Revolutionary Outrage.

ST. Petersburg, August 26.-Saturdays
unsuccessful attempt on the life of Pre-
mier Stolypin with its sickening, useless
slaughter of thirty-two persons, was fol-
lowed tonight by another revolutionary
outrage in which General Min, commander
of the Seminogsky guard regiment and
who since his promotion to be a gem
eral has been attached as a personal
adjutant to the suite Of the Emperor
was killed on the station platform at
Peterhof by young woman who fired
five shots into his body from an automatic
revolver and then without resistance sub
1nitted to arrest The capture of the girl
was effected by General Minis wife, who
held her until the arrival Of an officer.
This was the third successive attempt
on the life of General Min, who was con-
demned to death by the terrorists Inn
December on account of stern repression
pra cticed by a battalion under his COM
,nand and especially for the executions
of persons condemned by drumhead court
martial for being caught with arms.
General Min was returning from his
suramcr residence at Peterhof. and had
tnst greeted his wife and daughter on
the platform when a young woman-al-
most a girl-approached from behind and
fred two shots into his back, and tneh
three more into his body as 1t sank 10
the ground. Further shots were pre-
vented by Nine. MIN, VINO lHie" hci
upon the murderess and seized the nand
whiet held the pistol The woman dld
not attempt to escape, but she cautioned
Nine Min not to touch handbag, which
she had placed on the platform before
shooting the general, explaining it con-
tanned a bomb.
To the police the girl acknowledged
that she had done the deed, saying she
had executed the sentence of the fighting
organization of the social revolutionists,
but refused to give her name.
BY a remarkable mischance, General
Min only last week. after the conclusion
of the maneuvers at Krasnoye-Selo dis
missed the body guard. which had ac-
companied him since the first attempt
was made on his life, saying that the
ordinary police of Peterhof would be
sufficient to guard him.

HEBREW CHILDREN
MAY BE EXCLUDED
ORPHANS OF RUSSIAN MAsSA-
cRES MAY BE SENT BACK TO
COUNTRY FROM WHICH THEY
WERE BROUGHT.

New York. August 26.-The case of forty
Hebrew Russian children who arrived
here on Saturday on the steamer Amerika
was heard by the board of special inquiry
at the immigration station on Ellis Island
today, and the board, after celebrating,
decided that the children should be ex-
cluded from this country Accordingly
their deportations was ordered. This,
however, is not final, and the case has
already gone on appeal to Washington.
The children, all of them made orphans
by the recent massacres in Russia, were
gathered from the centers of the recent
trouble and brought here in charge of
Mrs. Sophie Peilmann of Berlin. Wealthy
Hebrews of this city supplied the funds
and secured homes throughout the coun-
try where the children could be sent.
Secretary Waldman of the United He
brew Charities appeared in behalf of the
children. He said there was no chance
that they would become charges on the
public. The board, after consideration of
the case, thought otherwise and an
nounced that the children were ordered
excluded.
Mr. Waldman said that the case would
be appealed and a decision is expected in
a few days. In the meantime the chill
dren will be well fed and well cared for
on Ellis Island.

Is Shot in the Back By a
Young GtI
ASSASSIN EASILY CAPTURED
General Min Had Long Been Marked
for Death on Account of
Alleged Harsh Methods
and crueltes.

st. Petersburg. August 26.-General Min,
commander of the Seminovsky guard
regiment who suppressed the riots at
Moscow last December, was assassinated
at Peterhof tonight.
General Min was at the railway station
with his family when he was killed.
The deed was committed by young
girl who fired Ave shots from a revolver
into his back killing him instantly.
Madam Min seized the assassin by the
hand and held her until the police ar
rived. After her arrest the girl showed the
police bomb lying in the station, telling
them to beware.
The death sentence had long hung over
the head of General Min owing to the
dIsfavor into which he had fallen because
of alleged harsh methods and cruelties.
1t was General (then Colonel Min who
commanded the Seminovsky regiment
when the people were shot down near the
Psychological institute in ST. Petersburg
on October 81. and who, 1t is stated, want
ed to set the buildings of the institution
on fire and roast the students inside Min
was sent by the Emperor to suppress the
disorders at Saratof after the assassina-
tion of Lieutenant General Sakaroff in
December last, and when the trouble at
that place was quelled, was dispatched
at the end of December to Moscow to as
sist in putting down the uprising there.
on April "a a member of the revolution
ist organization disguised an officer
who had called at Minis residence several
times and requested to see him, excited
the suspicion of the attaches of the
household and was arrested. 1t developed
that he was revolutionist. and was arm
ed with revolver and dagger.
On July IS last it was reported that
some of the soldiers of the Seminovsky
guards at Grasnoey-Selo had served no
tice on General Min that they intended
to kill him at the first opportunity for
forcing them to. murder their fellow citi-
zens in the Moscow revolt and. that Min

Several Officials Received Warn
ing Of Tragedy
RECALL STglS:<S9 9IN'S COURAGE
St. Pet 90 J Correspondent Says
an o 8 .caI Reforms Can Heal
% 1t Moral eanerene Eat
.ng at Soul of Nation.

