The cofers of the society have been filled to carry on the work To begin with it will have S5,000, 900. of which St Pe- tersburg alone contributed g. 300 000
 In addition to this work of the Red Cross society. Emperor Nicholas has accepted the offer of the knightIy or ders of Count and Liyonia and Estho- ma. to equip medical corps for serv- ice at the front and this is only the be- ginning of similar offers from other royal orders and Russian societies
 Russia was the last Of the European powers to recognize the Red Crass movement and enter into the trea.y known as the Geneva convention TLe movement was the outgrowth of the experiences of a Swiss gentleman by the name of Henri Durant, who wit messed in 1859 the horrors of war on the battlefield of Solferino. and was aroused to the need of some organiza- tion which would have for it's object the amelioration of the suffering of the soldiers on the battlefelds and in the hospitals. As result of his efforts an international convention was called to meet in Geneva in 1861, to which l6 governments responded. All the Eu- ropean nations of Europe were repre- sented but Russia and it was not uu- til three years after this convention, in 1876, that she adopted the code of the society, providing for the protee- ton of the hospitals and people bear ing the insignia of the Red Cross and

A Horror in st. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg, July 28.-M. Won
Plehve, minister Of the interior, was
assassinated at 8 so o'clock this morn
ing by bomb thrown ct his carriage
while he was driving to the Baltic Sta
tion tc take train for the palace at
Peterhof. where he was to make his
weekly report 90 the Emperor.
The assassination is believed 70 be
the outcome Of widespread plot, the
existence of which has been suspected
for several days. Numerous arrests
have already been made including that
OF the assassin, young man who is
believed to be Finn named Legio,
aud who is now in hospital severely
and perhaps fatally injured by the ex-
plosion of his own bomb. An accom-
plice of Leglo, also apparently Finn,
but whose name is unknown, has been
arrested. He had in his possession
bomb which he tried to throw, but he
was overpowered by the police just in
time to prevent great loss Of life.
The assassin wore brown overcoat
and railroad official cap He stood
on the sidewalk just as Minister Won
Plehve's carriage was about ID cross
the canal bridge near the station. The
minister was escorted by a number Of
detectives on bicycles and one of them
jostled the assassin, who then rushed
into the road aud threw the bomb
after the carriage. The missile struck
the hind wheel and exploded w;:h
fearful force, killing or wounding over
score Of persons. Minister Won
Plehve and his coaohman we're killed
outright, and an officer Of the guard
was fatally injured.
One OF the cyclist detectives arres-
ted the ASSASSIN, who eudeavored to
escape, though sounded by splinters
in the face, arm and abdomen. He
made no attempt at resistance, how
ever, when seized by the detective,
and confessed his crime, bat refused
to give his name.
The police Immediately after the ex.
plosion arrested g suspicious indi
vidual who took refuge in hotel oppo-
site the scene of the tragedy. He
carried bomb similar to that thrown
by Leglo. AS soon as the police saw
the bomb they scattered, but an en-
pioye Of the hotel rushed up behind
the accomplice and pinned his arms.
The explosive is believed to have
been composed Of pyroxlin, as it
gave off little smoke. The force of
the explosion was so terrific that it
not only broke every window within
radius of half a mile, but re-
duced the heavy paving stones to
powder, heaved up the pavement and
flung heavy piece of the iron work
Of the carriage across the canal, sever
ing the thick mast Of barge which
fell, stunning the captain Of the barge.
Everybody in the street was Knocked
down and more or less bruised.

] JUDAS.
Was Judas Ever a Good Man ,
Mrs. FELTON, in Atlanta journal.

