RUsKiN's KINDNESS OF HEART
Impuisive Generosity Characteristic OF
Great Writer,

One day, walking near Radley, his
attention was caught by a group Of
little girls playing in the road and ne
went and talked to them. One of them
specially attracted his attention lie
asked her why she was playing in the
dust. Had she no garden at home?
Did she love flowers? What was her
name? And she replied modestly with
wonder in her eyes. On reaching
home he gave orders to his solicitor
to look out for and buy cottage with
a garden in Radley and have a deed of
gift made out in the little girls name,
which was done accordingly, and she
full OF wonder, with her astonishcd
parents, entered at once into posses
sion of it.-Ruskin in Oxford.

Two Arrogant Nations.

Japanese call their country Nip
pom" or suns origin, indicating its
position in the extreme east. But
when they speak of the whole empire
they call it "Dai Nippon" which
means Great Nippon" 1t is a not un.
interesting reflection that off the east
ern and western boundaries of the
greatest mass of land in the world
there exists an Insignificant group of
Islands, inhabited in each case by a
people of very mixed origin and very
marked characters, each of which ex.
presses its defiance of that geograph-
ical insignificance by the same means

Steam Traction Anniversary.

Feb. ID was the centennial of the
use Of steam traction on railroads.
1t was only a five-ton moving engine
running over the Merthyr Tydfl
course. Its inventor was Richard
Trevithic, Cornishman. 1t could
draw fifteen tons at rate of five
miles an hour. 1t had an eight-inch
cylinder and toothed wheels, which
caught in notched rails and helped 1t
over hard places in the track. Only
few trips were made by it. for the
experiment was not commercially
profitable.

Old British Warships.

What is done with those warships
which, becoming obsolete have to be
disposed of at alarming sacrifices" is
one OF those questions few ordinary
persons could answer, says London
Tit-Bits. OF course the most profita-
BILE way would be to sell them to for
eign countries, such as the South
American republics, and Turkey, Spain,
and China might even, be occasional
customers.
But for obvious political reasons
such thing is never done: indeed, 40
stern is the governments determine
tion not to run the risk of our navy's
Ineffective ships falling into foreign
hands that in every case it is stipu-
lated that they shall be broken up in

EMoRV's PRESIDENT AT WESLEY
Preached Two Interesting Sermons
to Large Congregations.

Rev. DR.. ]. L. Dicky, president of
Emory College, delivered two sermons
at Wesley Monumental Church yester-
day, the first, that of the morning,
on education. and that at night on
opportunities. The latter he founded
on the story of the healing of Naa-
man by the Prophet Elisha.
DIR. Dlcky told OF the opportunities
that Naaman had had of bringing his
people to the worship of the true God.
but how he had failed to take advan-
tage of them through a desire to hold
to the altar OF God with one hand,
and on to his epaulettes with the
other"
The application of this story was
that opportunities appear in the daily
life OF every class to prove By their
acts or by their influence on those of
others their desire to further the cause
Of the religion and that such oppor-
tunities should not be neglected.

CONFIRMATION OF THE

Destruction of the Variag and Korietz.
 Tokio, Wednesday, Feb. 1o.-The de- struction of the Russian cruiser Varlag and the gunboat Korietz at Chemulpo on Tuesday is officially confirmed, but details are lacking. Admiral Uriu, commanding the Japanese squadron, sent a cable dispatch to the navy de- partment saying that the two Russian vessels weighed anchor at noon, steam ed down the bay, and encountered the Japanese fleet while rounding an island nine miles from Chemulpo. It is not known which side first opened fire, but the exchange lasted thirty-four min utes.
 The Russian ships withdrew to Che mulpo. The Korietz exploded about 4:3O o'clock. It is not clear how the Variag was destroyed. The loss of life and the effect of the shells on the Rus sians are unknown. It is possible that the Russian crews aided in the destruc- ton of their vessels to avoid capture and annihilation.
 The Japanese did not lose man. and their ships were not injured. The names or the JdpdueSc SAlpo 1Ac WitA- held for strategical reasons, The Rus sian crews, it is reported, surrendered to the Japanese at Chemulpo. Japan is elated by it's success in the engage ment.
 It is reported that two Russian bat tleships and one cruiser were destroyed during the torpedo attack at Port Ar thur on Monday night. The navy de- partment does not confirm the report that the Japanese fleet is still off Port Arthur.
 Advices of a general naval engage ment are hourly expected. The success of Japan on the sea would carry enor- nous advantage and practically decide the war On paper the fleets at the opening of the war were almost equal, although the Japanese are confident that their personnel is superior They say that drawn battle would be really a Japanese victory, on account of Rus sia's lack of facilities to dock and re- pair her larger craft.
