Tbe wounded were transported to Ilelsingfors. Colonel Nararoff was bayoneted. lie begged for transportation to the hospit al, promising forgiveness in exchange. Instead he was stoned and threwn into the water with a stone tied around his neck. Ilelsingfors, Aug, 1. A gigantic mil itary conspiracy, aiming at tho simul taneous capture of Russia's three great sea fortresses, Oonstadt, Sevastopol and Sveaborg, arranged by the Revolu tionary Military league, was prema turely sprung here yesterday by an at tempt to arrest members of a company of sappers who had mutinied on ac count of the death of one of their com rades, alleged to have been due to ill treatment. The entire garrison of the fortress at Sveaborg flamed out instantly in revolt. All the artillery and sappers garrison ing the plice were invoked. Only four companies of Infantry remained loyal. The mutineers sbized 40 machine guns and practically all the quick-firers and light artillery in the fortress, but even with this aid they wero unable to hold the main fort against tho loyal infant ry. The fighting continued all night long. The heaviest firing was heard from 10 o'clock in the evening until 1 In the morning. WILL OPEN DOOR. Baron Komura Says Japan Will Keep Treaty Pledgos. Victoria, B. 0., Aug. 1. Baron K mnra, recently appointod Japanese am bassador to Great Britain, arrived to day by the Canadian Pacific railroad steamer Kmpree&of Japan on bis way to London, via Quebec, from where he sails by the Kmpress of Ireland on August 0. Ha ron Komura said with regard to Japanese action in Manchuria that the Japanese government would undoubted ly carry out all the pledges mado bofore and nince tbe war to maintain "tho open door" in Manchuria. Regarding th criticism of foreign merchants, he said these were due to impatience. Tiie terms of occupation demanded tkat Japan adopt the measures now in vogue, but as soon as tho military occupation was ended and this would be soon, ar rangements would be maie to carry out the pledges regarding an "open door" policy. Tiue, the bulk of the army bfed been repatriated, but there was still a large force ii Manchuria. There was also Russian troops in occupation. While It was not known definitely what Russia was doing regarding tbe with drawal, it was known that troops were steadily being withdrawn and it was necessary that tho Japanese military administration continue to occupy the country until the withdrawal was com plete. "Has Balny been made a freo port and are other nations than Japanese re stricted from trading via that port with Manchuria?" "That I cannot fell you." replied Baron Komura. "This murh I can say, though, the pledges mado by Japan re garding Manchuria will bo carried out in every particular as soon aa tho term of occupation by the military forces has expired."

Wilson's Opinion on Effect of .Meat of Meat Inspection Law. Washington, July 80. Secretary Wilson today declared that, as a result of tne new meat Inspection law and the rules promulgated by him, a radical change for tbe better would occur. "Within a very short space of time, ' he said, "tbe meat products of the TJnited States will be purer and more wholesome than any similar products of the world. The conditions existing in some of tbe slaughtering and pack ing houses abroad are about as bad as Sube imagined, and the American people henceforth will enjoy a distinct advantage over the foreign consumers. dtnm , r I - it 1. ui particular importance ib me ruio providing for weekly Inspection reports to be supplied tbe bureau of animal in dustry. Without such reports it would be difficult to cope with tbe situation. As a general proposition, however, the law will be complied with in every de tail, but I ehall take nothing for grant ed, and will make the inspections in every establishment that the law reach es rigid and complete." It has not been determined when the rules governing the interstate transpor tation nbaso of tbe auetttion will be is sued. The secretary is in almost daily conference with railroad men, particu larly from the West, and from these be has already gathered a considerable amount of data on tbe subject. It is believed at tho department that the railroads will not be less sincere in complying with tbe law than the pack ers. In fact, it waB stated today tnat tbey have evinced a- determination to co-operate with tbe department in every way In ord&r that those meat products which bear the government label shall find their way into other than the states from which tbey were shipped.

Every normal boy loves to have a few pigeons about tho barnyard, and no normal parents will object to their boyg satisfying this natural tasto for inch choice, pretty fowls. And such pretty pigeon bouses may bo built of old lumber and broken-up packing boxes, tbo boy being his own carpenter. These little houses should bo built a prope distance abovo tho ground, but not too high to be easily reached by tho boy who Is attending to tho rearing of tbo fowls. It Is a good plan to build, say, a four-room house. This will accommodate four pairs of pigeons. And bo very careful in buy ing your pigeons to know that they are mates, for pigeons are very particular in the matter of choosing companions, and when once mated they cannot be Induced to change their nffectlons. Of course, you must have boxes, about fifteen Inches square, for nesta. In these boxes you will place the terra cotta nest pans, which are trifling in cost, being had for about 5 cents or less each. Itwlco a day In summer put fresh water In the pigeon house, for pigeons love pure, fresh water, and their health depends upon having IL Onco every Armed Bandits Secure Large Sums of Government Money. Warsaw, July 30. Two daring train robberies were committed in Russian Poland today, one of them resulting in a cuneiderable loss of life. A train from tbe frontier station of Herby, bound for Czentochowa, was carrying money received from the custom house to the branch Imperial bank under protection of seven frontier guardsmen General Zukat, chief of the frontier guards;. General Weltering and Captain Latruma were passengers. Fifteen persons boarded the train at a way station.

