Six robbers, all powerful men, made the attack, and boarded the train. Only three of them left and two of these carried wounds away with them. One was shot dead, another died an hour after the attack, and a third is mortally wounded. The Specials were not burt ‘The plan is an effective one.

Martinez C: is to take charge of the seven th troops sent forwaml to Cuba to the uprising. He succeeded before, and he Is to try to do it again. But will the General succeed? The | Conservative Government organ of Cuba warns the home authorities that this 1s no negro revolt, as they are represent- ing it to be, but a movement on the pact of those who are hostile to the Spanish nationality and desire to nee Cut fre ‘The organ says the designs of the « aratists have been in preparation for some time and there is no question of negro influence. The plain fact is that Spain will never be able to hold Cuba without a constant Judge Moore's rulings in the trial of the Brooktyn Trolley Company officials » ‘fer violating the Ten-Hour law are a ' , Pemarkable addition to an already varle- @ated Jocal jurisprudence.

It is too much to suppose that one who ignores common sense ani the @ictionary to find a satisfactory defini- tion of “exact” could have any definite understanding of the meaning of “an- @rdby.” But the fact is that an An- ‘@rchist is one who reeks to subvert and Gestroy law and to bring contempt pon established institutions. And by that definition Judge Moore, ‘who diverts the law from its purpose and destroys the public confidence tn ‘the equality of justice, is a greater An- archist and more dangerous to society ‘and social order than any striker that ever threw a brick. BOES NOT KNOW ENOUGH TO RESIGN Coroner Hoeber's expressed and doubt- mand for hie resignation {# additional evidence of the need for an imme: ‘vacancy in his office. Inefficiency and incompetence in a Selves, but when combined with igno- Fance so gross that {t cannot realize their existence they become simply in- tolerable. The longer the Coroner remains in Oftice the more fully he convinces the Public of his absolute unfitness for the Place, Tuat he does not see it himself Merely increases the aggravation of his failure to resign, A MEMEDY AGAINST ROAD AGENT:. ‘The Cincinnut! Southern Railway has hit upom.an excellent pian to prevent the holding up and robbery of trains by road agents. The pian has not been . Patented, and is therefore open to all Fallroad companies in the country to adopt.

If she puts down the present up- rising, It will be followed by another treading on ta heels, and the Spanish Government ought to know well enough that Spain holds Cuba, not by her troops and her generais, but by the good faith and forbearance of the United States. It would be a wise policy for Spain to felease her hold on Cuba before it is finally shaken off, and to give Its peo- ple their freedom before they take it. ‘This {s as good a time as ever for such ® movement, and It would be a bold and patriotic act in the new Ministry to Propose it. Spanish bumptiousness might at first revolt, but when the people of Spain find their debt piling up and a loan neceasary to pay the cost of tem- porarily averting an inevitable reault, they will be willing enough to let Cuba « THE OOURT 18 IN CONTEMPT. If it 1s contempt of Court to do any- thing which tends to lower the dignity of the administration of justice and bring the administrators into disrepute, then sumebody ought to bring proc ings at once against Judge McAdam. His attempt to punish ex-Congressman Campbell for criticiam of the Court made outside of the court and in an- other action entirely is ridiculous. If there were any chance that it would establish a precedent it would be a serious infringement upon the liberty of the citizen, Of the truth of Campbell's assertions there i# no evidence except the exceed- ing celerity ana bitterness with which the Judge resents them. They could safely have been ignored, and the at- tempt to punish them will harm Judge McAdam and lower the dignity of his court. AIRS ABOUT A PIANO. Some over fastidious people are af- fecting to be greatly shocked because @ grand plano was left at the door of ex-Bullding Inspector Thomas J. Brady's residence and was given admis- sion to the house. ‘The piano was not ordered or paid for by Mr. Brady. It bore the manufac- turers’ name, “Weser Brothers,” on the plate, It was, am alleged, charged to Justus J, Smith. Weser Brothers, be- sides making planos, were erecting # new building on West Forty-third mrect, Smith was the contractor. Surely there {# nothing wrong in all this, A man’s services are worth all they will command. A grand plano is not worth two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, If there is thought to be anything criminal about Brady's shure in the transaction, why not refer the matter to Police Supt. Byrnes? The Platt machine at Albany ts very much in the position of the Wabash train, which, in Missourl yesterday, aud- denly found itself at the edge of a chasm seventy feet deep, from which the bridge had been burned away. The train stopped in time.

It appears that one of Toole's most intimate friends is now in New York, and has been very much struck with the possibilities of Uncle Joshua Whitcomb for Toole. The play, if it 1s done in London, will be localized, and Unele Joshua will be made either a Yorkstilreman or a gen- tleman from Devonshire, “I appre- late this conduct on the part of Mr. Toole very highly,” said Den- “1 neglected copyright “The Old Homestead’ in land, because I never thought It would go there.

Mr all ‘Thompson was asked why he did not o over himself and present the play in London. He shrugged his shoulders. “I've finished,” he said, “I'm not # bitious to act any more.

Mrs, Jenness Miller wants to know why women become passe. A great many women have been asking the same thing with passion ever since the Fall. Mrs. Miller points out that men are fre- quently handsome at fifty at twenty; they don't look young, per- haps, but they look vital and handsome. She thinks women might have equal success if their hygienic conditions were good; if they were, in short, as good animals. Years Novel Bread Tina. Housekeepers whose families are fond of crusty bread can please them, accord- ing to an ingenious person, by using a section of a stovepipe as a bread pan, The four-inch pipe is a good sort for the purpose, and any tinsmith will cut off a plece the required length. The edges should be bent a little that the hands may not be cut, but the ends are left open, and the loaves made a little shorter than the pan. Bolling Potatoes. If potatoes be covered with boiling water and placed on the fire they will ccok in thirty minutes. If they be very small they may get done in twenty-eight minutes, and if they be large it may take thirty-two to cook them sufficlent- ly. They should be kept boiling all the time after they once begin,.but not at = 3 as @ too rapid Lreaks the surface of the potato the centre is cooked. The time of ing is to be counted from the m the boiling water is poured over the tatoes, When the potatoes are done the water should be poured off and the steam then allowed to escape. Should it be necessary to keep them warm after that cover them with a coarse towel, Never with the pot cover, for if the Steam does not have a chance to escape it will be absorbed by the potatoes, which will become sodaen, dark an@ strong-flavored.

It ts a very dificult thing to wash Tose blankets without making them harsh and removing all the ‘fluff.
