WHERE PRINTERS CAN REST. The Childs-Drexel Home Soon to Be Opened. 4&* INSTITUTION WHICH HAD ITS ORIGIN IN THE MUSIFICENCE OF TWO PHILANTRROPISTS—DE- SCRIPTION OF THE BUILDING AT COLORADO SPRINGS—THE DEDICATION EXERCISES TO HELD IN A FEW DaYs, Printers throughout the entire country are displaying especial interest just now in the Childs-Drexel Home for Union Printers, be- cause the institution is to be dedicated on May 12—the birthday of Mr. Childs. The history of the home has been told more than once in the columns of Tax Sraa. While the 1886 com- Yention of the International Typographical Union was being held at Pittsburg there was donated to the convention the sum of $10,000. It was the joint contribution of Geo. W. Childs, Proprietor of the Philadelphia Ledger, and Anthony J. Drexel, the banker. For some time the union did not know what te do with the gift, but it was finally decided to make it the nucleus of a fund which wouid in time be suilicient to establish a home for worn-out union printers. ‘Yo assist in the money growth every mem- ber within the jurisdiction of the international organization set 1.000 ems of type annualiy for the cause. while the atereotypers, electrotypers and pressmen contributed the results of one hour's work, and in 15% the available cash amounted to $25.00. In 1889 the “Interna- tional” met at Denver, and to the convention was presented a tract of eigity acres of land beautifully situated at Colorado Springs. At that time the land was valued at $40,000; to- day it is said to be worth $100,000. At the annual mecting of 1890 a board of trustees was organized. Angust Donath and Columbus Halli of this city were of the thir- teen men on this board. Mr. Donath was elected president. The building commit- tee consisted of August Donath, Jobu D. Vaughan of Denver and George W. Morgan of Bellingham Bay. state of Washington. Fifty- nine thousand dollars was the contract price of the structure, and more than enough money has been raised to clear off the entire indebt- edness, A DESCRIPTIOX OF THE RUILDING. From its commanding location, on an emi- nence 500 or 600 feet higher than the Rio Grande depot in Colorado Springs, the Printers’ Home is plainly to be seen for miles from any direction outside of the city.

All the newspapers and cables from the other side this week contain news articles and com- ments on the Ist of May, which may be summed up as follows: In France the defiant speech of Ravachol be- fore the jury asserting with unmistakable firm- ness the theory of Bakounine on anarchy (that THE EVENING STAR: AMUSEMENTS, Avpavon’a—The summer season of light opera commences at Aibaug 's Monday night next with the new Carleton Opera Company in Strauss’ newest opera. “Indigo.” The season will continue for twelve weeks and during that time Mr. Carleton will produce two new operas ae have a beeen ol — eo In ae tion to aselect re} ter operas, such as “*Maritana,” “Fra Diavolo” and “Bohemian Girl,” Mr. Carleton will present a grand revival of “The Gondoliera,” with an in- found a terrible application in the explosion of 's restaurant), considered in connection with the sentence of penal servitude for Rava- chol instead of death, as was expected in Paris, have divided public opinion. A part of the French press and of the people conclude that the nine judges of Ravachol have been terrorized by threats to blow up their own resi dences and that the sentence in itself marks the first victory of anarchy. Other newspapers view the situation from a totally different point. They uphold that while “the exten- uating citcumstances” mvoked by jurors in de- fense of their action formed a very poor pre- text in the face of the terrible outrages and bold threats made by Kavachol himself in court, yet the relative mildness of the sentence has done more to check an- arehy’s development than the uso of the guillotine. “The guillotine.” they say, would have consecrated Ravachol as a martyr of @ social revolution, just as he boasted he was, And they compare the present state of Italy and Spain with regard to their late policy against anarchy. Spain's garroting of four marchists has caused much excitement and xetivity in the lines of the conspirators and postles of dynamite. while Itals’s lenient nc- tion in the case of the anarchists arrested for last Ist of May's outrages ‘has practic acted an a safety valve.

Hacenstows, April 29, 1892, ‘The result of the deliberations of the repub- lican district convention, which assembled here Yesterday to nominate two delegates to the ‘Minneapolis convention and to chose an elector, is likely to result in future bickerings, as some of the delegates departed greatly disgruntled.

Carefally Searching the Ruins of the Phila- delphia Fire. A more gastly and weird scene than that shown last night within the crumbling and Diackened walls of what was once the Ceutral ‘Theater at Philadelphia could not be imagined.

One is the difficulty and danger of handling dynamite that requires specially trained. intelligent and instructed agents, truly imbued with the anarchistic theories of total destruction of everything. The other is the fact that in Germany the powerful sociai- istic party has declared itself against anareby’s means of securing social re- forms for the people; that in France the masses are even more opposed to dyna- mite than in Germany, and that both in Italy field of action.

