and as important as they may be,
have been to the advantage of the
japanese. 1t cannot be accurately
ascertained as to the amount of injury
they inflicted ON the Russians in the
sharp engagement at Port Arthur,
but that it was greater in extent than
the Russians admit, can safely be in
ferred
The first and the brilliant dashes
are over, and steady work may be
looked for, with hard fighting and
stubborn contests over each inch
of ground. Meanwhile the question
continues to be importanl; "Will
the conflict be confined to the present
contending parties, or will 1t in
volve the world?'

CHILD BURNED
Its Dress Took Fire While Stand
ing by a Redhot Stove.

A little daughter of Jack Hen
son, farmer, who lives near Tuck,
Daviess county, was probably fatally
burned Monday afternoon. The child
was alone in room and was stand.
ing by a redhot stove. When her
dress took fire she screamed and her
mother ran to her, but could not ex-
tingush the flames until two-thirds OF
the body OF the little one was a blis-
ter. DR.. Coke was summoned. He
said that 1t was probable that the
child would die, but that there was a
slight chance for her recovery.

TEN DAYS OF WAR.

The first ten days of the war have
passed with remarkable events. The
japanese have shown themselves to
be fighters, capable of discipline and
remarkably quick to grasp opportu-
mites, while the Russians have shown
themselves to be retrogratlng, or they
are totally unprepared for the con-
fict in which they are engaged-a
conflict brought about by themselves.
The world so views it and the opin-
ion of the world is usually not very
seriously wrong in such matters.
But the results, such as they are,

MARCUS A. HANNA.

Mckinley passed with stainless hands
and clean heart into the mysterious
beyond. And now hls beloved friend,
whose unbroken fidelity could not be
shaken by conflict or calamity, sets
out ION the long journey alone" and
if beyond the tangled ways of fate
and change there be place where
loyalty is crowned by reunion, these
two are hand in hand, and their paths
will part no more.
A million hearts went out in prayer
that the shadow light not fall just
now, and million men who loved
and honored the man attended every
fleeing breath, in spirit at least, hop
ing death would at last relent. He
passed out calmly after struggle as
desperate us ever determined spirit
waged against the last enemy and
in his passing took with him the pa
triot's supreme reward, the love and
the confidence of his fellowmen.
1t Is too soon to attempt predictions
at this hour as to what this mans
death will mean to his peaple and to
his party, for the first thought is that
of profound grief at his passing, and
sympathy for those who feel this loss
deepest. 1t is enough to say that his
place cannot be filled; that the enter
prise of his life that made for nation
al welfare and individal good were
vast and constant, and that he who es-
says to take up his work must needs
be both a patriot and Humanitarian.
This man was calm in the face of
conflict, serene in the presence Of
danger, brave and erect when others
covered and fled, manly and frank
every hour of his broad and useful
life; but above these and above all,
were the unsullied honesty and the
uncompromising loyalty of the man,
who possessed nothing of power or
prestige or wealth that he would not
ay at the feet of those he loved and
those who held his confidence.
Through two long, fierce, bitter ma
tional campaigns he was tested as if
BY fire. The butt of ridicule, of cal
umny, of all the Vaccinations Of po-
litical strife, of political hatred, he
was one of the most attractive and
vet the most modest of all the great
spirits that figured in those contests,
and he rose above them in such
manner as to disarm calumny and
turn bitter vituperation into praise.
And he came out of these conflicts
uuscared, and men learned the pro-
found lesson that the honest man is
equipped against all attack and
proof against all weapons.
He did not long for glory, for,
Iieke Cesar, kingly crowns had been
presented him, which, also, like Ce-
sar, he refused, but he had reached
that exalted plane in the accomplish
ments Of single life where he had
experienced the sweetest fruition of
the hopes of every loyal soul, the ele-
walton of his dearest friend to d Sci
lottier than any throne, and his part
in the struggles of those nome ntous
years has made history and enshrined
him forever in the hearts of those
who revere d the martyred President.
1t will not be necessary to build
any monument to Hanna-his single
heartedness, his candor, his loyalty to
friend, frankness to foe, and his pa
triotism will outshine the costiest
shaft of bronze or gold.-Ex.

He Paid for the Horse.

The concensus Of opinion Of those
who pursued and located one Fred
Barrett, arrested on the charge OF
horse stealing, is that he had. mar
row escape from "going over the
road. The facts in the case, as
given to the Herald, are as follows;
Barrett took strong fancy to .
horse owned by a Mrs. Fletcher, and
after some persuasion succeeded in
borrowing the animal, with the dis
tinct understanding that he was to
return the animal in good condition
to the owner at certain stipulated
time. Shortly after Barrett got the
horse in his possession, whether or
not he sought customer is not
known, but that he found one in the
person of Mrs Dakin, mother-i -in-law
of Attorney G. w. Lamson, is sure
and positive. Through Mr.. Lamson,
Mrs. Dakin paid Barrett $50 for the
horse, and for the time being became
the owner while Barrett in the
meantime took himself off
!, Mrs. Fletcher, thinking that Bar
rett had had the use of her horse
long enough, instituted inquiries to
ascertain what had become of both
of them, which resulted in Barrett's
being located and arrested by the
Z sheriff at Weiser and brought back
( to the scene of action. The papers

He then lighted a lamp and secured
an old file twelve inches long He
held the file over the oil blaze until
it was red hot and began burning the
fery letters of mans name upon
her. Smoke and the fumes OF
the burning flesh filed the house.
He started on the bare shoulder and
wrote down the arm to the wrist.
The letters were not small, being
two to three inches In size, and ihe
name, with thirteen letters, was
spelled out in full. Between eacf
letter he would stop and reheat the
instrument. Nearly half the nigh
