DARK DYNAMITE PLOT.
Suspected Scheme to Blow Up
Government Buildings.

Suspected Scheme to Blow Up
Government Buildings.
A Washington special to the st. Louis
Globe Democrat says: Notwithstanding
the absolute secrecy of the police and
secret service officials, it is learned on
high authority that scheme to destroy
several of the public buildings of Wash
ington has been detected and is now un-
raveled. Friday afternoon man at work
on AnaloStan Island, in the Potomac
River, mile west of the city, discovered
a box of strange looking things. He re-
ported his discovery to the police
officials of No. precinct. They
sent detail and patrol
wagon. What they found was startling.
Hidden in dreary, wild spot were can
ister containing 250 pounds of dynamite,
large canister of nitroglycerine and a
can containing white mixture. These
dangerous explosives were taken TO the
station. The officers, who are being aided
by the secret service, have clew which
leads to the belief that Spanish spies had
secreted the explosives with the purpose
of blowing up some of the public build
ings. A sensation is expected to develop

The liberal cabinet, under Senor
Sagasta, assumed Office October 4, and
was formed shortly after the assassination
of Senor Canovas del Castillo, who was
assassinated on August 8, 1897, by an
Italian anarchist named Golli. One of the
first steps taken by Senor Sagasta was to re-
call Gen. Weyler, the then captain general
of Cuba, who was succeeded by General
Banco. But the situation did not i'm
prove, and Spain was courteeuSly but
firmly warned that the United States could
not much longer maintain neutrality in
the face of the terrible situation of affairs
in Cuba and the damage which American
interests were suffering therefrom.- Spain,
however, refused to regard the situation
from humanitarian standpoint and dip
lomatic relations with the United States
were broken off on April 81 last. 1t is
officially denied that the cabinet changes
are connected with peace movement.
On the contrary, it is declared that Pre-
mier Sagasta's ministry, when the new
ministry is formed, will continue to prose-
cute the war with the full recourse of the
cnuntry

IA Mother Used to Do.

He criticised her pudding and he did
not like her cake; he wished she'd
make the biscuits like ''his mother used
to make" She didn't wash the dishes,
and she didn't make the stew; and she
didn't mend his stockings '.as his moth
er used to do" Oh, well, she wasn't
perfect, but she tried to do her best,
until at length her time had come to-
have a little rest; so when one day he
growled and whined the whole day
through and through, she turned him
up and famed his pants ''as his mother
used to do"

Business Interests and the War.

When it is borne in mind that all the
men likely to be engaged in the war
with Spain will not amount to 1 per
cent. of the active working male popu-
lation of the country, and that all the
money that will be expended is less
than the capitalization of each of sew
eral railroad companies in the United
States, the Importance of the war, con-
sidered with respect to it's effect on
trade and industry, is insignificant.
There is no good reason why business
should not go on without serious inter-
ruption, and the reports of the trade
reviews show that this is the view
taken generally by merchants.-Kan-
saS City Star.

FRESHNESS of an Egg.

To ascertain the freshness Of an egg
without breaking, says writer In
Good Housekeeping, hold it before
strong light and look directly through
the shell. If the yolk appears round,
and the white surrounding it clear, the
chances are that the egg is fresh. Or,
you may drop it into water; II the egg
sinks quickly and remains at the bot
tom, it is, in all probability, fresh, but
IL 1t stands on end it is doubtful, and
quite bad If it floats. The shell or
fresh egg looks dull, while that of
bad one Is glossy.

Fodder from Russian 7 his4les.

Farmers about Alliance, Boxbutte
County, Neb., claim that when the

richer milk will result when fed to.

The Gerrymander Nuisance.

The Supreme Court of Illinois has
very properly killed the infamous ger
rymander enacted at the recent session
Of the Illinois Legislature. The decis-
ion goes to the very root of the ques-
ton and prevents any further attempt
at apportiOnment until after the next
census. Every step that is taken to-
wards putting apportionment beyond
the reach of continued meddling is ben
eficial, and If the States would adopt
the rational basis of county representa-
tion they would be rid Of this perpetual
nuisance altogether-Indiana Sem

Instead of new papers for pantry
