PORT ARTHUR NEXT.
THE JAPANESE WILL SOON
ATTACK THE PLACE
By Land and Sea: Prepared to
Lose Two Thousand Men in
the Attack: RumorS of
Fight at Lao Yang.

st. Petersburg, May 16.-The Jap
anese evidently are determined that
there shall not be any further rail
communication between General Ku-
ropatkin and Port Arthur. Official
advices received to-day by the gen
eral staff say the japanese have de-
stroyed fifty miles of the railroad
north of Kin-Chou. No resistance
was made by the Russians, who are
gradually abandoning it. On the
Japanese approach Colonel Spiridorf,
of the Amur railroad battalion, is
seeking to render the railroad as USE
less as possible to the enemy by re-
moving the switches and otherwise
disabling the road.
Cheefo, May 16.--A combined
land and sea attack on Port Arthur
is expected to take place between
May 20 and 23rd.
The japanese hope to occupy Port
Dalny within few days. Dalny is
not fortified, the only fort in the
vicinity being one midway between
Talien-Wan and Kin-Chou. After
the destruction Of the submarine
mines at Talien-wan the Japanese
intend to land additional troops
there and commence an attack on
Port Arthur.
A Japanese officer informed the
correspondent of the Associated Press
that the japanese are ready to lose
two thousand men in the attack.
This he did not consider to be a
large number in view Of the great
percentage of sick and wounded who
will be able to re-take the field as a
result of modern hospital equipment.
Well informed Chinese say that
the entrance to Port Arthur is not
blocked.
There is an uncOnfirmed native
rumor that heavy fighting took
place in the direction of Liao Yang
yesterday. The reports of big guns
were family heard eastof Niuchwang
at O'Clock this morning.
The Russians now admit that the
railroad is practically closed to Port
Arthur. Nothing has been heard
from there by wire for three days,
and six days mail consigned to points
south of Hsiu Yen was returned this
afternoon. The furniture of admin
istration buildings has been taken
away.

RUSSIANS DESTROY THEIR
SHIPS AT PORT ARTHUR,
This and Other Reports Pounds

Meagre News ObtainabIe
From Amy Source.

Chefoo, May 11.-An unofficial
japanese dispatch has been received
here to the effect that the Russians
have destroyed their fleet in Port
Arthur.
Toxic, May 11.-Admiral Togo
reports that since the 9th of May
many explosions have been heard
coming from the vicinity of Port
Arthur, but their cause has not been
ascertained. The impression here is
that the Russians, despairing of their
ability to defend the port, are de-
stroying their ships before evacuat-
ing the place.
ST. Petersburg, May 11.-General
Kuropatkin has telegraphed to the
Emperor that a train loaded with
war material from Liao Yang has
arrived at Port Arthur.
A dispatch from Paris holds out
the opinion that the Japanese are
allowing the railroad to remain open
in order to allow women and chill
dren and non-combatants to leave
Port Arthur. kilograms have been
received from st. Petersburg report
ing that great battle has been
fought in the Motin Pass, which re-
suited in a Russian disaster, involv-
ing heavy loss in men. General
Sassulitch is said to have been killed
in the fight.
The press dispatches to-day FROM
all sources bear evidence of strict
censorship, and no definite news Is
obtainable, but important develop
ment5 are thought to be occurring In
and around Port Arthur, of which
the public will soon know.

FLEECED BY strangers.
MIR. LEWIS COBB, FROM THE
GRANTHAM SECTION.
Walks Into a Trap and is Re-
IeVed of One Hundred Dol
lars While He is Evident
ly "Sleeping.'

The old adage that people olive
s,nd learn" is very applicable to Mr..
Lewis Cobb, of Grantham township,
who came to the city Friday to
visit the Carnival.
While sauntering down the street
in the morning he was approached
by a stranger who made a glowing
proposition to advertise certain
brand of cigars Mr.. Cobb, who is
farmer and is at all times looking
out for an opportunity to advance his
financial interests, was much i'm
pressed with the inducements which
he had been offered and willingly
followed the man to his room at
the Perkins boarding house.
When he rea he'd the room the
stranger introduced a little game,
which he said was worked in con-
nection with the cigar business. The
stranger also stated that Mr.. Cobb
would have to show $1OO in money
as an evidence of good faith, as his
company did not employ people who
had no means. Mr.. Cobb did not
have the money, but he stepped out
and borrowed it from his merchant
and returned with the money in his
hand. He found another man in
the room who pretended to be max
ing application for the same position
IN different territory.
The game of knocking down the
pins began and Mr.. Cobb protested,
saying at the same time that it
looked like gambling. He was told
that it was one of the features which
the cigar company had adopted to
advance the interests of their sales
men and that 500 would get him
$4OO.
Mr.. Cobb put up his 800 and the
money was taken in charge by one
of the strangers. He was then told
that he would have to show 5000
more. Mr.. Cobb did not have the
money, and one of the strangers
proposed to get the money from his
(the stranger's) father, who was said
to be on the Carnival grounds. The
couple went to the grounds and the
stranger went into tent to get the
money from his father and has not
been seen since, neither has Mr..
Cobb regained his 800.
Mr.. Cobb informed the police of
the transaction and a search was
made. 1t was learned, when it was
too late, that the two went to Selma
and from there went north on the
Atlantic Coast Line train.

