Louise Michel, the female An.
archist, says this country is too
oung to indulge in bomb throwing.
Louise, you are up to snuff. This
country is altogether too young and
vigorous to try the bomb throwing
business to any extent. It's just
young enough to string up the fel-
lows who indulge in that kind OF
business, and it has given example
of its ability and vigor in that line.
If necessary it can do so again. =

THE PASSION FOR NEATNESS.
1t Completely Blinded Woman to Mans
Sufferings.


"A woman is a good deal like cat"
said the philosopher in the negligee
shirt. "You can never tell which way
they're going to jump"
"Wherefore?" asked the man in tho
alpaca coat.
II was thinking of an instance that
happened over in the west side awhile
ago. There is a row of houses on a
street up there that are rather close to-
gether. One day man who lives
along in the middle of the row thought
that he would have his house painted
and he straightway went down town
and hired the painters to do the job.
His roof was one of the fancy shingle
affairs and he wanted it painted
red. When the time came to paint the
roof the three men who were working
on the job fixed ladder upon it and
took places on it, one at the peak, one
In the middle and one at the caves
They were painting along, when sud-
denly the ladder gave way and they
were thrown into the air. The man at
the middle had gone down to the caves
and the combined weight of the two
tipped the ladder up and threw the
man at the peak into the air as if he
had been sitting on the business end of
a catapult.
"When the man at the peak went
up he had a bucket of paint in
his hand and he took it. with him.
The other two men dropped to the
ground, but he went away over and
fell against the wall of the next
house. When he was going down the
paint flew out of the bucket and some
of it went on the side of the house near
which he struck. The painters fell
about thirty feet and were pretty badly
hurt. The man who had the fall from
the peak of the roof lay on the ground
terribly injured. His back was broken
and so were his legs. The men were
all groaning, and quite crowd gath
cred around. Somebody sent call fol
an ambulance. Just then the woman
who owned the house on which the
paint was splashed came out. She ran
over TO the man who had his back
broken and said: Are you much hurt
my poor man?'
Hes pretty severely injured, mum,
said a bystander.
"Oh, I'm So sorry" she went on. "I'
there anything can do for the pool
man?" Just then ,she turned and saw
the splotches of red paint on the side o.
the house. why" she screamed
"look at what the loafer has done
He's splashed paint all over my house
/ don't see how men can be so careless
He might have taken little pains e
keep that paint off. Anyway, I'll make
his boss pay for it." And she flouncet
into the house and left the unfortunat,
painters groaning on the ground. -Buf
