A Plot DISCLOSED by "a Prisoner to Bio"
Up a building.


LONG ISLAND CITY. April IL. Otto
Eckhold, aged 43 years, a prisoner in the
Queens county Jail, has disclosed to the
authorities plot to destroy the whiting
works of T.. V. Crandsll, on Grand ave
nue., Maspeth.
Upon information thus furnished, Con-
stable George Koch Of Newton found three
dynamite bombs under the stable in the
rear Of the whiting works, which Eckhold
says were made by Henry Rupperent,
leader Of a band Of anarchists who had for
some time held their meetings in the In
ternational hotel, Maspcth.
Eckhold was formerly proprietor OF this
hostelry and says he also belonged to the
band and withdrew sooner than obey his
fellow anarchists. lie claims that the
charge of arson against him is made to get
him out Of the way.
The authorities expect to make several
arrests upon the information furnished.
Eckhold says the bombs were made OF
pieces of iron pipe and were capped and
fused ready TO be fired. About 40 hands
are employed in the within, works.
The works were burned two years ago,
and Eckhold is In Jail now charged with
setting them on fire and also with having
set fire TO a cooperage works situated next
to the hotel last September.
1t is believed that Eckhold confessed
with the hope of saving himself from in
dictment, the grand jury being now in ses'
sion.

GOVERNMENT ACTION.
Taken by Germany to Prevent the Spread
of Cholera.


BERLIN, April 12-According 10 a MEM
ber of the imperial sanitary council the
German government has established a
central station for all emigrants from
Russia and Austria as we'll rs Germany at
Ruhleben, near Spandau, as preven-
tion of introducing cholera into the United
States from Germany. The German steam
ship lines have offices there and are bound
TO receive as passengers only such emf
grants whSare passed by the goverSnent
physicians as perfectly sound and healtny.
TIE member of the imperial health
o>uncil said: I'VE have been informed OF
late that tSe agents OF several foreign
steamship lines are working the different
railways from Russia, Scandinavia and
the eastern provinces Of Prussia and
Austria, touching the Russian frontier, for
the purpose of persuading immigrants
from these parts TO take through trains to
Berlin, where they would not be bothered
by the investigation of government ply
sicians. Upon their arrival in Berlin
these immigrants are taken in hand by
the agents of the foreign lines who con-
duct them 10 ports which are not under
sanitary control. IL cholera is introduced
into American ports this season, foreign
steamship lines alone are responsible. The
German government does everything in its
power to prevent suspicious cases from

In these departments
we have never been able

little, considering quality

General Grant Remembered.

WASHINGTON, April l2.-Many citizen:
of New York are of the opinion that il
would be fitting tribute TO the memory
of General Grant to have the ships par
ticipating in the naval review in the Hud
son river fire a salute over the old hero's
grave in Riverside park. Their views have
been communicated In Secretary Herbert
but he finds that it will not be practicable
TO comply with their wishes, as the column
of the fleet does not extend as far up tn,
river as the park. He will, however, have

BROOKLYN, April l2.-It Is generally be
lieved that Mayor Boody will veto the
resolutions granting street railway fran
chises that the board of aldermen gave
away TO the Nassau Railway Electric Rail
way company and the Kings County
Electrical Railway company. This opinion
is based not only on remark Of the
mayor that he was opposed to giving away
valuable city franchises, but also because
the city company had offered to pay $3.50,
600 for the franchises that the favored
company got for nothing.

OVERCOATS.

Gentlemen need to pro-
vide themselves with new
Spring Overcoats. The
cut this Spring is distinc-
tive, and the correct
dresser knows the value
of being in the style. 1t
is worth money to every
business man to dress ac-
cording to the decree of
fashion. 1t can be done
without great cost at our
store, where all the goods
are selected expressly
with the idea of giving
the most value for the
price of any store in New
England.
Our stock of Spring
Overcoats we show with
great satisfaction, well
knowing that the most
fastidious dresser, as well
as the most economical,
will approve the goods,
the style, the workman
ship and the price. In
this matter of Overcoats
prudent buyers need not
be reminded that now is
the time to buy, just when
the merchant begins to
consider ways and means
of reducing his stock and
preparing for his strictly
Summer trade.

