PLOT TO KILL THE CAR
Concerted Attack Planned on
Palace at .Tsarskoe SeIo.
Greatest Terrorist Conspiracy Since
the One of E%ighty.two Years Ago
Fooled by Accidental Discovery.

London. - The Daily T%elegraph's
st. Petersburg correspondent reports
the accidental discovery and foiling
of the greatest terrorist plot since the
great Decemberist conspiracy eight
two years ago. The correspondent
says he has hesensational story from
trustworthy sources.
According to these versions no
fewer than eighty >conspirators re-
solved a couple Of months ago to as
sassinate Emperor Nicholas, and
plans were made to carry out the
deed at Easter. The plotters includ-
ed reserve officers and other officials
and civilians whose loyalty hitherto
had been undoubted. A large num-
Der of conspirators, the correspond
ent says, was made necessary by the
great precautions taken nowadays to
protect imperial ~personages.
The plan was, the correspondent
says, to approach Tssrskoe Selo in
groups and then execute a sudden
and daring attack on the palace. The
first group, consisting Of thirty-four
men, arrived on the Russian Good
Friday, when, from some NEAR IN
known, suspicious against them were
aroused and the whole t~h1rty-four
were arrested at Tsarskoe Selo. Doc
uments found in their possession led
to the apprehension of the other
members of the band in st. Peters,
burg. --....

Hunting Big Game.

In the East African protectorate
last season $3.50 head Of game were
killed by sportsmen from all parts Of
the world. The most dangerous sport
of all, and that which President
Roosevelt is looking forward to when
his term of Office ends, is lion hunt
ing; not batting in the orthodox fash
ion of stalking, but driving them on
horseback and riding them down.
The beasts lie low in the long grass
when hard pressed and spring on
their pursuers in all the blind fury
of despair. Frederick Shaw Kennedy
killed seven lions on a recent trip.

THE GREAT DESTROYER
SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT
THE VICE OF NTEMPE1;ANCE.
Poem: How My Boy Went Down
A lawyers Story - Crusade
Against Absinthe in Switzerland
-Jiuuor Ruins Thousands.

It was not on the field of battle,
It was not with a ship at sea,
But a fate far worse than either
That stole him away from me.
Twas the death III the tempting wine-cup
That the reason and senses drown;
He drank the alluring poison,
And thus my boy went down.
Down from the heights of manhood,
To the depths of disgrace and sin;
Down to a worthless being,
From the hope Of what might have been.
For the brand of a beast besotted
; He bartered his manhood's CROWN.
Through the gate of a sinful pleasure
My poor, weak boy went down.
IT'S only the same old story
That mothers 30 often tell.
With accents of infinite sadness,
Like the tones of a funeral bell;
But I never thought, once when ! heardl j,
I should learn all its meaning L.ysef;
I thought he'd be true to dis mother
I thought he'd be true to himself.
But, alas! for my hopes, all delusion!
Alas! for his youthful pride!
Alas! who are safe when danger
Is open on every side?
o, can, nothing destroy this great evil?
No bar in its pathway be thrown,
To save from the terrible maelstrom
The thousands of Boys going down?

Real Estate in Korea.

One of the most astonishing regu-
lations has been made regarding the
transfer Of real estate in Korea. No
one is to be allowed to sell or buy
real estate except by express per-
mission of the Governor. This is ap-
parcntly a move on the part of the
Japanese to prevent. the selling of
any land i'll Korea except to people
that they approve. for the Governors
arc, of course, under the Japanese
advisers. 1t makes nc difference that
foreigners have as good a right to
buy land rs the Japanese. The mat
ter will have to be tested in the court
before the Powers will allow their
citizens to be curtailed in their priv
ileges in the pcrinsula.-horea

A Sermon on Intemperance.

A lawyer in Chicago relates that
going home one night from his Office
he was .accosted by a blear-eyed-
blotched beggar clad in rags. Look
ing at him more closely, he asked his
name. His suspicion was confirmed.
1t was an old college friend, the
brightest man of his year.
"Give me a dollar for old acQuain-
lance sake" whined Misery piteously.
What has happened to you?" said
his friend. You have been in trou-
BILE. Why did you not let me know"
The tramp eyed him wistfully.
"No trouble" he said, but Of my
own making. 1 succeeded well
enough for some time, but I went in
to company. and drank hard. Not
at first, but I could soon drink as
much as any of them. It became a
habit. After carousing into the
small hours, I was not A. for bust
ness next day. One good chance af-
ter another I let slip through by be-
ing unnerved, until my partners got
rid Of me, and 1 sank to this"
His friend looked at him pitifully.
He said, You can make a new start
out here, and I will help you" "No,"
said the other, II have lost energy
and hope. Give me enough money to
get a meal and a bed. That is all
you can do for me-"
His friend pleaded with him, but
to no purpose. He took him to G.
restaurant and fed him, and found
him a decent lodging for the night.
The next morning he went to see
him, but during the night he had
committed suicide. Slain by the
liquor that had ruined Thousands

A boy fifteen years old, who had
just organized q temperance band Of
twelve boys for temperance work in
his own town, was taken quite i'll.
When the doctor ordered hot whisky
to be given him. and it was offered to
him by his mother, he refused to
take it, saying, Mother, if I take it
and live, 1 could not face the boys
with a broken pledge; if I die, tell
the boys I kept my pledge--kept If
for them" The eleven boys are men

Oh, sweet is the Masters call to rest;

And some on the Saviour's tender breast

Forgetting the sorrow and anguish wild
And Himself hath carried them home to

And nearer to live from day to day
To the home that never shall pass away,
Till our hearts last longings Himself shall

that Hudson Strait is navigable for

may be increased without much risk
