GRADE MUST BE UNIVERSAL


st. Louis, Sept 24.-As the Interna-
tional Congress of Arts and Sciences
draws to q close, the interest mani
tested In the proceedings increases.
There will be no satisfactory settle
ment of diplomatic rank until all dis
tinctions and privileges are abolished
and a single grade is established in
all the capitals of the world" was the
statement made by former Secretary Of
State John W. Foster, in an address be-
fore the section on diplomacy on 1.-THE
Proper Grade of Diplomatic Repre-
sentatives." Mr.. Foster laid stress on
the Importance of establishing q sys-
tenn of diplomacy which will not sub.
ject representatives to Inconvenience
and even indignity because Of their
lower rank as ministers. He added:
"The late trouble between the United
States and Turkey grew out Of the
fact that the American minister could
not have access to the sultan and
higher officials because he did not pos
sess the rank of ambassador, and the
Turkish government refused to agree
to the appointment and recognition
Of ambassadors with the United
States"

Up Dead from the

Cincinnati, Sept. 24.-At least nine
school girls were suffocated In
vault during the afternoon recess at
Pleasant Ridge public schoolhouse and
a score of others narrowly escaped the
same horrible death. All Of the VIC
tins were from primary grades. On
opposite sides Of the spacious grounds
in the rear of the suburban school
building are two outhouses. At recess
about 80 young girls were in the out
house assigned to them, when the
floor gave way. precipitating them in
the stone walled cesspool IL feet deep
and containing four feet of sewerage.
The farntic struggles Of those who
were on top kept at least nine under
meath the wire until they were dead.
The frame shed over the sewer was
about 20 feet square, without windows,
and had only one narrow doorway, 30
that only one girl escaped falling. She
ran into the school building and told
the teachers what had happened.
Principal T. L. Simmerman and seven
female teachers ran to the rescue.
Principal Simmerman secured lad
der, on which the drenched girls
climbed out, most Of them fainting as
soon as they reached the surface, over
come by fright and sewer gas.
The teachers were soon reinforced
by the entire population Of the sub
urb, the police and fire departments
rendering effective service. Principal
zimmerman finally tainted. Then 9TH
ers lifted out dead bodies until the
death pool was cleared. Those res
cued alive presented such an appear
ance as to make many in the crowd
Of spectators faint.
James Smith, aged IA, a pupil
climbed to the roof Of the schoolhouse
and got the flag, which was made into
rope that rescued several. John
Steinkamp, when his daughter was not
among those brought out alive, entered
the vault and carried out several
bodies, among them that Of his daugh-
ter. Then he tainted. At the same
time there were other parents in the
waiting crowd that tainted, when y
was announced that all Of the living
had been rescued and their childreA
were still missing.
Reports about the floors having given
way last year were denied by the school
trustees. They say that the floors were
repaired during the summer vacation
and nothing wrong was noticed with
the girders. Janitor Smith says that
he had told members Of the board that
the place was not safe. Coroner
Weaver had the wrecked girders pre-
served. 1t is said that the timbers
were found to be rotten and that one
of them was spliced. The girders will
be brought to Cincinnati for examina-
ton a. the inquest.

Kuropatkin Again Trying to Avoid
Battle at Mukden.
JApS OUTNUMBER The RUSSIANS.


st. Petersburg, Sept. A,-Absence OF
detailed reports from the seat OF war,
despite the important character OF
events that are believed to be develop
ing around Mukden, leads to the sup
position that Gen. Kuropatkin may
after all not seriously contest the Japa-
nese advance and that the long-expect-
ed battle at Mukden may turn out to
be merely rear-guard action on a
large scale.
Gen. Sakharoff reports that the jap
anese army is moving from Bentsia-
putze towards Flu pass, a village six
miles northeast Of Mukden and neat
the right bank OF the Hun river. The
river at this point is shallow, and prob
ably for this reason the locality has
been selected by the Japanese for
crossing. If the Japanese gain q foot
hold at Flu pass Gen. Kuropatkin's po-
sition at Mukden will be insecure, as
the Japanese will from thence be able
to threaten the Russian line Of commu-
nications. Flu pass is only 20 miles
north Of Bentisiaputze. but at the
present rate Of progress the Japanese
will probably occupy four or five days
in traversing these 20 miles.
The Russian force south Of Mukden
is believed to consist Of only one army
corps, which is acting as rear guard
and is not intended to effect a serious
resistance to the Japanese.
A dispatch received from Mukden
gives details Of the Japanese positions
a. follows: Gen. Kur0ki has con-
centrated one army with Bentsiaputze
an Bensihu as its radius and his ad-
vance is pushing forward along the
road leading to Fushun and Flu pass.
The advance forces Of two other armies
occupy the Yentai mines and the viii
lagos Of Yental and Sandenu. The
front of these three armies Is protect
ed by an outpost screen, which Chi
nese are not allowed to pass.
Omaya's Base Mt YinkOw.
London, Sept. A.-With an army
which is believed to outnumber greatly
the Russian force, Marshal Oyama be-
gan his forward movement to force an
other great battle with Kuropatkin.
There is every reason to believe the
Japanese are in far better circum-
stances than their enemy. Their base,
Yinkow, is within easy distance OF
Lao Yang and 1t Is known that i'm
mense quantities Of stores and a large
number Of men have been landed there
during the interval since Liao Yang
fell.

