position. This done, the Japanese fell
back in good order with little loss.
Friday night all the japanese forces
were in position for a combined at
tack. The general column was threat
ening the Chinese left flank. The
Pung Sang column was facing the
Chinese center and the Hwang Zu
column was operating on the Chinese
right. The latter column had been
reinforced the day before by detach-
ment of marines and bluejackets
from the fleet stationed at the mouth
of the Ia Tong river. The Chinese
had realized the inutility of their old
defenses at Ping Yang and threw up
new works, and their position was ex-
ceptionally strong.
The battle opened Saturday morn
ing at daybreak, with direct can
nonade upon the Chinese works, and
this fire was continued without cessa-
ton until the afternoon. The Chinese
fought their guns well, repl ying effect
lively to the Japanese fire.
At p. m. body of Japanese infan-
try was thrown forward in a skirmish
order and they kept up rifle fire upon
the enemy until dusk. All the fight
ing during the day was done by the
Pung San column.
The Chinese defenses suffered ex-
ceedingly from the japanese fire, but
it is doubtful if the losses on either
side were great, as the troops, both
Chinese and Japanese, took every adj
vantage possible of shelter which
earthworks on one side and the nature
Of the ground on the other afforded.

The Girl Monarch OF tho Netherlands Has
No Love for Germany.
1t is well known that for political
reasons the German emperor desires to
see the bctrothal Of Prince Albrecht
of Prussia, regent Of Brunswick, and
Wilhelmina, the girl queen of Holland
His wishes are not likely to be graft
fed, rs her girlish majesty has no
strong regard for Germany or her pco-
pie. Her feeling in this regard is but
a reflex Of that of her subjects, with
whom she is very popular. Queen Will
helmina was fourteen years old on the
3lst Of August, and the occasion was
celebrated with festivities throughout
Holland. 1t is understood that her
mother, Queen Regent Emma, would
gladly welcome Prince Carl of Den
mark as suitor for her daughters
hand. The young queen passes most
of her time at the royal castle Of Loo,
an ancient looking residence from the
outside, but thoroughly modernized
as to interior. Wilhelmina leadsa reg
ular life, good deal Of her time being
taken up in study. Unfounded stories
regarding her health have been pub
lishcd. The truth is, the young mon
arch is an unusually nervous child,
and for that reason lives as quietly
rs possible. When at Tho Hague OF
Amsterdam she and her mother drive
through the streets daily.

"Killer Whales" Attack n Cow Wha
and Her Calf.

"Kiler Whales" Attack n Cow Whale
and Her Calf.
An attack made by three killer
whales upon COW whale and her calf,
in q lagoon along the coast just south
Of here, recently, says a San Diego
(Cal.) dispatch, was one of the
most exciting fish fights ever OBJ
served here. The COW whale was
of the California gray species, the calf
being three times the bulk of the
largest of the killer whales. The latter
made alternate assaults upon the old
whale and her offspring, finally killing
the calf, which sank in five fathoms of
water. During the terrific struggle the
mother was nearly exhausted, recciv
ing several deep cuts about the throat
and lips. When the carcass of the calf
settled to the bottom the three killers
descended, bringing up large pieces of
flesh, which they devoured at the sur.
face. While thus gorging themselves
the wounded mother whale escaped.
leaving bloody trail.
These killer whales fight almost
everything they see, and they fight to
win. AS pugilists of the sea they are
incompatible. Strongly built bodies,
an arrow-like swiftness in swimming
and a bulldog disposition strike terror
to all their opponents. Even the terri
BILE man-eater and tiger sharks will run
from killer whale. Tho heavily
armed swordfsh is IN easy victim to
this savage foe. Seals, whales and big
fish generally have mortal fear of
him, and invariably run away from
him if they can. The spectacle Of u
fight between these wolves Of the
ocean and the large whales they at
tack is something long to be remem-
bered. When several killers attack
their gigantic prey they might be
lilened in some respects to pack OF
hounds holding the stricken deer at
bay. They cluster about the lcvia-
than's head, some of their number
preaching over it, while others seize it
by the lips and haul the bleeding mon
ster under water. When captured,
should the mouth of the victim be open,
the killers eat out its tongue.
Killer whales interfere with the at
fairs Of men at times Instances are
reported where bands of killers have
attacked the carcass Of whale as the
whalcrs were towing it to the ship
and forcibly carried away the dead fish
They destroy many young fur seal, and
often remain long time IN the vicinity
Of the seal islands. In the stomach OF
killer sixteen feet long were found
thirteen porpoises and fourteen seals.
Sometimes the killer attacks full
grown walrus, robbing it of its young
These whales are frequently found
twenty to thirty feet long. The high.
filmed killer has an enormous dagger
shaped fin upon its back six feet long.
When the fish swims high tAis fin tow
ers above the surface, and observers
unacquaintcd with it have been posi-
tive that it was sea-serpent. Thi.
ferocious whale is related to the 'por
poise and dolphin.

THE SECOND GAME
Good Ball by the League
of Colleges.
Individual Work That Compared Ea-
vorabIy With That Done by
Many Professionals.

The second of the series Of baseball games
between the ST. Mary's and st. Ignatius College
teams In the Intercollegiate League occurred
Yesterday afternoon before a small audience.
cool wind swept over the grand stand and
possibly prevented many from attending who
who would have been present nad the weather
been more pleasant.
AS for the game itself it was decidedly more
interesting than that OF last Saturday, some OF
the Individual work comparing very fayorably
with that of professionals.
Coonev, who was in the box for the st. Mary's
team, did some decidedly fine work. He struck
cut seven men and did some very effective
fielding. Pbelan, second baseman for the same
nine, was to bat four times and mad run
each time. V. GalIndo made a very pretty
double play in The first inning unassisted and
Mcneil made dlt1cult fOul-ny catch IN the
eighth from MOTtOn'S bat.
For The ST. Ignatlus nine the fielding of Gren.
nan was really brilliant. a the sixth inning
Brake sent hard one out INTO deep left field,
which he caught al er long run and while at
fun sp- I'd. In The next Inning he captured one
from MeNeFs bat while on DEAD run and
when tire ball was almost on the ground; and IN
the last inning be gathered tn another difficult
hail which Y. Gando cent HIM. MeErOy did
yery we'll in the box, striking out four men and
firiding his position fairly well
In The first inning each SIDE made run and
in fhe second 81. ,iaTy's got one man across the
home pIate while ST. IgnatiuS drew blank.
Neither side scored IN me nlId. Dut IN the
credit aud in the sixth still anoiher, whlle the
ST. Igua,ius boys apparently were unable To get
a man around tie circuit
In the seventh inning, however. Cooney let up
a little after his side had been reired with a
blank, and the st. Ignalius lads waded into his
delivery with surprising alacIty, and before
MIR Cooney had recovered his normal cOmpos-
ure OF mind they had added nye runs 10 their
credit.
The eighth inning proved a disastrous one TO
The now elated ST. Igual ius nine, their oppo-
nents hammered McElroy all over the field aud
NOT only tied the score but took The lead by three
runs which ID other nlnr were unable To over
come bo >Ides drawing a blank in the last In
Ming. Following is the score:
