Clenwood's the Biggest Value

Every stove dealer will tell you he has the best range for the money. But leave it to the Judgment of the people you know. Ask almost any houskeep- CT what range she would buy If sha was going to get q new one The chances are that she has Glenwood now and of course she wouldn't change. If she hasn't a Glenwood she is waiting for the time to come when she can have one, having always heard so much praise for 1t and no critI cisms. The Hampson-sellew Go are. selling Glenwoods at a little less in price than in almost every other city in New England.

DID NOT R EsPoND

AIukden, Oct 21 q .. m.) Towards evening yesterday the fog lifted ana some Of the Russian guns at various points opened fire against the Japan csc defenses, but they did not respond either from scarcity of ammunition or the desire not to reveal the location of their batteries. The weather and the condition of the roads have made ex- tensive operations Impossible, but the roads are now drying hard, which fore casts events in the near future. The war correspondents in the field are kept in the dark and it is difficult to say when and how this dreadful slaughter will end.

THE STORM HERE.

A fierce wind and rain storm came up between 4 and o'clock this morn ing and continued with slight interrup- tions until noon. Several trees were blown down and considerable damage done to wires and other property. The huge elm tree on Grand street, oppo- site the new postoffice, not the mon- ster in B1akeslee square, was laid low, and another monarch was put out of business on Cherry street, at the resi- dence of Theron Minor. The demo- cratic banner, containing handsome pictures of the next president and vice Dresident, was tossed about like cork in a turbulent sea, but finally found a place of rest on the network of wires nearby. It Is slightly damaged, but not enough to say so. The slaughter of umbrellas was frightful, and while dealers didn't like to see folks get soaked they must have smiled every time they saw a fellow throw the rem nants of his umbrella aside and turn dn to purchase a. new one. More un1r brellas left home in good condition to- day and never returned than would fill hay wagon and people considered themselves lucky to be able to main- tain an upright position themselves and at the same time hold onto thear hats. The rain fell in torrents and the wind forced itself against people with such force that one was soaked before he knew it. The precipitation as rneasured by MT Welton up to o'clock amounted to 1.73, About 2 o'clock the storm ceased and the sun came forth In all its splendor and ev- erybody was happy,

ARMIES FACE TO FACE.
Artillery Firing Followed Rising of Fog Yesterday Bombardment of Port Arthur Going
 for Four Days.

St Petersburg, Oct 21 l1:42 D. m.) .)-~ The two armies face each other across the Shakhe river, but operations con- tinue at standstill. The heavy fog which hung over the plain was burned up by the sun yesterday afternoon and there was some desultory artillery firing from some of the Russian bat. teries. but nothing important. One ot the Associated Press correspondents says the Japanese did not reply, indi- eating possible shortage of ammuni, ton or desire to conceal the location of their guns.
 The war office has no fresh news this morning, excepting a list of the losses of General Ekks's seventy-first division of the Fifth, Siberian corps and General Morazoff's first division of Lieutenant-G General Dembowski' $ corps. Each lost half dozen officers, The official lists of officers killed and wounded between October II and Oc- tober 13 totals 172, including Major General Rabinski and seventeen field officers killed. The wounded are in the proportion of one to six. The list for the heaviest days lighting is stih unreported and doubtless will exceed the losses at Liaoyang when 500 off, cers were killed or wounded. The loss es among the men are not yet reported, but they are thought to approximate not much over 10000.
 News from Port Arthur brought to ChefOo by junk which left there Oc- tober 10 says a fierce bombardment which began October 16 was still pro- gressing without Interruption. Many buildings had been damaged and ships in the harbor had also been hit by shells, but the character and extent Of the damages are not stated. The Jap anese main forces are now posted ay Liudziatung. They have placed guns of large calibre on Iunjida mountain. The Russians continue making sortieA successfully and inficting heavy loss- es on the besiegers, whose losses since the commencement of tle siege are said to have been 50,O00.
 EVERY MAN WOUNDED.
 Mukden, Oct 21.- -Every man of the 200 Cossacks commanded by Captain Tourgenieff, who on Tuesday night accommodated the Japanese left south westward and who at Sandepu unexs pectedly encountered good sized Jap aIiese force with machine guns, was wounded. and every horse, except Cap Tourgenieff's, was hit by the bullets in the Japanese machine guns Tourgen> jeff, though mortally wounded, carried off one man behind his saddle, while others managed to creep back to camp. But, as already cabled, not one man was killed on the field. There is the greatest fear on the part of the Rus sian wounded of falling into the hands of the Japanese. the Russians being convinced that they torture their pris- ianers.
