THE BANNER STILL OURS
For Sixth Time Redwood County Schools

School Fund.
Supt. Race Gets Report Awarding SIPS
Each to AZ Rural School
Districts.

For the sixth time in succession
has Redwood county taken the BAN
ner and won first place for having
within her boundaries the largest
number of rural schools drawing
aid from the state, and as a result
the rural schools meeting the re-
quirements of the state will receive
90, SO of state money to assist them
in paying salaries of teachers and
incidental expenses, while seven
semi-graded schools will receive
$3.50 each, or total of 81, 100, while
three graded schools will receive
$3.50 each and two high schools
Lamberton and Redwood Falls
will receive 81, 500 each. In each
case the money received this year
will be trihe less than the figures
given above except in the case of'
the graded schools to the.
fact that the Legislative appropria<-
tion was not large enough to pay
the full amount, but the 1904 session
will pass deficiency bill 50 that
each school and each district will.
eventually secure the full amount
they have SO nobly earned.
When Supt. Race received the
news from the department Of public
instruction early last week he was
naturally elated. New restrictions
were placed on the rural schools
desiring to get into the class early
this year, and when they were
placed the indications were that
there would be parceptible falling
off all along the line. II required

With no guns of the enemy any longer
able to reply to them, this smashing
bombardment was designed to prepare
the way for an infantry assault by
shattering the nerves and breaking
down the defenses Of the helpless re-
cipients of this mass OF lead.
BY quarter past 8, when the gen
eral artillery bombardment had lasted
tor about five hours, and as the twen-
ty-fve minutes the guns had been
pouring in shells from close range to
which there was and could be no re-
ply. the Japanese infantry closed and
severe fighting took place for just
three quarters of an hour. That was
the time required for the Japanese to
storm the works and position and to
occupy the whole line from end to end.
We know little as yet of the losses
or captures on either side during
these historic events, but eventually
the victory was as complete and decis-
i've as, for the number engaged, 1t
could be.

Views Of Military Experts.

London, May 2.-General Kuroki's
official dispatches. specially tele-
graphed in full from Toxic, give a
clear picture Of the sequence of events
though the decisive result was not
reached till Sunday morning, about
a. m.
The fighting appears to have been
carried on with only a short intermis-
sion ever since Tuesday. On the lat
ter day the guards division made a
successful attack on one of the islands
in the Yalu In order to enable the
bridge to be constructed from the
mainland on the left or Japanese bank
so as to shorten the passage to the fur
ther bank. Part of the second division
was also placed on this island to be
ready to reinforce guards as soon as
the further bank had been taken.
A long preliminary artillery duel. ac-
cording to British generals reading
of the dispatches, now seems to have
taken place, during which the Rus
slams, firing at great range, did con-
siderable mischief both to the works
which were being carried on on the
island and on the mainland.
The Russians appear to have been
densely massed, for we are told that

on four miles of ground. This, then,
was doubtless the situation.
On Sunday morning at dawn the
Russian artillery fire completely sub
dued every point of vantage and
found the Russian works occupied by
well trained skirmishing forces OF the
Japanese. SO that no Russian could
show his head above the works with.
out being shot, and every Russian Off
Ger who showed himself in order to
encourage his men being picked off.
Meanwhile the fire was being thus
kept under. The Japanese army In
increasing numbers crossing on the
doomeu "impregnable defenses." In
particular they were creeping round to
the north SO as to be able to seize the
commanding ground Of the present ar
tillery. from whence to enfilade the
defenses and throw their terrible
shells into the masses OF crowded Rus

The final report from General Kur-
oki gives the rapid end on Sunday. At
daybreak on Sunday morning the ar.
tiliery opened on ,ChiW Tien Cheng. and

the capture or the fortified ridge east
OF Port Arthur was converted by the
Russian tactics into a repulse. redcSn-
ed in part by the wonderful fighting
qualities Of the japanese infantry. The
artillery practice was beyond criticism,
and the spectacle was splendid and
appalling, though the amount Of dam
age done 10 the forts was doubtful.
The japanese casualties from the 18th
to the oath were $4,000. The centre
division alone lost 5000, and a single
regiment lost 25OO Only six officers
and 200 men of this regiment were left
after the fight.
Heavy casualties marked this haz-
ardous attempt to take a strong mod
ern fortress byassault after afew days
Investment. General Nogi was aware
that his army was needed in the north,
and the troops flushed with previous
victories, were anxious to make tho
attempt Success meant the immediate
fall Of Port Arthur, which great
achievement would release the besieg-
ing army. which for months had been
sapping the strength Of the positions.
The ability Of General Stoessel and the
determined spirit Of the Russians had
been underestimated. and the expert
ment was never repeated.
The pioneers suffered heavy casual
ties in cutting entanglements. After
the failure of the regulation devices for
removing wires. the pioneers We're sent
to attach ropes to posts to which en-
tanglements were attached, and troops
in the trenches pulling upon the ropes,
dragging posts and wires away. This
worked satisfactorily until the Rus
slams began the use of bracing wires.
Then pioneers advanced and fell as
though killed close to the entangle-
ments, and remained motionless until.
unobserved, they could work along on
their backs under the wires, which
they cut with long shears. AS a result
of this expedient the Russians made
certain that all we're dead who fell
near the entanglements. The latest ex-
pedient was a steel shield covering the
face and body. suspended from the
shoulders OF the pioneers, from behind
which the cutters were used Dynamite
bombs were used by the Russians
against the Japanese trenches and ad-
vance works. For assaulting forts.
where it was Impossible to throw
bombs. wooden mortars were made
bound with bamboo. These were car
ried by the soldiers. and with them
bombs were thrown from so to 100
yards These were the most effective
OF the many devices tried by the Jap.
anese.
In order TO recover the wounded,
when possible, volunteers crawled from
the trenches at night and worked along
on their stomachs, pulling the wounded
slowly TO cover by the heels. Many OF
the wounded were not recovered.
