A BANK BLOWN UP
It is Now a Reign of Terror
in Paris. =
MORE EXPLOSIONS THREATENED
Judge BenOit Ordered to Leave His HOuss
by the Owner.

A Rich Distilier Warned that His House
win be Blown Up on May Day-It il
Thought that the Anarchists Guilty of
Recent Explosion Can be Punished with
DoAth-The Reds watChsd in London
All Baggage will be Examined.
PARIS, March 30.-There was a dyna-
mite explosion late yesterday afternoon
in the building of the Credit Lyonnais,
one of the largest banking institutions
Of the city.
Police are in charge Of the building
and refuse to let anybody approach. Two
arresti have been made.
The bank building is one Of the most
important in Paris INTELLECTUALLY. 1t is
a massive building, in the heart of the
great business quarter. It Is unlikely to
be more than wrecked in q room or two.
Probably the explosive was placed in
the courtyard.
The Anarchists have sent warning to
q rich distiller named Premier, who
lives in Romans, in the Department of
Drome. They threaten that his distiIlery
will be blown up with dynamite on May
Day. They have no grudge against him,
but will destroy his building because he
is the richest man in the place. NJ Bulot,
the public prosecutor, in answer to In
quiries about the dynamite outrage at
his residence, says:
eat the trial Of the Anarchists in
August / demanded the heads Of De-
camps and Dardare. The jury was timid
and only imposed three years. imprison-
ment. Juries are SO cowardly that
doubt if any would convict Ravachol If
arrested. 1 am Radical, even a Social
list, but reprobate Anarchism. 1t is ex-
tremely probable that there is a grudge
against me. Decamps, who is violent
fanatic and who is now in Poisey Prison,
is the real leader of his party. He is
beloved by his wife, who may be secretly
melting his friends"
Premier LOUDER has conferred with the
chief of the detective force. It was re-
solved that all who were arrested on
suspicion should be treated with the ut
most rigor. The landlords of buildings
in which officials believed to be obnox-
ious to Anarchists reside are getting anx-
ious about their property, and Judge
Benoit has received notice to quit. His
landlord had received notices from his
tenants that they would quit if Benott
did not.
The Royalist Gazette de France, is
trying to make political capital out of
these attempts. 1t taunJs the Republi-
cans with having banished God, liberty
and honesty, with having set up statues
to insurgents and celebrated anniversa-
ries of rebellions. They are now reapinR
what they have sown. The harvest is
not yet ripe, but will be so quickly.
1t is thought that the Anarchists
guilty of the recent explosions can be
punished with death under the law then
in force. This, however, is somewhat
| doubtfuI

WASHINGTON, March 30.-A pathetic
coincidence was observable in the death
at the Providence Hospital the other day
of Mrs. Clark, widow of the original
founder of Tombstone, Ariz. Mrs. Clark
came to Washington from San Francisco
a month ago with her daughter, just out
of school. After a few days sightseeing
she was taken i'll and grew constantly
worse until death. Mr.. Clark died sew
eral years ago in Washington under
precisely similar conditions, having
come here for a short visit to see the
sights of the capital. He was buried in
Congressional Cemetery and Mrs. Clark
will probably lie by mis- side.

ABOUT ADVERTISING,

Advertising is science and art COM
bined. To know how to place an adj
vertisement where it will do the most
good; how to frame it, and the amount
of space it should occupy; how to get
the greatest good for the least money, is
a problem when solved, would rarely
fail to make advertising pay.
First, the advertiser should have an
article that he can recommend-one
that will give satisfaction to the pur.
chaser.
Second, he should look for the me.
dunn through which the largest number
of buyers can be reached.
In this connection the DEMOCRAT
offers legitimate trade in all..branches, g
medium of exceptional advantages.
1t has rapidly increasing circulation
among the classes Of people who want
good things and are willing to pay fol
them.

THE STOLEN DYNAMITE
London OmcIals Fear that 1t is Stored
that City.


that City.
LONDON, March 30.-The police here
have been ordered to watch Anarchists
who arrive b. I'm the Continent. In
the last thrr 200 of them are said
to have come 49, rom Paris and Zurich.
Their presence has been noticed at the
Socialists meetings on Sunday nights,
and the attention of Home Secretary
Matthews was called to the fact.
1t is apprehended that many of the 800
dynamite cartridges stolen from the
Soisp-Sous- Etiolles quarry in February
have been brought over and stored here
for future use. Consequently the strin-
gent regulations made after the attempt
to blow up the Parliamentary buildings
have been revived. and the Custom
House officials have been ordered to en-
force them without exception or modifl-
cation. All baggage will be examined,
and immense inconvenience will result
for all tourists in Europe this spring and
summer.
Several Paris detectives have arrived
here, it is said, with proof Of the CO.
operation of the Paris and London
Anarchists. The Socialists here deny
that they know more than the general
public about the outrages, and say that
no refugees have arrived from the Cont
nent. They do not countenance the
methods of the Paris dynamiters.

it necessary to make push for more Gus
tom, but this spring have to announce
new departure. I have moved in the new
building adjoining, recently erected by
Messrs Brown and Parsons. My new par
lor is far superior to the old one in all re.
spects. Furthermore I have arranged
with Mr. Louis I. Storm to be my assis-
tant for the future. Mr. Storm has been
in business as Merchant Tailor in our city
for the past three years. Judging from
what have seen of him and his work for
the past year, will say that he is prac-
teal tailor Of ripe experience from the
needle up. Those who have had garments
made by Mr. Storm will bear me out in
this statement. He is a tailor of refined
taste and well qualified to satisfy the
wants of the younger and stylish custom
ers. Mr. Storms friends and patrons will
find that in his new quarters he can sup
ply their wants far more satisfactorily
than ever before, for we have a choice as
sorted stock Of Spring and Summer
Woolens on our counters to select from.
In the future as in the past, I shall look
after the welfare of my old friends and
customers. With many thanks to them
for the steadfast patronage they have
given me in the past, remain

THE RUsE WON'T WORK.

Chinese British Subjects Not Entitled to
Admission to the United States.
OTTAWA, Ont, March 30.-A Cabinet
Minister states that the taking out of
naturalization papers by the Chinese in
Canada for the purpose of securing ad-
mission into the United States as British
subjects will avail them nothing.
The Chinese who come from Hong Kong
and are British subjects are operated
against by the Act of Exclusion, the
same as Cinnamon from other parts of
China. So this ruse of the Chinese in
Canada will not succeed. A Chinaman
is a Chinaman whether he is a British
subject or not.
