The Principal of High School in

For 23 years worked in the school
with only short summer vacations.
l formed the habit Of eating rapidly,
naSsicated poorly which coupled with
my sedentary work led to Indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs. while others
prescribed dieting and sometimes
got temporary relief, other times not.
For 10 years | struggled along with
this handicap to my work, seldom laid
up but often burden to myself with
lameness and rheumatic pains.
1.-TWO years ago ! met an old friend,
a physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive diet OF
Grape Nuts, milk and fruit.
81 followed his Instructions and in
two months felt like new man with
no mora headaches, rheumatism or
liver trouble and from that time to
this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,
a.n stronger and healthier than have
been for years without a trace of the
old troubles.
Judging from my present vigorous
physical and mental state | tell my
people Methuselah may yet have to
take second place among the old men,

Corcoran. described the solid rubber
washer attached to the standpipe TO
prevent the water dripping into the
hose and rotting It. To get this wash
er off so the hose could be used, 1t
would have been necessary to discon-
meet the hose from the standpipe.
Corcoran did not see this done.

NO SOLDIERS COULD
WITHSTAND THE IAPS.

New Chwang, June 20, 6 a. ma
Russian officer, who was wounded in
the battle at Vafangow (Tellissu,) told
an Associated Press correspondent that
the losses on both sides were severe.
He placed the Russian casualties at
at least 1000.
He says no soldiers in the world could
Withstand the Japanese as they have
been fighting lately. The Russians
fought stubbornly. but were unable to
withstand the enemy's dashing persist
ency.
Several hundred wounded Russians
have been sent north owing to a lack
of hospitals and surgeons. All the
available transportation has to be used
for supplies, at the expense of the sick
and wounded. The Japanese buried
most of the Russian dead after the
battle.
1t is estimated on information obtain
able that the Japanese force moving
northwaTd is 10000 strong, with 10000
men in the aggregate engaged in the
operations at Port Arthur. Several
Japanese spies have recently been cap
tured a few miles south of New
Chwang. The Russians are becoming
more vigilant and are watching news
paper messages closely.

JAPANESE REPULSED
IN MINOR OPERATIONS.

st. Petersburg, June 2O.-Lieut. Gen.
Zilinsky, chief of staff to Viceroy
Alexieff, has sent the following tele-
gram to the Minister of War, under
date of June 10:
According to information received
from Port Arthur on June A. three
Japanese battalions pushed forward
across the STA Obindar mountains to-
wards Lounnatan. Two detachments
of Capt. Loubinsky's Rifles and a com
pany of frontier guards stopped their
advance.
The enemy's torpedo boats bonn
barded the semaphore station, but
they retired precipitately on the ap-
proach of the cruiser Novik and our
them.
"On June 10, our rifles drove the
japanese from two positions east of
STA Obindar mountains. Lieut.. Bit
zeieff and a rifieman were killed and
Lieut.. zerobinsky and four rifiemen
were wounded. Lieut.. Zerobinsky has
since died.

PLAN OF CAMPAIGN
AGAINST PORT ARTHUR.

Washington. June 2O.-An explana-
ton of the japanese campaign on the
Lao Tung peninsula, especially with
reference to Port Arthur, is contained
in an advice that has reached this city
from a source believed to be absolutely
reliable. The Japanese tactics, which
have so puzzled the Russians, are in
tended to isolate Port Arthur, but do
not contemplate an attack on the place
by Gen. Oku's army. The actual work
of reducing Port Arthur will be con-
fided to another Japanese army, under
command of Gen. Nogi, which will be
landed on the peninsula (and, indeed,
may even now be landed at point
south of Gen. Oku's position and con-
siderably nearer Port Arthur.
On the first of June no less than
tWenty-six transports had been gath
cred at one of the Japanese ports, to
embark this army, and it is probable
that the vessels attacked by the Vladi-
vostok squadron were of this number.

against a lamp post i'm the center of a
surging mob. A small boy had just
arrived on the scene with stout piece
of clothes line. The man was only res
cued after the policemen had used their
clubs freely.
Three young men who appeared at
the police station to make a complaint
against Binns, said that he had enticed
a small girl into the doorway of a
house, and was abusing her when they
interfered.
When Binns broke away from them
and started to ran, others took up the
chase, until bowling throng was at
his heels. He was caught. pounded and
kicked until almost helpless.
We've got him in a fine fix" shout
ed the crowd, "all we need is a rope.
This was all that was needed to start
the crowd. A boy ran to nearby
grocery store, and in few minutes was
in the center of the crowd again, hold
ing in his hands piece of clothes line.
At this point the police interfered.

JAPANESE ESTIMATE
RUSSIAN LOSSES AT 10000.

Toxic, June 20. p. m.--Further re-
ports received here show that the blow
inflicted by Gen. Oku on the Russians
in the fighting at TeNissu Cvafangow)
on June Is was more severe than at
first believed. The number of Russians
killed in this battle will probably ex-
coed 1000 and their total loss, includ-
ing prisoners, is estimated at 10000.
The Japanese losses are less than 1000
or about one-tenth of the Russian to-
tai.
UP to June II Gen. Oku had buried
ISIS Russian dead, and he reports that
many more dead have been found.
Chinese who watched the fighting
from the Russian side report that the
Russians removed many dead to the
trains with their wounded, and that
they buried or cremated many corpses
in the village of Huasung Kou before
they retreated.
The number of prisoners and trophies
taken by the Japanese is encouraging.
Gen. Oku is not yet able to report the
total number of prisoners
