ing the night of June 14th, the Rus.
sian forces under General Stakelberg,
which had been engaged with the
Japanese for two days, slept in their
position, four miles south of Vafan-
gov, and on the morning of June 5
assumed the offensive and attacked the
Japanese lines. The battle lasted all
day, the Russians inflcting heavy loss
on the enemy. Heavy Japanese rein
forcements were brought up rapidly
from the SOUTH arriving in time to turn
the scales. The entire division of
fresh Japanese troops was thrown in
to line against the already tired Rus
slams and their immense superiority
in numbers enabled them to overlap
the left flank of the Russians who had
not sufficient men to meet the turning
movement and were forced to with
draw upon Vafangow The Russians
retired doggedly not beaten, but out
numbered.

IUHUu9u uURDER
a)u0uG The UTEs
Indians Put to Death Wap, an Old In
dian Medicine Man, Forcing His
Son to Fire the Shot.

Three Ute Indians have been ar
raigned in the District Court of Colo
RADIO charged with the killing of an ole
Medicine man of the tribe known As
Wap. After taking testimony all day
the case was dismissed the court hold
ing that it would have to be tried in
the United States Court as the crime
was committed by Indians against dn
Indian on the reservation.
There was an ancient custom among
the Ute Indians. in the days when the
tribes made long marches to escape
from their enemies, to put to death the
old braves and squaws of the tribe
However, since the tribe has grown
less nomadic and since coming in con-
tact with civilization, this old custom
has been abandoned. Some of the
men of the tribe, having grudge
against Wap, the medicine man, re-
vived the old custom and made it an
excuse for putting him to death. His
son. under various threats, was made
to tell where his father was in the
ildDll VI WdHueIluS, anu dt lilc dppOill-
ed time and place he was made to fire
a shot into the tepee of the old man.
The assassins then fired a volley of
shots into the teDee and the old brave
was seen by his squaw and son to
crawl out of the tent and some dis
.ance away, where he died He was
covered with wounds which We're
profusely.
The son was then made prisoner
Ind put to herding goats but has been |
escued from his bondage by Indian |
Trader Smith. The body of Wap ac-
.ording to the custom of the Indians, |
vas placed on ledge of boughs on
he top of the mountain. The authori- |
hies at Washington have been notified
# the occurrence by Agent Smith and
is thought that they will investigate
he matter at once

The Art Of GIVING.

Tactful giving is an art which few
acquire. The chief requisites Of il are
desire to be genuinely kind and
useful to another, a perfectly natural
manner when giving the favor, and
afterwards an apparent forgetfulness
that such a thing has ever been done.
For many a trihing gift there has
been exacted thrice it's worth in
spoken gratitude. An exaggerated
gratitude is never real. And no one
likes to feel that the person who
gave him anything is wondering why
he does not say more about the gift.

OPAuS NO LONGER FEARED
Superstition That the Stone Brings Bad Luck Passing Away-Stren-
 uous Life the Cause.

Superstition fades away in the strenu- uus life of the twentieth century. And the return to common sense has shown itself ill the modern fancy for opals. Sir Walter Scott Was chiefly responsible fer the idea of bad luck being connected with this stone, as will be remembered by readers of Anne of Geierstein. ," And others declare that. as the word opal is from tEe Greek ops tthe eye), the gem shares evil influence with pea cocks feather However. women have lived down all this and opals are the lucky .tone for autumn and have been worn by recent brides But even now stories are ttld Of the uncanny inu- ence of the opal.

INGENUITY TEST Or MIND.
Inventive Ability, Says Professor Thomas, Is Sure Sign of
 Mental Soundness.

Another test of mental ability which deserves special notice is mechanical ingenuity. says Prof w l. Thomas, in the Forum. Our white preemi
 hence owes much to this faculty. and the lower races are reckoned de feetiye in it. But the lower races do invent. and it is doubtful whether ono invention Is ever much more difficult than another. On the psychological side. an invention means that the mind sees roundabout way ol reaching an end when it cannot be reached directly. It brings into play the associated memory and involves the recognition of analogy. There is certain likeness between the flying back of a bough in ones face and the rebound of a bow. between a serpent's tooth and a poisoned arrow. between floating timber and a raft or boat, and water, steam and electricity are like horse in one respect-they will all make wheels go around. and do work.

With the club knife and sword he struck more effectively than with the fist; with hooks. traps, nets and pitfalls he understood how to seize game more surely than with the hands; in the bow and arrow, spear, blow gun and spring trap he devised motion swift CT than that of his own body: he pro tected himself with armor from the hides and scales of animals, and turned their venom back on them selves. That the savage should have originated the inventive process and carried it on systematically is indeed more wonderful than that his civilized successors should continue the pro- ess; for every beginning is difficult.
