Mysterious Crash in Madrid Church Leads
to Rumor of Alfonso'S As

MADRID, Nov. 12.-The explosion of
several cartridges, mysteriously placed
under the altar of the Church of St Pc
ter Sunday caused a serious panic
among the worshipers and gave rise to
rumors in the capital later i'll the day
that an attempt had been made to as
sassinate King Alfonso
The rumor of the attempt on the life

Many Injured in Panic
During the service of the mass n
Franciscan preached the sermon. While
he was exhorting the people the eX-
plosion of the missiles came without
warning.
The worshipcrS made a rush to escape
into the street.
This resulted in n congestion at the
doors, in which many persons We're
thrown down and trampled upon by
those who pressed on in the rear.
Before the victims could be extricated
several of them We're seriously hurt.
Many women tainted, while others be
came hysterical, their screams adding TO
the terror in the church.
An investigation has been started, but
as yet there is not the slightest clue
which would lead to the discovery OF
the person who placed the cartridges un-
der the altar or of the motive for the act.

The
Theatres
il


Klaw & Erlanger presented their
stage production of Gen. Lew Wal
lace's historical and religious story,
1.-THE Prince of India" at the Broad
way theatre last Monday evening.
This great play scored a success new
err before achieved except by Ben
'Hur" and proved a worthy successor
to that wonderful drama in interest
of story, portrayal of character and
scenic investiture.
Like "Ben-Hur," the theme and
locale of scenes require a vast equip
ment of scenery, costumes, armor,
properties and mechanical effects,
and, like "Ben-Hur," no%twithstand-
ing this demand, the wonderfully
powerful love tale and religious
theme are not subordinated to the
spectacular or material side. The
play itself claims first interest, the
massive stage equipment serving
only as a true pictorial background
to a story that would be thrillingly
impressive even were it related on a
bare stage by the company employed
in this presentation.

|Edward e. Pidgeony dramatic critic
OF the New York Press, VINO said:
The audience made the roof ring
with enthusiastic approval of the
nerve-tingling climaxes that mark
the close of the prologeu and every
one of the five acts, the last of which
had four scenes that for magic OF
stagecraft, enthralling interest and
melodramatic moderation never have
been equalled. 1t is in this act that
the great scene of the'play comes. 1t
is the assault of the Islamite horde
upon the walls of Constantinople and
its Byzantine defenders upon the
Emperor Constantine. When they
finally force a breach and come pour
ing in seemingly by the thousand,
there is presented a picture wonder
full to behold. Another scene, less
sensational but equally dramatic in
the truer sense, when the Prince of
India, played with distinction by En-
nett Corrigan, struck the emperor
on his throne and defied the court to
inlict upon him the death that for
a thousand years had been denied
him, fairly took the audience by
storm and inspired it to a pitch of en-
thusiasm rarely seen in a New York
playhouse"

School Fairs and their Value.

The tendency of the times towards
the practical in educational methods is
we'll illustrated by the announcement
of the introduction of school fairs in
a western state. The principles OF agri-
culture are to be taught in the school
and put in practice to limited extent
upon the school grounds. The boys
and girls are to be urged to put the
principles in practice at their homes
and in the autumn a school fair is to
be held at which the children will con-
tribute specimens of the crops grown,
when q further explanation of the
principles of plant growth will be made
by the teacher or some one qualified to
give instruction upon it. 1t strikes us
that this is a practical method OF
awakening an interest in the study OF
the things observed in everyday life,
but upon which so many people are
intensely ignorant. 1t will also be the
means of awakening an interest among
the parents of these children in plant
growth and perhaps induce them to
consider for the first time some of the
important principles underlying pro
gressive agriculture. They may have
been planting, cultivating and harvest
ing crops all their lives without Civ
ing any thought except to the labor
applied, and therefore have failed to
realize the pleasure that may be de-
rived from intelligent application of

The Necessity of Advertising.

The man who does not advertise to
the readers of The Ranch either lacks
the conviction that his goods are as
good as he claims, or is making some
thing you do not want or perhaps
thinks he can get your business with
out asking for 1t, or does not want
your business.
The progressive man of this day,
when he has something good, tells ali
the people he can about it right Off,
If he has something that you want, it
does not profit him to keep still and
leave you in ignorance Of it. People
who advertise are progressive and
awake and those are the people who
have enough gimp in them to be up-to-
date in the product they turn out Good
things need not avoid publicity. Pub
hcity airs, ventilates and aerates.
Firms whose methods and products
stand the test of publicity are deserv-
ing of the favor of the reading public
over those who work under cover. The
manufacturer who expects his catalog
to sell you his goods, in competition
with the smooth-tOngued agent, has a
good deal of confidence in the merit OF
his goods as well as your judgment.
