When Detec tire James Hoslck knocked the man unconscious with a lenther after slipping up be hind him, the fuse of the Infernal machine waa automatically ignited, hut Detective Samuel L.

Thrqugh a freak of chance there was so explosion, and Brown continued kicking the sticks of dynamite and jumping on the fuse until he hnd broken the connection and extin gulshed the Are. Manacled to a cot In the receiving hospital, the would-be dynamiter, who gave hla name as Albert Henry Davis, la suffering with several gevere scalp wounds, which police surgeons say are not aerioua.

Police Sergt. R. C. Hllf. who sus pected a practical Joke, asked the mas what be wanted. ‘‘I've got enough dynamite In here to blow ua all Into eternl'/' ” he said, “and I want you to aem for the high set olPetal of the Bontnern Pacific Railroad.

My hand Is fasten ed In this box and If I pull It out- ben*—we all die " A hole had been cut In the hoi and the occupants sew for the first time that the man’s left band was hidden In the box. They began to realise that It uo Joke. Davit then walked Into the ottce of Police Secretary E (* Snlve ly. which ooena Into the private office of Chief Sebastian, -no repeated h's request that the head official of the Southern Pacific be summoned.

While the conversation was In progress several police and newspa per men paaa»d through the room Davl« fit.ally asked that evervbody be kept back. “Curiosity has killed lot* of people,” he said, "and If this thl.ig goes off. there's going to be a whoo 1 lot of them go un quick ” After Davis had held complete po* session of the station for nearlv an bour snd a half, a plan waa device by the detectlvea to tray him. While Secretary Snlvelv carried on the conversation with the maniac. Detective Hoslck tip-toed from the outer room, which was at Davis back, and struck him on tits hea ' with a ‘‘black lack.” The Infernn 1 machine dronped and Detective Brown grabbed It. Davis reached It hla coat pocket and ttoalck hit bin •gain and he tumbled to the floor un conscious. The bottle of nltroglvr erlne and the revolver were In Da vis’ Inside nocket, towards which hf had reached. As Davis had said, his left hand was attached to the mechanism of the Infernal machine and Its with drawal Ignited the fuse, hut the quick work of Detective Brown prevented the sparks from reaching the explo slve. There were sixty half sticks of dv- namlte and an expert said It was 60 per cent, and that there was enougn to blow up a city block. At the receiving hospital, Davis said Tuesday night he “guessed” the fuse was too long, which was the re» son there was no explosion. He said b* was born in Oermany, was 34 years old snd had lived In this coun try fifteen years. He admitted that Davis was not his right name, and ffustlir declined to talk about his OHisens of This Stnte in Washington Wondering Who Will Be Chosen For Various Federal Places. The Washington correspondent of The State says with a good sharp pointed pencil, a clean sheet of pa per, and a long pole that will reach the Juicy fruit up towards the top, there Is nothing more Interesting right now than speculation as to who will get the big fat Jons uder the new Wilson administration when the plur tree shakes In the early spring breezes of 1913. People In the South are wondering what the great landslide of November o, when the G. O. P. was put out oj business Is going to bring them. Will their political stockings be filled with the choicest of dainties in the wa) of federal appointments for distribu tion to the faithful? Will there bt reward for ali who have waited pa- tietly since they witnessed the sau sight of Grover Cleveland leaving the White House, and when will the cut ting of the pie begin? Not only this, but what kind of pie is It? What's Itt flavor and Incident ally, what will bt the emoluments that go along on tbr side. Just a llttla figuring with penci and paper will show what the faith ful Democrats of th<‘ Smth will gei before the year 1913 Is many week old. South Carolina will draw down Juki about $100,000 a year when all th” jobs now held by Republicans ar filled by Democrats A Democrat wl 1 succeed Ernest Cochran as district attorney and will receive $4,000; likewise there will he an assistan district attorney.

In an editorial, printed In the Louisville Courier-Journal, Mr. Watterson says: "Tuesday waa a proud day for Democracy. Nothing was wanting to give It substance* color and effect. The old saying that it never rains but it pours was veri fied. Mr. Tilden once declared that l\ requires a revolution to loosen the i r on grip of the Republicans and to secure a national victory for the De mocrats. Tuesday was a ^revolution. ‘Ground swell,’ exclaimed Hop Price on a memorable occasion. ‘It was an earthquake.’ After me overwhelm ing triumph of the Democratic ticket the most decisive feature of this rev olution is the annihilation of the Re publican party. Its defeat is even greater than that sustained by the old-line whigs in the presidential election of 1 852, when Scott, the whig nominee, carried but four states. The old whig party, be it said, had never any such hold as the mod ern Republican party. That make* the collapse of the latter by contrast the more pregnant and surprising. “The whigs had hopes of the last. The Republicans can have none. But they made bold, to stand against th* world. To-day there is none so poor to do them reverence. With Its ar mor on. instinct with life, it* lines of battle, its flags and trophies yet visible, the G. O. P. sinks as a great wall of stone and iron before a tornado into a heap of shapeless ruins. It will never rise again. "The little that is'left of it the Bull Moose will swallow; even as know-nothingism swallowed the little that was left of the whigs. The great ability of Woodrow Wilson is not de nied by his enemies. No one has questioned his integrity or his cour age. The platform on which he ran is logical, consistent and practicable. There is nothing empiric about It. I'i f-ont nf trm rise certain great problems of government. But under the Democratic plan their solution la possible, noth theoretical.
