In the May number of tli3 Amekican Maoazink there will bo a remarkable dii-cusbion of a question of vital import ance to every American citizen. Two years huvc passed since the brave police men of Chicago were cruilly murdered by the Anarchists. Two years, and neither the United States nor any single Slate has enacted a law even looking to tha prevention of a recurrence of the horrilc deed. The people seem to have sett'ed Into a sense ef security and safety not warranted by the circumstances. During these two years the Anarchists have not been uls. Secretly, stealthily, they have spread their pernicious doc trines, formed branches of their baneful order, and laid their plans with the ut most care to prevent another failure. Their leaders are not ignorant men. They are fanatics with brains the most d inge'ous class in the community. Many of them believe in their mission and are willing to die for victory. They have counted the cost and will fire the mines they .'iave dug under pur cities, even if they themselves are involved in the com mon ruin. Iu this article the infernal plottings of these men will be brought to light. Th' lr schemes will be laid bare. The author, with terse and powerful diction, describes scenes that will cause many a heart to throb and blanch many a face. lie shows U3 that wc are treading ou a vo'cano whose hidden fires may at any moment break out and overwhelm us. lie forces upon the reader a reality most awful to oontemplate and too frightful to endure. If not already too late, the author would by this article create a public sentiment that will compel our rulers to make fcuch laws as are needed for the protection of our homes and families, for the very existence of our social sys tem. It is a powerful and timely argu ment, exposure and appeal. God grant it may not pass unheeded nor be too late to accomplish its object. The author is a prominent army officer wlio is well known in literary, military and social circles, and many will recog nize the writings of oue whose pn is as powerful as his sword. A SINGULAR PROP1IECN. The present is the fifth year of modern iinit.8 in which the aggregate of the fig ures is twenty-five, an I there will be but live more years in which such a combina tion is possible prior to the year 2501). Probably but few have ever heard of the old prophecy, which runs as follows. la eveiy future year of our Lord. V Ken the hhih f the figure I twenty-five, Pome warlike klntriiom will draw ttie sword, IJut pceelul nation- In peace will thrive. Studeuls of modern history will r adi ly recall how fai hfully this prophecy has been fulfilled in the four previous years to which it applied. In 1CU9 Kusi:i, Denmark aud Poland formed the coalition Sweden, which in augurated the great war that ended in the disastrous defeat of Charles XII. at Pultowa. The year 1789 will ever be memorable on account of the breaking out of the French revolution. The year of our Lord 17SS witnessed the campaigne of Bonaparte in Egypt and the formation of the second European coalition against France. - In 1879 war broke out bet ween England and Afghanistan, followed by the invas ion of the latter country by British troops. In what matter the prediction is to be verified in 1888 remains yet to be seen, but the present condition of Europe seeuis to promise an abundant fulfilment of the prophecy. Philadelphi Inquirer. On the 2Sth of the present month a dynamite gunboat to be called the York town will be launched. It is intended for the United States navy and from the descriptions given of it, it will be the most dreadful engine of destruction known to modern nayal wartare. Uncle Sam is evidently prepairing himself so he ca'i suap his fingers in the face of the measly sultan of Morocco and his 0,000 wives, for he is to undertake at the Brooklyn navy-yard the construction on his own account of another first-class armored cruiser at a cost, excluding ar menfs, of $2,500,000. This one will be named Main3. The demand tor the admitting of the south half of Dakota into the Union as a state, is based upon the ground that it h is a larger population than any new strte eyer had before on being ad mitted, the request is reasonable, and nothing but partisan bigaty prevents the request from being properly complied with. Tue Cubans arc greatly excited over the proclomation of the governor general placing several provinces under martial law. A strong fraction favors a rebellion and it is probable tltat steps will be taken to throw off the Spanish yoke and appeal to the United States for protection. A swallow does not make it spring, but a sjtnple application of a good remc dy will give immediate relief.

The exhausted nnd drowsy feelings, common in spring time, indicate an im pure and sluggish condition of the blood which may be remedied by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It is the most power ful, and, at the same time, most economi cal blood purifier known. Another Victim. 'Who is that ugly looking woman over yonder?'' "That is my wife, sir." "Indeed! Here is my card, sirI'm the most successful divorce lawyer in the city." Town Topics. In consequence of winter diet and lack of open air exercise, the whole physical mechanism becomes impaired. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the proper remedy, in the spring of the year, to strengthen the ap petite, invigorate the system, and expel all impurities from the blood.

The modes of death's approach arc va rious, and statistics show conclusively that more persons die from disease of the throat and lungs than any other. It is probable that everyone, without excep tion, receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system and where these germs fall upon suitable sod they start iuto life and develop, at first slowly and is shown by a slight tickling sensation in the throat and if allowed to continue their ravages they extend to the lungs produc ing Consumption and to the head, caus ing Catarrh. .Now all this is dangerous and if allowed to continue will in time cause death. At the onset you must act with promptness; allowing a cold to go without attention is dangerous and may loose you your life. As soon as you feel that something is wrong w itli your throat, lungs or nostrils, obtain a bottle of Bos shec's German Syrup. It will give you immediate relief. $500 Reward.

