the l'remiet. was spokon of as a "sad
nocossit3" that would "unito the Re

The greatest excitement was catuHel
throughout the country by the news
of the attemptedi assassination, and
by many it was considered an indi.
rect result of the political systemt
which ontconlragod un regul'ita.d olice
seeking. It was also attributed to
the gdirol bet btwoen the so ca:led
"St al warts" and the A dministration
lioputilicans, which parties had orig
inated in the controversy over ap
poinitmonts in the State of New York.
The long struggle betweo life and
deat h of the wounded President is
familiar to everybody. There were
many days when there seemed to ho
every hopo of ultimate recovery, but
a final relapse occurred on Septem.
her 19, with marked symptoms of
blood poisoning and the victim of
Guitotu's bullet finally passed away
iii the presence of members of the
family and the distinguished physi
cials who had been in attendane.
The attempt to end the existence
of Presidont McKinley marks the
hi rd attack upon the nation's head
since the signing of the Declaration
of Indl'pendlence.
PLOT'TlNO AIAINsT MIt. M'KINIFY.
While the presentt is the first actual
attempt mlade upon the life of Presi
dent McKinley, there have twice
been rumors of plots of which he was
to hc the Vie :m1 On Muarch 14, 89),
Il11r\, llell.r, who had served as a
privato ini a New Y< rk regiment dur
mg the civil war, was arrested at
M1.,Itreul, Canad. because of threats
Which he. had ma,e to kill the Presi
deint. Muller declared that. Mr. Mc
K in ley was an enemy of the Germans
nid said he intended to go to Vash
ington and assassinate him. Muller,
it appetred, had been wounded in
the head during the war, and since
hat time had been subject to period
ical fits of insanity. His threats
against the Presilent were not taken
seriously.
On -July 11, 1000, there was pub
lished a report of an alleged plot
which had beon discovered among
Spanish and Cuban conspirators to
uassassinato President McKinley. Ac
cording to the story, the conspirators
had their headquarters in a cigar
store in lower Broadway. An inves
tigation by the authorities was said
to have established the groundless
ness of the rumor.
In monarchial countries attempts
on the life of the ruler have been
squaltly but no more frequent. The
;sassisrt ion of Em peror A lexander
I, of l issia, of t he Empress Eliza
bot h or A ustrir, and of King Hum
ort, of ItalIy, and1( the attempt on
he life of King Edward of Brussels,
when he w~ars yet Prince of WVales,
are0 t he most conspicuous of recent
instances.
The assassination of President CJar
rnot, of France, occurred on June 24,
169'4. Like the attempted killing of
Presiden t McKinley, it occarred at
an exposition. The assassin wvas a
young barker, who had been wvorking
in Cotto, an Italian not very familiar
with the French language. The
tragedy occurred as M. Carniot was
dirivinig in State through the streets
of Lyons as the guest of the city,
wvhich wvas holding an exhibition of
arts, sciences arnd industries.
The presidlenit had ordered away
the special guard provided by
t he prefect of police for his safet y,
and the assassin had no difliculty ir.
leaping from the front rank of the
sp)ect ators to the step of the landau
in which President Clarnot sat. With
a poniard, held concealed in a news
paper, the assassin struck the Chiet
Executive a vicious blow that drove
t he poiniard's point through the Pres.
idenmt's liver. The latter died that
nigtht.
The assassinr shouted, "Vive l'An-i
archie!" and started to flee, but was
strnck and seized by some persons
standling by amnd taken to prison tin
dler a strong escort of police, which
had a struggle to save the prisoner
from being lynched. He was guillo
tined at Lyons on August 16.
Of assassinat.inns of rulers in mon.
archial countries the most recent was
that of King Humbert, of Italy.
which occurred on July 30, 10(.
The King was shot at, Monza, whore
he was in attendance upon a distribu
tion of prizes in connection with ai
gymnastic competition. His mur
(orer was the Anarchist l3resci, who
at one time was a resident of Patter
soii, N. J.
King Humbort had just entered
his carriage with his aide de-caip
when he was struck by three revol
vor shots, fired in quick succession.
One pierced the King's hoart. Ie
fell back and expired in a few min
utes. The assassin was inlmediately
arrested and with some lifhculty was
saved from the fury of the populace.
Capital punishment having Len
abolished in Italy, Bresci was s.m
tencod to solitary im,.risonment for
life. Some time ago lie was reported
to have committed suicide in the
dungoon in which he was contined.
Other reports were that he was killed
by the guards in whose custody he
Was.
Emtpress Elizabeth, of Austria,
was assassinated by an Italian Anar
chist on a quay at Geneva, Switzer
land, on the afternoon of Saturday,
September 10, 18t)8. The Empress,
who had been at the Hotel Beauri
vage for several days, left a few la
dies of her suite, and was walking
from the hotel to the pier of the lake
steaners. She had almost reached
the pier when a min ran up behind
her and plunged a sharp file into her
back.
The Empress was hurriedly car
riod back to the hotel and doctors
were sum,mono:1, but all efforts to
save her life wore unavailing and she
died without regaining consciousness.
Tihe assassin made little or no effort
to escape and was immediately placed
under arrest. He declared that he
had gone to Geneva with the pur
pose of killing the Duc d'Orleans,
but as the latter had already left he
killed the Empress instead. The
assassin'a name was Luigini.
"The assassination of the Emperor
Alexander II, of Russia, in the streets
of St. Petersburg on March 13, 1881,
the same year as the assassination of
Garfield - is of sufficient recent datte
to be still vividly remembered. The
event was unexpected and startlinh,.
It had been more than a year since
the last and most desperate attempt
on his life-the explosion at the
Wimter Palace-had occurred. Be
fore the explosion and before the
Moscow Railway plot the Nihilists
had announced that the Czar had
been doomed to death by their secret
tribunal, but immediately before the
murder none of the customary threats
and proclamations had been issued.
The Emperor had driven in a car
riage to viewv the p)arade of the ma
rine corps. Hie was attended as
usual by his military staff, his ad
jutant. riding with him, and the rest
following the carriage. The numer
ons bodyguard of mounted Cossacks
preceded and surrounded the car
ringe. Suddenly, as the cortege
reached the Catherine Canal, where
some1 laborers were at work removing
snow near the bridge, the Anarchist
Ryssakoff, wvho had pressed to the
fronit among the working mujiks,
throwv the first bomb. It fell behind
the carriage, wounding twvo Cossacks.
The Emperor stepped down from the
carriage andI at that moment a see
ond1 bomb was thrown, which cx
ploded at his feet, the fragments
breaking both his legs and penetratt
ig the abdomen. TIhe Czar breathed
his last two hours afterwvard. Gren
evitsky, the man who threw the fatal
b)omb), perished himself from the ex
plosion. T1here have been many
other attempts at the life of the Ruts
sian Czar, both before and since the
assassination of Alexander II.
soME oTHEaI ATTAcKs.
In Germany there have been sever
al attempts to assassinate the head
of the nation. During 1878 two at
tempts woero made on tihe life of the
Emperor William 11. The first took
place on the afternoon of May 11,
while he was returning from a drive.
The would-be assassin, a youth nam
ed Heinrich Max Hodel, fired two
shots at the Emperor and two more
at the bvstanders. None took effent.
llodel confessed to being a member
of an Anarchist society.
'1'The second attempt was ma1o on
June 2 anmd wits tt.tondocl by more
serious results. As tlho Emperor
was passing through the stroot. Utnter
dont Iindon two shots wore lired from
a house, wounding the ltnporor in
soral places. T1ho atssailant wats
Karl .Edouard Nobt ling, it <etor of
philology. I lo refused to tell t he
niotivo of his act. lodol was exo.
cuted and Nobeling died by his own
hand in it lunatic asylul to which ho
had boon Coiiitted.
Queen Victoria was the object of
no fowor tltnl Hovon attempts, or
feints, to assassinato her. The first
and lost detorminod one was mado
by it man ittmed Edward Oxford, in
18-10. Iln 1812 one John Francis
fired a pistol at her, and later in the
sallo year a mntit namod bean took
aim at hor with a pistol, but did not
succeed in discharging the weapon.
In 189-1 an Irish bricklayer named
Hamilton firedi a pistol att her, but it,
was charged with powder only.
In 185>0 an ox Iieutenant of iHs
sars struck t he Queen withi a cane,
and in 1872 a boy thrust before her,
with one hand, it petition for the ro
lotsO of Feniian prisoners, and with
the other hand presentod an unload
pistol. The last attmpt, on the
Queen was made in 1882, when as
she was passing from it railway train
to her carriage, at Windsor, it do
tetd pi rson named .lodorick M[ac

