New York. Aug. 1s.-An explo
siye package capable Of causing BIZ
death was sent 20 Jacob II Schif,
the banker, today, at the Office Of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co, of which he is a
member Mr.. Scbif was at Bar
Harbor today and when the machine
enclosed in wooden box, about six
inches long, was received at his office
the clerks Immediately sent it to the
police.
At first the police report ed that
the affair was joke, but further in
yestigation by an expert revealed the
presence Of thirty-one grains Of
highly explosive powder, and two 49,
caliber loaded cartridges. ARA nged
30 a. To FIRE the charge merely by or
binary handling Of the package was
a cylinder Of emery paper, lying in
contact with both the powder and
several matches. The fash Of this
powder would have discharged the
cartridges, which had been carefully
filled at the Eliminating ends. Lead
slugs were packed in beside the bull
lets, evidently TO make the discharge
more dangerous.
Through the machine there was an
oily saturation 10 insure the fash Of
any one Of the matches reaching the
powder. The whole mechanism was
concealed under a newspaper wrapper
Of Wall street stock quotations.
Mr. Schiff was one of the delega-

pass before our entnnccd vision a
beautiful scope Of valley like land,
with huge boulders covered with moss
full of flowers and shrubs Of a sage

land covered with long maiden hair
grass Of beautiful pea green color,
which like the forest and flower gar

inches long aud two inches through,
and Of beautiful azure blue, could
be seen darting in aud out Of the hi

Then We passed on to the Seal
Rocks. which consists Of three great
rugged rocks, about forty or ffty feet
long and twenty feet wide. They are
near the shore aud when the surf
would dash against those rocks there
would be from one TO two hundred
seals elambering to get on the rocks.
Some would get there while Others
would miss their mark and wash back
scaward in the surf, and when il came
again, which is every few minutes,
they would come again to try their
luck. There are also sea dogs and
sea lions. Their heads are like a

the large ones roar like lion and
from their roar, ] reckon, they get
the name of sea lion.
Well, We came back home without

In the death Of w. II. Hurst
there was something unusually sad.
His loved ones were left fatherless
and his wife a widow only a few short
moments after losing her father. Mr..
Hurst was in every way representa-
tive citizen. He was high-toned and
honorable in all his dealings and was
man much beloved by all his friends
and acquaintances, and it seems hard
that he should be taken in the prime
of life. Mr.. Hurst would have been
43 years old Monday, Aug. 2l. He
died Aug. l6, 1905. He leaves a
wife and four children-Leonard,
Fred, Ormond and Robert Earl.
He was born in East Tennessee and
removed TO this county with his ia
ther when year old where he has
since resided. He married Jan. IL,
1890, Miss Ludy Woolf, daughter of
Squire VIM. II. Woolf, one OF the
most highly esteemed citizens of the
county. The remains were laid to
rest Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
at the Olive Branch cemetery, Rev.

More Toklo Riots

,Tokio.-Advices from Yokohama say
that riot occurred there shortly af-
ter midnight Wednesday morning
The mob was divided into two
bodies, numbering $500, mostly coolies,
boatmen and outcasts. Eight police
boxes were demolished and burned The
mob directed its attack against three
objects, the police stations, the resi-
dences Of the customs officers and the
large commercial houses.
Four hundred troops were sent from
Toxic on a special train little before
dawn and soldiers are now guarding
the consulates, the warehouses con-
tanning explosives and the oil tanks.
The governor of the prefecture and
the mayor of Yokohama have issued
proclamations instructing the peo-
pie to place confidence in the ability
of the authorities to restore order.
Six hundred Russian prisoners of
war from Karafuto, who were staying
at the different hotels, have been
placed under a special guard
During the riot the police used
drawn pistols and swordsticks.
The casualties among the police
were three severely. wounded and 81
slightly injured. Ninety-eight of the
mob are under arrest. The mob set
fire to the police boxes by soaking
hats in oil, firing and throwing them
at the object of attack.
Quiet has apparently been restored.

Sentiment Not AntI.FOreIgn.

Tokio.-The Mainichi in Its leader
resents the statements Of the Kokum
In, government organ, in CHASING
the burning of churches at Toxic dur
ing the rioting with the actions of the
Chinese boxers, In its leader the
Mainichl says:
mo trace of an anti-foreign or any
such sentiment as entertained by the
boxers, exists even in the remotest
corner of the empire.
Had the recent uprising been even
tinged with such feeling why were
the foreigners not attacked at the I'M
periol hotel, next door to the minis
ter's residence, which was the object
of the repeated attack during the riot
ing.
There was no attempt at any yio-
lence toward the guests of the hotel
who were permitted quietly to observe
the disturbance in the street. A slight
injury suffered by an American citizen
occurred in a street crowded with en-
cited people and it was quite acci-
dental"
The leader bears evidence Of hay-
ing been written by Shimida Saburo, a
well known politician and publicist,
who belongs to the opposition party
and represents Yokohama in the lower
house.
He was once vice president of the
house and since the first opening of
the diet has been successful at every
election.
