the streets today. At
night no service was held at this church.
CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
The services at the Christian church
yesterday were full of interest. The
special services continued with increasing
interest and Rev. J. L. Foster, the pas
tor, preached two excellent sermons.
Three new scholars were reported in
Sunday school, three joined the church
and eight professed faith in Christ dur
ing the service.
The services at the other churches
were unusually interesting and largely
attended. k
SUMMER SCHOOL.

4 months aud 15 days.
Mrs. Ayer was the daughter of Mr.

at Morrisville, N. C, Jan. 20, 1841.
She was married May 28th, 1802 to
Henry W. Ayer, son of General Henry
W. Ayer, of Fayetteville, and was wid
owed by this loss of her husband in the
battle of Ream's Station, Aug. 25th,
ISOti.
Besides this sacrifice to the Confed
eracy she lost a loved brother, Joseph
Morris, in the battle of Manassas. This
death was the result of a wound which
lasted a weary while, during which she
nursed him in camp hospitals, with only
such care and tenderness ns a gentle,
loving, yet strong woman is capable. One
sister and three brothers survice her.
They are Mrs. Sallie W. Bouman, of
Clarendan, Texas; A. J. Morris, of Mor
risville, N. C; J. M. Morris, of Grand
Junction, Tenn., and W. H. Morris, now

of Raleigh.
