IDENTIFY brother of one of the soldiers, hold
ing little child by the hand, a young
woman and an older one, perhaps mother.
Suddenly they spied their loved one on the
platform of a passing coach, and quickly
the man snatched him by the arm, pulling
him from the train. He was pounced upon
by the others and was kissed and hugged
until exhausted. The child had been for
gotten for the moment, but when the big
brother started away without noticing her
she bean to cry piteously. She was quickly
caught in his arms and her tears dried. He
then rejoined his comrades to prepare for
the march through the city.
No sooner had the train come to a stand
still than the parents, friends and sweet
hearts swarmed into the coaches and greeted
their dear ones with tears of joy in their
eyes. One boy rushed madly from the train
into the arms of his mother and several peo-
pie vainly tried to conceal their tears at the
touching scene. Flowers in an abundance
we're handed to the boys and each bouquet
bore card inscribed with name which
was zealously guarded by the receiver. The
band left the cars and those who went on
the special train to meet the battery stood
about the platforms in all the glory of the
red neckties that had been procured and ex-
ploded firecrackers with as much energy as
a small boy on the Fourth of July. About
twenty minutes were thus spent in the COM
pany of relatives and friends and then the
march to Tomlinson Hall was commenced.

TO PUNISH ANARCHISTS.
joint International Action Urged by
German Newspapers.

Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press)
BERLIN, Sept. T.--The assassination of
the Empress of Austria at Geneva, Switzer-
land, on Saturday last by an Italian An
archist has led to a violent outcry in some
of the reactonary organs for repressive
measures against Anarchists Indeed, some
of them went to extremes advocating meas
ures against Socialists and their ''allied
political parties" Statements have appeared
in several of the newspapers to the effect
that the German government intended to
take the initiative in proposing interna-
tional action. Official circles, however deny
any such intention, but they declare that
any proposals on the subject will be well
received by the German government, which
will do all possible to cooperate with united
action.
In spite of this there is no chance of any
sweeping, repressive legislation being
adopted in the Reichstag, as the Center
party, without which no such measures
could pass, says, through it's leading organ,
the Cologne Volks Zeitung: 1.-THE murder
of President Carnot gave birth to the Ums-
turz bill of 1894. We may, therefore, ex-
pect that Luocheni, the assassin of the
Empress of Austria, will cause second
edition of the bill to be introduced. But if
so, it will suffer the same fate-defeat.
Even the least informed persons are aware
that Socialists and Anarchists are not
Identical"
The Vorwaerts remarks: Behind the
Reichstag stands the German people, who
understand that legislation in the guise of
fighting the Umsturz will only benefit capi-
talists and severely injure the rights and
well-being of the laboring masses
The liberal newspapers all denounce the
idea of repressive legislation; but there is
strong current in court and government cir
cles in favor of such measures, and a dis
patch sent to Emperor William by the
spokesman of the leading industrial asso-
Citations of the Rhine and Westphalia well
coming in advance any steps ito repress
the enemies of the state and ethical order"
is significant, especially as 1t was sent so
soon after his Majesty had personally, in a
speech, pronounced himself in favor of such
repression Diplomatic circles will not be
surprised IL Russia and Austria set on foot
a proposal for international action against
Anarchists, but they consider it extremely
doubtful whether Great Britain the United
States and Switzerland will cooperate The
Deutsche Zeitung suggests that ali the Eu-
ropean governments agree to deport con-
fassed Anarchists TO far away island and
keep them there until they die.

was one OF the worst he ever was in,
filled with drunken sailors from all

GYMNASTICS FOR GIRLS.
Practical Hints on Physical Culture for
Health and beauty

Physical culture in the home, with
reference TO the development Of health
and consequently beauty, is discussed
by n writer in the Woman's Home
Companion. who gives simple direc-
tons for private gymnastics. She says:
Systematic exercise can accomplish so
much that il is u marvel to n who
has enjoyed It's benefits that it Is not

~ unnecessary to be mistress of a
system Of physical culture. There are
n few exercises which. taken regularly
and thoroughly. will accomplish all
that n System would. Tho tendency Is,
however, to he unsystcmatic in taking
these exercise. and thus lose Their
