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.
