FRENCH ANARCHISTS.
The Conspiracy Of Ravachol and
His Accomplices.

PARIS, April 16.-Tbe indictment
Of RavachoI, the anarchist, and his
five accomplic,s, including Mariette
Loubert, mistress Of Dealot, one Of
his accompIices, presented today,
gives the first connected history Of
the conspiracy In which The prison
ers were implicated. The facts Of
the case open in April, 1891, when
DE Camp, an associate Of Chau-
martin was convicted Of wOnndinga
Policeman In an sffray. The plot
ters met at Cbaumartin's house and
arranged a program Of revenge. The
first victims selected were Judge
BenOit, who presided at the trial
that resulted in De Camps convic.
tiDn, and Gouillntt, who prosecuted
him. The Indictment details the
story of the stealing Of the dynamite
and making Of the bombs by Rava-
chol, who filed them with a mixture
Of dynamite, RrosOutine and
iron. The conspirators also planned
to blow up the police station at
Clichy, March 7. Ravael o., Simon
and Beatot went to the police sta
ton, carrying with them sauctpans
loaded With dynamite. They had -
lumber Of fuses ready for use.
When they arrived at the station,
they found an officer standing ip q
doorway. His presence foiled the
design. The indictment next de-
tails the explosion at the residence
If Judge BenOit. i'm the Boulevard
It Germsin, and how, failing to kill
Judge BeDoit, they made a second
attempt. How Ravachol and bis
frllow coDspirators, working by re-
ceipts they procured from the Inter-
ational newspaper, made bomb;
filled it with nitro-glYcerine, mining
jowder and stbastine. The evidence
"a woman named Cbevalier was
nbCdied in the indictment. She
describes how, upon entering the
room in which the conspirators were
at work, she saw Simon holding a
vessel as large as the crown of hat,
while Ravachol was pouring drops
of something into a receptacle, and
Chaumartin was stirring the mixture
with a spoon. Ravachol's indict-
ment states he alone effected the
explosion at the residence of Prose
cutor Bulot, in Rue Clichy. He
placed an explosive compound un-
der the staircase, in the belief that
none of the inmates of the house
could possibly escape death. The
Indictment also reveals the fact that
the prisoners were engaged in a
plot to blow up the palaise de justice
at the time when it was most
crowded.

OKLAHOMA BOOMERS.
Ready to Enter the Reservation
When the Word Comes.

RENO, o. t., April &c.
Boomers continue to pour in all
along the border, but the crowd will
not be as great as that which entered
Oklahoma. Boomers don't seem to
have cash, through most of them
have flour and beacon, and hun
dreds realize that they are not in a
condition to hold down claim, but
hope to secure good piece of land
and sell it out in day or so. If
they fall they will be reduced almost
to starvation. Perhaps 10000 people
are ready to enter from the East,
and 5000 from Wichita county,
while about 5000 Texans are drawn
up on the south line. Not many
people are ON the west side, but
some S506 are east of Cantonnet and
1900 west. No trouble is yet reported,
and none Is anticipated.

received two thousand reports from
grain dealers of Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, and
Missouri, which raise two-thirds of
the winter crop of wheat in the

that the present prospects are for an
average crop. Michigan reports best
prospects, being about an average
while Indiana and Illinois show

Astorian Crimpers.

LONDON, April 16,-Captain Doni.
van of British ship Dumbarton
Rock, at Dunkirk, from Portland,
Oregon, has told for publication his
experencies with "crimpers" while
at Astoria on Nov. 5. The Standard
commenting upon the captains story
points out the urgent necessity of the
government inducing the United
States to abolish crimping, by sup
preston of desertiug, which always
ceased when the shipmasters are
permitted to arrest men who quit
their ships without leave. The
Standard adds. "Gangs of roughs
and 'crimps' which at present infest
and disgrace the ports of the United
States would be compelled to seek
other pursuits If such permission
was given captains of vessels in
American ports.

walton was opened. From the brush
along the shore of the Minnesota
river, from ravines hitherto supposed
unpopulated, from every conceiv-
able spot bordering on the reservs-
iiOn that could shelter man. horse OF
wagon, there sprang horde Of
bOme-seekers, and the race for land
began. There are now fully 5UO0 set
tiers in the reservation, pretty even
ly divided betW eeD the northern and
eastern borders. The squatter is
monarch of all he surveys. Tn,
rush was made with all sorts OF
conveyances - horseback, wagons
buggies and on foot. Riders ano
drivers lashed their horses to th,
top of their speed, in the struggle t.
get there first. Ida Burnett, VIII,

Every section of Corrington county.

five squatters before / O'Clock. Nj
merous alterations ensued, but no
bloodshed is reported. 1t is believed
the sheriff deputies and militia will
be able to maintain order.
Many squatters have already
begun the erection of houses, but in
the majority of cases they have
commenced settlements by digging
wells and cellars or by plOughing
the soil. At Fargo 100 filings were
made in the course of the afternoon.
Rev. Van HorD, of the Baptisr
church, Presiding Elder Cooper of
the Methodist church, and his wife
being among the number. A num-
Der of filers will probably lose their
claims through squatters reaching
the land first. Three thousand men
were in line before the land office in
Watertown. The first place in the
line sold for $1,000, and the twelfth
for 5000 Everything passed of
quietly.
Lee Slower, local attorney, who
purchased the first place at exacty
noon, flied one declaratory, and
rendered ITO others which were re-
jected. Filing proceeded rapidly,
and it is thought the line will be ex;
hausted by night. There is an un.
confirmed report of the billing of
settler, but no particulars of this or
any serious trouble have been re
ceived. Estimates place the num-
Der of settlers who went on the
reservation today at from 2500 to
5000. Every person that wanted a
claim got one, and there seems to be
plenty of vacant land left.

