RUSSIANS IN MANCHURIA.
They Are Still There and Evidently Have
Not the Rvmotest Intention OF
EvRcuating.

New Chwang, Manchuria, Thursday,
Oct. 8-The Russians are taking no
steps to restore the government of New
Chwang to the Chinese. On the con-
trary, they are fastening the erection
of extensive government buildings,
and have added another gunboat to the
naval force here. Reports from north
ern Manchuria indicated that no move
ment has been made toward the evac-
uation of that territory, and Russian
officials are discussing the permanent
occupation of the points now held as
being the settled policy.
The Russian viceroy, Admiral AL
exief, has been conducting joint naval
and military maneuvers on a great
scale in the vicinity of Port Arthur
this week. Ninety Russian war vessels
of all classes were engaged.

perfectly ready. 1t is lying with steam

China is supinely waiting the trend
of events, and seems disinclined to
take any steps in her own behalf, ap-
parently willing that Europe should
take the initiative in checkmating the
Cars moves.
Russia's position in regard ia Mani
churia remains practically unchanged,
while England, the United States ard
Japan, particularly the latter lose
prestige in Corea in favor of Russia,
who is now apparently irresistible IN
the far East. The Japanese are for
the present completely foiled, notwitn-
standing the forcible policy manifested
by them in declining to countenance
the Russian memorandum Of last year
which proposed the recognition of
Japanese predominance in Corea in re-
turn for Japan's sanction of Russia's
permanent occupation of Manchuria.
Russian After War With Japan.
St. Petersburg. Oct 10.-The belief
is rapidly gaining ground that a war
with Japan is desirable for many rea-
sons.
TIE first reason is that the officials
think that Russia will never make
progress in the far east until Japan
has been effectively crippled, and, sec
ond, that war would afford the best
excuse for Russia not to evacuate Man.

war the situation would be so changed
that the United States and other pow
ers would not demand the evacuation.
The military and naval war advo-
Gates are of the opinion that after a
brief campaign Japan would resign all
pretentions to the Asiatic mainland.

A very bright and sensible
young lady of the blooming West
made this request Of a friend:
"Do not lay me down by Il @ rip.
pling brOokside lest the babbling
lovers wake me from my dreams,
nor in the beautiful cemeteries in
the valleys, lest sightseers cooing
over epitaphs distract me; but
let me sleep under the counter of
the merchant and business man
who never advertiSes. There is
the place that passeth all under
standing, and deep is the sleep in
which neither the buoyant foot.
fall of youth nor the weary shut
tle Of old age will ever intrude. "
A whole volume of grave wisdom
can be found in that extract
The quietest place on earth is un.

tlsing establishment. Experience
has long since demonstrated the
fact and now wit has found it

TO Our Readers


The attention of our readers Is

one years ago.
Its assets at the present time
are about Sl4,OO0,OO0, and It's
management is IN the hands Of
some ofPittshurgs leading Gnanc.
iers and business men. There
are few banks III the country that
have earned such SPLENDID rec.
ord for stability and reliability as
has this banking house
Pittsburg, with it's inuumera.
BILE industries and large outlet for
the quick and safe investment of
money, enables the Pittsburg
Bank for Savings to pay very lib
eral rate Of interest; namely, four
per cent. Banks III tho smaller
towns and cities are unable, by
reason of their location, to invest
money as prohtabJy as bank so
as the P,ttsburg Bank
for Savings, and, Of course, it is
to be expected that they could
not. and do not, except in very
rare cases, pay a higher rate Of
interest than 3 per cent; in fact
a great many of them pay but .
per cent, and in many instances
no interest whatever is paid.
The small cost of sending mon.
ey to the Pittsburg Bank for Say
ings enables one to secure the
very liberal rate Of interest which
it pays, and which adds one. third
more to persons income who is
receiving but 3 per cent; and, 30
per cent. additional where only .
per cent is allowed.
Seven years ago, the Pittsburg
Bank for Savings introduced
system of Banking by Mail for
the benefit of those living IN local.

meet It's rate of interest, and this
system of banking Is very large.
ly availed of at the present time.
Fully one-third of the depositors
of the Pittsburg Bank for Sav.
ings do their banking entirely by
mail, and during the seven years
the system has been in operation
not single dollar has been lost to
a depositor. Money may be sent
to the Pittsburg Bank for Say
ing at their risk by means of Bank
Draft, Money Order, or by Regis
tered Mail.
Their Booklet No. F., which the
bank will send to any of our read
ers desiring the same, explains
this system fully, and whether
you have 81 90 or 81 900 to invest
you should have copy of it be-
fore so doing.

Mad Dog Causes Peayy Loss

A dispatch from Wilkes Barre to
the Press says Nineteen COWS OF
a herd owned by Albert Lewis, a
wealthy resident Of Bear Creek, ten
miles from here, were bitten by a
mad dog about ten days ago, and It
is feared that the entire herd will
have to be destroyed.
The dog was killed by a lumber
man and the head sent to the Live
Stock Sanitary Board of Philadel-
phia for examination OF its brain,
which proved that it had rabies.
The herd has been placed sePa-
rately in quarantine and is being
closely watched.
1t is believed that number OF
other cows and dogs in that vicinity
have been bitten and the farmers
are greatly aroused.
State Veterinarian Pierson, OF
Harrisburg, has notified the local
authorities to quarantine all animals
suspected OF having been bitten.

One of the largest meetings the
Wheelmen have ever had was held
Monday evening. The entertain
ment question was taken up and il
was unanimously decided to give a
show about Thanksgiving. The
entertainment will be of the variety
sort and will be continuous per-
formance. The club contains some
of the towns best talent in the his
trionic line, and with the outside
assistance they have secured, the
forthcoming entertainment from an
artistic standpoint, should be sue
cess. AS to the financial outcome
there is little to be feared. The
Wheelmen are popular and all their
friends will want to see them on
this occasion. We rather expect
to see this show smash the Opera
House record. What the Club will
do with the money will be decided
later, but the probability is that it
will be devoted to the purchase ofa
piano.

The new life creating influence of a
