PETERSBURG, Aug. 10.-4:17 p. in —The news received at the War Office today indicates the concentra tion of the Japanese armies east of Simonoheng, which is interpreted as showing the intention to press direct on Liao Yang in an attempt to cut off Anshanshan, which is half way be tween Hai Cheng and Liao Yang. The -laiiane.se advance on Mukden does not seem to have developed a ser ious character, and acording to the general staff the way is still open, if General Knropatkin choose to with draw. Rain again seemed to interfere with the movements of the Japanese. A contiuuance of the rains is considered to be greatly to Geueral Kuropatkin's advantage. The latter's official report received this afternoon confirms the dispatch of the Press from Sintsintiu.of August 8, reporting a fight near Tsianschan. The general also reports daily skirm ishing on the southern front. NERVOUS OVER THE OUTCOME ST PETERSBURG, Aug. 10.-Ner vousness over the situation at the front seems to be increasing since the oc cupation by the Japanese of the Wolf Hills, before Port Arthur It is admitted that the besiegers have an elevated position, whence placed guns can command the fortress and while still professing confidence that General Stoessel will be able to hold out with his comparatively small gar rison against the enormous number of the attackers and their evident dis regard of men, indicated by the reck less manner in which they stormed the outer positions,the state of affairs creates more apprehension than the War Office or admiralty care to ac knowledge. Similar misgivings exist regarding General Kuropatkiii's position,the ad vantages of the new Japanese base at Now Chwang in greatly simplifying the problem of provisioning their army being fully realized. But it is the re port that the Japanese are working uj; westward of the main Russian army which occasions the greatest uneasi ness The rumor that they are moving up towards Simintin. a short distance west ot Mukden from New Chwang is generally believed. With the Japanese cordon tightening south and east and a column threaten i UK the Russian line of communica tions in the rear toward Mukden, the apjiearance of the Japanese on the oth er side of Mukden would almost pocket General Kuropatkin if he has resolved to accept battle with his whole armv at Liao nun. Shrewd military at taobes are extremely doubtful whethei Geueral Kuropatkin could now with draw even if lie so desired. Another alarming feature of th( situation in connection with the Jap auese western column is the rcjiorf that it includes many Chinese who ar< Japanese subjects, from the Island ol Formosa, whose influence on the loea Chinese and the soldiers of General Ma and Viceroy Yuanshikai is feared JAPS ARE NORTH OF HAI ChENCj ST. PETERSBURG. Aug 10,-Em peror Nicholas has received despatr-hei from General Kuropatkin, dated An gust 8 and i», mentioning a few minoi reconnoissances, but saying that then has been no particular change in tin positions on either the east or soutl fronts. ,On the south the Japanese ad vance posts are nine miles north ol Hai Olieng. The fusillades occur be tween the Russian and Japanese out posts. General Kuropatkin points out thf fact that the Japanese are using hul lets of different calibre, some with nickel and others with copper cover ings, showing reserve men an now in fighting line.

Vast numbers of quail are caught in Italy and particularly in the lHlund of Capri. The nets arc stationary engines and arc set upon the shore, a little above sea level, upon the southern and eastern ends of the island. The nets 112 are line, dyed a gray color and all but invisible. They arc stretched between poles all along the coast so as to lnter | eept the migrants. Along the bottom part of the net is a pouch or bag. The quails strike tin net and llutter down ward into the network bag in helpless exhaustion. Many drop dead or dying | into the sea. Others fly ashore with I such force that they flash themselves to pieces on the rocks, where hawks | await them. The birds fly by night, and the catch i ers are at their nets at dawn. The | day's work is over by N a. m. Many which escape the first nets are sought out upon tlie inner parts of the island and captured with small hand nets, which the quail catcher very cleverly uses when the birds have been marked down by a dog. Some fabulous figures have been given of the numbers of quails taken in the island of Capri alone. It is said that nowadays from fifty to sixty thousand are annually caught, and the island, as every one who has been to Naples knows, is a small spot. At other places along the Italian coasts a different system of netting is favored. The nets are but a yard high, though of great length. The bottom is securely pegged down to the sand close along the edge of the sea. The top Is supported by notched sticks so lightly that a blow to the net knocks it down and entangles within its meshes what ever strikes it. The quails arrive flying swiftly and close above the surface of the