loan was pronotuncod insane by the
jury before whoim he was tried.

Buffalo, F4. Y., Sept. 9.---William
J. Brytin today telegraphed The
Times as follows:
"Free governments may be over
thrown, but they cannot be reformed
by those who violate the conmnand
ant, "Thou shAlt not kill." Under
a government like ours every wrong
can be remedied by laws and the
laws are in the hands of the people
themnselves. Anarchy can be neither
excused nor tolerated here. The
man who proposes to right a public
wrong by taking the life of a human
being makes himself an outlaw and
cannot consistently appeal to the
protection of the governmont which
he repudiates. Ho invites a return
to it state of barbarism in which each
one nust, at his own risk, defend his
own rights and avenge his own
wvrongs. rThe punishment admninis
teredl to the would be assassin and
to his co-conspirators, if lie has any),
should be such as to warn all in
chined to anarchy that while this is
ano asylum for those wyho love liber
ty, it is an inhospitable platce for
those wvho raise their hands agitinst
atli forums of government.

Coffe i)rinkiIng.
Coffee drinking is a imuch more
modlern custom than tean drinking.
It was first practiced in Arabia
about the middle of the fifteenth
century, wvhen the story goes that
the chief of at company of dervishes
noticed that his goats frisked andl(
platyed atll night long whenever on
the pIreviouls day' ihey had onton of at
shrub growing in the neighborhood.
Finding it ditl4-cult to keep his dis
cills -awaket duiring their evening
devotions, he prepa)ired a beverage of
the loaves or berries of this shrub,
and it p)roved1 50 helpful to the mid
night piety of the dlervishes that.
from that time Coffee camne into use.