Then tou need take only a sheet of thin pasteboard a visiting card Is the best and punch a tiny hole In It with a pin. Give it to any one in tho gath ering and tell him to hold tbe card tip to a strone llebt so that the little hole will be about eight Inches from the eye. Then give him the pin and tell him to hold It, head up, between his eye and the hole In the card. This is -what he will see: Tbo pin tha he Is holding will seem to vanish, and Instead of it there will be an image of a pin upside down in the air 'behind the little hole In the card. No matter who tries It the result will be tbe same. morning cleanse the vessels holding the water, for otherwise they would soon accumulate dirt and becomp unwhole some. Feed your pigeons ordinarily cracked corn, wheat and millet During their breeding time It is well to add some Ca nadlnn pease to their diet Their meals should occur three times a day, like our own, breakfast at 7 or 8 o'clock, dinner at 12 or 1 o'clock, and supper at 5 In the evening. Plenty of gravel - and grit must be supplied also, the ground-up oyster sheila, charcoal and salt being a fine "digester" for them. All over the floor In their house sprinkle gravel and sand, and some might be kept In the yard about their quarters. As pigeons love bathing and need It you must supply a bath tub a shal low pan. for their bouse. Keep this filled dally with fresh water. If you would have success attend your efforts at pigeon raising you must study the matter carefully and take tbe greatest pains with your work. Like every other undertaking. It requires time and attention, with plenty of com mon sense, to raise plgeoas, and the boy who does not possess these qualiflca. tlons would better not attempt It, but leave tho work to his more industrious and willing brother. Game of Xoted Men. The hostess begins by saying: "I know a celebrated poet, the first part of whoso nnmo is very black, and tho last Is an elevation." The player, responding "Coleridge," in turn describes the name of some oth er noted person.

Isaac Walton (Eye-sack-wall-ton). IVnabliiKton'a Death. George Washington died of a disease that was then called quinsy, but which Is now kuown as acuto laryngitis. His physicians treated him according to their best light and knowledge, but such treatment now would bo little short of criminal. An eminent author ity says that if medical men had known as much then as they do nor), the dis tinguished pationt would probably have been cured In n week. As It was, ho slowly strangled to death by tho closing of bis throat. At tho present time phy sicians treat n case of this kind by tracheotomy; that Is, by making an opening Into tho windpipe, through which tho patient may breathe. They ulso diagnose a case by using tbo laryn goscope, which enables thorn to look Into the throat and seo exactly what tho trouble Is. Crenklttir Hboea, Do your shoes creak?

PAY PENALTIE8 OF GENIUS, j Captain of 'the World X early All Sufferer froai Nervosa Dleeae. Of supreme captains of the world there are but six or seven and scarce one amors them exhibits genius In its. healthiest colors. In ambush for neafV ly all of them some form of nerve dis order lurks. Grotesque as tbe state ment seems, epilepsy, manifest In great er or less degree, revolves upon their destinies. Charlemagne, the great and wise captain of the Franks, who stands for feudal civilization, who "snatched from darkness all tbe lands he con quered" and who reared an empire that no hand but his. was able to control.

Crcsar, tbe foremost man of tbe ancient world, bad strange convulsions In bis later years and It may be that the dag ger of Brutus saved him from declining Into madness. Marlborough, who was married to a violent woman and whoso only son died In boyhood, was epileptic during his ten last years of life. The adventurous and daring Cllve, world famous and the conqueror of, In dia, at 40 was decidedly a neuropath. In his memorable duel with a brother officer he missed his aim, flung away his weapon and cried: "Shoot and be damned ! I said you cheated and I say so still." Cllve was passionate, morbid. goutj' and an opium eater. At 49, rich and of unstinted reputation, be commit ted suicide. Wellington was distinctly epileptic, nis fainting fits after Water loo were frequent and It was an attack of epilepsy that carried him off. Tho Romanoffs have been neuropathic for nearly three centuries and one of the epileptic fits of Peter the Great Is "said to have lasted throe days." Charles V., whose mother was Insane, had fits In his youth and was gouty, bald and scrofulous. Frederick the Great (from the face of whose father, when he took a walk, says Macaulay. "every human being fled"), reared In a perfect hell of a palace, had a certain general unsoundness of mind to which mercy was altogether foreign.
