-One OF the most remarkable cures
ever recorded in Louisa County Is
that Of Mrs. Minnie Hart of this place.
Mrs. Hart was in bed for eight
months and when she was able to sit
up she was all drawn up on one side
and could not walk across the room.
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. Speak
ing OF her cure, Mrs. Hart says:
Yes. Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after was in bed for eight months
and l know the cure was complete for

News having been received that
peace negotiations At Portsmouth are
approaching q conclusion, the CORE
spondent Of the Associated Press has
made q survey of all the Russian DO.
sttions from Mongolia to headquarters,
the object in part being to ascertain
the manner in which the efforts max
ing for peace were viewed by the

successful conclusion, the army keep
ing in q state Of preparation for bat

witch OF . telegram from Emperor
Nicholas declaring that the treaty had
been signed and that his majesty &C.
cepted the conditions arrived at.
This telegram was onicially pub
lished In the army newspapers on Sep
tember 9Th, and the outlines of the
peace conditions were printed in the
same publication to-day.
The officers thereafted observed mil
itary decorum in the strictest sense,
but the soldiers, with the consent Of
the omcers, engaged in feasting and
other forms of celebration. 1t will be
. week more before the entire army
is fully informed OF the conclusion of
peace. but the news was discounted
long since by the prevailing convic-
ton that since the appointment OF the
plenipotentiaries peace was a fore
gone conclusion.
1t may be said that to the great
majority Of the officers and men so far
informed the news that the war is at
an end is most welcome. Thousands
are daily drinking to the health of
President Roosevelt. The correspon-
dent, who is the only remaining for
eign newspaper representative with
the Russian army. was everywhere
asked by the men II he was an Amer1-
can and on being answered in the
affirmative. they captured him and
tossed him many times in the air after
the manner Of the Cossacks, while
their officers gently protested against
the seemingly questionable form of
their admiration.
Everywhere along the railway where
newspapers could be obtained soldiers
eagerly scanned the news and then ex-
pressed their joy by singing, which
they continued late into the night, at
intervals cheering for President Roose-
welt.
The officers are holding races at

Toxic. Sept. ia mass meeting at
Osaka passed the following resolution
without hindrance ON the part Of the

The peace that has Just been con-
cluded between Russia and Japan for
feits the fruits Of victory and sows
seeds Of future complications and dan
ger. The governments high-handed
and unconstitutional measure has 70.

the peace Of the city In which the
Mtkado resides. The empires honor

constitution lost. Never has our coun-
try been brought to face greater dan
ger. Therefore. be 1t resolved, that We
hope that the humiliating peace agree
ment will be broken and the govern
ment will resign
In accordance with established
usage. the Cabinet ministers have pre-
sented an oficial statement to the
mikado explaining the necessity of in.
stituting martial law at the capital and
at the same time asking the imperial
judgment as to whether they should
remain in ONCE or retire.
The Emperor's reply, which was
made to-day. advises them to retain
their respective posts.
The special session of the privy
council to-day lasted four hours. No
bill was presented. only a report from
the Cabinet ministers. Premier Kat
sura making an extended statement
OF the peace negotiations.
According to the constitution, q
treaty with other powers requires to
be submitted to the council before rati-
hcation. 1t is unusual to hold a spe-
cial sitting for simply making a report
on diplomatic affairs before a treaty
assumes form ready for ratification,
and the sitting to-day. without spe.
cial bill, was rather unexpected.
Opposition political parties have ap-
pointed an extensive committee to
fully report on sufferings alleged to
have been caused by the police dur
ing the recent rioting. The progress
sives and their local branches continue
to press resolutions against the gov.
ernment. The Shiba branch condemns
the governments assumption OF the
power to suspend newspapers. declar.
Ing 1t to be wholly unconstitutional.
Quiet, however. prevails in Toxic.
