1.-THE FALL OF THE eAsrlLe.
What an Anarchist Says About the Anni-
versary of That Event. July IL.

WIS., ~
An Anarchist of this city, who
shaves his beard so as to leave only a
mustache on his face, was interviewed
by a Sun reporter in regard TO the pre-
diction of Capt. Bonfield, of Chicago,
that there will be a widespread An
archist uprising on the 14th of next
July, and that in Paris, where their
operations are to begin, the centenary
OF the fall Of the Bastile is then TO be
celebrated. ut is true" the New York
Anarchist said, that there will be a
big time in Paris on July IA next at
the Bastile celebration, and it is also
true that they had a big time there on
the same date in last July, and like
wise on hat date of every year since
the establishment of the French repub-
lie. The 14th of July in France is
like the 4th of July in the United
States. II is the national annual holi-
day, when all France, including the
French government and army, unites
in celebrating the most memorable
event in French history. The day is
also celebrated in this country,
mainly by Frenchmen, and it will be
celebrated here next year, as Inspector
Bonfield, of Chicago, says. But there
is no need of being alarmed about the
celebration of next year, any more
than there was about that of last year,
or of the year before. The celebration
is not anarchistic, but republican, and
~signalizes the downfall Of monarchy.
AS the Americans in France and other
countries celebrate the Fourth Of July,
so the Frenchmen in America and
other countries celebrate the 14th of
July; and the sympathizers with
French liberty who live in France
join hands with the people there, just
as the foreign sympathizers with
American liberty who live here join
hands with the natives on Independ-
ence day. That is all the ground there
is for the apprehensions Of Inspector
BonHeld, Of Chicago, who probably
never was in France. There is not
the slightest danger in this country,
any more than there is in France, of the
Anarchists raising any rumpus on the
coming French centenary. They are
a hundred times stronger in France
than they are here, but the French
government takes no heed of them.
1t is too bad that Capt. Bonfield should
scare people about the 18th of next
July."-New York Sun

Birds are susceptible to training, as
we all know, but it really taxes our
credulity 10 believe the stories told by
Charles Frederick Holder about the
pigeons of Modena in his new book,
"a Frozen Dragon and Other Tales
But they arc strictly true for all that.
Read what he says; A traveller in
Modena Observed a youth i'll n pictur-
csque costume leaning out of the win.
dow of n stone tower, his face show
ny every evidence of excitement and
pleasure. In his hand he bore n long
staff. upon the end of which was D
colured flag. with which lie seemed 10
be signaling to some one in the dis
lance. The traveller soon distinguished
several other figures on the roofs OF
various houses in tho vicinity, all OF
whom seemed TO be answering the sig
nails. Finally all tho ilags were with.
drawn but that held by II man. He
stationed himself upon an emincnco
ON the roof, raised his staff high above
his head, and from about his feet
Gprang into the air II vast flock OF
birds. Up they rose, higher and
higher into the heavens, waving and
turning, the morning sun ~glistening
upon their varied colors as they ex.
posed themselves in different positions
TO its rays.
When almost out of sight they
turned, and II meteor Of wings came
rushing down with II roaring sound,
and nearing the housetops again
alightcd about the tall figure on the
lofty roof. Hardly had this been done
when another figure rose and another
flock dartcd upward. These were pure
white, and resembled flecks of silvery
cloud as they swept about, These
maneuvers were repeated two or three
times, tho birds always returning in
obedience TO the waving OF the flags.
In Modena there are fully 100 hocks
Of these pigeons, composed of several
hundred birds each, and they have
been bred and trained from the earliest
times. They understand and obey the
signals just as soldiers do on the field
of battle. Sometimes the whistle is
used as u signal instead of the flag,
and they obey that too.-Philadelphia
Times.

The question of the duration of
dreams has recently been discussed in
Germany, among others by DIR. +.
Scholz, who has given some striking
examples from his own experience and
observation. 1t is not possible to give
a definite answer, and probably
enough dreams vary much in point of
duration, just as they vary in force
and vividness. AT one time the figures
of a dream, whether they emerge from
the horn or the ivory gate, are us real
as in life; the sorrow is even more in
tense, the happiness more realistic. At
another time they seem to live only in
a pale moonlight, and we watch the
scene rather than participate in
them. 1t is very certain, however,
that the majority of dreams are only
tended occasionally TO the length of n
minute.
In proof of this DIR. Scholz tells the
following story from his experience:
After excessive bodily fatigue and a
day of mental strain, of a not disagree
able kind, / betook myself to bed after
| had wound my watch and placed it
on the night table. Then 1 lay down
beside a burning lamp. Soon l found
myself on the high sea on board a well
known ship. l was again young and
stood on the lookout. Iheard the roar
of the water and golden clouds foated
around me. How long l stood SO l
did not know, but it seemed a very
long time. Then the scene changed.
l was in the country and my long dead
parents came to greet me; they took
me to church, where the loud organ
sounded. was delighted, but at the
same time wondered to see my wife
and children there. The priest
mounted the pulpit and preached, but
lcould not understand what he said for
the sound of the organ, which CON
tinued to play. l took my son by the
hand, and with him assembled the
church tower, but again the scene vas
changed. Instead of being near my
son / stood near an early known but
long dead officer-I ought to explain
that was an army surgeon during the
maneuvers, 4 was wondering why
the major should look so young, when
quite. close in my ears a cannon
sounded. Terrified, 1 was hurrying
off, when l woke up and noticed that
the supposed cannon shot had its
cause in the opening of the bedroom
door through some n entering. 1t
was as if had lived through an eter-
nifty in my dream, but when 1 looked
at my watch 1 saw hat since l had
fallen asleep not more than one min
ute had elapsed-a much shorter time
than it takes to relate the occurrence"
DR.. Scholz has collected many other
examples of q similar kind. London

1t was the wealth of Peru and
Bolivia which was their curse from
the time of Pizarro to that of modern
Chill. Guano has been exported since
1916 from Peru, and the annual ship
ments are said to have amounted to
$50, 600, 900 and $50, 900, 900, whereas
the whole population of the country
was not greater than Pennsylvania.
The epidemic of riches broke both the
government and the people, and
brought in foreign enemies. How
much better are we off in some parts
of this country with all our riches and
so little fortitude7 The guano running
down, nitrate of soda was found in the
deserts, and Chill came in to get this,
and destroyed Peru.
1t was discovered in 1888, in South
America, by an old Englishman
named George Smith. They say it
will take eight or ten centuries to dig
it away. Nobody knows how the nj
trate was formed under the sands of
this desert. Shoveling off the sand,
you come to a course of SUI baked
clay, and under this is a bed of white
material, like melting marble, and soft
as cheese. 1t is about four or five feet
thick, and is broken up by crowbars
and ground. A solution from it is
run into watts of sea water, and crys-
t~allization is caused. The ultimate re-
suit is an iodine of commerce costing
as much per ounce as the saltpeter
brings per hundred weight. The high
est grade goes to the powder mills, the
next to the chemical works, and the
third to the fertilizer factories. Gin
