lately in front of my house and |
therefore feel that / am privileged to
! speak on this question, as it was
m ereiy a matter of chance that it was
not one of my own children that was
shot, instead of my neighbours.
In my opinion, the boys are not so
much to be blamed as are their par
ents iwho permit and the
use q such things promiscuously in
our ST 'eets and yards. Air guns are
bad el tough and can cause serious
injury. but rifles are worse, and
neitheG should be tolerated in the
thickly populated districts of the
city.
Is it not possible that public senti-
ment c IN be awakened. to such an
extent hat this practice will be stop
ped and | trust that the EVENING
NEWS will use its influence towards
its suprn ssion.
If there is not a city ordinance
forbiddil ig the use of guns of this
descripti on, II Is my opinion hat one
should b Immediately enacted which
would 2 rovide an adequate punish
ment for. those responsible. and that
it should be the duty of our city
fathers TO see that the law is rigor~
ously enforced by the police depart =
ment.

MET WOMAN ANARCHIST
She Has Been in Communication
With Berkman While in Prison.

NEW YORK, May 21.-There Is ample
reason to believe that Emma Goldman.
the anarchist, met Alexander Berkman,
who was set free in Pittsburg on Fri
day after serving a sentence of four
teen years for his attempt on the life
of Henry G. Frick. within an hour aft
er he had passed out of the prison
gates.
The Goldman oma left this city a
week ago Friday. She took care that
her departure was kept Il secret from
the police and not more than two per-
sons were aware of her destination.
From an authentic source it has been
learned that she was bound for Pitts
burg, there to await the release of the
man who volunteered for 'the reds to
assassinate Prick in 1892 at the time
of the Homestead strike.
1t is Il well known fact now that
Berkman was in constant communica-
ton with the Goldman woman through
out the fourteen years of his sentence.
Under the prison rules he was permit
ted to write only one letter a month.
The anarchist convict adhered to this
rule, but every letter was IL compre-
hensive II and sent directly to Emma
Goldman.
