" This lesson teaches us the need of im- plicit faith in God, and that it we are willing to obey the commands of God he will not fail to protect us in the hour of danger, and that all. our needs will be supplied. mTrust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed." 2 God's care for his servants was won- derfully illustrated in the case of Eli- jah, as recorded in our lesson. God's promises and their fulfilment always more on "sehedule time." The best man- aged railroad systems often fail in mak- ing the connections as given in their time tables. and passengers are put to many inconveniences by the failure. Not so with God's promises. For a year that brook flowed on; every morning and ev- ening the ravens obeyed the command, of their Maker. and Elijah never failed‘ to have his meals on time. Elijsh’a boldness as he appears before the wicked Ahab demands our attention. Armed with a message trom God, he de- elares, "As the Lord God of Israel liv. eth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but ac. cording to my word." Having delivered his message he hears the command, '"Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith....... thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there." God has often hidden his ser- vents: Jeremiah was thus hidden; Noah l was shut in; Joash, the child king, was hidden seven years, and even Christ at times passed through the throng unre- cognized by his enemies. PILOT WAS AT FAULT. Elijah a man of prayer. James says he "prayed earnestly." Elijah saw that it needed some extraordinary means to bring Israel back to God. "Extmordin. ary manifestations of wickedness de. mand extraordinary manifestations of the power of God." "This ,Tn1er-working prophet," any! one, “is introduced to our notice like an- other Melchizedek, without any mention of his father or mother, or of the be- ginning of his days - as if he had drop- ped down from heaven." The Scrip- tures state that he was "a man of like passions as we." The time of Elijah’s l appearance was during the darkest days, of Israel’s declension from God. Ahab had been reigning over twelve years, and it is enough to brand him as a wicked man when we are told "that the was none like unto Ahab which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stir- red up." The altars of God were thrown down and the prophets were slain. The judgment pronounced by Moses in Dent. xi. 16, 17 was about to come upon ltr rael for their sin.

Poliee reserves were hurried to the scene from all parts of the city. and tho various, departments were instantly notified. The Minister's servant, who also was on the carriage box. was badly wounded, and two officers, who were driving by in a cab. were injured by flying splinters. The assassin himself was wounded in one eye. He took to flight, but, according: to the latest reports, was overtaken and is now under arrest. Passengers by the Pcterhof train began to arrive upon the scene. Among them were the Duke and Duchess of Oldenburg, who stopped their motor car within a couple of paces of M. Von I’lehve's re- mains, and were told by a policeman the terrible tidingsc They were much " feeted. The explosion was terrific. and practi- cally annihilated the woodwork of the carriage. The horses tore off, dragging the axle and the front wheels. The ani. mals. though infuriated by the wounds they had sustained. had not galloped far before they fell, with pools of blood un- der them. M. Tort Plohve was always apprehen- sire of attempts upon his life, and used to drive as rapidly as possible. His coachman, however, was compelled to go slow at this point. The assassin. in laying his plans, ovi- dently foresaw this circumstance. and while the Miniueru Coachman slowed down, threw the bomb. The. infernal machine was thrown with deadly accuracy. and the assassin was favored by the fact that traffic here is always ot the heaviest. owing to the crossing of lines of surface cars and the continuous stream of heavy trucks. I The tragedy took place On the Zall. konski Prospect. a broad thoroughfare _ leading up to the Warsaw Dcpot. whence ‘the road turns sharply to the left to. wards the Baltic Railroad station.. The oxaet spot is just before the bridge spanning the Circular Canal on the other side of which both stations are situated. The bomb thrower must have known that Ministcr Von Plelwe would pass the spot this morning, for the Minister makes his report to the Emperor every Thursday. , The Associated Press eorrcsondent was at the scene of the tragedy within five minutes after it occurred. M. Von- Plehve's body was lying inthe middle of the road. It had been partially covered with a police officer's overcoat, with the left arm, the bone of which was broken ‘off, projecting. A policeman came up 'and raised the overcoat in order to re-, arrange it, revealing for an instant the strong features of the dead Minister, whose head was battered almost beyond recognition. The roadway was strewn for a hundred yards with the wreckage of the carriage, and pieces of the red lin. ing of the Minister's overcoat. A few yards from M. Tonl'lehve's body lay a shapelcss heap of the coaehman's re-' mains. , i . i The coachmnn was killed, and the wounded and maddened horse dashed wildly away with the front wheels of the carriage, the only portion of the vehicle remaining intact. Immediately there ensued a scene of the wildest con- fusion. Police and gendarmes hurried up from every direction and vast crowds gathered about the spot where the "t of the Minister lay. lassassinatod this morning while driving to the Baltic Station to visit the Em- peror at the Peterhof Palace. A bomb was thrown under the Minister's car- riage, completely shattering it. M. Von- Plehve was terribly mangled. The crime was committed at 10 o'eloek.

