GATHERING STATISTICS.
The Maine Fish Commissioners Are
 Sending Out Circulars.

Augusta, Me-, Nv. 19.-ln order to obtain as nearly as possible definite and full statistics of the extent Of hunting operations during the legal open season, the Maine fish and game commissioners are sending out orders to all the registered guides in the state for a statement of the animals killed under their guidance, the num- Der of days each worked, the number of persons guided and whether or not they were residents of Maine. and a classification of the killing of all the big game, during the present sea- son. The commissioners in their blanks pay much attention to the moose. Besides asking the number killed the blank calls for the guide to specify where each moose was killed, how many points were on bis antlers, their spread and whether to the guides knowledge any person has killed one of the animals when em- ploying no guide.
 In order to get a working basis for their estimates as to whether moose or deer is more or less plentiful this year than last year, each guide is ask ed to give his opinion and a compila- ton of all with their own knowledge of conditions to enable the commits sioners to get much more reliable es- innate than could otherwise be ob- tained.

Emperor Nicholas left Peterhof for Tsarskoe-Selo November g, and it is believed will pass the winter at the latter palace, fifteen miles from St Peterburg. What was believed to have been a carefully conceived plot to assassinate the emperor was frus- trated by the vigilance of the rail- road guards. While the imperial party was on it's way to Tsarskoe-Selo early in the morning of November 8 a guard discovered six men trying to cut the wire of sempahore signal at LigOvo station at the junction of the railroads to Peterhof and Tsarkoe- Selo. The guard made an attempt to arrest the men but was fired on and wounded. The shots aroused the guards at the railroad station and a number of shots were exchanged be- tween the soldiers and the supposed terrorists, but the latter escaped. It was generally believed that the ter rorists intended to prevent the use of the Ligovo sempahore with the ob- iect of bringing the imperial train to a stop at that point, which it passed a few hours later.

AT THE HORSE SHOW.
Rivalry for Prizes Between the Van
 derbilt Brothers.

New York, Nov 19-Fine weather to-day succeeding the storm of last night, resulted in larger attendance at the second day of the horse show. What was lacking in the number of spectators on the opening night was, however, amply compensated by the quality of the horses contendlng Tor priezs and it is asserted that the show of 1907 will be a memorable one in the high quality of horses shown.

Honors Of the first day went to Reginald, whose horses captured three blue rosettes and two second awards. while Alfred ended the day with first, a third and an honorable mention. The spectators watched the rivalry of the brothers with interest and applaudcd some of the awards of the younger brother.

 Providence.

Providence, R. l., Nov. 19.-One of the most noteworthy gatherings in the interest of the science of city gov ernment ever held in America con- vened in this city to-day for the an- nual meetings of the National Munl- cipal League and the American Civic association, which this year for the first time are held jointly The gath ering has brought to Providence many men eminent for their studies and accomplishments in civic sociol- ogy. The sessions are being held in the halls of Brown university anG will continue until Friday.

AFGHAN WOMEN.
High Caste Mothers Have Lonely,
 Lazy Time of It.

Lazy Time Of It.
 If there are any women in the world who have a right to die of ennui it is those poor creatures of Afghanistan, the upper class danes. They spend their days doing absolutely nothing. for they disdain sewing. cooking and general household duties. They lenve the care of their children to slaves, and they can neither read nor write.
 Generally in a rich house there is one chief slave, a sort of housekeeper. rather a grand person, whom it is al- ways wise to conciliate if you intend having many dealings with that estab- lishment. In summer she is always dressed in purest white. In winter velvets and brocades are not beyond her reach. She is generally an elderly person. with considerable influence and a good deal of authority.
 Then there is another who is sort of maid to the lady of the house. She is another person with whom it is not wise to quarrel. She is always very much in evidence. She it is who pre- pares everything for her mistress tOi- let. as also for her masters. It is the wife's special duty and privilege. how ever, when the things are prepared to wait upon her husband when he is dressing. to pour the water over his hands and feet during his religious washings. to spread his prayer carpet, to put his favorite dish before him. and so on.
 It is difficult to appreciate the exact position of these Afghan women until one sees the way in which mothers are treated by their sons. They may nurse them when they are sick. tend them when they are young. but let the boys grow to be eleven or twelve years old and you will hear them tell their mother to '-chup shO" Cshut upl. send them to fetch their caps and expect to be addressed by the mothers as "agha gull or "agha jon" which means my precious master" master dear"
 KabuI mothers seldom have much affection for their children or their children for them They do not nurse them as babies. and their babyhOOd Is a particularly long one. for they are very backward. They belong to their nurses more than to their mothers til they are two and Oue-half years old and after that 1t is their fa:her who notiees them and not their mOtheE.- EXchange.

