Roses flung from évery side were falling in a soft â€" eascade upon the royal charfot. _ The young Queen, in unfeigned _ delight, was bowing right and left in acknowlâ€" edgment of the deafening _ unending cheers of _ welcome and _ congratulaâ€" tious, and the King, ignoring the mulâ€" titude, was feasting _ his eyes upon the face of his bride, when a bunch of roses, flung from a balcony, fell with a rush as though made of lead in front of the chariot and just behind the mules drawing it. There was a terrific crash, and a little smoke rose in the air. Death and _ consternation in an instant supplanted the _ mirth and rejoicing. A score of men and | women lay dead or mutilated. | There was a moment _ of paralysis! and â€" horror. _ All eyes turned instineâ€" | tively towards the bridal couple and , saw their pale faces amid _ the ruins,‘ gazing â€" pitifully _ at the . terrifying , scemne around them. The first man to | regain his selfâ€"possession _ was the ; Duke of _ Cornachuelos. _ He rushed ; forward, opened the door of the royali eoach, and fairly dragged the King : and Queen to the ground. Others of : the royal escort instantly surrounded' them, and they were lad to another| carriage, The young King speedilyi mastered his emotion and gave all his | attention to his terrified bride. The line of march was quickly taken up to‘ the palace, which was only a quarter | of a mile away. Neither the King: nor Queen was hurt, although how | they escaped seems little short o(i miraculous. The bride made a brave effort _ to eontrol her feelings, but the fearful transition from joy to honror was too much for human nerves to endure and presently she burst into tears. If the truth must be told, the King himself wept in sympathy. Meantime, at the scene of the outrage the first paralysis was succeeded by great confusion. The erowd, when it realized what had hapâ€" pened, became infuriated _ and surged toward the spot intent upon wreaking vengeance upon the author of _ the â€"ls amongst those who have proved the value of Zamâ€"Buk. Writing from Cameron St., Toronto, he says :â€" Gy:nflemen,â€"ARer my great wrestling match with J. Mellor, of Staleyâ€" bridge, at the Crystal Palace, England, for the International Championship, I was covered with cuts and bruises. I applied my favorite baim, Zamâ€"Buk, and in a marvelously short time the abrasions and cuts were healed and I was fit and well again. At another time I had a piece of filesh almost torn completel of my arm above the elbow. I anticipated beini unable to do anything wit{ the arm for a long time, to my delight, however, Zamâ€"Buk closed up the wound in two days. In three days it was covered with new skin, and a few days after there was no trace of the injury. J t c e ce Cl Ne o Mn T o d in o m e c c s it Zamâ€"Buk was introduced to me a few years ago when touring in England bv a celebrated trainer, who said he had known it to do more good for bruises, cuts and abrasions than anz_’known baim. Neither I nor my friends ever thought of going on the mat without Zamâ€"Buk being handy. It is a splendid healer, and I can give it a good name wherever I am. 1 recommend it for cuts, bruises or skin iniuries of a.lg kind, and have no ozjection to you using this statement if you think proper. otgs truly, | As the ;('ul!v Mayo , ing â€" forwa 'wu\'ing her | ple. .

At this writing it is not definitely known how many victims there were. The dead are given as from eight to 12, and the wounded from 20 _ to 30. Some say the bomb was thrown from No. $3 Calle Mayor. Others assert that it came from a top storey window. Still another version is _ that _ two bombs were thrown, one of _ which struck a balcony as _ it fell from above, while _ the second one _ was thrown directly in front of the wheels of the royal carriage. It was a powerâ€" ful engine of destruction, _ being _ of polished steel twoâ€"fifths of an inch thick. _ Its explosion instantly killed two mules, four soldiers, a licutenant, and two women, and beheaded a poâ€" liceman. The passion for revenge was so great among the spectators that they attempted to lynch three French detectives, assuming that they were foreien Anarchists. * Assassin in Custody It is asserted that the assassin was apprehended in the person of a young Catalan, who gives his name _ as Manuel Duran, _ He hired a room in the house from which the bomb was thrown, ning days ago. ‘The confusion is too great to be able to speak posiâ€" tively on this point.

