RUSSIANS IN TIGHT PLACE.
kuropatkin Handicapped by Lack Of
Supplies and Men.

st. petersburg, July l2.-CO!Onel ne.
vitsky, of the general staff. In an inter-
view today says: "Kuropatkin's posi-
tion is more difficult than that which
confronted Lord Roberts In South .Af-
|rica. 1t Is as If Lord Roberts freceiv-
ed his supplies ky rait via Constants
nople, Cairo and Central Africa, and 1t
will be long time before Kuropatkin
will have enough supplies and men to
assume the offensive. In the meanwhile
he will have to fight rear guard actions.

This is the festival Of st. Peter and
ST Paul, one of the greatest holidays of
the year. All business is suspended
anc the government departments are
closed. The papers here are again ex-
plotting the prospects of an Anglo
Russian understanding. Novesti de-
claring the idea is nc longer Utopian,
but holds out advantages to both
countries, which are recognized more
and more every day, remarkable
feature being that the war which one
would think would have driven them
apart. is really drawing them togeth-
er.
Headquarters General Count Keller.
Eleven Miles West of Liandiansian.
July 12.-The opposing armies are
grimly facing each other on the heights
across Liank river, ready to engage in
the death grapple. The Liank crosses
the main Lao Yang Feng Wang Cheng
road. twenty eight miles east of Lao
Yang. 1t flows north into the Taitse
river, which passes thru the Lao Yang
and empties intothe Lao river.
A correspondent of the Associated
Press, who arrived here after thirty
five-mile ride from s;iaolindji, saw a
long line of infantry and transport
trains winding thru the rough noun
tains At Liandiansian lookout, sta
toned in a treetop, pointed out the way
to General keiler's headquarters near
Niutkiay. There the Russian eastern
army was found hidden in the hills.
In a plain tent the correspondent saw
General Keller living like simple SOL
dier, his staff being quartered in a ma
tive hut nearby. The general looked
cheerful and was bronzed by exposure.

generals tent were many officers of the
guards, the pride of ST. Petersburg. To
see them as weather. beaten as the
Cossack officers one could scarcely be-
lieve them to be the tlashing guards
men of the Russian capital They are
bronzed and hardened fighters. for
hardly day passes without collisions
between the advance posts of the east
ern army and the Japanese. The whole
army is anxious to fight General Kuro-
XII, whose beautiful headquarters are at
yandiapudZe and whose men are ems
trenched on the other side of the river.
The burning question is, who will be
the first to cross the dread valley of the
Iiank river?

Cured of itching Plies.

and the result is shown by the follow ing table complied by him:

It is explained that the emitted items would probably swell this total by more than s250 OO0, ,00O, making a grand total of nearly 1,OOOO 900 given away in thirteen years by public spirited citi- zens. But the record is more than one of yearly generosity. It shows the comparative ability of citizens to give and forms a barometer of good or bad times. For instance, In 1896, when ev- cry business interest was depressed, the total was the lowest; Tn 1898, during the war with Spain, when gifts went to more immediate and patriotic purposes, there was another drop. and in 1901 highwater mark was reached, chiefly by the gifts of one person, An drew Carnegie, which aggregated more than SS1, 900, coo, leaving, however, more than s75,0OO,OOO to the credit of other benefactions.
 Where does the money come from? MT. Hagar answers this question in the following paragraph: "In far less than a majority of individual cases, not from people considered rich in the present meaning of that word, although the acknowledged wealthy contribute the bulk of the total. In 1896, for instance, nineteen persons gave or bequeathe more than $65,- 66O,OOO. Gifts and bequeaths ranging from s5,OOO to $25,OOO aggregated nearly S2, 900, ,OO0, and those from $25, GOO up- ward reached the great sum of more than SS7, 900, GOO. In two or three years there were few large benefactions, the totals being made up of an unusu- ally large number of small sums.
