win, Of Hampton Falls, N. H., whose
recovery furnishes convincing evil
dence of the power Of the new remedy.
Mr.. Janvrin was attacked about
three years ago by what he at first
thought was rheumatism. He did the
usual thing-applied liniments to his
legs, which were the parts affected
and got temporary relief. But the
trouble always returned and, each
time, with greater severity. He real.
lied that the disease was gaining q
flrmer hold Of his system all the while
and after he had endured the pain and
discomfort for more than a year, he
began to consult physicians in great
anxiety.

PENSION ORDER WON'T
COST MUCH, SAYS WARE

Topeka, Kan, May 14.-Eugene F.
Ware, commissioner Of pensions, says
that many APPLICATIONS for pensions
have been filed under the mistaken
idea that the new age order means
that If the claimant is already re-
ceiving a pension and2is over 81, he Is
entitled to another.
The number of applicants so far
who will have their pensions raised 81
a month is probably 10000, he says
and adds:
The amount which this order will
cost the government has been greatly
exaggerated. The death rate among
the old soldiers will keep the pension
roll in such shape that the increase ir
pension payments will not be percep.

STORY OF LIFE
IN PORT ARTHUR
Danchenko, a Russian Correspond
ent, Tells Of Recent Events {.
There.

Liao-yang, May 14.-Nemirovtch
Danchenko, popularity known as the
Russian Archibald Forbes, now in the
service of the Associated Press, has
just arrived here from Port Arthur
and furnishes the following chronicle
investment Of that fortress. Dam
chenko escaped from the beleaguered
city by the last train.
From Thursday, May 5, the power
full fleet Of the enemy's cruisers, the
Adsuma, Asama, Idsumo, Iwate and
another, the name Of which is un-
known, together with the flagship MI
Hatsuez, Asahi Yashima and the Full,
remained constantly in sight Of Port
Arthur, departing every night and re-
turning at daylight. The Japanese
were watching to see If we intended to
interfere with their landing farther
north.
Our communications with the north
were broken on Thursday, and the
following day the telegraph office In
Port Arthur refused to accept our
messages.
japanese cavalry reconnoitered the
peninsula from the north to ascertain
whether we were safely imprisoned.
It seems that the sole defense Of the
Russian stronghold is General Kon-
dratenko. He knows no rest, and he
is ceaseless in his activity. The utmost
vigilance prevails turnout the fortif-
cations, and the energy betrayed by
every one from highest to lowest Is
marvellous. No one is now admitted
to Port Arthur.
The number Of Chinese seeking
work on the Notifications and as serv.
ants is more numerous than ever. Al
long as there is rice there will bt

vince Of Fu-chow, northwest Of wes
on the Liao-tung peninsula, has an
nounced that he will behead all the
natives in our service very soon, and
| that he will burn Wa-fandian, one o.
| the neighboring towns which hal
shown Itself friendly to the Russians.
Beyond Cape Terminal the Japan
| csc are landing immense stores of rice
and siege guns. The surrounding
country is occupied by japanese

Japanese took off his tunic, rolled i
up and placed it under his head as I
pillow and then reverently crossed TIL
dead mans arms over his breast.
| On Saturday, May Z, decided, b.
hook or crook, to join the Manchurial
army at Liao-yang, it being plainl,

very last thing the Republican state COM

puts forth the following statement IN reply

whelm It's authors, and their whole ticket
and system in defeat and banishment
from their places in the government next

nice old gentleman naturally, who when
be went to the Rome Of the Republican
ring rule began to do as the Romans do
soaked the state in his charges for SER
vices on the board Of agriculture and the
cattle commission.
These charges were verbatim ct liter.
atm the official figures from the state au-
ditor's and treasnrer's reports, certified to
be correct by the inspector Of finance.
They have stood In these reports for two
years without denial OF effort at explana-
ton by Mr.. Bell or anyone else. And
when given to the people Just as they
stood, the Republican committee waits un-
I'll the last days before election, when it
thinks 1t is beyond reach Of answer, to
perpetrate what, II 1t is not a deliberate
Justification, Is an exhibition of stupidity
such as six year old school boy ought to
be spanked for; because a half hours ex-
animation Of the auditors report, la the
way Of verification Of items, reveals the
/ truth with certainty.
The charges were that while holding
these positions on the board Of agriculture
and cattle commission the latter being
the same thing as the former under anoth-
er name and with additional duties Mr..
Bell collected for per diem services in the
fiscal years ending June 30:
1901 S1496.27 at $500 per day or fol
367 l.S days 36T l-3 days
1902 S1469.25 at $500 per day OF fol

half more days than there we're in them
including the l04 Sundays and 10 or more

The Committee reply says the "Au'

showing this in the classification Of pay
ments and that while Mr.. Bell received
this amount Of money, S2965 62 in the two
years part Of it, viz. Sl357.2l was not
for salary or per diem payment but for Of
fetal expenses. The detailed list Of or
ders given on pages Is to SO Of the Au-

conclusively the falsehood of their state
ment. IL shows that Mr.. Bell was given
