EVANS BROS. V-PRICES Smoke and Chew The two powder magazines were ■mail brick buildings on what was formerly a bog on the banks of tin? Concord river and were about 200 feet apart. They contained several tons ot different kinds of powder. When they ■were built they were from one-half to three-quarters of a mile from any habitation, but of late years owners of a poorer class of houses had been pushing out constantly over the marsh until they had come up close to the site of the magazines. In an editorial article the Times says It is as difficult to estimate the real causes of the bloody outburst of fanaticism in Yezd as to gauge those underlying the very similar movement at Klslilneff. In both cases the victims, members of an unpopular religious faith, were accused, In the main unjustly, of political agitation hostile to the government. In both cases the government made no active attempt to save the objects of popular hatred from the fury of the rabble. In both cases subordinates of the government aided and abetted the rioters.

Entombed. Cardinal Gotti's Qualifications. "Moreover, it is unreasonable to attribute too much weight to the personality of the new pope International matters and internal policy are now almost Invariably settled by commissions of cardinals, who certainly under the late l'o]ie Leo have directed their departments just as much as the heads of departments of a civil government direct their departments. Nowadays, to use a slang expression, the pope does not do things 'off his own;' but, whoever may be the pope, it is not likely that he will attempt to make any changes in policy without being careful to take the advice of those commissions which have heretofore directed the policy of the Vatican."
