LIVED TWENTY YEARS
 WITHOUT BEING KISSED
This Tennesseean Boasted That He Never Even Put His Lips to s'' His Wife's. 4

Martin, Tenn.-Eli Richardson, who died this week at the age of 70 years, boasted that he had never put his lips to a woman's, though he was married.
 In explaining how he happened to eschew the joys of kissing he said he was a very bashful boy. At party before the civil war game was often played in which the young women had to forfeit kiss to her captor.
 Young Richardson's timidity being known, a plan was formed to get him to kiss a girl. She placed a pin in, her mouth, and when Ellis bashful lips were to press hers she was to prick his lips with the pin The fatefulmomente came. Eli demurred, but was prevailed upon to take the kiss from the maiden He started to implant the Kiss, but his eye caught the gleam of the pin and he re- fused. From that day until his death he never kissed a woman.

DESTROYERS ESCAPE
Desperate Sortie of Port Ar
 thur Torpedo Flotilla.
KAMINURA'S FLEET NEAR SINGAPORE
Squadron of Powerful Japanese Cruisers Sail south to Hold Sea Gates Against ROdestven-
 slxy's Armada.

l.. LONDON, Dec. 23.-A Chefu report says that eight torpedo boat destroyers have escaped from Port Arthur, where for the last twenty four hours a severe snowstorm has been raging.
 A special semioff1cial St. Peters burg dispatch says that four Japanese cruisers and twelve torpedo boats are proceeding west from Singapore It is not believed. however, that such small squadron can have been sent out by Japan with any idea of engaging in offensive operations, but it is re garded as more probable that 1t is the purpose of this squadron to keep a surveillance over the two detachments of the Russian feet which are expect ed to soon unite in the neighborhood of Madagascar. It Is generally believed that Vice Admiral Rojestvenslxy in tends to establish naval coaling base on some small island between Mada- gascar and the Philippines and that the Japanese cruising squadron hopes to mark down the rendezvous for Vice. Admiral Togo's information The hope is expressed that Admiral Rojestven- sky will be able to catch up with the Japanese scouts, which, 1t is believed, he could easily destroy, thereby weak ening the Japanese in the final naval engagement.
 A Tokyo report received from Vice Admiral Togo says that prisoner taken by the fleet, who is considered to be reliable, reports that as result of the attack on the battleship Sevastopol eight torpedoes struck her deck and that at least one took effect on her hull. She now lies aground, with her gun ports awash.
 A Singapore Straits Settlements) re- port says that two Japanese cruisers called there and left soon afterward. They reported that two Japanese bat tleships, two first class cruisers, two second class cruisers and twelve tor pedo boat destroyers were near by, steaming west.
 Shanghai reports that a squadron of powerful cruisers under Admiral Kami- mura has gone south to the China sea to meet the Russian second Pacific squadron.
 Advices from Tokyo by telegraph from the Japanese army before Port Arthur says:
 'The right column of the army, talk ing advantage of the enemy's excite ment, drove the enemy off an eminence north of Housanyentao, on Pigeon bay, and occupied the position and later dis lodged the enemy from height on the peninsula west of Housany entao, which we occupied, capturing one. small gun. After. the Japanese occupation of the positions the enemy made coun- ter attack, but was immediately re- pulsed. At present our occupation of the positions is practically secure
 Mukden dispatches say that artillery firing from PoutiIof hill dispersed a party of Japanese who were trying to intrench in front of that position
 The port of Yinkow is closed by ice.
 Large Japanese re-enforcements land ing at Dalny are going in the direction of Port Arthur.
