The Assassin an italian.
The assassin was Immediately arrest
ed. He is Neapolitan and gives the
name Of Rinaldi, but it is believed that
this is an assumed name, and that his
real name is Michele Angino Coli.
The health Of Senior Canovas had i'm
proved greatly Of late. He had been
leading very quiet life. although he
attended to the business Of the state.
At the moment of the assassination he
was waiting in the gallery Of the bath
ing establishment for his wife, who was
to join him for lunch. Suddenly the as
sassin, who had the appearance of an
ordinary visitor, approached and fired
at him point blank, one bullet passing
through the body and coming out be-
hind under the left shoulder, and the
other two Lodging in the head. He fell
instantly, and only recovered conscious
ness long enough to speak few words.
Narrowly Escaped Lynching.
Several medical men and his wife
were unremitting in their attentions to
the sufferer, but his wounds were NOR
tai and he died in two hours. Extreme
unction was administered amid a scene
of mingled horror and indignation. The
assassin narrowly escaped lynching at
the hands of the walters and attendants
who rushed forward. Detectives and
civil guards Immediately secured him.
He was very pale, trembled violently,
and evidently feared he would be killed
on the spot. He will be first arraigned
before the local magistrates at Vergara.
The queen regent and all the men,
bers OF the cabinet will return here at
once. The cortes will be summoned to

Calls It . "Just Vengeance"
The murderer declares that he killed
Senior Canovas ''in accomplishment Of
just vengeance" and that the deed Is
the outcome Of q vast anarchist con.

The remains Of Senior Canovas will

The announcement of the coming Of
Hoyt's "a Texas Steer" TO the Opera
House next Friday. january 29d, for a
single performance, will be welcomed
with a feeling of delight by the entire
comedy loving population Of Wheeling.
The reputation of Charles H. Hoyt as a
comedy writer mas been established be-
yond any question Of doubt in the popu-
lar mind. 1t Is well known fact that
dramatlsts as well as authors are wont
tn be, and noticeably are Yoluminous in
direct proportion to their appreciation
by the public and consequently the re-
putntion of a successful comedy Is no
more inconsistent than the continued
livelihood of a story. While "A Texas
Steer" may not be consistently reckoned
with a standard novel, It's application 10
contemporary events Is still so clearly
apparent that its popularity is not to be
u source Of wonderment. Perhaps Hoyt
and his kind are not producing comedy
which may be classified as ultra re-
fined but that II is most amusing and in
tcrestirg cannot be denied. The comedy
Is satire from beginning TO end. Anus

HOTEL AND CORRIDOR.

Robert A. Pinkerton is in the city.
The name is a menace to every criminal,
not only in America. but throughout for
eign countries. 1t is a name that has so
long been identified with the detection of
the tranSgreSSor of law and order that
it yields, under analysis, the sounds that
are ominous 10 the evil-doer What does
a criminal dreadsmore than to be pinked,
and the last syllable of the word has a
most stable significance.
Mr.. PinkertOn is not engaged on any
great piece of detective work and he
Subordinates ana Lanan Doyle. To stand
off al d distance and survey Mr.. Pinkerton,
one would not pronounce him detective.
He favors a well-fed banker or a prosper
Gus merchant. 1t is only when you Eet
closer to him that the traits which made
Allan Pinkerton famous and noted. He
subtract you, and then go into the higher
branches of mathematics. After the head
of the Pinkertons has gotten through
''siZing you up, one feels that an A-ray
could know no more about your mental
anatomy.
Mr.. Pinkerton also has the most ex-
pressive hands. They are deliberate, calm
and authoritative hands. They pick up
piece of paper as though it was a rare
species of bug. 1t is handled so quietly
without the slightest noise, glanced at so
searchingly and then laid down so slyly:
Then Mr. Pinkerton'S walk is noticeable.
He steps more upon the ball of the foot
than upon the heel. 1t gives a forward
springiness, like that of a racer ready to
get away on the pistol shot.
g g o
One other little trait and then Mr..
Pinkerton's pardon will be craved. His
attire is striking, and this statement will
be the most surprising portion of rather
poor study of the personality of the great
detective. 1t is a generally understood
theory that detectives dress to attract
the least attention. They do, but if any
person familiar with criminology and
those who are associated with It IN ire
line of retribution, detective is not a
difficult person to spot. Now, Mr.. Pink
erton has the one universal fault of all
detectives. In attempting to dress so as
to escaDe attention he has gotten INTO
the professional toggery of men in his
business In the first place he wears n
collar that is distinctively a detective
adornment. 1t is a sober collar that a
modern banker or a modern merchant
classes as out of date. In the next IN
stance he wears fdur-in-hand that IS
not worn now by anybody in the mercan-
file world and Scarfpin that Is attected
in the same way. In short, he is too
much in face like q gentleman of very
modern ideas to do as he does.
sDetective' is stamped all over him.
and it was an easy matter to PICK him
out on impulse.
R,1t there is nothing out of the ordinary
in Mr. PinkertonS visit 1t is partly one
of recreation, his wife and daughter ac-
comnanying him to the coast. There are
nine Pinkerton agency headquarters IN
this country and numerous correspond
ents Robert A. Pinkerton, the visitor
has his home in New York, and he over
sees what is known as the eastern d,vls-
ion which extends to Chicago, and that
William Pinkerton, the elder brother, is
