DESERVED FATE.
A London Anarchist Meets Death While
Seeking Destruction of Others

Seeking Destruction of Others
LONDON, Feb 17.-Paul Bourdin, a
French anarchist, who is thought by
the police to have been on his way to
blow up Greenwich observatory, was
blown to death by his own bomb in
Greenwich park last night.
The park keeper heard the report of
the explosion, which came from the
direction of the observatory, and found
a man kneeling on the ground covered
with blood. His hand and wrist had
been blown away, his face and body
were covered with wounds and there
was gaping wound in his
stomach. He was only able to say
Take me home" Where his home
was it could not be learned from the
papers in his pockets, and he was there
fore conveyed to the Seaman's hospital,
where he died half an hour later. 1t is
believed that he stumbled and fell Oh
the bomb he was carrying, for there is
no reason to think it was a premature
explosion
The police have found that the man
came from Paris to London in 1883 and
worked here with his brother. a small
master tailor He visited all the an
archist clubs of this city and became
imbued with their opinions and meth
DDS. In 1891 he is said to have gone to
the United States and to have been
employed by ladies' tailor establish
ment in Detroit directed by Hebrew
named Weilgard. According to the
police, after leaving Detroit, he re-
turned to Paris and from there came to
this city. He is said to have been a
trusted organizer of the anarchists.
Bourdin had been watched by the po-
lice for some time past as it was be-
lieved that he was contemplating some
desperate deed. His sister-in-law says
he called upon her yesterday and when
she playfully pushed him he exclaimed
'For Gods sake. don't push me"
From this it is believed he must have
had the explosive in his pocket when
he called upon her.

WORK OF BANDITS.
A Southern Pacific Express Train Wrecked
and Robbed-Dynamite Used.

A Southern Pacific Express Train Wrecked
and Robbed-Dynamite Used.
Los ANGELES, Cal. Feb. IZ-Three
train robbers, two of them believed to
have been Evans and Morrell, the
notorious deperadoes, partly wrecked
q Southern Pacific express train at
Roscoe station at 1 o'clock this morn
ing, injuring the engineer and fireman,
blew open the express car and wounded
the messenger and then carried OF a
large amount of money.
AS the train, which carried many
passengers and an unusually heavy
Wells-Fargo express shipment, neared
the Rosco switch, Engineer Thomas
saw too late that the switch was mis-
placed and vainly tried to stop the
train, but he could not do it and the
engine and two fruit cars of oranges
went into the ditch, the engine turn
ing over and burying the engineer and
fireman. The two fruit cars were a
total wreck.
Three masked men sprung up out OF
the bushes and began fusilade. A few
momento later couple of dynamite
bombs were placed under the express
car, the messenger refusing to open the
door, and the whole side was blown off.
Brakeman Foster, as soon as he heard
the shots, ran to neighboring ranch
house, where he saw light, got team
and drove back to Burbank and gave
the alarm. He cannot tell how much
the robbers got, but it is probable that
they cleaned out the express car as they
had their own way when he left
Engineer Thomas was badly hurt, as
well as the fireman, and Drainsworth,
the company's surgeon here, left on a
light engine for the scene. Foster
could not tell whether any passengers
were hurt, but thought they were only
badly shaken up.
Two posses of deputy sheriffs have
just left for the scene.
The wrecked engine went down the
bank ten feet. Engineer Thomas
jumped but Fireman Masters was PIN
toned between the cab and tender and
died as he was taken out.

able Fate.
BROOKLYN, Feb. 16.-After a long
trial in which the defense has made
every possible endeavor to thwart JUS
tice, Boss John Y. McKane, of Graves
end, was found guilty this morning of
violations of the election laws during
the election last November and next
Monday he will be sentenced. The
penalty is Imprisonment in the states
prison for not less than two nor more
than ten years at the discretion of the
court
McKane is now in the Raymond
street Jail awaiting the sentence which
is to be pronounced upon him on Mon
day morning at 9 o'clock. Only the
clemency to which the jury earnestly
recommended him, stands between the
eX-czar of Gravesend and long term
in prison. In view of this he may re-
ceive something less than the full limit
of the law.
An appeal to the general term and to
the court of appeals stand in the way
of the carrying out of the sentence
whatever it may be. But the lawyers
who have heard the trial feel confident
that these appeals mean merely delay
and not reversal

FRENCH WORKING CHILDREN.

Laws Passed for Their Protection That Do
Not Protect
Already in 1874 law was passed for
the protection of children and girls
who had not attained their majority,
in factories This law remained al
most entirely dead letter The law
of November ., 1892, limited the labor
of children of thirteen to sixteen years
of age to ten hours per day, but did
this necessitate the limitation of their
work during the gathering of roses and
jasmine in the Midi? These flowers are
destined to be used in a manufacturing
industry. to be distilled in order to ex-
tract their essences. Ought, then, their
gathering in to be regarded as agricult-
ural industry?
The above law does not extend to
agriculture, though from the economic
point of view it does not differ from
other industries And why was this
difference made? Because the depu-
ties elected for the most part by rural
populations feared to provoke among
these people a discomfort which they
did not dread on the part of the manu-
featuring population, since, in their de-
PRAYED appetite for regulation, very
many of the workUen had demanded
measures of this kind without well un-
Outstanding their nature, and the en-
ployers seem to be quantities neghgedbles.
After this law came into force, youths
and girls of sixteen to eighteen years
of age could no longer be employed
more than sixty hours per week; girls
above eighteen years and women were
restricted to eleven hours per day. The
women thus remain in the workshop,
while the girls and children were
obliged to go away. And what are
they to do outside? This fastidious
protection of children may have the
most unfortunate results for them.
The cooks and pastry cooks of Paris
have three thousand apprentices, many
of whom are orphans or have no rela-
tions in the French metropolis. The
law compels their employers to give
them one days holiday per week, and,
as the employers have no desire to take
responsibility in the matter, this week
ly holiday becomes day of compul-
sorry vagrancy for these boys.
The law condemns them to idleness.
The legislator has not dreamed of what
this turning out of doors means for the
children or the young woman. On the
day after the PRONUNCIATION Of the law,
one house-that of Lebaudy-d dismissed
forty-four girls employed in breaking
sugar because they were too young.
| NM. Millerand, Baudin and Dumay an
nouced that they would question the
government on this event. but they did

an employer should be compelled to

been improved?-Yves Guyot, in Fort
