RUHOR SAYS THAT JAPS HAVE FORTS TOKIO, June 2i>.—3:30 p. m.—lt is unofficially reported that the Cliik- Wan-Shan, Chit-An Shan and So-Cho- Slian forts southeast of and part of tho Port Arthur defences, were captured ou Sunday after an all day fight, be ginning with an artillery duel. So-Cho-Shan, it is added, was first captured and the other forts tell soon afterward. The Russians retreated west, leaving forty dead or wounded. The composition of the Japanese force lias not been ascertained beyond the fact that it is said to have consisted of all branches of the service. The Japanese lost three officers and a hundred men killed or wounded and captured two guns and a quantity ot ammunition. The officials here do not confirm the report. ANOTHER SHIP HAY BE LOST ST. PETERSBURG, June 2i>-6 :lfi p. in.—A report has just reached the Press correspondent that the Russian ironclad Netron Menia rammed the Russian battleship Navarin at ('rou st ad t this afternoon. The circumstances and the extent of the damage have not yet been ascertained. REPORT A BOAT ON THE ROCKS CHE FOO.Juue 21).—2 p. m.— Chin ese arrivals from Port Arthur roport a large vessel, presumably a Russian vessel,on the rocks ten miles southeast of Liao Tie Shan promontory. Three funnels and two masts are above wat er. The Chinese also state that after the Japanese fleet moved away from the entrance to Port Arthur, June 2t. the Russian fleet again emerged, re maining out a short time. Fighting is reported to be continu ous on laud and from the sea. The weather lias been stormy since Mon day and extreme heat is reported from Manchuria. ALL RUSSIA NOW WATCHES THE EAST ST. PETERSBURG, June 29. 1:30 p. in —The whole city is awaiting with breathless interest news from the opposing armies in Southern Mau churia, grappled in the decisive battle of the campaign. But those fully appreciating the al most impassable country through which the Japanese columns are ad vancing and the difficulty of moving large bodies of troops into position, hardly expect the battle to begin in earnest tor several days, although ad mitting that heavy firing between the advance forces may now be in pro Kress. The papers, with the exception of the army organ and the Novoe Vremya are unanimously of the opinion that a pitched battle is now certain. The former is silent on the subject, which may be significant, especially as Gen eral Kuropatkin's movements are shrouded in mystery. RUSH BEING MADE FOR LIFE PRESERVERS PITTSBURG, June 21*.— Captain Isaac B. Williams, United States steam boat iusjiector, is being kept very busy just now inspecting life preservers. From 1,000 to 1,500 are being made and shipped by express to New York every day from this city. The reason is attributed to the Slo cum disaster. It is said the owners of steamboats are hurrying to get new life preservers on board their vessel* so that it an inspection is ordered by the government they will be prepared tor it. The purchasers refuse to wait for the arrival of the goods by freight and the shipments are being made by ex press. Crop Conditions. According to the government weath er bulletin state crop conditions are about as follows: Wheat and rye are heading rapidly and promise a much larger yield than was expected early in the season. Some hay has been cut and a full average crop is in ptospect. Oats are in fine condition and garden truck made rapid growth. The replant ing of corn and tobacco is about completed. Corn is backward and un even but in good color and with sun shine and warm nights should make rapid advancement. Potatoes are do ing well. Peaches will be scarce but other fruits bid fair to be plentiful. CLOUI) BURST WAS CAUSE OF FLOOD PITTS B U UG» .1 ii lie 29.—Over five hundred homes, business houses and school houses, a short distance from Fiffshurg 011 tho Pan Handle railroad, were inundated in from two to ten feet of water in Robinson's Hun Hol low and Charters Valley by the cloud burst there last night. Many build ings and bridges were washed away, horses and ca.ftle were drowned, and at least 0110 life was lost. It was rumored that others had per ished, but the reports have not been verified. There were many narrow escapes. In the Bastian Hotel, McDonald, Charles Hay,the engineer, was caught in a room in the basement. A lmost without warning the water poured up on him. Escape by way of the door was cut off. lie reached safety by crawling through tho transom. The Murchland sisters, who conduct a millinery store at McDonald, nar rowly escaped death *ll the flood. Their store was washed from its base with the three women in it. They were rescued by Charles Cameron, who waded out to the building and.carried out the sisters one by one. Tho house of Arnold Glaser was overturned bv the force of rushing water The five members of the family had sought safety in one of the upper rooms. All succeeded in reaching land by swim ming and wading Miss Blanche Bush, a clerk in a news stand at McDonald, had a narrow es cape. The store was lifted from its place and swept into the stream. Miss Bush was caught in the structure, and as it floated awav she screamed for help. Her cries were heard by George Hemmerliug, an oil operator. He plunged into the water and swam out to tho building and back again.taking Miss Bush with him. Both the electric lifclit plants at Mc- Donald were flooded and the town was in total darkness. The flood did not subside until daylight and many fami lies slept outdoors all last night. Kail road traffic on the Pan Handle rail road through the flooded district is completely tied up, tracks washed away, and many towns above and he low Oakdale and Carnegie are with out means of communication. The only fatality reported so far was the drowning of an unknown Italian, whose body was found floating in Rob inson Run earlv today. The damage will reach £IOO,OOO.