Leading GOldsbOrO Druggists
Urge You to Try HyOmei, the
Guaranteed Cure For
CatarI.Il.

Any reader of the ARGUS who
suffers with catarrh, or who is subs
ject to catarrhal colds, is invited to
J. III. Hill & Sons store for a COM
plete Hyomei outfit on approval. So
confident are they that Hyomei will
cure the worst and most deep-seated
case of catarrh that they will fur
nish months treatment of Hyomei
on trial.
While it would be unreasonable to
expect a chronic case Of catarrh,
which bas been growing worse for
years, could be cured within a month,
yet they feel sure that the thirty
days treatment will convince the
user that Hyomei is infallible in
driving catarrhal poison from the
system. There is no dangerous
stomach drugging when Hyomei is
used. Simply breathe its healing
baIsams through the neat inhaler
that comes with every outfit, and
the germ-killing and health-giving
air will penetrate to the most remote
cells in the air passages of the head,
throat and lungs, and drive catarrhal
poison from the system. Nothing
else will so quickly cure cold in the
head or stop and ordinary cough.
Singers and public speakers will
find Hyomei invaluable. It strength
ems the voice and gives it a rich, clear
! tone. Catarrhal deafness is cured
when Hyomei and the special Hy-
ymei balm are u-ed.
The complete outfit costs only one
dollar, and if, alter using, you can
say that it did not help you J. III.
| Hill & Son will return your money.

ton With Port Arthur is
Again Cut Off.

Toxic, May 13.-The japanese
torpedo boat No. 48 was destroyed
while removing mines from Kerr
Bay, north of Tallenwan port Dalny)
yesterday. Seven men were killed
and seven were wounded. This is
the first warship Japan has lost in
the war.
The torpedo boat was lost during
q series of bombardments and sur
veying operations at Talienwan,

kataoka, commander of the third
squadron The admiral arrived at
Kerr Bay early Thursday morning
and detached the cruisers Iteuku-
shima, Nishin and Miyako, order
ing them to lombard the land bat
teries while a fotilla of torpedo
boats swept the harbor for mines.
A second fotilla of torpedo boats,
which had been engaged in guard
ing Port Arthur the previous night,
joined the squadron and began the
work of surveying the harbor The
Kiyako discovered a company Of
Russian infantry and a detachment
of cavalry on shore and dispersed
them.
The survey was completed at 3
O'Clock in the afternoon.
Two torpedo boats that were re-
connoitering and removing mines in
the west shore Of Kerr Bay, discov-
cred telegraph line running along
the Taku-Shan peninsula. In order
to destroy it Lieutenant Hotta and
four sailors landed and scaled the
heights under the protection of the
guns of the torpedo boats and cut the
line. The japanese vessels then
discovered three bodies of Russian
troops, one large and two small
ones, whereupon the squadron ad-
vanced close to the shore and shelled
them.
The Miyako, which was recon-
noitering in Deep Bay discovered
Russian guard post on a mountain to
the northwest of Robinson promon-
tory and destroyed it. A Russian
| force, estimated at ten companies,
took refuge behind an eminence, but
it was dispersed by the japanese.
Torpedo boats Nos. 48 and 40, dis
covered large mechanical mine in
Kerr Bay. Their various attempts
to blow it up failed and it suddenly
exploded of itself, cutting torpedo
boat No. 48 in two, and the boat sank
| in seven minutes. The squadron

up the wounded. Three other mines
were discovered and exploded. The
squadron completed its operations at
six o'clock in the evening and re-
turned ia it's base.

Keep the Balance Up.

It has been truthfully said that
any disturbance Of the even balance
of health causes serious trouble. No
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to
lose appetite, or to get tired easily,
the least imprudence brings ON sick
ness, weakness, or debility. The
system needs tonic, Graves it, and
should not be denied it; and the best
tonic of which we have any know
ledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla. What
this medicine has done in keeping
healthy people healthy, in keeping
up THE even balance Of health, gives
IL The same oistinction as a peeven-
tive that it enj 1ys as a care. Its
early use has illustrated the wisdom
of the old saying that a stitch in
time save nine. Take Hoods fer
appetite, strength, and endurance.
