eofTGsal fhe seriousness of his losses, but his report and the reports from all other Russian sources agree that the retreat was in no sense rOut
 The keenest interest is now manifest ed in the reported advance of two Jap anese divisions from Siuyen with the intention of taking General Stakelberg In the rear. It is realized that if this report should prove true the Russian commander may be unable to extricate himself and that if he should be cut off from General Kuropatkin's main army the fate of the detR chmant would be sealed.
 The public derives some consolation from the foreign reports of the raid southward made by the vladivostok squadron. It is believed that the squadron has returned to Vladivostok.
 A Tokyo report says that all doubt as Go the sinking of the transports Hita- chi and Sado by the Russians has been removed. Three hundred and ninety seven survivors of the Hiatchi have ar rived at MoJi and 153 survivors of the Eado at Kokura.

"THE DOOR sLAMMERs."
Accompaniments of Bad Tempers That Tend to Make Trouble
 in the Home.

The woman from whom the follow. ing bit of conversation is quoted is not, 1t may be well to explain, of the nerves the least unpleasant sound grates with perceptible annoyance She is not one, says the Detroit FreS Press, in whose presence you cannot read newspaper because of it's per Sistent tendency to rattle when its pages are turned, nor write a letter be. cause the pen scratches a bit. And the fact that anyone comes home after ten o'clock in the evening does not disturb her slumbers for the remainder of the night
 'I frequently visit a family" said she, which some years ago named. and quite appropriately, it seems to me, The Door Slammers.' doubt fl a single member of that family of five ever closes door without slamming it. And whether the temper of the family causes the slamming, or the 'slamming the temper, might form an interesting subject for psychological study At any rate the atmosphere ot tAAO AOh4O 10 APR0l GAIAy AONOA QulIS clear and sweet, and everyone seems to possess easily rufI1ed dispositions. If the fathers breakfast Is not just to his liking, or If something else has irritated him, the vigorous slam oi the front door as he leaves for the office is all that is needed to proclaim 1t. The ehildren's uncontrolled desire to get out to play is manifested by the same stgn, which is also sure indica- ton of the mothers haste or careless ness or impatience.
 "Gruffness, thoughtlessness, haste, carelessness, impatience these arc surely prominent accompaniments oi bad tempers. How often I have tried. indirectly, of course, to impress upon my family of door slammers that not only is it 8 fact that our thoughts in fiuence our deeds--it is equally true that manifestation of gentleness and l quietness in our acts and movements is sure to have a beneficial effect upon our minds.'

Syrian Murderer of American Mis-

 ST. PETERSBURG, June 17.-A pri- vate letter from Urumiyah, north Per sia, says that Seid, wfio murdered Rev. Benjamin W. Labaree of the American mission, has been brought by the Brit ish consul to Tabriz for trial. The murder of Rev. MT. Labaree, who was assassinated in March last, was an act of vengeance
 Seid had previously killed a Syrian who was a British subject, whereupon representatives of the Anglo American mission insisted that the assassin be punished When the culprit learned of this he announced that he would kill the missionaries. so the latter no longer insisted upon his arrest. Seid nevertheless took his revenge, MT. Labaree being his first victim.
