K0THSCH1LD SAVED AGAIN. in An Anarchist Almost Succeeds Blowing Up the Hank. Paris, Sept. 5. M. Rothschild's banking house in this city was tho scene to day of another Nihilistic attempt. At 3:20 o'clock a man entered the bank from the lla La Fitte. In the vestibule a detective who was on guard there saw the stranger tryiDg to light the fuse of a bomb which he carried with a cig arette. The ashes on the cigarette prevented tho ready ignition of the fuse, and the man seeing that he was observed threw the bomb upon the carpeted floor. The weapon did not explode and the man was arrest ed. When he was taken to the police office he boldly avowed him self an Anarchist. According to another account, when the man with the bomb was arrested he was ascending the first strir case leading to the banking office, and had lighted a match. When he saw that he had been de tected he threw the bomb to the ground and run out into tho street, being pursued by the bank detective. When overtaken, the desperate man turned suddenly and confronted bis pursuer with a razor. The officer warded off a blow which was aimed at him and seized the man by the wrist. A crowd assembled, attract ed by the struggle, and another policeman coming up the two officers susceeded in overpowering the would be murderer. At the police office the man was examined by Inspector Carnette, acting in the absence of Commissary Guerin. He obstinately refused to talk and was taken to the central prison. There he became more com municative and openly professed Anarchistic theories, declaring he intended the bomb as an anarchist demonstration. The recently explo sive letter received at De Roths child's bank, and which cost Baron Alphonse De Rothschild's confiden tial clerk an eye, the man said was only a hoax, to day's attempt being expected to have a salutary effect. The man told Commissary Querin he made the bomb himself. He ex pressed regret that he had not taken enough precautions to insure an ex plosion. He had tried to light the fuse with a cigarette, but the ashes upon the latter interfered. The ar rival of the detective had compelled him to throw the bomb hastily, and by that act he had not expected to explode it. He said the bomb con tained chloride of potassium. "How ever, lie added, "you are cunning; open it and satisfy yourself on that point.' When taken to the prefecture he refused to give hi3 name or occupa tion. lie was dressed in dark clothes and wore a shirt with red stripes. The bomb was made of a half pound of cocoa tin, tied with a string and wound about with wire. A round hole, a quarter of an inch in size, was in the side of the box and from this fell a whitish powder The culprit was miserably dressed and a razor and bruBh were found upon him, so it is supposed he is a barber's assistant. He refused to give any pretext for the attempted outrage. His family lived a long time at Moutmarte, where active in quiries are proceeding. Upon being further examined he said the bomb was composed of chloride of potassium and blasting powder and contained no projectile. His act, he Baid, was a protest against the proceedings of tne bank ers. He had traveled throughout France, never remaining long in the game place, in order not to awaken suspicion. He professed a contempt for work since every one lives at the expense of society. The news of the outrage spread rapidly in Paris, and many fear that it por tends a renewal of an active Anar chistic campaign.

Payne, the famous Fremont county millionaire, who died a few days ago, was a most interesting and original character. He was a life long friend of Jefferson Davis, and when the latter was elected Presi dent of the Southern Confederacy he appointed Payne Secretary of the Interior, but he never seryed in that capacity. On the contrary he came north and settled in Fremont county, where he has since amassed a for tune estimated at from 81,000,000 to 83,000,000. He owned land in every state in the Union except one, though the most of his real tstate was in Fremont county, where he had Kj.OOO acres. When Dvis died he was called to his home in Missis sippi to preach his funeral sermon. Payne's will,just filed for probi'.e, shows his money bequesU to be $228,000, aside from his real estate. Besides making liberal provision for his widow, children, relatives and servants, he bequeathed to Charles S. II..." try of the Firebrand, Shen andoah, and his school, 85,000; M. E. church (South) loan fund board of church extension, 820,000; M. E. church (South) on the home place, thirty acres, so long a9 used for church purposes; Central college.

Massie, has furnished the Kansas City Journal with the following fur ther particulars of his wife's expert ence with a Chicago highwayman, an account of which the Review con tained yesterday: "The occurrence," says Mr. Mas sie. was in the middle of the after noon and on one of the leading residence streets. The man followed Mrs. Massie several blocks and at a moment when there were no other pedestrians near, overtook her and attempted to snatch her purse. She returned with a blow of her umbrella. The thief then grabbed her hand and attempted to take the diamonds from her ears. She released herself from his grasp and took refuge in the doorway of an adjacent residence, and the would-robber took to his heels. Mrs. Massie suffered a sprain of the wrist, but otherwise was not injured. She hae been in Chicago a week looking after the sale of sever al songs of her own composition, which have recently attracted con siderable attention. "Mr. Massie says he sent Mrs Massie a postoffice order a few days ago, and he thinks the thief saw her cash the order and followed her un til he saw an opportunity to take her purse. Now, if Mrs. Massie had only cap tured that robber, then worked all tne incidents 01 tne allair into a sons set to "catchy" music, she would have been a real heroine as well as a great composer very shortly thereafter. Nothing suc ceeds like success, you know. Ladies, however, should select tame burglars to practice on. Mrs. Mas sie exhibited rare pluck in "holding her own" as she did. Review.

Both places were wiped out of existence by a cloudburst, which oc curred in the San Bias mountains, back of the towns. The water rushed down the valley, iu a tremen dous torrent, sweeping everything before it. It covered the ground to a depth of six feet and the flood was from six to nice miles wide. The business houses and resi dences of the two towns were built of adobe and thev melted awav be fore the torrent of water like so much sand.
