in Field, via Fusan. July Con
July 4, two battalions of Russians
attempted to break through the
Japanese outposts at the northern
entrance of Mo Tien Pass. Before
daylight they surrounded an out
post of 80 men at the foot of a hill
and charged the trench above. A
bloody encounter with bayonets
lasting quarter of an hour, ensued.
The Russians attacked the trench
three times, but were driven up the
valley by Japanese reinforcement
leaving many dead and wounded
Another survivor saw so lying ir
front of the trench.

Sioux City, July 4.-Robert Bu-
.chanan's fine farm in the town of
Lakeport is being literally eaten up
by the Missouri river. It has taken
but five years for the current to
swallow two hundred acres Of this
four hundred acre farm, which is
valued at $75 an acre. Great Sec
tions of rich earth, with the grow
ing crops thereon, tumble into the
river day and night, and the en-.
croachment is approaching the
buildings.
"When the river gets near enough
to take the buildings" Mr.. Buchan-
an says, ,N'It practically will have
got the entire farm. I have had op'
portunities to trade my farm, but
would not dispose of it to persons
unfamiliar with the destructive char
acter of the river, I would rather lose
it myself"
At one time the Buchanan farm
was worth $4,000. Several othel
farms in the vicinity have beer
damaged by the river, and tn
Lakeport shore, containing the pos
office, is in the path of the greedy
stream.

declared he could win her love, and
she accepted him on these terms.
He soon became addicted to drink
and then became cruel to her, and
a few weeks after child was born
to them he deserted her. She ss-
cured a divorce and within a year
was married to another man-an
honest, industrious mechanic. They
lived happily and children came
to them, but within few years he
died, and a few weeks after his
death another child was born to
her, Her father was poor and in
order to support her children she
was compelled to go out to service.
With her children she went to a.
neighboring city in the hope that
there che might the better support
them and herself. But another
marriage, more children and anoth-
Ter divorce within few years were
! the. fruits of her going. She went
to smaller town and there within
short time she was. unhappily
married again. Thus her matri-
monial ventures went on, every one
J adding to her already large family
/ of children. One of her ventures
was an honest, kind-hearted farmer
10 Iowa, who told her he wished a
housekeeper and would give her
and her young children comforta-
BILE home. He was her sixth hus.
band. Before she married him she
had been taken to wife by five
men, divorced from four, and re.
married to and re-divorced from
two.
/ With her sixth husband she
came from Iowa to Western Ne
braeka and settled on a ranch in
Scott's Bluff county, where they
lived happily together for num-
bero years, and where she bore
more children. Husband and wife
Ilabered hard and had made for
themselves and the children COM
/ Portable home, when suddenly he
| fell ill and died.
/ Mrs. Conroy, for that was her
husband's name, was grief stricken
at the death of her husband, for he
had been singularly kind and con-
siderate with her and she had form
led warm attachment for him. She
was getting along quite comfortably
les#widow when the real romance
of her eventful life was developed.
i One day tall, broad.shouldered
man. win a full, reddish brown
beard streaked with gray. and with
kindly blue eyes, alighted from the
train at little railway station il
Western Nebraska and inquired the
way to Mrs. Conroy's ranch. What
happened when he arrived there
only he and Mrs. Conroy know
but since they were married it be-
came known that his name is Thom
as Fitzgerald, and the story of their
! early love affair leaked out.
Neither of them has been much
disposed to talk about their affairs,
but from remarks he let drop i,
transpired that when she was living
, with her sixth husband he by acci.
dent learned who she was and
where che was. He forebore then
however, to reveal to her his owr
identy or whereaboute, but as soor
, after the death of her husband al
} the proprieties would permit. hi
went to her and asked her to marry
him in fulfllment of the promise
, she made to him when they wer,
: lad and lass in old Ireland. They
have gone down East somewhere t
! live and appear to be very happy
Thus her ninth matrimonial ven
t ture, which should have beer
t her first, bids fair to be the mos
9 fortunate and fit one she has eve
made.

