Inmates of the St. Cecilia convent on East 106th street, were thrown Into panic early today by the explosion of a dyna miate bomb in the street a few feet from the entrance of the convent. The bomb did practically no damage, as the force of the blast spent itself on the and the air, but the noise of tne explosion was terrific and the buildings for a block o% more In every direction were shaken. The inmates of Che convent were asleep in their dormitory quarters at the time I but at the sound of the bursting bomb, l they jumped out of their beds and rush ed in terror to stairways and fire es j capes. The slaters quieted them with I difficulty while the convent watchman rushed from Ms room in the cellar to Investigate. i On reaching the street the watchman I caught sight of a carriage being driven rapidly eastwsu-d in 106th street. It dis appeared in the shadows of the elevated railroad structure In Fark avenue. The watchman gave chasA, but when he got to Park avenue, there was no trace of the carriage. , , ' In the trail of the carriage the watch man picked up a package wrapped in pa per and heavily corded. It contained the second bomb, unexploded and loaded with about a pound of dynamite. 'He turned the explosive over to a policeman who immersed it In a pall of water pending examination by the bureau of combustibles. The police believe that the bombs were not intended for the convent, but for a wealthy Italian physician, whose resi dence adjoins the institution. The phy sician admitted to the police that he had received a threatening letter pur porting to come from the Black Hand and demanding money op pain of having his house blown up.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1911. How to Begin in Poultry Business in a Small Way IF YOU have any poultry at all, select one or two of your most trustj’ hens as setters, and invest from some reliable breeder >5 to 110 in 30 eggs from any popular variety. Just before the time you think that your hens will be ready to take their nest, order the eggs several daya in advance. Have the hens some nice cle'an nests made of ccjarse shavings In a quiet plage. Let these hens set a few’ days on a Ohina nest egg. Upon receipt of the eggs, unpack them and let them rest op the side in a basket or box for at leaßt 24 hours before placing under hen •if they have been shipped. This will enable the dis turbed ligaments to set tle back together and be ready for a good start at incubatlqn as soon as plac^ under the hens. Once each week the hens thoroughly with any good insect powden, that can be had of any druggist or poultry dealer. > Before the hens hatch, have two comfort .X IF* Jafe'Sii able brooder coops ready. An ordinary dry & oodß box ’ ssat ‘ ted or screened wlth wire in the front, with a piece of tar l iaper over the tops, makes a -‘M S|)l( ‘ n| lid coop. Some dry coarse sand W should be placed on the bottom of this box at least two inches deep. anfl a f least one inch of shredded ail fa Isa or fine straw or hay should be gKsrS Pl af>e d on ’ top of same. When the MRBImBmBBKBBBBBW eD ba s finished hatching, remove her and the chicks,to this brooder coop, which should be done at abont 40 to 60 hours from the time the first egg starts to hatch. The first day they should only have some fresh water to drink. The next-day they should be fed lightly every three hours Just what they will eat up with a relish, either in a pan or on a shingle, should this feed be given. At the end of the third they should be fed every two hours Just what they will eat up clean. Any ordinary pre pared chick feed, rolled oats, pinhead oatmeal, or ordinary grits or oatmeal mixed. This treatment should be continued at least two or three weeks, according to the weather. The hen or chicks should not be allowed outside of the box until at leist three weeks old. After three weeks old, if the weather is fairly good, a small opening can be made in the box. allowing the little chicks to run out but keeping the hen up. At five to six weeks old the hen and chicks can be turned at liberty but should be carefully closed up every nfght and kept up on rainy days. At the end of six weeks, if these chicks have been property fed and -treated this way, the hen can be removed from them, the little ehicks being allowed to roost In the same box (which should be thor oughly cleaned out at least once a week), until they are three to four months old; allowing the youngsters to have free range, with a small hopper of mixed.feed, plenty of oyster shelly charcoal and water kept where they can have a liberal supply at all times. They should be ted, in addition to this, two or . three times per day a different food from »that kept in the hopper—such as wheat, cracked corn, scalded oats, and plenty of green feed supplied to them if they are not on a grassy range ' When the chicks are about four months old, they should be con fined to smaller yards, say 5Q chicks to- a’ yard 10 by 50 feet, with a good scratching pen in this yard. Feed should be kept before them in .hopperq at all times. This will round the chicks out and have them mature and laying at