JAPS AND RUSSIANS
IN HAILlNG DISTANCE.

Mukden, Oct. 81, via Pekin.-The
manifestations of the Japanese in
their center which now converges at
a point where the plain meets the hills,
have attained the greatest Importance.
These manifestations are being fully
met by the Russians, so that the sit
uation at this point of the prospective
battlefield is now one of the greatest
interest and apprehension.
At the present moment the trenches
on both sides are crowded with troops,
and at many places the Japanese and
Russians are within hailing distance.
At the isolated hill Of Manalon. in the
plain where the Russians ten days ago
captured fourteen guns and bayoneted
800 Japanese, the rival forces are only
600 PAGES apart.

ARCHBISHOP ELDER

ON His Lips.
Cincinnati. Oct. s1.-Most Rev. Will
liam Henry Elder. Archbishop of Gin
cinnati. in his eighty-sixth year, died
tonight after suffering four days from
a severe case of la grippe. complicated
with extreme weakness.
The Archbishop was conscious to
the end and his last words were a
prayer. He feebly said:
Holy Mary. mother of God, pray
for us sinners now at the hour of our
death. Amen"
He then kissed crucifix and with
a peaceful smile on his face breathed
bis last.
The Archbishop had been in fairly
good health during the summer and
early fall Only a few hours before he
was stricken he conversed with those
a bout him and seemed in excellent spir-
its, though suffering slightly from
cold. He returned from an extended
visit to New York city three weeks
ago and was recounting incidents of
that trip. After an animated CONVEX
sation he was left alone in his room
Two priests soon after heard the
sound of a heavy fall. Hurrying to
his quarters they found him upon the
floor, cold and in a semi comatose
condition. He was tenderly removed to
Eis couch and physicians were sum-
moned. The venerable patient rail-
lied slightly as a result of the slim
ulants administered and recovered
partial consciousness. His condition
was attributed to fainting spells
brought on by sudden chills due to
the cold He improved slightly as the
hours passed, but suffered several
times from a recurrence of the chills,
which were as severe as the first. A
priest, before administering the last
sacraments went to the Archbishop's
bedside and communicated to him the
wishes and intention of the clergy
men. He said: Father, you know
the best"
The clergymen then gathered about
his bedside, and during the time the
sacraments were being administered
to him they had difficulty in keeping
the Archbishop awake.
Despite his advanced age the Arch
bishop has travelled extensively dur
ing the past summer having attended
several Catholic conventions in diff
ferent states, and visited the Worlds
Fair at st. Louis. About three weeks
ago he went to New York city.

Transit Company and United Rail-
ways Companies assets was granted
to-day by Judge Fisher in the st.

was fraudulently designed and that
the railroads and their stockholders

Misrepresentation, deception and
fraud on the part of Brown Bros, who
designed to appropriate the assets Of
the Transit Company, which assets
greatly exceeded in value the indebt-
edness of the corporation"
A decision will be made when the
case is heard on it's merits.

John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay
Daniel Webster, Aaron Burr and John
g. Calhoun were among the guests who
have been dined and wined in this
house. Perhaps the most distin-
guished guest in the old house during
it's occupancy by Gov. Eustis was La
fayette, who spent there the night OF
June 16, 1925, before attending the
ceremony of the laying of the corner
stone of Bunker Hill monument on the
following day. Lafayette was given a
banquet by Gov. Eustis at his house in
Roxbury. and all Roxbury turned out
to welcome him to the town.
The old Williams house in Rox-
bury is Of very ancient origin, and it
has been occupied by generation after
generation of the Williams family.
1t was built about the year 1850,
and it was for many years the home
of Stephen Williams, who was one of
the many tanners who have lived in
Roxbury. The house was sold to
Samuel Walker about eighty years
ago, and he spent a large sum of
money in identifying the then extern
sive grounds. He was one of the most
noted hcrticulturists of his day. He
died in the old house in December,
1860.
The house of the Apostle" Eliot
stood i'm mediately in the rear of the
building now occupied by the Peoples
National bank. Eliot owned here a
small estate Of two and one-half acres
of ground and a house of two stories
with a gambrel roof. He did the most
remarkable work among the Indians
of any man that ever came to New
England. He accomplished, after
twelve years of hard labor, the great
task of translating the Bible into the
Indian tongue. and Cotton Mather de
clared that Eliot writ the whole with
but one pen" This was the first
Bible printed on this continent, and
copies of it are SO rare that they are
worth thousands of dollars.
Many thousands of visitors to Rox-
bury on the 18th of June. on the oc-
casion of the dedication of the beauti-
full monument to Gen. Joseph Warren,
noticed the deliberately decorated old
house on Warren street, a short dis
house, known to many as the old Tur-
ner house, and it is said to be the old
est house in Roxbury, having been
built in 1853.

names of Dudley, Curtis, Williams and
Griggs are also associated with the
entire history of the town. They are
names that stand for all that is best
in the growth of Roxbury, and no town
in America can show a finer honor
rolf than can this old town.
OF all the names associated with
the history of Roxbury none stand
forth with greater prominence than
that of Eliot, the great apostle to the
Indians. Born at Nasing, England.
twenty miles from London, he came to
Roxbury in the year 1852 and became
pastor of the church there. The story
of his ministry of more than half a
century is one of the most interesting
in the religious history of our country.
That Roxbury was not a town of
very rapid growth is known from the
fact that at the close of the war of
the revolution, more than 125 years
after the above description was writ
ten, Roxbury had but 213 dwelling
houses, 167 barns, 160 corn houses,
three churches and five schools. Many
of the people of the town must have
been engaged in tanning, for we are
told that there were at this time eight
cen tan houses and slaughter houses.

the town had 1926 inhabitants.
1t is in part of the 'fayre houses
of the early days of Roxbury that this
chronicle has to deal. The first houses
in the town could not have been very
''fayre" to look upon, judged by our
modern standard of beauty. They
were like all the houses of that time
in New England-of but one story,
with very steep roofs, and they were
built of clay and mud or of roughly
hewn logs. They had huge stone
chimneys in the center, and the fire.
places were of great size. Most of
the houses had but one room, with
perhaps a loft above used as a sleep
ing room by some members of the
family. Some of the windows were of
oiled paper instead Of glass, and the
first windows were of small, diamond
shaped panes of glass.
