OKU AT HSIUNCCYAO
Japanese Occupy City With
out Firing Shot.
USING SHIPS As BASE OF SUPPLIES
Big Battle Reported to Have Been
Fought Northeast of Kaichau.
Foreign Attache Killed by
Russian Rifle Fire.

Russian Rifle Fire.
LONDON, June 23.-Advices from
Tokyo say that division of the Japa-
nese army under General Oku has oc-
cupied Hsiunggyao without opposition.
It is presumed that General Oku is
now advancing to the north by tie way
of Fuchau and the coast road, thus
enabling him to obtain provisions from
the sea.
The japanese army base at Siuyen
is evidently strongly established along
q line from Kaichau to Yentai.
It Is said that big battle has been
fought northeast Of Kaichau.
A Newchwang dispatch says that
while Russian force Of 5000, under
General Kondratsvitch, was traversing
Vafankow ravine, nine miles south
east of Kaichau, it was surprised by
concealed Japanese artillery, who
opened a heavy fire which caused the
Russians loss of nearly 1920 men.
The force was caught in trap, being
unable to get clear Of the ravine.
General Kondratsvitch extricated his
men with great difficulty and led them
to an intrenched position.
Spectators at the battle of Vafang-
ten claim to have seen on one occasion
three horsemen appear on hill, one
of whom, according to a Russian off,
Ger, resembling either an American or
British attache, fell from his horse
when the Russians fired and was evil
IDENTITY killed.
The battle of Vafangtien almost ex-
actly resembled the battle Of Stone
River, near Murfreesboro, Tenn, in
1923, during the American civil war.
The Russians abandoned their guns,
and the Japanese pursued them for
twelve hours, bivouacking at nightfall
in the position held by the Russians on
the preceding day.
After placing outposts the main body
of the Japanese then retired toward
the sea, it is supposed, for the purpose
of obtaining a fresh supply of NUM-
tions, which had been exhausted dur
ing the battle
From reliable source it is reported
that the japanese In the vicinity of
Port Arthur are now entirely inactive
and that the Russians are not concern
ed regarding the situation there, that
in the north being now the most inn
portant factor.
General Kuropatkfn seems omnipres-
ent. It is believed that he has visited
the entire front.
The Japanese fleet is probably CO
operating with General Okus advance
along the coast.
A Chefu report says that while the
Japanese are keeping close watch on
Port Arthur both on land and sea their
advance toward the fortress is not be-
ing pushed so vigorously as during the
early days of June Chinese arriving
from points on the Liautong peninsula
say that firing is not heard as fire.

skirmishes, the result of which they do
not know, occurred on the 18th, 18th

Scarcity Of Suitable Wood Leads Wine
Producers to Adopt New
Materials.

The scarcity of wood suitable for the
purposes of the wine producers of Cali
fornia has led to the manufacture of yes
sells of other materials than wood, says
the Philadelphia Public Ledger. At the
big winery and distillery of the Italian
Swiss agricultural colony at Asti, Cal,
the greater portion of the cooperage is
being changed from wood to cement
lined with glass.
An expert from Italy has arrived to
do the work, and 1t Is now being con-
Quoted with rapidly. Eight Of the larg-
est tanks are being lined with plate
glass about half an inch in thickness
The tanks are square, with rounded
corners and oval tops Cement will be
employed outside the glass interior in
stead Of wood. The glass, to fit the
curvatures, has to be blown to order,
and Is very expensive. The total stor-
age capacity at the Asti warehouse and
winery is 13,250,000 gallons, and the i'm
provement contemplated will greatly in
crease it.

ABBEY MONKS HIDING PLACE
Interesting Archaeological Discovery
Recently Made at Thorney
in Isle of Ely.

An interesting archaeological dis
covery has just been made at Thorney,
in the islel of Ely. A hermitage was
founded there by the Saxons in 665,
and 1t became an important monastic
establishment A second abbey was
built there by Bishop Ethelwood, says
the Pail Mall Gazette, of Winchester.
in the ninth century, and this was re-
placed by a more imposing building at
the end of the eleventh century.
The Thorney abbey of the present
day, used as the parish church, con-
sists of the west front and have of
this third building, and in the course
of the last few days the discovery has
been made Of subterranean passage
leading from the abbey church down
to the river. 1t is 500 feet in length,
1t was probably used by the monks to
obtain their supplies of water and fish.
and, 1t is thought, formed safe hiding
place for the brotherhood during the
Danish invasion, for they escaped the
slaughter which overlook their neigh
bors at Crowland and Peterborough.

How the Animal Trainer Works.

