ROTHSCHILD SAVED AGAIN. An Anarchist Almost Blowing Up the Bank. Paris, Sept. 5.—M. Rothschild’s| banking house in this city was the Scene to-day of another Nihilistic attempt. At 3:20 o'clock a man entered the bank from the Ru L Fitte. In the who was vestibule a detective ou guard there saw the stranger trying to light the fuse of a bomb which he carried with a cig- arette. The ashes on the cigarette prevented the ready ignition of the fuse, and the man seeing that he was observed threw the bomb upon the carpeted floor. The weapon did not explode and the man was arrest- ed. When he was taken to the Police office he boldiy ayowed him- self an Anarchist. According to another account, when the man with the bomb was arrested he was ascending the first Strir case leading to the banking office, and had lighted a match. When he saw that he had been de- tected he threw the bomb to the ground and ran out into th. street, being pursued by the bank detective. When overtaken, the desperate man turned suddenly and confronted bis pursuer with a razor. The officer warded off a blow which was aimed at him and seized the man by the wrist. A crowd assembled, attract- ed by the struggle, and another policeman coming up the two officers susceeded in overpowering the would-be murderer. At the police office the man was examined by inspector Carnette, acting in the absence of Commissary Guerin. He obstinately refused to talk and was taken to the central prison. There he became more com- municative and openly professed Anarchistic theories, declaring he intended the bomb as an anarchist demonstration. The recently explo- sive letter received at De Roths- child’s bank, and which cost Baron Alphonse De Rothschild’s confiden- tial clerk an eye, the man said was only a hoax, to day’s attempt. being expected to have a salutary effect. The man told Commissary Guerin he made the bomb himself. He ex- pressed regret that he had not taken enough precautions to insure an ex- plosion. He had tried to light the fuse with a cigarette, but the ashes upon the latter interfered. The ar- rival of the detective had compelled him to throw the bomb hastily, and by that act he had not expected to explode it. He said the bomb con- tained chloride of potassium. ‘““How- ever,” he added, “you are cunning; open it and satisfy yourself on that point.” When taken to the prefecture he refused to giye his name or occupa- tion. He was dressed in dark clothes and wore a shirt with red stripes. The bomb was made ofa half pound of cocoa tin, tied with a string and wound about with wire. A round hole, a quarter of an inch in size, was in the side of the box and from this fell a whitish powder. The culprit was miserably dressed andarazor and brush were found upon him, so it is supposed he is a barber's assistant. He refused to give any pretext for the attempted outrage. His family lived a long time at Montmarte, where active in- quiries are proceeding. Upon being further examined he said the bomb was compesed of chloride of potassium and blasting powder and contained no projectile. His act, he said, wae a protest against the proceedings of the bank- ers. He had traveled throughout France, never remaining long in the same place, in order not to awaken suspicion. He professed a contempt for work since every one lives at the expense of society. The news of the outrage spread rapidly in Paris, and many fear that it por- tends a renewal of an active Anar- chistic campaign. How’e This!

Mrs. Massie’s Exploit. Our former Rich Hill friend, R. C. Massie, has furnished the Kansas City Journal with the following fur- ther particulars of his wife’s experi- ence with a Chicago highwayman, an account of which the Review con- tained yesterday: “The occurrence,” says Mr. Mas- sie, was in the middle of the after- noon and on one of the leading residence streets. The man followed Mrs. Massie several blocks and at a moment when there were ro other pedestrians near, overtook her and attempted to snatch her purse. She returned with a blow of her umbrella. The thief then grabbed her hand and attempted to take the diamonds from her ears. She released herself from his grasp and took refuge in the doorway of an adjacent residence, and the would-robber took to his heels. Mrs. Massie suffered a sprain of the wrist, but otherwise was not injured. She hag been in Chicago a week looking after the sale of sever- al songs of her own composition, which have recently attracted con- siderable attention. “Mr. Massie says he sent Mrs. Massie a postoftice order a few days ago, and he thinks the thief saw her cash the order and followed her un- til he saw an opportunity to take her purse.” Now, if Mrs. Massie had only cap- tured that robber, then worked all the incidents of the affair into a song set to “catchy” music, she would have been a real heroine as well as a great composer—very shortly thereafter. Nothing suc- ceeds like success, you know. Ladies, however, should select tame burglars to practice on. Mrs. Mas- sie exhibited rare pluck in “holding her own” as she did.—Review. ” On a Lone Island. Santa Cruz, Cal., Sept. 4.—D. T. Hughes, R. F. Davis, R. L. Mann and Peter Chrisman of Gonzales and H. Mohrman and P. Jennings of Gilroy to-day sailed for a lone island in the Pacific Ocean, about 800 miles west of Peru, in search of buried treasure. Forty-three years ago Mr. Jennings was a sailor on the South Seas, and as such is said to have been one of the six who buried on a lonely island in the Pacific three large jars of Spanish doubloons, valued at between $300,- 000 and $1,090,000. Mr. Jennings is the only man alive that knows the location of the money, as the other five died in his presence on the Pe-| ruvian Coast. He has also a chart! of the island and claims it is volcan- ic and uninhabited. Three months) will be required to make the trip. | | Is Your, Tongue Coated, yourthroat dry, your eyes M. U.

