As the steel flashed out the King, retain
ing his presence of mind. smartly warded on
the blow, which spent its force In the
cushion Of the carriage.
Before the assallant could strike another
blow General Potrizio Vaglia, who was
driving with His Majesty, attempted to grip
him, but the latter got clear and was pre-
pairing to escape when the mounted guard
struck him instantly to the ground.
The police. headed by Inspector GalazA,
rushed up and seized the man, who gave his
name as Pietro Acciarlto, aged twenty-four
years, by trade mechanic, but OUT OF work.
The King continued his journey. and on
his arrival at the Cappanelle track was
greeted with frantically enthusiastic re-
ception. After the races, on his way home,
he was the object OF veri'able triumph.
Acciarito was brought before the Minis
ter of Justice and the Project, and he de-
clared he had no accomplices, but did not
conceal his Anarchistic ideas Il
seems that he had declared he
intended to kill a distinguished person.
He will be sent to q criminal lunatic asy-
lum. Shoals Of congratulatory kilograms
are pouring in on King Humbert and pub
lie sympathy is stirred to an extent never
witnessed for years.
An attempt was made to assassinate King
Humbert In 1878, ten months after his
succession to the italian throne. As he
was entering Naples, on November IL,
Giovanni Passanante approached the royal
carriage and tried to kill the King with
poienard. The blow fell on Primo Minister
Carroll, who sat In the Carriage with him,
and the King escaped with slight scratch,
The Prime Minister was badly wounded.
Humbert sent Passanante into penal servi-
tuds for ufe, after he had been sentenced to
die by the courts.

According to the census returns.
there are in India fewer females than
males to the number of six and q
quarter millions. It is suggested that
this extraordinary difference may be
partially accounted for by the fact
females are 30 little esteemed as to be
in many cases omitted from the re-
turns, that female infanticide is not
totally stopped, and that SICK girls are
less cared for than boys Out Of the
25s. 900 married girls under five years
of age there are $4,000 who are al.
ready widows. while out of 100, 900
