ent, standing behind the troops, saw
mangled corpses Of persons Of all ages
and both sexes strewing the ground.
One boy OF u had his skull pierced
and rent by bullets. Great splashes
and streams OF blood stained the snow.
Only few OF the victims remained
alive, for the fatal volley was fired at
distance Of not more than 20 PAGES,
and SO the ambulances had little work
to do. The police recruited q large
number of droshkys (sleighs) to carry
on the dead. Heartrending scenes were
witnessed as wives, husbands and
mothers came up to claim their dear
ones, and We're carried of with them
in the sleighs. Meanwhile the crowd
had drifted up the Nevsky Prospect yell
ing: "Murderers! murderers!" and the
square resumed its calm aspect. the
troops returning to their stations.
It was now the turn for the crowd
stationed at the Morskaia entrance to
the square, where the horse guards re-
peated the exploit with which they had
cleared the Moika and drove the peo-
pie pell nell down the thoroughfare
From thenceforward the palace square
ceased to be the center of interest
The troopers moved off down the
street, the crowds shrieking, murder
GUS dogs" but quickly vanishing be-
fore them. A few who were wounded
were picked up and conveyed to drug
store on the opposite corner of the
Grand Morskaia and the Nevsky Pros
pect.
Officers Mobbed. 49,
The wilder element in the crowd had
now got the upper hand and proceeded
to attack every officer in sight. A gen
eral. driving up the Nevsky Prospect,
was mobbed with shouts Of murderer"
His sword was captured as trophy,
the crowd shouting "hurrah!" Another
general was nearly dragged from his
sleigh, but clutched the driver desper-
ately, and in escaping was struck on
the bald head by a glass bottle and
stunned. Swords were wrenched from
several passing officers and the crowd
shouted: Break their swords, but do
not beat them"
The appearance of several companies
of infantry restored order, but the
crowd refused to dispense and several
volleys were fired and number of peo-
pie killed.

PLEADS FOR LOST CAUSE
Baltimore Professor Urges South to Maintain
Principles Of COnfederacy.

Prof. Henry +. Shepherd, imam address
at the celebration of Confederate Memo
rial Day at London Park, Baltimore,
made a vigorous protest against the
growing tendency among Southern
people to blot out the lines OF distinction
and individuality Oi itheircause, especially
in their Memorial Day celebrations, and
also made n protest against the idea
that it was better fOr the South to have
failed in the conflict, lest it should not
have succeeded in it's career OF govern
ment.
He condemned what he termed the
growing tendency of this generation to
teach that "A great question of right and
wrong can rightly be settled by force OF
arms. and that, consequently, the south
ern cause was wrong because il failed.
He appealed To the Southern women and
mothers present To be faithful To their
duty in teaching theerroneousness OF this
idea to their children, and also to see
that the principles aud individuality oi
the South's cause and its history be III
stilled into the very life blood oi the chill

WARM WEATHER HELPS
Get Rid Of Your Catarh by Using fiyOmsi Now

Everyone who ascatarrh should take
advantage of the warm weather to get
rid of this annoying and distressing
disease. The right treatment, faithfully
followed. in May or June, will benefit
much more quickly than in the Winter
and early Spring.
Do not try to cure catarrh OF the head
and throat 10y taking drugs into the
stomach. 1t cannot be cured in that
manner. The only way in which this too
common disease can be cured is through
a direct application OF Hyomei that will
kill the germs OF catarrh and prevent
theirgrowth.
The first days use of Hyomei will show
a decided improvement, and IN a short
time. especially if used at this season Of
the wear. there will be no further trouble
from catarrh.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
The complete outfit costs but one dollar,
and if after using you can say that the
treatment has not helped you, X. n.
Goolrick will return your money. y
