will be interested to note the pluckv
battle that a pretty young woman of

who possess a desire for decency and
uphold the rights of privacy will be
pleased to learn that the printed re-

has no legal remedy in the matter are
without foundation. May victory be the
result of the battle.

waiting game. His idea Of success in

thing to gain, while the japanese have
everything to lose by delay. The longer
the clash of arms is averted the better
the Russians will be prepared in the
way of men, supplies and munitions.