Toxic, July 6.-Supplemental
dispatches indicate that the fight at
Mo Tien Lin Pass on July 4, was a
desperate hand to hand affair. A
majority of the Japanese injured
were wounded by bayonets. The
Russians surrounded the outposts
of the Japanese, who fought until
relief came. The Russians left So
dead and 40 wounded upon the
field. The Japanese lost 10 killed
and 80 wounded. It is believed
that the Russians sustained greater
loss during the pursuit than in the
action.

Guthrie, Okla, June 29.-G. S.
Van Eman, of Jennings, a resident
of Pawnee county since the opening
of the territory in 1889, has the dis.
tinction of being the only man, so
far as known, to sue president of
the United States and secure judg-
ment while the president was eerv.
ing his term of Office. Van Eman
actually brought suit against Gro.
yer Cleveland, following the passage
of the Wilson tariff bill, got service
by publication and secured judg-
ment against the presidentfor $400.
Van Eman was the owner of an
immense sheep ranch in Kansas,
and during the years Of republican
rule hsd made a snug fortune from
the annual wool clip. Following
the passage of the Wilson tariff
measure. he claimed that the price
of wool was so lessened that the
sheep business was practically ru-
ined. This was the cause of his
suit against the then president. He
attributed the entire blame for the
price of wool going down to the
president, because of the latter's
approval of the tariff bill.
The Judgment was never collect
ed. as President Cleveland never
got in reach of an execution, but
Van Eman has always held that in
securing the judgment he had about
evened up matters, although the
wool for several seasons was very
low in price.
The credit is also given Van E.
man for the political story, told
during the past few campaigns by
practically every republican politi-
clan on the stump, regarding the
mannerin in which farmers and sheep.
lgrowers sheered sheep after the pas
cage of the Wilson bill Van E.
man was the originator of the story
that he was ashamed to look sheer
in the face under the tariff condi.
tions forced upon him, SO during
the remainder of Mr.. Cleveland's 4
term he made practice of begin,
ming al the other end of the sheep
to sheer it.
i Van Eman carries the copy O
Judgment he secured and shows il
with great satisfaction to all his
friends, saying that if ever the op
, portunity presents itself he viii
, hand the court record to Mr.. Cleve
land for settlement.

presented to the Academy OF Scien-
ces, of which be is president, all the
details of the new system, by which
it is believed that the problem of
the derigibility Of airships has been
solved.
The new airships consist of two
balloons, secured side by side to in.
sure rigidity, and is provided with
a motor and two screws, revolving
Independently of each other. The
rectangular cabin in the middle de-
termines the center of gravity, and
the wings are regulated by a simple
arrangement of ropes, which gives
the airships the desired inclination
for descent or ascent. Scientists
here are thoroughly persuaded of
the merits of The new airship, and
have furnished the amount necessa-
ry for its construction and patents.
Sioux Falls, July 4 "A South
Dakota girl, Miss Lucille Wilson,
who is at present "roughing it'' on
her brothers. cattle ranch, near
Hampshire, Wyo., according to let
ters received by relatives living
south of Sioux Falls, has disting-
uished herself by running down
and capturing two young antelopes.
Miss Wilson is a good rider and
was returning home from a long
ride to the ranch, when she espied
a herd Of about 50 antelope, feed
ing in one Of the "dips" in the prai-
rie. Mics Wilson succeeded in rid
| ing quite close to them before they
became aware of her presence.
The animals took fight immedi-
ately upon catching sight of Miss
Wilson and her horse.
She noticed two little fawns in
fight beside their mother, and she
instantly urged her horse forward
and gave chase. The baby ante
lope Notwithstanding their small
ness, were remarkably feet of foot,
but the horse Miss Wilson was rid
ing was one of the swiftest in that
part of Wyoming, and, after an ex-
citing pursuit of nearly four miles,
one of the fawns was overtaken,
| Miss Wilson jumped from her
horse, grabbed the little fellow and
tied its feet with one of the rawhide
thongs from the saddle, then mount
led and continued her pursuit of th.
other one, which she also succeeded
In capturing.
Whea she appeared at the ranch
carrying young antelope under
each arm the ranch hands were
greatly surprised, as they had fire.
!; quently failed in their attempts te
capture young antelope.
, In remarkably short time the
f two captives became very tame: and
: now follow Miss Wilson to all part
. of the ranch like two dogs.