Fergus County Sunday School Association

The county Sunday school convention,
called to order Saturday at the Presby-
terrain church, proceeded at once to the or
ganization OF a county Sunday school as
ISOLATION. The officers elected for the en-
suing year were: president and vice presi-
dent, Rev. U. F. Hawk and Rev. j. NJ. Lar
gent; secretary and assistant secretary,
Rev. Geo. Edward and Prof. j. NJ. Par
rent; treasurer, Mrs. Theodore Sloan.
The meetings OF the convention were all
well attended, especially those on Sunday.
The Sunday schools OF Maiden, Beaver
creek, Trout creek and Ubet were repre-
sented by delegates, as well as the Metho-
dist, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic
Sunday schools of Lewistown. Written
reports were received from Philbrook and
Stanford.
The interest that was manifested in this,
the first religious convention OF Fergus
county, is indicated by the fact that OF the
five ladies' and six gentlemen to whom
topics had been assigned for papers or ad-
dresses, all but one responded when their
names were called. Several papers elected
general and spirited discussion.

II there were any inequalities between
the different counties, as there seemed to
he, il was impossible for the board to tell
it from the returns made. Had the board
entered on the work of equalizins between
the counties, it would have beer. necessary
to eIualize some up and the Others down.

Money, And How to Get It.

There is no word in the English language
more often used and universally admired
than money. In fact, it il considered the
thing altogether desired, and men to OBJ
tain it will go through all kinds of toll and
hardships imaginable.
They will even purchase their supplies
sometimes elsewher than at DeWitt's.
Everybody is after money and the great
desire to gain it hastily often ends in a to-
tai failure to accomplish the desired end.
About the first question a youth asks when
he gets old enough to think about provid-
ing for the future is, "where can | get the
greatest value for the least money" With
a thousand voices as if one, the answer is
at DeWitt's, first, last and all the time, If
you want to get money, il you want to get
rich. One is by industry and economy,
and the other is by saving little by little in
your purchases by doing your trading at
Dewitt s instead of elsewhere. Riches ac-
~cummulated by industry and economy and
the iudicious purchase of supplies at where
the greatest value is given for the least
money never detracts from IA mans dig
nifty and self respect, but carry with them
happiness, contentment and a clear con-
science, and leaves no regrets that they
have bought their supplies at DE Wits.
The true secret is make haste slowly, when
you are about to purchase elsewhere con-
suit prices and quality and save money by
buying at DcWitt's.
In getting money it does not make so
much difference as to what kind OF bust
ness a man engages in, for any business will
pay il attended to properly. Hearing is
not seeing, investigate for yourself, where
you can get the greatest value for the
least money, and you will join the ever in
creasing number that do their trading at
DeWitt's. But no man should embark in
any business to which he is not adapted;
but when he does make his selection he
should GO in with a steady and deter
mined purpose to win, and succeed by con-
slant and persistent labor, remembering
that the little by little" that he is saw
ing by making his purchases at DeWitt's,
is the sure way to succeed, and out OF
that little a little should be saved. Re-
Numbering also that it is by what we
save that we get rich and not by la we
make. A man may make a million a year,
but if he spends it all he will be no better
off at the end of the year than he was at
the beginning; while the man who makes
five undred n year and saves ten per
cent of this by doing his trading at De-
Wits and investing it in real estate is
getting rich. The man at twenty-five who
saves fifty dollars a year and invests the
same in real estate is in "a fair way to be
in easy circumstances when he reaches the
age of thirty-five. No man has yet lived
who saved his money and invested it in
real estate, that did not make money
Therefore, the true and only certain way
of getting money is by industry, economy
and trading at De Wits, where the best
values are given for the least money, and
saving and investing the same in real
estate; and the man b follows this rule
is sure to win.

NOTHING FOR COLLECTION.
County Assessors Get No Commission on the

An opinion issued yesterday from the Of
flee of the attorney general says that county
assessors are not entitled to any compen-
sation for the collection OF the poor tax OF
So per able bodied man. The commission
heretofore allowed was 10 per cent. The
opinion says the Zee bill' OF 1891 was
mandatory in providing that llfees,c costs,
percentages, etc, are received for the sole
use of the county treasures as public
moneys; that allcounty officers are granted
an ample and adequate salary for every
duty performed; tina the law required
them to pay into the county treasures all
fees, ETC., collected, and that the intent OF
the act was to limit the maximum annual
compensation from every source; therefore
assessors cannot claim n fee under the law.