six months old. Pullets hatched in March or April should all be laying by September or October at least; and will • continue to lay through the entire winter if properly housed and cared for. The male birds, such as are not expected to be kept for breeding purposes, should be marketed at six weeks old as broilers weighing about one pound, when they will bring twice as much as the frying site will during the sumnier'months, and as a rule they" are always fat at six weeks to two months old —fatter than they will be again until matured. After the pullets are grown and commence laying, a nice comforta ble house, say Bxlo, 5 feet high in the rear and 7 feet in the front, closed on all three sides, with wire front facing south should be pro vided for about 20 to 25 pullets with a small yard, say 10 by 50, attached to same, allowing thbm to exercise during prTtty weather. A small flock started this way wfll give you eggs jn early fall —the first of which should be marketed. After the pullets have been laying six weeks to two months, if mated to an old cock bird, the eggs will produce strong vigorous chicks. From the two settings of eggs started with, one should easily have 12 td 16 hied ptillets. **Then an incubator, 10d-egg size, with a brooder of equal size should be brought into use and start hatching in Decem ber. .Hatching through the entire spring months up. until the middle of. April in middle and south Georgia and by the first of j May in north Georgia, any one should, with a sinall flock like this, have 500 or 600 youngsters—enough to satisfy the average small family. »q If you should desire to increase your flock after the first year, the earliest hatched strongest pullets should bte selected and nothing left undone to mature them into strong vigorous breeding birds. Never keep any more than you can well care for, or well feed. No chickens will do well without good feed, case and attention, and should not be crowded too much unless they are in absolutely clean, well ventilated quarters. . . . ', f - The first year’s work cgn be accomplished on a small spaice, not over 100 feet square, or in any ordinary back yard. This is one way to start with a small amount of money. If one has SSO or SIOO to invest, it would, of courste, be Hest to purchase a pen of six good fe males, and a nice male bird,’ which could be had for about $25 of any ‘of the popular breeds. The incubator and brooder would cost S3O, and a second brooder, to move the chicks in without the heat at the •nd of three weeks, could be made for $5 more. Twenty-five dollars would put up a comfortable buHding to accommodate these chickens. Another $25 tb bdy feed, do a little advertising, and other small inci dentals, would enable one to produce a larger number of chicks the first season and have several hundred choice pullets to start with the following year. ' If you desire a large thicken for the greatest number of pounds of flesh at maturity, would suggest any of the American or English breeds, such as Plymouth Rocks, all colors, Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds, and the different colors of Orpingtons. Any of these make the very best of tabfe fowls when gijown, or to be used as fryers or roast ing chickens. .After the first year, with most'of these larger breeds, one will have to be more careful about the variety of feed given if they still wish to get a good supply of eggs from them. They naturally have a tendency to fat,, being a meat breed, and their feed, especially ts of corn, will have a tendency to go to fat and they will become lazy and not produce eggs as they should. However, by careful feeding, this edn be overcome largely, but when it is desired to fatten them, this can be easily done. Whatever variety you select, be sute to get a few good ones—just as near the standard as you possibly can, and in mating these birds, be sure that the first thing to be considered is correctness of type of the breed and use only birds with strong cqnstltutlons. Cockerels should be mated with yearling hens, and yearling male birds should be mated with the- pullets. In this way, you naturally get stronger offspring with splendid constitutions, and with good con stitutions you are sure to get good results in every way. From eight to fourteen females should be mated to each male. The smaller vari eties are naturally more active and more females can be placed in these pens than with the larger breeds. Never put more than one male bird in a pen or small yard. It is best, if you have only one yard and more hens than one male should be mated with, to rest one of the males for two or three weeks and allow one male at a time with the hens. The chickens will be much stronger than if two or three males are allowed to run in a yard that is enclosed with limited space. Os course out on a large free range it is a different proposition and several male birds can be kept with larger flocks of hens. Fowls selected and mated in this way will give much better re sults than if left alone with all ages and different sizes running to gether. They will surely degenerate if the matings are not properly kept up. This is a very important point that should be looked after. The secret of producing high class show birds is in having them prop erly mated. The same applies for commercial purposes. REWARDS OF $1,400 OFFERED FOR BANDITS GAINESVILLE.

