Japan's Armies in Manchuria.

The special correspondent of the
Herald at Shanghai sends cable des-
patch of great Importance in connec-
ton with Japan's invasion of Man
churia. He informs US that Marshal
Yamagata's army has captured Feng
Huang Cheng and will now march on
Kin Chow EN- route for Pekin. The
idea appears to prevail in Shanghai
that the japanese do not intend to
march on Monkden, their expressed in
tention of doing SO only having been a
ruse to get the Chinese forces out of the
way.
There is another Kin-Chow ON the
western shore of the Regents Sword,
where it is known that Count Oyama
has large army investing Fort Arthur.
1t is possible the two places may have
been mixed up in some way. lis quite
certain that the japanese would never
have spent time and men on capturing
Feng Huang Cheng had they not the
intention of pressing on to the ancient
capital, whose capture would mean in
the alleged minds of the superstitious
Chinese the fall of the Ming dynasty.
The next thing to expect is the capture
of Fort Arthur.-NeeO York Herald.

staunton,s Good Credit.

There can be no doubt that the credit of this
city is A No. 1. Some weeks since the City
Council resolved to save interest on its indebt-
edness by issuing 5 per cent 10-30-year bonds
to retire its per cent bonds to the amount of
$4,000, and, on Thursday last, the capable
and efficient City Treasurer, Arista Hoge, sue
ceeded in selling the per cent bonds at pre-
MUM of q per cent, which will effect saving
in interest alone of $1,000 year, which in 80
years would amount to $4,000, and the q
per cent premium amounts to $3.50. This
was good thing well done

Attempted Suicide.
MIR. CHARLES r. FORD CUTS HIS
THROAT WITH A RAZOR.

MIR. CHARLES R. FORD CUTS HIS
THROAT WITH A RAZOR.
The friends of Mr.. Charles r. Ford
were shocked to-day to learn that he
had attempted to take his life in an
upper room at his residence on EIsom
street, northwest of the First (colored'
Baptist church.
About O'Clock his wife, feeling an
uneasiness at his long absence, went to
his room, and on looking in was horri-
fled to find her husband on the floor,
his life blood ebbing from a gaping
wound in his throat and several in his
hands and wrist.
1t is surmised that he had attempted
to cut an artery in his hand and wrist,
and not succeeding in this effort, cut a
cash about four inches long in his
throat, the razor, the instrument used,
partly severing the windpipe.
Drs. J. G. Gordon and w. E. McCon-
vile were at once summoned, who
sewed up the wounds, and Mr.. Ford is
now doing as well as could be expected.
Had the wound in the throat been a
few inches farther to the right or left
physicians are of the opinion that he
will get well, unless greater quantity
of blood than they now suspect has
gotten into his lungs.
Recently Mr.. Ford suffered the loss
of all his household goods by fire,
which together with other family af-
fict1ons, is supposed to have preyed
upon his mind. A bottle partly filled
with whiskey was found in his room,
from which it is supposed he had i'm
bided to nerve himself to commit the
desperate deed. His doctors would not
allow him to talk.
Mr.. Ford occupies a position of trust
at the University, and enjoys an envi-
able reputation for honesty and integ
rity, and is highly thought of by all
who know him.-ChGrlottesU5Ue Prog

Chinese Soldiers as Sheep.


The cable despatch from the HerGld' s
special correspondent at Shanghai
brings interesting news from Field
Marshal Yamagata's headquarters at
Kiu- Lien Cheng, details of the battle
of Wednesday last, showing how utter
ly, and wretchedly demoralized the
Chinese troops are. The japanese are
just chasing them in all directions, as
if they were flocks of sheep. The great
er number of the Chinese now driven
from Feng- Huang- Cheng are skurrying
north ward in the direction of Moukden,
but as they are throwing away their
arms as they run, they will probably
seek safety in the mountains and trou-
BILE japanese no more. The distance
from Feng Huang Cheng to Moukden
is little over hundred miles, and it is
certain that the ancient capital of the
Mings will be captured before many
days elapse. 1t was the wish of Mar
shall Yamagata to celebrate the Mika-
dos birthday in Moukden, but Jap
anese generals are too level headed to
sacrifice success to sentiment.-N. Y.

ELECTION REruRNS.

About 200 votes in StauntOn, nearly equal
ly divided between the parties, were thrown

master w. T. McCue was another. There
were also quite number of intelligent bust
ness men who lost their votes in that way

equally divided between the parties, was

more serious than amusing.
