peat the japanese exploit with torpedo
boats at Wei Hal Wei during the Chinese
Japanese war. by sending torpedo boat
destroyers into the harbor OF Port Arthur
for the purpose OF sinking ships at their
anchorages. but the attempt ended in
disastrous failure.
Four torpedo destroyers succeeded in
cree ping into the harbor which was not
protected by booms. but only one escaped
Two was sunk by the shore batteries and
one was crippled. The reckless bravery
OF the japanese in going 10 almost certain
destruction excites nothing but admlra-
tion here. The channel at Port Arthur
is sc torturous and strewn with wrecks

Practically the difficulty OF getting into

quarters 10 be fully as daring as that Of
the Japanese at Wei Hal Wei, where Ja-

So far as known the Japanese torpedo
boat destroyers did not even succeed in
launching torpedoes.
The admiralty has no confirmation OF
the report from Lao Yang OF an engage

and japanese warships of Censan.
There is good reason TO believe that the
Russian squadron is safe back In port.

II Is we'll known that under the ac-
ton of gravity the water composing
such q thin shell as soap bubble tends
10 run down OH all sides. so that the
walls of the bubble grow thin at the
top and thicken toward the bottom.
After a time the bubble becomes so
thin at the top that further flow OF wa
ter from this point can hardly take
place, and finally the bubble bursts.
But before this last stage is reached
degree of thinness in the walls or the
bubble Is attained which causes 1t TO
glow with brilliant iridescent colors.
Newton noticed that on top Of the thin
bubble illuminated by white sky light

OF the birds undoubtedly the blue
jays have the most inquisitiveness.
And they are the most noisy in express
Ing IT, although crows will hold close
second place. If not fully the equal.
How the jays screeched and whistled
and called-a confusion of all the
sounds of jaydom-near my home!
More than q dozen darted into a small
evergreen tree on the lawn. People
came from several houses in the vicin-
lty, all curious to know what was the
matter with the birds. 1t seemed to
be q "want TO know" on both sides.
The jays had discovered a cat walking
meekly along by the fence in the low
shrubbery near and under the spruce
tree. There was no nest in the vicinity
and, so far as could be ascertained, the
cat had not attacked the jays. But
what a pandemonium Of Jay jargon
over one meek looking, quiet cat! The
jays outdid themselves and called out
nearly all the occupants OF the many
houses on that street-St. Nicholas.

was spoken by 100000 Gallo-Romans.
Literary Latin was the language of the

succumb. In four centuries it ceased to
be understood by the soldiers, and In

things of government, law and war
