The October Just Past Was the Best
Since 1889.

In building way the month just past
was the biggest October in fifteen years,
or since the artificial boom days of 1889.
There have been more permits taken out
in corresponding months but their aggre-
gate value has not been SO high. There
were issued in the month 1913 permits for
buildings valued at $685. 1876. A year ago,
the month showed 4O7 permits with a total

We could hear the cannon all day

There were four hundred Japs killed
and wounded, while the Russians lost
more than that. The sympathy for
the Japs is great here The Chinese
and..Great Britain are with Japan. The
Germans and French with Russia. The
American soldiers and the German SOL
diers had a fight the other night, in
which the Germans cut some of our

You see all the other nations are al
lowed to carry swords and bayonets
when not on duty out in town. The
Americans are not allowed to carry
anything when not on duty, and only
a six shooter when on duty. So you
see we have no show Our Minister
raised trouble about it, and said if the
other nations did not stop their men
from carrying weapons when not on
duty. he would let the Americans carry
their guns when not on duty. So we
think they will stop. Our captain g
