The Greek conspirator (modern style) takes long views. According to an Exchange message from Athens, “the >monkey which bit King Alexander wall suffering from rabies, with which it had been artificially inoculated. A deliberate attempt was thus made on the King’s life.” To make a monkey mad in the hope that the king will come round with his dog, that the monkey will attack the dog, and that His Majesty will intervene and get bitten, is evidently a much more artistic way of doing things than the old anarchist plan of throwing a bomb.
