A Dastardly CrimO.

PrrTsBURe, November 11.-Upon the
arrival at Dubois of the mail train north
on the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg road
to-day, the car inspector, while the passen-
gers were getting on and off the cars, dis
covered three dynamite bombs and caps
fastened under the springs of the rear
coach. The bombs were carefully removed
and there were many pale faces among the
passengers when they learned the terrible
fate they had escaped. The train starts
from Punxuatawaney every morning and
it is undoubtedly at that place that the
bombs were placed under the springs. As
it only makes short stops between there
and Dubois and as it is twenty miles from
the place OF starting and how it was possi-
bic for the train to run that distance over
short curves with that tamount ofdynamite
and caps under the springs Of the coach is
mystery. Thirty four persons were in
the coach. Suspicion points directly to no
person as the perpetrators OF the deed.

Nearly all American clubs are of recent
growth, those i'm the west necessarily So The
st. Louis club was only started in 1873. Like
most clubs in the beginning, the organiza-
ton bought private mansion for their head
quarters The club was small them and an
ordinary residence accommodated it. There
is enough of the old French element left in
st. Louis to ins,ie good cookery, and the new
club soon became famous for its cuisine and
wines.
The club is not merely for social purposes
In times of need it steps in and silently in
fuenccs municipal politics and other matters
pertaining to the oity's welfare In this case
there are wheels within wheels. The Yelled
Prophets are II secret organization of citizens
who hang together as a power behind the
throne in city politics Within the general
circle of the st. Louis club is n select band
known rs the Commercial club This is con-
ncctcd in some mysterious way, 50 it is said
with the Yelled Prophets, whether 10y the
psychic telegraph of the orcultistS or not does
not appear But whenever an important
measure is to bo carried in the city council
for public improvements, or health, or any
thing like that, the bill is apt to be passed and
the bctterment secured. Then, concerning
the Yelled Prophets ami the Commercial club,
all is silence aggin-till next time. .

The Comtesse de Paris is to her husband
what steam is to the locomotive. He would