London, August 26-Dispatches from
st. Petersburg to the newspapers this
morning supply some further details
concerning the attempt on the life of
the Russian premier NJ. Stolypin. 1t Is
stated that the man who threw or drop
ped the bomb was named Morosoff, and
that he was a native of Ryazan prov
ince. Among the killed were nearly all
the agents of the secret police in the
house, including four women detectives.
Several persons were warned before
hand that an attempt on the life of the
premier would be made. Nine. David
off, wife of the court chamberlain. who
was killed, says that her husband re-
ceived postcard Friday saying:
DO not go to where you intend go
ing"
Another official received a similar
warning. He feigned illness and thus
escaped.
Some of the accounts suggest that the
explosion was premature and that there
fore the escape of the premier was due
to the fact that the assasslns were part
ly intoxicated.
Apparent Indifference.
F.. All the newspapers comment on the APP
parent indifference of the Russian pub
lie with regard to such outrages, say
ing that this is either because their
frequency engenders callousness or be-
cause of sympathy with the revolution
lists. An interesting story is told of M.
stolypin. When he was governor of Sara
TOW the superintendent of police there
was being attacked by a mob Tor car
rying out orders that aroused heir RE-
sentiment. Stolypin seeing what was hap
pening rushed between the superintend-
ent and the angry crowd, exclaiming:
IF you want to kill the responsible
official it is l. The superintendent Is
but doing his duty. executing my or
ders. He had no choice but to carry
them out. 1t was / alone who issued
them, and here I am"
The crowd surprised at Stolypins s
courage silently skunk away.
The Daily Telegraph's st. Petersburg
correspondent commenting on the out
rage says:
mo political reforms can heal the
present moral gangrene which Is eat
ing away the soul Of the nation. Political
motives play hardly any part in the cpl
demic of loathsome crimes. The ideas of
right and wrong are wholly perverted.
Bestiality and humanity are now strug-
Cling for the upperhand. and the chances
are on the side of bestiality. II the con-
stitutional democrats were In power to-
morrow, the epidemic Of crime would
continue, for the struggle is not between
this party or that, but between rascal
dom and men of law and order"

MIXED at her regular time and al
lowed to run over to her next time
of milking, her udder becomes so full
and tight that she is In misery. This
is very unkind treatment. And such
treatment induces the udder to be-
come infamed and might injure it
and the milk also. Have definite
hour to milk and always milk when
that time comes. There is time to
milk, the same as there is a time to
eat and sleep. A man does not want
to miss his meals or his sleep and
he wants them on time and usually
gets them. 1t is JUST as reasonable,
that the cows should MIXED, fed and
watered at an appointed time. Some
people think a COW is nothing but a
cow and it matters not whether she
is MIXED and fed at regular hours
or whether it is done right, and when
they do milk her they will give her
few raps over the ribs with the
milk stool before they get her MIXED
and say, So there, or I'll break your
old neck" Then they'll quiet down
and go to milking as they would pump
ing water acting just as If the COW
had no more feeling than the pump
they were drawing water from.
The COW which does this can not do
her best. Be kind and patient with
the cows and they win repay you we'll

Told the Truth.

The editor of an Indiana paper
grew tired of being called a liar so
he announced that he would tell the
truth in the future. The first issue
thereafter contained the following.
John Jones, the LATEST merchant
in town, made trip TO Bellville yes
terday."
John, Smith, our groceryman is do
ing a poor business. His store is
dirty, dusty and noxiously odorifer-
Gus. How can he expect to do much?'
Rev. Chump preached last Sunday
night on charity. The sermon was

Dick Sims died at his home in this
place. The doctor gave it out as heart
failure. The fact is, he was drunk
and whiskey is what killed him.
"Married-Miss Sallie Adams and
Henry Hatch, last Saturday evening
at the Baptist parsonage. The bride
is a very ordinary town girl who
doesn't know any more than a jack
rabbit about cooking, and never helped
her mother three days in her life. She
is not a beauty by any means, and
she has a gait like a fat duck. The
groom is well known as an up-to-date
loafer. He's lived off the old folks
all his life and don't amount to shucks.
They will have hard life"
The paper had no sooner reached
the public than a committee was sent
to him bearing petition asking him
to continue in the good old way and
stated that they believed him to be
a truthful, honest man.

LEGAL HOLIDAYS ON RURAL
ROUTES

In reply to communication Of
Stephen Lyle, of Muskingum county,
Ohio, in which he states that the
order suspending service ON rural
routes on holidays should be revoked,
on the ground that it delays the de-
livery of considerable quantity of
mail. The fourth assistant postmaster
general says: After due consideration
of the matter, in view of the fact that
rural letter carriers are not allowed
any leave with pay, it was decided
to suspend service on all rural routes
on the following holidays New Years
day, Washington birthday, Decora-
tionday, Independence day, the first
Monday in September, known as Labor
day, and such as the president may
designate as Thanksgiving day. In

quired that on such days Offices must
be kept open sufficient length of
time to meet the public convenience.
Accordingly, patron of a rural route,
If it is necessary that he receives his
