no intention of visiting his constituents

The full name of the fiend who threw
two bombs into the midst of a crowded
theater in Barcelona Tuesday night, is
Maurice Saldini. He was a marble.
worker on strike. and evidently an Ital-
ian. 1t is said that he confessed tie
atrocious deed. Why the wretch under
took in this fiendish manner to compass
the death OF innocent men and women
against whom he could possibly have no
cause OF grievance, is something that
cannot be accounted for. The desire to
vent his malice must have had its origin
from vindictive and homicidal spirit,
which imbued him with fierce deter
mination to wresk vengeance upon socie-
ty at any cost. The Malay who runs
amuck through the street is lunatic
seized with sudden mania to kill. But
this wretch had method in his homicidal
madness. He prepared his horrible act
with calm deliberation, and cool calcu-
lation entered into the execution of his
devilish deed. The mere furnishing of
such wretch by the forfeiting of his
worthless life is no adequate penalty for
the destruction of 80 many valuable
lives. There is no expiation known to
the law that can serve as an example to
others Of his nature, and society stands
sghast at its impotency to make the
punishment fit the crime in such cases.
There is but one way to protect society
against these dynamite fends, and that
is to make it impossible for them to pro-
cure the terrible compound. This is
within possible reach of governments,
and it should be made the subject OF
immediate consideration OF the law
making powers.

Smallest Birds in the World,

Two OF the smallest birds in the
world, and the only two known to be
in captivity, have been attracting a
great deal of attention in Broadway
window, says the New York Herald.
They are known as the pajara mosca,
or "hy-eaters," and were brought to
this country from Cuba by Senior
Pubillones He controls the circus
privileges of the island, and is famil-
iarly known as "Little Barnum.n
The birds are about one third
smaller than the hummin-b birds OF this
country, to which family they belong.
Being so diminurive and flying with
remarkable swiftness it is almost i'm
possible to catch them. and it was
only by an accident that these speci.
mems were captured. A laborer dis
covered the nest while the birds were
fiedglings, and he placed bottomless
cage over the nest, and kept it there
until the birds were strong enough t.
fly.
They are fed on honey diluted with
water, and in order to reach this the
little creatures keep themselves sta.
tionary in the air by the lightning
like motions of their wings and
plunge their long narrow bills re-
peatedly into the vessels. An offer
OF $50 for the pair has been refused.

Mutual Secrecy About the Family Dia.
monds In q New York Home.
There is young and handsome
couple in New York City whose names
! are constantly in the society columns
OF the newspapers They are extrav-
agant beyond their means and they
are both wealthy by Inheritance They
give entertainments and dinners, and
keep stable tit for chase.
One day, two years ago, John
Drucker, diamond broker, was visited
by the husband, who explained the
object of his call by producing his
wife's diamond necklace, with a re-
quest that the real stones be pur-
chased for 81, 900 and limitations SUBJ
stituted. No one, he said, would ever
be the wiser; his position and wealth
would Danish the suspicion of fraud,
and he was temporarily money
starved.
The dealer asked day to consider,
retaining the necklace. In the in.
te. val he laid the case before the
wifes mother, a wealthy and indulg-
ent woman, and asked her advice ON
ouO A0VOCts C4C az OuCC kdvc HIN
$4,000, telling him to hand the
amount to the husband, giving him
at the same time the real stones for
the limitations. This course was &C
coriingly followed, and the young hus-
band "blew the money in" with
royal grace.
Six months afterward the wife
called upon my friend, the diamond
dealer, and, like a female Antony,
asked for the loan of his ears Her
proposition was the sale of the dia-
monds in her necklace for 81, 500, and
their substitution by false stones. She
was little 'short," and needed ready
money.
A days time was taken to consider
this matter, and visit was paid as
before to the mother. The old lady
furnished the money, which was paid
TO the wife, and the necklace returned
ostensibly Tiled with spurious stones
! The wife still wears that necklace
to reception and theater, and the pair
have each dead secret unknown to
the world and to each other. The
point Of it is imitation diamonds

You know. of course, that there is an

extract it profltably. In the rear of my
factory constructed one-story Cir

outside of the room, the coils grad

this pipe were lined with rather stiff

Can OdOrs Cause Deafness,

Everyone does not know that aro-
matte salts and very strong, pungent
odors are injurious to the nerves of
smell, and often produce serious, if
not incurable, difficulties
1t is well understood that certain
scents start the action of the secre-
tory glands of the nose and throat,
and often the eyes fill up with tears.
Frequent indulgence in the use of such
perfumes will soon Oyertax the secre-
tory organs and weaken them. Some
day the person observes that the hear
ing is less acute than usual. and the
sense OF smell seems defective.
This is, OF course accredited to a
cold. and but little is thought of it.
After time, the entire head becomes
affected, hearing and smell are almost,
If not altogether, lacking, and there
are thloat and lung complications
which are likely to end in chronic, if
not fatal, illness.
1t has taken the medical world a
great many years to discover that loss
of hearing is almost invariably caused
by some disease of the throat or nose,
or both.
1t is said that the use of smelling
salts is one of the most prolific causes
of deafness, operating by weakening
the olfactory nerves, and through
them the auditory system. All strong
or pungent odors should be avoided as
far as possible, especially those which
act upon the secretory process, and as
the popular expression goes, make
the nose rum"
