The municipality of Chicago is in the
throes of the garbage question just at pres
ent. This means that the city has reached
the metropolitan stage of it's growth, and
that from now on it must grapple with
problems that have become long since ia
miliar to the governments of all great
cities, from the time when Babylon was in
its palmy days to the present moment.
Water supply and aqueduct systems make
up the first necessity with which growing
municipalities must fight. After that comes
drainage. After drainage light and transit
have their day. And when all these mat
tiers have been nicely arranged, and the
municipality looks around and finds that II
has no longer a civic back yard into which
to dump its garbage, it calls in the experts
and asks for relief Now the worlds fair
city has long outgrown its garbage-dump-
ing age, and conceives that as a town
claiming a population of 100000 it should
have modern methods of disposing of its
offal. The reduction or cremation process
seemed the best and most reasonable and
experiments were therefore begun along
that line.

The last of these anarchist outrages in
Paris up to the present date Though there
may be another in a few days. was when
the wife-deserting Valiant threw his bomb
in the full house of deputies. His receptacle
was mere tin lunch can, bought for 10
cents. The principle on which he constructed
the machine was exactly that which has
been last described. His explosive was not
dynamite, but Celebrated powder called green
powder" in the Manual of the Complete
Anarchist" The mixture to set 1t off was
picric acid in one bottle and prussiate of
soda in another, Joined by a glass tube with
a cotton wad, which had been stepped in
sulphuric acid to stuff 1t in the middle. The
interior of the bomb was also filled with

You unite two glass vials like homeo-

choked up in the middle with that kind of
cotton which is called ''bibulous," because 1t
soaks up liquids readily. So long as the
machine is carried in such position to keep
center dry, the bomb is harmless When
the anarchist desires to use it. he simply
turns 1t upside down. The hyponitric acid,
eating on the cotton, gradually eats 1t all
away and joins the carbon sulphide. which

her husbands ability. The exigences
of war kept them separated, but she
wrote to him daily, and such letters as
a hero's wife should write. And when
the storm gathered over her husbands
head and the decree was that he should
surrender his command, he found his
best friend, his truest comforter in
his faithful and devoted wife.
Mrs. Mcclellan lives at the Marl-
borough hotel in Broadway, New
York. Her hair is now gray and her
form generous in outline. She is
medium in height and carries herself
with grace and ease. Like all women
inclined to be stout she holds her age
splendidly and her face shows few of
the tell-tale wrinkles. In conversation
her countenance is often lighted with
a sad smile, which gives one good
idea of the sweet-faced girl whom the
West Pointer courted and won before
war had plunged the land into grief
and sorrow.

Street Car Exaction.
To the DAILY LIGHT:

Il " tbC Jail LiNhi'
The extension of the Citizens
street car line to the Sulphur Wells
was great accommodation to the
people, and the double fare was
considered only remuneration for
the enterprise, but there is such a
thing as rubbing it into the public
too strong This line of cars has
reaped a harvest from this extern
sion, and it is time Mr.. Barnard,
who seems to have the say, reduced
the fare to single fare. There is
not a line OF street cars running
in any city of the United
States that EFFORTS a double fare
for such a ride. 1t is to the inter-
est of all street car lines to make
their fare to suburban resorts in
expensive and for the same fare
charged for rides inside the limits.
The charging of an extra fare for
a single mile extension is an eX-
tortion, and no company conducted
on business principles would do it.
This company has received a valu-
able franchise from the people for
nothing and should show some
liberality to the public. Twenty
cents to the Sulphur wells is ex-
tortionate, the travel could be in
creased by making it one fare.

M'CLELLAN'S WIDOW.
An Amiable Woman Who Is Living Quiet
ly In New York City

The widow of Little Mac" as Gen.
George b. Mcclellan was often called
by his soldiers, with whom ne was pop
ular, is less heard of than any of the
widows of the great generals of the
war. 1t is not because she is a recluse,
but owing entirely to the fact that she
is retiring in disposition and shrinks
from publicity.
One cannot see Mrs. Mcclellan, SAYS
a writer in the New York Advertiser
without conjuring up the great scenes
that occurred when her husband had
command of the army of the Potomac.
She was then a young and handsome
woman, full of hope and ambition, and
not at all vain, because many in the
north called her husband the INA
pOleon" of the war. Those who knew
her then agree that she was most at
tractive, and just the woman for a
great commanders wife. In the bloody
battles of the peninsular, when the
confederates, flushed with victory,
were following up their advantages
under Gen. Lee, Mrs. Mcclellan never
wavered in her confidence and faith in

She climbed a stump, sprang up be-
hind him and pointed out the route he
must take.
Nov, you had better stop here"
she said, after they had gone nearly a
mile, "for after you pass that timber
they can see you from the ford. By
this time they may have sent some
soldiers up there, and they will shoot
you if you pass that point"
