TALK OF THE DAY.

•The amateur photographer, has very taking- ways. Nothing will so soon make a man hot as cold treatment.

When a man "gives himself away" he naturally loses his self-possession. A squirrel—"What are you doing for a living?" Another—"Chestnuts!"

The man who resolves to quit drinking must be in sober earnest. Like many a young man, nature be gins her fall by painting things red.

It is very difficult to find a key to success that will work without a clique. There is no full stop to the furnace in cold weather. It always requires the colon.

An absolute vacuum has never been attained. It can exist only in your mind.

The first people to "elevate the stage" were the highwayman. They were successful in "hoiping it up."

The woman who declares she wouldn't marry the best man on earth often picks out one of the worst ones.

Marry your sweetheart on her birthday, if you can, young man. It will save you money every year in anniversary presents.

If we didn't have any rent to pay, and didn't need to eat anything in this _jvorld, what fine clothes we all might •wear!

Smokeless powder is all right,but the ends of science will not be achieved until some one produces a smokless cigarette. "You seem at home here," remarked a man at the postoffice to the postmaster. "Yes," replied the latter, "this is my stamping ground." "Wives should never conceal anything from tneir husbands," says a writer. But women will persist in having pockets in their dresses.

It is rather late in the season to say it perhaps, but many an angler who fails to get a good mess follows the philosopher's advice and hires a haul.

Mrs. Ciosehall—"Do you know that I've induced Mr. Ciosehall to give up cigars?" Dovetail—"Really? Why, I've known him for ten years and I never saw him give up one yet."

Boston mother—"But, my dear, I would not call him 'Dick.' 'Richard' sounds so much more dignified." Ethel—"True, mamma, but Ipse Dicks it."

Trusts, just now, are being squeezed. This is one reason why, in despite of pessimistic warnings, the average young man continues to put his trust in lovely woman.

Smith—"The City of Paris, I hear, consumes more coal than any other ship." Jones—"That's a mistake." Smith—''What ship beats it, then?"

You cannot always tell by the size of a man's check how rich he is. It isn't what lie draws out of the bank, but ,what he lets stay in, that may interest his creditors.

H- C- FRICK SHOT.

The Carnegie Manager the Victim

of

an Anarchist's Gun.

Intense Excitement Caused by the Crime— Fall Details—The Situation at ...Homestead. i*

Mr. H. 0. Frick, chairman of the Carnegie Steel Company, limited, was shot at 1:45 clock on the 23d, at Homestead, by Alexander Burgman, aged twenty-one, a printer by trade, who says he lives on Forty-second street, New York. He is a Russian Jew. Four bullets were fired, three taking effect. The assassin then used a knife, inflicting one wound with it.

All morning a man of medium height had been calling at Mr. Frick's office. He stated his business was of a private nature. Mr. Frick was too busy to see callers, but finally the man gained admission. No one excepting Mr. Frick and the stranger were in the office at the time. The first bullet entered Mr. Frick's neck, the other two lodged in the back. Dr. Litchfield says that he cannot tell whether the wounds are fatal.

Evidently some words were exchanged between Mr. Frick and the stranger, and as the pistol was displayed Mr. Frick

H. C. FRICK.

turned around the table. This 19 why all the shots took effect in the back and back of the neck.

David Fortnev, the young man who operates the elevator,says that the wouldbe assassin has been in and about the building for six days. Six or eight times he has taken the man up in the elevators. Each time he asked to see Mr. Bosworth, of the Frick company. Fortney says he nevor liked the looks of the man, whom he describes as a Hebrew, with a mean, enealcing look.

The shooting was done with a Hopkins & Allen thirty eight-caliber revolver. Four chambers of it are empty. Burgman said he was a Russian Jew, and had been in this country four years. He came here from New York only a few days ago. He worked, so he said, for the Singer Machine Company. While here he stopped at the Merchants' hotel. "What did you do this for?" asked inspector McKelvy, of the prison. "I guess you know." was the answer.

The excitement over the shooting is intense. The news spread like wild fire,and in a few minutes Fifth avenue, in the vicinity of the Carnegie offices, which are located in the same building as the Associated Press offices, was thronged with an excited crowd. The building was quickly closed and officers stationed at the entrance to prevent the passage of any one.

Indignation was generally expressed at the cowardly crime, and the perpetrator was denounced on all sider and by all classes. As he was escorted to the station a large crowd followed, shouting: "Shoot him!" "Hang him!"etc.

Burgman was quickly taken to the central station and locked up. At first he refused to give his name, but afterward admitted that it was Burgman, and that he came from New York. It is believed that he is an anarchist.

Ex-Shoriff Gray was on the stand when the news reached the court room that Mr. Frick had been shot three times in his office, and the news caused great excitement. Mr. O'Donnell was evidently greatly shocked and said: "Oh, that is terrible!" He was deeply and visibly affected and it was with the jjreatest effort that he could control himsolf.

