ileges and powers RELOCATED to royalty

are certain things that a king may nod
do,
While 1t is quite within the province
Of the royal prerogative 70 dispose oil

declare war without consulting any,
body, yet our king could not utilize a
penny of the public funds without per.
mission from Parliament. Howevef
excellent and beneHcent his motlye
may be for so doing, the king is DE-.
barred from communicating with any
of his loyal subjects. and the same
Limitation prohibits him from accept
Ing gifts from any OF his people, except
in cases where the offerings are pre-,
scented through the medium OF an OIL
Ger of the State or an intimate friend
Of his Majesty. After an individual

Even the salaries of the kings SER

he cannot raise the salary of his own

duced the municipal authorities to erect
six pavilions, at a cost of $4,000, for
the express purpose of giving the plan
thorough trial. The buildings are
now completed and will be furnished
and ready for occupation within a few
days.
Each pavilion is separate in itself,
with walls and roof Of glass, and only
sufficient metal work i'm its construc-
ton to support the framework. The
floors are of cement, so as to be as
smooth and nonabsorbent as possible.
Each pavilion is twenty-seven feet

around the building is a six-foot porch,
also surrounded by glass, The glass is
arranged in frames ten feet in height.
BY means Of an automatic device one
side Of the building or all four sides
may be thrown open. The glass above
the doors is worked in the same way,
so that in warm weather each tier Of
glass frames may be opened, turning

Do Not Know Where q Stand Will Be
 Made.
 Anshanshan. Aug. 11.-(Delayed. .)-- Russian correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press says:
 We are awaiting developments here and speculating as to what will be the best move. how many men and guns the Japanese will be able to muster against us and where the expected big battle will occur. It is impossible at present to say whether a stand will be made at Liaoyang. which is excellent ly fortified, at Mukden. or. as some say, at Harbin. The indications. however. point to Liaoyang.
 There is general feeling that our cavalry and infantry in open country Will be at greater advantage than they would in the hill fighting further south. It is estimated that the Japa- nese forces consists of from 240,000 to 26O.O00 men, with 600 guns. It is ex- peeted that they will detach a portion or their troops near Port Arthur be- Tore pushing home the great attack. They are expected to bring up siege guns but we are well equipped with field siege trains.
 It is no secret here that the Japa- nese are trying to flank us and to cut off our communications from the north but there is considerable question of their ability to do so as such a mova would necessitate from 35 5O, 900 to 4OO.- 900 troops. which 1t is not believed the Japanese have at their disposal.

 A curious coincidence is that the heir was born on the anniversary of the caronization of St. Seraphim and another coincidence is that the birth occurred on the anniversary of the ap- pointment of Admiral Alexieff as yiceroy in the Far East.

BIC RATTLE EXPECTED.

Decisive Engagement Possibly Has
 Been Delayed by Rains.
 Liaoyang, August 12.--A Russian correspondent of the Associated Press who has arrived here says:
 We are daily expecting a big battle in the direction of Anshanshan. It has probably been delayed by the rains.
 The Japanese were checked at Beni- tzu (twenty-eigh miles east of Liao- yang) while advancing on the Yantai coal mines. It was reported that there was panic among the troops result ins in a great loss of life but this cannot be confirmed.
 The town is swarming with Japanese spies whom 1t is impossible to dis tinguish from Chinamen. They are oc- casionaily caught by the test of pull- ing their pig tails.

London. Aug 13.-The general opin- ion of the London morning news papers is that Japan will make atone- ment for the Ryeshitelni affair by restoring the ship to the Chinese au- thorities, but at the same time it is admitted that international obligations have so frequently been thrust aside during the war that Japan may pos sibly feel entitled to make a law unto herself. The greatest interest is evinced in the outcome of the naval battle. throwing light on which no further news has reached London
