DEFENDING THE CAPITOL.
Behind Bull Run and Bell Will
BE Surprised.

Gainesville, Va, Sept. 9.-Gen
Grant, commanding the blue army
has taken up strong position be-
hind Bull Run. This fact has not YET
been ascertained by Gen. Bell, COM
handing the attacking brown army
Gen. Grant selected the position be-
hind Bull Run in which to defend
Washington in order that 1t might be
as easy as possible for his reinforce
ments, which are on the way to join
him. His position is not what Gen.
Bell evidently had calculated on in
ordering his turning movement. For
this reason Gen. Bells army is as yet
fully two miles from the main position
Of his adversary and his advance is
being opposed by single brigade.
So far as the war problem is con-
cerned the benefit to the men and
officers lies in the maneuvering for
the position. When the forces collide
the respective strength each side in
each locality has decides the advan-
tage rather than the shooting of blank
cartridges.

Kuroki and Oku from 0pposit d

KURopA1KIB MUST FIGHT AGAIN.
Significant Story of . Movement
Toward Tieling-London Sees
Only determination of One
Side or the other.

London, Sept 9.-What is happen
ing at the seat of war is known only
to those on the ground. There is no
immediate news, neither through the
medium Of press dispatches nor from
official sources. Kuropatkin reports in
a telegram sent Wednesday evening
that he did not lose a single gun in
his retreat and that Kuroki is on his
east flank and Oku is on his left, and
st. Petersburg officials surmise that a
big battle may be fought If the Japa-
nese continue to press on to Mukden.
The story of bad roads and hampered
transport is repeated and from Muk-
den, In the last dispatch received,
comes the significant intimation that
there is an interesting movement to-
ward Telling, the nature Of which is
not disclosed"
The fanatcal disregard for death
displayed on both sides and the ability
to keep an army in being, either from
offensive or defensive point Of view
and under conditions considered here
to be prohibiive, has done more to
convince the English press of the des-
perate character Of the struggle being
waged in the far east than all the dis
patches that have emanated from To
ho or st. Petersburg declaring that
neither the Japanese nor the Russians
will ever give in.
In place Of endeavoring to follow
the minute progress Of the campaign
the newspapers somewhat hopelessly
devote editorials preparing the English
public to be witnesses that the war
will be longer drawn out and more
terrible in every respect than any
within recent centuries.

Emergency Medicines.

1t is a great convenience to have at
hand reliable remedies for use in
cases Of accident and for slight injur-
les and ailments. A good liniment
and one that is fast becoming favor
lite il not household necessity is
Cham berlain's Pain Balm. By apply
ing it promptly to cut, bruise or
burn it allays the pain and causes the
injury to heal in about one-third the
time usually required, and as it is an
autiseptic it prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. When Pain Balm 10

Kuropatkin Reaches Mukden with
Only a Remnant Of His Army.
WEARY SOLDIERS SLEPT IN Mud.


St Petersburg, Sept. 10.-lt SEEM
definitely established that Field Mar
shall Oyama's tired troops abandoned
on Wednesday the attempt to head OF
a.! Gen. Kuropatkin, whose army has ar
rived safely at Mukden after frightful
experiences In fioundering through
mud and mire over the mandarin
road. Some descriptions Of the scene
along the line of retreat are almost in
credible. They tell how the men lay
down in the mud and slept in a
drenching rain.
1t Is evident that the last determined
effort of the Japanese to bring Kuro-
patkin to bay was made on Tuesday,
but the Russian commander-in-chief
faced about and two corps with ar
tillery beat off the Japanese while the
remainder of the troops continued the
march to Mukden. After that the
Japanese could only hang on to the
tanks and try to shell the retreating
columns from the hills. The outposts
are still in contact, but they are not
even exchanging shots.
A late dispatch sent from Mukden
describes the horrible plight Of the
tentless and shelterless soldiers. The
detailed statement of the Russian
losses is awaited with intense inter-
est. The general expectation is that
the losses will approximate 10000, as
against 10000 for the Japanese.
The work of burying the dead was
left to the Japanese, who were forced
TO attempt the task as matter Of self
but 1t was an almost i'm
possible undertaking. The awful rains
have handicapped the work Of crema-
ton on which the Japanese relied and
only shallow trench burials were pos
sible in many cases under the circum-
stances.
The care of the wounded has taxed
the hospitals to the utmost. One cor
says that 10000 wounded
had passed through the Mukden hos
pitfalls up to Monday and only the most
severe cases could be attended to by
the nurses and surgeons.

Trousers for a Century.

