A Romance of Anarchism.

«► — A BTEANGE GAR BEE.

Small dorabt exists among those who hate followed the progress of the Anar-1 elite movement daring recent yeare, S lay! the Daily Bstpress, that one of the | iimtigatorg of the attempt on Mr; M'K.inkf'B life wai .Teresa Bra^moli, ; better known perhaps as La Bella *j?erei», friend »nd cowirade of JBresoi ; and fttalateitft, and * worai'i of em- j galftf beauty and m^gn-tio influence, who for a period of eight years had ttt&da London her home.

li will be remembered that l»«rt year, \ whea tbe awful murder of the Italian j King startled the world, the nmt-j ionght by pressmen of London and j New York was art individual known Sn the " brotherhood " as " Oonnt" j Enrico Malatesta, the leader of the Italian Anardmtaj Me. wm . reported to hay« bepn in 4mefio» when the plot «c mardor Kins; Hambert was hatched, and that tie was actually in tonch wMi S sei, the feather worker ; Qtiintiva It, the barber | and Laaa, the navvy, three of the secret agents who came to Europe from New York with La Bella Teresa and, Breed, the maffiprer of the Italian Kin?, on M*y 18 last year. Bread aad La Bella Ter^a were the only two acquainted with the foal schftnv which was intended to shake tr c dynasties of Europ > hy a snficcesion ®f txmrdera of Kingatand statftpmen.

When the Ga®coyoe reacbed Knrcps La Bell* Teresa aad Bre-ci went (o Paris, ftod to disarm suspicion lived in the same hotel. The other three con splrafors, Sasbi, Q«intivalle and Latu, took ap their abode in the workmen's <|aarter« of the off j » Unlike Emmt Ooldman, who is t mere creature of hysteria, La Bells Tcreia has no love for theatrical display and only oq me occasions takes to the platform. She is nervonily energetic, and her 700 th »od danaling besti y fus einate desperate men to do her bidding. She is of medium height and willow?, with a face Roeaetti-creatod, without a iiard line, and with a profusion of brown wary hair. Intellectually, ehe is a wonderful woman, speaking fluently three language?.

In 1895 Teresa Ighina (b.pr real name is BrugraoH—she has adopted her ancle's surname) went to Florence as a delegate to the Italian Congress, accompanied by Malatests. She gained an international reputation by charging the Socialists with encouraging Trad<> Unionism, and declared the followers of Earl Marx were the enemies of freedom. because they favottled a form of Government, Her startling words to the delegate! were — "Emancipate yourselves by organising force to meet force, and you shall be free ! Use the knife!"

Three years later this terrible woman and Mftlatesta instigated the peasantry ot Northern Italy and Spain to commit crimps as a protect against the bread famine. MalateaU was arrested by the Italian Government, but not before the I'iotß had occurred at A&cona and in 50 other tuwiiP, The ring leaders were sent to prison, and a mild form of in quisflion exacted confesiions. After the bread riots La Bella Te' esa went to Chicago, enlisting violent mm to avenge iho women and children who bad beea shot in Italy.

While visiting the centres of indi vidualistic Anarchist?, La Bella Teresa made capital out of the famous America wheat corner, which was engineered by jFOung Leiter, Lord Curzon'a brother-in law

After this visit to America and the murder of King Humbert which fol lowed, Teresa stayed some time in London. Mer last public appearance in the Metropo is dates three months ago, when she visited a foreign Olub in Soho—ona of the lowest of immoral dens'. The place is watched by the English policp, and foreign agents fre quent it to keep the Governments ac quainted with the doings of certain desperadoes. It is the rendezvous of n>any dangerous characters, who have been-expelled from their own cottntry for political offences It was to this house La Belk Teresa went on tha eve of her recent depar* tare to Amßricß, and gave an address to -tb« members of the ' brotherhood,' In the course of b^r speech she said :—

' Nihilists, Fenians, Anarchists, or whatever you call yourselves, your obj-ct ia the same You can only evoke the terrorism <tf assassination by striking at the lives of rulers and ■tateemen, whether King, Emperor, Oz%r, or Republican President. You do not want the slow evolution of Government to unwind ; it is too long, »nd delays am dangerous'

English Spelling.

In the life of Bt George Harley, there h a paisage in which he speaks half in earnest about the needlessness of duplicated consonants. The passage runs:

" Few persons are -mware that each full-sized copy of the newspaper which they so gladly welcome to their break fast table in the morning contains more than three thousand doubled b's 8 c's, d'«r, IV, g'B, &c, and that It daily entails on their visual organs the necessity ot deciphering exactly one half—that is to say, more than fifteen thousand—ab solutely unneeesßary letters of the alp habet, which not only _ take njpj a quantity of valuable space in the jour nal, brat mast have consumed much time both in writing and printing. About £10,000 a year would be saved by their abolition. . . . Many of the present geneiation will remember that when at school they were taught to spell wagon wish two g's, while It is now spelt with only one j • fulfil,'' ekiU fal,' »n^ l wilful' each with four IV, and •dulneea 1 with two. £ ow, however, each of these words has had its l's diminished to one half* The dimi nution, too, came about 'gradually. "First, only one of the I'a was quietly dropped out, and we had fulfill ekilfull, and wilfull, and,, m k seen, without any regard being paid to the order in whicb the dinjiuufcioiii of the 1 w«b made. 1 hen after a abort time mtr had vanished. Time, the executioner s again stepped in with his pruning hook and silently cut off the third i, so that the words are now reduced to £v iil, skiiful, and wilful."

t*e the flight of th« swiftest bird is tto prog« ress of a hacking cough •^ into consumption. First a cold, then a settled .cough, then slow fever, night sweats, and hemorrhages, Doa't neglect your cough. Stop it at ones and drive away all thought of consumption. Begin as early as possi ble—the sooner the better—to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral the most effective remedy for coughs of every kind and in every stage. One of the most annoying coughs is a throat cough, ■where you have that constant tickling in your throat. It comes on worse at night, keeps you awake, and makes, you have that smothor*d feeling in the chest. It hardly seems possible what one dose of Cherry Pectoral will do for this kind of a cough, it brings such marked relief. . Put up in large and small bottles. When the cough gets down deep in the chest and the lungs are painful, put one of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral Plasters directly over the tender lung. It will draw out all the soreness. Prepared ly Dr. J.
