The motto Look before you leap"
has been handed down for generations
and generations, but it is a curious
fact that a person has never suggest
ed the thought of thinking before
looking" If there had ever been a
motto like the latter it is probable that
Gideon l.. Joy of Hancock would new
er have received the shock to his sys-
TEN that he experienced when he look
ed into a hole in the ground and found
a big, black bear about three inches
from his nose. MIR. Joy did not stay
looking into that hole any longer than
was necessary to recover from his as
constituent, but got up and the way
he legged it for home and a gun would
probably have made the bear laugh if
he had stayed to witness Mr.. Joys
sprinting act. When Mr.. Joy return
ed with his rifle the bear was nowhere
to be seen, nor has he been seen since.
Mr.. Joy will likely get his gun first
and look afterward il such a case ever
comes UP again.

Beef Trust Investigators to Probe Deep
y, However.


Washington, D. G., Oct IL. Agents
who have been at work in various parts
Of the country gathering information
for the department III commerce and

about completed their Investigations and
it Is said that the report which Congress
asked for before The adjournment Of the
last session viii be ready on December
Among the complaints which have
been made to the department, II is
said, is one that agens Of the trust go
TO the farmers at certain seasons OF the
yeaf and offer the trusts price for cat
tie Ii this price is refused, the trust,
IL IS charged. b. means Of its power
with the railroads, holds mp the farm

whatever figure The combine desifes to
offer
Ne have gone into the Investigation
deeply, said an officer Of the depart
ment, and when we are through there
is not likely to be much left worth in-
vestigating. The latest phase Of the
probing is aimed at retailers and small
wholesale men who have been accused
Of raising their price at the slightest
proTocation and putting the blame on
the packers
we have found that the buyers 81
the packers are specializing, conering
and doing other things that
border on the illegal SO far however,
We have been unable to convict anyone
Of controlling the prices Of the whole
country or manipulating them for the
benefit Of the so-called trust.

SICK
Russian Soldiers Who We're
Wounded in Battle Praise
Japanese

London, June 1S.--A dispatch from
Mukden states that the Russian sol
diers habitually speak with contempt
of the quality of the Japanese troops.
The Japs, they say, are good coolies,
but only in that respect are they ex-
cellent; but all the evidence that has
reached the Russian headquarters as
to the Japanese hospitals and their
medical and surgical arrangements
generally is unanimous as to the ex-
ceNence of that part Of the enemy's
equipment.
Two wounded men of the 18th Rus
sian regiment, which suffered SO Sc
verely at Kinlien-Cheng managed to
escape through the enemy's lines,
and have reached Mukden. These men,
speak in enthusiastic terms of the
manner in which the Japanese treat
the Russian wounded. The Japanese
army doctors, they say, are splendid,
and they personally saw to the com
fort of all the Russian wounded. Each
Russian officer taken prisoner is sup
piled with a separate tent, and is al
lowed to superintend the preparation
of the food for the Russian wounded.
Temporary assistance is given to
the Japanese wounded in spfendidly
arranged field hospitals. About 45O
Russian wounded were carefully at
tended to in the Japanese camp and
the relations between them and the
enemey's troops were excellent, based
says the correspondent, upon the
true comTadeship and friendship of
mutually respecting soldiers" The
Japanese doctors removed the
wounded from the field of battle with
out regard to nationality.
AS it was practically impossible to
remove all the wounded from the
ground to the field hospital without
delay, those whom surgical aid would
most likely cure were taken in hand
first, and the more serious cases were
given first aid in the field. When.
ever a wounded man was discovered,
whether Russian or Japanese, he was
placed on his feet; and If able to
stand unsupported for a few seconds
he was taken on a litter to the hos
pital.
Cruelties were undoubtedly perpe.
trated on the Russian wounded. but
the miscreants were invariably Chin.
ese. who are bitterly anti-Russian. It
Is said to be common remark among
the Chinese, "If the Japanese win in
this war we will send basketfulls of
Russian ears to Pekin."