Just one hundred years ago trousers began to kick instead of to elbow out knee brooches, which had long covered masculine legs, including no little pad ding and other artificiality. The legs in knee brooches came to look pretty much alike. Lean legs grew round and plump at any rate, and fat legs were on occasion laced into reasonable pro- portions. Legs decked out in that fashion went naturally with the man of the previous century who thought that he, the rooster, should outshine in raj ment the little brown hen.
 But times have changed The rooster of the human race now desires to dress, not gaudily, but in such good taste that the mere passer-by cannot recall what he had on Good taste and har- mony are sought now, and nothing especially noticeable or attractive Is accepted by the trousered man of to- day
 Trousers too, hide minor imperfec- tions, rendering padding unnecessary. They can be put on or off in fire alarm without material loss of time, and the dudes who think they can re- vive the knee brooches of the dandies of the days of Charles II do not give due consideration to the changes of time. Men aro no longer dandies. They are hustlers, full of vigor, intellectual and practical Fine dress has been handed over to the other sex, and the men of today regard with contempt of the deepest sort the knee brooches of the last century. This is the Trousers Age, and it will be continued indefinite ly. The dandy is a relic of an idle and silly past, and his knee brooches have been dismissed as a part of his folly and frivolity.

Music In Saloons.

Music Is conspicuously absent from Birmingham saloons" said a man about town yesterday. "In a great many south ern cities even the best places have or- chestras. pianos or Regina music boxes, and the less pretentious bars cou.d hardly maintain their prestige were it not for their wandering players and eternally humping piano. Down in the Tenderloin districts there Is often such din issuing from the dance halls and saloons that one has difficulty in distinguishing the various airs that are being murdered. This is not the case in Birmingham, how ever, and it Is the exception rather than the rule to hear music in a local saloon.
 Tn southern cities negro orchestras are very popular for second-rate drinking places, and in the negro dives they are nearly always to be found The negro finds any place dull when there is no music, and consequently proprietors must provide at least broken-down piano, if nothing else. Then in the bars frequented by a rough class of whites one often sees one of those picturesque characters with long hair, bleared eyes and dirty linen, who sits on a stool and thumps cheap plano from the time the shades of even ing fall to the hour for closing"

At West End Park.

Next week the lovers of outdoor sport will bid goodbye to comic opera without a single good actor, dancer or singer in the cast and return to the wholesome vigor of the national game. The season proper-our own season, will not be opened until the later days of April, but the big<teams from northern cities will begin to ar rive next week in order to prepare for the approaching season. In some re- spects these preparatory games will be interesting, for they will enable the home lovers of the game to compare their own team with the best in the land.
 One thing may be set down as cer- tain, namely, faster ball will be played in the south this season than ever be- fore. Every team has been strength ened up to the pay limit, and probably far beyond. The salary limit is one of those elusive things that you never can put your hand upon, and none has been quicker to evade 1t than the men who advocated its adoption.
 At this writing the teams of the Southern league are made up, or near ly so, and yet no two baseball enthusi- asts agree as to the probable standing of the eight sets of players. The pen nant is conceded to no lone of them, and no one is claiming at present tail end honors. As things stand all are hopeful, and all think they have play CTS who will prove damaging antagon- ists on the field of athletic strife. The utmost that can be said is, the spec tators will get great deal of good sport this year for their money, and the indications are that every team in the league will be prosperous and happy.

Diet in the Russo-Iapanese War.

The Russians are gross feeders, con- suming large quantILIe5 of stimulating foods. They are meat eaters and free consumers of spirits. Fatty articles are particularly to their liking. On the other hand, the Japanese subsist chiefly on rice and dried fish, and are not heavy feeders in any respect.
 And yet it is known that the Japan csc can march farther than the Rus sians in day, and arrive in better con- dition. In approaching Pekin the Jap anese showed themselves superior in endurance to the forces of other coun- tries. The Japanese diet of rice, beans and fish is full of nutriment, and the little MonSolan does not need the stimulating qualities of meats or cof- fee. It is said the rice the Japanese eat is highly nutritious because it is not polished except for export. The polishing process removes the protein surface, thus taking away three-fourths O. the flavor and about one-half of the fibre material.
 Men thus fed are hardy, and the ap- prehension that they will not bear up well under reverses will prove errone- ous. The hardy man, physically speak ing, is apt to be hardy spiritually. It is not matter of color, but of rations, and the little yellow man of the Far East will prove strong under revers es beyond reasonable doubt They know full well that the fortunes of war rare- ly run unbrolSen in one direction. The enemies of Japan are trying to find comfort in the fact that Japan has not yet been defeated, and that when she Is her crmies will crumble to pieces. The pro-Russians who anticipate such a result are doomed to new disap- pointment.
