Hattie, being born sailor, put her

Others" This Citizen" is probably
interested O in ''pay" than in the
education of the children or the in
terests of the patrons OF the school.
The money is simply being placed
where it belongs and no teacher in
that building knows better than Miss
Eddy that it is a proper adjustment
OF salaries. And, furthermore, Miss
Eddy came here under the impression
that she was employed for the pri-
mary and as Miss Eddy herself said
would rather have had it; no body
can blame her for that. School
teachers are not teaching for glory,
and knowing that the primary paid
more, that simply settles 1t. Now, as

BOMBS IN NEW YORK.
The Front ola Crowded Tenement
House Blown Out,
AFFAIR sHRoUDBD IN MYSTERY,

Undoubtcd Evidence of Deliberate At
tempt to Destroy Life, aud That Mono
Were Killed Is Looked Upon as "a
Miracle.
New YORK Jan. Am attempt TO blow
up with two bombs the crowded tenement
house 81 Avenue ID was made Wednesday
night, and it is a miracle that a catastro-
phe was averted. Pincus Cans had tailor
shop on the first floor of the house. occu-
pying the third floor as residence and on
the second floor henry Davis and family
lived, These families are relatives.
The tailor shop had been locked up for
over month, owing to a lack of business
and the hard times At 10 o'clock there
was a terrific explosion in the house. An
alarm Of fire was turned in by some one
who saw the flames bursting forth, and
the iiremen quickly responded. The whole
front of the house had been blown out by
the explosion which occurred on the first
floor. All the glass in the building was
shattered, and the shock aroused the
neighborhood.
Chief Thomas A. Ahearn, of the fourth
battalion of the fire department, described
the occurrence as follows;
"Wheu we arrived at the house we found
everything In confusion The whole store
front was blown into the street and the
vreukage was aiiame We put out the
fire, made an investigation, and discovered
that the gas meter had exploded but the
explosion was due to some other cause
than combustion, besides which there was
IA strong odor Of kerosene oil in the room.
"On entering the cellar we observed a
trail of oil all the way to the door There
was a lot of keroseuce soaked cotton bat
ting all over the cellar floor, and we came
upon long piece of lead pipe which had
fuse composed of some gauze material
attached that was half burned, indicating
chat it had been lighted and gone out be-
fore reaching the bomb.
1T was about fifteen inches long, two
and one-half inches in diameter, with not
less than three pounds Of powder stuffed
into it. We were very cautious in hand
ling it, and turned it over to our deputy
fire marshal, who later gave it to Fire Mar
shall Mitchell The theory of the fire de-
partment is that the other bomb, which
exploded upstairs, was placed on the little
shelf behind the gas meter, evidently with
the intent Of Disgusting the real cause of
the explosion"
There is a great deal of mystery sur
rounding the matter, and while the police
department is very reticient they are
making a careful investigation.
