His cowardly and murderous act in
throwing a bomb into the Chamber
of Deputies cannot be measured By
its Immediate effect. 1t was casting
defiance into the teeth Of the law
and proclaiming that the anarchists
cry of death to society" was no idle
threat. There is no temporiZing with
such bloodthirsty enemies of society.
There is no safety save in rendering
them harmless. They strike at the
very heart of our civilization and the
instinct of self-preservation demands
their suppression. When they attempt
to put their accursed creed in opera
tion the most drastic measures en-
ployed against them are none too
severe. federation is wasted upon
them and even in this country swift
punishment should be substituted for
the mistaken mercy which pleads for
clemency and grants pardOns.

On Keeping Bre ad.

One hears a great deal of talk
about moist bread, and large num-
Der of housckeepers shut their bread
in alright boxes to keep it moist.
Such barbarOus treatment Of bread
may be etticacious in keeping it moist
but bread from which fresh air is ex-
cluded always has a disagreeable,
clayey flavor, and is unpalatable to
people of cultured tastes, who appre-
ciate the nutty sweetness that is a
prominent characteristic of all good
bread.
The foolish notion of keeping
bread moist had origin in bad cook
cry Most Of the stuff made by
bakers has to be eaten fresh and
moist, or not eaten at all. 1u is so
light and woolly that, if exposed to
the air a few hours, it grows dry and
husky, and is almost as unsavory and
innutritious as chips. A large pro
portion of home made bread is simi-
lar in character, and is ane ted in a
similar manner by exposure TO the
ar. But properly made bread-such
| bread as ought to be in every intelli-
gent home and on every Christian
table three times day-grows
sweeter by exposure to the air. and
is not at its best until two or three
days old. Bread should be kept in a
we I-cOvered box or Jar, but it should
not be wrapped in cloths, and the
box or jar in which it is kept should
have small holes in the top or sides,
through which the fresh air can have
| access AS soon as loaves OF bread
are taken from the oven they should
be exposed freely to pure air, and at
| no time terward should they be :
| cluded from it Make good bread.
put it in Il well-ventilated box after
it is perfectly cool, and it will keep
sufficiently moist 1T least a week. -

THE height of the absurd has bet

The height of the absurd has been
reached in Connecticut city, where
certain Cinnamon have boycotted a
Sunday school because they suspect
one Of their teachers, who is the
wife Of a police sergeant, of having
given testimony as to the where
abouts Of their smoking dens. The
spectacle of these converted pagans"
interdicting the institution which
converted them, because it inter
feres indirectly with their heathenish
vices, is enough to make Confucius
cachinnate in the tomb, and Mencius,
the Celestial philosopher, turn over
and roar with glee in the silence of
the ancestral temple!

TRAVELLING IN TENNESSEE.
rhe Judge Was Guarded CareIuny

Through the Mountains.
s.It was a good many years ago,
,aid the Judge, to the New YORK
Tribnne interviewer: Il was in Ten

rough road along the mountain sac.
when a boy not over il years ola
slouched down into the road. A rifle
was slung over his shoulder IN Such
way that it could be swung into IN
slant use. He made no attempt to
get out of my way, and Twas obliged
to pull up my horse.

ENGINEERS are as prone to color
blindness as the rest of humanity,

panies is conducting number of ex-
periments with a view to abolishng
colored signals altogether. The

THE anarchists of Europe seem at
present quite as much in danger from
their bombs as are the monuments
and people against whom their ter
rors are directed. The villain who
tried to destroy the beautiful Church
Of the Madeleine in Paris was blown
up BY his own bomb, when 1t was
struck by door which swung hack
after he had pushed it open. That
door will certainly become famous in
the legends Of the church, as time
rolls on. Only the other day Bourdin,
the anarchist, was killed by the bomb
with which e was about to destroy
Greenwich Observatory. The enc
mics Of society will not be encour-
aged b. these accidents.