Wlifre linnk 'ote Are Printed. The president of a large bank note com pany iu this city recently said to the writer that it was absolutely impossibly for any of his subordinates to steal any thing without being detected at onte. Every imaginable safeguard is used to prevent the company's suffering through tho dishonesty of its employes, in print ing bank notes, or stamps, or bonds, or tickets thu paper to be used is carefully measured beforehand by oneof the higher officials. Only enough to make the num ber ordered is tziven to the workmen, and they are held responsible for it thereafter. If a single stamp or ticket is lo.-t the doors are locked and nobody is allowed to leave the workshop until it is found or satis factorily accounted for. With bank notes and bonds extra pre cautions are used, and they arc counted after poing through each process. If a. mistake occurs 'all have to be done over, nnd the first batch is destroyed. If one is lost and cannuL be recovered nil are de stroyed, and n new series printed iu en tirely different colors. Au instance of this kind occurred sev eral years ago. A batik note company iu thid city printed sonic bonds on contract for the Virginia government. One pack age was Htoleu while they were being transported to the treasurer. Of course none of them had been signed, and they were therefore not valid; but jdl liie rest were at onco destroyed, and a new set in different colors were ordered. New York Sun.

The biaiv.s are taken from the branches, to which they attach themselves iu high tide. Here is a Mandingo billed? fare which lteade, the explorer, leaves on record for the amusement of tiie curious: "Then followed,' he says, "gazelle cut lets a l;i pappillote; two small monkeys, served cross legged and with liver sauco on toast; stewed iguana, which was much admired; a dish of roasted crocodile's eggs; some slices of smoked elephant (from the interior); a few agreeable plates of fried locusts, land crabs and other crustaca?; the breasts of mermaids, or manatee, the grand bonne bouche of the repast; some boiled alligator and some hippotamus stakes." While this dinner does not equal lu courses some of tho elaborate feasts of civilized lands, cer tainly no one will say it lacked variety. Lotus seeds form one of the commonest dishes known to the Barri of Central Africa. Tho pods when gathered are bored and strung on reeds and hung in the sun for drying, after which they get to the table. Along tho Upper Nils another wing of the Bnrri tribe bleed their cattle monthly and cook the blood with their flour and rneal. They esteem this a luxury and the dish is eaten with great relish. New York Star. Doves ns Military Messengers. It seems likely that carrier pigeons will play an important part in the next great European war. The Frenrh minister of war has jnst given orders for tho organi zation or' the many carrier pigeon stations throughout the country upon a more sat isfactory footing, aud considerable im portance is attached to the perfecting of these arrangements. In addition to fifteen of these stations, there are in various parts of France 'j!I0 pigeon flying societies, owning among thorn 150,000 "homers." Each of these societies has a military or ganization, nnd in case of w7ar all tho pigeons belonging to them would bo at the service of the intelligence depart ment. German j- possesses about tho same number of carrier pigeon stations, and there are 350 societies, w-ith 5(),00(. pigeons. In Italy pigeons are actually in use for conveying dis;p;)tches between the war office in liouic and the garrisons in Sicily an 1 Sardinia, llussia is too cold for the carrier pigeons. The only birds which bring tidings of battle iu Russia are the buzzards. New "brk Star. Australian 3Iouud. TSuildcrs. In Australia and the neighboring isl ands are seen many large mounds of earth, which were formerly supposed to be the tombs of departed natives. These remarkable tumttli reaching as much as fifteen feet in perpendicular height and sixty feet in circumference at the base are not the work of man, however, but are now known to be the incubators built by the jungle fowl and other species of the small family of llegapodidae, or great footed birds. Pinch of these great piles consists of fallen leaves, grasses, etc., which tho birds deposit in place by throwing backward with one foot. Though, the mounds are usually in dense shade, the decaying vegetable matter lias been found to raise the temperature at the cen ter ns high as C5 degs. The eggs are carefully placed with the larger cud up, about twelve inches apart, and are cov, ered to a depth of at least two or three feet. Arkansaw Traveler, Tlio Ants and tho Cyclone. It is stated that about a century since there appeared on the island of Grenada number les3 colonies of ants. No one knew whence they came, but they so multiplied that they became fatal to the sugar cane, and as that was the prin cipal industry the gravest results were apprehended. All expedients failed to dislodge them, and the government, in 1778, offered a reward of $100,000 for any invention to destroy them. In 1780 nature came to their relief in the way of a terrible cyclone and rainfall, which blew down what cane wa3 standing, drowned out the ants, and a new prosperity followed, Toledo Blade. Tho Nineteenth. Century. We live in a different world from that of our fathers. No other race has ever known its like. It ha.s witnessed trans formations surpassing the greatest of miracles. It has seen cities spring up on the prairies and become magnificent cen ters of business and population in less than a score of years. It has seen one of the greatest cities of the world, the rival of the oldest and grandest centers of foreign wealth, rise iu its might at the ocean gateway of the Empire state.
