highly proud OF it.
Now there are these two curious touches Of
human nature working the secret springs OF
this dialogue. Neville Landless is already
enough impressed by Little Rosebud to feel
indignant that Edwin brood Gar below herr

is already enough impressed by Helena, to

put him out of the way entirely.
However, the last remark had better be an
aswered. So says Edwin:

Memorial Services.

The Woman's Relief Corps,
the auxiliary of the Grand Army
of the Republic, has issued the
following general orders for Me-
mortal Day services, to be held
throughout the state. The bull
letin is issued from the head
quarters in Toledo, Oregon, by
command of Rose M. Schenck,
department president, and Ina
Sturdevant, department secretary.
The exercises in this city will be
under the direction of Ellsworth
Relief Corps.
Another year with swift and
silent footsteps has sped away,
passed into niche in the archives
of Time, and the coming of
another Memorial Day tenderly
reminds every loyal American
citizen of the sacred obligation
resting upon each one, the obi
CATION to hold in grateful remem
brance the soldiers, whose patriot
ism in the hour of need saved us
free and undivided country,
whose blood dyed the sod of many
battlefield and who today are
sleeping their last long sleep in
the narrow, windowless palaces of
the dead.
To this day Our comrades turn
with ever saddened hearts and
forget not the brave hoyish faces
that fell by their sides, whether
they are sleeping beneath the
northern pines or southern palms
or under the blue sun-hecked
waves of the ocean. While we
so willingly help to strew the
flowers above those who have
answered to the last roll call, let
us not, in our privilege as an
auxiliary, forget the living heroes,
but let us bring to them the per-
fume of sweet flowers and sweeter
thoughts, and scatter roses and
lilies and ''forget-me-nots" along
their pathway.
Let us bring to the observance
of this day all our tenderness,
and make it more sacred and
more holy, not only that the
faithful may be encouraged and
inspired anew, but that others
outside our ranks may be drawn
to see and hear and made to feel
its influence.
The members of the Woman's S
Relief Corps will see that flowers
are prepared for the decoration of
all veterans graves within their
reach and be ready to do their
part in the ceremony for the
"Unknown Dead" and ''Our
Soldiers, Sailors and Marines. :"
Each auxiliary Corps will be
especially helpful and assist the
Post, not only in observing
Memorial Day but also by at
tending services in a body on the
Sabbath preceding.

and twelve other men from this district
last night was planned by members of
the Mine Owners Association and Cit
liens Alliance, and was carried out
under their direction. The FL Paso,
Indicator, Findley and other large mines
were closed down when the day shift
stopped work and the miners OF both
day and night shifts were requested
to assemble in Cripple Creek, as trouble
was brewing. A report had been in
circulation that several hundred de-
ported union men were returning to
the camp in body and it had been
determined to drive them away again.
should they come. This report proved
to be groundless. However. other work
had been laid out for the 2000 or more
miners who swarmed into town and
acting under orders given by Leading
citizens they proceeded to round up"
the Federation attorneys, employees OF
the Inter-M Mountain Mercantile Com
pany's store and others who have open
ly expressed sympathy with the West
ern Federation of Miners, and escort
them beyond the city limits.
During the entire proceedings the
Sheriff of Teller County and the Mayor
and City Marshal of Cripple Creek were
out of town. Under Sheriff L. T. Par
sons and Deputy Thomas Underwood
attempted to control the mob, but were
easily overpOwered. Many Of the depu-
ties who have been regularly employed
in the district since the riots early in
June, it is alleged, were active as lead
ers of the mob.
City Marshal Charles N. Crowder ar
rived from Victor while the looting Of
the Inter- Mountain COmpany's store
was in progress and essayed in vain
to stop the destruction of property. The
store is completely wrecked and the
entire stock, valued at several thousand
dollars, destroyed or stolen.
Sheriff Edward F. Bell arrived from
Denver after the mob had finished its
work and took measures for the pro-
lection of the prisoners in Jail He
said to-day that he had no intention
of asking the Governor to send troops
to the district. He had advised Pres
ident Meyer and Secretary Haywood
of the Western Federation of Miners,
he said, not to carry out their an
nounced purpose of sending the de-
ported miners back to this camp, as
he would be powerless to protect them.

