THE CRISIS At HAND.

End of the Japan-China Trouble Looked
For Soon.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.-The crisis Of
the ina-Japan war is looked for with
in the next 10 days or two weeks by
these most interested and best informed
on the contest. The legations of the
two countries are expecting daily to
hear that the decisive battle has been
fought. This is based on the fact that
the japanese have been gradually clos
ing in around Pekin, and the invading
army is compelled by force of circum-
stances to strike their blow at once or
not at all. The intense cold which
comes on about the middle of October
makes this imperative. The Japanese
climate is very mild even in winter,
and the Japanese troops are wholly un-
prepared for the rigorous climate about
Pekin, which is due within two weeks.
The Chinese look upon this as one of
their defenses, and the Japanese fully
appreciate that it compels them to con-
centrate their campaign for this year
into the next few weeks, and if posi-
BILE, days: For that reason they are ex-
pected to make heroic efforts to decide
the contest at once. They are without
heavy clothing, camp equipments, etc.,
for campaign in the bitter cold.

BIOGRAPHICAL.

Oliver Wendell Holmes was born at
Cambridge, Mass, Aug %, 1909. He
graduated at Harvard college in 1929 and
began the study of law, which he soon
abandoned for that of medicine. After
taking his degree of M. D. he spent some
time in the hospitals in Paris and other
Eurpean countries. He returned to Bos-
ton in 1886 and began practicing. In 1888
we was elected professor of anatomy and
philosophy in Dartmouth college and in
1s4s was elected to similar professorship
In the medical school of Harvard univer-
sity, from which he retired in 1859. But
it is chiefly as a writer that DR.. Holmes is
known, as early as 1881, his contributions
appearing in various periodicals, and his
reputation as poet was established by
the delivery of metrical essay entitled
Poetry" which was followed by others
In rapid succession. In 1857 he began in
The Atlantic Monthly series of articles
under the title of "The Autocrat of the
Breakfast Table," which were followed in
1850 by the "Poet at the Breakfast Table" "
and in 1885 by "The Newport Folio" AS
writer of song, lyrics and poems for fes-
tive occasions, he has long occupied the
first place. The latter years of his life
have been spent in quiet retirement at
Beverly Farms, broken occasionally by a
lecture to the Harvard students.

News of Serious Fighting by Belgians in
Africa.
LONDON, Oct. 8-The Exchange Tele-
graph company announces that the
African mail has brought news of seri-
GUS fighting between the Arabs and
Belgians in the Congo state. It is
alleged by these advices that the Belgi-
ans claimed truce after heavy fighting
and that they have hemmed in the
Arabs and massacred them without
quarter.
Another account says that the Arabs,
commanded by Chief Rumiliza, after
truce agreed upon conference which
was eventually commenced, but almost
Immediately afterwards, the Arab pow
der magazine exploded. This caused
both sides to- suspect treachery and
fighting between them was resumed.
The Arabs were surrounded on all sides
by the Belgians and were nearly all
massacred Chief Rumiliza succeeded
in escaping, but the great majority of
his followers perished. Over thirty
chiefs were numbered among the slain.
The Belgians captured 100000 lakhs
worth of property.

The Arkansas City visited BY 8 Destructive
Cyclone.
LITTLE Rock. Ark, Oct. "A ter
rible cyclone struck this city at 7:30 p.
m. and almost devastated the business
portion of the city. Several people are
known to have been killed and injured,
while it is feared scores Of others have
met the same horrible fate. The main
portion. of the business center is prac-
tically in ruins and the amount Of
damage is incalculable. The total
property loss will probably approximate
100000. The cyclone was accom-
panied by terrible storm and the
stocks of goods in those business houses
which were unroofed, though not 9th
erwise wrecked, were destroyed by
water. The storm struck the state pen
itentiary, which stands on hill in the
western part of the city, with fearful
force, destroying the diningroom, tear
ing down the stable and shops, unroof-
ing the main cell building and demol-
ishing the warden's Office. Several
convicts were seriously injured, one Of
whom died an hour afterwards.

were nvted and the removal was
thought advisable. Itproved, however,
very fatiguing and the doctor did not
regain his former condition. Last Fri
day, sudden attack of heart failure
suddenly siezed him, which, with the
ong-standing asthmatic trouble, pros
trated him. But during the morning
he had apparently recovered. After
the physicians had gone, however, the
doctor was siezed with severe spasm
and before medical aid could be called,
he had passed away. He was uncon-

death. Around his bedside were gath
cred the members of this family, Judge
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., the only
surviving son; Mrs. Oliver Wendell
Holmes, Jr., and Edward J.. Holmes,
nephew of the poet. Although the
poets death occurred shortly after mid
day, it did not become known until q

AID FIRE SUFFERERS.

Recommendations in the Annual Report
of Land Commissioner Lamoreaux.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-S. W. Lamor-
eaux, commissioner of the general land
Office, in his annual report TO the secre.
tary of the interior, makes several sug-
gestions for the benefit of the sufferers
by forest fires in Michigan, Wisconsin
and Minnesota. He says:
'"The timber affected by these fires on
public lands has been left in such a
condition that if not cut and disposed
of in short time, it will become worm
eaten and worthless, thus depriving the
land Of the great portion of it's value to
the settler seeking title thereto. Mum.
erous applications have been made by
the sufferers by these fires for permis-
sion to cut the timber at once and
sell it,
He therefore recommends that con-
gress be asked to give the permission
necessary to allow the cutting of this
timber and thus prevent the total loss
of millions of feet. He also suggests
that congress take other necessary steps
for the relief of the fire sufferers, fol.
lowing the precedent set in similar
cases.

If He Was Rightly Informed.

Iheard story the other day of that
now rare official, an old fashioned clergy
man. He Is settled over no church, but
having been for long time in one parish
he has performed the marriage ceremony
for two generations, and baptized as many,
and is always asked either to tender the
last rites to the dead or atleast to assist
in that solemn Office.
He is always very comforting to the
mourners, for the departed is sure OF
heaven. But as he grew older his prayers
grew longer and tiresome. One day the
mother of little family died suddenly,
and the bereaved husband sent for their
regular minister and said:
II must invite old DR.. Blank, for he
married US, and my wife loved him, but
can't endure his remarks. want you to
give him small part of the service to
save his feelings"
The pastor thought he must give his
senior the prayer, but judge of his chagrin
when the old gentleman, after fulsome
panegyric of the deceased, said:
