CARNoT AssAssINATED.

The assassination OF President Carnot
at Lyons yesterday afternoon will send
q shock throughout the civilized world.
There was absolutely nothing in the
personal character of M. Oarnot to in
vite violence. He was q remarkably
well poised man. and of just the timber
to hold in check an exctable people like
the French. The political stability in
France has been greatly threatened of
late, the present ministry having been
In office only couple of weeks, and be.
ing composed of material so new to pub
lie life that few persons outside Of
France knew anything about them.
The murder OF Csrnot will unquestion-
ably have a tendency to disturb the
entente cordidle between France and Rus
STA, and to shake the public confidence
In both countries. NJ. Oarnot seems to
have had premonition that it was
about time for him to retire from public
affairs, as some months ago he an
inounced his purpose not to seek or &C
cept reelection. Carnot was grandson
OF the celebrated organizer of victory"
of the first French revolution and he
possessed many of the merits of bis
illustrious grandfather. The elements
of unrest in France seem to be coming
to head, and no one need be surprised
to see colossal disturbances all over
Europe. This latest strocity may be An
isolated crime but, on the other hand,
1t may be part of widely ramifed con-
spiracy. 1t was only the other day
that Premier Orispi was only saved
from death by bis own activity and
courage, and the assassination OF the
less lucky Carnot may be simply part
of the general plan. The anarchists
all over Europe show signs of great
restlessnesa and universal outbreak of
violence need surprise no one. This
anarchist lightning may strike any
where, from Vienna to Berlin and st.
Petersburg. Carnot will be mourned
all over the world as modest and just
III Ter and true republican.

or other. These fences extending into

positive nuisance, and it ia high time
that such nuisances were abated.
The herald., 1894-06-25
ABATR THIS NUISANCE.

The HERALD's article on the blockaded
thoroughtares in the issue OF Wednes-
day last was read by go cd many
people in the city, and some of them
became interested therein, viii e others
dismissed the case by saying: "Oh, he's
perintendent has done before him, and
this ia the first time the papers have
ever taken hold of it."
The mere fact that other officials have
done this sort OF business without elicit
ing any complaint from either the news
papers or the taxpayers, has nothing to
do with the case. 1t 10 an abuse of
authority that contemplates the taking
away OF public thoroughfsre or any
part thereof. The erection of fences at
the curbstone is an abuue in ITSELF be-
cause the streets belong to the people
at large and not to the superintendent
nor to the building contractors. At the
intersection of Broadway and Third
streets, within less than 200 feet of the
city hall, there is fence projecting
into the street so far as to
leave barely five feet between IL
and the street railway track. With this
obstruction as it is, there is chance for
9 deaf person to meet with serious in
fury between a north-bound vehicle and
O south-bound railway car. II there
was a building in course of erection
there might be some excuse, but as all
operations have been discontinued at
that point for several weeks it appears
that the work OF building should either
be resumed at once or else that fence
should be taken down.
Broadway. as a retail business street,
is going ahead faster than any other
street in the city. Its day travel is not
as large as that OF Main street nor of
Spring street, but its business is increas-
ing as rapidly &c any other portion of
the city and every foot of space that can
be given to vehicles and foot passengers
they should have.
1t will be noticed that this fence is
covered with large posters for theatrical
entertainments, patent medicines and
other matters deemed worthy OF adver-
Using. A frontage OF nearly 200 feet is
devoted to advertising local plscea Of
Amusement that invoke the aid of the
paste brush and the big wooden job
type. AS the Objectionable fences are in
the most crowded portion OF the city, it
is to be inferred that these fences are
source of considerable revenue TO the
bill posters who can afford to pay for
hsviae the public streets obstructe6, 80
long as they can obtain good prices for
advertising their clients.

sun without food or water is rather
wearing.
At 6 O'Clock In the evening they began
to hear shots, and at they reached
DIPS cabin and water. One OF the
women threw herself down full length
IN the long brush grass that grew In the
marsh that bordered the little stream
which flowed pact the cabin. Putting
her face in the water she drank her fill,
while everybody predicted violent i'll
ness for her. Then everyone clamored
for food. The experienced mountain
GERS denied these requests, and lock-
ed up the eata bles, so that all the worm
out people had to eat that night was
little rice. Each one could have eaten
all thsre was on the platter. but Mr..
Dill kept vigorous guard. and the rice
was portioned out with rigorous Justice.
For Dewey there was nothing but re-
buke. He confessed his fault, and
sought to expiate his fault by saying
that he expected to find the bear at
every turn and bring it back in triumph.
If everybody had not been so tired he
would not have got of so easily.
That night every body was too tired to
sleep. They groaned when they laid
down and they groaned when they
arose. The girl who had but twelve
blisters on her feet was given the BOBBY
plize for having the lowest score. Some
of the feet were all blisters. Miss Mer-
ton, one OF the women who made the
trip, wore her shoes out com pletely, and
her feet were bleeding from the sharp
rocks. The others tore up their under
clothing and bound up her shoes. She
looked like an Esquimsu, with an i'm
mense bundle for each foot, aud she
walked with difficulty.
The next morning the crowd that
breakfasted at Dill's cabin ate as though
eating was not only the chief, but the
only aim in life. Such quantities OF
food as they consumed, for there was no
one to make them deprive themselves.
After breakfast they gathered the shoes
that had comprised that weary l5-hour
walk and photographed them--that 10,
what was left OF them. Most OF the foot
gear had been left, bit by bit, on that
slippery trail down Badly.
When the survivors speak about that
journey they usually quote the lines
from Sstan's journey through chaos in
Paradise Lost.
But there were some good results. In
the fret place the quartette of women
esteemed it an honor to have climbed
Badly clear to the top, and were proud
that they had not stopped before reach
ing the sum NIT as numbers had done
before and have since. To chow that
the masculine mind considers pluck and
endurance fascinating, there have been
two marriages since. and the acqusint-
ance in each case was made during this
trip. Most women think camping cos
tune most hideous. 1t does not seem
to have been so in this case, and in at
least two homes there are four OF the
most disreputsble looking shoes that q
tramp would not wear. They are SOU
venirs of romance and trip to Badly.