THERE must be some reason for
the increase Of lawle>sness in this
country and most people viii not
seek far to find it. There is IA grow
ing contempt for the forms and the
authority of law that is only too sig
niticant. 1t does not mean that the
people are lacking in respect for the
law. but that they are sick and tired
of its maladministratiOn. The men
why lynch asSaSSins are in the wrong.
OF course, but they are not without
excuse; the c tizens who tear no the
tracks of marau1ing railroad COM
panies rather than invoke the aid OF
the courts are also just ded to some
extent. The lynchers know that the
assassin, If left TO the law, will evade
justice for months or years and may
escape it altogether. As for fighting
a railroad corporation in the courts
no man Of sense dreams of such a
thing nowadays All the tricks and
devices that can be invented by high
Salar ed lawyers are against the citi-
zen, and the interminab'e delays and
extravagant cost Of liti-ati0n can be
borne only by a wealthy corporation.
Justice, or that which is now called
justice, IS in most cases at the dis
po-al OF the wrongdoer. The victim
is forced out OF court by technical
titles, the delays OF the law or the
sheer weight OF money. That is why
lawiessness is spreading. Men have
no reverence lOr the law which pro
tects only the lawb-cakerS

AT Seattle, recently, the Oregon
Improvement Company wanted forty
men, at So a day, to repair wash
out. The superintendent picked a
number of men about the City Mis-
sion and other charitable institu-
tions, and they agreed to be at the
depot in time to go on the train.
When train-time came he found only
seven men on hand out Of his forty
unemployed" ana they proved SO
worthless that they were discharged
after day or two. And this while
thousands of men are roaming the

Living Lanterns.

Away down in the dark depth OF
the ocean there are living lanterns
that are borne about to light up the
darkness A queer fish called the
'midshipmite" carries the brightest
and more striking of all these sea
torches. Along its back, under il,
and at the base of its fins there are
small disks that glow with a clear,
phosphorescent light like rows Of
shining buttons on the young middy's
uniform. In this way it gets Its
name, midshipmite by which young
sailors in the navy are often called.
These disks are exactly like small
bulls eye lanterns with regular lenses
and rehectors. The lenses gather
the rays and redectors throw them
out again. There is layer Of phos.
phoresent cells between the two, and
the entire effect is as perfect as If
made by some skilful optician.
Many other fish have ''refectors, "
many have s1enses," but the mid
shipmite is the only kind that has
such splendid specimens OF both.
The fish is 81 constructed that when
it is frightened by some devouring
sea monster it can close itslenses and
hide itself in the darkness. 1t can
turn its lantern off and on at will,
and then it is always "hlledh and
ready when wanted.
Another marine animal has lum
inous bulb that hangs from its chin,
and thus throws the light before 1t
to warn it Of the approach OF ene-
m es. Still another upholds big
light from the extremity of the dor
sal fin. Others again have constant
supplies of a luminous oil that runs
down theirs des from the fms, making
a bright and constant light all
around.
Most of the jelly fish are phospores-
cent These live far down on the
very floor of the ocean. where it is al
ways dark and gloomy. The dwell
ers In these watery depths are pro-
vided with lights of their own shin
ing bodies and fins, which illumine
their homes with strange, though
no doubt, cheerful. glare

THERE is trouble ahead for til

THERE is trouble ahead for the
musical critics. Don Fernando Diaz
de Mendoza, a granlee Of Spain, is
about to adopt the stage as profes-
sion. Don Fernando ETC., is not only
as blue blooded as a dog-show cham
pion, but he is extremely sensitive to
criticism. He shoots with both hands
and upon the slightest provOcation.
A hint that he fatted on high G or
that he parted company with the key
at any time during the performance
of an opera would be sufficient TO
send Don Fernando around the news
paper offices with pair of s,x-shoot-
ers and belt full of cartridges. 1t
is somewhat reaSSuring tU know
however, that he is not a particular
ly accurate marksman, having shot
at his antagonist in his latest duel
twenty-five times without scoring a
hit. Unless he improves in this re-
spect he could not hope to meet the
American critics on equal terms.
Most of these gentlemen delight in
feats Of brCil and battle, and if Don
Fernando were to 60 blazing awav a
dozen Of times without hitting his
man he would find himself Slated
over the head with "Hullah's History
of Modern Music" or the libretto of
the Gotterdaemmerung, either of
which would he likely to produce i'm
mediately fatal results. He will have

