and NOW diplomatic adviser of the
Korean government. as Stevens WAS
;,brut to leave for Washington.
Three shots were fired at Stevens
by Chang. the first bullet perhaps
fatally wounding NJ. w. Chun. who

ing under tie right shoulder BLADE
Ilc.r the spinal column and the other
q fcw inches lower. While the wounds
are serious. il is said that the chances
for Mr.. Stevens recovery are good.
The motive for the attack appar-
entity arises out of the resentment of
Il small group OF San Francisco ku-
rCanS to the Japanese protectoratc
over Korea and to the part played in
the reorganization of the Korean
government by Mr.. Stevens.
The First Attack
Monday night Stevens was attacked
at the F'airmont Hotel by four ko-
reanS who called to see him with
reference to an interview in which
Stevens had praised the work of the
Jananese in Korea. After Il fight
with fists and chairs. Stevens stood

rested.
Who Stevens Is
Toxic, March Eff the attempt to
asSaSSinate Durham w. Stevens in
San Francisco by Koreans is success
full Stevens will be a martyr to the
cause of Korea. in which he was very
deeply interested. 1t is believed here
that the attempted assassination was
d blow aimed directly at Marquis Ito
by the disSruntlede selement who pre-
vented the continuance of the former
regime which Ito continually de-
nOunced as corrupt ring. Stevens
was ItOs chief adviser and close
friend. He did asSiduouS work in
Korea until recalled in November to
assist the Japanese foreign office in
concluding satisfactory arrangements
in regard to- immigration. Mr.. Stew
ems WAS extremely popular among

Monte Christon king of melo-
dramas, will be the bill at the Opera

Fred G. Conrad production as ar
ranged by Eugene Moore, one of the

TERRIBLE FACTS.

A bulletin just issued announ-
ces the following terrible facts,
CLEANED by government experts
ordered by Secretary Garfield,
Of the Department Of the Interi-
or, to Investigate the nature and
extent Of mining accidents and
make suggestions as to how they
may be prevented.
The coal mines Of the United
States are killing three times as
many men per 1000 employed
as those Of most European coun-
tries. In the past twelve years
22,640 men have given up their
lives in the mines of this country.
The number Of fatalities each
year is now double that Of 1895.

HOW LAFAYETTE FEELS.

An Indication of the sentiment
of the Lafayette county Dem
ocracy in regard to the guber-
material situation is the recep-
ton of the Cowherd petition
which Horace Blackwell passed
around the latter part of last
week and the first part of this.
No one to whom the petition was
shown had a bad thing to say
about Mr.. Cowherd and only
three refused to sign it. Their
reason was that if possible they
wanted to vote for Judge Fort or
some one running on 1Ufe plat
form Of statewide prohibition.
Mr. Cowherd's boom possibly
was started too soon according
to the laws Of mob psychology.
Machine methods in promulgat-
ing it have been absolutely lack
ing. None of the well known or
binary political tricks have been
resorted to by him or his lieut.
enants. In fact he has no part
ocular lieutenants.
He needs no one to go around
prating of his virtues; he needs
no one to make questionable
deals to get him votes; he needs
no heelers. Ever since he an
nounced his candidacy for the
nomination, it has been clear
that he would be chosen. His
popularity is unbounded; his
integrity, loyalty and democracy
unquestioned. Undoubtedly he
is a winner.
The Democrats Of Missouri
believe Mr.. Bryan to be the best
candidate for the Presidential
nomination; but some doubt the
expediency of giving it to him.
Mr.. Cowherd is not only only the
best man in Missouri for the
goyernorship, but the man in thC
Democratic party to pull the
largest vote in the election.

A number OF subscribers to
the INTELLIGENCER have called
or written during the past week
and paid up their subscriptions.
The management is grateful to
these for their loyalty and help.
Some have written that they no
longer desire the paper, paid
their subscriptions to date and
cancelled. A few have merely
refused to take their papers from
the post Office, possibly believing
that the act of refusal settles
their Indebtedness. But it does
not, and every effort will be
made to get these old subscrip-
tions settled for. Everyone who
has come to the Office has ex-
pressed himself as being heartily
in favor of the cash in advance
plan, as it will obviate all pos
sibility of a mans having a paper
forced on him and no paper will
lose a cent because of delinquent
subscribers. The number Of
renewals during the past week
has been indeed gratifying and
the indications are that com.
paratively few names will have tC
be dropped from the mailing list
on April 1, when all delinquents
