One of the triumphs of modern science
was exempliflod in connection with the
plot to blow up the steamship Umbria
with an internal machine. When the
steamship sailed from New York the only
person on board who knew of the narrow
escape of the craft from shipping the dy-
Mantle and the accompanying clock
work was the captain, and he supposed
the secret was safe until the wireless
telegraph carried an inquiry whether
there was any excitement on board in con
sequence of the attempt to blow up the
vessel. Fortunately the operator showed
the message to the captain before deliv-
ering it to the man to whom it was adj
dressed and thus the matter was kept a
secret until the passengers learned from
the English papers Of the narrow escape
they had had from possible death at sea

The case of Alexander Sigurdson, q
young man residing at warrenton,
should receive more than ordinary at
tention. Mr.. Sigurdson is but 10 years
OF age and is in the employ OF the A. &
C. R. r. as a painter. Upon the COM
plant OF the father Of Matilda Costa,
aged years. he was arrested and
brought before the justice of the peace,
charged with an attempt to commit
crime, which, IL guilty, should have
sent him to prison for long term of
years,
The examination showed conclusively
that there was not the remotest found
alton for the charge, and the deputy
prosecuting attorney very justly made
a motion to dismiss the case.
The father Of this little girl was en-
tirely too hasty in prosecuting. If re-
ports are true, Mr.. Sigurdson bears an
excellent reputation and it was gross
Injustice to have him dragged into
court under such charge. If the par
ents had carefully investigated the
trouble he would have doubtless learn
ed enough to have caused anxiety as
to the conduct Of the little girl.
The whole affair is to be regretted,
but it should serve as lesson to par
ents to be sure they are right, or that
foundation for prosecution exists, be-
fore taking steps involving the charac-
ter Of worthy young man and which |
end in serious reflection upon the
parent and child prosecuting.

STATE ALL RIGHT, SAYS PLATT.
Republicans In 1904 Can Meet Double
McClellan's Plurality and Win,

Senator Platt left for Washington yes
terday afternoon to be on hand for the
special session Of Congress-. Before going
he expressed satisfaction at the result Of
the election in this State on Tuesday. Sena-
tor Platt said
"The returns indicate a most satisfactory
condition in the State Of New York from
a Republican standpoint. 1t is doubtful
IL, in many years. In any similar election
results have been more satisfactory. The
Republican representation in the Assembly
is increased over last year by seven, part
of which gain comes from Greater New
York. The election OF Senator Carpenter
in Westchester county. together with the
election of three Republican Assemblymen,
was significant victory.
The ma jority of SO 900 for Col McClel-
Ian in Greater New York falls far short of
that given Judge Van Wyck in 1893, when
a candidate for Governor against Roose-
4,53O and was greater in every borough
than this year, while it will be remembered
that Coler, the Democratic candidate for
Governor, received last year a ma ajority in
Greater New York of about 122, 900.
.The Republicans Of the State Of New
York can meet double the ma ajority given
to Col. Mcclellan in New York city this
year in the Presidential campaign and still
hold the State IN the Republican column
by safe figures
"There is everything to encourage and
nothing to dismay the Republicans of the
State as a result OF the recent election.
The Republican trend has. in no instance
been confin ed to any section, but Is gen.
eral throughout the entire State
