At Washington the impression is
that japan has gone too far to hesi-
tate in the use OF force to restrain
any aggressive movement which Rus
sia may make The reports from the
scene of Russian activity are so con
fiicting that It is impossible to tell
what has already been done. but Il
looks like Russia has strengthened
rather than lessened her forces In
Manchuria. Already in control in a
military sense, IL is not probable that
Russia would evacuate while war Is
imminent. A prize so valuable as
Manchuria is not to be lost TO such a
power as Russia II there is any way
to hold IT, Manchuria is very much
like Texas in size "a little larger) ana
in resources. II has a gulf connection
with the world. has an agreeable eli.
mate, a variety OF crops, vast depos-
its Of minerals, oil in abundance. tim
ber enough for all purposes, thriving
towns, large industries. and com.
merce growing more rapidly than that
OF any other Chinese province. China
can not hold the province against
Russia. Japan must do the fighting.
Her commerce in Manchuria is so ex.
tensive that she has almost as much
at stake as China. The dlsmember-

THE REPORTER GOT IN LINE.
He Was Mistaken for an Iron Worker
 Looking for a Job.

It was the cub reporters first week on the city newspaper. and he was keen for an assignment that would demonstrate his apparently unprece- dented ability says the Kansas City Journal It came not many days ago when the city editor of the afternoon publication gave him an assignment that was full of promise. He was to write up the start Of the building of the Nelson Morris packing plant in the west bottoms, and when he was told that he could have an artist his cup of happiness was full.
 It happened that the artist was also a cub, whose talent only needed chance to bloom. So keen were report CT and artist 10 get to their work that they got up unusually early and went out to the site of the packing house construction. They were to inquire for MT. Dinger, purchasing agent, who has a temporary office on the ground MT Dinger was full of business and hundreds of men were on hand seeking work

RUNAWAY.

Sunday morning, just as the driver of Chas Peterson's milk wagon had completed weighing out his lead of milk. the horses concluded to warm up by taking a little spin around the yard. They started at good clip, went down the runway, circled to the carpenter bench near the fence where the wagon made a flop with wheels sticking up in the air. The horses then doubled back. made another trip over the runway, and when slightly to the east one of the animals fell, and was secured. The other kept on in its wild career until it became fastened in the stockyards and was captured.
 Strange to say neither of the horses were injured; but the wagcn-well, few pieces of scrap iron and nickeFs worth of kindling were about all that was saved from the wreck.

When the reporter mentioned the name of his paper MT. Dinger. who was very busy. turned to the reporter and said:
 Get in line out there, can't talk to you tin your turn comes"
 The reporter was dazed, but there was TIC help for it. He had been told to get in line and he had to get the story.
 The reporter with the artist at his heels, went out into the cold and look ed for a line. They found one that looked more promising than the oth- CTS and they got on the tail of it and stood there.
 For half an hour artist and reporter kept their lonely vigil and their line made little progress and they were no nearer MT. Dinger than when they be- gan. Wild thoughts of revolt filled the brain of the reportorial cub. but there seemed no other way of getting the story, and that story must be written. He secretly gloated upon what he would do to the unsympathetic MI. Dinger when he got a chance and bv way of temporary balm to wounded pride, the reporter determined that his story of the building of the Neon Morris plant he would not mention MT. Dinge- at all. That would be punish ment for a greater crime than that committed by MT. Dinger.
 The artist was not stimulated by the same professional zest that sustained the reporter. and besides his hands were cod. He was for going ahead and getting the story without MT. Dinger's aid.
 Let's get out of this" he suggested. The reporter wavered. Just then MT. Dinger came cut of his office and was hurrying across the grounds when the reporters spirit came to him and he boldly accosted the purchasig agent.
 Look here" said he, I'm a reporter sent over here to write about your blooming old packing house and I was told to see you. If you are going to keep me standing cut here in the cold all day I want to know it."
 MT. Dinger looked at the reporter and then at the shivering artist. 'Whewi" he said "I didn't know you were d reporter. I thought yea were iron workers wanting job. Come into the office and get thawed out" |" and he led the way to where the re- porter got the story
