THREE DAYS OF HARD FIGHTING
Several important Positions Won
by the Soldiers of the

tack and Defense-En-
gagged at Close
Quarters.

ChefOO, Sept &c. - AS result of a
battle before Port Arthur which be-
gan on Sept. 10 the Japanese succeed
ed in capturing several important posi-
tons, and now the Russian tenure of
the big forts guarding the north, north
east and northwest sides of the town
is seriously threatened. Chinese in
formation places the Japanese losses
under 5000 for three days fighting,
and this comparatively small casualty
list is due to the excessive care used
by the Japanese in making their prepa-
rations for the advance. Russian cir
ton that the Japanese losses were I'M
usually severe, amounting to fully
three times the number mentioned
above.
Japs Control the Supply.
Possibly the most important capture
during the three days fighting was
that of Fort KurOpatkin, which while
of minor value with regard to prevent
ing the entrance into the town of the
Japanese had been constructed for the
purpose of protecting the source of the
garrisOn's water supply. The control
of this water supply is now in the
hands of the Japanese.
Battle Began Sept. 10.
The battle began before daybreak
on Sept. 10. During the day and night
of the 10Th, and until noon of the Goth,
the bOmbardment continued without
CESSATION and the many shells falling
from quarters which previously had
been silent made it obvious that the
Japanese had at last succeeded either
in mounting many heavy guns in new
positions or in strengthening their old
positions. At noon on Sept 20 the Jap
anese right and center commenced the
advance. The troops made use of the
trenches and infrequent natural cover
that lay in their way.
Capture of Fort kuropatkin.
The small forts to the south of
Shushiyen resisted this advance but
briefly, their garrisOns not being strong
numerically. Then came Fort Kuro-
patkin which is situated to the south
of Palichuang, and to the northeast
of the parade ground on low hill, and
after severe fighting it fell into the
hands OF the Japanese. At 5 o'clock
Of the afternoon of the Goth the Jap
anese captured a supplementary fort
which from the lower ground threatens
the fort on Itz mountain. This ended
the heavy fighting for that day, al
though the Japanese later were COM
PEELED to resist several sOrties
Threatens Two Big Positions.
All night and part of the next day
(the 21st the Japs poured shells into
supplementary fort 5000 yards west
of the fort on Itz mountain. Then
they assaulted the fort. The fighting
was fierce but the Japs won their way
into the fort, where they met the Rus

tO-hand, resulting in the humiliation
almost Of the Russian garrison. The
capture of the fort is a menace to both

THESE BOYS WORK.
Raise $40 Acres of Corn, for Which
They Receive 81, 1874. so.


BY industriously tending a patch of
corn all last summer three Missouri
boys earned not only the handsome
sum of 81, 1882, but sufficient distinc-
ton to have the fruit of their industry
selected to be one of the features Of
Missouri's exhibit at the Worlds Fair,
and to cause the commission to place
their photographs In a place of honor
in the Missouri building.
The boys are John, George and
Joseph Christian, aged 1S, 16, and u
years respectively. They are the sons
G. A. Christian, and their home is In
Tarkio, Atchison county. The work
was all done between May 1 and Nov.
l, and the boys are now in school.
The Christian boys accepted an offer
from Davis Rankin of Atchison county,
Missouri, who is the most extensive
cattle feeder in the world. Mr.. Rankin
has 10000 acres of land in Atchison
county, and each year he raises corn
on from $1,000 to 10000 acres
When the Christian boys applied for
tract of land on which to raise corn
Mr.. Rankin promptly turned over a
tract Of $40 acres and agreed to pay
the boys IL cents for every bushel Of
corn they would raise.
Hitching six Missouri mules to a
lister the boys went to work. This
machine piows, harrows, and seeds all
at one operation. They worked like
Trojans and soon the $40 acres were
all planted. Then the boys had q
breath spell When the corn began to
grow another task appeared for them,
and three times the growing corn had
to be cultivated Again was a requisi.
ton made on the Missouri mule, and
six were attached to each, Of three two
row cultivators. The weeds were kept
down, the soil loosened, and the corr
grew. This corn was gone over three
times. Meanwhile the grain grew and
ripened, and when November rolled
around the harvest was begun.
Up to this time the work of making
the crop had been done altogether by
the three boys. Extra help was EN-
ployed in the harvest, however, and
when the corn was gathered aDc
measured into Mr.. Rankin's great corr
bins it was found that the boys haC
grown 1851 bushels of the grain. A
IL cents per bushel this netted the sun
of $4,154.52, and Mr.. Rankin gave
them a check for that amount.-Chi