A rumor had already _ reached _ the Palace that the King had been killed, and utter consternation prevailed until the royal carriage came into view, ‘Then arose an hysterical shout of joy. _A few minutes later the King and Queen apâ€" peared handâ€"inâ€"hand on a balcony of the Palace, smiling and bowing in response ho the frantic cheering of their subâ€" | jects. Murderer Kills Himself. It was learned later that the bomb was thrown by an Italian Anarchist, who shot himself.

The bomb, which was concealed in a bouquet, was of polished steel, half a centimetre thick. _ It was thrown from a third floor window. The house is opâ€" posite the Church of the Sacrament and the Captainâ€"General‘s residence. The royal procession had come to a temporary halt, with the royal carriage exactly opposite the house, when the bomb was thrown. ‘The missile fell to the right of the royal carriage, between the hindmost pair of horses and the front pair of wheels. The Duke of Sotomayor, who was ridâ€" ing on the right hand side of the carâ€" riage, was slightly wounded. Several of those killed were standing on the balcony from the house of which the bomb was thrown. _ The exâ€" plosion â€" occurred just as the royal couple were about to enter the palace. The route of the cortege had been diverted from Arsenal street to Mayer street, owing to the popular desire, The procession had just passed through Mayer street, and was about to turn into the esplanade leading to the palace, when an explosion shook the buildings in the vicinity, stunning a large number of peoâ€" vle and throwing the cortege into inexâ€" pa _ One of the injured proved to be a sonâ€"inâ€"law of Premier Morst‘s private secretary. { According to an official statement it is not known whether one or more bombs were thrown. The statement continues that it is impossible to asâ€" certain at present the author of the outrage, although it is known that a Catalonian named Manuel Duran took an apartment in the house from which the bomb was thrown on May 22, payâ€" ing in . advance with a 500 peseta bill, He was well dressed ,of elegant appearâ€" ance, and showed a fondness for flowers. With Corpses and Wreckage Looked Like Battlefield. A Madrid cable: The officials here are beginning to believe that two bombs were thrown at the King and Queen yesâ€" terday, and that the missiles exploded simultaneously with one vivid flash, The scene which followed was like that witâ€" nessed on a battlefield. Corpses, pools of blood and wreckage were strewed upon the ground. The front of the house, 88 Calle Mayer, before which the bomb was thrown, was covered with holes, and blocd dripped from the curtains of a window on the first floor. In the apartâ€" ments ofâ€"the Duke of Abumada, the Marchioness Tolosa and â€" her daughter were killed. One body was jammed in the balcony railing, and was removed with difficulty.

