WHY it Was Done.

Those on the inside say the turning
down of the mayors nomination of
Dr. Daily to be health commissioner
was due to the Impotence of the nomi-
nee himself, who objected to the pro-
crastination of the committee, which
ultimately meant the confirmation of the
mayors choice. There were a majority
of the members of the council who did
not favor a change at this time and their
votes did the work Mayor Baskin will
probably send in another name.

AAIUSEMENTS.
Edward Harrigan and His Company
In "Old- InXender.v

There was not the attendance at the
theatre last night that the attraction
and performance deserved, although the
house was not so bad after all; but
in the hands of Edward aHrrigan his
own creation of 'Old Lavender" is
worthy of close study as an artistic
characterization of a high order. Per-
haps the general public here knows
little of the habitues of lower New York
and do not realize the fidelity with
which this impersonation-i drawn; per-
haps the locality is too remote for us 70

but it has been truly said that human
nature is the same all the world over,
and whether one has ever been to New
York or any other big river city or not
he cannot fail 10 find in Harrigan'S
creation fundamental principles of
truth. The pathOs of the thing is also
felt throughout. 1t is high art in low

play that Harrigan and his company
have performed the greatest number Of

supposed to have been the now famous
green powder and piric acid, with prus-

cotton, saturated by sulphuric acid.
The bomb is considered to have been
the most deadly missile ever thrown,

The word bomb in the general accept
ance of the word is a misnomer, at least
as far. as the French specimens are
concerned. Formerly the people al
ways associated bomb with a sphere
or cylinder Of cast steel or iron. 1t
was at best a clumsy affair, and not
only awkward to handle but also diff
ficult to conceal. The anarchist fin

affair. To fully understand the &C
ton of these internal machines it is but
necessary to note the great progress
made in the manufacture of explosives.
There were two recognized methods
Of killing by explosives in days gone
by. It was done either by the instanta-
neous expansion Of deadly permanent
gases enveloping and suffocating every
