PATRIOTISM OF JAPANESE.
From Empress Down to Peasant Girl
All Make Sacrifices to Help
Relief Fund.

Societies and associations have been
organized in Japan 10 relieve the fam
lilies of the fighting men, and every one
makes certain contributions to the relief
fund. Some men contribute money or
goods, some their labor, and most of the
lint and bandage used for the wounded
are the works Of women, from the en-
press down to the peasant girl, writes
Nobushige Amenomori, in Atlantic.
Little boys and girls willingly foreg0
their daily sweetmeats, and give the
small moneys thus saved to the relief
societies. A boy II years old in country
school made one day contribution OF
two yen. 1t was thought too much for =
country boys gift. The school-teacher
and the alderman of the village suspects
ed the money might have been given the
lad by his parents to satisfy his vanity;
in which case it should be admonished
against. An inquiry was accordingly
made, and brought out the fact that the
boy had actually earned the money for
the purpose by devoting his play hours
to the making of straw sandals. Even
some criminals working in prisons have
made several applications to contribute
their earnings to the funds, though
their wishes have not been complied
with. In every village compact has
been made that those remaining at home
should look after the farms of those at
the front, so that their families may not
be disappointed of the usual crops.
Since the outbreak of the war the gov
ernment's bonds have been twice issued
at home, and each time the subscription
more than trebled the amount called for,
the imperial household taking the lead
by subscribing 100000 yen. Thus the
hardships of the war are cheerfully borne
by every man, woman and child in the
land.

DISCUSS APPROPRIATIONS.
President and Cabinet Consider the
Amounts Needed by the Several
Departments Next Year.

Washington, Oct. 15.-Estimates Of
appropriations for the several depart
ments of the government were under
consideration Friday by the president
and his cabinet. The meeting was at
tended by Secretaries Hay, Morton,
Hitchcock and Metcalf, Attorney Gen.
eral Moody and Postmaster General
Wynne. Practically the entire time Of
the meeting was devoted to a discus
sion of department appropriations.
The estimates of all the departments
have not been completed yet, but ap-
proximate figures were presented Fri
day by those heads of departments who
attended the meeting. Secretary
Hitchcock expressed the belief that the
estimates for the interior department
would be about 100000 less than
they were last year. Some of the 9TH
er departments indicated nearly cor
responding reduction in the figures for
expenses.
Some other departmental business
was considered at the meeting, but no
statements concerning it were made
public.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
Eagles and TURKEYS.

On the farm of J. Kerr, Franklin,
black eagle launched with tremendous
force upon flock of turkeys. The old
gobbler-a big bronze-however, was
there to receive him. aud met his onset
with the courage of a bulldog. Again
and again the eagle rose and swooped
down, only to be met with the most
consummate address and skill on the
part of 1.-THE turkey. The. eagle then
tried it on the level, but here, too, he
was distinctly outclassed, his talons
being utterly useless against the short
and powerful wings of the gobbler.
Just then the eagle thought it best to
beat retreat, for the old hen, having
hid her brood, was coming for him
with every pound of steam on that her
valves would carry and level full OF
fight. There was furious tempered
gobbler for awhile, as he walked back
and forth, vowing he would smash all
the eagles in sight

The Color Of Hair.

From the color of a mans hair may
be learned a good deal in regard to his
intellectual ability, says professor
who has for some months been closely
studying the subject. School boys with
chestnut hair, he maintains, are likely
to be more clever than any others, and
will generally be found, at the head of
the class, and in like manner girls with
fair hair are likely to be far more studi-
Gus and bright than girls with dark hair.
In mathematics and Rotations these
boys and girls, he asserts, especially ex-
eel. On the other hand, he says that
boys and girls with brown hair are
most likely to attain distinction through
their individuality and style. and that
those with red or auburn hair do not
often excel in any respect.

them from profiting by this success,
and as this body was separated from
the rest of the troops Kuropatkin or
dered it to retire. The dispatch reit-
crates that the Russians suffered
heavy losses, but no details have yet
been given out
Beginning of Bloody Work.
A later dispatch from Gen. SAX
haroff, sent at six o'clock Friday
morning, explains more of the opera
tons of October IL and Is, from which
it appears that the Russian center was
due north of the Yentai mines, the
right running west a short distance
beyond the railroad and the left
sweeping southeastward toward Ben
sihu. The real bloody work did not
begin until Wednesday when the Jap
anese made a series of determined at
tacks on Sialiuhedzy, about seven
miles north of Yentai, but the Rus
slams held off their assailants. In the
meantime, however, the extreme right,
comparatively lightly held, was forced
back, thus compelling Kuropatkin to
slightly draw back his line above YEN
tai in order to preserve it's alignment.
On the extreme left, after a deter
mined resistance, the Russians sue
ceeded in carrying the rocky heights
and Hua pass, north of Bensihu, but
the arrival of Japanese reinforce
ments, Kuropatkin says, made it i'm
ho RI
advantage here and as the left was
nov too far advanced it also was
withdrawn some distance.
Losses May Reach Thousands.
Reports from the left, however, only
bring the situation up to Thursday aft
ernoon. A high officer of the general
staff said that the situation while crit
ical was not desperate. Kuropatkin
is keeping his head and acting eau
tiously, as is shown by his withdrawal
of both wings in the hope that the Jap
anese assaults will exhaust themselves.
He says the slaughter was frightful. No
estimate of the losses is yet possible,
but they run far into the thouands.
The losses were especially heavy on
the Russian left and center. In q
single regiment out of over 100 off,
GERS only eight escaped. The same au-
thority stated that no information had
been received here tending to confirm
the report that the Japanese are likely
to cut off a force on the Russian left.
Nither is the threatened enveloping
movement against the Russian right
greatly feared, Kuropatkin having a
large number of Cossacks on his right.
held in leash to meet just such a con-
tingency 1t is now evident that
Kuropatkin's plan was to press his
advance not directly from the front
but toward the left for the purpose of
getting in the rear of Oyama's tri-
angle,

OPENING OFAUNlQUE BUILDING
A Monument of Wise and Successful Newspaper
Advertising.

In his address to Publishers at the
Battle Creek banquet Mr.. Post likened
the growth of a modern commercial
enterprise to the growth Of an apple-tree.
Good seed, plenty of work and water
are needed, but the tree will not bear
apples without sunshine.
The sunshine to the commercial plant
is publicity secured by advertising.
1t is impossible even with the heaviest
advertising to make a success unless the
article has merit of high order. Merit
is the good tree and sunshine makes
the apples grow. A good salesman
who knows how to talk with his pen can