Bat sometime, somewhere, somehow
the change in his character took place
He Was transformed from good men
TO very bad man."
Thus he accounted for the lapse in
Judas. He was a good man when
Jesus called him to the discipleship,
but money, the root OF all evil: "
consumed his honor, his character and
his piety.
Rising to the height of the argu-
ment, the minister cried out with
tragic earncstness, "the love of mon
ey is the cause Of all decay in char.
actcr.
His dclincation Of the effect of this
love OF money on supposed good people
was searching exhibit of its fatal
power, for he told how the transfer
nation went on, secretly and silently,
until the once proud tree was laid low
in its hopeless decay with inside rot
tenness and the ~cim ti,at preyed on
character. "The higlcr the position
the greater the fall erie the impss.
stoned speaker.
Some may fall ten feet and be bruis-
ed and crippled, but when o minister
Of Gods word falls through love Of
money and what money stands for,
he drops from o height that mangles
and destroys every fibre in his spiritual
existence.
Judas fell from lofty height. He
fell into an abyss that made his case
g. nonym for ell that treachery rep
resents in it's heinous ingratitude.
Judas Iscariot is the name that all
men resent when applied to them
selves, whether wicked or pious, rich
or poor, bond or free.
His besetting sin was an inordinate
craving for money. 1t ate out his
righteousness and left him what the
Master called him, "a devil" Tue
sins Of his later life accumulated
around this greed for gain. His ava.
rice attracted the baser elements.
With hypocrisy, there was ingratitude
and base betrayal.
Does anybody desire to discuss fur
ther the character of Judas. If so
why should they not tell The Journal
readers how aud when he became what
the Saviour called him, when he said
Zone of you is (not was) devil?"
No subject could be discussed which
is more pertinent to this commercial
age, especially in its effect on the
church and it's progress.

Exchanging Children for the HOli

The youngsters from the villages GO
into town, and become the smarter
for their knowledge of city life. The
place of the young ''hayseeds" on the

who come back to town. after snell

His Own Brother.

The noted soldier and historian,
Theodore Ayrault Dodge, was educat-
ed in Berlin, and ct a dinner party,
spropos Ct German military discipline,
he once said:
"The German soldier must never
appear in public except 10 uniform.
Even ~hen he is oI fnrlough he must
not: under sny circumstances, wear

Of cavalry, during my residence in Ber-
lin, was one day engaged in some ad-
venture or another, and put on. to dis
guise himself, suit OF black cloth.
Dressed in this suit he was passing
down an unfrequented street, when he
came face to face with his colonel.
Detected in so grave lnisde-
meanor, Swstz proved himself the
possessor of resourceful mind. He
said to the colonel, in bass voice
different from his own:
Can you tell me, sir, where Lieut..
Swartz lives? I am his brother from
the country, and have come on to
pay him visit.
"The colonel readily and politely
gave the required information and
passed on.
"The lieutenant congratulated him
self on his escape. He hurried home
and put on his uniform. Duty late
that afternoon called him before
the colonel again. He saluted with
confidence. The colonel regarded him
oddly.

wish you'd tell your brother from the
country, if he pays you smother visit,
I'll put him in close confinement for

connection with the sale Of divers
wares to the merchants of North
Texas, gave his views on and expe-

country and, with the buggy, there
was thrown in by the livery stable a
negro who, the tra, elling man says, {,
was about the color of anthracite.
The two travelled across the muddy
roads for miles upon miles and all was
going well, when suddenly the negro
rose in the buggy.

The drummer looked barely in time
to see an ordinary cotton tail rabbit
cross the road like streak of gray.
The negro prepared to get out.
what are you doing?' demanded
the drummer. catching at the lines as
they fell. The negro got out. Then
he carefully turned every one of his
ragged pockets inside out, backed up
to the place which the cotton tail had
crossed and walked across the imagin.

into the buggy again.

KILLS GERES OF CATARRH.
Hyomei Goes to the Root Of the Dis
ease and Makos Astonishing Curee.

Catarrh cannot be cured by the u.s.
Of pills, liquid medicines and so.called

the germs Of the disease will still live
in the air passages and inc. lease and
multiply.
Hyomei is the only scientific and
thorough way to cure eatarrh. Kill.

enters the blood with the oxygen, de.
stroys the microbes in the blood and
etfeotually drives from the System al

Probably the strongest evidence
that can be offered as to the powers of
Hyomei to cure oatarrh il tho fact
that Evans Pharmacy will ngree to re-.
