A Novel Entertainment to Appear a,
the Central Opera House Saturday,
January 40.

The management of the opera
house has been fortunate in securing
novelty in the amusement line in
the wonderful "Lilliputians Com
pany" who will appear at Central
Opera House Saturday evening.
They are a bright and intelligent
little people. The company consists
of fourteen acting little men and
women ranging from % to 40 inches
in heghth, who are singers, dancers
and comedians. Their yellow
Kid Act" and the "Comic Comedy"
of the little people is something
marvellous. The crowd that usually
greet the entrance of this company
into town is equal to that brought
by a circus. This is their first
tour west of Chicago and they are
meeting with the greatest of success.
They have no imitators as their
work is original and cannot be du-
pficated in this country. Their
leading lady, Dollieta (the doll LADY,
is but % inches high and singer
of great ability, and the people at
tending the performance will have
the pleasure of seeing the smallest
women in the world. One of the
amusing features of the entertain,
ment being the boxing contest be
tween two of the smallest of the
small men. Other comic characters
to be seen in their farce are Happy
Hooligan, Gloomy Gus, Foxey anc
Grandpa, and the Katzenjammer
Kids presented by these comedian
as they alone can do.
Any amusement seeker not at
tending next Saturday will certain
ly miss great treat and one nevel
to be forgotten as they are the tall
of the town for days after they arr
gone.

The laps Closing in All
Around Port Arthur.
Said to Be Almost in European
Section of Town.
Only a Question of Repeated and Per-
sistent Assaults, Though Russians
Are Determined to Resist and Fight
to the Very Last Ditch.

Che Foo, Aug. 26.-3 p. MA Rus
sian, who has an intimate knowledge
of Port Arthur Notifications, explains
that there are three forts known as
No. 5. This accounts for the various
conflicting reports regarding fghting
at No. 5. Two batteries on the left
wing bear this number as does also
strong fort to the left of Etseshan 1ort.
The fort near Etseshan is believed TO
have been the object of the nghtlhg
reported from here, yesterday. as the
Japanese being already in possession OF
E.tseshan, it would be comparatively
tasy for them to capture the adjoining
ronghold
This move brings the japanese ad-
ance guard close to the section OF
Port Arthur known as the European
settlement. japanese here expect that
their army may even enter the resi-
dence and business district of Port
Arthur. but this would not necessarily
mean the fall of the Russian strong
hold.
The Russian defences are arranged
with the idea of resisting as long as
there Is a man left and the nature of
their defences suggests that the final
stand will occur at Liaoti mountain
fort.

one of the best that has ever been en-
tered for a race on the American turf.
While the number of starters may be

Quality more than makes up the de-
hCiency in quantity, and with such
sure starters as SySonby, winner of

THE JAPS ADVANCING.
Said to Be Closing in on Russians in
All Directions.

Kantzertun, Aug. 26.-Seven miles
southeast of Lao Yang.-Contrary to
the expectation of the Russians, the
Japanese are beginning to advance
along the whole line Of the Russian
eastern front. On the morning of Aug.
"a there was a rifle skirmish and the
next day the Japanese artillery opened
fire. On both days the firing line ceased
at dusk and the small energy dis
played by the Japanese might have
been taken to indicate that it was mere
~ demonstration or a reconnaissance
in force. In the morning of the 18th.
however. the rifle and artillery fire was
renewed with an energy that left no
doubt that a severe battle was intend
ed.
The Japanese pushed their attack
against the Russian right flank ana
center concentrating their fire upon the
first battery of the Sd Brigade. Three
officers and several men We're wounded
early in the day, but the battery held
it's position and replied to the Japan
ese fire with such marked effect that
Gen. Ivanoff (who commands the late
Gen. Count Keller's CORPSE sent con-
gratulatory message to it's command
err.
The Japanese several times attempt
ed to cross the TankChO U4iank river),
but only a fw succeeded and these were
forced to hide in the fields of Chinese
corn.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the ar
tiIlery fire became as hot as it was al
Vaiangow. but it fuctuated cOnsidera-
bly, and occasionally the Russian fire
almost silenced that Of the Japanese.
Rains fell in torrents at 4 o'clock, but
it did not stop the fighting and late in
the evening, several Russian companies
moved forward to the attack.
1t is not yet possible to state definite
" the result of the battle, but it is
claimed that the Russians were sue
Cessful.
There is prospect Of more fighting,
tomorrow.
