8 The Okubo Assassination. The Toklo correspondent of tlio Ban Francisco "Bullotln" gives the particulars of the assassination, on the morning of the 14th of May, of Mr., Okubo, minister of the interior of the Japanese empire. The day named had been let apart for a speolal meeting of the emperor's cabinet at the Dal-Jo-Kwan, near the palace, and about eight o'clock In the morning, Mr. Okubo left his residence in a carriage, to attend the oouncil. Just before reaoblng the palaoe gate, at an open space near one of the oity moats, his carriage was suddenly topped by a band of armed assassins, six in number, who were lying In wait for htm. The assassins were each armed with Swords J they first killed one of the horses and the ooachman ; they then fell upon the minister, who was entirely unarmed and helpless, and hacked him almost to plocos. The place at which this assassination oc curred is almost the identical spot whore the unsuccessful attempt upon Mr. Jura kura's life was made by a band of assassins in 1873. It is within a stone's throw of the great gate leading to the emperor's palaco, and, althrough it is In the heart of a city containing over 1,000,000 of iuhubl tants, containing a police force of ovor 13,000 men, this brutal assassination was committed in broad daylight, with all the deliberation imaginable. The porpetrators of this assassination were of the old Samurad or privileged class. The six men who committed this deed, after washing the blood from their hands, walked deliberately to the palace gate aud surrendered thomsolves up to the sergeant on duty, telliug him at the same time what they had done, and givlug their roasons therefor. The day after the as sassination the emperor conferred upon Okubo the posthumous title of U-Dai-Jin, and sent his family a present of 5,000 yen. On the 17th the remains wero carried in great state to their last resting place, ac companied by the various members of the foreign diplomatic corps, and an immense throng of civil aud military officers. The burial service, which was exceedingly in teresting, was conducted after the manner of the Btate religion Hhinto of Japan. " Waiting at the River." As the Irishman stood waiting at the river for it to run by in order that he might cross over, so people wait when suffering with constipation, forgetful that the cause is torpid liver and dyspepsia, and that it never cures itself, but must be overcome by some gentle yet positive cathartic. No medicines yet discovered give such prompt and permanent relief as Dr. Pierce's Pleas ant Purgative Pellets. Pine Apple, Wilcox Co., Ala. Dr. Pierce, Builalo, N. Y.: Dear Kir I was sickly from youth up, for seven years life was a burden, my food would not digest, and my liver was en larged. I tried various remedies, but to no purpose. Your Pellets have effected my entire cure. Inclosed please find 11.60 for a copy of the People's Common Sense Medical Adviser. I regard it as the best book ever published. I am trying to get others to use your medicines and read your book. Yours truly, JOHN E. LUNAN. t3y A short time since Harvey Wilson escaped from an officer in York county, who had arrested him for assault and bat tery with the intont to kill and stealing a horse. It having been learned that the fugitive had returned to his home three officers stationed themselves near Wilson's residence. Early Saturday morning he was seen approaching the barn to feed the stock. As he reached the stable door one of the officers proceeded to take htm into custody, but the accused, after threatening to shoot the man, shut the door in his face. The officers took their places at different points about the barn, and while they were watch ing, Wilson emerged from an opening. Joseph M'Abee, oue of the sentinels, no ticed him and demanded his surrender. Wilson swore that if he did not get out of the way he would shoot him. M'Abee stepped back an fired, the ball entering Wilson's abdomen, causing death in fifteen minutes. Two of the brothers of the de ceased are under arrest for the commission of crime. The Peruvian Syrup Is an iron tonic, prepared expressly to supply the Blood with its iron element. Being free from alcohol in any form, its energizing effects are not followed by corresponding reaction, but are permanent, infusing strength, vigor and new life into all parts of the system, and building up an iron constitution. It is an excellent sub stitue for wine or braudy where a stimulant is needed. Bold by all druggists. Jonas Miller, of Montgomery Co., was recently out gunning with a double barreled fowling piece, and tried to in spect the barrels by placing the gun stock on the ground. He struck the hammers with one of his knees, when both barrels were discharged into his breast, causing instant death. t3T While four men were taking shelter under a tree on last Wednesday morning, about midway between Summit City and Ilaymilton, Venango county, lightning struck the tree, instantly killing Thomas Donaldson and his son ; also severely in juring his son-in-law and a man named Fink the latter probably fatally.
