I was on the upper Ohio once when the |
river was low, and was much amused over |
the use to which pilot put a megaphone.
He bought the thing TO call ashore any
message that might have been given the
boat to carry. This was TO save time, for
those little boats in the local trades are a
great deal like the old fashioned mail car
riers-anything to accommodate the peo
pie along the bank.
1--WE were in the pilot house, and the
boat was running up shoot near the
West Virginia side of the river. In a corn
field was an old farmer, who was follow
Ing pillow behind an old, flea bitten gray
that only needed half invitation to stop
at any time. The pilot put the megaphone
TO his mouth and shouted Whoa! and
the old gray whoaed.
1.-THE farmer heard the sound, and he
thought, evidently, that a neighbor was
there or thereabout, for he looked around
to see whence the sound came. Then he
| tossed "a clod at the old horse and started
| him up.

| old horse stopped. Then the old Rube
went 10 the river bank and looked down

the steamboat and scratched his head In
surprise lie couldn't afford to waste any

brush and cut IA stick that was 10 fec

ANARCHlSM IN SPAIN.
The Revolts and Assassinations That Have
Followed In Its Wake.

When, in 1873, King Amadeo vacated
the throne the republic was proclaimed,
and the Carlists began their attempt to
grasp the reins, Bakunin, the father of
anarchism, thought Spain was a good
country in which to make an attempt TO
introduce his theories. A paper called the
Condenado was started, with the motto,
" Atheism, Anarchism and Communism.
Soon the Red International had GA clubs
in Spain, with about 300, 900 members.
Feb. l3, 1873, the mob rose in Barcelona,
March in Alcoy, where frightful massa-
ores took place, and July IL the famous
rebellion Of Cartagcna began. The au-
thorities were SO snuch taken by surprise
that large part 81 the fleet fell into the
hands of the Reds. The instruction was
not crushed until January, 1874.
In 1888 the anarchists stirred again, this
time in Andalusia, where they burned and
pillaged villages and poisoned cattle. In
the churches candles filled with dynamite
were exploded, and % murders were re
corded in ten days The movement was
| guided by the mysterious "Black Hand
| from Cadiz. In 1884 seven of the anarch-
lists fell into the hands of the authorities
and were executed. They were revered as
martyrs by their comrades, and bomt
throwing followed to avcnge them. In
the house of parliament, in the ministr,
Of finance and in the streets Of Madrid ex
blossoms did much harm in 1887.
In 1885 400 anarchists took possession
of Yerez and tried to storm the jail, bu
were defeated by the cavalry and infantr.
in the place. At the same time attempt
were made in Cadiz and Bilbao. On
hundred and eighteen anarchists were al

en- the judges by the throwing of bombs

musical training; but, oh, he could sing.
Whenever he sailed into hymn the corn
folds would turn their ears toward the
church In those days hymnbooks "ero
scarce. and il was customary for the MN
lister to read two lines of some famiilar
HYMN, and the congregation would theh
sing them, tho tune being generaiiy
