R|0T|NG IN PARIS
STRIKERS ERECT BARRIcADEs
AND OPPOSE TROOPS.
MAY DAY BRINGS TROUBLE
Violent But leaderless Tumuit Of Ls-
borers, Aoitators, Anarchists, Rev
olutionists and Rouahs.


Paris.-The long dreaded May Day
failed to bring the revolution which
inflammatory journals predicted, but
none the less 1t brought scenes Of ex-
treme violence. The labor districts,
which thousands of troops controlled
with difficulty, and even central por-
tions of Paris have taken on the ap-
pearance Of siege, with regiments OF
infantry and cavalry camped about tho
Arc de Triomphe, the bourse the Bank
of France and the great railway sta
tion, while military sentineis paced be-
fore banks and private establishments.
The main thoroughfares in the resi-
dental portion of Paris remain tran
quill.
In the west end, far removed from
riotous scenes, people were disposed
to treat the events in the labor quar-
ters as harmless effervescence. 1t was,
however, much more than that.
Throughout the afternoon dragons.
Republican guards and cuirassiers
the Place De La Republique and the
broad Boulevard De Magenta.
Toward nightfall cavalry charged
wounded on both sides. The
manifestants overturned omnlbuses
and threw up hasty barricades. Over
1000 arrests were made during the
day.
At no time did the demonstration
reach the magnitude of a revolt, but
was rather a leaderless tumult in
which the serious labor element, strug.
Cling for a principle, was hopelessly
confused with violent agftators, an.
archists, revolutionists, roughs, and a
large number of the curious. The work
men never succeeded in forming a pro-
cession or even in assembling more
than scattered bands. Their chief ac
tion was reunion of several thous
ands in the Labor Exchange at which
resolution was adopted not to return
to work until the eight-hour day shall
have been accorded.
The worst hours of the day were to.
ward O'Clock this evening, when the
police practically lost control and were
compelled to rely on the mounted
troops. The latter, forming in lines
twenty yards across and fifteen yards
apart, swept the Place De La Repub.

into the surrounding streets. Most OF
the mob sought refuge in the Boule>

der. Here trumpets sounded repeated
commands to disperse, and the cavalry
Salloped into the crowds, trampling
and injuring many. A body of foot
guards became surrounded by mani.
festants and was rescued with diff.
Guilty by cavalry with drawn swords.
Here a considerable number were
wounded. BY 6 o'clock calm had been.
measurably restored and most Of the
troops returned to their barracks.
Throughout the disorders the author.
tiles succeeded in executing their orig.
inal plan of holding the disturbers
strictly within the limits of the labor
districts and not permitting them to
press toward the wealthy, commercial
and residential sections.

GouId's Western Pacific Plans.

New York.-According to Edward T.
Jeffery, president of the Western Pacific
railway, the catastrophe at San Fran.
cisco has In no way affected the plans
OF the transcontinental enterprise,
either as regards the terminals at Oak,
land on the station buildings in the
city proper, which will be built on as
elaborate scale as originally decided
upon. In this connection it is inter

Il Iron Company will supply all the
rails for the 1880 miles of road
planned from Salt Lake to Oakland,
and that these and all other supplies
Will be hauled over the Denver & Rio

Beyond the Dead Line"

Look around the world to-day, and
SEQ what some of the men who have
long passed the dead line" are doing,
and what they have accomplished.
Look at the young old military lead
ers in little Japan who conquered great
Aussia. Oyama was 20 years past this
fatal line when he won his great VIC
tories, and all of his corps command
ers were past so. Marquis Ito, the
Grand Old Man of Japan, her greatest
statesman, and the one who has done
more than any other to make Japan

Gently made one of the strongest and
most vigorous speeches, on the Pana-

made. Joseph Chamberlain, nearly 20

cal reform. President Eliot, of Harv-
ard university, everything considered,
~as, perhaps, been the greatest uni
'ersity president of his day, and near
ly all of his greatest work has been
done since he crossed the line of the
comparatively useless age" His
mind is still strong, alert and creative.
Charles Hazlitt, consulting engineer of
the city of New York, over 95 years Of
age, works in his office every day at
drawings and plans-the most intri-
cate work. He is such an efficient
worker that he has been held in office
by every administration, Republican
and Democratic, alike. for over a quar-

HooDoo FAILS TO CONQUER.
Business Pluck and Persistence Win
After Long Struggle.

Superstitious folk and unsupersti.
tious ones, too, are interested just
now in the dingy London building, 10
Friday street. Friday street is one OF
the narrow, crooked thoroughfares OF
London's ancient city"
1t would seem, of course, that there
could be no address more fatal than
this to business success, and up to a
comparatively short time ago 13 Fri
day street realized all its possibilities
as "hoodoo." Several business en-
terprises in succession failed there,
and then the building stood vacant
for number Of years. Finally it was
reopened by a firm of bedding manu-
facturers. but they soon came to grief
and everybody in the neighborhood
was finally convinced that no under
taking could possibly resist the COM
bined influence of No. 13 and Friday.
Everybody, that is, except two young
men who had been assistants in the
Inflated bedding business. Their
names were Haines and Stroud; they
didn't believe in omens and they made
up their minds to take over the ruin
ed concern.
They had little or no capital and at
first the luck set in dead against them.
The struggle was long one Finally
however, despite the fact that they
refused to employ even the ordinary
safeguard Of keeping black cat, and
depended only on hard work to
change the luck, the partners won out
and they are now one of the most
fiourishing firms in the locality.

Probably the most important step
that has been taken in this country
during the last decade has been in the
direction OF reclaiming arid and semi
arid lands by means Of irrigation.
Vast tracts in the west and middle
west are now richly productive that
once were considered worthless tor
raising crops. Deserts formerly given
over to meager brush and cactus are
row wonderfully fruitful fields and
gardens. In this development the de-
partment OF agriculture has been a
most potent factor. 1t has realized
the dreams of the pioneers that were
considered visionary and impractical.

San Francisco.-In the presence OF
