The Anarchists Manual.
-tDZSoT.A.

Tho following manual of rules for the
guidance OF full-fedged Anarchist was
found on the person of distinguished
plotter against society recently arrested
in Spain:
/. The first requisite for an Anarchist
companion" should be an absolute con-
tempt for life.
2. He should recognize no other
country (sic) or law than the Social Rev
olution; no other enemies than capital
and the middle classes.
3. Anarchists must never admit any
division among themselves. They should
recognize no other jurisdiction than thai
of the Tribunal of Honor named by
themselves.
4. The Anarchists are responsible for
each other. Each is bound to hasteu,
at peril of his life, to the defence of his
companions.
5. The Social Revolution must be con.
sidercd as the first of duties and obliga,
tions.
s. The Anarchist should repudate :
every revolutionary movement which ha'
not the destruction of capital for its aim.
Z. No Anarchist may refuse to accom-.
plish the mission allotted to him unless
he is physically incapable of undertaking
it. In which case he will be at once re-
placed by another companion.
8. No Anarchist may fill any public
Office without the full assembly's author.
izstion, nor take part in any manifes.
tation foreign to the cause. His unique
care must be for the Revolution.
9. All Anarchists should know each
other and should have no political se-
crets from each other. They must be-
long to no other group than their own, un
less for the purpose of discovering secrets
profitable to Anarchy, or exposing tn,
manoevers OF treacherous companion,
an accompllce OF the authorities. This
last case will be considered as most
important work done for the cause.
10. Anarchists accept Revolution with
all its consequences, and must bring to
the propagation of their ideas their full
intelligence, energy and courage.
Ii. Article for the use of "conpan-
Ious" designated by lot to do deed of
propagandlsm for the faith. The Au-
archist pursued and obliged to quit a
country should take refuge in some
country outside of Elrope-MoroCco,
for example.

Great Men Who Ate Pie.

A gentleman OF Concord, Mass, the
heart OF the pie eating district Of New
Eugland, has taken occasion to tell the
people of the West what he knows about
pie as an intellectual factor. He boldly
asserts that pic of various kinds is 8
brain stimulator, and he cites Emerson,
Gladstone, Carlisle, Moliere and Others
as giants who thrived on pie. Emerson,
in particular, was known to eat two and
three pieces of pic for breakfast as sort
OF foundation for literary exercise, aud
the gentleman contends that what was
good and healthy enough for Emerson
ought to be good enough for anybody.
So earnest and seemingly convincing il
this pic euloglst in his enthusiasm that it
would seem ut first that PIE ought to be
introduced into the public schools as a
part Of the curriculum. But this would
involve fresh complications. 1t is now
matter OF history that Whittier, the
gentlc Quaker poet, not only eats pie,
but fairly shovels it into his mouth with
his knife.-kansas City Star.

Giant Powder In Their Boots.

1t is curious fact that no one miner
out of every hundred who has had any
experience will do anything but put the
sticks of giants powder into his bootlegs.
He knows just about how much giant
powder he will need during the shift,
and these he receives before he enters the
shaft house to go down. Then he care
fully places it in the leg of his boot and
in this manner conveys it into the mine.
The miners have stopped "crimping" the
Illuminating caps with their teeth. This
is due, probably, to the suicide at Chi
cago of Lingg, one OF the anarchists, who
was sentenced to be hanged with Spies
and the rest. Lingg exploded one of
the caps by biting it andsblcw most of
his head off. Now the majority of the
miners crimp the cap on the heel of taeir
boot with knifc.-Great Divide.