ALL BATrLEsH1ps DISABLED.
Russia Has Only One Cruiser Un-
damaged at Port Arthur.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Impor-
tant advices have been received by the
Navy Department from American
naval attaches in the Far East re-
garding the condition of affairs at
Port Arthur. Lieutenant Newton Nc
Gully has reached Tientsin, having
left Port Arthur last week, and has
reported to the Navy Department that
of the five battleships in the Port
Arthur roadstead, ali are disabled,
leaving only one cruiser and ten tor
pedo-boat destreyers in efficient con-
dition to fight. Lieutenant McCully,
1T is said, formed the opinion before
leaving Port Arthur that the sea-
worthy cruiser and torpedo-boat de-
stroyers would soon have to resort to
their only hope of escaping capture
by making a dash out of the road
stead into the teeth of Admiral Togo's
fleet.
Lieutenant McCully, several DAYS
ago, cabled the Navy Department that
he was about to leave Port Arthur.
The intimation was given here that he
considered the fall of the fortress i'm
minent and believed that the safest
place for noncombatants, even though
they were naval attaches. was at some
other point in the zone of hostiIities.

JAPANS GUNNERS END GALLANT NOVIKS CAREER
Tremendous Conflict Is Wagng at
Port Arthur and Victory Hangs
in the Balance.

CHEFU, Aug %, noon.-The first
detailed news of the general assault on
Port Arthur indicates that tremen-
oous conflict is waging and that victory
is hanging in the balance.
Chinese who left Port Arthur yester-
day and arrived here to-day state that
the japanese, by making desperate
charges, which were reinforced by an
artillery fire from Shushiyen and
Louisa Bay, swept from the north into
the Pigeon Bay territory and drove the
Russians back from the main forts.
The ground being comparatively fiat
IN this vicinity, the Japanese were un-
able to hold it in the face of the Rus
sian artillery fire and they retired
northward, an eighth of a mile beyond
the zone of fire.
The Chinese declare that the Japan
ese captured one important fort located
on the Itzshan hills, midway between
the west seacoast and the railway, on
a line drawn approximately from a
point midway between Pigeon and
Louisa bays.
Inc hghting resulting in the capture
OF TINS fort was very severe. The posi-
tlon was first subjected to a lombard
ment or more than forty-eight hours
Then the japanese infantry charged
and compelled the Russians to retire.
The Russian artillery then directed a
neaVy flre on the spot, compelling the
Japanese In their turn to retire.

TENACITY OF DEFENDERS.
Russia Wonders How Long Her War
riorS Can Hold Out.

Russia Wonders How Long Her War
riOrS Can Hold Out
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. %, 4:5O a.
m.-The latest reports from Port Ar
thur indicate that the garrison there is
holding out with wonderful tenaeity in
the face of persistent desperate as
saults. The only question is how long
any body of troops can withstand such
awful punishment and whether the
garrison in the fortress can outlast the
japanese ammunition and men.
The report that thirty regiments have
been drawn from General Oku to
strengthen the attackers is believed to
indicate that the Japanese southern
army is in desperate straits, and seems
TO show that the Japanese have not
enough men to prosecute simultaneous
campaigns Of great magnitude in the
north and south.
The report that the Novik has been
sunk has not yet been published here.
II 1t is true it will be greatly felt, for
the gallant cruiser, which has been fire.
quently mentioned in dispatches, has
endeared herself to the whole nation
by her tireless activity at Port Arthur
and it has been greatly hoped that she
would reach Vladiyostok in safety.
The action of the japanese Govern
ment in regard to China caused increas-
ing uneasiness here. While it is be-
lieved that the dictatorial attitude as
sumed by Japan was adopted largely
for its moral influence upon the Chi
nese, it is also taken to indicate that
Japan plans to make herself the DOM
inant influence in the Celestial Empire.
