A Pertinent Criticism.

Col. Thomas Wentworth Higginson.
in discussing one of the many reverses
of the Russian arms, according to the
New York Tribune, said the other day:
'It seems that the criticism most
would be one of the sort that du Ter

''Vivonne, you will remember. after
some reverses, wrote to the King:
We want only 10000 men to fin

''He gave the letter to du Terror to

wrote in, after 10000 men, the words

Order That Didn't Affect Gen. Chat

It is not known whether it is a joke
on Lieut.. Gen. Chaffee or not, says
the Washington Star. While he was
in the Far West this summer, inspect
ing army posts. the order issued dur
ing the Spanish War. requiring officers
on duty in the War Department to wear
their uniforms during office hours, was
rescinded, and since then the wear
ing of uniforms at the War Department
has been abandoned.
That is, it has with, one important
exception. The exception is Gen. Chat

who appears at his desk every day in
his military attire, including ths three
stars on each shoulder, indicating his
rank. Either he does not know of
the latest order on the subject or he
does not care. Naturally, none. of his
subordinates feel called on to suggest
a change, so that Gen. ChaffeeA con-

There's never cheer or a whistle

Gen. Kuropatkin's advance south
ward from Mukden seems not to have
been attended with the success that
he anticipated when he addressed his
army and advised officers and men
that they were then strong enough to
take the offensive and win. The fight
near Yentai has been going on for
more than three days and is said TO
have been even bloodier than the fight
ing around Lao Yang. But as to the
outcome nothing positive has yet been
made public. There Is very little
information from st. Petersburg and
spirit of gloom seems to hang over
that capital. A. Toxic there is a
much better and brighter feeling. as II
success had crowned the efforts Of the
Japanese army. Indeed. Il would not
be surprising to hear that Japan had
won again. though later reports In con-

The campaign prevaricator is busy
these DAYS. One Of his latest yarns is
to the effect that Judge Parker refused
to resign his judgeship in the New
York Court Of Appeals until he had
been assured Of a good position and
income in the event of his defeat at
the polls. The story goes on to say
that David b. Hill and William f.
Sheehan assured Judge Parker that
they would form a law partnership
with him, and that the firm would
guarantee him an income of $4,000 a
year. 1t is further stated that August
Belmont promised that the new law
firm should be attorneys for his great
railway interests. 1t will be difficult
to get anybody outside Of dyed-in-the-
wool Republican ranks to believe any
such story nd 1t is mentioned merely
for the purpose of showing how des-
perately hard-up the Republicans are
for campaign material.

A letter from that astute old Celes-
tial, Ii Hung Chang, has been I'M
earthed in which he wrote, in 1901, adj
vising the Dowager Empress of China
to accede to the demand Of Russia
that she be permitted to occupy Man
churia. Old Ii expressed the opinion
that, with Russia in Manchuria, it
would be only a short time before
trouble would break out between Rus
STA and Japan; then China could bide
her time and take sides with the win
ming party. Should Russia win, it
would be easy to persuade her to take
Korea and return Manchuria to China
in recognition of Chinese loyalty and
assistance, while if Japan were to win
an alliance could be formed with the
Japanese for chasing the Russians out
OF the country. Ii was a typical ORR
entail diplomat. He knew that his own
country was too weak to do any fight
ing of account, but he wanted to see
her placed in a position to make a
good bargain with the other fellows
after they had finished the fighting.

Gen. Chaffee, who is chief of the Cen

Stick, otherwise the President, and he

of their preference to live near each

intermarry or socially mingle. Two
seminaries and an orphan asylum are
attended by fullbloods and mixed

negroes only.
In the Incorporated school districts
whites and Indians attend the same

feeling on either side are being lost in
fellowship and friendship cultivated in
the class room and on the playground.
Both sides are better satisfied in the

A Scholars Advice.

The German historian, Professor
Theodor Mommsen, was noted for the
facility with which he acquired lam
guages. The tongues of modern Eu-
rope as well as the classics were to him
not studies, but the familiar tools of
his deadly work.
An American reporter who was in
terviewing him a few years ago asked
to have a certain reference put into
English, as he did not read German
well.
mot read German well? And you a
journalist" exclaimed the savant. II
do not see how it is possible. Young
man, German is one Of the four neces-
stiles for a student. The other three
are English, French and Italian. With
out them you can never know the ten
dency of modern thought. If you have
them not, do not rest until you have

Mr., Albee's Opinion.

Alpine, CAL, June 6.-Mr. T. M. AL
bee, our postmaster has expressed an
opinion based on his own experience
which will no doubt be of interest to
many. Mr.. Albee is a man of few
words, but his we'll known truthful
ness and uprightness of character adds
much weight to any statement he
makes. He says:
''The first box of Dodd's Kidney Pills
that used convinced me of their good
qualities and I used altogether four
boxes with the very best results. I can
heartily recommend this remedy"
This voluntary expression of opinion
will doubtless find an echo in many
homes in Califronia for Dodd's Kidney
Pills have been making some miracu-
lous cures in this state.
From the evidence already published
1t seems safe to conclude that this med
icine will be found to be a perfect cure
for Rheumatism, Urinary trouble,
Backache and any and every form or
symptom of Kidney Complaint.

DIES At HIS POST.

CHARACTERIZATION of the Russian Soldier
as Given by a Muscovite.
Sincere and unaffected love for his
monarch. profound religious piety in
timately united with the idea of the
Gear and Of the fatherland, attach
ment to the fatherland, unlimited con-
fidence in his chiefs, strong esprit de
corps, and faculty Of enduring gayly
and naturally the greatest privations
such are the most marked character
istics Of the Russian soldier, writes a
Russian general.
To these traits must be added re-
markable bravery and rare contempt
of death, combined with naive kind
heartedness and a gentle and indul-
gent disposition. The Russian soldier
is distinguished by a good humor that
never abandons him, even in the most
difficult moments, by his brotherly un-
derstanding with his comrades, and by
his gay and contented way Of facing
all the DEGREES Of fate.
Obedience is SO deeply rooted in the
mind Of the Russian soldier that dur
ing my thirty yers' experience Of the
army do not remember to have wit
messed one single case of insubordina-
ton, either in times of peace or in
times of war.
The Russian soldier dies at his post
I have seen him in winter on sentry
duty on the heights of Shipka die
standing, surrounded with snow and
transformed literally into statue Of
Ice; have seen him die on the march,
striding over the sandy desert and
yielding up his last breath with his
last step; I have seen him die of his
wounds on the battlefield or in the
hospital, at distance of 5000 miles
from his native village-and in those
supreme moments 1 have always found
the Russian soldier sublime.
Although child Of the plain, where
his eye rarely describes the most mod
est hill, we see him boldly scale the
topmost SUBMITS of the Caucasus and
climb the rocks and glaciers of the
Thian-Shan, fighting all the time. He
feels at home everywhere, whether in
the steppes Of the fatherland, in the
tundras of Siberia, or the mountains
and deserts of Central Asia He has
an exceptional faculty of putting him
self at his ease wherever he may be,
even in places where others would die
Of hunger and thirst.
have seen the Russian soldier at
home in time of peace. or during
truces in the enemy's country. rocking
the peasants child in the village,
where he was stationed: 1 have seen
him bivouacking in the desert, with
his tongue parched and burning, re-
ceive his rations of a quarter litre Of
salt water; have seen him in heat and
in cold, in hunger and in thirst, in
peace and in war-and I have always
found in him the same desire to oblige,
the same abnegation of self for the
safety and good Of others.
These special characteristics Of the
Russian soldier-his self denial, his
simple and natural self-sacrifice-
him peculiar powers as a warrior.