Baltimore, Md. Sept. 5—The Manufacturer's Record says that the announcement of new cotton mills projected in the South during the last three months exceed that of any similar time in the history of cotton mill building in this section. There were reported seventy-seven | mills, which will have an aggregate of over 300,000 spindles, which, ad- ded to the 500,000 spindles to be! put in mills that had been reported | before May 31, makes a total of about 800,000 spindles to be added to the number now in operation in| the South. If these mills are all built, indications show, the| aggregate investment will be some-| thing over $15,000,000. With the | conitinunation of high prices for cote | ton the enormous grain crop which | has been produced and these active | conditions in industrial interests, | the South bids fair to have the most | prosperous season which it has en-} joyed for many years. as The chronic grumbler still lives, | but there are less cases of chronic | indigestion and dyspepsia than form- | erly.

New York, Sept. 4—Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher has returned from her trip to Port Townsend greatly refreshed and invigorated. “I was gone just four weeks and three days,” she said, “and enjoyed every minute of my trip Unfortu- nately, the climatic conditions of Port Townsend were unfavorable, acd I did not see the sun, moon or stars until two days before I left. The women are extremely well edu- cated, and I am glad to say that the new-woman fever has not affected many of them. I wisely refrained from any discussion on that subject, for it seemed to me that those who had been stricken with this disease were extremely ill informed in the matter. I feel that women are not to be considered as equal to men— they are one with them and must work in karmony. All this talk about icfluencing the men in politics must be disgusting. These women | who wish to help select the Mayor! can not be attending to home duties, for if they were they would not} know who was the best man, but would leave it to the men.” Shanghai, Sept. 5—The inquiry into the massacre at Ku Cheng is| Proceeding to the satisfaction of the jmuch sand. jmore than 15 b ing.

New York, Sept. 5.—James Hud- son of Washington, D. C., has placed a remarkable Chinese bed on exhibition in a big dry goods store on Fulton street. The bed is nearly 1,000 years old and was occupied originally by The-Sing, the last em- peror of the Sing dynasty. The bed weighs 2,400 pounds, is 7 feet 6 inches long, 4 feet 10 inches wide and 7 feet 3 inches high. It con- sists of forty-three separate pieces dove-tailed together like a Chinese puzzle. Nota nail, screw or fasten- ing of any kind is employed. The panels are of carved teak, with san- dalwood, bamboo and ivory inlaid work. There are 1,100 figures rep- resenting the history of the Sings from the time of Tai-Tsa, their foun- ider, in 960 B. C, until The Sing. The figures are as distinct and their expression as perfect as if painted by a master. It is worth $11,000. Bradley’s Blunder, Middlesborough, Ky., Sept. 4 —| | (Spl.)—This, the Eleventh Congres-| |sional district, is the Gibralta of Re- publicanism in Kentucky, and for years has not failed to send a repre- sentative to Congress, but Col. Bradley has injured his chances of | success by refusing to meet Wat| Hardin on the stump, and has driven some Republicans away from him by what they term his political cowar- dice. A week ago a good many gold money Democrats would have sup- ported him in preference to Hardin, because of the latters views on the money issue, but now they will swing inte line for their Democratic candidate. A mountianeer hates any form of cowardice, and Democrats and Re- publicans alike censure Bradley for hoisting a flag of truce so early in the campaign. Toa Limb.

New York, Sept. 5.—Pretty Mar- tha Garnee is station agent at Mount Ivy, N. Y., and yesterday sparks from a freight train set her station house on fire. She and her brother saved such things as they could. Then the ptucky station agent re- membered that an east-bound pas- senger train was almost due. The track in front of the station was covered with debris and there was risk of an accident. All the flags were bound up in the fire. Then Miss Garnee remembered her red petticoat. She sent her brother down the track with it, and he flagged the train. The passengers, who considered their lives had been saved, cheered Miss Garnee for her pluck. A Hackensack millionaire who was on the train offercd her $10 for the petticoat as a souvenir She declined the offer, saying that the garment would be sent to the office of the company and preserved among the other archives. Buckner Out of the Race. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 4.—General Simon Bolivar Buckner, in a card to day in his home paper, the “Hart County News,” announces his with- drawal from the race for United States Senator. The General states that in many legislative districts per- sonal interests are arrayed against- party success, and that candidates supposed to be favorable are, never- theless, a target for opposition in the party. He says that untrammel- ed with any candidacy of his own, he can the more earnestly urge the support of the whole Democratic ticket and advocate the platform of principles as construed by every | member of the party at the time of its adoption.
