Not much importance is attached here to the bombardnent on account of the great distance of the enemy from the batteries. Their cruisers took refuge behind the Lao Tishin promontory. fearing to expose themselves to the di- rect fire of the forts.
 The removal of the battleship Retvi- gan from the mouth of the inner harbor. which marked the assumption of com mand by Admiral Makaroff, will permit the free exit of the heavy armored ships. It had been believed that the reason why the Russian ships had not made a sortie before was the apprehen- sion O. meeting with a superior force, but 1t is now clear that the ships were unable to leave. With the channel open it is expected that Admiral Makarof with make the squadron an aggressive force.
 Appreciating the misfortune of the di- vision os the fleet before the war, it is believed that Admiral Makaroff will att tempt to unite his forces by bringing the Vladivostok squadron to Port Ar thur.
 Repairs on the Retvizan will be com pleted in a few weeks, but the battle i ship Crazevitch is so badly damaged that i. is not thought that she can participate in any of the operations for long time.
 | No unofficial reports >of the recent | fight have been received up to this hour. St Petersburg, March 12.-A special despatch received here from Port Ar thur says:
 Port Arthur was invested by sea on this day March 10, and the day must undoubtedly be regarded as most mem orable
 ''The Japanese displayed an especially noteworthy determination in keeping 1 up the bombardment of our forts from 10 a. m. until 1 p. m. The town suffered very little damage.
 'The enemy's ships. in great force, formed into three divisions, among which were distributed nine armored ships. Each division was accompanied l by fiotilla of torpedo boats.
 Long intervals elapsed between the firing by the Russian batteries, which Indicated that the guns were discharged only when there was a reasonable cer- tainty that the shells would reach the targets. The Russians did not fire one tenth as many shells as did the Japan ese. There was no panic or excitement among the civilians of Port Arthur and the troops kept cool

A Russia Boast.

Paris, March 12.-The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Echo de Paris has had a conversation with an aide de camp who is to accompany General KuroDatkin to the Far East. This of ficer said that the generals head
 quarters would be established provis- ionally at Liao Yang, but he did not re- veal the movements of the Russian troops. He said that members of the
 press would have every facility to tele-
 graph news. The first act of General
 KuroDatkin will be to recall the Rus sian troops from Corea. He. expects the Russian Baltic squadron to join the Pa | cific fleet by the end of July and he ex- poets to use this combined fleet during the month of August.
 The correspondent quotes General Kuropatkin as follows:
 T know I am iInpetuous. but will not sacrifice the life of single man
 uselessly. We will operate in masses. In order to teach the Japanese a lesson we will walk through their islands af- ter crushing them in Manchuria and Corea. If I have voice in the matter the treaty of peace will be signed in Tokio and not elsewhere
 A high parsonage with whom the cor respondent of the Echo de Paris spoke, but whose name is not given, said that lif he was consulted he would suggest that Corea remain under it's puppet of
 an emperor" that that Russian suzer- ainty should be absolute In return for |certain concessions, this person said, we allowed Japan to occupy Corea; after our victory Corea will be lost to Japan forever.

 "A correspondent at Chefoo of the Daily Mail gives alleged information of the Japanese landing movements up to March g and says that disembarkation is proceeding at Chemulpo and points Ii the northwest with marvellous rapid ity. During the last ten days sixteen transports have landed 10000 men at a town the Japanese call Kaishoe (prob- ably HWang Ju, 94 miles northwest of Chemulpo, on the Tai Dong riverl, twelve miles by sea from Chemulpo. Cabling from Yin Row, the corre- spondent of the Daily Mail says the British and American gunboats at New ChWsng have received orders to leave immediately the river opens. At Liao Yang there are now twelve thousand troops working night and day on the Qualifications. A great fortified camp is being formed south of the town. It ex- tends three miles in every direction. The Russian force on the Yalu river now amounts to 20000 men.

Hidden In Sight.

Hidden In Sight.
A new form Of "hide and seek, !"
which is ''hidden In sight," is very
pretty game. All must go out of the
room except one, who then places the
things to be found. such as thimble
or a cotton reel, SO that any one can
see 1t, but will not notice it without
looking rather hard A thimble is not
easily seen on a bright iron fender,
and a reel of cotton takes good deal
of finding when properly placed on
some mantel-piece ornament, or even
on the top of picture frame.
Here is another secret: Tell the
seekers that they must find hand
kerchief. Tie it round the handle of
the door Gf it is white one); show
the seekers politely in, and shut the
door after them, SO that they do not
touch the handle. They will take a
long time to find the handkerchief. 1t
is strict rule Of the game that the
first finder Of an object does not make
known his discovery. He just sits
down. One by one the seekers sit
down, until only one remains stand
ing, and then it Is time for some one
to tell him and for the party to get to
another game.

KING BORROWED HIS COAT.

Victor Emmanuel Has Nothing Suit
able to Wear at Russia's Court.
Although Victor Emmanuel III is the
first monarch of United Italy to visit
Petersburg, he was well known there
as crown prince. His grandfather, the
other Victor Emmanuel, was equally
well known, but through the Russian
royalties coming to Italy. There is
one characteristic anecdote told of him
not generally known. The king was
very stout, loved his comfort and ease,
and would always prefer to wear q
shooting coat rather than q uniform.
In 1873 the then empress of Russia,
Marie Alexandrovna, visited the eternal
city with her daughter Marie. later the
duchess of Edinburg, putting up at the
Russian embassy in the Corso, where
they were treated with every courtesy
by the court. One evening Victor
Emmanuel went to the theater, abso-
lutely alone, in neglige jacket. In the
middle of the first act what was his
horror to see the empress and her
daughter enter an adjacent box. He
could not slip away because they had
seen him, and it seemed equally inn
possible to go to them in that costume.
Suddenly the king had an inspiration
and, calling Senator Gadda, prefect Of
Rome, also present, ordered him to take
off his dress coat and give it to him.
This the surprised senator did, even
helping the king to put it on, but Vic
tor Emmanuels shoulders were extra
ordinarily broad and no sooner had he
forced himself into the coat than the
| seam gave way from neck to waist, and
affairs were as before. The king was
obliged to~join the empress and her
daughter in his jacket, but, never want
| ing in aplomb, he made such good ex-
cuses that the express enjoyed the in
cident thoroughly. A couple of days
later Senator Gadda received a new
| dress suit from the royal tailor with a
pin in brilliants pinned to one OF the
lapels.-Pal Mall Gazette. y.

Rheumatism in Utah.

Frisco, Utah, May 2nd.-Thers is
great deal of rheumatism in this and
neighboring states and this painful dis
ease has crippled many strong man
and woman among an otherwise healthy
people.
Recently, however, there has been in
troduced into Utah remedy for Rheu-
matism which bids fair to stamp out
this awfully painful complaint. The
name of this new remedy is Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and it has already
wrought some wonderful cures. Right
here in Frisco there is case of Mr..
Grace who had Rheumatism 30 bad in
his feet that he could hardly walk.
He tried many remedies in vain but
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured him.
His wife says:-"We both had Kid
ney Trouble and my husband had the
Rheumatism SO bad that he could hard
ly walk. We used Dodd's Kidney Pills
with much benefit. We have tried
many remedies, but none have done US
so much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills."
Similar reports come from all over
the state and it would seem as if Rheu-
matism had at last been conquered.
