war he gave US his startling, sub

with a very different subject and is
a much smaller accomplishment, but
it has in common with the war study
the originality of its point of view and
a courageous scorn of literary tradi-

qualities is lacking in this latest book,
rather is each one strengthened and in
tensifed by the facts of nearness

has written the romance of Western

for heroism-a sane spiritual heroism

like them are some of the uncommon
features Of The Third Violet It's
claim to consideration, however, lies
in the original point of view from
which Mr.. Crane sketches the very
ordinary love affair that furnishes
what little plot there Is TO the book :;
again the literary traditions are disre-
garded, this is by no means the love
we have been taught to believe in by
the authors who tread constantly in
each others footsteps, but the love
that amuses and wearies and interests
us when our neighbors= are the lovers
A lover would not even recognize such
love-but his friend would. Just as
The Red Badge OF Courage" is a
purely subjective study of war, THE
Third Violet" is purely objective
study of love, the one as unusual and

EXPLOSIVES IN ASHES.
An Apparent Attempt to Blow Up II
Boiler shop. -

BUFFALO. July 24.-An employe of
the Lake Shore boiler shops made a
sensational discovery this morning
when cleaning the ashes out of a pit
where boiler plate is heated. In the
bottom of the pit, under two feet Of
ashes, he found fifteen fifty calibre
cartridges. one $50 calibre cartridge
nearly six inches long, and bomb
filled with dynamite and powder. Fiji
teen men usually work around the pit
when it is in operation. Had he not
taken the precaution to clean the ash
pit, terrible explosion would have
occurred. By some it is thought the
explosives were placed in the pit for
the purpose of injuring the men who
took the places of the striking boiler
makers recently.

OPENING OF NEWPORT PLACE.
Important Question Passed Upon b.
Attorney for the District.

Important Question Passed Upon by
Attorney for the District.
An important question has arisen before
the Commissioners with reference to the
opening of Newport place. 1t is in effect
whether the Commissioners, in view of the
record in the case by which proceedings to
open said street were abandoned, because
of the position of the Court of Appeals, can
take up the work where it was left off now
that the Supreme Court of the United
States has overruled the Court of Appeals
In 1895 proceedings were begun to open
Newport place through square 60. When
the Court Of Appeals handed down the de-
cision in the case of the District vs.. the
Prospect Hill cemetery, all proceedings
were stopped. 1t will be recalled that the
opinion of the court, which was delivered
by Mr.. Justice Morris, was in effect COLI
trary to any such proceedings, and it was
deemed best to delay the matter until the
Supreme Court of the United States should
finally dispose of the case. The Supreme
Court. through Mr.. Justice Gray. in deliver
Ing the opinion, overruled the Court Of APP
peals, as stated above, and made 1t possible
for the Commissioners to proceed with the
opening of Newport place.
When the matter was called to the at
teEtfon of the Commissioners few DAYS
ago they called in Attorney Thomas and
asked his opinion as to whether they could
take up the proceedings where they had
been left and push them to final disposition.
The attorney says the Commissioners may
take up the case where 1t was abandoned
in the spring of 1895. ard that all that
is necessary is to write to the marshal
to proceed with the case where It was left
of. This being done the marshal will
notify the property owners. The Treasury
Department, Mr.. Thomas says, must also
be requested to restore the balance of the
appropriation of $4,000 provided in the act
of March 3, 1893 so as to make 1t ayaila-
Bile to pay the damages in this case.