It has been estimated that %, 900
horses are employed in the carrying trade
of London, that their value is S6, $50, 900,
aud the cost is for food alone 81 900, 600
a year. A rule prevails OF foraging the
horses on six cents an inch per week,
that is, horse costs as many quarters OF
a dollar a week as it stands hands high.
The heavier horses employed in the four
horse drays weigh nineteen hundredth
weight. The Great Western Railway
Company have 500 horses in one new
stable at Paddington, in which they have
four floors one above another, the top
floor being almost as high as the hotel,
with a lookout over the station roof. No
railway company buys horse after he is
seven years old. The Midland has 1850
horses, the Great Northern 1900, the
Great Western 100, the Southwestern
$50, the Southeastern 275, and the
Brighton 225. The London and North
western has only $50 horses, but Pick
ford 6 Co., who do most of the North
western business, have 1000 horses. Car.
ter Patterson's, delivery business, have
1000. The Railway News says the ma
jority OF London railway horses work
seventy hours a week. In Carter Pat.
terson's, only one parcel in 10000 it is
said, goes wrong. AS rule the LONDON
railway horse is bought at $500 and sold
after five years work at $50 or $50.

It seems pity to the New York

in the Southern Hemisphere. The nc
count of that execution was going out

New York at 4 o'clock that morning,

according to time records- The ap-
parent paradox of reading about a

difference in diurnal time, but what

is recalled of a man who, becoming

threaten, II the gamblers don't stop

altogether. This threat has thrown
the community into fever of excite

John L. and the Man in the Moon-The
Maverick Bank Cases-The Fourth
Lelf Entitled to the Honors The
Growth of Boston Theatrical Gossip.

John l.. and the Man In the Moon.
Our big bruiser, John L. Sullivan, was on
the warpath one day last week, and while
making things jingle In the fremont House
barroom, he is said to have expressed him
self In these vigorous but modest words;
Gimme just one swipe at the man in the
moon, and I'll bet thousand there won't he
any man left" This expression OF grand
and noble soul will pass into history rs AL
epigram worthy Of Homer, IL not entirely
satisfactory to the literary tastes Of modern
Athens. While it is the mere
fancy of chidboods vivid imagin-
alton that there exists man in the moon,
John probably only used the expression to
show how insignificant was everything on
this terrestrial sphere when compared with
bis own physical proves. 1t Is not at al!
likely that he seriously entertained the idea
of "swiping," in a literal sense, the man in
the moon, as he is well aware that one blow
from his powerful fist would send our
satellite back into the nebulous atoms from
which 1t sprang or scatter 1t through space
In the form of an impalpable powder.
The Maverick Bank Cases.
Judge Nelson's compliment to the person
who drew up the indictments against Messrs.
Potter, French and Dana In the Maverick
National Bank cases ought to send him into
oblivion without any great amount OF legal
ceremony. In summarily throwing them
out of court, Judge Nelson said: These in
dictments are expressed in terms so con-
fused. involved and contradictory and so
stuffed with yerbiagc, repetitions and sur
plusage, that It Is next TO impossible to con-
lecture upon what grounds it Is expected to
convict the defendants. To indictments
drawn as these are. the defendants ought
not to be required to plead" In view of
this opinion by an eminent jurist, the ques-
lion naturally arises, is the United states
district attorney so manifestly incompetent
TOR the important office, or were the docu-
ments purposely juggled In the interests Of
those accused?

The Growth of Boston.

The Sunday Herald contained u very III
teresting article on the growth OF the city
aud suburbs, and one which required vast
amount OF labor and research in its prepara-
ton. The FIRST census given Is in 1888, four
years after the Rev. William Blackstone
sold Boston ITO colonists from Salem for
| E3O." At that date the population was $50;
| 81 years later 1t had grown TO 1000; % later,
1000; G years after, or in 1901, the popua
tlon had fallen off to 6T50 from cause unex-
planned. The next figures given are for the
census of 1920, when Boston had 1900; i;
In 1922 the first enumeration occurred,
which showed 10,567. From that date
to iT75 the town held its own pretty well but
that and the following year showed the
effects of the siege, the people fleeing until
there were but Gj73 In the first
named year and 27I9 in 1919.
Boston did not recover until the end
of the revolution, but from 1874 down to the
present there Is a steady growth. The
| unusual gains between 1865 and 1870, and
between the latter and 1875, are due to the
aunexations of Roxbury, dorchester, West
Roxbury, Brighton and Charlestown.