fore he can hope to intimidate the
independent press of this giant young

THE whale fishery was at one time
an enormous industry in the United
States. 1t reached its height in
1854, when 602 ships and barks,
twenty eight brigs and thirty-eight
schooners, with a total tonnage of
2O8, 399, were engaged in it. BY 1876
the feet had dwindled dow n to 100
vessels, and it is doubtful if fifty are
now at sea. The introduction Of
kerosene and the increasing scarcity
of whales seem to be the causes Of
this decline. Some remarkable vOy-
ages were made in the old days. The
Pioneer, Of New London, sailed in
June, 1864, for Davis Strait and
Hudson's Bay. returning in Septem-
ber, 1865, with 1891 barrels Of oil
and p, $50 pounds of bone, valued at
$3.50, 900. In 1847, the Envoy, of
New Bedford, was sold TO be broken
up, but her purchaser ret1tted her
and she made voyage worth 1882,
$50. On the other hand vessel
made five years voyage, and on her
return the captains lay was only S85.
But, as the Nantucket captain, whose
vessel returned from three years
voyage as clean as she went out, re-
marked: "She amt got bar'l O. lie,
but she's had a mighty fine sail"

THE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.

At tho regular meeting of the Hor-
ticultural Society Friday April Is,
there were reports from different sec
lions of the county on the condition OF
fruit buds. These reports were al
favorable. j. w. johnson brought in
a number of apple branches. r. 8
Moore exhibited branches from Red
Astrachan, Early Harvest, Maiden's
Blush, Jonathan, Ben Davis, Wine
sap, Rome Beauty, Jeneton, Mo. Pip
in and Mother apple. Wild Goose
German Prune, Robinson, Shropshire
Damson and some wild plums. Gov
ernor Wood, Early Richmond and
English Morrelli cherries. Gooseber-
ries and currants. A committee was
appointed to thoroughly examine the
buds on these branches and report
condition. The committee reported
that while they found some buds that
had been killed and others injured by
the late freeze, one half or less of the
buds that were sound and healthy
were sufficient for full crop.
There was larger attendance than
usual at the meeting. A free and full
expression upon the present prospect
for fruit crop was very flattering,
except that the peach crop in this 10
calify will he q total failura The
strawberry and raspberry crop will
be light.
In view OF the reported failure of
the fruit crop in Missouri, Illinois,
Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania and the
East and South, it will pay here
where we have crop in sight, to use
every precaution to save it, as prices
are bound to he high. "Let us spray"
and save all the fruit we can.

THE BOOK OF THE FAIR.

At the risk of becoming wearisome
THE REGISTER again calls the atten-
ton of its readers to 1.-THE Book OF
The Fair.r The eighth number OF
this book is now before us, and il
more than maintains the high stand
ard of those which have gone before.
This one number has 126 illustrations,
photographs of the most interesting
and noteworthy features of the great
Exposition reproduced in the finest
style, making the book a perfect treas
ury of art The subjects of these pic
lures are particularly well chosen,
among them, for example, being a
number of the Washington relics, a
pipe once owned by Miles Standish,
a fac simile of the original manuscript
of the "Star Spangled Banner" fac
simiIe of John Alden's family record,
and so on thorough long list.
But the most valuable and by no
means the least attractive part of this
work is the reading matter which is
so graphic that it may be said to illus
trate the pictures rather than to be il.
Illustrated by them All the notable
exhibits and every important detail
of the greatest show the world has
ever seen, are taken up, described
and commented upon with such clear
ness and with such fullness of knowl-
edge that the reader feels as if he
were looking upon it all with his own
eyes.
The Book of The Fair is certainly
the book of the Fair and abundantly
deserves the enormous sale we are
told it is having. Orders for it should
be addressed to The Bancroft Com
pany, Chicago.
