CrBRENTEVEXTs!
The past week has seen the Japanese
army chasing the Russian army from
the hills on the west side of the Yalu,
where *he battles were fought, through
a comparatively level country to the
range of hills between them and the
railroad. Everywhere the Jape seemed
to out number, out maneuvre and out
fight the Russians and one wonders
what has become of that monstrous
Russian army, that looked so big on
paper. The landing of a Jap army at
Taknshan, on their right flank, may ac
count for their abandonment of the
fortified town of Feng-Want? Cheng
without a fight.
Besides this the Japs have landed an
army on the narrow neck of the penin
sula on which Port Arthur is located,
and have taken possession of it —includ-
ing the railroad—thus completely iso
lating Port Arthur from the outside
World. The Russians say the Port has
a garrison of ten thousand men and
that it is provisioned for a year, but
from the number of things they don't
know at St. Petersburg about things in
Manchuria, nobody will be surprised if
the Port capitulates next week.
As a consequence of the victories of
the Japs, over their old enemies, the
Rnssians, the Chinese are becoming
belligerent, the war spirit is growing
in them, and the "war party" at Court
is anxious to resent some late breaches
of neutrality by the Russians. The
wonderful work of their brown-skinned
cousins, the Japs, may cause the
Chinese to get-a-move-on and start some
more "yellow-peril" talk; but the
natures of the two peoples are very
different. The Tartars of northern
China are fighters but the vast majority
of the Cinese are not. Their nature is
similar to that of a sheep, who fights
only when be is cornered
This is the month of May-strike
month —and there has been the usual
outbreaks, in spots, over the country,
but everything has either been settled
or pot in a fair way for settlement,
excepting in Colorado, where martial
law continues in a county or two and
the situation is very perplexing. The
Dun agency reported two-hundred and
seven commercial failures for last week,
and the dullness in trade was blamed on
the weather, for April the railroads
reported a decrease of six per cent in
gross earnings.
Last week witnessed some large
financial transactions—the payment by
the United States of $40,000,000 for the
Panama Canal, the sale of $37,000,000 of
bonds by New York city and the
American subscriptions of $2-5,000,000 to
the Japanese loan were some ot the
items which were talked about in
financial circles. Such large transact
ions are rendered possible at this time
because of the large amount of money
that is deposited in banks and trust
companies, many capitalists being con
tent to let their fnnds remain in the
custody of the 'institutions. That so
a i is idle indicates an un
healthy business condition, which in
part may be attributed to the extraordi
nary condition that comes with each
Presidential year.
Before the Senators and Representa
s scattered from Washington, last
week, there were conferences at which
the preliminaries of the coming National
Convention, and the Republican plat
form were discussed.
Probably the drift of the tariff resolu
tion will be found In a recent utterance
of Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island,
who just before leaving Washington,
said—
"The Republican Party is wedded to
no set of tariff schedules, and will cheer
fully readjust the present duties when
ever the conditions warrant and the
welfare of the country requires it."
This is the view of the President, and
it meets with a ready response among
Republican leaders generally except in
lowa and some of the Western States,
where there is an idea that a more
positive declaration should be made-a
promise of action at the next session.
If it comes to a trust issue before the
people the logic of the situation will be
with the Republicans, for their position
is hostility, not to enterprise in general,
but to monopolistic trusts or those that
conspire in restraint of trade, and their
plan to reach such organizations is
through the law.
There is no longer a demand for con
stitutional amendments and supplemen
tary laws. The ground has been cut
completely from under the Democratic
feet in that direction. It has been dis
covered by decisions of tho Supreme
Court that any conspiring corporation
can be reached. The Northern Securi
ties case has settled that question.
So what the Republican Party will
offer to do in the coming campaign will
be to get at the trusts separately through
the enforcement of the law without dis
turbing business, while the Democrats
will find their remedy in assailing the
protective tariff.
The position of the Republican Party
is one of safety to the business Interests,
while the attitude of their political oje
ponents is one of insecurity and danger.
