A BOMB was thrown into the crowd
during the Corpus Christi procession at
Barcelona, Spain. on the 7th. Its ex-
plosion resulted in the killing Of seven
persons and the injury of forty The
perpetrator of the deed is as yet I'M
known, and his motive is equally a
mystery. Two dynamite petards we're
exploded in front of the house of priest
at Oriendan, near San Sebastian, on the
Bay of Biscay, on the same day. Much
damage resulted from the explosion but
there was no fatality. This is evidence
that the anarchists of the old world are
becoming active again in their dastardly
work.

Olney is capable. The letter was prac.
tically dictated by President Cleveland.

WHAT TO SAY AT A CRITICAL
TIME.

One is always expected to say something
when looking for the first time on new
baby, and as it is neither kind nor safe to
tell the truth and say that the little, red.
pudgy creature doesn't look like anything
we give list Of unpatented and uncopy-
righted remarks to be used on such occas-
ions:
"Well isn't he cunning? He looks like
you!'
II think he's going to look like his
fatheru'
Hasn't he dear little fingers?" Do let
me see his dear little toesn'
Isn't he large?
Isn't he tiny darling?
How bright he seems!
Did you ever see such sweet little
mouth?
Isn't he just too sweet for anything?
The dear little darling! | never saw so
young baby look around So
so please, please, let me hold him just a
minuten'
Any and all of these remarks are war
ranted to give satisfaction just as they have
been giving satisfaction from time imme-
mortal until the present day.

PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS
A Successful Leader of Forlorn Hopes
and An Orator of Great
Ability.

ST. ADELAIDE DE PABOS, QUEBEC,
July 16.-William Eustls Russell, the
thrice Governor of Massachusetts,, who
was prominently mentioned for the Demo-
cratic nomination for the Presidency be-
fore the silver feeling became so pro-
nounced in his party, died suddenly in a
little fshing-camp in the woods near the
settlement of Little Pabos some time
during last night or in the early hours of
this morning.
Heart failure was the probable cause of
his death, which came without warning to
himself or friends. He had not a symp-
tom of illness up to the time he retired for
the night. That his death was painless
was shown by the position of the body
when found and the expression on his
face.
Governor Russell, his brother, Henry E.
Russell, and Colonel Francis Peabody
OF Boston arrived at Little Pabos yester-
day for few days fishing. They pitched
their camp in the woods near the settle
ment. Their tent was divided into two
rooms, one OF which was occu pied by the
Governor and the other by Henry Russell
and Colonel Peabody. The party retired
early as they intended to start ABOUT day
light for the fishing place.
Colonel Peabody and Henry Russell
were astir early, and were surprised that
the Governor had not put In an appear
ance when they were ready to start. They
went to call him, and were mortified at
finding him dead. The Coroner was i'm
mediately notified, and will hold an in
quest The remains will then be taken to
his late home in Boston.
Little Pabos, where Governor Russell
died, lies near the entrance to the bay OF
Chaleur, large inlet OF the Gulf of st.
Lawrence. 1t has always been favorite
resort for salmon fishermen. 1t is reached
by small steamer from Quebec.

eight big horses, started out on its regu-
lar trip through the streets of the city.
The driver, miscalculating the height of
the wagon, attempted to drive through
the Fort Wayne bridge. The bridge proved
too low, however, and when the driver
saw his mistake ne was unable to stop the
horses They dragged the wagon in, and
the occupants were either scraped of or
crushed between the wagon and the
bridge.
1t was at first reported that five or six
of the occupants of the wagon were killed
or fatally hurt. Teller, agent of the show,
saws: flour of our musicians were fright
fully injured, and two will probably die.
The others were not seriously hurt. We
do not know how the driver miseaiculated
the height of the bridge or how the horses
were beyond his control"

to the tax the road should pay. He said
an officer of the road had called at his
office to pay brokers license. He stated
that the road had paid $3.50 as license in
1884. but that they had paid no taxes for
1895. and wanted to know ii the big fran
chise was to acquit its debt with the State
with the plttance of this brokers' license.
Section 7 of the charter provides for a
tax on all tangible property and stocks
and for taxes as other railroads pay and
brokers' license in addition. The road
has practically paid no taxes. The new
revenue Law passed in 1892 provides for
franchise tax and is sufficiently sweeping
in It's terms to reach this corporation,
and the tax when fixed by the state Board
of Valuation and Assessment would
amount to about 100000 per annum.
1t is through this board that the road
will be cached and will confront giant
com batants should it attempt to evade on
a technicality the plain letter Of the law.
Auditor Stone said to THE CALL CORE
spondent:
AZ have not answered Clerk Johnson
letter, but it is my opinion the road should
deal directly with my Office. They have
not paid the tax and it is due and should
be paid. l shall certsinly demand that
they comply with the plain letter of the
law"
Acknowledgement Taylor was then called
in consultation and the matter laid before
him. General Taylor Immediately called
UP Clerk Johnson at Louisville by tele-
phone and asked him for written state
ment of the amount of taxes the road had
paid to the State together with the name
OF the agent and all other facts necessary
to set about bringing the proper procedure.
This Will be received by Taylor tomorrow
and be and Auditor Stone have an engage
