man John r. Thayer, by which each of
us is to get eight acres of land? That is,
a mighty good scheme, and it seems a

would take before few dozen men got

BOMB CRASHES IN RUSSIA.
MINISTER OF THE INTER-
IOR BLOWN TO ATOMS.
The Russian Minister Surround
ed by Detectives When An
Assassin Throws His
Deadly Bomb.

st. petersburg, July ZS.-M. Won
Plehve, Minister of the Interior, was
assaulted at $3.50 o'clock this morn
ing by a bomb thrown at his carriage
while he was driving to the Baltic
station to take train for the palace
at Peterhof, where he was to make
his weekly report to the Emperor.
The assination is believed to be
the outcome of a widespread plot,
the existence of which has been sus-
pected for several days. Numerous
arrests have already been made, in
Guiding that of the assassin, a young
man who is believed to be a Finn,
named Legio, and who is now in a
hospital severely and perhaps fatally
injured by the explosion of his own
bomb.
An accomplice of Legio, also ap-
parently a Finn, but whose name is
unknown, has been arrested. He
had in his possession bomb which
he tried to throw, but he was over
powered by the police just in time
to prevent great loss of life.
The assassin wore brown over
coat and railroad officials cap. He
stood on the sidewalk just as Minis
ter Won Piehve's carriage was about
to cross the canal bridge near the
station. The Minister was escorted
by number Of detectives on bicy-
cles and one of them jostled the as
sassin, who then rushed into the
road and threw the bomb after the
carriage. The missile struck the
hind wheel and exploded with fear
full force, killing or woudding over
score of persons. Minister Won
Piehve and his coachman were kill
ed outright, and an officer of the
guard was fatally injured.
Detectives arrested the assassin
who endeavored to escape though
wounded by splinters in the face,
arm and abdomen. He made no at
tempt at resistance, however, when
seized by the detective, and confessed
his crime, but refused to give his
name.
The police Immediately after the
explosion arrested a suspicious indi
vidual who took refuge in hotel
opposite the scene Of the tragedy.
He carried a bomb similar to that
thrown by Legio. AS soon as the
police saw the bomb they scattered,
but an ernploye of the hotel rushed
in behind the accomplice and pinned
his arms.
The explosive is believed to have
been composed of proxylin as it gave
off little smoke. The force of the ex-
plosion was so terrific that it not on
ly broke every window within a
radius of half mile but reduced the
heavy paving stone to powder,
heaved up the pavement and flung a
heavy piece of the iron work of the
carriage across the canal, severing
the thick mast of barge which fell
stunning the captain of the barge.
Everybody in the streets was knock
ed down and more or less bruised.

Only Way to Cure Catarrh Is by
Breathing HyOmei.

Only Way to Cure Catarrh Is by
Breathing Hyomei.
Ask any physician if catarrh is q
blood disease and he will tell you
that it is diseased condition of the
mucous membrane and that it cam
not be cured by blood purifiers, pills,
tablets, or other forms OF stomach
dosing. The only sensible and scIen"
tific way of curing catarrh is by the
use of Hyomei.
Breathed for a few minutes, four
or five times day, through hard
rubber inhalere that is so small that
it can be carried in the vest pocket,
Hyomei will absolutely destroy all
catarrhal germs and cure the disease.
Catarrh can never exist where Hy-
omei is used. It has two fold ac-
ton, destroying the disease germs I'D
the air passages and lung, and sooth-
ing and healing theinfamed mucous
membrane.
J. II. Hill & Son, one of the most
reliable firms in Goldsboro, are CIV
ing their personal guarantee with
every package of Hyomei they sell,
that it will effect cure or they will
return the money. They have had
score of reports of remarkable cures
of both route and chronic cases Of Ca
tarrh by Hyomei.
No other treatment has the en-
dorsement of so many reputable peo-
pie in all walks of life, as this scien-
tific yet common sense cure for Ca
tarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
$1.OO and comprises an inhaler,
bottle of Hyomei and dropper. The
inhaler will last a life time; and adj
ditional bottles of Hyomei can be-

NOT CAUSED BY GERMS.
Dyspepsia NIicrObe. One Di-

sease That Has No Bacillus.
It really seems refreshing in these
days of germs, aud microbes to know
that there is one disease at least
where a germicide does not have to
be used to cure it.
Dyspepsia is plain, ordinary,
common, miserable disease that has
all kinds of causes except a germ. To
cure it, the inflamed and irritated or
gans should be relieved for time of
part of their work. Mi-o-na, the one
guaranteed cure for dyspepsia, meets
these conditions and also gives
strength and tone to the whole sys-
tenn.
A few days treatment will show
the great good Mi-o-na can do and
its use for reasonable length of time
will result in complete cure. No
one should hesitate trying this rem
edy. It is as certain to be successful
in curing dyspepsia and stomach
troubles as anything can be. A two
weeks treatment costs but so cents.
Mi-o-na is sold by J. III. Hill &
Son on the fairest plan imaginable,
with an absolute guarantee to refund
the money in case it~does not cure.
They will sell you Mi-o-na on trial
with the positive understanding that
If it does not give satisfaction the
money is to be returned without
question. A guarantee like this cam
not fail to inspire confidence. The
purchaser runs no risk whatever
