THIRD GIFT or THE KIND
Within -Four Days Three Explosive
Packages Have Been Sent.

enough to kill "a man. arranged in
an internal machine and disguised as a
gift in n cigar box, was received to-
day by Precinct Police Captain Miles
O'Reiny.
This is the third deadly explosive in
of similar construction sent
through New York mails in the last
four days, the other tive having been
received last Friday by Jacob ii. Schiff,
the banker. and NJ. G~uggenheim Sons.
Captain OReilly received Il cigar box
which in weight and every detail mis-
led him into taking it for II genuine
present. Unusually heavy and te-
nacious nails fastening dow the cover,
however. caused a suspicion. When the
box had been carefully opened at the
ends, matches were found glued to its
inner surface in such Il manner that
they would be ignited by the friction
necessary TO raise the lid.
The police found that the flare of
one of the half dozen would have
caused the death of Captain O'Reilly.

them. They are simple lcan-tos made ef
cheap lumhcf and the cracks filed in with
paper and lathcd over. A number OF small
windows are placed in the ends and the
front so that the shed may be as light as
possible. After the COWS are MIXED and
have eaten they are turned loose in this
shed. where there is II liberal pile of clean
straw for them to lie on and a rack OF
good size iilled with straw, corn stov.r or

A MIRACLE OF MILLIONS
In Which a Group Of Frenzied Finan.
ciers Were Once Persuaded to
Believe.

Following is a marvel OF finance set
forth by MIR. Lawson in his story of the
New England Gas and Coke company. in
the August installment Of "Frenzied
Finance" in E~verybody's Magazine:
I'm the transaction outlined to me, Mr..
Rogers, apparently. had religiously fol-
lowed his well-seasoned habit. but ! could
not help gasping at the length and breadth
of his audacity. notwithstanding the
fact that all the stocks and bonds which
represented the ownership of the actual
gas companies of Boston had never sold
for as much as 81, 00o. 600, he and Whitney
had hypnotized a set of exceedingly smart
and able .frenzied f%inanciers into believing
that this city OF 400.0 0 population could
pay interest and dividends on $35, OOO. coo in
addition to the large amounts this deal
still left outstanding. 1t must be under
stood that the new organization in no way
disposed OF our Bay State company with
its far-fung obligations. md SO interest
had to be earned on its securities as well.
There had been inducements, OF course.
There are always douceurs in such deals
Tor the insiders. ! soon learned that the
consideration prompting the Central Trust
company to see the affair from the right
angle vas a promise OF $G00. 600 out OF the
three and a half millions cash business
capital, together with a large block Of the
STOCK for good measure. A slice OF the
stock or cash went to each Of the eminent
Transaction. When I put together the diff
ferent bonuses-I had almost written
bribes-in cash and stock, the stock alone
amounting to eight millions, / realized the
kind OF hypnotism that had been prac-