The recluse with whom she had talked yes- , terday sat a little way inside, while be fore him, in an attitude of deepest at tention, stood the diminutive tigure on the huge clogs whose morning acquaint ance she had made from her window. Thorn was looking at him earnestly with his great myoplj! eye, through a heavy glass hiounted with a handle like a lor gnette. "My son,” he said, "why will you per sist in eating ame, when I have taught you the clasics and the true divinity of the universe? It is too sweet for youth ful teeth'. One of these days you will be carried to a dentist, an esteemed per son with horrible tools, prior to ;the re moval of a small hell, containing several | myriads of lost souls, from the left side of your lower jaw!” Barbara's foot grated on a pebble and he rose with a startled quickness. The I youngster bent double, his face preter naturally grave. Thorn thrust the glass into his sleeve and smiled. “I am experimenting on this orienta raw material,” he said, "to illustrate certain theories of my own. Ishkichi- I San, though a slave to the sweet-meat : dealer, is a learned infant. He can ' write forty Chinese characters and re- 1 cite ten texts of Mencius. He also knows many damnable facts about fig ures which they teach in school. He has just propounded a question that Con fucius was too wise to answer: 'Why is poverty?’ Not being so wise as the Chinese sage, I attempted its elucidation Thus endeth our lesston today, Ishkichi. Sayonara.” Barbara looked after him smilingly. "Is Ishkichi in straitened circumstances? Or is his bent political economy?” "His father has been ill for a long time,” Thorn replied. “He keeps a'shop, and in some way the child has heard that they will have to give it up. It troubles him, for he can't imagine exist ence without it.” "What a pity! I would be so glad to —do you think I could give them some thing?” ' He shook his head. "After you have been here a while, you will find that simple charity in Japan is not apt to be a welcome thing.” "I am beginning to understand al ready," she said, as they walked along the stepping-stones, “that these gentle mannered people do not lack the sterner qualities. Yet how they grace them' The iron-hand is here, but it has the i velvet glove. Courtesy and kindness i seem almost a religion with them.” "More,” he answered. “This is the only country I have seen in the world whose people, when I walk the street, do not seem to notice that I am dis figured!” She made no pretense of misunder standing. "Believe me,” she said gently,, ‘it is no disfigurement. But I under stand. My father lived all his life in the dread of blindness.” A faint sound came from him. She was aware, without lifting her eyes to his, that he was staring at her strange ly. "All his life. Then your father is not . . . living?” -*e died before I was born.” She glanced at him as she spoke, for his tone had been muffled and indis tinct. There was a deep furrow in his forehead which she had not seep be- ‘ fore. „ "Do you look like him?” , "No, he was dark. I am like my' mother.” Thorn was looking away from her, toward the lane, where, beyond the hedge, a man was passing, half-singing, half-chanting to himself In a repressed, sepulchral voice. "My mother died, too, when I was a little girl.” she added, "so I know really very little about him.” She was looking out across the wide! space where the roofs sank out of sight | —to the foliaged slope of Aoyama. Sud- ; denly a thrill, a curiously complex mo- [ tion, ran over her. Above those far I tree-tops, sailing in slow, sweeping, con centric circles, she saw a great machine, like a gigantic vulture. She knew in swuntly what it was, and there flashed be fore her the memory of a day at Fort [ I,ogan when a brave young lieutennt I had crashed to death before her eyes in ' a shattered aeroplane. If Daunt were to fall I. . . . what would it mean to her! In that instant the garden abcait her, Thorn, the blue sky above, faded, and she stared dis mayed into a gulf in whose' shadows I lurked the disastrous, the terrifying, the irreparable. "I love him! I love him!” —it seemed to peal like a temple-bell through her brain. Even to herself she could never deny it again! She became aware of music near at hand. It brought her back to the pres ent, for it was the sound of the organ in the new chapel across the way. Looking up, she was struck by the ; expression on Thorn’s face. He seemed, ! listening, to be held captive by some dire recollection. It brought to her mind that bitter cry: "I can not but remember such things were. That were most precious to me!” She rose with a sudden swelling of the ( throat. •‘I must go now,” she said. “The chapel is to be dedicated this morning. The or gan is playing for the service now.” She led the way along the stepping stones to the bamboo gate. As they ap proached, through