son Dynamited to Stop Fire.

Madison. Nc, May 3l.-The covered
wooden bridge OF the Somerset Rail-
road between Arson and Madison was
burned Wednesday
The Madison end OF tho bridge was
blown UP with dynamite to prevent the
strong wind spreading tho flames in
this town, 4 nunt er of houses near
the end of the 3tru ,turc being threat =
ened for A time. The fire started at
+. NJ. and at 80 was believed to be
under control. The bridge WIS about
80 years old and one of the first built
by the railroad company. IL Spdnned
the kcnnebcc river and was about 600
feet long.
Its destruction will neceSSitatc the
transportation of freight by wagon
across the river via d bridge quarter
of Il mile below. 1t probably will be
replaced by an iron bridge.
Tho roofs of a number Of buildings
caught fire. but were only slightly dam
aged. The loss on the bridge is csti-
mated at about $4,000. A temporary
structure will be used until a steel

bodies of many persons We're terribly
torn by the force of the explosion.
The news of the attempted assassin
alton spread throughout the city with
great radidity. turning the rejoicings of
the populace to awe. The telegraph Of
fees were invaded by struggling
masses. but rigid censorship was in
stituted.
The explosion would not have oc-
CURED if the cortage had followed the
route originally planned: but returning
it was determined to retrace part of
Mayor street and give the people fur
Their opportunity to observe the pa
geant. 1t was in front of No. IS Mayor
street that the bomb was exploded.
This is within half Il block of the Es-
planlde. leading to the Royal palace.
The bomb which was concealed in a
bouquet. was of polished steel. half a
certimetre thick. It was thrown from
a third floor window. The house, ac-
cortline- to some reports, belongs to the
queen mother. having been bequeathed
to her by a philanthropist and being
the only house she OWNS in Madrid. 1t
is opposite the Church Of the Sacra-
meDt and the captain generals resi-
denCe.
The royal procession had come to a
temporary stop with the royal car
riage exactly opposite the house when
tine bomb was thrown. The missile fell
tn the right OF the royal carriage. The
explosion killed two horses and d
groom. The Duke of Sotomayor. who
was riding on the right hand side of
the carriage. was slightly wounded,
and four soldiers who lined the route
followed by the Cortegc We're killed.
1t is a curious coincidence that just
one year ago today Il bomb was thrown
at King Alfonso in Paris. AS the King.

driving away from ii gala performances

carriage. 1t struck q trooper Of the

then fell to the ground and exploded

All the automobile endurance con-
tests are thrown into the shade by the
remarkable performance of Emil
Bouhours, Of Paris. who rode a bicycle
SIS miles and POI yards in twenty-four
hours. at the remarkable average rate
of thirty-four miles an hour. When
one considers the delay and stops en-
tailed in such race. it means that for
hours the rider must have been pedal
ing his bicycle at the rate Of fifty miles
an hour, and sometimes even faster
than that. The old record for the
time was 634 miles and fifty-seven
yards. or about seven hours slower
than Bouhours's record. 1t is true
that Bouhours was paced by a motor
cycle but he rode without wind
shield, and for a large part of the time
he made his own pace.-Leslie's Week

three stories relative to the deed.
1t is said that Johnson who had
been an enemy of the Thomas fam
lily, waylaid Emil and alta con-
venient moment sprang on his VIC
tim and matters soon got to the
point where Thomas must either
kill or get killed, he chose the
former. We have not learned the
kind Of. weapon used, but at any
rate Johnson lived but short time
after the attack. 1t isn't much the
custom of people to speak of mans
weakness after his death, in fact, it
may be wrong, but it certainly is
equally as wrong if not more so to
pour cut eulogies of unmerited
praise in his behalf. We are told
by people who knew Johnson that
he was of tickle disposition, over
bearing and very much inclined to
be quarrelsome. A big thorn is Of
ten In the path of the transgressor,
as it was in this case. Emil Thorn
as, the young man who found it
his unpleasant duty to strike down
his pressing foe, is OF one of the
best families of Pratt county and
his manly, civil disposition and
social standing, and most of all his
real character is such as we all pre-.
fer. After the deed was done EN-.
il Immediately phoned to the sher.
if of Pratt county concerning it
and told him that he would come
up without his (the sheriff coming
