Cattle Levied On.

Chamberlain, 5. D.. Feb. r. The
county treasurer of Lyman county has
levied on the ~. b. S." cattle for taxes.
The owner of the immense herd was
John B. Smith, who is reported to have
died suddenly in Minneapolis some weeks
ago. The Lyman ccrnty authorities,
however, have no proof of his death,
and there is no record in the probate
court Of that county showing that his
estrte has been probatcd. Parties claim
ing to have held mortgage on the stock
have been running the cattle out of the
country without any process of fore
closure, and the county treasurer finally
came to the conclusion that it was time
for him to act, and accordingly levied on
the balance of the cattle for the taxes
due. This action will probably be fol-
lowed by other c]aims against the estate.
The rumor of Smiths death was ac-
companiel by one apparently as we'll au-
thenticated, that he had left from $2,-
900 to $4,000 in life insurance, besides
the large herd of cattle in question. 1t
is regarded as Il little peculiar that his
heirs have never attempted to settle the
accounts owed by the deceased cattleman.

Paris, Feb. ia young man who
acted from motives Of revenge, exploded
a bomb at 9 o'clock last night in u cafe
beneath the Terminus hotel, which is
situated opposite the st. Lazare railroaI
station. The place was full of people at
the time, band was playing and those
present were enjoying the contentment

dinner. All this was changed in sec
ord.
A man who had dincd in the cafe was
seen to raise his arm and throw some-
thing into the middle of the room. A
ttltific explosion followed, the occupants
Of the room were paralyzed with terror.
No one dared to move for some mo-
nNnts, fearing q repetition of the cx-
plosiOn, but as none came, t!.eir courage
returned. They then investigated into
the damage done, rad they found that
the explosion had done dreadful work.
The cafe was filled with smoke, and ly-
Ing on the floor were a number Of persons
wounded, moaning and bleeding. The
bomb had landed upon table, around
which party had been sitting, and this
article of furniture had been reduced to
spl'nters. The persons grouped at this
table suffered the most. The injured
number fifteen. Nearly all of them were
wounded in the legs Some of them
were grievously hurt and they were re-
moved to chemists shop near by,
where they were cared for.
Meantime, the man responsible for this
cowardly act had not Teen allowed to
escape. As soon as he had thrown the
bomb he ran out of the place and darted
away. The alarm was given by persons
outside who had heard the explosion. and
chase was Mt once given to the fleeing
figure. A numbero f policemen joined in
the chase. The fugitive drew revolver
when he saw his pursucrs were getting
too close and turned and fred several
shots, killing a workman and wounding q
number of other persons. One of the
men struck was policeman, and his
wound is considered fatal The man
was captured when 150 yards from the
cafe. He proved to be an undersized,
pale faced and beardless man of thirty
years. His name is Leon Breton. He
had been employed in the cafe as a
waiter, but had been discharged for mis-
