PARIS is ALARM ED.
Labor Crisis Is Serlous-BIoody Times
Are Feared.

Paris, April 5.-The newspapers of
Paris show genuine alarm this morn
ing at the violent character of the
speeches delivered at the workmen's
meeting held in this city yesterday I'M
der the auspices Of the revolutionary
laborer organizations to formulate
plan of campaign against the govern.
ment. They refer particularly to the
agreement of a large section OF the
state employees to make a common
cause with the trades unionists and
the appointment of secret committee
empowered to call strikes.
Public opinion is rapidly becoming
terrified, the papers declare, at the be-
lief that a bloody instruction is imi-
nent and the evidence of some speak.
ers that the proletariat would neither
fight nor work in the event of a war
is regarded as particularly an alarm
ing prediction.

PRoDS BIG GAME HUNTER.
Says Any Man Who Shoots Elephant
Has a Depraved Mind.

Fitchburg, Mass, April THAT a
man who would shoot an elephant
must have a depraved mind was the
declaration of General Nelson A. Miles
today. The general is visiting his
brother, Daniel G. Miles.
Il never could see," said the gen
eral, why a man wants to shoot ele.
plants, zebras, antelopes, and other
animals willfully. / believe that a
man who shoots an elephant must
have depraved mind. Elephants are
so useful to us, you know, for they
are put to work at so many things.
1T is really too bad to kill them. The
British government has recently
passed a law setting apart large
tract of land in Africa for reservation
purposes and for the protection of
elephants and other animals that live
in that section. It's a pity that
man should find enjoyment in shooting
at such animals to kill them"

pcitement here. Norfolk saloon men
said that the law would kill so much
of the transient business that num-
her of saloons would be forced out of

Presence of Gardner in Belle Fourche
Results in Renewal of Rumors.
The western trip of Vice President
Gardner has resulted in a revival Of
the coast extension rumors, which
have long been denied by railroad Of
ficials.
A news dispatch from Belle Fourche,
S. T., is as follows:
Definite announcement of the plans
of the Chicago and Northwestern rail-
road for extending it's line westward
to the Pacific coast may shortly be
expected. A new impetus to the
rumors current for some time was
given by the presence here this week
of William A. Gardner, vice presi-
dent of the road, and also the director
of the operating department of the
system. Mr.. Gardner came here al
most unannounced and made a care
full inspection of the situation. He
was noncommittal on the future policy
of the company, but from the investi-
CATION he carried on railroad men here
claim to foresee a decision that the
road will build westward from this
point, as has long been anticipated.
AS long ago as last summer contrac-
tors in the employ of the road COM
menced laying in a stock of ties at
this point, and many other indications
seem to point to the fact that the ex-
tension will be made from this point.
Belle Fourche has long been known as
the largest single shipping point for
cattle in the country, and a road west
from here would continue to tap rich
and undeveloped land.

Che Career Of
Gnrico CaruSo
How Neapolitan Mechanics Son Became
the Worlds Greatest Tenor-Introductory
Sketch of the Author of Talks on Singing
By GEORGE II. PICARD
By GEORGE H. PICARD

va NRICo CARUso enjoys the
reputation Of being the great
H. est tenor since Italo Cam.
panini. The latter was the
legitimate successor of Brignoli, an
artist whose wonderful singing made
his uncouth stage presence a matter of
little moment. Carusos voice at Its
best recalls Drignoli to the veteran
opera habitue. 1t possesses something
of the dead tenor's sweetness and
clarity In the upper register, but 1t
lacks the delicacy and artistic finish
of Campanini's supreme effort, al
though 1t is vastly more magnetic and
thrill inspiring.
That Caruso Is regarded as the fore
most living tenor is made good by the
fact that he is the highest priced male
artist in the world. Whenever and
wherever he sings multitudes flock to
hear him, and no one goes away unsat-
lsfied. He is constantly the recipient
of ovations which demonstrate the
power of his minstrelsy, and his lack
Of especial physical attractiveness is
no bar to the witchery of his voice.
Caruso is Neapolitan and Is now
thirty-fve years of age. Unlike so
many great Italian tenors, he is not of
peasant parentage. His father was
skilled mechanic who had been put In
charge Of the warehouses Of large
banking and importing concern. AS a
lad Enrico used to frequent the docks
in the vicinity of these warehouses and
became an expert swimmer at very
early age. In those halcyon days his