wnter. Each bird lands in the net with a Jerk and is covered by the part which it dislodges lrniu the supporting sticks. These nets are sometimes half a mile long, and the owner walks slowly from end to end, collecting the birds and set ting up the sticks again. It Is said that the captives are so ravenous for meat and drink and so bold in disposi tion that they feed and quench their thirst ten minutes after they are cov ered up In the baskets. That quails migrate in enormous masses has long been notorious. In autumn the birds travel southward less hurriedly, and decoy birds are used to call their fellows into the nets. They are male birds which are blinded with redhot Irons. Whifttler'n Sharp wit. Mortimer Menpes In his book, "Whis tler iis I Knew 111 in," gives this illus tration of the painter's sharp wit: As he grew older Whistler's love of practical Jokes did not diminish. When quite a lad he was placed In a govern ment office, but his originality wrought his destruction, and he was dismissed. Just as he was leaving the office he passed through the chief's room, and his eye was caught by a huge magni fying glass which lay on a desk. Now, this glass was no ordinary one, but was used on the most solemn occasions by the "old man" only and was held In much awe by the staff. Whistler, full of bitter thoughts, stooped over the desk for a moment and painted a little demon right in the middle of the sa cred magnifying glass and passed on his way with a smile. *Ncxt day, when the great man solemnly lifted Ids glass to inspect something, he saw nothing but a horrid little grinning demon and dropped it on the table with a howl, thinking that he had gone out of his mind. JKor u ( old In th«* Head. 1 lie following is said to cure a cold In the head In the morning after ris ing and at nluht before retiring wash the feet and legs as high up as the knees in cold water, then rub them with a rough towel and massage them till the skin is red and glowing. In ad dition to this cautiously snuff tepid wa ter up the nose frequently during the day and sip with a teaspoon a glassful as hot as can be borne an hour before each meal and at bedtime. A few days is often quite sufficient for simple cases and obstinate onc> yield if the treat ment is prolonged. No medicines are required, if taken in the first stages of the disease a cold is lirbken up which might otherwise become a severe case of bronchitis lasting many days or weeks. lloilliiK Point of Water. Water boils at different temperatures, according to the elevation above sea level, in London water boils practical ly at 212 degrees I\; in Munich, In Germany, at 200'j degrees; in the Oity of Mexico at 2'to degrees, and in the Himalayas, at an elevation of 18,000 feet above the level of the sea, at 180 degi These differences are caused by the varying pressure of the atmos phere at these points. In London the whole weight of the air has to be over come. In Mexico, T.oikj feet above the sea, there is 7,<nio feet less of atmos phere to be resisted; consequently less heat is required and boiling takes place at a lower temperature.—London < 'hrouicle. The Value of a .Sunny Soul. The world Is too full of sadness and sorrow, misery and sickness. It needs more sunshine. It needs cheerful lives which radiate gladness. It needs en couragers who will lift and not bear down, who will encourage, not discour age. Who can estimate the value of a sun ny soul who scatters gladness and good cheer wherever he goes Instead of gloom and sadness? Everybody Is at tracted to these cheerful faces and sunny lives and repelled by the gloomy, the morose and the sad. We envy peo ple who radiate cheer wherever they go and fling out gladness froiu every pore. Money, houses and lands look contemptible beside such a disposition. The ability to radiate sunshine Is a greater power than beauty or than mere mental accomplishments. Suc cess.

"I used to know In Australia an In telligent anil Interesting missionary,'' wild un English nobleman. "lie and I were talking one day about the na tives of New Guliien, and he told in® how one of these natives had stumped him In a certain argument. It seems that he had accosted the native and urged him to let himself he civilized. "'But what good,' the native asked, 'will this civilization of yours do me?' " 'Well,' said the missionary, 'you will cease, for one thing, to idle all your time away. You will learn the delights of honest labor.' " 'What good will the labor do me?' " 'Through It you will gradually ac cumulate money, and in time, with frugality, you will possess much store of honestly acquired riches.' "The native was still unconvinced. 'What good will the riches do me?' was bis next question. "'They,' said the missionary, 'will enable you to cease from work at last and to spend the rest of your days In well earned rest.' "The native laughed. " 'lt seems to me,' lie said, 'that if 1 did as you say 1 would be taking a mighty roundabout course to get to thf place I started from.' " INDIA RUBBER.
