AFTER TIE ANARCHISTS.

The natiGas Of Europe are steadily
pursuing anarchy in all its violent
forms Communications have passed
between the various governments with
"A view TO the exercise of local police
surveillance over all the prominent
apostles of anarchy known to be In
London, Paris, Berlin, Geneva and
elsewhere The sudden disappearance
of any Of these would-be destroyers Of
society will be followed by kilograms
10 all the police superintendents of all
the great capitals. II is even said that
our government at Washington has
been approached 10y the French Am
bassador with q similar object in view
II is hard 10 see how the Federal Gov
ornment can Join in this league, be
cause, except its small body of secret
service men, il has no means of its own
Tor keeping track Of such criminals
But useful object will Ice served if the
European governments will give us am
pie warning Of the intention Of any of
these professional Anarchists to land
upon our shores I'm that case we shall
be delighted TO return them 10 their
port of embarkation with all speed.

cap'n was giving orders TO clear away the
boats.
Twas none too soon. The Ice on one
side had crowded ms so close we couldn'
lower tho boats there. We rushed To the
other side, where there were still few fest
OF space.
In three whale boats we dropped into the
black waters, Ben with the rest, and pulled
for life, ahead OF the ship, into the mar

II was tough To leave our stanch old ship

and had brought us safely round many q

baby when he looked back at her.
We leaned on our oars 10 take one last
look together, when Ben gave a most un-
earthly yelp, and but for my hold on his
chain would have leaped overheard
Following the direction OF his eyes, We
looked 70 the top OF the mizzenmAst and
saw the cat, forgotten In our excitement,
grimly clinging there.
Ben took his eyes from her long enough
10 look into my face and AJAX me in short,
quick barks TO go and help her. but had
To shake my head. He leaped To the
cap'n's side with the same question and
then % some Of the sailors. When he
found nothing could be done, he stood
gazing at his old friend Tabby with ac-
tual tears rolling down his face and gave
utterance 20 one prolonged howl till the
end came.
Just as we pulled'through well out be-
yond the narrow passage Of the bergs our
ship slipped into the great arms waiting
for her, and they closed on her like hugo
jaws. / hope / may never again suffer
the anguish did then, as / heard her
moan like "A human creature In pain. The
cat gave one last uncanny shrek that cur
died the blood In the veins, and then we
saw her no more.
In less than no time the monster bcrgs
had ground our ship into actual sawdust
never saw such complete destruction
not a mast, not plank escaped.
Sometimes we rowed over the water for
hours. Again we had 10 pull our boats
up onto great cakes of ice and travel afoot,
pushing the boats ahead OF us. The cold
was intense. Our food got pretty low.
But ON the third day we made out In the
dim light a whaler not far of, and we
managed 70 attract attention, and they
bore down on US and took US aboard more
dead than alive.
Poor little Ben never ate mouthful OF
victuals after the death of old Tabby.
When we were rowing, he lay in the bow
Of the cap'n's boat, with his head under
his paws and tookno notice Of anything
that passed When we were footing IL
over the ice, had TO pull him along much
Of the way by main force. His heart
seemed 10 be broken.
The day after our rescue he crawled

feet. In five minutes he was dead.

Representative Cole and the boilers of

and the seal Of condemnation put upon

slips 10y the House of Representatives,

Those men of the Second Ward and
in fact, Of the city who have stood uI
10 the rack, spurning beer and brides,

that the Democracy of the State has
not ignored their claims and the man
for whom they worked has, although
somewhat tardily, been yindicatcd
Ex-Rcprescntatiyc Cole, who was un-
seated yesterday, admits the use of
the slips in the Second Ward He
claims, however, that he never
connivcd at their use, but still while
he could have insisted upon their re-

BEN THE FOX.

While on whaling voyage two or three
pears ago i caught "A young arctic fox
while ashore on one OF the islands in Be
ring sea somewhere about 90 or 90 degrees
north latitude.
He was about feet long and pure
white. His fur was long and soft and
fine as silk.
But his tail was the crowning glory-is
inches long bushy and white as snow.
We had great time settling on a name
for him, but after changing it a dozen
times we decided TO call him Benjamin
Harrison TO please the cap'n, who was born
In the same town with the owner Of that
Ilustrious cognomen.
After few weeks we unclaimed tho lit
tie rascal, and Ben had full swing OF the
cabin and deck, where he followed me
about like house dog. He and the ships
cat grew TO be famous friends, though she
hated him like poison at first
We had made some good hauls on that
trip and our hold was well stored with
oil and bone, but the cap'n was for pulling
In one more whale before we put about
for home. We had met acres Of floating
ice but no icebergs.
While we were hanging around In Be
ring strait for a last big fellow the weather,
which had been middling fair, changed
and for two days blew great guns.
AT the close Of the second day 10 came
on TO snow, and IL got so thick we could
not see hands breadth before us
No one slept that night. Above the
noise Of the wind we suddenly began 20
hear another gruaning, creaking sound,
which cap'n and feared meant icebergs.
Toward morning the storm quieted
down some, but the roar was still 50 great
that we couldn't hear the cap'n's orders
two feet away There was no sign Of
light along the horizon until two bells In
the afternoon watch o'clock. Then the
storm lifted suddenly.
Cap'n and / had gone below for mess,
when we heard the man at the wheel
shout, "Iccbergs nhoyl" and we weren't
slow in scrambling up the hatchway and
rushing forward
There they were, two of 'em, not half a
mile ahead, higher than our good old ship
herself, and together they must have been
mile wide There was no steering away
from 'eIn nor around EN-. Our only hope
was the narrow space between the two.
Forty minutes after they hove In sight
they were upon us. We had given up all
hope Of saving the ship, for the great
mountains had driftcd and drawn together
till there wasn't 80 feet between 'cm.
Most Of Us hurried below 20 get together
few clothes, and among other things
grabbed "A chain and fastened IL around
Bcn's neck, for no was close to my heels,

an eighthour session ia debating the pro-
posed senate duty OF 20 cents a ton on iron

TO taunt the Democrats with Inconsistency
and with being false TO their pledges 20

they obtained control Of the government.
Some very sharp encounters occurred
The effort TO have iron ore placed on the
free list was voted down.
The early part Of the proceedings In the
house was devoted TO a legal discussion
concerning sn amendment declsI ing that
the statute which directs the sergeant at
arms to make deductions from the sala-
ries Of mem bers on account OF absencs had
been repealed. The chairman ruled the
amendment out of order, but was In turn
overruled by the house on an appeal.
The amendment was then adopted. The
Democrats declared that q separate yea
and nay vote on the amendment would be
demanded In the house later
