How He Saved His Brothers Life,

The sympathetic interest of the csun,

Hoar recalls one of his own repartees
about his elder brother. The Boston
papers had announced the serious i'll

his friends observing the Senator at
breakfast in a club room hurried over
for information.

Fireproofnp Wood.

Increased attention is being paid to
the problem of rendering wood and
other easily infammable substances
%fireproof. From. reports in the Ger
man press it would seem that the pro
cess of a Mr.. Gautsch, of Munich, is
very successful. The timber to be treat
ed is placed in a vacuum, produced by
pumping out the air. The cells are
thereby freed of air and the wood is
then impregnated under pressure with
a solution of sulphate of ammonia and
borax ammonia. The color, texture, or
destiny of the wood is not affected
thereby. The process renders it fire.

RUSSIANS BEGIN ADVANCE
Kuropatkin Orders Aggressive Move
ment Of His Armies.
DECLARES 1T is NOW THEIR TIME

In a Long Message to His Soldiers He
Praises Their Past Efforts and PropIl-
estes Coming Victories - Large Re-
Inducements Give Added Strength TO
the Cars Already Huge Armies.
ST. Petersburg, Eussia.-A private
dispatch from Mukden states that the
whole Russian army has begun to adj
vance. The japanese have been out
manoeuyred atBoniaputse, which place
they have evacuated. 1t was occupied
by the Russians, apparently without Sc
rious fighting.
According to less reliable news the
Russians captured the Shaho and Yen
tails stations after q sharp engage
ment. The Japanese centre, consisting
Of the Fifth and Tenth divisions, under
General Nodzu, Was compelled to aban-
don its positions and retreat.
Toxic, %Japan.-It is reliably reported
that the Russians south of the Hun
River have been greatly increased in
numbers, indicating that a counter at
LICK is contemplated
London, Eng.-The new phase of the
Manchurian campaign that was fore
shadowed in recent cable dispatches
seems to have begun with the abandon
ment of General Kuropatkin's defen-
sive tactics and a general advance
against the Japanese positions north Of
Liaoyang.
There is no official confirmation from
either side of this movement, but indie
pendent stories from several sources
concur in stating that such an advance
has commenced, and the issue of Gen.
eral Kuropatkin's stirring address is
regarded as equivalent to corrobora-
ton.
The criticism most to be regarded
here views General Kuropatkin's al
tered tactics as likely to lead to a COM
paratively early decision. The sugges-
ton is made that General Kuropatkin's
advance was ordered by st. Peters
burg.
This idea is based partly on the COM
mander-in-chief's significant mention
of Port Arthur, and partly on the fact
that Immediately after the decision to
send a second army to Manchuria he
apparently is about to risk everything
on an attack.
The Japanese, according to a Mukden
telegram, appear to be relying upon
holding their position at Liaoyang and
the hills to the eastward of Yentai,
which were General Kuroki's late bat
%tleground. They have not yet been
seen acting on the defensive, and the
outcome of the next few days opera
tons is awaited with eager interest.

The Dearest Milk.

Probably the dearest milk raised in
the world is that from q COW belong
ing to Mrs. John Carter Brown, who
pastures this one lone animal upon a
piece of ground at Newport, r. IT, for
which she paid $1,000 900. Mrs. Brown
has never figured up what her milk
costs her, but thinks that it is some
where between So and 81 per quart.
Probably some readers would be more
than willing to furnish Mrs. Brown
with milk at half this price, and
backed up with a guarantee as good as
a Government bond that the milk was
absolutely pure.-Daily Witness.

Price Way Up.
Chicago, nl.-"Wheat at 50 a bushei
before next May" was roared by the
bulls on the Board of Trade. There
was an excited demand for wheat,
with few traders v%enturing to sell. The
Agricultural Bureau at Washington,
d. c., through information furnished
by its army of crop reporters seat
tered throughout every wheat-grow-
ing county in the country, issued a
report that according to the bulls,
confirmed the worst fears regarding
the lamentable loss to the spring
wheat crop by the black rust. OF
winter and spring wheat produced
this year in the United States, it was
contended there is barely enough for
bread and seed if every bushel of it
was available, which is not possible,
and the country is therefore face to
face with the necessity of bringing in
foreign wheat to help keep the wolf
from the door until another harvest
shall have been raised.
