THE END APPROACHING.
What the Fall of Moukden Means to China
Her Navy is Useless.

Shanghai, December 5.-The loss OF Mouk-
den would bring upon Ch1na's relgnlng
house loss of prestige second only to that
involved in the fall of Pekin itself. For
Moukden is the cradle of the Manchu race,
and it is intimately connected with Inc
most cherished associations of the Manchu
dynasty. Near it lie buiied the hrst Ed
perors of 0the imperial line. and IN the
palace, situated in the very heart OF the
city, succeeding Emperors accumulated'
year after year, a vast hoard OF wealth.
This treasure has, it is said, been all re-
moved, SO that when the japanese reach
the ssFlourishing Capital they Will lind
that little booty is to be had. But the moral
effect OF capturing the city (which, by the
way, is strongly walled and fortihed-wlll
be enormous.
When it is known that the japanese flag
waves over the sacred palace enclosure,
entrance to which has hitherto been forbid
zen TO all but Manchus, and that the
imperial tombs are surrounded BY the troops
of the invaders, a blow Will have been
struck at the credit, and cons equently at
the stability of the dynasty from which IL
will find it difficult TO recover. China Is
honeycombed with secret societies, whose
constant aim is the overthrow of the Mirigs,
and the discredit attaching to the tall OF
sacred Moukden, would strengthen enor-
mously their appeal to the revolutionary
spirit already working SO actively in China.
sts A CoWARDLY FLEET.
The opinion of European and* American
naval officers, and l have it from many
personally, is, that China is absolutely
finished as far as the sea is concerned. The
Nan-yaag, or Southern squadron, has been
repeatedly ordered to proceed north from
Shanghai and the Yang-tse to reinforce the
shattered Pei-yang fleet, but so far the
southern oacers have succeed ed in making
excuses for lying in shelter here. They are
alike impervious to shame and TO the orders

Have Their Country Under European
Control.


London, Decem Der 5-The Press rep
resentative today had an interview
with Secretary Atkins, of the Anglo-Ar
menian Association. The association
presented memorial to the foreign en-
bassies in London in relation to the
massacres. The memorial alleges that
the Portes official statmeuts are now, as
they have been heretofore, false. The
Armenians have been tricked for sixteen
years. The execution of Zekki. the
pasha who commanded the force who
committed the outrages. and his inferi-
ors will not be sufficient. The massacre
was due, it is asserted, to the Porte's
deliberate orders, ana the association
will ask the assistance of Armenians in
the United States, and will demand that
Armenia be forthwith placed under Eu-
ropean control. The association has
given expression to its qualification at
the resolutions adopted by the United
States Senate on Decem Der 8, protesting
against the atrocities and directing the
circumstances OF the government be COM
municated to Turkey.

THE WATER QUESTION AGAIN.

Another housekeeper adds her com.
plant to that of yesterday on this vex.
ing question, as appears from the ap.
pended letter Cannot some relief be
devised for these unfortunate women
or will not some one of the sterner sex
(of whom, there is reason to fear, the
present correspondent has too exalted
an opinion) do something or say some
thing to prove their complaint imagin-
ary or unfounded. There is grave dan
ger that these cries of distress, il re-
peated too often, may finally penetrate
the seclusion Of our honorable COM
Snissloners and disturb the even and
peaceful tenor Of their ways; consum-
nation which will be devoutly regretted
by all.
Editor Astorian: Your kind reception
of the recital of the trials of a. house
Keeper, and more her example, lead
me to add my testimony to hers. 1 am
naturally quiet, patient, long-suffer-
ing woman, not easily disturbed by tri-
fies, and enduring philosophically what
cannot be remedied. 1t had never oc-
Cured to my woman's mind that money
for new and efficient water works
could be even in sight, to say nothing
of being in hand
Then, too, my trustful woman's ma
ture has always led me to believe i'm
plicitly in mans ability to transact all
business, to overcome all obstacles-in
fact, to move he>world.
So. you see, when mans skill and in
genuity failed, as in the case of the
water commissioners, it must be be-
cause of the total depravity of mani
mate objects
Now, with my faith in mans eff
cheney, as well as chivalry, wrecked 1
add my experience to that of my braver
sister, "Housekeeper."
Monday morning, washing experience
identical with hers. Four small chill
dren, with eyes heavy from sleep, wait
the refreshing influence of the morning
bath, before being physically or men
tally toned up to begin the day.
Experience has made the mother
wary so the faucet is turned before
letting out the water left in the bowl
over night for emergencies. No water,
so the four little ones must all have
faces and hands washed in the same
water.
Besides the unhealthfulness and want
of cleanliness, what a check put upon
all previous lessons in fastidifus care
of the person, so hard, at the best, to
instill into the minds Of little. children.
Breakfast, not properly prepared for
lack Of water; dishes halfway washed;
the whole days work unsatisfactory in
the extreme-and why?
Can the commissioners answer?
Very respectfully,
EXASPERATED HOUSEKEEFER.

THE WATCHES OF THE NIGHT

When of the repeated kind experienced
by persons troubled with insomnia, soon
bring about an alarming condition of
the nervous system. The shaking hand,
confusion of the brain, lapses of menu
ory and loss of appetite indicate, with
terrible precision the ravages produced
by loss of sleep, which If unremedied
must destroy mental equilibrium alto
gether. No bett%- and thorough ner-
vine exists than Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Common sense and experience
point to it's early and steady use in cases
of insomnia 1t strengthens weak and
relaxes the tension of oversGrained
nerves, which, by the way, resort to
unmedicated stin.ulants will never do
permanently, while the after effect of
such excitants is most prejudicial. Un>
der the influence of this benign invig-
orant appetite, digestion and sleep re-
turn. and bodily comfort and health are
alike promoted. 1t is invaluable in
chills and fever, liver complaint, con-
stipation, rheumatic and kidney trouble.
