RIOTERS RULE CITY.
Police Of Columbus Disregard Duty
sympathy With Strikers
Efforts Are Made to Dynamite Car
Barns-innocent Strikebreak-
ers Are Arrested.

Columbus, O.-Rioting in a mild form
was resumed early Sunday with the eff
forts of the traction company to move
its cars. The police, while not display
ing any energy in suppressing the dis
order, were especially active in their
treatment of the strikebreakers.
One woman, brought here as cook for
the strikebreakers, was arrested on a
charge of carrying concealed weapons.
She had in her possession a revolver,
but insisted she would not use it unless
necessary to protect her life. She was
subjected to torrents of vile abuse by
the strikers and Hsympathizers as the
police took her to the station with more
ceremony than the occasion called for.
In early morning riots, one man was
shot and five others were badly beaten
by the strikers. In each case the police
arrived too late to do more than arrest
some strikebreakers, whose chief offense
was that they had been spectators or
had been beaten by thugs.
The electric lines between this city
and Dayton are tied up, the company
Withdrawing its car fearing their de.
struction and probable loss of life in at
taeks under cover of darkness. A few
cars were operated in the mornings by
clerks and train dispatehers, but their
experiences on one trip usually sufsieed
for the day.
Following two attempts to dynamite
the carbarns, closer guard was estab
lished around these suburbs. Mayor
Marshall has made no call for the re
turn of troops, but the Fourth Regiment
is held in readiness. The mayor expects
to resume the guarding of cars by the
automobile system, having the police
men who refuse to ride on the ears
drive alongside them in automobiles
thus preserving the dignity of the pc
lice, and affording the cars and theil
patrons a show of protection. The
mayor also hopes that 1000 citizens will
volunteer for guard duty, thus avoiding
the "disgrace" OF calling for troops
The traction company is firm in its
stand, and says it will not yield to the
demands Of the demagogues, even tc
make political capital for the mayor anc
those backing him. The public general
ly is disguised with the actions of the
police, and there is an insistent demand
that every man who had sworn to do
his duty in protecting life and property
and who refused to do either, be imme
diately dismissed from the force.
1t is altogether likely, after the STRIKE
is ended, that the mayor will be forces
by public opinion to take some radica
steps along this line, as the taxpayer
have lost faith in the police force.
Strikers continue their activities, an,
the police were kept busy responding
to riot calls. A woman was hit by
stone and seriously injured while ridini
on an East Side ear. Eight more police
men joined the police mutiny agains
riding on cars. The strike was extend
ed at Springfield, because the compan,
officials refused to reinstate nine out o
thirteen men recently discharged.

BIG WORLDS FAIR BURNS.
Loss at Brussels May Beach 800, 600,
0O0-Nothing Saved.

Brussels-One of the costliest confa-
grations in European history wiped out
the Belgian exposition Sunday night,
entailing an enormous loss, estimated at
500, 100000 So far as known only two
persons are dead and two score injured.
The White City of the worlds fair,
as the Belgians have called their 1910
exposition, early in the evening was a
mass of flames and now is smouldering
ruins. A spark falling into infammable
material in the telegraph building, burst
into flames, which, driven by a high
wind, swept rapidly in all directions.
Soon the Belgian, English and French
sections were destroyed. The fremen
and detachments Of soldiers, called to
the scene, found themselves baffled by
the gale, which carried the burning
embers to all parts of the grounds.
To the left of the main building arose
the picturesque roofs and spires of
" Bruxelles Kermesz," Belgian Coney
Island, with water ehutes, toboggan
slides and scores of side shows.

PLAY ON Apes FEAR
HOW sHREwD KEEPERS MANAGE
UNRULY ANIMAL
cowsrdIce and Curiosity, its Two
Hesk Points, Are Utilized When
Force and Persuasion Alike
Have No Effect.

The superintendent Of a western
geological institution has taught his
employees to manage animals by indi-
rect methods. akin to those by which
nervous children are controlled by
wise parents. A rhinoceros had an abb
scess In its face. The question was.
Did 1t come from a bad tooth. or did
Il only need lanc.ngi The superin-
lendent simply said to the keeper:
Give him new birch broom" The
rhinoceros at once ate 1t, grinding up
The bits with great gusto. "Ahl You
see his teeth are all right" said the
superintendent. and the next day the
abscess was lanced with sharp bill
hook.
The diagnosis was as ingenious as
his method of managing Billy. a re-
fractory chimpanzee. The big ape
needed exercise. This he obtained by
being allowed the run Of the large
monkey house, instead Of remaining
In side room. before the visitors
came. AS he knew he would be caught
and put back into his own compart-
ment at this hour. the ape used to
climb to the top Of the other monkeys
cages and refuse to come down.
AS he could not be tempted with
food. the superintendent appealed tc
his mind by working on what he had
noted to be his weak points. curiosity
and cowardice.
The superintendent went to the
keeper and, touching him gently on
the shoulder. directed his attention IN
mysterious manner to the dark pas
sage underneath the gas pipe that
traverses the house. pretending tc
ture. using an energetic manner. but
saying nothing except words to this
effect: Look outl There he Isl
There he isl" At the same time the
two men would peer into the DARK
place under the gas pipe.
The monkey, on such occasions
would come down to see what the sub
ject of fear and interest was. and
| just then the superintendent and the
keeper in unison would shout: Hes
coming outi He's coming outi" anc
would rush away In the direction Of
Billy's cage. The monkey would dash
for the same place Of safety. which
happened to be the door Of his OWL
house, and sometimes enter 1t before
them.
The monkey has never learned Tx
deception; but Is taken in by Il
whenever the time comes to finish his
mornings airing.-The Sunday Maya

Indianapolis-John II. Walker, presi-

of the Illinois delegates, confessed that
a number of delegates had been offered
international Offices if they would
change their position in regard to the
strike in Illinois. Walker did not name
the men, whom he said had been ap-
preached, nor did he say who made the
offer T. L. Lewis, president of the in
ternational organization OF miners, when
seen, denied any such offer had been
made. The convention voted unani-
mously to indorse the Illinois strike.
