Ger above referred to, and thus obtained for
his oollaboratuers their first foothold in
the ranks OF the army, As the French de-
tachmants stationed at Bonneville ara sub
ject to frequent changes, now officers were
constantly arriving whose visits to Geneva
resulted in their b0ing approached by IN
a~rclists. and the cases of successful prose-
lytism became alarmingly frequent. When
thess regiments were ordered to new sta
places anarohical principles, ind thus the
slight" was spread throughon t the army.
Before describing some of the methods in
vogue at the Geneva school of instruction I
shall follow the career of Martinez to Paris.
where last June he was alraigned with sew
eral companions upon the charge of melting
sedition in the army. The case was ad-
journed until last January. when the ao-
eused were sentenced by default to various
terms of imprisonment, which we're reduced
considerably upon appeal.
One OF Martinet7s confederates was a
certain Mile. Bruguiere. an extraordinary
woman, who, though not possessed of much
physical attraction, is noted for a strange
power of fascination. This woman has
played an important part in the demorali-
cation of the military. Cnriously enough
when Martinez and the others were sen
tencsd in January Mile. Btuguiers was ar
ralRued at the Same time and acquitted.
Consequently she was at large at the time
OF the explosion at the Libau barracks n
few weeks ago, and it is not hard to draw
some shrcwd conclusions from this fact.
1t is we'll known to those who are best in
formed that some officers from Bonneville
have been lately in Paris and renewed their
acquaintance with Mile Brnguiere, who in
the past WAS wont to pay fteunsnt fyinu
visits to Geneva, where she acdu ired n

wheresoever he may fnd him aelf, may be
au fait in their construction. A certain
anarchist named Ravachol, alias koeniRs-
stern, alias Blenner, recently arres ted IN
Paris, is said to have opened a factory Of
such Internal machines near Paris.
One Of these is a bomb concealed in the
form of a hand satchel, shown in diagram
No. L. The interior of the satchel is oc-
cupied by several compartments. The
space marked B is filed with small, jagged
pieces of iron. In the small divisions G
and G ia a quantity of illuminate. Commu-
nicating with these and ending in the key
hole OF the satchel is a glass tube CD con-
tanning sulphuric acid. A heavy fall will
cause the glass tube to break and the acid
to be discharged into the illuminate, thus
creating an exI losion of the dynamite CA
AZ which occupies the remaining space in
the satchel.
Another ingeniously conceived engine of
destruction Diagram No. p is fixed within
an ordinary leather hat case. The case is
lined throughout with a sheeting OF meta |
and a 5crosswork of metal tubing (EE) is
placed in it. rs shown in the diagram.
These contain inner tubes of glass (AA) en-
closed by the iron rings COY. The metal
tubes are filled with chIorate Of potash and
the glass with sulphuric acid. Owing to
the construction of the hat case if it is
thrown upon the ground one of the
glass tubes must break, when the
fusion of the ohlorate OF potash
with the sulphurio acid causes instant

reformers noise abroad the results of their
deliberations But the extension of their
propaganda is not limited to the home
cirole'' as represented by their immediate
believers and disciples. To explain my
meaning a slight DEPRESSION is here essen
tial.
At the picturesque town of Bonneville, on
the River Arve. some twenty-five kilometres
in 4 southeasterly direction from Geneva,
in the department Haute Savols, whence
French troops are dispatched in the ordi-
nary course of regimental duty in times of
peace. in the absence OF restrictions pre-
venting tho French officers from crossing
into alien territory the social attractions of
Geneva have always proved a drawing card
to them. Naturally they drift into the
pleasant adjacent city. where conRenial
companionship and q suroeAse from the
dreary oun Of barraok life are to be found.
In the pleasant cafes of Geneva and along
its cheerful streets the red trousers of the
Gallo officer are as familiar to the specta-
tors as the more sombre attire of Switzer-
lands defenders. lnsensibly the artificial
lin of territorial demarcation has been
obGterated until common and congenial
intercourse has resolved itself into an or
binary feature of daily occurrence, deriv-
ing its raison k'erre from the natural pro-
pinquity and sympathy Of neighborine
peoples. Now, the field presented by a ma
tional army for the dissemination Of the
ories-to be carried in many instances into

For Il long time they awe gazed with
longing eyes upon the possible achievements
of enlisting in their cause the vast and
widely permeAting influence OF the military
forces of France. For n long time the
Geneva anarchists have made the most of
the opportunities afforded them by the pres-
ence Of French officers. Incidentally, and
In line with the exchange of social cour-
tesles. they have ventilated their theories
of human acknowledgements. The work was
of an uphill natfre for a long period, until,
after a series of many failures to produce
fruitful soil. The condition under which
my information WAS obtained prscludes me
from mentioning the name of the French
oif1cer who two years ago succumbed to the
DESIGNS OF the anarchists. He WAS the first
to absorb IN his own personality the tenets
and enthusiasm OF his teachers and to con-
vey into the ranks of the French army ideas
which have since been widely circulated
and borne fruit.
The world may think that the sporadic
attempts at violence which il hears from
time to time are the sole evidences OF life
IN the anarchist organization; that the
ana seek no further to extend their ideas.
1t appears, however, that outside Geneva is
located a school of practical instruction in
anarohlal methods n principles the main
feature of which ia tuition in a species Of
applied chemistry. Those who come within
the fold are here initiated Into the mys-
teries OF manufacturing explosives and
contrlvances for transporting them from

4 to hand. and judging from the com-
ments they contain upon the late anarchist
outbreaks I gather that much misapprehen-
sion exists in the United States regarding
the real inWardness of the movement and
its secret workings in Europe. Most
Americans are aware that this historic and
picturesque, Swiss town has for q long time
been the refuge and headquarters OF the
disciples OF that curious social development
OF modern times known to che world at
large as anarchists. Geneva is the shrine
of political oranks of every nationality, who

publican Switzerland, where the snowclad
Alpine ranges are almost mirrored in the
CLASSY waters of its famous lake. where

Imitation Mountain.

Just now, at the Office of the Geo
logical Survey, they are engaged in
building imitation mountains, for the
purpose Of studying the way in which
the eternal hills were formed by the
crumpling due to the contraction Of
the earth's crust. The coal basins and
other valuable mineral deposits in
many parts Of the United States have
undergone just such crumpllng, SO
that it shall resemble in consistency
the brittle rocks near the surface OF
the earth or the plastic rocks which
are in that condition because OF the
great pressure that exists even at
depths OF only two or three miles, us
the case may be. The mixture is cast
in layers Of given thickness by
melting aud flowing it in Il wooden
trough.
When each layer has hardened it
is taken out, and 4 number OF layers
thus made are superimposed one up
on the other like layers Of jelly cake,
representing geological strata. The
next process is to place the layers in
a machine. piling shot on top Of them
to represent the force of gravity,
after which pressure is applied from
the ends very slowly by a piston adj
yanced with Il screw. This causes
chem to crumple UP, and under the
artificial contraction they are found
to take precisely the forms of noun
tain ranges like the Alleghanies.
