DYNAMITE IN rERIIN.
Excitement Over Blowing Up of Popuiar
Resort


dynamite outrage OF a serious character
has caused general excitement throughout the
city of Berlin. One of the favorite refresh.
ment pavilions in the Thiergarten is known 40
Zalten Number Four. Yesterday this pavilion
was blown up with dynamite. The extent u
the damage is very great. though no loss Of life
is reported. The explosion caused a panic in
the neighborhood, and for a time il was sup
posed that many had been killed This was
happily not confirmed.
Many rumors are afoat as to the cause Of the
outrage. One is that the walters have not been
properly treated and that one OF more Of them
took this method OF showing discomfort and
warning their employees Another rumor is
that the perpetrator of the act was an anarchiss
who had been requested 10 leave the place be-
cause his imprudent utterances attracted too
much attention from the police. The police
are actively investigating.

mas Gifts.
This morning about I O'Clock Policeman
Trainor had lively time in house in Browns
alley, near 4th and NJ streets northwest, where
he went to arrest colored man named Richard
Ford who was unde- the influence Of liquor
and who had thrown kerosene lamp against the
wall
one Of Ford's sisters said that Richard had
thrown the lamp at them and said he would
burn them up. George Ford informed the
officer that he could not take his brother
Richard without warrant and said: You will
have to take him over my body"
The officer wasted nearly an hour at the
house on account Of Georges interference, and
when assistance reached the house both George
and Richard were taken to the station. The
former was charged with having assaulted the
officer and the latter with assault on his sister,
Judge Miller heard the cases today and
George claimed that one Of the officers struck
him. The judge recognized George as having
been previously sentenced for assaults and
questioned him as to where be got his informs-
ton about policemen arrestin8 people without
q warrant George did not remember having
said anything about a warrant.
Lawyer Moss, who appeared for George. said
he hoped that the doctrine preached to large
audience recently would not spread among this
class OF people, as 1t was entirely wrong, but in
this case he thought George Was not in such
q position.
Judge Miller said that the large number of
serious assaults by colored people upon others
of their own color was to be deplOred. In this
case, the Judge said, the officer did his duty
when he responded to the urgent call; it was his
duty to take the man at the risk Of his own
life.
The judge said he wanted to stop this sort Of
interference with officers while in discharge Of
their duty and make them learn to respect the
Law, as respect for the law and not for senti-
ment makes citizens.
Richard was given sixty days in Jail and
George was fined go or sixty days.

to him that he might trap some of the
