1t was the intention of E.

the lots on which this mag
nificent building is now be-
ing erected to use them for
a bank structure, but the
location was suggested as a
most desirable one for a
large Masonic Temple, and
Mr.. Waite from that mo-
ment gave the idea encour-
agement that has resulted in
the actual undertaking of
the cherished idea. f. f.

holder and financial hacker
of the big undertaking. The

LONDON, July 16. A Tatchekiao

wounded at $4,000 and those of the
Russians at $500. The Japanese were
| driven out, and the Russians occupied

The Japanese have now changed
their frontal position, and Il big battle
is expected at the eastern portion of
the defenses owing to the Japanese
turning movement. In the fighting at
the right flank of the line of d~efcnses
Of Port Arthur the Russians drove
back the japanese and occupied the
east bank of the Lunsantan and the
leights commanding L%unsantan pass.
Fighting is imminent at Tatchekiao
and Haicheng. The japanese are in
trenched six miles south of Tatchc-
xiao. Much skirmishing is taking
place.
The weather is favorable for the
movement of troops. No rain has fallen
for Il whole week.
1t is rumored that a japanese col
umn has appeared on the Mukden
road.
A st. Petersburg dispatch says that
a Russian correspondent in the field
repeats the story of a Japanese disas-
ter at Port Arthur. but does not add
any details except the statement that
after the repulse the Japanese fled
in great disorder, pursued by the Rus

INVENTION is PATENTED.

Albert Cotton, a we'll known farmer
living near Chillicothe, has been
granted a patent on an invention re-

either adjusted or removed.
The post is constructed, preferably of
sheet metal, with a U-shaped rib hav-
ing series of downwardly extending
incisions for receiving the line wires
and series of levers for clamping the
wires in the incisions.
At the lower end Of the fence post
is imbedded in terra Gotta OF other

around the post being filled with &C.

sired height and with any number of
missions. The operation of fastening
and releasing the wires is very simple
and the post possesses many other ad-
vantages.
