soldiers habitually speak with con-

troops. The Japs. they say, are good
coolies, but only in that respect are
they excellent; but all the evidence
that has reached the Russian head
quarters as TO the Japanese hospitals
and their medical and surgical ar
rangements generally Is unanimous as
to the excellence of that part OF the
enemy's equipment.
Two wounded men of the Eleventh
Russian regiment. which suffered so
severely 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

Russian officer taken prisoner Is sup
piled with separate tent. and is al

PHILADELPHIA June To-day
is Flag day, the one hundred and
twenty-seventh anniversary Of the
enactment by congress that the flag
should consist of Is stripes, alternate
red and white. and a union of stars,
one for each state, in a blue field. The
American Flag association, which
takes this day under it's particular
care, recently sent out a circular
broadcast through the country urging
patriotic societies, school children and
the public generally to observe the
day with appropriate ceremonies. and
to see that the flag should greet the
rising and salute the setting sum"
1t is but natural that the day
should be more generally observed in
Philadelphia than in other cities, for
It was in this city. in a house still
standing at 23s Arch street, that
Betsy Ross made the first flag. The
house was today visited by delega-
lions of school children ana others
and during the forenoon patriotic ex-
ercises were held under its roof.

The present visit of Mgr. Satolli to
the United States is the third that
he has made. He came first as the
papal representative to the Catholic
congress and celebration of the GEN.

November, 1880. His next visit was
in October, 1892, when he represent

hundred thousand visitors within her
gates and more arriving on every
train; bands of men clad in gray parad-
ing through the streets, the crash OF
bands and the cheers of thousands who
line the thoroughfares; enthusiastic
welcomes and equally hearty responses;
the latch-string on the outside and
the big pot in the little one; that is
the situation DIN Nashville today on
the opening of the fourteenth annual
reunion OF the United Confederate
Veterans.
The great macs of the visitors had
arrived by noon today and the rail-
roads estimated their number at not
far from the 10000 mark. The elabo-
rate plans for the reception of the
visitors worked faultlessly, and, though
the crowd is perhaps larger than was
ever entertained in Nashville before,
every man, woman and child from
abroad is assured of bounteous hospi-
tally during their stay in the city.
The downtown streets are fairly
ablaze with crimson bunting. all the
side streets are decorated and so are
most of the residences in the city.
