ANTI-ANARCHIsT ACTIVITY

A definite announcement of what has
 been accomplished by the International anti-anarCihist convention. which ad- journed last week at Rome, will be awaited with keen interest by all Flu rope Nor can the findings be barren
 of direct interest to the United States The convention, due primarily to the brutal assassination of Austria's excel lent empress, of course represented a specialization of protective and puni- tive study reaching far back in Euro pean experience but startled into defi- nite and concerted action by the trag- edy referred to and the recent murder of Spain's prime minister.
 Unquestionably, some considerable measure of responsibility for anarchy s continued vitality has rested upon the failure of European governments to combine on a single perfected system Of suppression and interchange of police surveillance. It is only by recognizing anarchy's creed as an international rather than a national issue that it's sanguinary achievements can be brought to an end.
 This was the main object of the con ference at Rome. And while humanity and civilization must hope ardently that this aim is to be effectively realized by combination of all European pow CTS, it is to be remembered that the success looked for may inspire anarchy to another effort for the location of it's center in the United Statez-despite the Encouragement it has heretofore suf- fered.
 The Rome convention, therefore, has a direct interest for US as well as for Europe.

THE TERRORs OF KISSING.

In q Kissing contest fer G5 a side, which has just been declared off in a small tcWn in Lancashire, the chaI- lenger sank exhausted at the seven hundredth smack his opponent having scored eighteen hundred in the hour.
 Over in Germany at about the sam time a young lover wrote to his sweet healt that he sent her 10000 ss9s. She sent back word that that was all well enough on paper, but that he lad not the nerve to perform the f5at in a truly manly way. This challenge was likewise accepted, and ten hours time was allowed, with brief intervals fer malt refreshments.
 At the end Of the first hour the score was 200O and the condition Of both active and passive participant good. One thousand mere were addsd in the seccnd hour, but at the 750th k.ss n tn ? third round the young mans lips be- came paralyzed, and he lest conscious ness. This fact, which some might cen slider merited, should prove wa n n g to prCmiscuous kissers as well as to these who concentrate with persistence. It is not paralysis alone, but insanity, which may follow such efforts.-Med- ical Record.

WHY THE DOCTOR DISAPPEARED
Royal Patient Takes Forty-S.x Ss:dlitz
 Powders in Succession.

An English doctor attached to tEe court of a rajah made himself almost indispensable to his neighbCls. He had, fortunately, also made fri5nd of his prime minister. On one occasion his highnegs, being slightly indisposed, had taken, by the dcctCr's advice, seid- litz powder, with which he expressed himself delighted. Its tendency to "boil and fzz ready to blow your nose off, seemed 10 him to scatter cool ness." and he seemed so much better after taking 1t that the dCct1r felt jus tified in joining in a hunting patty.
 Presently hcTseman from the pal ace, in the confidential employment of the grand vizar, galloped up to him.
 My master bids e<ten you," he said, ''that his highness h2s broken open your medicine chest and taken, first, all the white powders and then all the blue"
 Gracious He3vers!" cried the dCc- tor ''There wcre twenty-three each of them.''
 My master adds" continued the messenger, ''that yCu had better make fer the frontier withcu. cna moments delay"
 The doctor put spurs to his horse and never drew rein until he was ''tu Of the jurisdiction Of the court. - d. Bits.

THEY CAME AND THEY SAW.

It is gratifying to The Republican tC
 know that a great many local advertis
 CTS were in the throng that surged
 through this office Saturday night anG
 saw the mechanical wonders in the
 composing and press and job depart
 ments. Probably only a few of these realized the extent Of The Re
 publican establishment prior to this
 inspection. It has not been the GUS
 tom of Arizona newspapers to throw
 open their offices to the public. and
 possibly much that we have said in the
 last year about the completeness of the Republican plant has been taken with Q
 grain of salt.
 | Nobody who knows anything about
 the printing business can inspect The Republican establishment without ac-
 kHowledging that it is complete in every detail. As a matter of fact,
 there is no newspaper office be- tween Denver and Los Angeles or between New Orleans and Los An geles that can compare with this one in point of equipment. Advertisers dc not need to be told that this ext-nsive plant would not be in operation, necessitat- ing the employment of many first-class mechanics, if the patronage accorded The Republican were not satisfactory It takes money to operate an institu- tion like this one. The pay roll fer single month is in itself big item. Every carload of white paper delivered at The Republican office represents an outlay of at least a thousand dollars.
 The interest displayed Saturday night in our exhibition is typical of the support The Republican is receiving m this community. The circulation of this newspaper is increasing steadily. Two years ago it called for less than a carload of paper a year. Nearly five times as much paper is now consumed. Every advertiser in The l has the assurance that his | announcements have a wide circula- ton. On the basis of circulation alone | The Republican would be justified in | charging ten or twelve times as much | for space as the least of it's local con- t:lnporaries. It's rates. while higher | than those of it's contemporaries, still are lower than they ought to be, and | there will be a material advance this year.
 A year from now, when this office will again be thrown open for general | the public will see further evidences of substantial growth. The | is bound to remain at the | head Of the newspaper procession in the southwest.

 Prof. Berg stepped to the piano and played one of Faderewski's compost tions.

The palate is almost tickled with Scott's Emul- sion of Cod-liver oil. The stomach knows nothing about 1t, 1t does not trouble you there. You feel 1t first in the strength it brings; it shows in the color of cheek and smoothing out of wrinkles.

The Gazette is of opinion that The Republican has been giving the people of this town "a song and dance" for the last year. The 1900 people who in spected The Republican establishment Saturday night and saw thousands of dollars worth of machinery in opera tion and plant that cannot be dupli- cated anywhere in the southwest doubt less will agree with us that this kind of a "song and dance" is calculated to irritate the nerves of our contempo- Iary.

A MUSICAL GYMNAST.
Herr Berg Can Play the Piano Thirty
 Hours Without Stopping.

Herr Henry Berg of Budapest who is at present visiting New York, claims the honor of being the champion long distance piano player of the world. He can play thirty hours without resting, and play well, too. The accomplish ment is q remarkable one in musical strength, and Herr Berg is very proud of his powers.
 Not many years ago, for he is a young man, Herr Berg was bent upon becoming a great artist. He gave les sons in his home at Budapest, and de- voted much Of his time during the eVen- ing to the study of the great compos- CTS.

MODERN ELECTRIC ELEVATORS
Growth Coincident With That of High
 Buildings.

There is no feature of Greater New York which caus s foreigners mo e in terest and surprise than the sw it nov ing elevators in all high buildings. While there are a, large number of ele- vatOrs used in the principal cities O. the old world, they are nothing to com pare with the perfect cars, mach ne~y and sytems such as are in comm use in every important city of the Union In this regard it must be granted that even the country cousins who come t0 make a visit to the metropolis find themselves taken up with am2Zement at the sight and sensation of enc of these perpendicular express cars.
 The skyscraper has brought aboIt many developments, and among them the elevator occupies prCmins n posi- tion.

farmhouse was infested with rats and
mice. Every effort to remove the
vermin proved Intellectual. Suddenly
they began to disappear, and when

snake that had taken up its residence
under the kitchen porch. He gave
orders that the reptile should not be
injured, and even set pan of milk
out for it occasionally

strange whirriug sound, looked up and
saw a large rattler coiled on stone

tragedy, and was in a frenzy of terror
when from under the porch the black
