RUSSIAN NIHILISTS ACTIVE.
Anarchist outrages Increasing There
in Alarming Proportions.

Special Cablcgram to the New York Times.
LONDON, May 21-An article in a Lem
berg newspaper is quoted by the Vienna
correspondent of the Times. 1t states that
the man who wounded Gen. Won VAIL the
governor of Wilma, said he desired TO take
revenge upon the governor for the cruelties
perpetrated on political prisoners under his
instructions.
The newspaper says there is no doubt
that the governor has been condemned to
death by the central revolutionary commit
tee, and has received threatening letters to
that effect. Similar letters have been re-
ceived by the new minister Of the interior.
NJ. Won Plehwe.
1t is declared that the impression pro-
duced in St Petersburg is Of greater con-
sequence than the fact that the police prove
powerless to cope with such outrages which
are increasing in alarming proportions.
According to a telegram to the Neue
Freie Presse, the execution of Balschaneff
0he assassin of NJ. Sipiaguine) has given
rise to serious apprehensions, acts of re-
venge being expected.

Ohio valley, deterioration being reported in
some districts and slight advance in 9TH
ers. In Missouri the crop continues in ex-
ceptionally promising condition although
some lodging is reported, and further inn
provement in Nebraska and Arkansas, and
more favorable conditions in northern Kan
sas are indicated The crop has made Wig
orouS growth in Oklahoma, and harvesting,
with light yields, is in progress in Texas.
On the Pacific coast winter wheat has
made favorable advancement and is ripen-
ing in San Joaquin valley.
Under exceptionally favorable tempera-
ture conditions termination of spring wheat
has been rapid. and over the southern por-
ton of the spring wheat region the early
sown is making vigorous growth, but con-
tinued wet weather still delays seeding on
low land in the Red River valley.
The oat crop is much in need of rain in
the Ohio valley, and the reports from the
gulf states are generally unfavorable. In
the middle Atlantic states and the Missouri
valley the general outlook is satisfactory
The cotton crop is in promising condition
generally throughout the cotton belt. Good
stands of early cotton. and satisfactory
termination of the late planted are indi-
Gated, except in portions of the Carolnas
and Louisiana, with clean fields and healthy
growth in practically all sections. In
southern Texas the crop has made rapid
advancement and squares are forming
The stands Of tobacco in the Carolnas
and Virginia are irregular. But little trans
planting has been done in Maryland owing
TO cool weather and none has as yet been
set in Kentucky, where this work promises
to be general this week. The plant beds in
Ohio are suffering for rain.
On the whole the fruit outlook is less ia
vorable. The frosts Of this and the pre-
vious week have caused considerable dam
age in New England and the northern por-
ton of the middle Atlantic states. but no
serious injury has been done over the
southern portion of the last named district
Peaches are dropping very extensively in
the east gulf states.
Except In the Ohio valley and middle At
lantic states. there has been further i'm
provement in the condition of grass espe-
cially in the upper Mississippi and Mis-
souri, valleys and the lake region.

Eligibility Clause.


The clause on eligibility is as follows:
THE state societies shall be composed en-
tirely of women who are descended in their
own right from some ancestor of worthy
life who came to reside in an American
colony prior to 1850, which ancestor or
some one Of his descendants being lienal
ascendant of the applicant, shall have rem
dered efficient service to his country dur
ing the colonial period, either In the found
ing of a commonwealth, of fnstitu-
ton which has survived and developed into
Importance, or who shall have held an i'm
portant position in colonial government
who, by distinguished services, shall
have contributed to the founding of this
great and powerful nation.
"All services which constitute a claim
to membership must have been rendered
before July 5, 1776. but this date shall be
held to include all the signers Of the Dec
Iaration Of independence"
The constitution recites that the regular
meetings of the national society shall be
held every two years in Washington, d. c.,
and special meetings may be held at call
of the national president or upon the re-
quest of a majority Of the state societies.
The colonial states send five delegates
with their alternates. but the non-colonial
states can send only one delegate to the
biennial council. and these non-colonial
delegates can vote on all subjects excepting
changes in the constitution.
1t is on this clause that the rational So
ciety is held up just now There Is a clamor
from the non-colonial states to be admitted
to full representation, and that the prefix
non be barred from the constitution.
1t is said that the colonial states are
fighting this proposition bitterly, but in the
fight they are barring such states as Maine
and there is proposition to admit Maine
as provisional colony" or title to that
effect. The colonials feel that this will be
only an entering wedge, SO there is trouble
in the air.
The Great Seal.
Although refusing to admit the non-colo-
NAL states to the inner circle, the National
Society of Colonial Danes of America rec
ognizes four kingdoms of the old world on
it's great seal. AS described In heraldry,
the seal is as follows:

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE

Has it ever been your unhappy lot 10
be told by your physician that you must
go TO a hospital and submit 10 an opera
ton? If so, you remember with what
dread and shrinking you awaited the day
when YOU must endure the knife. The
present day surgeon appears to be pos
sessed by a mania for operating, espe-
ciaIlv in cases of hemorrhoids or piles,
and while the greater number OF the pro-
fession do not recommend this last re-
sort" unless they honestly believe 1t ne
cessary, the fact remains that much
needless operating is done, and the pat
lent put to much expense and suffering
for what? To obtain possible temper
arv relief; these words are used advised
w because in nine cases out of ten the
affiction returns and the patient is Just
where he started from. Oftentimes he
could be cured much more simply and
easily by the use of such remedy as the
Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come to be
recognized as the best remedy on the
market for the painful disease named,
and the druggists now sell more of 1t
than all other pile remedies combined.
The writer personally knows people who
were afflicted with the worst form OF
bleeding and protruding piles and who
were permanently cured by the use of
Pyramid Pile Cure. In every one of
these cases the attending physician had
assured the sufferer that only by an OPP
Grafton could he rid himself of the al
sease: so much for the infallibility of the
doctors. This remedy, which is sold by
all druggists at the low price of fifty
cents, is in suppository form, is applied
directly to the parts affected, and per-
forms is work quietly and painlessly.
The Pyramid Pile Drug Co., Marshall,
Mich, will mail free to any address a
book telling all about piles or hemor-
rhoids, their cause and cure.
A suggestion is offered that if the
readeF is afflicted, or knows anyone who
is, this book be sent for, as it will be
found invaluable.
