KOMURA HOME,
SEES EMPEROR
Gapan'S Chief Peace PlenipOt0ntiary to
Portsmouth arrives al Toxic.

Reception at Station Quiet-Driyes Through
Guarded Streets TO Imperial Pal

nv MikadO,
by MikadO.

Toxic. Oct. 16.-Baron Komura, the
foreign minister who acted as chief
peace plenipotentiary for Japan, arrived
here today from Vancouver, B. c., Oct.
8. His reception at the railroad station
was not enthusiastic, those present be-
ing principally government dignitaries.
The streets were strongly guarded by
troops, police and gendarmes. The
Baron drove to the palace in an imperl-
I al carriage.
The Emperor showed exceptional
honor to Komura by despatching to Yo-
kohama, where he landed from the En-
press of India, Col. Inouye, his majes-
,sty's aide de camp who went alongside
the steamer IL a despatch boat and
brought Komura ashore. Baron Komura
landed at the imperial enclosure. While
the Baron was on his way to Toxic by
train Col. Inouye constantly kept at
Komura's side, and on arrival here they
drove together to the palane in an I'M
perial carriage sent from the household
stables. The emperor Immediately re-
ceived Baron Komura, the audience last
ing an hour. The emperor honored the
Baron with written personal message,
highly priced by Japanese statesmen.
The message expressed satisfaction at
the fact that peace was concluded and
commended Komura's S able services as
shown during the negotiations.
The official translation of the imperi-
al rescript announcing the conclusion of
peace, is in part as follows:
"We have always deemed it a funda-
mental principle of our international
policy to maintain peace in the east and
thus insure the security of our empire,
and the promotion of this high object
has heretofore been our constant aim;
but last year, for reasons dictated by
the necessity of self preservation we,
unfortunately, were forced into hostili-
ties with Russia.
"After twenty months of war, the
position of the empire has been much
strengthened and the interests of the
country advanced, and in so much as we
have never wavered in our desire for
the maintenance of peace, it is contrary
to our will that hostilities should be
protrocted and that our people should
unnecessarily be subjected to the hor-
rors of war.
'"The Russian plenipotentiaries have
agreed to the proposals of our plenipo-
tentaries which were essential, having
in view the objects of the way and the
maintenance Of peace in the East, thus
manifesting the sincerity of their desire
for peace. We have examined the
terms agreed upon by the plenipoten-
tiaries, and, having found them in en-
tire conformity with our will, we have
accepted and ratified them.
"Peace and glory having thus been
secured, we are happy to invoke the
blessing of the benign spirits of our an
cestors and to be able to bequeath the
fruits of these great deeds to our pos
terity. 1t is our earnest desire to share
the glory with our people and long en-
Joy the blessings of peace with all ma
tions.

WAS IT A SUICIDE OR A MURDER I

Richmond, Va, Oct. In Front
Royal yesterday, Samuel w. Richard
son, a man of means and prominence in
that place, was found dead on the floor
of the meat market of which he was
proprietor. His throat was cut, and
there was a long and sharp butchers
knife beside him.
Whether it was murder or suicide has
not been determined, but it is said that
Richardson had been detected because
the girl to whom he was attached had
becJ Jme the wife of another. The mat
ter is being investigated to determine
the cause of death.
The father of the dead man is M. c.
Richardson, treasurer of Warren Coun-
ty, Virginia.
CONFEDERATE .CoLoRs BUT ONCE.
In the miles of decorations which will
meet the gaze of President Roosevelt
Wednesday, the Confederate colors,
from present indications, will occur only
once. Three small silken battle flags OF
the 'Lost Cause" fly from the front Of
the Hall of R. E. Lee Camp Confeder-
ate Veterans, but they are so surround
ed by the voluminous folds of the stars
and stripes as to be scarcely noticeable.
Thousands of small American flags
were sent to the public schools to be de-
livered to the children, who will have
holiday Wednesday, in order that they
may greet the President.
At the elaborate luncheon to 400 peo-
pie to be given in his honor Wednesday
afternoon, all of the walters will be
white. They will be brought here from
Washington by the caterer.

ate means will find In "Mo-Ka" all

suites for "Mo-Ka" coffee have only
the satisfaction that they did not
waste more money on tasteless or
bad-tasting and unwholesome coffee

they would have avoided all this an
noyance.
''Mo-Ka" Is a home brand. 1t is
roasted at Saginaw and its full
strength, freshness, aroma and flavor
are preserved to the buyer. while the
air-tight package insures cleanliness
and purity. Those who have not as
yet tried "Mo-Ka" should do so at
once, and they will be thankful for
this advice from us. They will get
good coffee for less than the price Of

and exceeds by $4,000, 900 all the gold
mined that year in the Transvaal. that
Eldorado for which England waged one of
her most cruel and costly wars
noteworthy thing about this poultry
business, is the fact that comparatively
little capital is invested. it being carried
on as a bi-product of the farms and the
sales are nearly all profit.
Among the criticisms regarding prison
abor it is said that democratic Missouri
always and loudly declaiming against
trusts has through her legislature put up a
powerful prison trust. That they gather
up such characters as the James Brothers.
the Ford Brothers. the Gounger brothers
and all their brothers,in law convicted as
law breakers encourage them to work
under the inspiration of the cat o'nine
tails and then place the product of their
labor in market in direct competition with
the labors of those who maintain an
honest livelyhood. There is logic in
these criticisms. There is something
criminal in prison labor. The poultry
business is free from such objections, free
from trusts. from politics and free for all
with an almost unlimited field for opera
tions and market always calling for
more. Query, will the boasted time
honored and far famed Missouri mule
kick when these poultry statistics are
published through the state?
