WiiSUiNOTO.v, April 29. Appropriate
exercises incident to the laying of thi
corner-stone of tho MoMahon Hall oi

noou on the grounds of the Catholic
University. A large orowd of spectators
including many of the most prominent
Catholics in Washington and well
known clergymen, were present, among
them being Cardinal Ulbbons, Arch
bishops Williams, of Boston: Ityan, of
Philadelphia; Corrlgan, of New York,
and Bishops Mees, ot Covington, Ky,,
Chappelle, of Santa Fe, and Vnndovlvor

Paws, April 28. The finding of ex
tenuating circumstances In the case of
Ravachol and Simon, and the acquittal
of their three ossociates la attributed to
pusillanimity on the part of the Jury,
It is asserted by some that, if Ravaohol
bad not chosen to avow his guilt, the
jury would have acquitted him also, an
from first to last they were unable to
conceal the terror which animated them.
Indeed tho Anarchists were treated by
everybody throughout the proceedings
with far more consideration than ordi
nary criminals, and Ravachol seemed to
notice and to appreciate the dread with
which he was regarded.
The general public are greatly disap
pointed wite the verdiot as It Is feared
that It will encourago, Instead of deterr
ing the enemies ot society, and there Is
a growing in favor ot martial law tor a
time, and the suppression of the Anarch
ists by a series of courtmartlalt and
Summary executions, euoh as crushed
the communists twenty years ago.
Very, the restaurant keeper who was
Instrumental in delivering Ravachol to
the police, was In a very low condition
this morning. The amputation of bis
limbs has been attended by a sinking of
vitality that diminished seriously his
chunces of recovery.

Why economize, in order to bridge over the hard;. times ?
There is no actual necessity 'for 'it if you act the prudent part
and make your purchases of Groceries, Canned Goods, Pro
visions, &c, at ' " ,
Because you can buy g-oods there much cheaper than at any
other place, so that what you save in in this respect will make
up the loss of time. Half-time at the collieries need have no
terrors to those who buy at the '
