ALLEGED DYNAMITER UNDER ARREST;

Gessler Rosseau, the self-confessed
dynamiter arrested in Philadelphia
with an infernal machine in his pos
session, has been positively identified
as the "G. Rosseau" who on May 9,
1903, sent an infernal machine to the
Cunard line pier In New York for ship
ment on the Umbria.
He is believed to be a dangerous
fanatic, and the New York police are
taking steps to have him brought back
and placed on trial for the Cunard af
fair. An interesting feature of the case is
that there are grounds for believing
that Rosseau was concerned in the
loss of the White Star liner Naronic,
which sailed from Liverpool a dozen
years ago and was never heard of
again. Several hundred men and wom
en were lost with the steamer, and her
disappearance ' has always been
shrouded in mystery. .
In . the house at .. 287 Washington
boulevard, New York, where Rosseau
made the machine sent to the Umbria,
was found a part of a note written
in French on a scrap of newspaper,
which read:
"The destruction of the Naronic was
complete. Mr. Lebrun, who at this
moment has left for Chicago "
The police will pursue the sugges
tion contained in this note to the limit.
They will endeavor to ascertain the
IRASCIBLE RULER OF CHINA.
mpress Dowager Is Sensitive About
Her Supremacy. .
The Chinese empress dowager re
cently severely lectured Yung Luh's
daughter for wearing blue mourning
shoes. The enraged old lady inquired
how she dared to come into her .pres
ence in mourning, and particularly
when her birthday was about to be
celebrated. When the bewildered
young lady explained that she was in
mourning for her father the empress
dowager replied that she was su
preme, and that the mistake must
never happen again. It was on the
occasion of this birthday, by the way,
that the American Bible Society pre
sented to the dowager empress a
sumptuous edition de luxe of the
Bible. The book had silver covers
embossed with bamboo and bird de
signs It was printed on the very
finest paper obtainable, with the big
gest type, and a border' of gold en
circled every page. It was incased in
a casket of solid silver, the whole
weighing ten and a half pounds, and
there was a gold inscription plate on
the cover of the casket.
Kitchener's Military Record.
General Lord Kitchener of Khar
toum, commander in chief of India,
has just entered upon his thirty-fifth
year of army service, he having join
ed the royal engineers as a lieuten
ant on Jan. 4, 1871. He remained ex
actly twelve years a lieutenant, be
ing promoted to a captain Jan. 4, 1883.
From that point his promotion was
somewhat rapid, he passing through
the ranks of major and lieutenant
colonel in little more than five years,
his colonelcy being dated April, 1888.
He became majoir general in 1896,
lieutenant general in December, 1899,
and general in June, 1902. Lord
Kitchener is now in his fifty-fifth
year.
To Secure Brains of Eminent Men.
An attempt is being made to form
a society which shall have for its ob
ject the education of the public to a
realization of the advantages to sci
ence attending the study of the brains
of illustrious personages. A commit
tee, consisting of Dr. Alexander Hrd
licka. Dr. E. A. Spitzka and Prof. B.
G. Wilder, has been appointed for the
purpose of preparing a general form
of brain request, which will hold in
law and not be rendered null by any
action that may be taken by relatives
of the person making the bequest.
whereabouts of Rosseau at the time
the Naronic was lost, and they will
compare his handwriting with the
handwriting in the note. He will be
called on to tell who "Mr. Lebrun" is
and to explain the meaning of the
note.
There is also a theory that Rosseau
is the man who attempted to blow up
the statue of Frederick the Great in
Washington a few days ago.
The machine found in Rosseau's
telescope bag by the Philadelphia po
lice is similar in detail to that sent to
the Umbria. Inside the bag was a box,
which fitted snugly in the case, and
was neatly made. The works, which
were those taken from a clock, were
simple. The box was about eight inch
es deep and 12 by 18 inches long.
The works occupied one side, while
BERNHARDT SOON TO RETIRE?
Tragedienne Expresses Unwillingness
to "Lag Superfluous."
The rumor that has been going
about that Mme. Sarah Bernhardt
contemplates retirement seems to be
well and truly founded. For some
time the actress has been in the habit
of condemning, in private conversa
tion with her friends, the folly of the
player, male or female, but especially
female, who clings to the stage with
quivering and enfeebled hands and
can not see that a new generation of
playgoers want something more for
their money than a great name and
a great reputation chiefly made when
they were in their cradles. It is a
continually haunting fear with Mme.
Bernhardt that she might one day
hear herself, spoken of as "a woman
who really used to be a grand
actress," and not long ago she told
an old friend that she seriously
thought of retiring from the stage in
something like a year's time. .
End of a Famous Boom Town.
The postofllce at Le Beau, in Wal
worth county, has been removed by
the newly appointed postmaster from
the town site to his farm, a half mile
distant. This marks the final down
fall of a town which at one time
hoped to become a metropolis. In the
early 80s Le Beau was the county seat
of Walworth county, and a rival of
Aberdeen.
The enterprising residents of the
town believed that in time it would
become the capital of South Dakota
when the territory should be admit
ted. Then it lost the county seat, the
railroads failed to arrive, the terri
tory was divided into two staites, and
it was at one edge instead of the
center of the commonwealth, and
finally the end came in the removal
of the postoflice to a farmhouse. St.

