THE NUMBER or ANARCHISTS INCREASING.

Considerable alarm is felt in official circles over the rapidly increasing number of anarchists that are finding their way to the United States. The immigration authorities are of the opinion that unless something is done by treaty or other wise. the United States will soon be overrun by this undesirable class In the naturalization law recently passed. there is a restriction on giving citizenship to anarchists and regulations are now being formulated to make this effective. That however. does not prevent anarchists coming to this country and preaching their doctrine. It is element to obtain admission to this country and congress will be asked to consider more drastic regulations regarding them.

STANFORD WHITE AND THE WHITE HOUSE.

The recent tragic death of Architect White, who was shot by Harry K Thaw, attracted un- usual attention in Washington because he was of the firm of architects that made the plans for the renovation of the old White House and the construction of the executive odice buildings. There has always been a diversity of opinion as to whether the expenditures amounting to about a quarter of a million dollars, in restoring the White House to its original design, were justified. In the opinion of those of artistic taste. 1t was money well spent, although the general public does not appreciate what was done. The original design of the White House contemplated Q terrace on each side of the main building This had never been fully carried out, huge conservatory on the vest an ugly structure of glass; wood and iron, taking the place of the terrace. This was removed and the extensions on either side are

burglars off, for the dogs soon stopped
barking, although the mea did not be-
tray their presence. They probably
managed TO slip away unobserved by
going in direction that could not be
plainly seen from the window.
Had the thieves gotten into the post
office their efforts would not have been
rewarded, but Postmaster Handy
takes all of the money out Of the post
Office each night, leaving nothing there
that is likely TO tempt thieves.
From the manner in which the men
worked it is believed that they are the
ones who have been committing rob
berries in towns along the railroads in
this section, and they are also thought
to belong TO the gang that has been
operating in Wilmington.
At Carpenter the dogs would prob
ably have made matters lively for the
thieves had they not been fenced in.
The thieves operated on the postoflice
porch, which faces on the road and il
fenced of from the yard.

fint night in the Tomhs, under a charge
of murder, was an unevcntiul one. He
retired early, slept soundly through the
night and arose apparently refreshed.
Ihaw's whole appearance was changed to-
day. He seemed much brighter than at
any time since the tragedy, and for tho
iirt time since he has been in custody
he appeared 20 take a lively interest in,
his surroundings He was astir and
partly dressed when the morning gong
sounded, at z o'clock, and greeted the
guard cheerily when the officer visited
his cell. After a light breakfast which
was supplied by the prison caterer, Ihaw
asked for and was given al the morning
newspapers. He glanced through them
hastily, giving particular attention to
the headlines and illustrations IN COM
ncction with the story In which he was
the central figure. He seemed greatly,
pleased when informed that Mrs Ihaw
had expressed an intention TO visit him
during the day.

in the negative. The physician remarked
that he supposed Ihaw had been accus-
toned TO having q stimulant Of some
kind before retiring and that he would

that under the prison rules he could
not bo permitted 10 indulge his habit.
Thaw admitted that the physician 3