THK notion that Japanese civilization
was imitative and lacking in creative
power is fast being dissipated by the
course of events. A feature of the sit
uation which has greatly impressed
military experts all over tho world is
the way in which Japan has improved
upon the technical apparatus of war
fare. Torpedo boats have never been
used so effectually as they are now by
the Japanese. They have an explosiyo
of their own, different from that used
by western artillerists, but the compo
sition is a secret. It is known as
Shimoee powder, being the invention of
Professor Shimose, a Japanese scientist.
It is claimed that it is much more
powerful than either gun cotton or
dynamite, so that a shell is shattered
into thousands of pieces, while the com
pounds used in Europe break the shell
into only a small number of fragments.
At the same time it is safe to handle.
It will not explode under mere impact
and when flame is applied burns slowly
and so languidly that a bucket of water
will extinguish it at once.
COLLECTOR STKATTON, of San Fran
cisco, estimates that Russia and Japan
havff already paid this country SIO,OOO,
000 for war material. At this rate, per- j
sonal interest leads ns to hope that the
war may continue until all of Rhssia
luui been captured.
WAR XOTUS.
The Japs followed up their victories
on the Yaln, fiercely, chasing the Rus
sians and engaging them continually.
The Russians were expected to make
a stand at Feng-Wang-Cheng, a fortifi
ed town on the main road some thirty
miles northwest of the Yalu. but they
rushed right through it, with the Jars
pursuing them. Where their next
stand will be is not known. The main
road passes over a range of mountaics
before reaching the railroad town cf
Liao Yang Chang.
Detailed accounts of the battles on the
Yalu show them to have been desperate
affairs and the losses on both sides
mount up into the thousands.
On Friday of last week a large
number of Japanese transports, guarded
by war ships, were landing an army in
the West coast of the Liao Tung penin
sula to the north of Port Arthur, and
another fleet landed an army on the
East Coast. They landed almost with
out opposition and took posse=sion of
the railroad. Admiral Alexis' staff and
Grand Duke Boris' left Port Arthurau<L
escaped before the railroad was closed,
and a large number of sick and wound
ed were also sent north.'
The Japs took possession of the rail
road and telegraph line, thus effectual
ly closing all communication with Port
Arthur, sometimes called the Russian
Gibralter. The garrison there is saiato
number ten thousand, provisioned for
one year. Port Arthur is now effectual
ly closed both by land and sea.
The Jap fleet made another and be
lieved to be a successful, attempt to
close the channel of Port Arthur, last
Thnrsday; and that left their largest
fleet free to protect the landings of their
armies along the coast.
Yesterday the Japs had their base at
Feng Wang Cheng, the fortified town
that the Russians abandoned and weie
reported advancing northward in three
divisions. Both Russians and Japs
were hurrying forward reinforcements.
Yesterday it was reported that the
Rnssians had given up all hopes of re
taining Port Arthur, and had blown up
their war ships.
SOME Alaskan natives at the St.
Louis Exposition found that the totem
poles from their countiy had been
placed upside down. If they keep them
selves right side up in St. Louis they
can overlook this desecration of the
poles.
The Human Hog.
The human hog who ate forty bananas
in forty minutes has challenged his peer
who ate thirty egga in thirty minutes
to a contest of deglutition, speed and
weight to govern. There may be those
who are interested in such contests of
stomachs, but the ordinary citizen looks
opon them with contempt. It is the
crown of civilization that aa it develops
there is an increasing proportion of
those who eat that they may live. The
art of dining is to be distinguish'd
from the love of food for ita own sake.
Socially there are few events which
in so many ways contribute to the
genera) enjoyment as giving nice
dinners, but in these the mere food is,
under proper circumstances, the least
feature of the entertainment.
One cannot think without disgust of
a man who would eat forty bananas in
as many minutes, because it eeems to
have no relation whatever to humanity.
No such feat is necessary to preserve
life, and as a mere exhibition of animal
capacity it is so far below that of a hotr
or the elephant that it is disgusting. It
would hardly be necessary to discus*
such a matter as this if not for tho fact
that there have been a number of most
excellent works by the very higher
physicians in authority issued recently
in which the matter of nutrition has
been very carefully discussed. It is not
possible to lay down hard and fast rules
for all human beings, for wo are all
separate and distinct entities and there
are many things which appeal to some
and not to others.
