TWO M ANARCHISTS.

1t is not generally known, but it is
ertheless a fact, that a conspiracy was
organized for an anarchistic coup at the
dedication of the Worlds Fair Buildings
in 1892. Two women volunteered to con-
vey bombs to the roof of the Liberal Arts
building and to throw them among the
vast crowd assembled for the dedicatory
exercises.
The plot was discovered by Major Nc
5Claughry, chief of police, and upon the
advice of confidential friends, he sum
moned into his presence the three ac-
knowledged leaders of t-heAnarchists in
Chicago, and he told them hat If within
a certain timethey did not provide him
with satisfactory assurance that the con-
templated outrage was orders
would be secretly issued to the police to
shoot them (the three leaders, at sight,
And said Major McClaughry, "the
police will be protected in this extreme
action.
The anarchist went their way, held hur-
ried conferences, and in due time provi-
ded the chief of police with the assur-
ance he demanded. 1T is believed that
this prompt and determined stand saved
Chicago from a ~frightful tragedy hat
would surely a jeopardized the sue
cess of the Worlds Fair; for who would
have come to that exhibition in the face
of so .monstrous a demonstration.
1t is not surprising that this incident
was not exploited at the time, but it is
curious that since the close OF the Worlds
Fair it has not leaked out and been given
a place in the secret history of that great
national enterprise.-ChfcagO Record

MoTHERLY PLANTS.
Some of Them Weave Nests for
Their 0fFaDrf no.

We often express establishment and marvel
at the well constructed and daintiiy woven
birds nests which we find hidden away in the
branches of some shrub or tree. The children
are ever eager to have a peep at the nest and
the wee things or n~estlings within it. Did you
ever think what beautiful nests many
plants weave for their children ? Last Fall,
while following the fashion now in vogue of
making all sorts of pretty novelties from the
silky appendage of the seed of a species of
milk weed l thought what a motherly. loving
plant the milk weed is. The pod is rough out
side, and coarse looking, but how Wonderfully
pretty it is within, with its glossy satin like
lining. What a dainty network of tissue be-
tween the outside and the inside Innings, forni-
ing luxuriant upholstery-a cushioned couch
where the seeds lie and grow.
How ~compactly and orderly they are ar
ranged. We take a pod in our hands and
open it carefully, when 10, and behold! the
seeds, like little birds frightened, unfold their
wings and fly away. The mother plant has
forethought; she knows that it would never do
to have the seeds all stay at home and make
no effort for self-subsistence SO she gives each
seed charming little wings with which to fly
out into the world and gain a hold upon life
for themselves. When the seeds wake up, and
are ready to leave home, the wind comes along
and away they fly. Each one settles down,
coming nearer and nearer to the soil, until.
hidden away in the grass, or under a leaf, it
patiently awaits the time Of its unfolding

THE BAD SCHOOL LAW.
Much Trouble In Burlington Caused

BURLINGTON, Aug. 80, 1S94.-The
School law passed by the New Jersey
Legislature last winter has created
no end of d%issension among the rural
school districts, and particularly in this
county
. The little school house at Raneocas
was owned jointly by the residents of
Westhampton and W~illingborough Town
ship. The new law legislated the West
ampton people out, and the District
Clerk, under the old law, Frank B.. Den
mis-, refused to give up the school prop
erty to his successor, Alfred Hansell.
The school house was locked. the win
dows barred and the new authorities
warned to keep away. Clerk Hansell
acting Upon the advice of County Super
intendent Haas, broke into the building
and seized the property. A suit for
damages may be the result. Dennis,
acting for the Westampton people,, has
demanded the bono of So 5000 which repre-
SCENTS one-half the cost of the schoo
house, when originally built.
A similar condition of affairs exist be-
tween the Burlington Township and
City Boards of Education. Under the
new law an extra school was thrust
upon the township and the ~appropria-
ton made to pay its expenses is include-
ed in the funds of the City Board and
the trustees are adverse to s~urrending
it. The Township Board has engaged
counsel to untangle the case.

ERICSSON ARRIVES.
The New Torpedo Boats Re-
markable Voyage From Du-
buque to New London.

NEW YORK. Aug. 80, 1Se4.-The tor
pedo boat Ericsson from Newport News,
Va, bound for New London, passed
Quarantine at ten o'clock this morning.
She is painted white, has two yellow
tunnels, and a flag mast amidship on
which she carries a blue flag with let
ters I. I. W.
It was first supposed that the Ericsson
would go at once to the Communipaw
coal docks to take on a fresh supply
of coal, but his did not prove to be the
case.
Instead of going to the docks she went
directly past the Battery and steamed
up toward the Navy Yard. The Erics-
son is bound for New London, where
her speed will be tested as we'll as her
other qualities to see whether or not
the Government will accept her. There.
is but little doubt that she will fulfil
her contract.
h torpedo boat Ericsson is the first
of her kind to be built in an inland
town in this country. She foated down
the Mississippi from Dubuque, Ia, where
she was built to New Orleans before
she began her northward journey.
The Ericsson can, so say its builders,
NPSaO "NAShHh5 w pOoioo
with such force that it will float swiftly
through the water for a mile and a half.
The Ericsson is designed to carry
only three of these 900-pound torpedoes
at one time, and when they are fired,
her attack on the enemy is ended for
that trip. The Ericsson is $50 feet long,
10 feet n 4 inches beam, and II feet
hold. She is supposed to dart out into
the arkness and fire her deadly missiles
among the enemy and then dart back to
harbor again. If she were ever hit by a
shot it could only be a chance shot. But
a nance shot would tear the Ericsson
into smithereens, for she is not so con-
structed as to resist any such force.
Mr.. Dickey and Captain Dolson of the
Iowa Iron Works, which firm built the
Ericsson, are in charge of the boat, n
will remain so until she is turned over
to the Government. Lieutenant N. R.
Usher of the United States Navy, who
was recently on board of the Dolphin,
is with the Ericsson and will make the
trip to New York. He may be placed
in command of the boat after she has
been turned over to the Government.
