two European consu.s, Hassan Bey,
twelve Greeks and several natives.
Two other steamers accompanied them to
Berber, which place they shelled. Four mug
gars accompanied the ex pedition TO Abu Ha-
Iaec, when the Abbass proceeded alone. She
struck on a rock two feet under water, near
the island Of Wady Cams. The whole party
then Landed on the island. Stewart subse-
quentlY returned to the steamer and spiked
the guns, threw the ammunition overheard
and returned TO the Island. The entire party
were unarmed, with the exception Of stewart,
who had small revolver. The natives as
sembled on the right bank OF the river,
shouting, "Glve US peace and grace" Sule-
imam Pasha sent messenger
inviting stewart TO his house. The whole
party crossed the river. Suleman took Stew
art the two Consuls and Hassan Bev to the
house OF blind man named Etinder Fakir to
drink coffee. While In the house Suleiman
came out and motloned to the natives, who
formed two parties armed with swords and
spears. One party entered the house and kill
ed Stewart ana the Two Consuls. Hassan Bey
escaped, wounded, and afterwaad was taken

rest Of Stewards people, among whom
was the narrator Of this, wAo,
swan to the island and hid until dark. He was
afterwards taken prisoner to Brit. Stewart
had landed provisions and stores from the
steamer, which had made four trips TO the
island. Many of his party were drowned In
trying to escape. The bodies Of Stewart and
others were thrown into the river. SulCi
mans followers divided all the money g qe
could find, and sent other spoils in a box TO
Berber, where two artillery men, two sailors
and three natives, survivors OF the massacre,
still remain.

New York Dynamiters

The large dry goods establishments Of Garry
Bros, and Ridley ~ Co., situated on the neigh
boring corners OF Grand and Allen sts., In New
York CITY. were badly damaged by an explo-
sion at 80 o'clock Sunday morning. Feb. LIST.
At that hour the policemen stationed two
blocks distant heard and felt terrific explo-
sion, at the same time seeing broad sheet Of
flame, and In another instant the crashing Of
heavy glass was heard. To the corner Of Allen
and Grand streets sped the OIL Ger to find the
immense show window of Garry Bros store
was wrecked, and a similar state of affairs In
Ricley's store opposite, where the Allen street
window was demolished and l07 lights of glass
In the upper part OF the building broken. A
second policeman came quickly and he found
man lying in the gutter In front OF Garry's
store, and noticed two men hobbling down
Allen street, while fourth man was running
toward the Bowery. All four were captured
and locked up, and whenlarraigned at noon
were remanded for further examination,
but were afteTward released. They
gave their names as William Bri:toD, wait
er, James Daily, clerk, Charles Henry, la
borer, and Joseph, a printer, also member OF
the Dry Goods Clerks Equality Associst or.
All the men were more or less cut by glass,
aud Henry was so badly wounded as TO mecca.

The damage to both the dry goods establish.
ments is less than 5000.
In police circles the explosion is explained
by the statement that Garry Brothers have tad
a great deal OF trouble with their clerks, who
are all members OF the Equality Association
Just before Christmas Garry Brothers dis
charged one OF their clerks for q cause not
deemed sufficient by the association, and his re-
instatement was demanded and refused by the
firm. The result was general strike among
the clerks, which lasted few days and then
terminated by the clerks yielding |, is III

SAYS the Lewiston, Maine, journal:
The upbuilding of character is the work
of life, and in the early part of q life
the foundations are laid. We noticed
the act of teacher in one of tho Auburn
public schools, which mas good deal
Of ethical wisdom in it. One of the lit
tie girls and one of the little boys in the
small primary were at home quite sick,
and at the teachers suggestion the girls
stopped after school to write letters OF
regard and sympathy to the little girl,
and the boys stopped to do the same
service for their little sick mate. 1t
was trife, but it did something toward
educating the children concerned in
thoughtful and practical sympathy. A
good deal is said nowadays of the neces-
sity of teaching pupils morals and man.
ners in school. One act emoodying the
exercise of unselfshness and consider q.
ton, will do more than reams of homi-
lies.

Elijah Wease, aged IS, has been arrested In
Petersburg, w. Va, for the murder of Hiram
Ault, in October, 1881. He was confined in
jail at Mooreheld, but was released by union
soldiers. There were only two witnesses to
the murder, one OF whom, Geo. Reed, was kill
ed 10 the war. The other, Anna Gun, went
west where a sister OF the murdered man met
her last month, and was told the story Of the
crime. When the information was given the
grand jury Wease was indicted. Twelve
murders are charged to the old man. He has
confessed to six, among others that of his own
son. The method was TO take the victims TO a
place called the Leap and throw them over.
IL has been discovered that he was captain of
band Of deperadoes, who committed murder
and robbery. At the place designated the
remains Of five men were found ST one time.
They were discovered by dogs bringing the leg
and arm OF man home. The murderer
was not suspected then. Then men killed. with
two exceptions, were killed because they were
Union men. He also confessed to burning
many houses. The whole country IS aroused

The writers who described the effect
of the explosions in London apparently
drew freely upon their imaginations at
times. One account, referring to the
White Tower, says that the shock NOV
ed the large stone in the staircase over
the tomb of the two little nephews of
Richard III, who were murdered in the
Tower, and disclosed the coffin in
which their dust rests" The fact is
that what is left of the two smothered
princes was long ago removed to West
Minister Abbey and placed at the eastern
end of one of the aisles in Henry VIIth's
chapel, near the tombs of Elizabeth and

over the bones of the little victims in
1914. Moreover, the princes did moi
