NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE SUMS Lon.
don cable says: 1t is now London,s
turn to be put under the terror of dyna-
mite fiends. A gigantic plot is on the
eve OF execution and the utmost energy
OF the government is being exerted to
avert the catastrophe. The police know
That the Anarchists have planned a
irlghtiul revenge for the extradltion of
their comrade, Francois, but thev do
not know just where the blow is to fall.
The result is that Westminster. Down
ing street law courts and other public
buildings are guarded day and night bv
armed detectives. The explosion was ex-
pected to take place last night. Three
hundred men from Scotland ward
guarded the parliament buildings
alone. A detective stood in front Of
every door, every window and at eyerv
corner and angle. The residences OF the
detectives who arrested Francois. the
magistrates who heard the case, and the
court and Jail where he was confined
were similarly projected. The fact that
nothing happened does not prove that
the alarm was baseless. Information
which the agents of Scotland ward
gained few days ago among Anarchists
IS said to be very authentic. The plot
ters have an ample supply of DYNAMITE
ana iack only detonator or
exploding apparatus. This their con-
freres in Paris have agreed to supply.
Inc strictest watch has been maintained
ever since at Dover, Folkestone and
other channel ports to detect the device
in transit, If possible. 1t has not been
discovered and the detectives are pre-
suma6iy. ignorant whether it has vet
peen delivered. Several Anarchists in
London are under suspicion, but as the
location OF the discriminating explosive is
unknown, no arrests have been made.
As soon as the investigation has pro-
greesed step further, it ia said to be
the plan to throw ont drag net sud-
denly and arrest many OF the suspected
dynamiters in London. Meantime the
policy OF maintaining special guard
continued. -

HARVESTED ITEMS.

Only nine per cent of all operations in

Perfumed oil, sprinkled in library

out of the mud, into which they have
crawled to hibernate.
By far the greater part Of the accidents

1t is said that there are now 400 occu-
pations open to women, whose oppor-
tunities in life arc constantly widening
Those not open to them are the exception,
rather than the rule.
There are now 1870 women in the Berlin
telephone exchanges. 1t has been decided
to employ only women in the future as
their voices are much more audible than
mems, owing to the higher pitch.
1t is interesting to learn that in the
ninth century European kings wore
wooden shoes. In those days, in fact, q
monarch did not possess one-half the
creature comforts and luxuries that the
humblest peasant con now obtain.

THE ISLAND IN TIE SEA.

Once small and lonely island,
Far from my sister shore, ."
Nestled on the oceans bosom
Lulled by its unceasing roar.
Flowers bright and greenest verdure
Clad that island to the strand,
Where the ripping, dancing wavelets,
Chased each other on the sand.
Once bird, storm tossed and weary,
Seeking for a place of rest,
Spied this island of the ocean
And dropped painting on its breast.
Then between them grew a friendship
Strange as any ever heard,
For the bird it loved the island.
And the island loved the bird.
Deep beneath the waves and sunlight
Burned the earth's undying fire,
Raging fierce and all resistless,
Rolled it forth in rending ire.
Shuddering, trembling, then the island
Sank into watery grave,
While the bird with draggled pinion
Floated lifeless on the wave.

Those who try Swamp-Root have generally
first employed the family physician, or used all
the prescriptions within their reach without
benefit. AS a last resort, when their case has
become chronic, the symptoms complicated and
their constitution run down, then they take
this remedy, and it is just such cases and cures
as the one above that have made Swamp-Root
famous and given it worldwide reputation.

The New hand.

1t is gratifying to know that the brass
band will be revived stronger than ever.
1t has been taken hold of with energy,
and the result is not in the least doubt
full. This city has the musical talent,
and with sufficient encouragement the
band will not only be credit to Sank
Centre, but no insignificant factor in
attracting outside attention-advertis-
ing the community along the line of en-
terprise.
The new band will consist of not less
than twenty-five members, including
many ofour prominent and most reliable
business men. A new tuba, trombone
and flute have been order ed at at cost of
SIPS, and the equipment will then be
complete. The assembly room in the
city hall has been secured for the regular
meetings, and vigorous policy of prac-
tice will be at once inaugurated.
But the boys need material encourage
nent. It is a great burden they have
undertaken, and our citizens should meet
them half way. They ought to have
such pecuniary assistance4s will relieve
them from the necessity of struggling
along under load of debt which will
tax all their energies. The city council
could not do better than to recognize
their services in this direction. In what
ever way seems best, fund should be
raised to enable them to staff in on a
good and independent footing.
