ter by American citizens ON a
purely American matter, are now,
it is to be feared, consenting with
more than complacency to all
manner of slurs upon an Ameri-
can Minister in relation to inter-
national matters. The Govern
ment should be jealous of having
such matters thrashed over in the
newspapers, instead of having
them left to its own careful treat
ment according to the meth
DDS of diplomacy. With the
reciprocity treaty, the cable and
annexation all pending between
the two countries, there is liable
to be serious mischief wrought
through the license taken, regard
ing the accredited representatives
of the United States, by that por-
ton of the press which assumes
to have peculiarly in its custody
the welfare of this Republic.

Timely Topics


TranSvaal republic is one of
the greatest diplomats in the
world. He is a living proof of
the fact that in rare instances
the diplomatist is born, not
made. He is ignorant of let
tiers and the elegancies of life
and his range of reading is
very limited, but the old Boer
possesses qualities that enable
him to cope with the cleverest
of the trained diplomatistS of
England.
The attention of the whole
civilized world is now riveted
on this man and his doingS.
His every act is reported in the
London and New York papers
by able special correspondents
detailed for the purpose.
Here in this little republic of
fly-SpeckS on the great Pacific
we are so far from the arena
in which the present great
game of diplomacy is being
carried on, and our means Of
getting news from the outside
world are so few and far be-
tween, that we have more time
to attend to our own and our
neighbours business-especially
the latter, if all reports are true.
We want to call the atten-
ton of readers of the Bull
LETIN this week to something
which not only interests them
but their neighbors also. 1t is
to an article called CARBO-
LINEUM AVENARlUS. We
believe those are Latin words
but we don't know and we
don't care. We know the ar
ticle is good for the purpose it
is used, and that is all that
concerns us.
Carbolineum AvenariuS is
used for preserving wood
against all insects, rot, fungus,
etc, and it does the business
in great shape. 1t is applied
the same as paint and is in a
convenient and handy form
for use. We had a lot of this
valuable compound some time
ago but the demand was SO
great when people got to know
about it that our stock was
soon exhausted. We have
plenty on hand now, however,
to supply everybody.
In building houses this pre-
paration is invaluable for coat
ing plates, mudsillS and any
lumber which is liable to come
in contact with moisture. II
is excellent to preserve the ends
of fence posts and telephone
poles. Railway ties coated
with it last twice as long as
without it.
Nearly everyone is troubled
with borerS about their prem
iSes. These pests will not
touch any woodwork that has
once been coated with Carbo-
lineum AvenariuS. Five dol
lars invested in this prepare
ton will save $500 worth of
lumber.
This is not a new preparation.
1t has been in extensive use in
Europe and the United States
for twelve years past, where it
is gaining favor as its merits
become better known.

A Bold Thief.

About 3 O'Clock the other evening a bold
attempt was made to swipe a couple of
suits of clothes from j. w. Werner's
clothing store at Sioux Falls. Mr.. Wer-
ner was alone in his store and at the hour
mentioned he was called across the street
by {. II. OrmistOn, and was having a
little political discussion. Mr.. Werner
noticing the shadow of some one moving
around in his place of business, thought
a customer had entered the place while
his back was turned and returned across
the street. Just as he reached the curb
ins a fellow emerged from his store with
lack full of something under one arm
and a bundle of loose clothing under the
other. Mr.. Werner asked him what he
had, when the fellow dropped the clothes
and broke into a run followed by the
clothing warrior, who did not succeed in
'atching his man. The goods dropped
consisted of two full suits taken from Mr..
Ncruer's store.

THE NATURE OF DYNAMITE.
The Criminnls' Most Dangerous
Weapon Against Society.

The Criminnls' Most Dangerous
Weapon Against Society.
Dynamite is the most deadly weapon
Of modern criminals against society.
1t is a combination Of nitro-glycerine
with a plastic kind Of clay. In appear
ance it somewhat resembles putty, and
is made up into cartridges, each weigh
ing about two ounces. The manufac-
ture Of dynamite is attended with some
risk, but when once made, If the ingre-
dents are pure, it is comparatively
harmless so long as it is kept apart
from the materials which are used TO
explode it.
1t is commonly supposed that the
transportation Of dynamite is very dan
gerous, but it is far less so than gun
powder. A wooden ~packing-case filled
with the explosive has been set on
fire, the only result being a burst Of
dynamite fame.
Boxes filled with dynamite have been
loaded with dynamite nave been smash
ed in railroad collisions without al ex.
piosion.
Commonly, the destructive proper
ties of dynamite are brought into play
only by means Of a decorating cart
ridge. In blasting rocks with dynamite
the dynamite cartridges are first press
ed into a hole, and over them is inserted
another kind Of cartridge, called the
primer.
This cartridge contains a "detona-
tor" which is a copper cap an Inch
long, holding a small charge of fulmin-
ate powder. To this primer is attached
a fuse, and when the fuse burns down
to the illuminate in the d~etonator it
explodes; and this, in turn, fires the
dynamite and skaters the rock.
If the detonator is set with more than
three-fourths of its length in the dyna-
mite, the fuse may set fire to the latter
and burn it away harmlessly before tn"
illuminate is reached and exploded. This
accounts for many unsuccessful at
tempts to blow up buildings.