FRANCE. They write from Paris that the sonate is ex- pected to oppose the passage of the Bouvier law on “labor unions,” passed in the chamber of deputies by a vote of 293 to 231, It has been the policy of the labor party im the chamber in recent years to baye that law voted, but the conservative policy of the senate lias rejected it twice already. especially on account of the articles providing imprisonment and fine for all masters, contractors or foremen who use threats of loss of employment, or offers of employment, or dismiss laborers for being members of labor unions, which would give the workingmen a great legal power im all controversies relating to labor and capi- tal with their employers. Those who intro- duced the bill urged that such a provi would have a most desirable effect, viz., that of rendering useless strikes, that impoverish the manufacturers without advancing the posi- tion of the working classes and too often lead to bloodshed, as in this week's strike at Zien Loire), where a severe collision took place be- tween the people and the gendarmes, resulting in wounds and death. In answer to the letter of the archbishop of Avignon. indorsed by that of Aix and others, the minister of justice and worship of Fra has issued a circular to the “‘procureurs gene- raux” stating that while the government will provide full “protection for worshipers in_ the churches, be wil! not hesitate to take all” the necessary Measures to stop tumultuous scenes provoked therein with a hostile intention toward the national form of government, which is in France the republic. “ ” the circular says, “how the edi- fices devoted to the exercise of the Catholic religion have been of late the theater of tumui- tuous scenes. The government feels ita duty, and has a determined intention to fulfill it, to stop their repetition.” And from Rome they which was given here at the Academy of Music, is well remembered, ‘This year “Mr. and airs, leopatra” is the name assigned to a melange marches and dancing, which is the dash and) swing characteristic e boys.

RUSSIA AND THE FAMINE. The financial condition of Russia is reported to be very bad. The collection of taxes by the government has been for the year 1891 only 74 per cent on the estimated amount. Besides, an immense amount of corruption has been ex- posed in Russian administration, requiring the mest urgent and radical reforms, as the whole system of the government scoms entirely rotten. Suffering. and sickness are killing thousands every day, as reported by an in- quest recently made in the most stricken istrict. It is reported that the local gov- ernments of districts where famine prevails are provided with food for distribution among the starving masses until the month of May only, Many of the most learned and liberal classes, among them a great number of ladies, are doing their utmost to prevent further calami- ties among the Russian peasantry, but the misery of the latter is so dreadful that a sort of fatulistic apathy has paralyzed them to such an extent that a bishop had to confess that they await their last day as the one of delivery. ITaLy. King Humbert and Queen Margaret will go about the middie of June for a few days to Berlin. This official communication has given rise to commentaries by the European press from several points of view. It is said that the voyage of the King of italy to meet the kaiser involves the possibility of a secret cou- vention of the interested parties in the triple alliance, with which the projected visit to Ger- many of the czar is indireetly connected, On the Franco-Russian side, as this is the main division in pure European politics, it is as- serted that the object of the voyage of King Humbert is to obtain from his associates an assurance that Italy shall not be compelled to increase her actual military expenses. owing to the financial difticulties under which the Italian nation is laboring. It is denied this week that Marquis di Radini will resort to the unpopular tax on grain mills to meet the difference in the national budget of ‘96,000,000 for the year "92-98. But it is declared that the reformed cabinet will stick to the pro- gram of severe economy in al! services, aud absolutely necessary will decide upon th abandonment by Itaiy of her colonial domin- ion, except the city of Massawa in Africa King Humbert has offered to diminish his ci list by one million. Several small taxes will be established, such as that on matches, thus making it ble to for the discrepancy mentioned. Meanwhile a law has been ich the government is on “Reincarnation or Rebirth.” Mr. Mead is eminent as a scholar and writer and his lecture will no doubt prove highly entertaining. Nationan Rirtes’ Aumony.—There will be a notable entertainment at the National Rifles Armory next Tuesday evening, when Buel stone's comedy, “The Irisn Lion,” and Offenbach’s operetta, “The Rose of Au- vergne” will be presented, ‘The principa! pe formers will be Mr. ©.

Tickets may be secured at Sanders & Stayman'a, Tax Fonesters.—The first presentation of Lord Tennyson's play, “Zhe Foresters,” was given by the Daly Company last night at the ational Theater, aud an audience that com- pletely filled the house witnessed the perform- ance with great interest. The story is well known and has been made familiar during the season by the opera of “Robin Hood,” but its treatment by the poct laureate is lofty in thought and exquisite in diction, With its spectacular effects, its glen of fairies, and choruses and its dances, is far different from what one would expect to see the Daly company in, and yet a less com- plete and competent organization would fuil to make even the noble language of ‘Tennyson effective in the play tolerable, for even in the hands of Miss Rehan, Mr. Drew Miss Cheatham and their associates there is hardly sufticiept action to satisfy a less culti- ed audience than that wh night.

Haunts’ Bou Taraten.—The attraction at Harris’ Bijou Theater next week will be “The Ol eu Bucket,” preseated by the Gray & Stephens Company, whose extraordinary suc- cess this week fully warrants an extension of the engagement.
