In the Catholic church tomorrow, the
Feast of All Souls, is observed as a
holy day of obligation. Among the
masses, however, Hallowmas, or Hal
lowe EN-, is an anniversary which
shares with st. Valentines day the
honor of being a superstition of
ancient folk lore, coming down
through the ages from the time when
witches were supposed to hold high
revel, "graveyards yawn and graves
give up their dead" Ancient writers
tell us that the air was full of unquiet
spirits and at the witching hours be-
tween twelve and three O'Clock a. m.
the souls of the dead were allowed to
return to earth where in most cases
they prowled around, bent IN mischief.
Today the small boy and sometimes
boys of larger growth attend to the
misehievous part of it and spirit the
property of unwatchful citizens over
roofs and into most inaccessible places.
Wind up the clock, put out the cat,
and 90 to bed early and the boys will
do the rest. If you have a porch pill
low or chair left on the veranda; a
gate ON its hinges or anything port
able that Young America can get away
with you are lucky and the youngsters
are derelict in their self imposed duty.

WHO Buys THE DYNAMITE?

The dispatches this me ming tell us
that the general managers of the rail
ways in England have been warned
of plans of the militant suffragettes to
place bombs simultaneously in parcels
addressed to the officials in charge of
the principal railway stations of the
country. All in keeping and harmony
with numerous acts already recorded.
Just fifty years ago, while this re-
public was struggling to preserve its
integrity; while factions resorted to
arms against each other, one faction,
opposed to the government as it stood,
secure through sympathy and co
operation of a faction in England a
warship fully equipped and provision
ed for service. This vessel, fitted for
service in a british harbor through
the aid of British subjects, inflicted
such damage to American shipping
that the government Ut Washington
asked the government at London to
pay the losses. When the London gov
IN demurred, President Grant
took such action as to force recogni-
ton of British responsibility, the mat
ter was referred to an international
commission and the British govern
ment was required to pay for damages
inflicted ly an American captain
commanding a vessel supplied by
British subjects. These British sub
jects had not, as far as the record
discloses, previously delied or contra
vented the laws of their own nation
or any other.
We now have in this country the
leader OF the Iaction responsible for
the proposed distribution of bombs to
the principal railway stations of Eng
land, a faction committed by public
proclamation and by acts avowed to a
policy of arson and destruction. This
leader is at liberty by grace Of the
British government, being under sen
tence of penal servitude for acts al
ready committed. She is here by
grace of this government, which pro
fesses friendly relations with the gov
eminent OF which she is a subject.
She is admitted on the strength of her
promise not to commit arson or
preach arson and destruction here.
She is here to solicit sympathy and
money for arson and destruction in
England. She receives $500 for a
single lecture, but says she wants not
a dollar OF it. So the man or the
woman is informed in advance the dol
lar paid in America goes to the arson
and dynamite fund in England. For
the damage wrought and the lives sac
rifced In England through dynamite
bought by dollars contributed in
America England may not have the
same redress in international law that
the United States had in the Alabama
case of fifty years ago. The cases may
not stand alike in international law
but they stand strictly parallel in in
ternational morals. In the first in
stance we ask, who supplied the ship,
in the second who supplied the dyna-
mitef-Goldfeld Tribune.

John Boyle Dies After Short Illness.

John Boyle was taken i'll on Tues

shortly before Mr. Boyle died.

He was united in marriage to Miss
Nanda Becken June %. 1912. At the
time of his death was 81 years of age.
Since MIR. Boyle came to this city
he had made every citizen a warm
friend and everyone always spoke
we'll of John as he did Of others

out of their proper place, and what a
dreadful thing it is going through
life crippled or blinded for want of a
little care and knowledge.
A blasting cap is a copper she'll
about quarter of an inch in
diameter and an inch or two long,
half full of illuminate of mercury.
This illuminate is the most sensitive
and about the most impulsive ex-
plosive in common use. Blasting
caps contain anywhere from Is to 90
grains Of it; primers for firearms
cartridges usually contain not more
than one grain. That's what the
hammer or firing pin of gun or
pistol hits to ignite the powder in the
she'll. A blasting cap is meant to
work the other way. The powder
from the fuse ignites the illuminate in
the blasting cap and it explodes with
terrific force and detonates the
dynamite. The explosion of the
illuminate is so exceedingly quick
that the flying particles of copper
will imbed themselves in iron foot
away. They will blow hole clean
through steel plate one-sixteenth of
an inch thick. A box of caps will
blow a beautiful square hole right
through two.inc oak plank. One
cap will blow a child's hand off with
the utmost certainty and despatch.
Lingg, one of the Chicago anarchists,
committed suicide by biting blast.
ing cap between his teeth.
The point to be remembered is that
when a blasting cap goes off it does
great damage locally. There is no
escaping its effects. Among all the
six hundred or more accidents report
ed from playing with blasting caps.
there are only two or three in which
somebody was not hurt.
Electric blasting caps (fuzes) are as
strong as ordinary blasting caps; but
as the capsule or she'll is sealed up
with a sulphur plug through which
the wires are carried down to the
illuminate, not so many accidents &C.
cur in playing with them. They are
generally dipped in dark -colored wax,
and are not such attractive play
things as the bright copper blasting
caps; but they get there just the
same. - Amateur electricians are
earnestly advised to bury the electric
cap a foot or two in the earth before
trying to pass electric currents through
the wires, and they had better not dc
it then. Don't open it up to see
what's in it Explosive manufacture
ers are not given to imparting trade
secrets promiscuously; but they will
! gladly tell what's in the caps anG
how they are made rather than have
you blow your hands off trying to fine
out for yourself.
Don't carry caps around in your
pockets Don't leave them where
children can get at them Don I

SHE KNEW

1t was young Mrs. Robinson's first
dinner party, and she was suffering
all the usual terrors of the inexperi-
enced hostess.
However, the cook rose to the oc-
casion splendidly, and, so far as the
dinner itself was concerned, Mrs.
Robinson was delighted.
The only fly in the ointment, so to
speak, was Jane. Jane was the new
parlor maid; she was slow, clumsy,
and her waiting was bad. But, in adj
dition to these faults, she insisted on
keeping her mouth wide open.
This so got on Mrs. Robinson's
nerves that at last she exclaimed:
Jane, your mouth is wide open~
Jane withdrew her gaze from the
ceiling, and said, looking down with
a CHEEKY smile:
81 know it is, ma'am; opened it
myself!
