DYNAMITE IN HIS SHOES.
Cartridge. Found In n Package Received
by "a Shoemaker.

II. c. PIester, boot and shoe merchant OF
Petoskey, Mich, received three cases OF shoes
from VIM. Brewster, OF Georgetown, Mass.
One Of the eases was somewhat broken and
when the dozen shoe boxes in IL were taken
out seven OF them were found TO contain
each pound cartridge OF dynamite. packed
In with the shoes. IL was at first supposed
TO be an April fool joke. but examination
showed that the cartridges were genuine
aud loaded with high explosive. One car
fridge was exploded and the violence OF the
conclusion indicated that the seven were
sufficient 20 blow the whole block sky high.
IL IL supposed that the dynamite was packed
in the box with the intention OF blowing up
some depot or wfecking a train. though
there are some persons who believe that the
purpose was to destroy a business block In
that city. The box showed plainly that II
had been opened before being received by
Piester. Fortunately the cartridges were
frozen and did not thaw out during transit,
and thus the hendish plot was thwaried..

APilsrimage to Canterbury.

A unique event took place recently.
1t was the first organized Pilgrim
age to Canterbury of late years, and
large number of Catholics jour-
neyed by rail and road to this an
cient center OF religious devotion. In
pre-Reformation days the shrine of st.
Thomas was the great place of pilgrim
age not merely for England, but from all
parts OF Europe. The shrine was plum
dered and violated by Henry VIII, but
the pilgrims will still be able to visit.
in the cathedral, the chapel where it
stood, and the still Older chapel which
was the scene of the famous prelate's
murder. 1t is proposed to have service
for the pilgrims in the new Catholic
church of st. Thomas-itself gem of
modern Gothic architecture-with an
address by Father Morris, F. S. A, and
then to inspect the various places in the
city that are linked with ancient
ecclesiastical traditions.

A Distressing Accident That VIII
Likely Result in the Death Of an
Aged Lady.
Wichita Eagle.
Yesterday Mrs. Schlief, an aged lady
living several miles southwest of the
Garfield university, was horribly gored
by an Infatuated COW. Dr. Bass was
summoned, and did all in his power to
relieve her suffering, but no hopes are
entertained Of her recovery. Until re-
Gently the COW had been very gentle,
and the children and ladies might go
near her and pet her with impunity.
After her calf was born she was kept
tied up around the house. and became
more than usually gentle. Several days
ago the calf was taken from her. and she
i'll some manner got loose and wandered
off in search of her offspring, dragging
the rope after her. The rope finally
became entangied in some bushes and
the COW was made prisoner and held
until found two days afterwards. In the
meantime she was without food or
water, and upon being released became
furious, attacking everybody within
her reach. Yesterday she was brought
back to the house, and to all appear
ances had recovered from the effects of
her prlvationS and was AS gentle as
ever. During the forenoon, Mrs.
Schlief, who is siXty-fye years of age,
had occasion to go near her, and the
cow began to show symptoms of anger.
Being a woman of more than ordinary
courage, she faced the Infatuated ami
mai and by mere force Of will subdued
for the moment the spirit which
prompted the attack. As soon
as her attention was withdrawn the Ell
ragged cow rushed at her, goring her in
a most frightful manner. Ii assistance
had reached her moment later she
would have been killed cn the spot.
Two men with stout eudgels had all
they could do to beat the COW back from
the attack. The lady's clothes were
nearly hooked off of her and the. lower
part OF the abdomen torn for distance
OF eight inches and the peritoneum bad
ly lacerated. The physician on his ar
rival replaced ffle protruding intestines
and stitched up the cash, leaving her as
comfortable as possible under the cir
'ctmstances. In speaking of the matter
atterward, he said it would be nothing
less than miracle if the lady ever re-
covered.

THIRST FOR KNOWLEDGE.