The merchant who knowing ly sells his customers adulterated goods, for pure, should be punished. Ignorance of the law, of course, ex cuses uo one, but many a merchant was obliged to pay a fine who had no intention of deceiving his customers. The manufacturers are the guilty parties, but they escape because they comply with the law by putting some little mark on the package. A custom er goes into a wholesale house and is offered something cheap. He buys it and sells it cheap. It has a little mark "compound" on the package. This leaves the jobber out, but when the retailer sells it he must suffer the con sequences. Very frequently lie knows nothing of the contents and is entire ly innocent of wrong doing. When a customer wants to buy jelly for three or four cents a pound lie surely knows that the stuff is not pure. It is the demand for cheap food that has forced such merchandise on the market. The merchant is in business to sell what the people demand. The only ques tion is to give them what they ask for; don't deceive them. The pure food law is all right and the people want to know what they eat, but there should bo some protec tion for the merchant against the manufacturer.

Graves, of Wilkesbarre, special officer for tho Pennsylvania railroad company, Tuesday afternoon arrested a tnan who gave liis name as I. G. Marion, and nlace of residence Lan caster, Pa., for beating liis way over the Suuburv division on a freight trai ii. Oflicer Graves was 011 his way to Sunliury and was 011 the same train with Marion, both riding 111 the ca boose, Marion gaining permission from tho conductor by representing himself to be a telegraph lineman in the employ of the company. Ho st»t cd that he had been sent out in a hurry and had forgotten to yet creden tials hut to make his story good he carried a pair of pole climbers and a pair of wire cutters. At first Graves was inclined to believe his story, hut after being in converastion with him for a while lie arrived at a different conclusion and made ap his mind that lm was an impostor. When the train arrived at Sanhury Graves arrested the mail and took him before Justice of the Peace Carpenter, where ho was charged with illegal car riding. At first Marion stuck to tiie lineman story, hut when questioned closely, broke down and admitted his guilt. Justice Carpenter sent him to jail tor twenty days. The railroad officers are waging a relentless war on the army of illegal car riders and scarcely a day passes but what a number of them land in jail.— Sunbury Daily. Killing and Maiming. The executive ill every town in Penn sylvania has received from tho state board of health a communication call ing attention to tho need of a better enforcement of the law relative to the sale of toy pistols and high explosives. It makes the assertion that tho total number of casualties in the United States last Fourth of July were 4,349, ot which 401! died from lockjaw caus ed by injuries; 10 blinded; 75 lost one eye; 54 lost an arm or a leg; 174 lost fingers. The causes of accidents were ; Blank cartridges, 1,1509; firecrackers, 1,152; toy cannons, .'579; powder and fireworks, 731. The toy pistol is a most fruitful source of injury and death,and against this dangerous "toy" there should be a relentless warfare. Each recurring Fourth of July brings with it its noise and blaze and its epidemic of tetanus, or lockjaw. 111 the Fourth of July tetanus the disease usually becomes manifest on the fourth or fifth day after the injury, and the patient dies in from 24 to 72 hours. Last year out of 4015 cases ot lockjaw only nine re- covered. It was declared in an address before tlio Chicago school tecahers,assembled in furtherance of the movement for a saner observance of the Fourth in that city, that 1,100 persons were killed and •'•,47:5 were injured in ten cities daring the last ten Independence days. The lire loss was $.">,4511,000. The burn inn of Portland, Maine,on July I lSlili, inflicting a property loss of from $lO,- 000,000 to *1"),000,000 —tiie most serious conflagration in the count ry up to that time since the great lire in New York in 1835—is a reminder of the danger ous handling of all forms of fireworks Such is the tribute paid to patriotism by the irrational methods of celebrat ing the country's natal day. There is no reason to fear that pa triotism will languish if the boys are denied the privilege of destroying themselves, or being maimed for lite. The rational observance of the Fourth does not suppress patriotic ardor There is no sense in the barbaric man ner in which the Fourth is observed with explosives, endangering lite and property. May Dam the River. Residents of Berwick and vicinity have practically decided to tear down the piers of the old bridge and use the stone to dam the river, thus making navigation possible. For the past few days it is almost impossible to get across the stream, even in a row boat, as the stream is very shallow in places and it is no uu usual sight to soe the ferries and oth er boats stranded for hours. The coun ty commissioners of Luzerne and Col umbia counties held a meeting yester day and it was shown that navigation will he an impossibility between Nes copeck and Berwick during the sum mer, and in consequence it was par tially decided to tear down the piers, build a dam, thus raising the water. The Third Son Dead. A streak of ill-luck seems to bo in the wake of Nicholas Harris' family. Mr. Harris resides on East Race street, Shamokin, and is the father of a large family of boys, three of whom have died nndet sad circumstances within the past three years. Two, Mathias and Lawrence, were soldiers in Uncle Sam's army. They were on the firing lines in the Philip pines and escaped deaths in the battle fields only to die later from fever in hospitals. Monday, Philip, aged 21 years, was drowned in a river at Uhiichsville, 0., while bathing. A telegram was re cieved by Jeweler Joseph Harris, a brother,apprising him of the sad fact. The telegram was received from another biofher.Nicholas who resides at ('olumbus, <). Lovett Sawiuski. Miss i'Jizahcth Sawinski and Will i tin Lovett of this city were married yesterday morning.

Hnhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. fThe kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized.

Judge McDonnell, of Westmoreland county, has rendered a decision refus ing a new trial in the suit brought by the Dairy and Food Department against a dealer who sold brandy which was preserved with boric acid. The dealer was convicted and senten ced to pay a line for the violation of the pure food act of lH'.ta, and applied for a new trial,alleging that the brandy was sold for medical purposes and not for food or drink. In the opinion re fusing the new trial the court refers to the act of 181)7, which prohibits the adulteration of drugs and asserts that a person must be protected frdm the purchase of adulterated drugs as well as food. This was the first instance of boric acid being used as a preservative i which has been brought to the atten tion of the department.
