Bits Of Missile Found in Court
House Same as Those in
Police Station Blast

Boston, March 1.-THE identification
tonight of the second victim Of the
bomb explosion in the Suffolk County
Courthouse yesterday as Daniel j..
Brady, Of this city, and the conclusion
Of experts that the bomb is identical
with the one that partly wrecked the
Harbor police station a few months
ago, deepened the mystery surrounding
the explosion.
The police theory has been that Che
hitherto unidentified man had per-
ished by his own bomb and that Louis
A. Zelinger, janitor had lost his life
in trying 70 take the explosive from
the one who carried It.
Tonight, however, Police Superin-
tendent Crowley SAID that he was con
WINGED that Brady did not place the
bomb. Witnesses have been found by
the police who said an article resem-
bling the Internal machine lay in the
lavatory all day yesterday.
Brady wns a resident of the RoXbury
district and was unmarried. He had
been in ill-health and out of work for
some time. Yesterday morning he left

Copenhagen. March 1.-THE German
view of the Russian revolution, so lar

People Must Be Obeyed,
Weeks Lesson to Rulers
rBy Cable to The Thbunel

London, March 17.-One of the great
est lessons ot the last week has been
that when the people, whether in
tvrannical autocracy or an enlightened
democracy. decide TO speak, their rulers
must obey or go.
In most of the belligerent countries
they spoke last week, and in every case
they commanded an attention varying
with the pitch of their voices. The
Russian miracle so overshadows every
thing that important events in other
countries have been overlooked or not
observed with the proDer consideration
In France General Lyautey tried TO
ignore the peoples representatives, and
he went. In Germany the Social Dem
ocrats elected a Deputy in Potsdam,
which is almost as significant as II the
Democrats elected a Governor of Penn
svlvania. Bethmann-TIollweg promised
wide reforms and concessions to the
people after the war; which shows that
i'm Germany those in authority have
their ears close TO the ground and are
not happy.
Here the Parliamentary debates
showed a desire for information rather
than confidence of the people in their
representatives. Only the policy of As
quith prevents a most unhappy politi-
cal situation. ,
So every day fresh proof is furnished
that this is the peoples war, and that
they are not going to sacrifice their
lives, money and the future without
knowing the why's and wherefores of
everything in which they are vitality

Colors of c. c. N. 7.
Students Fight the Proposed
Change from Traditional
Lavender and Black

High above the roar of debate and
the noise of conflicting resolutions. the
lavender and black banner still float
above the campus Of the College of the
City of New York.
There. the student body swears, it
shall remain. despite the efforts OF
the alumni to haul it down and SUB
stitute the orange, white and blue o.
the city flag as the colors Of the col
lege.
Most of the faculty have Joined with
the graduates i'm urging the change.
and practically the entire number o.
undergraduates is opposing it. Reso-
lutions condemning the proposed
substitution have been adopted by the
student clubs and the Athletic Assocla-
ton.
Changing the colleges colors to
those of the municipality says an
editorial in the current issue Of The
Campus" thE college paper, threatens
the individuali4 Of the institution and
tends 10 reduce it 70 a mere city de-
partment. True it is that fundament-
ally the College of the City Of New
York is a city department; but 10 is
moro and greater than that. 10 is p
collegiate institution, vital force IN
determining the future of the nation,
and, as such, is entitled to an individ-
uality of its own. Tradition has given
the college lavender and black as its
own, and in reverence to that tradition,
which has given the college its great
ness, let US not discard them
Professor Frederick B. Robinson,
leading advocate of the change, said in
reply to this:
although the college SEAL as de-
signed by Professor Anthem, was Off
cially adopted by the authorities. the
college colors were never officially ac-
cepted, but have come into use through
custom.
by adopting the city colors we win
not only distinguish the City College
colors from those of Hunter and New
York University, whose colors are SINH
lar to ours. but we will help bring the
public to realize how closely the work
of the college is linked up with that Of
the city. Moreover, the new colors
have more life than the old lavender
and black"

Miliukoff and Rodzianko.
"This war party has crowded Gar

demonstrated its incapacity to carry
the war into a victory for Russia.
"The mass of the labor.ng classes OF
the Russians in the cities are not ready
TO support a war 10 a finish. This IS