You have a beautiful tlion between
two and three years old-fresh from
his native wilds-that you wish to
make perform. How must you go a.
bout ii.
TO M person and to one only the
wild animal that is to be taught to per-
form, must look for all the comforts of
its life; for the trainer fairly livef with
his animals. He feeds them, he gives
them wafer, and-when ne can-he
them through their PAGES.
Once a day the trainer gives MS
lion about six pounds Of fresh beef or
mutton and u bone. three times a
pay he gives them fresh water, and not
another person goes lear the lion or
looks at him. The meat is pushed in
to the cage with a long pole, but the
lion is forced to come a little way to-
wards the front in order to get 1t. The
distance between the animal and It's
trainer is thus gradually shortened I'M
ill the lion at last comes close to the
man to receive his food and no doubt
looks forward to those visits, which he
has learned invariably means a treat.
After man and beast have thus be-
come, in a degree, acquainted With
each other the lion is changed IN
another cage, where he is kept a fort
night with a continuance of the same
care and attention from his trainer.
At the end of six weeks, perhaps,
when Leo lies asleep near the front of
the cage, there is slipped around his
neck a loose collar to which is attach
ed a chain that will allow the beast
room TO walk about a little, but will
not permit him TO go to the end OF his
cage.
Then a chair is slipped into the cage
The lion Will roar, crouch and spring
toward The chair finding himself re-
strained by the Limitation of his chain,
he will sulk aud growl, but finally set
tie himself 10 watch the chair Alter
Il few days he accepts his new furnl-
ture. Then the trainer, after having
opened the door of the cage two or
three times, goes in and sits down on
the chair. OF course, the lion resents
the presence of the intruder. But the
chain is stout.
Thus by and by Leo accepts the
man, as he had before tolerated the
chair. And now comes the "tlckllsh"
time for the trainer. He must actually
beard the lion in his den, and that,
too, with no chain 10 restrain the
furious animal from springing at his
throat. A lions nose is a portion OF
his anatomy about which the beast Is
extraordinarily sensitive. A sharp
ran over the nose, with a stout stick, Is
ma rvelously effective.
When Captain Bonarita first takes
the chain off a lion he is training, he
carries Two sticks, II in either hand !;
| hut a D the lion with the stick III the
right hand only. This apparently
gives the animal a certain reverent
awe for the stick in the left hand,
which he seems to consider in danger
Of Jumping out to smite him. AS soon
as the king of beasts will permit the
familiarity, the trainer scratch S him
with the stick and therefrom, I'D
some crude way. no doubt, grows up
the idea in the lions mind that sticks
when not snarled at, do not rap the
nose, producing pain, but, on the con-
trary, caress his chin and sides, here
by giving pleasure.-Ruth Everett, IN
the Pilgrim.

Child and Mother.

o mother, my love, if you'll give me your hand
And 60 where I ask you to wander,
I will lead you away to a beautiful land,
This dreamland that's waiting out yonderl
Well walk in the sweet posy garden out there
Where moonlight and starlight are streaming
n the flowers and the birds are filing the
air
With the fragrance and music OF dreaming.
Therell be no little, tired out boy to undress,
No questions or cares to perplex you;
There'n be no little bruises or bumps to ca
ress
Nor patching Of stockings to vex you,
For I'll rock you away on the silver dew
stream
And sing you asleep when you're weary,
n no one shall know Of our beautiful dream
But you and your own little dearie.
And when I am tired I'll nestle my head
In the bosom that's soothed me so often,
And the wide awake stars shall sing in my stead
A song which my dreaming shall soften.
So, mother. my love, let me take your dear
hand,
And away through the starlight we'll wan
der,
Away through the mist to the beautiful land,
The dreamland that's waiting out yonderl

And he meant what he said. He little
dreamed then that she weighed $50
pounds-little cared, perhaps, for love
is reckless and unreasoning. Thornley,
himself, when equipped with an over
coat, a pair of rubbers and his everyday
clothing, tipped the scales at about 100
pounds.
"Do you think you can support me,
Mr.. Thornley," she asked coyly.
s"Support your" repeated the gallant
but rash Thornley, as he rose from his
knees and grasped her hands to begin
the lesson. Support you? Why, I could
support you for-for life, Miss Lake
eide"
ooh, Mr.. Thornley!' she cried,
blushing like a rose. Her eyes fell, and
a moment later she and Thornley, fol.
lowed them. Grasping her by the arms,
Thornley, tugged until the veins stood
out like whipcords on his brow and
finally raised her to her feet again. She
made four desperate strokes with her
wabbling skates, quite unin~tentionally
kicked Thornley's feet out from under
him, and then sat down again with a
vehemence that called forth a cracking
protest from the astonished ice. Thorn
ley picked her up once more. They struck

self, and the habit soon became chronic.
Thornley's brow was beaded with per-
spiration. 1t began to dawn upon him
that she must weigh at least $50 pounds.
When he picked her up for the seventh
time and attempted to guide her wan
dering and irresponsible feet, Unchanged
his mind.
"If she weighs an ounce, she weighs
800p' he thought, with a gasp for
breath. ''This is positively dangerous.
The ice is only about six inches thick,
and there isn't a life preserver within a
mile Of usl"
He paused for a moment to rest the
right arm that had been holding her up
for half an hour and to get the numer-
GUS painful kinks out of his back.
"You are tired, Mr.. Thornley," she
murmured.
"That's-that's right" he painted.
"Are-are you still sure you could
support me for life?' she asked mis-.
chievously.
Support you for life:" he gasped.
"Of course I could if I only had a der
rick"
And that night 1870 pounds of offended
loneliness started for home.
