Berlin, May Allowing to the certainty
that the canal bill will be rejected the
government has decided to close the
Prussian diet to-day without wait
ing for The verdict of This body. There
an impression that the cabinet has
not abandoned the canal DILL. 1t is con-
sidered probable that DR.. Won Mid lei,
vice president of the council and minister
of finance; Baron Won Hammerstein-
Loxten, minister of agriculture, and DR..
Schoenstadt. minister of justice, will re-
sign.
The .Allgemeine Zeituig says that En-
peror William recently remarked that he
would not nominate a successor to
Chancellor Won Buelow. If the question
of his successor ever became acute he
would assign to the Office of chancellor
even greater weight and Importance than
it now possesses and would make Prince
Albrecht Of Prussia chancellor. The
latter assertion is ridiculed, while the
former one is credited by those who are
well informed.

A DOCTOR THIS TIME.

Portland, May 6th.-Dr f. A. Rose, a
pra cticing physician, formerly of Yates
Center, Hams, was on what everyone
supposed to be his death bed. He had
Diabetes, and six of his brother doctors
were in attendance and consultation at
his bedside. They had done everything
that medical skill could suggest to save
his life, but they We're at last reluctant
ly forced to tell him that he must pre-.
pare for death.
His aunt had been summoned to his
dying bedside. After the doctors had
given her nephew up, she insisted that,
as a last resort, he be given a treat
uent of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
From the very first dose the tide
turned in his favor. His life was saved.
and he is hale and hearty to-day.
This case and it's cure has amazed thu
physicians, and is the sensation of the
hour. 1t is interesting to note that,
while many others are being cured by
this great discovery in medicine, the
physicians themselves are among the
first to benefit, and that while the sim
pier and more prevalent forms, such as
rheumatism, Sciatica, Bladder and
Urinary Trouble and Female Weakness
disappear before it, the more malignant
fol- ms, such as Bright's Disease, Dia-
betes and Dropsy, which have always
been regarded as incurable, are yield
ing just as easily.
Dodds Kidney Pills are fast SUPER
ceding all other treatment for Kidney
Disease, and as nearly all human sick
ness and suffering has its origin in the
Kidneys, the use of this wonderful med.
icine is becoming almost universal.

err to return to Grey Oaks, save as Its
acknowledged mistress-acknowled
by the man who had dispossessed her
and by the world.
And now, when scarce three months
later, the carriage rolled through the
lodge gates, and the old, famlllar
scenes burst upon her view, Beatrice
felt that she had, in a measure, per-
jured herself.
And vet a voice within her Wh1s"
pered that it was a first step toward
the goal of success. and as the cold
wind blew through the bare branches
of the oaks, she could fancy it bore to
her the message Of the dream.

Premier Ito and All but One of the
Ministers Resign.
Yokohama, May Ain consequence Of
the continued postponement by the Jap
anese minister of finance, Viscount
Watanabe, of the carrying out of the ex-
pected public works, the cabinet crisis
reached climax yesterday, and Marquis
Ito, the premier, proceeded to the palace
and rendered his resignation to the
mikado. All the other members of the
cabinet did likewise, with the exception
Of the minister of war, Baron Kodoma.
It is asserted that Marquis Ito advised
Emperor Mutsuhito to intrust the task
Of forming a new cabinet to Marquis
Yamagata, whose government resigned
last October; but it is doubtful whether
Marquis Yamagata will accept the re-
sponsibility. The probability is that
Marquis Ito will reinstate the cabinet,
excluding Viscount Watanabe.