A dispatch from Homestead says The report of the shooting of Chairman Frick spread like wildfire here. Persons are crowding the bulletin boards in front of the telegraph offices. The leaders deplore it, but many of the strikers are saying: "Served him right. Wish ho was dead," etc. The militia is ready to suppress any outbreak.

When Burgman arrived at the central police station he presented a most desperate appearance, and looked and acted the anarchist he is said to be. His curly hair seemed to be stauding on end and his sallow complexion was bleached to ashen whiteness. He was covered from head to foot with blood and was very much excited, but seemed proud of his deed.

Two physicians were in constant attendance on Mr, Frick after'the shooting. The surgeons extracted the bullet and after full examination gave it as their opinion that he would recover if blood poisoning did' not occur. Mr. Frick acted very bravely, and by closing in on the assassin prevented not only the killing of himself but of Mr. Leishman, his assistant. and of the clerk who had come to his assistance. He is able to continue the direction of all the movements of the mills as in the past.

Burgman, the would-be-murderer,shows no contrition for his crime. Be gloats over the attempt he made and says Frick ought to die. He is sane, but an anarchist of the most radical type. After being placed in the cell it was discovered that ho had two dynamite bombs in his mouth and intended to commit suicide by exploding tbera in his mouth, but the caps ieemed defective and would not explode. Before they could be taken from him he had to be choked until he was black in the face.

DRUMED FROM THE CAMP.

Private Ijams, of K. Comp-ssy, Tenth Regiment, shouted, yesterday afterhoon when the report of the attempted assas-

slnation of Mr. Frick reached th$ provfssional brigade for three cheers for the as* sassin. Colonel Streejtor, from his quarters, heard the incendiary shout. He hurried into camp, and ordered tho regiment to be paraded in double quick time. When his command, was drawn up he recited to the, soldiers the report he had heard. •, "I heard the voice distinctly," the Colonel said. "I think I recognized it, and I want the man who made the statement to advance two paces." The Colonel had recognized Ijam's voice, and he was standing directly in front of the accused when he was talking. Immediately private Ijams- boldly stepped to the front "You offered three cheers for the killing of Mr. Frick, did you .not?" the Colonel asked,

Ijams nodded in the affirmative and was ordered to the guard house. The colone and his staff, including the surgeons, then went to the guard house. The officer ol the day took charge of the criminal, and at the Colonel's orders he was hung up by the thumbs for thirty minutes. The surgeons remained with the unfortunate during all his punishment one of them kept watch on his pulse while another looked after his heart, and at the end of thirty minutes Surgeon Neff ordered him taken down. When released Ijams was limp and apparently unconscious. The surgeons remained with him ah hour, when he was taken to his quarters. The severity of Ijam's punishment was due to his refusal to take back or apologize for the expression. To-day one side of his head wa9 shaved and tho buttons cut from his uniform, of which he was then stripped. He was given a suit of cast off plain clothing, part being a pair of overalls, and was at once drummed out of camp. The proceedings were aproved by General Snowden, Ijams lives at Waynesburg.

NOTES OF THE STRIKE.

The 750 men employed in the Duquesne mills have quit work and declare they will not resume until the Homestead matter shall have been settled and the Amah gam a ted Association recognized. The mill until a few weeks ago had been non-union but at that time the Amalgamated Association had organized p, lodge, and tho strike is backed by that organization.

A dark and most threatened story is in circulation, which causes much adverse comment, though denied by tho advisory committee. Several engineers on freight trains over the Monongahela division o" the Pittsburg, McKeesport & Youghioghenry railroad have been approached and warned by parties unknown that if they carried a pound of steel out of the Munhall yards they would be shot. The engineers have been requested to furnish descriptions of the men conveying the threat and promised that arrests will be made.

The soldiers have been supplanted in the police control of Homestead and special deputy sheriffs given their authority. The military will be subject to the orders of the sheriffs, and will be called into service whenever needed. Except on call of the sheriff's representatives the militia in Homestead are to restrict their operations to looking after their own members, such, for instance, as apprehending absconders from the ranks, if any, and enforcing an order issued prohibiting the national guard from entering saloons. ...

In aNew Light.

Detroit Free Press. "Mister," said a seedy personage to a gentleman going along Woodward avenue, "can I speak with you a minute?"

The gentleman could not well refuse so simple a request, and the seedy one asked him for $10. "Ten dollars!" was the astonished exclamation. "Of course I won't give it to you. "What do jrou want with that much money?" "I want to get a feed with it," responded the tramp, meekly. "You don't want that much money to get something to eat with?" "P'raps not, sir, but the change will come handy." "No doubt of that, but you don't get it." "Well, gimme tea cents then." "No nor I won't give yo'* ten cents either." "You refuse my request for a dime, do you?" said the tramp omniously. "Ephatically I do."

The tramp turned away. "All I've got to say to you," he said sadly, "is that I wouldn't take a dime from a man who didn't have business judgment enough to compromise a claim of $10 at one cent on the dollar for fear I'd be arrested for exercising undue influenca on a person of unsound mind," and he disappeared in the shadows leaving the gentleman bewildered.

