October.


October is the month that seems
All woven with midsummer dreams.
She brings for us the golden, DAYS
That fiji the air wtsh smoky haze.
she brings for as the iisping breeze.
Who whisper near the vacant nest
Forsaken by it's feathered guest.
Now s.1alf the birds forget to sing
And half of them have taken wing
Before their pathway shall be lost
Beneath the gossamer OF frost.
Now one by one the gay leaves fly
Zigzag across the yellow sky:
They rustic here and au.ser there
Until the sough hangs chill and bare
what JOY Tor US what happiness
Shall cheer the day, the night shall hIess ,
IT'S halloween, the very last
Shall keep for US remembrance fast.
When every child shall duck the head
TO find the precious pippin red

TO KILL THE GAR
A Plot Against the EmperOr's
Life Discovered.
The Plan Was to Blow Him Up
at Moscow.
HOUSE FULL OF GAS
Was to Be Exploded as He Was
Passing.
By an Error the Explosion Took
Place Too Soon.
HOUSE FULL OF GAS

New York, Sept. s.-A dispatch to the
World from London says:
A report is published here of a daring
plot to assassinate the czar at Moscow
last week.
The plan Of the conspirators was to
allow gas to escape into a house on the
route of the czar's procession until the
atmosphere in every room had become
saturated. One of their number was to
remain in the house and strike a light
when the car was passing in expecta-
ton that the house would be blown to
pieces and the ezar killed by the flying
debris. The conspirator would perish
himself as a sacrifice to the cause.
This duty fell to the lot of one Alex
ander KolanOf. In his agitation Kol-
anof seems to have made an error, as
the explosion was mistimed. When it
occurred a staff officer and his wife
were driving past the house and they
instead of the car, were killed. Their
coachman will probably die of his in
juries and about 80 other persons were
more or less seriously injured.
Kolanoff's mangled body was found
among the ruins. The car and car
ina drove by just Is minutes later.
Many arrests have been made in Mos
COW, but the Russian press has been
forbidden to refer to the matter.

CAN'T STAND A NOISE.
Queen WiIhelmina Asks Her People
Not to Cheer.

! Amsterdam, Sept. S-About Sc 900
/ working people, with bare heads, gath
| cred on the damplatz this morning
/ under a scorehing SUM- waiting to catch
| a glimpse of the young queen of Hol-
/ land. The sovereign, however, sent an
| de-de-camp to the place with the re-
| quest that the spectators resume their
hats. This thoughtfulness on the part
of the queen was greatly appreciated
by the immense crowd, and evoked ire
mendous cheering from the waiting
multitude.
The queen subsequently listened to
| the singing of a grand chorus by 1000
scholars. She appeared nervous and
unstrung, and had requested that her
subjects refrain from cheering. The
people respected the young queens wish
to the letter and when the singing by
the scholars had ended an absolute
silence prevailed, which was more i'm
pressive than the mighty cheers which
had previously been given.
In spite of the orders that no mem
bers Of the royal families or of the
nobility of any other country than Hol-
monies, Lord Rosebery, who had been
on board Baron de Rothschild's yacht
Rena, attended incognito.
