Bombs Deadly Work.

Paris is truly a city of tragedies.
At a quarter past eight the other
morning there was a terrific bomb eX-
plosion on the Place de Montrouge.
Policemen rushed up, and found a
young man of eighteen, Alfred Hervo,
shrieking with pain, and rolling in
agony on the ground. His face and
hands were covered with blood and
his clothes were burning. Two police
men put the fire out, put Hervo in a
cab, and took him to the nearest hos
pital. The other policemen found the
bomb. It had been. made Of two metal
soap boxes tied together, and filled
with powder and nails. Hervo declared
that he knew nothing about the bomb.
He was on his way to his work, saw
the thing lying on the pavement, and
kicked it of into the gutter. It broke
open, and wondering what the black
stuff in it was, Hervo lit match and
bent down to find out. An explosion
followed.

The Trust

The United States like it's siste,

monopolies have so destroyed the

chant and attempted to define
limitations to the expansion an6

institutions. In several instances
such as the case of the government
versus the Tobacco, Steel and Sugar
Trusts, revisions and notifications of
business policy have been demanded
by decisions rendered in the Supreme
Court. The difficulty of obtainine
Judgment against these complex mon
opolies so strongly intrenched by po-
l1tlcal intrigue and prodigious tinan-
cial foundation, has caused manv to
hail the trusts, as an evil to human
ity and a blight to Individual pros
perity.
The magazines and daily papers
are today filling their columns with
stories of the prosecution and threat
ened prosecutions of these large COM
bines and many are the stories of the
under-hand, nefarious methods en-
ployed to corner the market, to stamp
out genius, to stagnate independence
of ambition and to destroy Individual
success and happiness. AS it's theme,
this Gaumont feature "The Trust"
has chosen the rubber industry and
exposes the unscrupulousness of an
attempted monopoly on this neces-
sary product. The scenes and the
action present in bold unmistakable
manner, the intrigue of the head of
this monopolistic movement in his
avarice to accomplish his abusive
and pernicious goal. only to be
foiled at the apparently triumphant
moment by his intelligent victim.

this new method and on top of that
it has cut the rate down to $4.OO a
