THE COLUMBIA CALENDAR.
A Highly Artistic Production for 1896
-.Bright Thoughts by Columbia
Riders and Much Useful
Information.

The Columbia Pad Calendar for 1895
has made its appearance, and handy
and convenient as it has been hereto.
fore, the new issue certainly surpasses
any of its predecessors The cycling
fraternity, to say nothing of the gen.
eral public has acquired a decidedly
friendly feeling for the Columbia Cal.
endar, and its annual advent is looked
forward to with interest and pleasure.
The new calendar contains a much
better arrangement than in previous
years, more space having been allowed
for memoranda, while greater charm
has been added by liberal illustration
and a unique and convenient grouping
of dates, calculated to meet the hurried
needs OF business men. All these, how
ever, merely form a setting for the
bright and sparkling thoughts contribu-
ted by Columbia riders everywhere:
for such host of friends has the cal
endar acquired that it has become
customary practice for wheelmen all
over the conntry to jot down their best
thoughts and inspirations after being
subjected TO the exhilarating influence
of the Columbia ride, and to send them
in to brighten its pages. In addition
to these pleasing features the moon 3
phases are indicated for the benefit of
those who wish to know the best time
for night riding. The many dainty
sketches that embellish its pages rem.
der 1t indeed work of art. Owing to
the unusual demand last year much
larger edition has been issued for '96.
The calendar can be obtained forI five
two cent stamps by addressing the Cal
endar Department of the Pope Manu-
featuring Company at Hartford, Con.
nectcut.

Assassinated.

cal works, located at Yonkers, was IN

which the police think was placed
there for the purpose of destroying
life and property. There is a deep air
of mystery about the entire aHall,
and one particularly sensational ru-
NOR is a1oat The body OF the vlctlm
was frightfully mangled by the eX-
pIosion and death must have come III
stantly.
Embedded in the flesh of the dead
man were found several pieces OF
cast iron. Other pieces were found III
the office They were carefully placed
together, but not enough of Them were
found to show that it was a bomb OF
machine that exploded A piece OF
cast iron pipe, about six lncneS III
length by one and a half inches I'D
diameter. was found. Fastened to
either end of this piece Of pipe was
can which was screwed on. The odor
and smoke indicated that the explosive
was either dynamite or giant powder.
So far no motive has been disclosed
for the murder Mr.. Andrus was pop
ular in Yonkers and was essentially
home man. Information OF startling
character was received by the police
which may aid in the solution OF the
mystery.
It was to the effect that the bomb
was intended for John IF. Andrus,
brother of the dead man, several
times millionaire.
John Il. Andrus did not appear at
the office of the chemical company this
morning as was his custom. On learn
ing of the explosion and death of his
brother he hurried to the police station
and communicated with Capt. Mangln.
10 the captain he said that the eX-
ploSion Of the bomb might have been
the work of anarchists and offered
al explanation for his belief. About
three weeks ago he said he was walk
ing along Wall street, New York, when
he was accosted by rather seedy
looking individual, who took him by
the arm and said:
Mr.. Andrus, you are very wealthy
man. You have too much money, and
l am one of number of people who
believe that you ought to distribute
at least one-third Of what you have
among the poor. You will either do
this or there will be a way found OF
compelling you to do it"
Mr.. Andrus, according to his story,
paid but little attention to the strang-
err Up to the present no arrests have
been made. MI. Andrus was direct
or of the Citizens National Bank of
Yonkers and a member Of the First
Presbyterian church. He was a pub
lic-spirited citizen and was always
identified closely in all public matters
that tended to the welfare of the peo-
pie and the place.
