tween and Is millions. The empire occupies a peninsula just south of Si- beria, jutting into the Pacific ocean be- tween the Yellow sea and the Sea of Japan, and reaching within less than 100 miles of the southern end of Ja- pan.
 Is Korea a rich country?
 Not especially. It is purely agri- cultural land and the methods of cul- tivation are primitive A few gold mines are operat ted and there are sup posed to be deposits of copper, iron and coal.
 Why, then, does Russia want Korea |?
 Chiefly because of it's position. Korea is an extension of Manchuria which practically belongs to Russia. In the natural development of contiguous ter ritory Russian merchants have crossed the boundary into Korea and Russian interests accommodating there under the weak native government naturally lock to the czar for protection. Why is Korea of strategic value to Russia?
 For two reasons. First, Russian yes sells must make a long detour around Korea to pass from Vladivostock. Si- beria, to Port Arthur the Russian har- bor in Manchuria. In this journey they must traverse narrow strait be- tween Korea and a Japanese island, comparable to Gibraltar. To insure free passage Russia seeks to control the end of the Korean peninsula. Second, when Russia begins it would be in convenienced if hostile power should have military base on the northeast ern coast of Asia. Therefore it de- sires to annex Korea.
 | Why does Japan object to the Rus sian annexation of Korea? ! Because Japan is overcrowded, with a population twelve times as dense as that of the United States, and it seeks an outlet for it's emigrants on .he mainland. The island empire has hoped, too. to make Korea the base of an attempt to extend Japanese in | fiuence throughout China. Further more, it now conducts nine-tenths of Korea's commerce and owns Korea's two railways. Its trade and railways would both be threatened and probably be deprived of value in the event of Russia's success. And, finally, Japan holds that it's own independence would be menaced were Russia to gain the harbor at the end of the Korean pen insula almost within cannon range of | the Japanese island fortress of Tsush- | ina.
 Does Japan want to annex Korea? No. It is satified to maintain Korea s sovefeignty with the expectation that its natural advantages of situation will give it the lions share of Korea g trade.
 When did the trouble between Japan and Russia begin?
 It began in 1895 when by war Japan had forced China to recognize Korea s independence and to grant Japan the southern lend of Manchuria, seized the surrendered territory and secured a timber cutting concession in the YaIu
Arizona republican., 1904-01-26

valley in Korea.
 What brought on the present crisis?
 Last year Russia advanced the claim that the timber concession extends to the valleys of all rivers tributary to the Yalu and that it gives the Russians the right to build railways and to monopolize the. port of Yongampho at the Yalu's mouth.
 Did Russia announce its intention to annex Korea?
 It did not. But Japan took the ground that it's procedure meant vir- tual annexation and so issued a pro- test.
 Is it likely to lead to war?
 Japan says it will unless Russia re- cedes from it's claims.

THE BONANZA CIRCLE.
Last Weeks Progress in the Warren
 District at Bisbee.

The week just closed has not witness ed any important developments in the work that is being prosecuted with un- .bated vigor throughout the district, iays the Bisbee Review. Owing to the ,ncountering of water in several of the shafts. notably the Marquette & Ariz- ona and the Calumet and Bisbee. sink ing has been discontinued and the principal work now consists in drift ing.
 During the week the Calumet and Cochise. which still continues to sink, encountered a more favorable forrna- = ion. This shaft is fast nearing the 1000 mark. when drift will be started in the direction of the Calumet and Pittsburg which is just across the hlll. Down at the Marquette there is 130 feet in the shaft. and all sinking has

been discontinued but work progresses with vigor on the drifts. The Wolver- inc has been busy this week putting in pumps which have become necessary before any more headway can be made in the shaft. The Calumet and Bisbee, Wolverine and Arizona and the Hig- gins and Calumet and Cochise are ali local favorites and owing to their close proximity to the Bonanza circle their development work is watched with great eagerness.
 Continued work along economical lines sums up the entire story of the smaller development companies dur ing the week. A little better showing in the Calumet and Cochise, Calumet and Bisbee and the Wolverine are the only changes worthy of mention.

FROM CALF OF THE LEG TO ANKLE
 ksoLID SORE.
 New Castle, Pa, July 2e, 1908.
 Three years ago a common boil ap. peared on the calf of my limb. Not yield. ing to simple homo remedies, I consulted [ physician, who prescribed . poultice, flax seed supposedly. By some fearful mistake was given corrosive subli- mste, and after having 1t on for e few minutes I could endure the pain no longer, SO took off the application and found that my limb from the oaiI .o tkS ankle was in an awful condition. i'm. mediately sent for another physician, who told me had been poisoned. My limb from the calf to the ankle was one solid unframed sore. was advised to begin 8. g. S., and improved rapidly under it's use, but about this time had an attack oftyphoid fever, and this set tied in the original sore. This, of course, caused back set, but having confidence in the ability of 8. 8. S., I began it again as soon as was over the fever, and to make long story short, was completely and permanently cured. Two years have elapsed, and have never had Q return of the trouble. MRS. K. A. DUFFY,

THANKSGIVING
0BSERYANCES
1t Was. An Ideal Day Spent in
An Ideal Way.-Union
Services.

Thanksgiving day in Palestine was
as near an ideal day as the weather
man could have we'll supplied. The
sun was warm and embracing, and
outdoor pleasures we're perfect.
The day was very generally observ-
ed by our people, business being prsc-
tically suspended. The merchants
closed up for the entire day, the rail-
road offices and shops were shut down,
and the entire population spent the
day in pleasure and recreation. A
great many people attended the union
service in the morning, others went
visiting, great many family parties
marking the pleasures of the day,
while hundreds of others went to the
woods, some to hunt with guns, some
to fish and some to gather nuts.
Of course the dinner was the event
of the day, and many big dinings were
given.
THE UNION SERVICE.
The Union Thanksgiving service
! held in the Presbyterian church was
largely attended and was enjoyed by
those present. The sermon was
preached by the Rev. 1. Sellers of the
Avenue Baptist church, who delivered
a most appropriate discourse suitable
to the occasion. The music was an
especial feature and was very good.
Mrs. V. D. Wilson sang a beautiful
solo in her usual sweet voice. A coli
lection was taken for the Woman's
Relief Home.
Also services we're held at the E2is-l
copal church, and good audience was
present and enjoyed good service.
The day was spent in general good
humor and enjoyed by all.