MRS BRADLEY TALKS
Prisoner Was Completely UD. neTved and Was Given Time
 to Compose Herself,

Washington, Nov 19.-Mrs Annie M. Bradley, on trial for the killing or former Senator Brown of Utah, took the witness stand to-day in her own behalf, and her assumption of tEat position marked the climax of the famous case. The fact that her story was to be heard under oath had become generally known, and the court room, of limited capacity at best, was crowded long before the incoming of the court. Much inter- est was manifested whsn the pris oner entered the court room a few minutes before 10 o'clock. She was much agitated and seemed almost devoid of courage and strength as she took her customary seat. For tunately for her she was not the first witness called, and she was
 given time to compose herself while Mrs Josephine Tighe, local news paper woman, related the particu-
 lars of a call upon Mrs Bradley in
 the house of detention on Decem-
 Der 10 last, when Mrs Adams also
 made a call. The witness said that
 when she arrived Mrs Bradley was
 lying on a cot apparently asleep, and
 she did not arouse until Mrs Adams
 was announced. ''Then she sudden
 !y sprang up,' said the witness, "anI
 said she would see me immediately. hnr ho fiChV
 appearance, but when Mrs Adams
 was announced she becaLle excited
 and her eyes were bright" She said
 Mrs Bradley nrevouslyly clutched | the bed clothes. Taking all the in-
 dlcations into consideration, the wit
 ness said, she had reached the con-
 clusion that Mrs Bradley was in Sane.
 It was 10:15 o'clock when Mrs
 Bradley was called, and she immedi-
 ately faced the jury and the audience "I call Mrs Annie Adams" said Judge | Powers, and the interest was intensi- fled. He immediately corrected his
 mistake announcing that he meant
 Mrs Annie Bradley. By the time the first question had been put the wit
 ness had gathered herself together, and her nervousness had well nigh
 left her. Her voice wa slow and in- distinct, but the tone was firm, so
 that while the stenographer wa; at first compelled to repeat her responses to the jury, she soon gained sufficient confidence and strength of voice to enable her to be heard by giving care full attention.
 Judge Powers asked the questions
 and they were at first directed to de-
 veloping a history of the defendant,
 who said that she was thirty-tive
 years of age; that she was born in Kansas City, and educated in Denver;
 that she had had small poX and panu- monia and had been badly hurt by a
 blow on the head while a child

Mrs Campbell Here.

Mrs Patrick Campbell, her daugh- ter, Miss Stella Patrick Campbell, i,and the formers toy dog "Pinky Panky Poo," attracted considerable attention along Bank street this afternoon. For a time it appeared as though the great actress would in the future steer clear of this city for her pet Pinky started to have it out with Dr Fox's midget, a toy fox terrier. This happened while mother and daughter were in a trunk store on Bank street and dear little "Pinky' for moment got out of their sight. But the fight CTS did not stay together long and there was no cause for tears. "Pinky Panky Poo" is prized very highly by it's owner; none better in the world is the way Dr Fox feels about his pecious little canine.

WHITE HAND DIPPED
While They Are DeliberstiDg Black Hand Goes on Killing
 as Before.

Chicago, Nov. 19.-The Black Hand gave it's answer yesterday to the declaration of war from the Mano Blanco. or White Hand, formed to ex- terminate the Italian blackmallers' who have been terrorizing their coun- trymen in Chicago. -
 While a committee of influential Italians was preparing to raise tuno of s5O,OO0 with which to fight ana stamp out the blackmailers, Mariana Scardina, a young Italian who lett Buffalo a few days ago on account or trouble with a secret society there was stabbed to death in his fathers saloon. .
 Shortly before the death of Scar dina. Max Friend, wealthy whole sale liquor dealer, received tnlra warning from the Black Hand that unless he paid S250 within A hours he would be killed and his home dy- namited. MT Friend had received two warnings before, but had disregarded them. Last night he remained at his home with a revolver within easy reach ready to meet any members or the society who might attempt to carry out their threats.
 The murder of Scardina was taken to be the result of saloon braWl by the police until investigation was made. Then the reticence of witness es showed that something was behind the stabbing. Scardina was in his fathers saloon with about twenty other Italians. According to inform ation given to the police he was seat ed alone by stove in the saloon

HURLED A BOMB
Passenger on Elevated Sent It I1to Block on Ibird Avenue
 To-Day
BUILDING DAMAGED

New York, Nov 19.-A dynamite bomb which had been hurled from a passing elevated railroad train threw consternation into the sixteen fami- lies who occupy tenements on the several floors above Wing Fing's laundry at 362 Third avenue early to-day. The lower part of the build ing was badly damaged by the ex- plosion, but none of the occupants of the house was injured. Many of them were tumbled out of their beds and nearly hundred frightened men, women and children rushed into the street from the rocking building. Many windows in the neighborhood were shattered and several pedestrians were bowled over in the street nearby by the concus- sion. The thrower of the bomb has not been found and the reason for his act has not been learned. The police are inclined to believe the bomb was hurled by an enemy of the Chinese laundryman, whose shop front was badly damaged by the ex- plosion. Wing Hing, however, de- clares that he has no enemies. He suggested that possibly the missile was intended for Greek restaurant which adjoins his place of business. when he was stabbed in the heart. AS he fell to the floor free for all fight started among those present and when the police arrived only three or four men were in the saloon.
 That the Black Hand or some kin dred society had been responsible for the murder occurred to the police when the elder Scardina said his son had been forced to leave Buffalo by a secret society. It was the police theory that Scardina had been follow ed from Buffalo by an enemy who had escaped in the melee that follow ed the murder.
