At the York roomlng house there

being apprehended by any member

merchants in the city have ali been

hat, or who wants to buy nat, and
while these orders have perhaps
caused more or less OF q depression

Chicago, June /. The lannon's bomb
thrower, who has been the nemesis
Of local gamblers for more than a
year, resumed operations after q long
vacation. Three persons were slight
" injured. His latest attempt caused
more destruction than any before, as
he practically wrecked q building In
the downtown district. The entire
front OF the first floor, which was ocs
cupied by q gas and electric light
fixture firm, was blown out.
This is the thirty first of d series Of
similar explosions, but In former In.
stances bombs evidently were not SO
high powered as the one last used.
The object OF the bomb.thrower's at
/ tack was whist club on the fourth
E foor.
The explosions are the result Of war
between two factions OF gamblers. The
absence Of any explosions In the past
two or three months had caused the
police TO believe the thrower had dis
continued his practice.
Az usual, the mysterious throWer
informed the newspapers by telephone
that he had thrown another bomb.

THE EVENING BULLETIN
Short Story Of Successful Daily Newspaper Growth
In Honolulu.

The Bulletin started as newspaper
day.
On February 1, 1882, the firm of J. W.
Robertson a. Co. posted outside their place
of business at the Honolulu Hale on Mer
chant street the first copy of the "Daily
Dul letin" a fac smile of which is given
IN this issue.
The paper was printed on one side only
and the size OF the sheet was ten by fifteen
inches. II will be noted that the advertising
took up large portion of the space OF the
paper. and as for news, the paper covered
the field and was the center OF interest in
the business community.
Mr.. Robertson of J. W. Robertson 4 Co.
is now connected with the business house
of Brewer a Co. and during the days Of the
monarchy held very responsible positions
with King Kalakaua. Among his intimates
and business associates he is still known
as Jimmie Robertson and he is the soul
of good nature.
The Daily Bulletin was a success
from the start despite the sneers to which
its promoter was subjected. Some laughed
at him Tor his audacity In inaugurating any
thing that suggested daily paper They
said the town could not afford anything like
1t; II would satisfy curiosity for while and
then pass into the limbo Of things forgotten.
Mr. Robertson himself now confesses that
he had no idea of inaugurating a regular
newspaper. He had new ideas and sprung
them on the public from time to time to
attract business and the Daily Bulle
tin was one of them.
But the b lletin grew and prospered
The idea was one that took with the people
They enjoyed reading the posted editions so
well that they began to suggest that Mr.
Robertson would be satisfying long felt
want II he would send the copies to readers
anxious to keep in touch with daily events
Only the ads were charged. The paper was
free.
On March l. 1882. just month after it
was started, the j. w. Robertson's ID al y
Bulletin had made such success that
