DETAILS OF THE PLOT Ami ..r Hi.- Iliiich.-i-.v Wlilcli IIom Itui l-Vw KiiiiiiIh In tHMory. Dispatches from Help rude says tliat since LI 10 late Kinir Alexander's last si.spension of the Servian constit niton the army had been animated by hostile r? elinps toward lioth the Kinp and t^peen. The revolution was planned weeks apo. Secret coipmittees were organj'fd in the county and worked in cooperation with t lie army. The ^adi ys of ti e revolution are said to have been the new ministers of justice and finance, respectively, M. Schiokovics and M. Velikovics, and the Sixth repiment of infantry, parrisoiihik' Itelprade, was designated to carry out the plot. It was originally intended that the plot should lie executed later, but fears that the new Servian parliament would settle the question of the succession to the L'ironc hastened m ilters. Col. Nanmovies, tlie adjutant, of tlie kinp. was entrusted with the execution of the plans. While on duly at 11 o'clock I Wednesday nielli. Naumovirs hurst 01 ilic .too. lead111.1 ih<- .s,c? piop | apart ments of the royal couple with a hnmh and then entered, accompanied by Mischich and a numlier of junior oitlcers. Previously the palace euard | had tiecn overpowered and its commander. Capt. I'auajovles, was killed. TilK KINO A MAN '111 T1IK LAST. Naumovies presented to the kinp a form of abdication tor his signature. The document contained toe statemeiit that by marrying a "pulilic prostitute, uic King had degraded Servia and that therefore lie must abdicate. The kind's answer was to draw a revolver and kill Naumovics on the spot. Mischich then picked up the document and presented it again, and the king, who perceived his danger, lied with Queen Praga to the palace roof, both being in their night clothes. The olllcers followed, continuously tiring and ultimately shot down the royal couple. Major Luka Lazarcwics, who had been under the king's displeasure for two years, is said to have fired the shot which actually killed the king. At about 2 o'clock Thursday morn in^r Queen Drama's two brothers were shot at their homes, as well as Premier Markovitch and liis brother-inlaw, M. Milkovitch, the minister of the interior. M. Tudorovies, and his daughter, and the war minister, Pen. Pavlovitcii. Wliile these events were proceeding at tile palace the streets of the city were already occupied hv soldiers and an armed force surrounded the royal residence. The horses and guns of the batteries of artillery were all decorated with eveigreens, as f ?r a festival. The soldiers discarded the badge of King Alexander from their helmets. 1 An attempt was made to support the dynasty by the commander of the ' Dunulie division, who tried to march the Kigbth regiment of infantry into the city to help the late, king but he was^ipposed by a Imdy of troops under I Co!, (lagowics. in the tight which ensued doth the otlicers mentioned were killed. A I.AMK KX PI. A NATION. What purports to bean official explanation of the tragedy wjis issued at Iteltrrade during the day. It says: "After dinner on Wednesday evening the kinn and queen, with some of their relatives and several ministers, sat on the balcony of the palace. Suddenly the kinji demanded that (jueen Dra^a leave the country. She refused and was supported by some of the ministers. When the kinp saw this opposition n ? ordered the military to occupy the palace. In the meantime the queen's friends were also active and collected her supporters, it was in a tight between the two factions that tile king and queen were killed." A dispatch received by the Austirian foreign ottice Thursday afternoon announced that the Servian parliament which has been summoned for .lime l"i, will only elect Prince Peter Karageorgevitch king in the I'vent of Austria and Russia not opposing such a step. Austria would not object because ait hough the prince was once the avowed enemy of Austria. lie has since given repeated as durance that in the event of his com iiiv; to the t hrone of Servia he was desirous of living amicably with Austria.

