OF JAPANESE OFFICIAL

WASHINGTON, April q. - The
search for presidents as to interna
tional salutes which have been forced
by or upon the United States by mis-
takes of judgment and other offenses
against international comfy resulted
yesterday in the discovery in the files
of the navy department of a report to
Gideon Welles, secretary of the navy
in the cabinets of Lincoln and john
son, from Commander j. Blakeley

United States steamship Oneida, who

offense committed against bluejackets
of the United States navy. $500 .
The following is Commander Creigh-
tons letter to Secretary Welles, which
is copied from the report of the oper-
ations of the Asiatic squadron from
October. 1867, to December, 1868, made
by Admiral J. c. Rowan, command
ing:

This execution was witnessed by
me at the request of our minister,
General r. Il. Van Valkenbergh, and

II left the legation at about 9 p. m.
in company with the officers attached
to the foreign legations and proceed

a guard who escorted us to the tenn

LADIES!! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandmothers
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark. glossy and album
dant. Whenever her hair fell out or
took on that dull, faded or streaked
appearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of- date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 80 cent bottle Of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" you will get this famous
old recipe which can be depended
upon TO restore natural color and
beauty to the hair and is splendid
for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp
and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t

and after another application or two,
it becomes beautifully dark. glossy.

we were conducted by the Japanese
officials into what appeared to be the
principal room of the temple, which
was lighted with candles, and in front
of the altar was a raised platform
of about a foot In height which eX-
tended across the room and which
was placed on the right of the altar,
within few feet of where the exc
cution was to take place, with the
Japanese officials on the left.
"In front of the altar was a green
cloth and in front of that red one.
We were informed that the eXecu-

mats on the platform we waited the

"In a few moments the prisoner
came in. dressed in the usual Japan
csc dress of a person of rank, ac-
companled by the eXecutioner, who
was his pupil and most intimate
friend. He walked with a steady,
firm step in front of the altar, where
he knelt in prayer. He then arose
and went to the red cloth, where he
knelt and made the confession that
he was the officer that ordered his
troops to fire upon the foreigners and
also to fire upon them when they
were trying to escape and that he
was sorry for what he had done
He then disrobed himself to his
waist and reached out for knife

into his bowels. and drawing it toward

with one blow from his sword,

The covering OF the garbage cans would
take away a great deal OF the rat food