Although they contained only four lines referring to the tragedy, the newsbovs were fairly mobbed by the crowds in the streets, so eager were all for details of the crime. Intense excitement reigned everywhere. Only the assassination of the Emperor could have created more of a sensation, as next to His Majesty him- self, Von Plehve was regarded as the most powerful person in the Russian Government. Even in the midst of the consterna- tion produced by the tragedy everybody is talking of Ton Plehvo's probable suc- 00580". A heap of debris from the. carriage, a portion of the coaehman's uniform, mute and pitiahle relies from the tra. gedy, were still lying in Heabalnsky street. where, the crime was committed. when the correspondent of the Associ- ated Press again returned to the spot again this afternoon. For " block either side of the street. was guarded by police and no one was allowed to approach. According io a later version the bomb was thrown from a window of the War. saw Hotel. Von Plehve's head was torn off, the lower portion was completely shattered. but the upper part was tnt. touched. There were only two conspira- tors, according to this version, one of whom threw the bomb from the win. dow and then bolted. When captured another bomb is said to have boon found in his pocket. _ [ Some of tho-drunk): drivers at the cab stand in front of the station were in. jured. The force of tho oxplmion was so tre- mendous that all windows of a hutel Fae, ing the street were blown in, and even some of the large panes were. shattered a hundred steps away. The wounded man, who is said to he a Jew, was taken to the Alexander Hose, pital so dazed as to be unable to speak. His condition is accounted for by the fact that he took poison immediately after throwing the bomb. The deceased Minister’s carriage was being followed by secret sorvive men on lsic.vvhas, but by a miracle not one of them “an im jured. It is reported that six men are im. plicated, and that five of them fled into a little hotel adjoining the some of the assassination, the only one who was wounded have been captured. The hotel was surrounded by the poliee and all its inmates were arrested. I As the carriage passed all heads were uncovered. The first hurried surmise of the. police seems to connect the crime with the plot which was frustrated by the explosiion at the Hotel du Nord on April 13, in which Kazanoff, one of the conspirators, was killed by the acciden- tal explosion of an infernal machine which at the time, it was said, was in- tended for M. Von Plehve. On that oe. casion a companion of the conspirator who Wag killed escaped. Owing to the terrific force of the explosion on that occasion, which completely wrecked two rooms. blowing the body of Kazanoff al. ;most to atom, severing his head and arms from the trunk. the heads of the police believe it is possible that the ex- plosive was identical with that need in to-day's tragedy, which was also caused by a bomb or infernal machine of sim- ilar power with that of the former plot. and that the perpetrator was the man who escaped at the time. As a further indication of the identity of the tragedy with the Hotel du Nord affair, there was a case of explosive bullets in the bomb. to. The Emperor broke down when he was informed of the Minister's murder.

On being queetioned. the Chinaman said that, seeing a crowd gathering that morning at the place of execution, he had stopped to see what was going on. ',Four condemned men were attached to Makes and the Chinaman at once recog- nized one of the man a European. His body was so enclosed in a sack that it was impossible to see his clothes. but he wore long black hair, and had evidently been a long time in prison. The man cried out frequently in de. spairing accents. and raised his head as far as the wooden "cangue" in which it was enclosed would allow him. He called to the Mandarin to approach, and shout- ed out several times in Chinese, " lam no bandit. I am a European." Then he began to recite in a foreign tongue, aq though praying. but before he had finished the executioner struck off his head. He sent for the Chinaman, who con- ducted him to the scene of the execu- tion, and there the captain was horri- fied to discover that one of the headless corpses was that of a European, as the Chinaman had stated. A search was made for the head. but it had been ovi- dently taken away by the Chinese execu- tioner to avoid trouble. Captain Kinleff states that in conso- quenee of it having been reported by a Chinaman in the market place that a European had been that morning put to death by the Chinese authorities, toge- ther with a unmber of Chiness bandits, he was deputed to make inquiries into the matter. A Moscow paper prints extracts from a letter written by Captain Kinleft, of the Russian army, in garrison at Muk- den, giving a circumstantial account of the execution of a. European at the hands of the Chinese. He Was Put to Death by the Chinese at Mukden. The London Daily Express of July 16 had the following from its correspondent at Paris: On June l.'? of thia year it was an- nouneed from St. Potershurg that the Couneil.of the Empire had approved M. Von Piohvo’s deeree for tho repeal of the law under which Jews are forbidden to reside within thirty-two miles of the frontier. This measure has, been ap- proved by the Emperor. The last great public work of Von Plehve. so far as known, was the draft- ing of the peasant code. early this year, This is a scheme for peasant reform hr- dered by the Emperor in his recent mani- festo. It should be added that the allegations: against M. Ton Plehve have nm-or been proved. It is only just to assume that the charges were unfounded. What part. if tiny. M. Von Plehvo ne- tually played in the Kishineff massacres will probably never be known; but hie enemies have claimed that he had full knowledge of the events leading thereto, through his political friend and agent. Krounhevan. known as the most extreme anti-Semite in Russia. and proprietor of the Bessarabetz. a newspaper of Kishin- eff. niashoff. He hid formerly been direc- tor of the Department of Police. Plehve conducted the prosecution of the. assas- sins of Alexander ll. in IMI, and from that time on his power increased until it became only second in importance to that of the Emperor. Several plots to assassinate him have. according to re- ports, been discovered during the past two years. The educated youths of Rus- sia are said to have been bitterly op- posed to M. Plehre, owing, it is said. to his turning on his own people, and to the drastic changes which he inaugurat- ed or advocated. He is said to have re- garded the common people as either dangerous criminals to be repressed. or. if innocent, to be ignored. Von Plehve was largely of Polish blood, yet it is ‘alleged no man in Russia has so signal- ized himself for severity against the Finns as M. Von Plehve. He was re- garded in many ways as being the power behind the throne, and was dreaded on account of his control of the third (sec- ret) section of police. and also owing to the fact that he controlled the press of Russia through the censors. who. it has been understood. did M.
