TIE small boys of well-bred families
in New York are said to be playing the
mischief these days. A few days ago
three of them were brought into the po-
lice court for organizing themselves as
Texas Rangers" and painting green
the marble statues of Central park, let
ting the foxes out of cages and playing
other pranlls. A day or two later nine
more were brought to the jefferson Mar
lSct court The policeman's story was:
"Thcy's been doing the Buffalo Bill act
and lassoed conductor rs he was
riding by on the rear platform of his
car. He was jerllcd off the car and
nearly strangled. They told me that
when they caught him they took a turn
around n lamp post and the post did the
rest. They also lassoed passers-by and
said that they were Indians on the war
path"

PROTECTION FOR GLADSTONE.
The English Authorities Believe in Fol-
n,idahls Dynamite Conspiracy.


The English Authorities Believe in q For
n,idahle Dynamite Conspiracy.
LONDON, Dec. 80-The authorities ap
pear to be so strongly convinced that thu
Dublin explosion, by which Detectiv,
Synnott lost his life, was part of the work
of band of conspirators, that they hav'
sent a detective to Biarritz to keep guard
over Mr.. Gladstone, and protect him
from outrage.
Mr.. Gladstone has not been made aware
Of the precaution taken, as it is know
that he would resent any protection OF
the kind, should he be aware of it.
Home Secretary Asquith is also pro
tected when he goes out in public, by q
detective in civilian attire, who keeps
near enough to interfere in the event OF
an attack upon the Secretary.
In view of all the precautions taken,
the opinion prevails that the authorities
are in possession of definite imfor
nation as to the existence of formidable
dynamite conspiracy.

Cholera Commissioners Indignant

ST.. PETERSBURG, Dec. 30.-The younger
members of the Cholera Commission are
indignant at the farcical proceedings of
the Commission. They declare that
their time was wasted, the old medical
officials reading reports praising the be-
neficence of the Government and indulg
ing in fulsome flattery of the nobility.

American Schools.

In a recent editorial the Boston Jour
nal makes the following reasonable
and just appeal for the fullest represen-
the worlds fair:
There are none of our institutions
in which patriotic Americans take a
keener pride than our schools, acade-
mics and colleges. Our great common
school system is our unique glory. To
make display of American products
and progress which ignored the schools
of the country would be short-sighted
and absurd. 1t was at the express and
repeated invitation of the directors of
the worlds fair that the educational au-
thorities in the several states, aided by
prepare suitable exhibits of the
work of the schools and colleges.
Large sums of money have already been
expended in this way, with n promise
of the most satisfactory results, and the
exhibition space asked for is likely to
be too small rather than too large for
the purpose There should be q prompt
and general protest against any mig
gardly caprice on the part of the
directors of the fair which should end
in the refusal to grant adequate space
and make suitable appropriations The
directors are acting as trustees of the
interests of the people, and they must
be held to strict accountability for
the manner in which they fulfill the
trust. The reasonable demand OF the
educational committee must be rein
forced by a declaration of public senti,
ment."

Paris Excited Over an Explosion.

PARIS, Dec. 30.-An explosion at 1880 a.
M. in the hall leading to the suite of
offices between the ground floor and the

vestigation is being held.

THE TUBE ENTERED HIS EYE.
Peculiar Accident to n Boy While
Shooting Expedition.

WILMINGTON, N. c., Dec. 3O.-Andrew
Black, youth of IS, son of A. L. Black,
went out yesterday to shoot birds. He
had an improvised gun made of a brass
tube ten inches in length and quarter of
an inch in diameter.
He overloaded the tube and when he
fired the recoil was so great that the tube
entered his eye, penetrating to consider
able depth.
Black withdrew it himself, walked
about hundred yards and fell uncon-
scious and has remained in that condition
ever since.
Four surgeons have been called in and
pronounce the case almost hopeless