Figures for Illinois.

Hon. Washington Hessing, editor OF
the Chicago Stats Setting was the
spokesman of a committee that appear
ed before Mr.. Cleveland to urge the
establishing of Western headquarters
of the democratic national committee.
Mr.. Hessing spoke especially of the
German vote in the western states,
claiming that when it is cast against
the republicans they are defeated. He
says there are $4,000 German Luther
ans in Illinois; of that number $4,000
are democrats and $4,000 usually vote
with the republicans. "You may con-
gratulate yourself that you stand won
derfully we'll with the Germans" MIR.
Hessing declared.
'Urhere is no man" said Mr.. Hessing,
"of national repute who has strong
hold upon the German people than
YOU. Now of that $4,000 German
Lutheran voters, I think there is no
doubt $4,000 will vote for you. Ihat
makes chance of $4,000 votes. and
will give US majority of $1,000. There
are great many German Protestants
who are not Lutherans, but upon this
question they are united. So that
with proper organization, making it a
campaign of education by discussion
and by literature, for you cannot catch
the Germans with fire rockets and
brass bands, there is no question of
Illinois giving US from 10000 to 10000
majority"
OF course Cleveland expressed his
pleasure at such cheering reports and
it is generally believed a western head
quarters will be established in Chicago.

perature by varying the amount of air
which comes in contact with the stove
while the total supply to the room remains
constant. Thus the quantity of supply is
constant, though the temperature may be
variable.
So much for the supply of the proper
quantity and quality of air. Now as to
the withdrawal of the air from the room.
It should be borne in mind that this warm
air is supplied some seven or eight feet
from the floor. In the vent stack is the
smokepipe from the heater; or, if neces-
sary, part of the heater itself or a drum
or other device which will heat the air in
the vent stack. The vent stack has an
opening at the top and one at the bottom
in the schoolroom. The stack being heat
ed, it causes strong backward draft and
draws the air out of the room as fast as it
comes into it.
The question may be asked, Will this
work in this way! The fact is it does do
work. There is neither patent nor mo-
nopoly on the device. A limited supply is
manufactured in this country, but in the
course of time it will be made and manu-
factured every place if only the people
know of it and demand it. The distribu-
tion of this knowledge is the work of the

Cleaning White Shoes.

A light evening toilet is not complete
without white shoes or slippers, and q
white shoe that is soiled is eXecrable.
There are many popular fallacies in this
world; one is that raw eggs are not good to
eat and another that white shoes are per-
ishable Perishable indeed! Ny white
shoes have lasted me longer than any shoes
l have ever had, and with nothing more
than a little "elbow grease" to preserve
them. Any druggist will sell you ten cents
worth of pipe clay. And who does not pos
sess an old toothbrush? With these two
articles there is no excuse for the dustlness
of your white shoes. Use the pipe clay
dry, taking care always to rub the way of
the grain so as not to roughen the suede.
Do not be afraid to brush hard or to get
too much of the clay on the shoe. You
cannot get too much on, and unless you
are an athlete, with an arm of iron, do
not believe you can brush too hard.
Pipe clay used in the same way will also
clean trimmings of white cloth if they are
excessively soiled. Use the clay wet; it
will make them look badly at first, but if
brushed carefully with clean brush and
fresh water it will dry off in most salts

Oh! say, can you see, through the mists of the
fight,
Democracy's banner still proudly outwaving?
"Tis the one star of hope mid the blackness of
night,
'Tis the symbol of fortune the millions are
craving.
Fierce RACES the fray, and dreadful the day.
But the people, invincible, must win their way.
Then, say, does that emblem of promise still
Our fair land to free with freeman's free
vote?
Oh! bright in its folds there to stand till the

While right needs support or wrong
needs redressing,
Shine the names of our heroes who led in the
past
Our heroes the people encrowned with their
blessing.
And jefferson true and our stanch jackson,
too,
AS of old, cheer us onward to dare and to do;
For Democracy's banner illumines each rift
The naughty to humble, the lowly to lift.
Smiles the confident foe from the pride of his
place,
In his armor of cant and mocking preten.
Though he's darkened the land with clouds Of
+ disgrace,
And ruthlessly planted the seeds of dissen-
sion.
For the classes his zeal, while the masses must
kneel
Till their spirit is crushed meath his arrogant
heel;
But the old pulse of freedom still throbs in
their soul,
And Democracy's banner points true to the
goal.
So, brothers, again hands and hearts let US
clasp;
On, on to the combat, each emulous, vying,
Till we break and for aye fell monopoly's
grasp,
And its trusts and its tariffs lie bleeding and
dying.
Their ranks we will rout, while for Cleveland
we shout,
And Stevenson bold, who will "turn the rogues

And wide DER land with nor pauper nor
