OAKyILLE HAPPENINGS

During the thunder storm last even. ing, between and z o'clock. the light. ming entered Eugene Mains house on Wood street, and, fortunately, did not do more than give the inmates a ter rifle fright. Judging from the traces of this dreadful agent it must have struck few yards from the front Of the house and then penetrated into the building, for here the ground was fur rowed and the doorstep showed marks of its passage. It went through their bedroom on the ground floor. ripping the carpets and splintering one of the bedposts, and then made way for the cellar, where no further trace of it could be seen. The family was at sup, per in an adjacent room and the tre- mendous noise resounded in their ears for a long time afterwards. The lamp on the table was blown out The dam age done was trff1ing.
 Saverio Gigliotti of Waterbury has rented the small building near the trol- ley terminus belonging to Mrs Kate Babin, and will open fruit store there in few days.

WHERE THE RUSSIANS ARE.
Oyama Reports Disposition of Troop
 AbOut MukNen.

OyamR Reports DispO@itiOn of Troops
 About Mulxden.
 TOKYO, Sept. 13.--A telegram re- ceived here from Field Marshal Oyama gives the disposition of the Russian troops in the vicinity of Yentai and Mukden. He says that a large force of Russian cavalry is posted at Pingtai- tsze, which Is about twenty-four miles to the east of the Yentai railway sta- tion, and that another force of cavalry occupies the town of Heilingchai, to the northward of Pingtaitsze. Other bodies of cavalry, with artillery, are located at Huangshanlin, on the east ern road out of Mukden, as we'll as in the neighborhood of Yumantzsushan, which is occupied by the Japanese. Some detachments of Russian cavalry are posted at Fanchi, Kushutui and Menhukutun. along the railroad be- tween Yentai and Mukden, and are ap- parently keeping in touch with and watching the Japanese.
 Another report received from the headquarters of the Manchurian ar mics tells of the pitiable condition of noncombatants in Liaoyang. 1t relates that while the Russians were holding the defense works close to the walls of Liaoyang they prohibited the removal of noncombatants from the city, and consequently many were killed or wounded. Dr. A M. Westwater, a well known British medical mission ary of Liaoyang, is at present shelter ing 200 wounded noncombatants and feeding and nursing many more. Con- cluding, the report says:f
 "The condition of these people is be- yond description, and 1t Is awful to see the results of this Russian inhumanity. The killed and wounded were of course hit by our fire, but the Russians were responsible. It is great pity to ex- tend the calamities to noncombatants." '"
 An additional reportl from the army headquarters concerning dumdum bull lets says:
 Among the Russian munitions cap tured at Liaoyang are two kinds of dumdum bullets which very much re- semble those made for the Russian ri- fe of the 1891 type. They do not, how ever, fit this rife exactly. We made search for rifles which could have fired these bullets, but failed to find them.
 "The wounds received by some of our men are comparatively large, and it seems likely that they were made by dumdum bullets. We have, however, been unable to ascertain this definite ly."

Queer Work of Lightning.

When the lightning entered the apartments of Ethel spooner the other day at Harrisyille, R. l., bird cage which was hanging near the window came in for share of attention. The hook and chain by which the cage was suspended were thrown the width of two rooms, the spring had disappeared, probably being melted by the bolt. and the cage itself was blackened and thrown to the floor. The peculiar part of this incident is that the canary that occupied the cage is still as lively as ever.

JAPANESE PROTEST.
United States Asked to Make

INVESTIGATION IS IN PROGRESS
Inspectors Ordered to See if Russian TransDora Really Needs Repairs. Washington Awaits Report Be-
 fore Answerin Jap Demand.


 Washington Awaits Report Be-
 fore Answering Jap Demand.
 WASHINGTON, Sept 13.-The ex- pected protest of Japan against allow ing the Russian auxiliary cruiser Lena, which arrived at San Francisco yester- day, to remain longer than twenty-four hours came today when the Japanese consul in that city. through the col lector of customs, made formal demand that the vessel be required to leave at the end of that time.
 The collectors telegram officially no tifying the authorities of the arrival ot the Lena and of Japan's protest was addressed to the secretary of the treas. ury, who at once sent copies to Acting Secretary of State Adee and Acting Secretary Murray of the department of commerce and labor, who has di- rect Jurisdiction in the matter. The telegram reads as follows:
 Japanese consul has made demand upon me that Russian auxiliary cruiser Lena, arriving at this port 11th inst, leave within twenty-four hours. The captain reports that he has enter ed for repairs of engines and boilers, principally the latter. am request ing the inspector of bulls and boilers to make an examination of vessels ma chinery with the consent of the Rus sian consul and the commander of the Lena. Gan find no authority in the law or regulations for the collector assum, ing any authority in the premises, and request iAstructions.'
 After conference with the com missioner of navigation Acting Secre- tary Murray sent the following dis patch to the collector:
 "Your telegram addressed to secre- tary treasury concerning Russian steamship Lena arrived at 4:40 p. m.
 Wire this department hour of steamers arrival at your port and con else resume of steamboat inspector s report and if repairs are necessary the probable time required to complete them. On receipt of particulars the de partment will instruct you further"
 The collectors telegram came after office hours, and the officials were somewhat puzzled that there should have been so much delay in sending it There was a good deal of reticence on the subject on the part of the officials of the department of commerce and la Dor and of the bureau of navigation.

More stoical Than Red Indians.

No Hed Indians were ever more callous to pain than the aborigines of Australia Tn their tribal fights, which still occur frequently, the severest wounds are treated with indifference. Old Aaastra1- ian settlers are fond of telling fa- nous story of a tribal chief who walked 60 miles with spear sticking clear through his body before he could get help to pull it out. They insist that the story is true.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
AND THE PRiNT-PAPER TRUST

/ Philander c. Knox, who is attorney
general OF the United States, has
promised to look into the paper trust,
although he has done nothing so far
that would indicate that he intends
to break his word about running
amueK" against such things. Charges
have been submitted to him by the
American Newspaper Publishers as
sociation against the combination
known as the print-paper trust, and
the charges indicate that the publish
ers know exactly wlat they want
The Publishers have no particular
desire to bust" this trust for the sake
OF making a spectacular political play
There is a certain distinction between
manufacturing trusts, sometimes call
ed combines. which get together for
the purpose of producing commod.
ity; and the kind Of concerns which
are planned for the purpose Of re-
straining interstate commerce. and
under the recent rulings OF the SUI
preme court it is difficult to see what
excuse there is for not proceeding
against this latter variety as soon as
their existence is established. The
American Newspaper Publishers as
sociation charges that the paper trust
is one Of the sort which has for It's
purpose the restraint OF trade betweeh
the states; that the various manufact.
urers divide the territory between
them, adjust the supply OF their pro
duet, restrict consumption, thereby be
ing anle to control prices and dictate
terms to publishers, and that The
trust also threatens 20 boycott those
papers which manifest a disposition
not to stand for the thing.
MT Knox has not gotten around to
the matter OF attending TO the charges
made yet He may wait a while long
er and decide that it is one OF those
matters (which it is not compatible
with the public interest" to ipvesti-
