0 DYNAMITE. mm

An jnterview With That Very Numerous Individual, Number Two. From the Brooklyn Eagle. is

After toiling up four pair of stairs in a tutxble down tenement house on M»tt street, an Eagle reporter found himself in front of alow battered door. He knocked live times, and a voitoe within cried "Enter." The reporter pushed the door open and slowly entered the apartment. Seated at an old desk in one corner of the room and smoking a clay pipe was an ugly specimen of the human race. In fr int of him on the desk was a number of twenty-inch dynamite shell?, electric batteries and a few dozen infernal machines. ''Welcome, citizen," said the* man at the desk, I nave been expecting you. Look out! Follow that, chalk line or you may step on a spring that will cause this entire block to be blown into kingdom oome. Only a little device we have for outwitting English detectives in oase of a raid. Don't sit on that chair! It's loaded. Here, take this 'nn$. I believe you wish to interview'tne? Always triad to seetbepress. The pr6ss, sir, between you and I, is the only thing that keeps us fellows out of the poor-house. Don't print that.) You are now, sir, at the head of the center of the great movement aguinst England. Before you sits Number Two."

Reporter—Are you not afraid to give me this information Number Two— No, Sir we are afraid of nothing. Our plans are too well laid. In less than one month parliament, the bouse of peers and the entire royal family will be at onrfeet, begging us to let up. I could tell you of something that is taking place at this moment that would make your h&ir stand on end, but, of course, I am pledged to the strictest secrecy 1 I could not give you a single point without endangering my life.

Reporter—What are your plans for the future? Number Two—I am not supposed to utter a word, but if I had a mind I oould teil"you that we are about to blow up the entire British isles. Stationed along the seacoast of England are a number of our devoted followers. Each man is guarding the entrance of a mine. Sir, England at thi9 moment i« honeycombed with mines. Let me but touch that electric button. Wbonp! Bane! England isblownintoa million fragments and sinks forever beneath the sea. Ob, we fellows mean business. It's a little plan of my own. You might say so if you like.

Reporter—What position does O'Dynamite Rosea hold in your society Number Two—We do not recognize him in any way. I am the head and front of the moveinent, sir, after our great chief number on@. I will tell you what 1 think of O'Dyiiamite Rossa. He is a eas bag, sir a pure bag of gas. Why, sir, I have received more money lor the cause in a week than he has in two months. That's the grand test. The man who can squeeze the most money out of the people is the kingpin in our society every time.

Reporter—But what do you do with this money? NumberTwo—What do we do with it? Do you taink we can blow up the whole of England without capital? I don't propose to be interviewed on that subject, sir. You question mv honor, sir, when you ask me what I do with the sacred dollars intrusted in my care. (Put that in big type, if you like.) Why the society has just given out a contract for the building of the great invincible great sea navy. They are to cost thirty thousand dollars a piece. Then you ask me what I tlo with the money. We intend to jusl sail those boats under the ocean to England, and the next thing you'll hear ot is the total destruction of the entire fle3t of English! ironclads. Why, with our navy such wore will be mere child's play. John Bull's sailors will wish they had never been born. (You can just throw in a few of the names ofthe vessels we are going tp blow up I've forgotten 'em.). After blowing up the English navy we will proceed to fire the mines along, the coast. Up goes the entire island, London and the whole business, I guess after that—

Reporter—Well? Number Two—I have said too much. Don't ask me another question lut if I wanted to let you know a thing or tvo I could. The reporter made bis way down the old stairs deeply impressed with the magnitude ot tne great invincibles party.

A Genuine Tonic.

Iron and calisaya bark in proper combination with the phosphates, have lone been regarded as the purest remedial agent for dyspepsia, general Jebility, and the long train ot ills that follow a weak ened physical natura. Dr. Hatter's Iron Tonic has proven the superior value of such a combination. It is a remedy that has come into general use for the troubles indicated, and no prominent druggist throughout the country is with* oat it, so widespread is the public demand for it. Iron of itself and calisaya bark as well—the two great specifics so much used—are very disagreeable mediicines to take, and physicians often dislike to give them. In Dr. Harter's Tonic they are combined in]a palatable preparation, and one that does away with the need of doctor's prescriptions and doctor's bills for a large class of diseases that afflict the human family.

A Question{of Parks.

To the Editor of the Gazette: Whenever the mercury is abeve 90 in the shade, it is a good time to discuss the matter of a city park. That we need one or two no one will gainsay. In the matter of public parks Terre Haute is far behind other cities. We should at least, have two—the one said to be offered by Mr. Collett, in Barbour's Woods, north of the city. We should have one in the south end.

While the writer would not throw a straw in the way of the Collett park, he believes we should also have one inside the city— not necessarily so large, but more cpu venient to the center ot the city, to which the public can go and spend a few hours of evenings in hot weather.

There are but few chances left of ever having one inside the city and when they areg one, Which will not be long, it will be too late. So wfet is done should not be delayed, but actea upon at once.

While the writer is not particular as to the location of a park inside the city, he believes that one of the most eligible places is in the north part of the "Cruft place."

Owing to the death of our former citizen Gen. Charles Cruft, this beautiful tract ot land will soon be laid off in lots, and no doubt the heirs would dispose of a portion of this tract on fair terms to the city, in which event the whole tract could be platted with some design and taste. When once acquired the city could take the proper time in making the required decorations ana improvements, becoming modern taste. Let us not only talk but act, while1there may he an opportunity to feet a portion of this lasd.

Damages Against the Park. People who imagine the Park Association is coining money must also realize that there is some expense connected with running it. It will be recollected that on the day the park was opened the uncovered seats fell and John Petri a youth, had his hand badly crushed. The park management arranged matters satisfactorily with the boy's mother, but in order to make the matter legal and to avoid any farther trouble proceedings were begun in court this morning to that effect. John Petri, the boy, by his next friend, Christana Petri, filed a suit against the association for damages., The case wil* go on record with a judgment of $100against the association which sum has been agreed upon.
