The Anarchists at Work. -Numbers
Increasing.

CHICAGO, November 13.-The Times
says: Anarchy is not dead, or even
sleeping; on the contrary, it is more
thoroughly organized than even at
the time of the Haymarket riot, and
it's membership is larger than it has
ever been. The demonstration of last
Sunday at WOldheim was not a
friends of the dead anarchists. II was
an organized out-pouring of interna-
tionals, who have thus arranged to
come out, and concentrate at any
point az eed upon. Inspector Bon
field, who is known to have kept de-
tectives watching every movement of
the anarchists the past few weeks,
when asked yesterday if there were
many anarchists at the celebration,
replied: Eyes, there were; most Of
them were anarchists"
"Then you think they are still Or
gained, and have a large member
Ship" II have men out looking up
their meetings, and we know where
they are, and have the name and ad-
dress of the leaders, and most radical
anarchists, so we can reach them in
case of trouble. They meet in smaller
numbers than before, but there are
more of them, and they conduct their
meetings differently"
Trouble must come sc )ner or later.
They have set day for it at head
quarters, but in the meantime they
will avail themselves of every oppor-
tunity to carry out their obj, It of d.
struction to all organ ized law and or
der institutions. They sent out circu-
lars before the election, asking legis-
lative candidates for an expression of
their opinion on the state conspiracy
law, enacted at the last ses-
sion of the legislature. Many
of the candidates replied that they
were in favor of mou tication of that
law, and some of these candidates
were elected too. So you see they
are becoming wiser, and consequently
more dangerous, because the most
radical of them are AFRAID t. expert

as the law is as it ISL

you, but you may say that we have
positive evidence of their organiza-
ton, of their course Of plans, comTit
tees, etc. The central point is in Lon
don, with Paris as next, then Brus-
sells, New York, Philadelphia, Chi
cago and san Francisco. All princi-
pal countries have vice presidents,
the United States having Two, Chi
cago one and New York one.
On the strength of their men,
bers they rank. France, first; Ger

quarters is in New York. So far they
have agreed on the one hundredth

the day for concerted uprising. l
do not think the people can take it
any too much in earnest. They may
have to change it, but they will GER
tainly make an effort. 1t must come

If EVER there was distinct and
positive issue closely drawn and I'M
mistakably defined between parties
in this country, it was the tariff issue
in the late campaign. Taking the
presidents message and the Mills bill
as the pronouncement of the demo-
cratic party, it secured the support of
every democratic representative in
congress with two or three exceptions,
and yet the democratic journals claim
it was not a party issue. Will these
journals inform us what constitutes a
party issue? The Cotulla Ledger says
of La Sale county:
IA majority of the democrats of the
county voted the republican ticket be-
cause they were opposed to free trade.
Remove that issue and there are ten
democratic votes here to one republic
cam
"Remove that issue" and the great
est issue between the parties is dead.

THE SILENT TOWERS.
Where F1ocks of yultures and Ravens
Dwell Among the Dead.


p spa-lht From The London It'd Bits.
One of the most remarkable customs
of the Parsees is their method of dispos-
ing of the dead. On the rocky crest of
Malabar Hill, from whence the admiring
beholder looks down on u magnificent
panorama of city, sea and bay, the Par
sees own beautiful plot of ground,
which is ornamented with lofty palms
and Towering plants. In this garden or
cemetery stands the Dakhma, or Tower
of Silence"
The interior of this structure is divided
into three circular or concentric cham
bers, each of which is in turn divided
into numerous smaller chambers. The
inner circle is for the bodies of children,
the next for the women and the outer
circle for the men. When corpse is
brought to the cemetery by the relatives
1t is received by attendants, clad in white
robes, and, amid the chanting of priests,
is placed in one OF the compartments of
the Dakhma
Almost Immediately the "holy birds
of Ormuzd," the sedate vultures perched
on the Palmyra palms in the cemetery,
swoop down into the open tower, and in q
few minutes devour the flesh of the dead
body. Swarms of ravens follow and vo-
raciously swallow the remnants of this
feast. Later the bleached bones are gath
cred into a receptacle under the tower.
To most Europeans this is horrible
mode of sepulture; hut, as collating
zoologist, / confess think the swift de-
struction of dead body by vigorous
birds of prey or by fire, as with the Hin
dus, more aesthetic and poetical than
the slow, wasting, worm eating corrup-
ton of the grave-a method that is Just

Late Tuesday afternoon a cookbook
ing and nobby, small-sized young
Chinaman, who could not have been
more than eighteen, drove up in a cab to
5 Mott street and alighted. lie gave a
dollar to the cabman, ana timidly
walked up the street, glancing at the
Chinese stores as If looking for certain
number. A Chinaman asked him what
store he sought.

piled In very low. but fine tone that
sounded like the voice of n girl The
Chinaman showed the stranger to II
Mott street, in the rear of large tene-
mentl occupied almost exclusively by the
Chinese. Here room was rented to
him by another Chinaman.
Although. his appearance attracted
attention when he appeared upon the
street nobody dare to speak to him for
the reason that he would not speak to
anybody. Last Saturday evening lodg-
ers in the new arrivals apartments heard
two voices within One of them was
the voice of woman upbraiding a
man, who could only be heard soto voce.
In a short time they came out and to the
great astonishment of all very pretty
young Chinese girl in full feminine attire
followed big, broad.shouldered young
Chinaman of about twenty-five years.
They went down stairs, after locking
their door, jumped into carriage that
was in waiting, and drove rapidly up the
Bowery.
From Mr.. All Book an inmate Of II
Mott street, it was learned that the good
looking young Chinaman was Ye boy,
young Chinese girl of San Francisco.

with All Suey, who had come East to
better his condition. Although promis-
ing to send for her when settled here, he

Ye boy got clue to his whereabouts,
and not being ableto write letter she
concluded to do thenext best thing, and
this was to come in person. The SNUG
