King Humbert Threatened With Death
by Dynamite.
"They are neither very friendly nor very
pious hands," says the Rome correspondents
of the Paris Figaro, ''that undertook TO pre-
pare dynamite bombs for the King of Italy,"
BY way of preface the son of Victor Eai-
manuel had received note couched In the
following rather realistic language:
Old Ridiculous King: II you do not abdfcate by
the 2lsI OF March, tho Nihilist Executive Com
mittee, of which am member, will make YOU
Jump In The air by means of dynamite. OF this
loyalty advise you.
This amiable letter was dated from
Perousa and was consequently placed by
the Minister of the Interior in the hands Of
the Government of that province with orders
to ascertain its author. The local police re-
ported that it suspected one Vncenzo Cal
zoni a well-known anarchist, and placed
him at once under strict surveillance. A
few days later it was ascertained that Cal
zoni had received packages of dynamite. A
search resulted in the discovery of dynamite
in CalZOnps house and in the arrest Of Luigi
Pedroni and Angelo Pennacchi as his ae-
completes. while CalZoni himself was found
In Rome, engaged in studying the daily
movements of the King, for the purpose, it
is charged. of certaning the best mode Of
aSsassnating him.
The trial ended, after four days duration,
on March 4th, with the acquittal of the ae-
cuSed, in spite of overwhelming testimony.
There are other bandits, however, who ia
terest and concern our people even more
closely than these alleged eonspirators-
brigands who carry on their depredations at
the very gates OF Rom Our new Minister OF
the Interior should be quite capable of rid
ding us of these pests, for it was he who,
upon his first entry iuto public life, made
the reputation OF being man of force and
who suppressed brigandage in Sicily. He
need not go that far this time to utilize his
talents.
Upon former occasion have spoken Of
an old brigand, TiburZi by name, who has
lived in grand style for twenty years or
more in the vicinity of Cevita Vecehia and OF
Bracciano. He IS complete outlaw aud
yet never appreheneed by the authorities.
TiburZi has of late retired from active busi-
ness, and commits no more depredatlonS or
murders, bnt instead he is levying tax
from number of rural proprietors. gradu-
ated according 10 their wealth, which he
goes twice year to collect, either in person
or By Ills secretary, who carries duly at
tested power Of attorney.
Another and still more dangerous brigand
has for some time caused people TO talk, He
calls himself Ansuini and with his retainerG
operates in the DeghbOrhood of Viterbo,
short distance from Rome. The escapes OF
this bandit border on the miraculous. Four
times he has been arrested, but in spite OF the
most careful precautionary measures he has
always managed to regain his liberty. Soms
time ago Ansuiui's band murdered man by
the name of Silvestri, whose corpse was dis
covered but q few days ago under SJrange
circumstances. Two mounted police noticed
near Valecupa dog carrying part of a
human thigh 10 state Of decomposition.
Tho dog W as captured, and in order tomaks
him return to the place where he got his
ghastly load he was kept for three days
without food of any kind. Set atliberty the
dog went straight to piece of woods near
Vallecupa and to little pile of dry leaves,
under which the remains of the unfortunate
Silvestri were found.
Will it be possible to lay hands on Ansuini
for fifth time? 1t is, TO say the least, very
doubtful, Oh account of the aid he finds
among the peasants and the shepherds, who,
for fear of bloody vengeance, assist the
brigands in hiding themselves instead Of de-
nOuncing them 40 The DOlice