the interstices of the 1 farther hedge she could see the figure ;of the ambassador, with Mrs. Dan dridge. among tha kimono entering the j chapel door. In the temple across the ; yard the baton had begun its tapping and the dulled, monotonous tom-tom mingled weirdly with the soaring harmo nies of the organ. With her hand on the paling she spoke again: “One thing I didn’t tell you. It was I who built the chapel. It is in the mem ory of my father. See, there is the me morial window. They were putting it in place when I came a little while ago.” She was not looking at Thorn, or she would have seen his face overspread with a whiteness like that of death. He stood as if frozen to marble. The morning sun on the chapel’s eastern side, striking through' its open casements, lighted the iridescent rose-window with a tender radiance, gilding the dull yellow aureole about the head of the master and giving life and glow to the face beside Him— dark, beardless, and passionately tender —at which Thorn was staring, with what seemed almost an agony of inquiry. "St. John,” she said softly, “ ’the dis ciple whom Jesus loved.” She drew from the bosom of her dress the locket she always wore and opened it. "The face was painted from, this—the only picture I have of my father.” His hand twitched as he took it. He looked at\ it long and earnestly—at the name carved on its lid. “Barbara—Bar- ' bara Fairfax’” he said. She thought . his lips shook under the gray mustache. I "You—are a Buddhist, are you hot?”! she asked. "And Buddhists believe the! spirits of the dead are always about us. : Do you think—perhaps—he sees the! chapel?” He put her locket into her hands! hastily. “God!” he said, as if to him-1 self. “He will see it through a hundred ! existences!” Her eyes were moist and shining. “I am glad you think that,” she said. . | In the chapel the bishop s gaze kin dled as it went out over the kneeling people. "We beseech Thee, that in this place now set apart to Thy service. Thy holy! name may be worshiped in truth and pur-' ity through all generations.” The voice of the bishop carried across the lane and entered the window of a temple loft, where a man sat, still and gray apd quiet. He threw himself on his face with a terrible cry. "My child!” he cried in a breaking: voice. "My little, little child, whom thej* have robbed me of—whom I have never known in all these weary years! You have grown away from me—l shall never have you now! Never . . never!” CHAPTER XXVI. DAUNT LISTENS TO A SONG. The day had dawned sultry, with a promise pf summer humidity, and Daunt was not surprised to find the barometer performing intemperate antics. That morning had seen his first trial of his new fan-propeller, and the Glider’s action had surpassed his wildest expecta tion. The flight, of which Barbara had caught a glimpse from Thorns garden, had been a longer one than usual—quite. 12 miles against a sluggish upper cur rent—but even that failed to bring its customary glow. Thereafter he had spent I a long morning immersed in the work of the chancery: the study of a disputed mining concession in Manchuria; a report on a contemplated issue of government i bonds, a demand for a passport by a self alleged national with a foreign accent and a paucity of naturalization papers; i the daily budget of translations from ver nacular newspapers, by which a home government gains a bird's-eye view of comment and public opinion in far-away capitals. | But today Daunt could not exorcise with the mass of detail the leering imps that plagued him. They peered a.t him over the edge of the code books anti whis pered from the margins of decorous d’spatches. ehuck-ng satirically. "Barbara!” they sneered. “Mere ac quaint a«;< es often name steam yachts for girls, don't they! Arrived the same day as her ship, eh? Rather singular coinci dence! What a flush she had wheci Voy nich spoke of Phil's brother last night at the tea house. Angry? Os course she was! What engaged girl likes to have the fact paraded—especially when she’s practicing on another man? And how about the telegram? How long have you known her, by the way? Two days? Really, now!” The weekly governmental poudh had closed at noon, and pouch days were half holidays, but Daunt did 'hot go to the ' embassy. An official letter had arrived from Washington which must be deliver ed in Kamakura. Daunt seized this ex- . t cuse, plunged ferociously into tweeds and an hour afterward found himself in a railway carriage thpdding gloomily to ward the lower bay. In his heart ho khew that he was trying to run away— from something that nevertheless travel- 1 ed with him. At Kamakura an immediate answer to the letter he brought was not forthcom ing, and to kill time he strolled far down the curved beach. Daunt knew a tea-house on the very lip of the cliff, the : Kinkl-ro—"lnn of the Golden Turtle”— ' and he bent his steps lazily in its direc tion. . / In the heavy heat the low tile roof looked cool and inviting. Tall soft-eyed iris were standing in its garden over looking the water, and against the green their velvety leaves made vivid splashes l of golden blue.