Young Men and Maidens Take Up
High School Extension Work.
1t was not generally known that the
board of education had, at its last meet
ing, authorized the commencement of
high school extension work on the plan
of university extension. As it was,
nearly hundred young men and
women went to the high school build
ing last evening to Indicate that they
desired to join the classes to be formed.
Superintendent Gilbert was present,
and soon had the people classified and
classes organized for high school exten-
sion. The class IN electricity already
numbers thirty. In algebra there are
twenty. The class in mechanical draw
ing numbers twenty three. Quite a
number expressed a desire to study
geometry. These classes will be largely
augmented by the next meeting,
which is Wednesday evening at
7:3O. The classes will meet
three evenings in the week, and will be
conducted from 80 to 9:30. Arrange
ments will be made SO that students can
take up more than one study. The
high school extension promises to be
very popular. Persons under age will
be admitted free Of tuition. Adults
VIII De charged not more tnan 81 per
month, and probably the board Of edu-
cation will decrease the price.
Prof. William Il. Williams will con-
duct the class in electricity. 1t is sig
niticant fact that number of the thirty
who have taken this study are railroad
employees. who see that the day is not
far distant when electricity will be the
motive power OH railroads, and they
want to be in line when that day
comes. They have taken the cue
from the action of railroads
in Chicago and other large cities
that have already adopted the electric
motor for moving trains within city
limits. The high school laboratory is
we'll supplied with electrical apparatus,
and the board of education has ordered
Important additions to it. This will be
placed at the disposal Of the high
school extension class.
Prof. IL. B. Sawyer will have charge
of the classes in mathematics.
Prof. A. A. Gordon will instruct the
class in mechanical drawing.
1t is expected that all of the classes
will De organized Oil Wednesday even
ing, and the evenings on which the sew
eral classes will meet be determined
upon.

1t is far surprising our expectations"
is the way Prof. Carman. principal of
the high shoot and president OF the
academy of science, spoke in answer to
question put to him last evening.
Shortly before o'clock the people
poured into the high School building to
the number of over 800, and repaired to
the rooms where classes were being
organized and to listen to the opening
lectures Of the several courses begun
last evening. A large card at the en-
trance to the building indicated the
several rooms to which the different
classes had been assigned. Many of the
people are mlddle-aged men and women,
and quite a few are past middle age.
They divided off and went to the sew
eral rooms much after the manner in
which school children would. Two of
the rooms were filled up. and Assembly
hall contained about fifty persons.
The lectures commenced promptly at
o'clock. They were intr ductory in
character, outlining the several courses.
and were edifying and interesting. The
people seemed more enthused after the
lectures closed than they did before-if
such thing be possible.
The class In English literature now
numbers about $50. and somewhat more
than that number listened to the lecture
in Assembly hall by the instructor,
George E. Maclean. Phi. d., of the uni-
versity. His course Of lectures will be,
IAN Outline of Old and Middle English
Literature" His introductory lecture
was divided as follows: photography.
nnG Of I
portance of English Literature, Time of
the Rise of Literature. The Land of the
Literature, and The Race. concluding
with special studies for review.
About seventy persons have been en-
rolled in the history class. The room
assigned to it was so well filled that
extra seats were carried in. III. p
Judson, NJ. A.. of the university, has
ch arge of this class. His lectures will
be on England from the Renaissance to
the Nineteenth Century" The lecture
last evening was Introductory in
character. He divided the course into
three periods: Tudor and Reforma-
ton, Stuart and Revolution, and Bruins
wick and Reaction. The first OF these
divisions of time was taken up and
discussed under the three subheads of (D
Che State of the Christendom in the
Fifteenth Century, % The Revolu-
ton in knowledge, 81 European Poll
ties in the Sixteenth Century.
Over fifty have taken up the study
of political science. DR.. Folwell, for
merly president of the state university
and at present filling the chair in
political sceince at the university, has
charge of this class. His lectures will
be on International law, exclusive of in
ternal relations. His Introductory leet-
ure was divided into the following
heads: Definition of the Term. Decis-
ions, Methods of Study, Scope and
Source of the Law.
A complete and exhaustive syllabus
of each lecture is prepared and dis
tributed to each member of the classes
each evening. Hereafter class exercises
will be conducted in addition to the
