IN PARIS.

The recent experience Of Paris with
an anarchist bomb thrower, has reused
that city into condition of ferment
such as it seldom has seen. Fears of an
organized gang of dynamite laden con.
spirators cause the police no little
uneasiness, and immediate steps
are being taken to prevent
a sudden surprise of the city. The true
anarchist never flights fair" Courage
is an unknown and despised quantity so
far as he is concerned. He turks in by
paths or smothers himself in surging
crowd and waits for the approach of his
intended victim, and when the latter
puts in an appearance he does not chal-
lenge him to mortal combat nor offer to
take the case to a court of law. He
throws bomb at his enemy and makes
his way to a place Of safety as soon as
possible. He loaths and despises the
law because the law desires to make
him respectable and useful member of
society. He yields allegiance to nothing
but the cardinal principle Of fear.
He is only safe and tolerable
when his head and body are q greater
distance apart than nature intended.
The safety OF Paris lies in careful
reading of American treatment of an
archists during the past decade and
application of the same to her own
frowzy-headed disturbers of the peace.
The American plan never fails to secure
prompt results.

ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON recently
alluded to Mary. Queen of Scots, as a
"fellow," and now every true Scots
man is tuning up his pibrcch prepara-
tcry to marching upon and sacking Mr.
Stevenson's literary castle. 1t does not
occur to them that Mr. Stevenson has
reached a round on the ladder of au-
ihorship where he cannot commit what
solecisms he choose with perfect i'm
punity.

Took His Lunch.

Mr.. Gray, who works with the
Hawaiian Electric Light Co, had
a curious experience with a wan
dering dog yesterday morning. Mr..
Gray is at present working at the
new fish market on the esplanade.
As is his wont, he brings with him
his lunch basket every morning
and puts it in a secure place
under the shed. While busily
engaged working yesterday
morning some one directed his
attention to a small dog en-
gagged in eating a piece of pie.
Mr.. Gray looked at it and to his
surprise saw it was his pie. He
looked for his lunch basket, but it
was not where he put it. Some ma
tive boys some distance away in
formed him that the dog had left
his empty basket where they were.
Mr.. Gray went home to his lunch
and will hereafter keep an eye on
the dog.
