DYNAMITERS WORK.
AKRON POLICE SEARCH FOR
PERPETRATORS.
pnicer's House Blown to Bits-Father,
Mother, Son and Baby, Buried Under
the Debris, and Had Marvellous Es-
cape.

The entire police department at Ak
ron, o., has been working diligently
and investigating every club which
may lead to the unearthing OF the das-
tardly scheme to kill Policeman W. j..
Bruner and his family Of that place,
whose home was blown to splinters a
few days ago by dynamiters. Mr.. Bru-
ner, his wife, Elizabeth, his on
George. nine years old, and Harold, a
baby eighteen months old were in the
house at the time. They were blown
out of bed and buried under the debris,
but none was seriously injured.
The house was a two-story frame
structure, with wing. Mr.. Bruner,
his wife and baby slept on the first
floor of the wing. The other son oc-
cupied a room on the second floor. the
wing Of the house was reduced to
kindling wood, and the occupants were
dug out Of a big pile of plaster and
broken timber. No trace OF the pea
was found larger than splinter. Inc
baby was at first missing The little
cradle in which 1t slept was complete
ly destroyed. A faint cry presently at
tracted Burners attention and the
baby was found bruised under mass
of plaster and broken furniture, three
feet deep. 1t was only slightly bruis-
ed. The force of the explosion damag'
ed houses for block around, and there
was not a window left unbroken for
more than 100 yards. The report could
be heard two miles away. The police
believe that the dynamiting was an at
tempt at revenge upon Mr.. Bruner.
South Akron has recently been infest-
ed by gang Of firebugs and Police
man Bruner has been very ambitious
In his efforts to break up the gang.
Several residents OF that portion of
the city have fallen under suspicion,
and they have been closely watched.
Knowing this, 1t is believed they
sought to get rid of the officer. Eight
men are now under arrest on suspicion
OF having been connected with the
work. The men under arrest are:
Frank Klein, Ed Apletzel. Charles
Hall, Clarke Boone, Lee Myers, Milton
Brecenridge and Arthur Craig. Soon
after the explosion the officers picked
these men up at their homes.
All were in their houses and appar-
emily unconcerned, although they lived
In the neighborhood OF the scene, while
every one else for blocks around was
out on the street and highly excited.
1t Is believed that many pounds of the
explosive were used, as the explosion
was tremendous and an enormous hole
was dug In the ground under the house
The heavy foundation timbers were
reduced to toothpicks and hurled for
blocks away. A few scratches total up
the injuries sustained by the family,
and their escape from being blown to
atoms seems marvellous. Mr.. Bruner
has been a member of the Akron po-
lice department for more than fourteen
years. His superiors esteem him as a
faithful officer and his record Is with
out flaw He has been doing patrol
duty on the east side for several
months.

Religious Teaching Not Raon,ra,

Although the Philippine commission
enacted provision last January max
ing 1t lawful for the priest or minister
OF a church to teach religion in the
public schools at stated times to pupils
whose parents or guardians asked for
such instruction, it is announced by
the commission that thus far not one
such request has been made. The
American authorities are at loss to
understand this, especially in view of
the fact that large majority of the
Filipinos are Catholics, and, therefore
presumably anxious to have religion
taught in the public schools.

NEW WORKS. WISE ouLLs.
They Know Fish Day and the Steamer
Sailing Days.

SAILING Days.
Every day is in a measure fish day
at Fulton market, but the seagulls
know the chief fish day of the week,
says the New York Sun. 1t is then
that they feast to their hearts content.
Their coming and going has for years
amused and interested the ferryboat
passengers, and some of the latter have
been observed to look up from their
papers, glance out of the cabin win
dows, catch sight of the army OF Sulls
and exclaim, BLESS me. there are the
gulls. 1t is Friday again"
The long winged travellers of the
sea are always to be seen in the East
river. opposite Fulton market in the
day time, but they gather there in
greater numbers on Friday because so
much refuse is thrown away that day.
They hover over the surface OF the
water by hundreds, taking from the
water such food as is to their liking.
They are the scavengers of the East
River in this respect. The intelligence
of the gulls is remarkable in one way.
Besides knowing which is the big fish
day on the East river, they know the
chief sailing days on the North river.
The American line usually dispatches
steamer for Southampton at 10 a. M,
every Wednesday. Some minutes be-
fore the ship leaves the pier the circl-
ing of the gulls in midstream begins
The birds know from experience that
before the ship leaves quantities of
food are thrown from the ships ports
and they make a dash to recover 1t
the moment the ship pulls out. 1t Is
amusing to watch one of the gulls try
ing to lift from the water piece of
food twice as heavy as itself. Some
times these gulls will hover around the
American Line pier until noon of
Wednesday. At this hour the Red Star
liner starts for Antwerp, leaving the
water of the slip filled with discarded
food. More frequently, however, the
birds will hurry off to the White Star
line piers directly after the American
| liner leaves her wharf. The White
| Star steamer sails each Wednesday at
noon. On Saturdays and Thursdays
the gulls go to Hoboken to get what
the neutrality-suspicious. liners leave
behind. These are about the only lines
that have fixed hour for sailing and
the gulls have become acquainted with
the fact. The harbor gulls fare better
than their kind far out at sea. The
latter frequently have to follow a ship
for days to supply the demands Of
their appetite