The crowd tried to lynch the prisoners, and the police only prevented it by charging. Numbers of people hurried to the scene to seek news of relatives, but they were not allowed to enter the buildings. The Marâ€" quis of Tolosa, when he heard of the death of his wife, was one of those who arrived and the guards at first refused to admit him. Finally, however, he was allowed to enter and a heartrending scene followed. ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO Fragment of Bomb Struck Decoration on His Breast. A London cable: Another despatch from Madrid says King Alfonso had an even more miraculous escape than genâ€" erally known. A fragment of the bomb struck his breast, but the force was broken by the chain of the Portuguese Order of Santiago, which he was wearâ€" ing. The chain was broken, but it stopâ€" ped a piece of stee!l which might otherâ€" wise have pierced the King‘s breast. King and Quueen Brave. The coolness of the young King was marvellous. On reaching the palace after the explosion he sent adjutants to assist the wounded, and later sent officers among the families of the victims, doing everything possible to console with and assist the sufferers. The Queen Christina, the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Archduke and Archduchess Francis Ferdinand of Ausâ€" tria had already reached the palace and were waiting for the King and Queen with the Infantas. When some time had passed without the royal coach nppear-‘ ing the prince of Wales and the Infanta Theresa, who stood waiting at the palace entrance, became deeply anxious, and they were more disturbed when they sew the empty coach arrive with its bloody horses. But the royal family were finâ€" ally relieved when they saw the King and Queen arrive, and Queen Christina embraced them and uttered _ her deep thankfulness at their escape. The Prinâ€" cess of Wales was solicitons regarding the victims, and asked for information about the fate of the Marchioness Tolosa. It is stated that letters were received in Government quarters last night that this would not be the last attempt, as the band of conspirators had declared its inâ€" tention to keep up the effort. This led to a discussion of the adjournment of some of the main features of the fetes in which the royal family were to be conspicuously present. The tragic event has already cast a deep gloom over the festivities. The people no longer show liveliness and hilarity. There was a magnificent display of fireworks with street singing and dancing last night, but they proceeded with lack of spirit. A pall seems to have fallen over the comâ€" munity. The proximity of the coach of Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia to the royal coach at the time of the explosion led many of the spectators to believe that the attempt had been against his life, but later it was generally accepted that it was directed against the King and Queen. The courage of the latter was greatly admired. She was somewhat overcome with emotion at first, but the King calmed her, saying that it was nothing serious. Later she recovered her selfâ€"possession and bore _ herself well throughout the trying ordeal.. Some of those who saw the young Queen alight from the royal coach just after the exâ€" plosion say that her bridal veil touched the bloody pools on the pavement, and that it bore an impress of the terrible scene as she returned to the palace. The King yesterday evening received the princes and ambassadors, and deâ€" clared that he profoundly regretted the loss of life among his brave soldiers. l The weather has been undoubtedly cool, the warmth not being sufficient to |induce much growth durin gthe past 'week.

Fell Into a Rendering Caldron of Strange Story Told by a Chicago Charity Agent. Chicago, June 4.â€"A father and son fell into a rendering cauldron at stockâ€" yards and were converted into lard and sold to the public. A. M. Simons, for three years agent of the Chicago Bureau of Charities at its stockyards station, is authority for this statement. During the time he was there, eight years ago, two cases came . directly to his notice and he was informed of a third. The cases that came directly under his notice were those of a boy 10 years old and the child‘s father. The boy, who carried his father‘s dinner to him every day, went too near one of the steam caldrons, which are not protected in any way and his father, waiting for him, heard his death scream as he slipped and fell headlong into the scalding steam, carrying his dinner bucket with him. "The father made frantic eccorts to get to the boy and his fellowâ€"workâ€" men did all in their power, but it was ten minutes before the steam could be shut off, and an examination made, and by that time nothing was left of the bov but the bones. A few weeks after the boy‘s death the workmen hear a cry and saw the father fall into the same _ vat, Says Mr. Simons: "There was no special effort made to get him out and when after nearly half an hour, examination was made, there was not a trace of him; even the bones had been dissolved. "The flesh of this man and of his boy went on with the rendered meat in the cauldron and in due time was placed in buckets and sold on _ the market. "No attempt was ever made to clean the cauldron and the foreman of â€" the room probably reasoned that it would be soo much of a loss to throw the entire contents of the cauldron out just because a man had fallen into it." Charlotte, N. C., June 4.â€"Thirteen members of the mob which early on Monday morning lynched John V. Johnâ€" son at Wadesboro, N. C., are in jail at that place without privilege of bail, the charge being murder. There are warrants out for five others who have not yet been taken. The arâ€" rests were made at the village of Morâ€" ven yesterday by several deputies and were accomplished without incident, the men saying that they would have come in and given themselves up if the sherâ€" iff had informed them he had warrants for them. Gov. Glenn, who passed through Charâ€" lotte yesterday after a visit to Wadesâ€" boro, declared that the crime of the lynchers was greater than that charged against the man whom they had put to death, and expressed a determination to see that all known members of the mob are placed on trial. Postal Authorities Stamp "Fraudulent" on the Mail, New York, June 4.â€"Beautiful at twentyâ€"six, worth $75,000, of pleasing disposition and rare temperament, and a widow, was the alluring bait which "Higâ€" gins &, Barton," of 500 Fifth avenue, dangled before the eyes of men matriâ€" monially inclined, through advertiseâ€" ments.