MIGHTY PERILOUS TIMES.
Japs Are Reported Attacking Port
Arthur ON Three Sides with In
deAcribable Massacre.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 24.-Telegrams
reached the car at four o'clock this
morning. They concern Port Arthur,
regarding which the greatest anxiety
prevails at court. The Japanese are
now engaged in general assault,
which is more furious than Its pre-
decessors, attacking the town on three
sides simultaneously and employing
their whole forces, being determined
to finish the business. Russian mines
blew up whole battalions. Gen. Fock
especially distinguished himself, d.
recting the fire from the wall, which
the Japanese reached after indescrib-
able massacre.
The whole Of Admiral Togo's and
Vice Admiral Kamimura's squadorns
are aiding the struggle, which, 1t is
feared, will be final. The besieged
forces are fighting as in a furnace, A
perfect storm Of shell is falling on the
town, port and fortresses from the
whole hill and roadstead.

seek out the lambs who have strayed from
the fold, and bring them back with kind
words and helpful expressions rather
than with the blazoning of their weak
nesses from the house-tops. Such methods
of castisation never yet resulted in re-
form-Christ was never noisy and 1t seems
to me that His disciples might do more
good by following His example in this re-
gard than by shouting out the vices of the
few to the disrepute OF the many. No

her sex-as sex-reviled, and reviled
unjustly.

do affirm very strongly that 1t is not
good taste, and that a woman who is
sensitive to the requirements of her posi-
tion and to the honor of her womanhood
who is jealous of her dignity, will do
neither. And 1t Is my experience that the
great majority Of New York women do
not do these things. Mr.. Watterson and

models in their way. They are finely light
ed and the doors close and lock auto
matically.
One Of the features of the bank Is a
gallery over the vault for the accommo-
dation of men who draw money for pay
rolls The gallery is provided with seats
and tables and the representatives of the
corporations can retire to this apartment,
packages.
The basement is another feature of the
bank worthy of special mention. 1t is
perfectly dry and is well ventilated. 1t
embraces the entire area of the bank.
Here are stored the papers, old books,
stationery and other supplies. It will
make as comfortable work room as any
part of the building and in summer will
prove cooler, perhaps, than the main
floor In the basement is a huge vault
for the storage of valuables.
Clerical Force.
The clerical force of the bank is stead
ily increasing. 1t now embraces more
than forty men and it is only a question
of time when the expansion of the bank s
business will require force of double
that number. There is room enough for
more clerks in the large enclosure, but
when the working space becomes con-
gested the gallery can be utilized for
desks. In other words, there is no dam
ger of the bank becoming overcrowded.
A private telephone system has been
installed in the bank, by which each Of
fetal can communicate with any book
keeper or teller without leaving his seat.

What Doctor Dix Thinks.

There is a steady decline OF womanhood
from its old ideals. There Is Its deterior-
alton through copying the ways and In
vading the sphere of men. What can stop
the women preachers, the women agita-
tors, the clamorers for women's rights?
Men use to regard women with such
reverence! When i was a boy all boys of
generous spirit looked up to her She was
not to be criticised. She was on too lofty
a height for that. In these days women
have come down to our own level Once
they were womanly Now they are ceas-
ing to be.
Nowadays they talk like men, they
gamble like men; they smoke, they swear.
they. drink They even dress like men. IL
there is anything men despise, and rightly
1t Is n womanish man. I think the man
nish woman is Just as bad. All this
comes from leaving the womanly things
of life and invading the sphere OF men,
