PARIS, March .16.-As a result of the
rigorous search which has been instituted
by the authorities, a discovery has been
made which may possibly lead to the detec-
ton of persons concerned in various ex-
plosions which have recently occurred
here. While the police were prosecuting
their scrutiny of the dwellings of sus-
picious persons in the suburbs of this city
to-day, they overhauled a collection of
articles evidently intended to be used in the
manufacture of explosive machines. These
things were found in the rooms of
anarchists in St. Denis, town in
the department of the Seine five and one
half miles north of the center of Paris. A
bomb fully charged with deadly explosive
was also discovered in the house occupied
by an anarchist in the kadbourg st. An

fully of the cordial relations existing be-
tween the two sister republics and OF the
progress OF repuhlicanism throughout the
world and the decay Of the mcnarchial
systems.
The remainder OF the programme was
musical. and every volunteer was not only
raptur0usly applauded and recalled. but
loaded down with flowers. From one of
the bouquets thus brought on the stage a
white dove was released and flew to the
gallery. Senorita Cathie Coursen sang

Political Prisoner Who Became Sea-
sick While In a Box.
New York Sun.
In January, 1891. arevolt against the Por-
tuguese Government occurred in Oporto. A
number of the leaders of the revolt were
transported as prisoners to Angola, West
Africa, and by various surreptitious meth
ods they have left the country Of their invol-
untary exile as rapidly as possible. A great
many Portuguese in Angola are sti ongly re-
publican in sentiment. and, being far away
from the central authority. they express their
feelings quite openly and without much fear
of punishment. They have assisted the lead
ers OF the Oporto rebellion to escape. One OF
the leaders fled from Mossam edes in sailing
vessel. Two others departed from Loanda,
the thriving metropolis of Angola. They
were shipped as merchandise. Their
friends packed them In two cases, In which
a few holes had been made to let in the air.
The shippers of these unusual packages re-
Quested that the boxes be kept on deck
The steamship that took the freight away
was a French vessel and the boxes were
consigned to GabooD, which is in French
territory.
Unfortunately, before the vessel had gone
many miles from Loanda one of the fug-
tiyes became violently seasick in his con-
strained and uncomfortable quarters. The
Angola newspapers, which contain report
OF the adventure. say that he became so
desperately i'll that he cared not whether
he lived or died. and determined in his des-
peration to have more air. cost what 1t
might. lie knocked one of the boards off
his box and was discovered by the crew.
The French captain, who was furious at the
imposition, put the fellow in chains and.
stopping at Ambriz, delivered HIM and his
cornrade to the Portuguese authorities The
contents of the other box had been sus-
pected to be c0ntraband as soon as one of
the fugitives was discovered.
At Ambriz, however. the entire popula-
tlon is republican, and the sprominent men
of the town wed with one another TO make
the prisoners as comfortable as possible.
In few hours a handsome sum OF money
had been raised, and several days later they
were clandestnely shipped to Gaboon,
where they found their cOmrade from Mos
samedes.
Another of the ringleaders was more for
tunate in his attempt 10 escape in box
He made the journey safely to Gaboon
from Princes Island. The fugitives are
enjoying civilization now in Paris, where
they can bid defiance to the Portuguese
Government because political prisoners are

An old-Iimer Has to Let One Fish Go
in Order to Catch Another.
Forest and Stream
About ten days ago the writer, while out
fishing with friend, witnessed a perform
ance which was about as amusing to the
spectators as it was provoking to the person
most concerned in the affair. Mr.. Bare and
l were returning home from trip to the
rifles when we espied Squire Mcneil, an
old veteran fisherman of this place, busily
engaged in fishing for clubs.
AS is his usual custom when out OF bait
the Squire had pulled up a grass patch
leaving his balted hooks trailing out from
the stern of the boat while he went on
about the business of securing more bait.
just as we were passing by at respectful
distance. and had said good-mornng and
what luck" two large bass tackled the two
lines and were off before the Squire had
time to wink; whr-r-r-r-r, whr-r-r-r-r-r
sang out the two reels, up got the Squire
with rod in each hand and trying to keep
both lines tant by a graceful see-saw move
ment OF the body, which must have been
acquired on the dancng-floor years ago.
Well, as matter of course, one rod had
to be dropped; this was done and the fish
was soon free. The other bass had by this
time sought the kindly shelter of some
rocks, snagglng the line badly, and it was
with considerable difficulty that the fish was
finally landed and found to be two
FOUNDER. The Squire is certain that the
bass lost was by far the larger of the two,
but just why he did not hold on to him he
Is not able to explain. We were not near
enough to help the Squire with his fish, nor
were we close enough to hear any ''un-
illgant language. The Squire says there
was none used, he didn't have the time.
The corporation of undertakers of Paris
has formed syndicate and has celebrated
the event with banquet and a concert.

The Last Opportunity to See the Circus
This Season.
There have been big houses at the circus
every night since il opened, but last night
was the biggest of all. and the management
was forced to inform any number of persons
that there was no room.
Those who were turned away were no
doubt disappointed, but they can overcome
their disappointment by going to the big
tent early this afternoon or early this even
ing.
And these will be the two performances
that will close the season.
Those who do not wish TO take chances of
being locked out at the evening performance
will take advantage of the matinee TO wit
ness the most extraordinary show that has
ever been seen under canvas.
The ballet in the first part is not only
magn ficent but is the most magnificent
that has ever been presented TO an audience
in this city.
Then the performances Of the great num-
ber of artists who appear in the rings are
admirable and the trained animals are adj
mired by all, while the several clowns
amuse the little ones and make the grown
people smile at their drolleries.

HE HAD TO GO.

Consul MoCreery's Course Not Satisfactory to
the State Department.
NEW YORK, Sept. 16. - The Herald's
Washington correspondent telegraphs: l
learn to-day that the resignation of William
B. McCreery, Consul at Valparaiso, was
received at the State Department on Sep
tember 6.
1t was written by McCreery after his re-
turn to this country, and it is intimated that
he only forwarded il after he became salts
fed that the department desired no longer
to continue him in the service.
The State Department officials are ex-
tremely reticent, hut there is apparently
little doubt that McCreery was bluntly in
formed that his conduct " hile at VALPARAISO
was far from satisfactory to his official su-
DeriOrs.
