the Gar but the Murder of the Entire
Reigning Family.
LONDON, Jan. 4.-The arrest of the
notorious Nihilist leader, Pierra Gross,

closures far more startling than any of
the alarming revelations which have

In his clothing the most damning evil
ience is obtained against many persons
high in imperial favor and authority,
contemplating not the assassination of
the Gar alone, but the murder of the
entire reigning family as we'll. Already
many of the conspirators have been
taken into custody and those still
at large are under espionage or being
tracked by relentless police officials to
the end of their Judgment in prison,
whence they will all most certainly go
to their death. Several of the impli-
Gated persons were apprehended while
Attempting to leave the country.

Things That inexperienced Sportsmer
should Make Note OF

Things That inexperienced Sportsmen
Should Make Note Of
An excellent treatment for bullet
wound is to wash the wound clean and
cover with clean muslin saturated with
a solution of carbolic acid or alcohol.
The great object is to keep the wound
clean and protected from the air. Do
not foolishly probe for the bullet. 1t
can be better extracted after the heal
ing of the wound.
To extract fish hooks from your flesh
or clothing cut the leader free and push
the hook on through, depressing the
upper end so as to bring the point out as
near as possible to where it went in.
Don't try to pull the hook back over the
barb.
Thirst can be abated by the eating OF
acid fruits or plants. The chewing OF
twigs. barks or leaves of trees and
shrubs will also afford temporary relief.
Snow and ice aggravate the thirst by
chilling and closing the salivary glands.
Learn to shoot without shutting your
eyes when you pull the trigger. Begin
ners will find il hard to do this, but 1t
must be done.
In sighting either shotgun or rife the
left eye should be closed, except in the
case of left-handed persons; then the
right eye should be closed. Some men
keep both eyes open. but the majority
of shooters and all the crack shots close
the left eye.
An extra pair Of socks are handy on
one-day outing trip. Then, with your
shoes nicely dried at any lady hosts
fire, you viii be in comfort for the next
morning on your way home
Avoid sleeping in close rooms Keep
the apartment well ventilated Let in
fresh air, but keep out of the draught
When out shooting carry small
square Of chamois skin saturated with
pure oil. Then you are prepared to well
grease your gun in case of rain-storm.