Australian papers state that the ex-
pertinent of the West Australian gov
eminent in turning domestic cats
loose in the southeastern districts of
the colony to check the invasion of
rabbits from South Australia has been
pronounced success. The felines
destroyed immense numbers of the
nests, and in some cases almost clear
ed the squatters runs of the rabbits.
In anticipation of the demand which
is expected for cats for this work
breeding establishments are being
started. 1t is believed, however, that
1t will be found much cheaper to
import the animals.

Destruction of Sea Birds Mt Gulf.

Professor Boyer, of the American Or
astrological Association, who has been
operating along the Gulf coast with
the object of appointing bird wardens,
reports that during his observations
he found that the breeding places of
nearly all the sea birds had been de-
stroyed, both by killing the birds and
taking their eggs On Brush, Call
low, Calumet and Castelle Islands,
which were not long since the abodes
of millions of sea fowl, he found no
birds at all. On Timballer Island a
few gulls and hens still remained
which was also the case on Lost Is
land. He appointed wardens wherever
birds were found and succeeded in get
ting the fishermen to promise to aid
the wardens in preventing the killing
OF birds during the breeding season
and the stealing of eggs.-Philadelph

good deal has been heard OF the
Lila Fail" or stone OF destiny, which
is placed under the seat of the corona
ton chair in Westminster Abbey, but
few people realize the extreme an
tiquity of this uninteresting looking
rough, gray block. 1t was brought to
ireland about 1900 b. c. by the Tuatha-
de-Danaans, a mysterious eastern race
which conquered Ireland at that peri
3D. No one is quite clear as to their
identity, but many savants suppose
them to have been Chaldeans, Persians
or Phoenicians. Those races were GER
tainly highly civilized, even 80 long
ago as the date mentioned, says
writer in Modern Society. They at
tached the greatest possible value to
the stone and used to crown all their
monarchs on 1t.
Three OF the Tuatha-de Danaan
queens regnant who sat upon the stone
OF destiny rejoiced in the curious
names of Fodha, Bamha and Fire, the
last a name that is creeping into use
again Of late after long eclipse. In the
sixth century fergus, king Of Scots,
an Irishman by descent, borrowed the
stone for his coronation at Scone and
'froze on to it" when he had It, 1t
never went back to Ireland, and many
historians date the commencement of
the distressful country's woes from
that loss. Edward /. Of England car
ried off the stone from Scone and plac-
ed it in Westminster Abbey, where it
still remains News.

Was Not Stupid.
But while dogs have been celebrated
for semi-human intelligence, and cat
tie have been known to evince some
practical understanding, 1t was a sur
prise to discover something like intel
ligence in an animal whose stupidity
had given occasion for a proverb Not
long ago one of the razor-back swine
Indigenous to the State made an essay
on the fence of place nearby. 1t had
been the site of sawmill, and the
fence was built OF waste boards re-
naming after the removal of the
works The boar commenced his at
tack at the end of the board part of
the fence by swaying sidewise as far
as possible without losing balance, and
then hurting his bulk against the
board as close as he could to the post.
He had apparently decided that draw
ing out the nails would be the easier
manner of entrance. The force of i'm
pact was really formidable, and the
watchers of his movements were not
a little fearful of his success. After
several unsuccessful attempts, he de-
sisted, but went grunting along the
fence as il examining the quality of
the lumber until a split plank was
found. A sharp crack followed the
throwing of himself against this. He
returned to the charge again and again
until the barrier was removed, when,
with a assisted grunt and a squeal of
invitation to his numerous family, his
long bristly snout appeared through
the opening.-Our Animal Friends.