He Was Admitted.

New York Press. Col. Robert G. Ingersoll, while recently in Philadelphia on legal business. desired to see some book in the library-of Girard College, It is a peculiarity of this college that it was founded with the proviso' that no clergyman should'ever ~sfet foot in it, so it was: a congenial place for 'the Colonel to go,1 but what was his surprise at being'stopped by an attendant at the outer entrance, who told him he could not enter. Somewhat puzzeled, the Colonel as Iced for a reason, when the attendant indicated his belief on account of the Colonel's smooth-shaven, well rounded and jovial-looking cheeks and face that he might be'a priest. "The devil you say," said the Colonel whereupon the man hastily bightened up and replied: "It's all right, sir you can go in."

One Use for the Onion.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

A very convenient mucilage can be made out of onion juice ^y any one who wishes to use it. A good-sized Spanish onion, after being boiled a short time, will yield, on being pressed, quite a large quantity of very adhesive fluid. This is used quite extensively in various trades for pasting paper on tin or zinc, or even glass, and the tenacity with which it holds would surprise any one on making the first attempt. It is the cheapest and best mucilage for such purposes, and answers just as well as many of the more costly and patent cements. Some of the cements sold by street fakirs at ten cents a bottle consist of nothing but onion juice and water, and the bottle and cork cost a great deal more than the contents.

ANARCHIST PLOT.

The Shooting of Frick Believedto Have Been the Result of' a Conspiracy.

The Police Unearth Accomplices of Berp man—Bergman's Bail Fixed at S14,000. ...

A Pittsburg special received on the 26tb jsays: A sensation second to the assassination of Chairman Frick was caused her« to-day when it became known that th® police had located a nest of Anarchists here as dangerous and as threatening to society as the "reds" of Chicago, who worshiped at the shrine of Spies, Parsons and Lingg. That Alexander Bergmanwas in direct communication with them is now ascertained to a certainty, and to trace his connections with the blatant Herr Most and his followers in New York is the cause of Chief O'Mara's sudden departure yesterday.

The police authorities are convinced to­

Bergman. A reporter made a tour of the locality where tho meeting was reported to be in progress, but failed to discover any one in sympathy with Bergman. No meeting of any character was held in that locality up to a lato hour this evening, or nonethat could be discovered.

CHARGES AGAINST BEHGMAS. Bergman, the Anarchist who attempted to assassinate II. Frick Saturday, will not be permitted to escape with only thepunishment of seven years in prison, provided for a single case of felonious assault. Six informations were made against him I this evening charging him with offensesunder which lie can receive sentences aggregating thirty-three years in the penitentiary. The formal informations were made before Alderman James McMasters, bv Secretary Lovejoy, of the Carnegie

Steel Company, limited, at (i o'clock this evening. Three are for felonious assault and three for entering a building for the purpose of committing a felonious assault.

Two of the informations are for assaultIng Frick and one for the attempt upon the life of Vice-chairman Leishman, who was in the oflico with Mr. Frick at the time. The other three charges are alike, ••xcept that it is allegod that the offenses vere committed on separate dates, tbo

I sites named being July 5, 22and23. Alder man McMasters immediately made out warrants and placed them in the hands of constable Webber, who went through the form of presenting them at tho jail.

BERGMAN'S BAIL $14,000.

The alderman lixed next Saturday as the time for holding the preliminary hearings. Bail was tixed at $5,00Jin each of the cases for assaulting Chairman Frick, and §1,000 in each of the other four charges making $14,( 0 in all. The extreme penalty for felonious assault is seven years, and for entering a building with felonious intent four years. If he gets tho limit he will have thirty-three vears in the penitentiary in which to study upon his vicious theories of nihilism and anarchy. The charge of carrying concealed weapons, upon which another year could be added: may also be preferred.

The New York Herald announced on the 26th, a novel scheme to entertain itsreaders during the present presidential campaign. To the person predicting nearest to the popular plurality of either Harrison or Cleveland it will give a free excursion around the world, the person making the second best prediction a freo trip to London and Paris, and to the third a trip to London.

The first fatal accident that ever occurred in the Cave of the Winds. Niagara Falls, resulted in the death, Sunday afternoon, of Marcus Mason, cashier of tho Investment Trust Company, of Boston. Ho started for a drive, stopping at the Cave of tho Winds, on Goat Island. lusf.ead of going the usual wtfy with a guide, Mason took a short course, slipped from the Hat rocks out into the water, going directly under the falls. Before he could be reached he was again carried by tie current uuder the falls and lost to sight. Hi* body is probably in the whirlpool. J.??"

They have the names of 3 number of persons in New York, Long Branch, Hoboken and other places whom ''hey think were implicated, and telegrams have been sent to have them arrested. Until they are in custody the james will not be made public, as the police fear the publication would defeat the ends of justice. Inspector McKelve said' that they might be able to show that Herr Most was interested in the affair. A number of arrests will probably be made tomorrow. H. B.