The truth is becoming plain that
most of us absorb a larger bulk of food
than is absolutely necessary to sustain
life under condition of hard labor. We
could all manage to get along with
much less food if we knew just exactly
what to eat and in what proportions
The latest writers on the subject have
called attention to the fact that bulk
really does have a very considerable part
I to play in digestion, and that any plan
whereby -men should live 011 tablets
containing compressed foods is certain
failure. The real problem is not for
those on farms, where there is always
an abundance of food even if •►con
tains little nutriment, but for thote in
the cities who ninst purchase food and
count every penny. It is unfortunate
that the poorer portion of any commun
ity must buy those things which are
cheap by bnlk, but often most expen
sive because of the little nutrition con
tained. Fortunately, iu these days sci
ence is producing certain fowl elements
of undoubted quality and value which
are becoming popnlar. We none of us
aspire to be human hogs, and we all
hope that the coming benefactors of
mankind will be thosewho will lead us
along the surest patlWbf dietetic integ
rity.—lnquirer,

Dat.
This is Bird Day in the pablic schools
of the state. The idea of having the
school teachers first learn something
abont birds, and then tell their scholars
of it, originated with Prof. Bab cock of
Oil City, and it is a good idea.
A Writer in the Sunday Gazette,
blames the boy with a gun. the woman
with a hat and the statesman with a
bonnty, for destroying many useful birds
and also says that the disappearance
of owls has brought ns a plagne of field
mice.
The United States Department of At'-
•ncnltare and the researches of individ
ual ornithologists are fast demonstrat
ing to legislators and farmers svhat mis
takes tbey have made in this bounty
business, and relief along this line is im
minent
The matter, in its complete aspect,
shows the importance of little
links in the chain of life. The
woman who argnes with a fruiter
er over the outrageous price de
[ riianded for some table dainty, and who
is told that the crop was short, does not
! realize that it was eaten tip by insects
because she and other women are wear
ing on their hats the birds that would
have eaten np the insects. The fact is
that birds are the most expensive orna
ments ever put on millinery. They
cost the farmers of onr land millions of
dollars, and the woman who goes to
market must pay back these millions to
the farmer. We need no infinitesimal
calculus here to trace the relation be
tween cause and effect. It is not a fan
tastic and far-fetched illustration like
Darwin's old maids and red clover.
The humming bird eats its own weigh*
in insects daily, the robin eats 11 times
its own weight; there is not one of the
birds that does not do a heroic day's
labor, to say nothing of the estLetic
pleasure they afford us by the beauty of
their song and plumage. Slaughter the
birds, and the plagued of Egypt will be
as nothing compared to the armies of
caterpillars, clouds of locusts, and myr
iads of noxious insects of all sorts that
will devour our land.
Perhaps Bird Day will spread abroad
some of that wisdom which lias made
the owner of a vineyard near Pittsburgh
a wealthy man, though ours is not a fa
mous wineproducing region, fie was
a«ked the secret of his success —why his
vines hung with luscious clusters, wlicn
neighboring vineyards were bare and
empty. Iu a moment of confidence he
gave away his secret: ' There's none o'
my men dast even say 'shoo' to a bird."
A Short in Cookery.
When one is awakened at night by
what is called the "night-mare," ie,
awaking just in time to escape being
impaled on the horns of a inad-bnll.
falling off a wall, or other calamity, he
sometimes remembers of eating some
thing that did not "taste right." and if
subject to what is called dyspepsia, he
may investigate the matter and seek a
cause. *
As a rule we believe that everything
that nature has made for food is perfect
in itself, though it may require cooking,
but some of the mixtures the cooks
make are liable to be erroneous.
For instance a mixture of sonr milk
and soda, used in the making of a batter
for cakes or corn bread, and baked im
mediately, is liable to make trouble.
Sour milk is, in part, an acid; while
soda is an alkali, the two are antag
onistic and create a fermentation, which,
if allowed to complete itself may do no
harm. But, that fermentation is arrest
ed by the baking; then, after eating,
the acids of tbe stomach start it np
again, and the victim is in distress,
without knowing the reason - though
lie may know that a drink of liquor
will arrest that fermentation, and thus
stop that pain, and he may go to the
bar
It would not be a bad idea for our
high schools to drop the courses in
Oreek and Latin, and adopt in their
stead a course in everyday chemistry.
