Machine Guns.

The Russians used machine guns
against the Japanese with effect and
the Japanese were unable to press
their attacks home.
During the day the Japanese left
wing was reinforced with a detach-
ment from the reserves. The Jap
anese artillery which ATTACKED the
Russian left reach ed Wangerhtun at
. o'clock in the afternoon and poured
a fire into the rear of the Russians at
Shoushanpao.
The operations of the day did not
succeed in developing the Russian
strength in all directions. By the
constant arrival of reinforcements it
was seen that guns at Shoushanpao
alone finally numbered one hundred.
The Russian positions at all points
were strongly fortified and the auxil-
larry defenses blocked infantry at
tacks. During the night of August
80, the Russians at ShoushanDao at
tackled the Japanese left and repulsed
that position of the left which occu-
pied Shaoyanzui. They also made a
night attack upon the ridge south of
Shoushanpao
On the morning of August 81 both
armies renewed the attack with vigor.
BY a late hour in the afternoon neith-
er contestant had gained any visible
result. The Japanese were holding
Tengchiafang and Tsafantun and
fighting bravely against superior
forces.
A portion of the Japanese right sue
ceeded in capturing an eminence to
the west of Hsinluntun at noon of
the 31st.

WOMEN AFTER MIDDLE AGE.

Mrs. L. H. Harris in the Independ-
ent.-After middle age the average
woman begins to care more for wom-
en- than she does for men, Her allie
glance undergoes a psychic change,
her eyes are opened, her judgment
cleared, and she learns to appreciate
her own sex fully. The characters
tics that seemed to her hateful frail-
ties long ago, are defended now as
their poetic distinctions. She sees
in every girl the fair mirage of her
own youth; in the pathetic, care-worn
face of the young matron the gentle
heroism of her other years; in the
mother of a grown family her own
queen days when sons and daughters
suddenly grew tall and proclaimed
her. And for them all she has
chastened affinity. Men have passed
out of her calculations They are the
things with whom she failed or sue
ceeded, from lover and husband down
to her youngest son. And, however
much she remains dependent upon
them, she is no longer related to them
in the same way. She has survived
them and returned to her own.

the democratic by Senators German

based ON a statement by Senator
Allison on the appropriations for the