The very symptoms which ' Lliey believe indicate rabies are the surest tests that a dug is not mad." c Dr. James fylcl>oiiougli, of tlie | Watchuug Kennels, who invited the j school children of Nfontclair. N. J., to ( ylsit his dog sanitarium last Saturday ( and observe from a safe place the ac- ( lions of a dog In the second and tinal v stage of rohies, made this statement: | "In all my experience," said the doc- c tor. "and I have been treating dogs r for tifteen years, I have never seen a f mad dog froth at the mouth. On the contrary, the mouth of a dog that is really rabid is dry and parched. Nether (j have 1 ever seen a dog with rabies rush at tout like the dogs we read alstul, r with head lowered and eyes bloodshot, snapping and biting at everything witii which lie comes in contact. "The real mad dog seldom attacks t unless he is interfered with. 1 have , followed a mad dog over a country t road and seen him trot, by within two (j inches of people who were quietly eon- s versing, not knowing that tiie animal ' was mad."' The sudden hot weather having re\ived the fear of mad dogs, an American reporter visited Mr. McDonougii at ids dog sanitarium in Montcla'r. and asked him atiout the prevalence of rallies and the manner in which the danger may lie averted. Dr. McDcn ?ugh smiled as he replied: "1 can speak only for Montclair and 1 am most positive that there is no ^ epidemic of rallies here. 1 don't believe there is rabid dog in this town. 11 1 have one dog here in my sani'arium 1 that 1 am keeping under observation. He is very active and might bite you if you got too close to him: hut, I don't. 1 believe he is mad. "There is a great popular miseon caption cm tin; question of rahid dogs. I lirmly lielfevc that if the public wore 'J properly educated in the observancc of dons the cases of rallies would be fewer than they are at present. And rabies is a rare disease at that. ,l "I think it desirable that the sum 11 of information among the people be [1 increased regarding dons, both for the purpose of insurinn greater safety to ^ the people and for the prevention . f ^ the slaunhtcr of a great numlier of pets who do not merit death. . "Let me tell you the symfoms of rallies. There are two stanes of the disease. In tlie first the don is restless and uneasy, lie can't keep still. He shifts about from one place to another, has a hackinn counh and to- ^ ward tlie end of thelirst stage begins to bite titfully at the seat of inocula- t tion, wherever it may be. "This stano lasts for from twentyfour to thirty-six hours, durinn which time the dog is absolutely harmless. j.( Any one who has tieen educated to ^ observe these symptoms can detect . rabies at once in the dog. I have often thought that nature has made k this pmxision in order that sutlicient ^ warning of the approach of rabies may M lie given before the dog becomes dan- q, germis. vv "Well, it is only after the dog has j,, passed from the lirst to the second |)( stage of t he disease that he becomes [langerous. And even with regard to j] the second, or violent vtage, tltere is |c ifreat. popular misconception. ^ "A general rule to follow with re- ]j jard to all dogs is this: Always turn f, iut for a dog that wont turn out for you: If you follow that rule you will m lie comparatively safe from any rabid ;i| log that comes your way. w "When the doe misses into llie <?< - iid static of rallies lie becomes still more restless.

S. (J., Octolier 10, After a service of one season at White Stone Lithia Springs, as resident physician, I do not hesitate to say that the effect of the water upon those who Irink it for any length of time, has l?een perfectly marvelous. Invariably an increase l>oth in tlesh and appetite was perceptible in one week, proving ii to ' lie a mineral water of undoubted powerful tonic property, lis peculiar adaptibility to diseases originating from disorders of the kidnevs. bladder and liver, I such as dropsy, Bright's disease, diabet.es and urie acid calculi, and all forms of lyspepsia, rheumatism and gout, is to he expected from the splendid analvsis. It has been noted frequently that visitors Im-fore coming here had to follow very meal with some form of corrective, or confine themselves entirely to predigested foods: .moil discarded these entirely, ticing deliglited to litul that Lite water alone nature's own remedy sufficed. (if the many who drank this water this season for ten days consecutively, tot one but experienced decided lwnetit and a percept ible gain weight, varying from two to live pounds. L C. STEPHENS. M.
