EDITS PAPER NEAR
RUINS OF LUCKNOW

Benjamin Aitken, late editor of the
Indian Daily Telegraph at Lucknow
India, was a through passenger yester-
day on the Aorangi, en- route to Eng
land. Mr.. Aitken has been a resident
of India for the past twenty years, and
editor of the Telegraph for three years.
The city of Lucknow is famous as
having been the scene of the most
memorable British defense during the
Sepoy uprising. Mr.. Aitken states that
the ruins of the various compounds
and places used by the beleaguered
garrison, are most carefully preserved
by the government in memory of the
brilliant heroism of the men and wo-
men who successfully held the place
1t is an object lesson in heroism to the
British nation which causes the gov
ernment to preserve the ruins to pos
terity.
The editor states also that at Luck
now are buildings which existed I'M
der the Mahometan Empire, and still
have a magnificent appearance.

A SILLY SAYING.

''It is a common but silly opin-
ion prevailing among a GER
tain class of people that the
worse a remedy tastes, smells or
hurts, the more etlicacious it is"
SO says a well-known English
physician. He further adds
"For example, let us consider
cod liver oil. AS it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so often
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, no
matter how badly they need it.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and it is the greatest pity that
we have not thus far been able
to free it from those peculiari-
ties which so seriously interfere
with its usefulness" . This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as a leading in
gredient in the remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the oil retains all its wonderful
curative properties with no bad
smell or taste whatever. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritiye and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver

Sharp Retorts In
The Halls of
Justice.
1rrom wednegday,g Advertlser.l

(From Wednesdays Adveruser)
Should DIR. Carter of Makao he in
sufficiently good health to testify he
may be able to clear up some tangled
ends in the case of Henriques VS.. Jessie
Kaai which is now being heard In
Judge Roblnson's court. on the wit
ness stand yesterday Mr. Henriques
stated that DR.. Carter was residing at
his home in Nuuanu Valley, and that
he had become quite strong physically
and mentally, and he believed he would
be able to testify concerning the house
hold goods of the Carter homestead
upon which the present proceedings are
based.
The case was brought by Mr. Hen
riques in the interest of the Carter
minors, alleging that the administra-
trix, Jessie Kaai, had misused the
property, broken the dishes, allowed
the fences to become broken down,
permitting cattle to trespass, and in
toto to neglect her duties as adminis-
tratrix of the estate of the late Mrs.
Garter.
Mr.. Ashford appeared for Mrs. Kaai,
and Mr. Milverton for Mr. Henriques.
There were some sharp retorts during
the examination of witnesses, Mr.. Ash
ford making objections by the cart
load. At one time Milverton said to
Ashford:
Where are those things now, Mr..
Ashford?"
Mr.. Milverton was quite astonished
when he got this sharp reply.
That's none of your business!'
During an argument on objection be-
ing made by Ashford to the judge, At
torney Milverton stepped up to Mr..
Henriques who was occupying the wit
ness chair the witness whispering
something to his attorney. Ashford
Strengthened up at once and said sar-
castically:
This is something new in the prac-
tice, since Mr.. Milverton returned from
his world tour
The Judge thought Mr.. Ashford was
splitting hairs, and too many of them.
Upon Mr.. Ashford's suggesting that
If DR.. Carter was in good health he
might testify and clear up many
tangled points, Judge Robinson said he
favored the idea also.

BLOW TO POOL ROOMS
WESTERN UNION SHUTS OFF NEWS :, SERVICE.
Radical Action Is Taken by Presldeht and General Manager CIOwry. - Police Commissl0ner McAdO0
 is Highly Pleased.

