Regard Japan's Terms as
Exceedingly Hard.
Cession of Sakhalin and Cost of
the War Are features.
Portsmouth, N. II., Aug. 10
Reiinbuisctnent lor the expenses
sustained in the prosecution of the
war and the cession of the Island
of Sakhalin constitute the main
features of the peace conditions
handed by Baron Koniura to M.
Witte at the conclusion of the
morning session of the plcnipotentiaiies
in the general stores building
ot the l'ortsmoutn navy vaid
Tile word "indemnity is carefully
avoided, the term employed being
reimbursement' for the cost of
the war. No sum is fixed, the
amount being distinctly adjourned
for mutual adjustment between the
the two countries after the Japanese
expenditure has been ascertained.
These are the two all important
conditions and those which
the Russian plenipotentiaries find
absolutely inacceptable. Inaccep
tabic as they arc, however, it can
be stated that these two principal
conditions did not come as a snr
prise to the Russian plenipotentiaries.
The friendly fashion in
which liaron Komnra explained
the conditions before handing them
to M. Witte, and the avoidance
of the use the word " indemnity"
in the presentation of Japan's bill
for thejeost of the war without
fixing a sum leaves the way open
for negotiations and constitutes
the main hope that a final agreement
is possible. Certainly the
danger of a sudden rupture no
matter what the ultimate result
may l.-e, is precluded by today's
developments. The other terms
are substantially what the world
expected and with one or perhaps
two exceptions c o u 1 <1 probably
be entertained as bases of
negotiations flicy included the
following
JAPAN'S PKMANDS.
rile cession of the Russian leases
to the Liao Tung peninsula
comprising Port Arthur and Dalny.
The evacuation of the entire
province of Manchuria, the retrocession
to China of any privileges
Russia may have in the province
and the recognition by Russia of
the principle of the " open door."
The cession to Japan or the Chinese
Eastern railroad below Harbin,
the main line through northenr
Manchuria to Vladivostok to
remain Russian property. The
recognition of the Japanese protectorate
over Korea. The grant
of fishing rights to* Japan In the
waters of the Siberian littoral
northward from Vladivostok to the
Bchring sea. The relingquishment
to Japan of the Russian warships
interned in neutral ports.
Finally, a limitation upon the na
val strength of Russia in far eastern
waters
As a whole the terms arc regarded
as exceedingly hard by the
Russians. In addition to the two
principal condition* which cannot
be accepted under Mr. Witte's instructions
those relating to the
limiting of Ru*si i's naval power
in the f.ir cast and the granting of
fishing rights upon the Russian
littoral are considered particulary
offensive to the amour proprc of
their country and of such a humiliating
character as to be inadmisi
blc.

Outraged Citizens of White Sulphur
Take Fiend's Life for
Outrago lTpon Society.
Sulphur Springs, Tex., Aug.
11. ? Tom Williams, a mulatto
negro, made an attempt to assault
a young white girl in a pasture
near this town about (> o'clock
this morning. Three hours later
lie was a blazing mass in tlio public
square at Sulphur Springs,
riii* whole proceeding wus as
orderly as such proer.t dings over
are. There was no excitement
and the lynching was participa
ted in l?y sovmnl hundred people
in less than four hours after the
assault llio tragedy Imd ended
and tlie town had returned to its
accnstimod vocations und the iucident
was ovoi.
On a farm about two miles
sou'hwest of town, Mat y Clulds
lives with her mother and sisters.
About t> o'clock this morning
she started, as was her wont, to
the pasture to drive up the cows
to the milking lot. She hud
found the cows an.l was returning
with them when Williams accosted
her. He took hold of the girl
and the latter realizing her predicament,
told the nojrro he had
release her as her sisters were
nearby. Tliisoi idontly t lightenjd
the negro and the girl seeing that
lie hesitated s?d up a scream and
Williams loosened his hold on her
and ran oil as fast as he could.
The girl made her way homo and
told what had happened. Officers
and a posse started after the negro
and he was soon caught about
a mile and a half east of town. |
He was taken at once to the scene
of the attempted assault and was
fully identified by his intended
victim, who told in detail of her
experience with him. The mob
took the negro from the officers.
As soon as the mob arrived at the
public square the tools, of itstiade
were provided.
From his head to his heels the
negro was saturated with oil. A
match was applied to the feet and
a blaze shot high into the air.
The mob stood by and Watched
the flames devour the negro. The
fire was kept going for awhile
but it soon burned itself out and
the body was cut down. Then
oil was poured on it and the
blaze started afiosh, tho body
was almost entirely incinerated.
Then tho mob dispersed and in
half an hour no sign remained oj
the gruesome tragedy that had
been enacted nor of the victim
whose doath had been encompassed
so quickly after his crime.
The relatives of the negro were
permitted to take what was left of
the body. They scraped up the
remains and took them away.
Later they will be buried by
them.

Headache
When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous system,
centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
j in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stomach
causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
brain, resulting in loss of
memory, inflammation, epilepsy,
fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition by taking
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by soothing,
strengthening and relieving
the tension upon the nerves
?not by paralyzing them, as
do most headache remedies.
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills do
not contain opium, morphine,
chloral,cocaine or similar drugs.
"Sick headache Is hereditary in mv
family. My father suffered a ktc.it
deal, and for many years I have h <1
spells that were so severo that t w.u
unable to attend to my business affairs
for a day or so at a time. During a
very severe nttaek of headache. I took
J">r. Miles' Anti-Fain PHls and they
relieved me almost Immediately. Since
then I tnke them when I feel the spell
coming on and It stops It at once.''