Bagpipes English Society Fad.
Society people in London are tak
ing to that terrible "musical" instru
ment, the highland bagpipe. It is even
whispered that there is -a fair royal
piper, and that the daughters of Scot
tish nobles are rapidly becoming pro
ficient in the art of skirling the pipes
In the hapless experience of many
visitors to- the north. One alarmed
writer, in noting the new fad, says
that the pipes are trying enough
when manipulated by experts, but
that life will not be worth living
should amateurs take to trying it.
a dry-cell battery was on the other,
with two wires coupled to it. A dial
bore mechanism by which the ex
plosion could be timed. When the
hour for ignition was reached a little
steel arm was automatically moved,
and, connecting with another, formed
a circuit. On one of the wires was at
tached a fulminating cap ready to be
applied to a dynamite cartridge. ,
The box was not loaded, but it was
ready for business. There was a small
box for caps in the valise and a copy
of a Washington newspaper
What Rosseau "proposed "to do with.
the machine has not yet been made
apparent, except that he told the Phil
adelphia police his mission was to rid
the seas of English ships, and that
there was a powerful Irish organiza
tion at his back.
READY FOR AN EMERGENCY.
Habit of the Frontier Second Nature
to Late Senator Shoup.
Ex-Senator Shoup of Idaho, who
died recently, clung close through all
his residence in Washington to one
old frontier precaution that seemed
ingrained. He would never sit with
his, back to a door or an open window,
but always took a seat or stood in a
room where he could command the
entrance and where no one could
come up behind him. In his early
days in the west he had got mixed
up in one or two feuds, but being a
man of the world and quick on his
feet had contrived to come through
unhurt. During those busy and
trauble-filled years he learned the
necessity of caution. He had seen
too many men snuffed out 'from be-'
hind not to recognize the potential
danger, that lay in an unwatched door
or window. The habits of a lifetime
are not easily shaken off, so that even
in the same seclusion of the senate
restaurant Mr. Shoup always ... sat
where he could keep a wary eye on
all who entered the room. .
Whistler's Wit.
In Whistler's student days he was
on one occasion dining with a group
of friends in a Paris restaurant. The
attention of the young men was pres
ently directed toward an English fam
ily near them, of whom the father
was endeavoring in execrable French
to p?an a dinner. Leaning forward.
Whistler, in his most charming man
ner, inquired if he could be of aid.
The stranger drew himself up with a
manner of offense and haughtily re
plied, "I assure you, sir, I can give
my order without assistance."
"Can you, indeed?", quoth Whistler,
airily. "I fancied the contrary just
now, when I heard you desire the
waiter to bring you a pair of stairs."

No Job for Him.
An Ohio man wrote to Elmer Dover,
secretary of the Republican national
committee claiming to have done
great work for Roosevelt in the' cam
paign, and asking for a job. He said
he would like to be "chief tuspido
rian" of the treasury department. Mr.
Dover wrote in reply: T regret to
inform you that there is no such posi
tion as chief cuspidorian of the treas
ury department, although I think
there might very well be. Unfortun
ately, however, , while you have coin
ed a word I can not coin the job."

Denis . Mulvihill, mayor of Bridge
port, Conn.,' who was raised from the
position of a stoker in a sewing ma
chine faetory, which he had. held for
thirty-three 'years, to be chief execu
tive of a city of 82,000 inhabitants, has
prepared a bill to be presented to, the
Connecticut legislature, which will cut
down his salary by one-third. He now
receives $3,000 a year. In explaining
himself, Mr. Mulvihill says:
. "I am not worth that much money.
I have been thinking it over and have
decided the pay is too great. This job
of conducting the city government is
easy. No man is worth $3,000 as mayor
of Bridgeport." - ;
Mayor Mulvihill, whose slogan when
he was first elected a little over three
years, ago was "rugged honesty,"
served for over a quarter of a century
as stoker at $14 a week.