New York, May IL-Col. Robert c. Clowry, President and General Manager of the Western Union Telegraph Com pany suddenly shut off the service of racing news to all classes of subscribers in this city today.
 The action of Colonel Clowery, taken entirely on his own initiative, without instructions from his Board of Directors, or any pressure from the authorities, was the result of claims recently made public by police officials that the pool rooms of New York city could not exist without the Western Union service.
 Recently a civic organization called the City Club. made public charges that if the Western Union would assist them the pool room evil in this city could be over come. The action of Colonel Clowry Is the result
 District Attorney Jerome began today an inquiry in the pool room news mat ter. He had before him Capt. F. Norton Goddard. of the anti-policy society, Su- perintendent Burke of the same society, and a man named Jones. Burke and Jones, is Is stated. told of arrangements made by which racing wire was to be placed in Burkes house.
 Commissioner McAdoo, of the Police Department. when told about Colonel Clowry's statement, said:
 "If the Western Union Telegraph Com pany has cut off, not only the direct wires leading from the central office to the pool rooms. but connections from the exchanges with which they have been under contract and which in turn re- tailed the news to pool rooms for gamb- ling purposes. then this vice has received a most damaging blow. and if 1t sur wives at all. 1t will have to do so under other forms and devices. If the infor- nation is correct. no one will be more gratifed than myself, both personally and officially. I am especially pleased, as it anticipates a reply to the resolution passed by the Executive Committee Of the Western Union Company. which was this day about to mail to President Clowry."
 The Commissioner said then that this was a more radical act than he had dared to hope for,

but there has been no disposition to aci hastily. The Emperor's advisors could not forget that while zassaiitch did not carry out the plan of operation which had been previously determined on. he had displayed q stubborn resist ance which showed to the enemy and to the world that the Russians had mol lost the courageous spirit of the past generations
 What will become of Zassalitch whether he will remain in the Fai East, or be assigned to less import ant region. cannot be learned tonight but 1t is emphatically stated that there is no intention to disgrace him. ant that if he returns from the Far East 1t will be on sick leave. and at his owr request.

LINE NEARING MUKDEN.
Japanese Almost Within Striking DIs-
 tamce of the Rmssfana.

tamce of the RmssianH.
 MuiSden, May 16.--The fighting line is steadily nearing Mukden, where Vice. roy Aiexieffs headquarters still remain. Little reliable Information can be obtain ed by the newspaper correspondents, who are forbidden to proceed to the scenes of operation. and official information Is withheld until advices are sent to St. Petersburg. It is now known. however, that the Japanese are almost within striking distance of the Russians, and that the forces protecting Liao Yang are stretching eastward, from the railroad nicng the Mao Tien mountain range.
 The Japanese are advancing in three e01nns.s and are now parth of Siayen and lfeng Wang Cheng Two columns are reported to be working further to the northward with the object of turning the Russian position and advancing upon Mukden.
 Numerous small engagements have been fought. but no decisive action has taken place.
 Port. Arthur Is now completely isolated bv the Japanese expedition at Polandien.
 The Japanese are now operating in a rugged country, well suited to the Rus sian defense, but north of IAao Yang to Mukden, the country Is a flat plain, in- tersected by rivers. The weather recent ly has been hot and dry, but the rain which has fallen in the past two days has made the roads almost impossible for vehicles and when the rainy season be- gins, at the end of June, this plain will be converted Into morass. This con- dltion will probably result in the practi- cal suspension of operations.
 Mukden is now the receiving center of tho wounded from the various engage ments south of Mao Tien mountains. A hospital has been established In the Lama Temple in the outskirts of the town and field hospital has been located in a wood near the military camp around the station.
 significant feature of the situation is the demeanor of the Chinese population, which may be said to be a barometer of the military weather. A close observer of the expressions and general attitude of the Chinese can tell how the fighting a hundred miles away is turning. They have rapid and mysterious channels of information through which the result of the battle at Feng Chang spread and could be suspected from the outward manner of the Chinese before the Rus sians made 1t known here. The cutting off of Port Arthur is another instance in point.
 The newspaper correspondents are most courteously treated by Colonel Poestieh. the officer whom Viceroy Alexieff ap- pointed to attend them, but they are chaf- ing under the restrictions imposed here which prevent them from seeing any thing of the fighting. General Kuropat- kin is evidently unwilling that the for eign correspondents shall witness the present phase of operations. though he may accept them in the definite future when the Russians are able to make a sweeping advance.
