tack today on the office of the Koku-
min Shimbun, the government organ
A mob attacked and burned the official
residence of the minister of home af-
fairs, which stood between the Mobiles
club and the Imperial hotel. Threaten
ing demonstrations occurred in the
neighborhood of the official homes of
Premier Katsura and Baron Komura,
foreign minister, who is now in the
United States, but the police succeed
ed in preventing injury to the occu-
pants or damage to the house.
The situation tonight is threatening.
Turbulent crowds fill the streets and it
is feared much damage to property is
possible under the cover of darkness.
All the police reserves are performing
urgent duty and heavily guarding dan
ger spots. The streets in the neighbor-
hood of the Kokumin Shimbun are
closed and 200 police form a Gordon

The destruction of the home mission

CHRISTIAN CHURCHES BURNED

Thirteen cars and one railway KIOSK
were destroyed. Twenty persons were
wounded during the clashes with the
police, and many others slightly
wounded by stones in the crushes of
the crowds The disturbance in the
Kanda district of the city proved not
to be serious
They first threatened to burn the
Russian cathedral, but a sergeant of
the guard cleverly prevailed upon them
to desist by telling the crowd that If
the cathedral was destroyed he and the
guard would commit suicide. The
crowd agreed not to touch the cathe-
dral.
There was considerable disorder and
noise in the district, but there was no
destruction of property and no serious
clashes with the police. The demon
strations against the Metropolitan po-
lice headquarters continued until a
late hour. Crowds swarmed around
the Jail and hooted and threatened.
The newspapers generally assail the
police authorities for withdrawing
street patrols and leaving the city un-
protected. Soldiers are proving to he
more effective than the police in hand
ling the crowds. The soldiers are
popular and the crowds generally obey
their orders.
Accompanying the ordinance declar-
ing martial law is an urgency ordl-
nance increasing restrictions on the
press and giving authority for the sus-
pension of papers guilty of increasing
the excitement and encouraging
breaches of order. Under this ordi-
nance the government has suspended
the publication of the Miyako, the
Yurozu and the Niroku.
The Toxic municipality has passed
resolution denouncing the terms and
favoring the abandonment of the peace
treaty.

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. Oak, April 17.-Quite
sensation has been created here by
the publication of the story of G.. w.
Gray, who after a special treatment
for three months was PROSTATE and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr..
Gray, there is remedy which will
cure it even in the most advanced
stages. This is what he says:
Il was helpless as little babe. My
wife and I searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Br1ght's Disease, hoping that 1 would
be able to find remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. praise God
Tor the day when l decided to do So
Tor this remedy met every phase of
my case and in a short time l was
able to get out Of bed and after a few
weeks treatment l was a strong well
man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved NV
life.'
A remedy that will cure Bright's
disease will cure any lesser Kidney
disease. Dodd's Kidney Pills are GER
talnly the most wonderful discovery
which modern medical research has
given to the world.

Recently a monkey got the better Of

by feigning illness. He was fastened

When he was on his perch the crows
annoyed him by stealing from his por-
ringer on the ground.
One morning they had been special
ly disagreeable. He closed his eyes
and feigned a bad illness. When his
days food was brought the crows de-
scended upon it, and he had scarcely
strength to defend it.
BY good acting he managed to cap
ture one of the crows. To pluck it
alive was the obvious course. Then,
instead of pulling it to pieces, like the
king monkey whom Kipling and Sir

its own companions fell upon it and
killed it.
