AFTER ANARCHISTS
Word Reaches Spanish Gov

Plan New Revolt.
MANY ARE UNDER ARREST
american News Servicc)

Madrid, Aug. 21.-The anarchists in
Spain are being rounded up. The in
formation has come to the cabinet
that the notorious leaders in the Sc
cret anarchists societies are planning
4 fresh revolt. Government agents
are using every POSSIBLE means to
capture the Ylc''ers- 1t IS understood
that $50 have b2o nsecre-ly arrested.
The anarcn ISIS are making capital
of the universal d;ssa'isf action with
affairs in Morocco The slownesS of
General Marina in crushing the Mocrs
has given the opportunity which the
radicals sought to infiame the people.
Literature has been circulated and
speeches made denouncing the policy
Of General Marina and the prime min
lister and the working men have again
been summoned to arms. The last of
news from Morocco is another instru-
ment which the anarchists are using
to bring about another Barcelona re-
volt"
Secret meetings of anarchists are
being held throughout Catalonia, the
hotbed Of anarchy and lawlessness in
Spain. The government is alarmed at
the great number of new recruits.
Stringent measures are being taken.

INSECT STINGS.
Dangerous Always and Especially
When One Is Run Down.

Dangerous Always and Especially
When One Is Run Down.
Stings and bites OF insects are ex-
tremeiy dangerous at all times and
especially when the system is not in q
condition TO resist the poison injected.
In many insects the nature Of the
poison has not been ascertained. while
tant nature. in others 1t may contain a
powerful cardiac sedative and deprps-
SAINT. and in still others Organisms in
pure or mixed cultures may be intro-
duced with the sting or bite. Apart
from the natural poison used by in
sects 1t should not he forgotten that
dies and other insects that live on
carrion may easily carry contagion
and inoculate the persons whom they
bite or sting
In the case Of ordinary bites and
stings the chemical antidote is an
alkaline solution. such as u strong So
luton OF bicarbona.e OF soda or pot
ash. which ruunteracts the acid OF the
sting. Suction ut the wound in all
these varieties OF stings and bites will
draw out some of the poison and until
tome aufitoxin treatment can be found
which will prove an antidote to the
bacterial poison introduced little can
be- done beyond stimulating and sup
porting treatment with attention tc

KIDS DAY IN COURT
Judge Converse Lectures to
Youngsters on show
to Behave"
SPANKING IS SUGGESTED

Police court this afternoon resem-
bled Sunday school picnic. Kids of
all ages, sizes and descriptions and for
almost every possible offense that a
boy can be guilty of, appeared before
the stern majesty of the law and lis
tened to a lecture from Judge Con-
verse on How to Behave" with the
greatest awe possible. From tear
up potato vines to assault and battery
cases the boys were jerked up. The
chief offense, however seemed to con-
sist of throwing stones. and the resi-
dents in the north end of the city
whose windows had suffered were
loud in their complaints. But the
boys didn't entirely occupy the spot
light. There were two girls in court,
too. One of them was arrested for as
sault and battery and while the other
one was not arrested it is thought
she had a part in the hair pulling at
fair. Judge Converse after suggesting
that both be severely spanked and put
to bed dismissed the case. Many of
the boys are under 1G years of age and
therefore have to be bound over to
the Juvenile court.

actual happening;
Two women occupied Il compartment

to this man. In whispers that he could
overhear they criticised his costume
his figure and his manner. He. to be
revenged, did a sin -ular thing.

darkness the man kissed the back of

when the train entered tie light again

"They exchanged glances OF suspi-

"'No: of course rot Was it you?
"And neither lady would believe the
others denial, and each in her Utmost
heart believed the other had encour-

and complacent. When finally he rose
to go he said, lifting his hat with a
jocular air:

Resists Attempt Made to De-
termine the State of
His Mind.
WON'T TALK ABOUT WHITE
INFORMS HEAD OF MATTEAWAN
INSTITUTION THAT HIS COUN-
Sell HAS ADVISED HIM TO RE-
MAIN SILENT.
(American News Service)

Matteawan, N. Y. Aug. 21.-Harry
X. Thaw, in the Matteawan asylum.
today defied Dr. Robert E. Lamb. SUI
perintendent of the institution and DR..
Amos T. Baker the assistant superin-
tendent, when they tried to examine
into the state of his mind since his re-
cent insanity hearing at White Plains.
DR.. Baker testified at the White
Plains hearing that Thaw refused to
answer questions about Stanford
White when he was interrogated by
alienists. This attitude the alienist
thought. indicated that Thaw's mind
was unbalanced. The reply invariably
made by him when he was asked
about White was: Il refuse to answer
by advice of counsel"
Bring W Tragedy.
DR.. Lamb and Dr.. Baker visited
Thaw today and after conversing with
him On general topics. proceeded to
bring up the White question again.
Finally it was put to him fatty. Thaw
turned upon the alienists, starred cold
ly. and then said: Il must say what
l have always said. l decline to ans
wer by advice of counsel" After this
he refused to converse with the alien
lists and they had to give up their line
of questioning. Officials at Mattea-
wan still believe that Thaw is insane
because of this persistent refusal to
discuss Stanford White.
One of them said today: "If Thaw
left this institution now he would lose
any very slight hope that might exist
for his recovery. This was shown by
his physical condition while he was at
White Plains. When he left Mattea-
wan he weighed 1873 pounds. When
he returned he weighed 166 pounds
He led somewhat free and easy life
while he was away from here and he
lost weight. Of course he might have
lost weight because of worrying over
his hearing; but worrying would hard
ly cause him to lose II pounds.

home in the Phillips cottage. about a
mile away from the Matteawan insti-
tuion. s@~s ~r- ~ #.-. ,.
