ANARCHIST MEETS
 MOST TRAGIC DEATH

Hearst News Special to the Graphic.
 Paris, Dec. 5.--Liberated, the mo- torious anarchist has met with a tra- sic death. On leaving an anarchist gathering in Rue du Chevalier de Ia Barre, Ill Montmartre, he was attack ed by several persons In the course of the fight he was kicked in the abdomen and was removed to the Lariboisere Hospital, where he died shortly afterwards. He was one of the most prominent Revolutionaires in Paris. Although he was no longer young and walked with the aid of crutch and stick, he had many ad mirers among women. He always wore & long blouse, and, as his long hair testified, gave the barbers little employment. Whenever he went to q meeting he had an escort of women. After delivering a violent speech he would leave the hall accompanied by his faithful bodyguard, who not al- ways succeeded in saving him from rough usage. It Is said that Libertad left his body to the Faculty of Medi |cine, who will have his brain examin led by phrenologists.

Prince of Wales
 Looks After Comforts

Hearst News Special to the Graphic. London, Dec. 5.-ilways interested in the welfare of workingmeu the Prince Of Wales has decided that all the dilapidated property in South London. belonging to the Duchy of Cornwall shall be swept away and replaced by new buildings with every modern convenience.
 Transformations In this way have, already taken place on tho duchy estate at Bennington. Whole streets have been entirely rebuilt and the Iola griny tenements have given way to clean bright looking blocks of flats which are as well built as any pro perty in London.
 The flats which have been con- structed for the workingmen are very roomy and convenient. Rents are very low and whenever any of the new places are for rent unnumerable applications are received for them.
 The greatest regulating scheme ui- der consideration of the duchess, how ever. concerns that vast mass of pro- perty in Princes Meadows belonging to the estate of King Edward When Prince of Wales, expressed wish that the whole of this great area con- taining some 5000 houses should be entirely cleared and rebuilt on a plan which would make it a good residen- tiaI district. The King desired that that the slums with which the dis trict abounds should be replaced by streets in which any workman would be glad to reside This scheme is now to be carried out by the Prince of Wales.
