for the King Of Kings as he calls him
self. Rather than have any hard feel
ings over SO small a matter he told
them to go ahead with their parliament
and If they got any fun out Of 1t, he
would be satisfied. But when 1t comes
to heaving explosives at him as he
passes along the street, he draws the
line. He doesn't see any joke IN a dis
gruntled subject hurting bomb at him
and 1t didn't take long for him to say
so.
He was driving through the streets
Of Teheran. Ahead of him was his au-
tomobile, which, for some reason or
other, he was not occupying, perhaps
being for the moment tired of his new
playthtng. Suddenly from across the
street some ungrateful fellow hurled a
bomb at the automobile. The machine
was torn into kindling wood, but even
the chauffeur was not injured. Nobody
could tell just who slung the deadly
missile, so in the hope of hitting the
right man the Shah ordered his body
guard to fire. The result was that
two of his personal attendants, his
royal executioner and two innocent
citizens were killed while a policeman,
a grocer, an officer Of gendarmes and
two private soldiers were badly in
jured
The Shah was pretty mad. He turn
ed on his heel and walked home, refus-
ing to ride in spite Of the entreaties
of his frightened escort. The next day
his majesty came down town and with
a stick he beat the governor Of the
town soundly. Then he called the chief
of police before him and told him if he
permitted any more such nonsense as
bomb hurting he would have him blown
from the mouth of q cannon Since
then corner loafers with bundles under
their arms have been invited to move
on without any hesitation.
Mohammed Ali Mira isn't the kind
Of man the anarchists can scare. They
may succeed In killing him, but they
cannot brighten him. He is So years
old, powerful of build, widely Travelled,
a firm believer in his divine right to
rule and has occupied the throne but
little more than q year.

Raises Nays Standard.

Many French officers now frankly say
that the impressive demonstration given
by the American fleet of its ability to-
keep at sea raises the American navy
to an equality with that of Great Britain
and that if the return journey is as sue
ceSsful as the trip around South Amer
lea has been, the American navy will
have demonstrated that it has no supe-
riors in the world.
The French minister of marine, NJ.
Thomson, is so impressed with the result
of this cruise that he is instructing

proceed to San Francisco and send in

No Boiler Accidents.

The lack of boiler accidents during
the voyage already has called out crit
icism of the contract furnished by the
French navy where trouble in the engine
room is constant and NJ. Thomson has
been interpellated as to why the govern
ment does not use the American type of
boiler which is now being manufactured
in France.
\ salient feature of the cruise which
is attracting attention here is the sue
cess obtained from the American system
of employing line officers in the engine
rooms. This procedure up to the pres
ent time has been regarded with much
skepticism in French naval circles.
