RUSSIAN CossACKs.

A Toxic dispatch says that a de-
tachment of Japanese troops, last Sat
urday, attacked and routed force Of
1000 Cossacks after one hours en-
gagement with the loss of only four
men. II this proves true, It should
be noted for the Russian Cossack has
played an important role in the eSpan-
sion OF the Russian empire, lie has
been represented as the iercest and
most Irresistible OF cavalry men. The
Cossack regiments were, mt the begin
ming of this war, considered the main
strength of the Russian army Are we
to see all these IDEAS about the Cossack
changed, as facts come TO light?
The Japanese themselves regard
these fighters OF the car with utter
contempt Japanese officers have
studied their habits and noted their en-
durance and other qualities, and they
report, In part, that they live more like

A JUST VERDICT.

The New York Independent does not
approve OF the verdict passed by a
jury according TO which hus-
band who had killed his wifes para
mour was declared not guilty. It
disapproves the verdict on the ground
that It declares by implication that a
wife Is a kind of property morally II
not Legally "a chattel whose husband
owns her In conyentionally moral
sense very much as in legal sense he
might own cow
That Is a startling argument II the
case had been reyersed-lf the wife,
smartlng under injury, had killed the
husbands affinity" or even the hus-
band, there Is not jury In America

wise law Is not law. hut caprice.
The principle laid down by the In
dependent is correct, however, It
says that n husband has mo moral
right to interfere with his wfes con-

persuasion until she commits a breach
Of the peace, and no moral right then

outsider might employ Their rela-

now holds. In responding the mayor took
advantage "of the opening to make good

a sudden rise in temperature, accom-
panied by a snowstOrm that later in the
night turned into sleet, demoralized the
street car system last night and made
walking extremely difficult and unpleasant.
Belated citizens huddled on street corners
last night while waiting for cars, but there
was little complaint.
II was warmer and after the recent cold
wave anything short of a blizzard, if ac-
companied by warmer weather, would have
proved welcome.
The weather bureau officials also were
happy. They predicted snow and slightly
warmer weather and their predictions came
true. More snow is promised for to-mor-
row with continued fair, but slightly colder
