CYCLONE IN MINIATURE,

What would have developed into n
cyclone in Iowa, ended harmlessly on
the North Bench sand pits early this
afternoon. A peculiar combination OF
air currents produced a miniature
whirlwind that raised n heavy pillar
of dust several hundred feet straight
up In the air After this had con-
tinued for few moments, the top Of
the column branched out horizontally,
and from this Il long spiral streamer
shot up several hundred feet further
into the air. This latter waved to
and fro, the base OF the column was
broken, and then the entire feature
went UP In smoke" so to speak.

SECOND ATTEMPT IN A YEAR

NEW YORK. April al.-Another attempt
was made yesterday to kill President Es-
trada Cabrera Of Guatemala. at Guate-
mala city. the capital of the republic. ac-
cording to cable dispatch received last
night by DIR. Ramon Bengoechea. Guate-
malan consul general in this city. The
dispatch follows:
LAS President Manuel Estrada Cabrera
was entering the palace to receive in pub
lie audience William Heinke. the AmeEi-
can minister. there occurred series of
explosions. Fortunately his eXcellency es-
capped with only the loss of finger.
Complete order and tranquility prevail in
all the country
Say It Was Shooting.
According to other advices. the pres-
dent had arrived at the gate of the ma
tional palace. situated in eth avenue, near
18th street when number of men
opened fire on him with revOlvers as he
stepped from his carriage.
One of the shots took effect. wounding
Senior Estrada Cabrera in the right hand.
The police and military escort who &C
companied the president drew their re-
volvers and rushed after the would-be as
sassins Many arrests have been made.
but it is not stated whether the real au-
thors of the outrage are among them.
Not the First Attempt.
President Cabrera has in the last year
been the object of several similar attacks.
presumably on the part of political enc
mics.

tempts at assassination occurred April
o. 1907 when a mine was exploded close
to the chief executives carriage. Gen.
Orelana. chief of staff Of the Guatemalan
army. was killed by that explosion. as
were the horses attached to the presiden-
tiai carriage.
Omcial Investigation of that plot re-
vealed a most carefully planned and in
8enious mine. by the explosion of which
It was expected by the conspirators Presi-
dent Cabrera would be blown to pieces.
We1l-Placed Mine.
Dynamite. it was discovered. had been
the agency of destruction employed, and
it was said that the work was that of
person thoroughly experienced in eXplod-
ing mines.
Investigation showed that the conspira-
tors had dug tunnel from a house. under
the road. and connected explosives placed
therein with an electric battery in the
building. Several persons were executed
for their share in the conspiracy.
President Estrada Cabrera was elected
for the first time September .. 1s.,S. sue
president second time IN March, 1905.
Immediately following his reelection an
attempt was made to kill him, the would
be assassins wOunding him in the leg. and
again. a month later. he was fred at in
the streets of the capital.
