FORT WAYNE, Ind, March 2-Trustee
Goodale, of the Kinney Bank, of Angola,

make a tender of $1,000 TO the White Ma
tional Bank in payment of notes given the
bank by Kinney & Co, and to demand re-
turn of the $4,000 of collateral deposited as

protect all the paper, il says, and IL re-
fuses to deliver it's security unless all the
notes are paid. The trustee will bring suit
to recover.
The trustee was also directed to sell the

dispatch to the New York American
says: The Japanese are using Chinese
soldiers in their army in Manchuria,
according to private advices received
here from the scene of operations.
These reports say that fully 10000
Cinnamon. mostly Manchus, are now
incorporated in the Japanese army, and
that the number is constantly being
added to. They are under Japanese Of
ficers. both commissioned and nom
commissioned, and are scattered In
small bodies throughout the invading
force, except in the army which is de-
tailed to attack Port Arthur. This is
composed entirely of Japanese and the
very pick of the mikado's troops are
under General Oku.
1t is said these Manchus make fine
soldiers. They are amenable to dis
cipline and are imbued with bitter
hatred of Russia. This news has caused
n good deal Of talk among military
men and the principle is being dis
cussed as to what effect it will have
on Chinese neutrality.
1t is generally held that China can
only be held responsible If recruiting is
permitted in Chinese territory. This is
said not to be the case, all the China
men serving under the Japanese flag
having been enlisted in Manchuria.

KURoKl ON DEFENSIVE.
He Will Not Accommodate kuropat-
kin by Delivering an Attack.


st. Petersburg, June S-General kuroki
is refusing to attack the Russian posi-
lions at Lao Yang, and indications are
that Sui Yen is likely to become ali inter-
esting center which General Kuropatkin
might choose as his first battlefield. 1t
is necessary to make movement against
the enemy as Il prelude to the relief of
Port Arthur. which cannot be undertaken
until General Kuroki's combined forces
their further advance is blocked.
The appointment of Field Marshal va
magata gives the cue that the Japanese
propose hurrying matters so as to fore
stall action on the part of General Kuro-
patkn. Large forces of cavalry are be-
ing pushed forward to Hal Cheng with a
view to operations toward Stu Ylcn.

news is scarce. about SERIOUS differences

ing out the campaign between Admiral
Alexieff and General Kuropatllin" need
not be taken seriously. The vicerOy is
being confined very strictly to adminis-
trative functions which keep him fully
occupied. nor is he a military man or a
strategist. General Kuropatkin is given
free hand and In cases of necessity is
neither controlled from here nor by Adj
miral Alexieff. His slowness in moving
is due to series of unexpected delays In
receiving reinforccments, details of which

TURN OVER TIME.

When Nature Hints About the Food.
When there's no relish to any food
and all that one eats doesn't seem TO-
do any good, then is the time to make
turn over in the diet, for that's Ma
lures way of dropping hint that the
food isn't the kind required.
For number of years l followed
railroad work, much of it being office
work of a trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest, and eating too much
and too quickly Of food such as is
commonly served in hotels and restau-I
rants, these together with the seden-i
tary habits We're not long in giving
me dyspepsia and Stomach trouble
which reduced my weight from 205 TO
16O pounds.
"There was little relish in any food
and none of it seemed to do me any
good 1t seemed the more l ate the
poorer l got and was always hungry
before another meal, no matter how
much l had eaten.
'"Then | commenced a fair trial OF
Grape-Nuts and was surprised how a
small saucer of it would carry me
along, strong and with satisfied appe-
tite. until the next meal, with no SEN
sations of hunger, weakness or distress
as before.
81 have been following this diet now
for several months, and my improve
ment has been so great all the others
In my family have taken up the use
of Grape-Nuts with complete satisfac-
ton and much improvement in health
and brain power.
american people undoubtedly eat
hurriedly, have lots of worry, thus
hindering digestion and therefore need
food that is predigested and conccn-
trated in nourishment.' Name given

Some Careless and Some Careful 40
They Are With Other Belongings.
New York Sun: "a watch ought to
be cleaned once in say eighteen months
or two years." said the jeweler; but
how often 1t would need to be cleaned
and how often mans watch might
stand in need of repairs would depend
good deal on the man himself; on how
he used it,"
ION how he used it? Doesn't man
Just put his watch in his pocket and
carry it? Is there any difference In the
ways in which fen use their watches?"
why, there's all the difference in the
world, just as there is In the ways In
which men use their clothes or any
other CT their belongings. One man.
foz instance, will put on a new overcoat
and have 1T looking like an old one in .
month, and another man would wear
the same oNercoat' two seasons and
come out with it at the end of the sec
ond season looking fresh and in good
order. And one man will make q new
watch look like an old one in no time.
and another will i'm some way, anA
without carrying it in a chamois bag
or anything of that sort, always have
his watch looking new and in good con-
dition. One man will take out his watch
to look at the time anywhere. when
the wind is blowing dust along the
street, or in the rain or the snow, while
another man will be thoughtful of such
things and not get out his watch to
look at it where it would be exposed to
the possibility of injury from such a.
cause. And he would keep the pocket
In which he carried it free from dust
and lint, and would be careful of 1t
generally.
oh yes, there's all the difference in
the world in the way in which men use
their watches. just as there is In all

ST. Petersburg. June S.--The Novoe
Nrelnya today discusses quite seriously
the report that the United States intends
to cedc the Philippines to Japan and ar
CUES that the far-seeing Yankee, ant.ci-
pating the inevitable future conflict with
Japan, prefers to sell the Islands instead
of defending them. having thereby
learned Russia's lesson of the present
war, namely. the difficulty of holding
territory so far from the base. The paper
adds:
the exchange of Spanish for American
domination in the Philippines. but the lat
ter is thousand times more agreeable
than to see Japan installed there. where
it would be a constant menace to Europe's
Asiatic interests. England will have to
look We'll to it's position in India, France
to Indo- China and even Holland to Java
The only consolation is that tho cession
may keep Japan quiet for a number Of
years.
An Associated Press correspondent has
telegraphed here that General kuropat-
kin's headquarters staff has moved forty
miles south of Iiao Yang. to a point be-
tween Hal Cheng and Dashitszaio.
Kuropatlsin's move is considered to
possibly foreshadow severe fighting in the
northern part of the Lao Tung peninsula,
nat 1t is mistake to assume that this
action involves a change in the portion
of the Russian army, which. according
to the best information, remains at Lao
Yang.

TRAFFIC IN TWO CITIES.
More Travellers, But Fewer Pedestrian,
In NeM, Y ~ Than n, nndon

in New y W. Than in London.
New York Sun: There is more traffic,
decidedly, in London than there is in
New York. but the figures recently pub
lished in the English capital TO prove
the greater amount of travel there in
to take into account all of New York's
transportation facilities. There are 600
miles of railway of all kinds within
the boundaries of London. The rail-
roads of New York city with 100000
less population than LondonO have
more than 500 miles. of which the
Metropolitan has. approximately. $50;
Union (Huckleberry), Is, and the
Brooklyn lines. 300. This is exclusive
of the mileage of the New York Gem
trail and Hudson River, the New York
and New Haven, the Long Island and
the New York and Putnam within the
city boundaries.
The number of passengers carried by
the New York lines exceeds q billion
in a year, which is 200OOO,0O0 more than
are carried by the lines within the
boundaries of London in the like period.
There is a much larger number of
vehicles in the streets of London than
in the streets of New York. The num-
Der of cabs i'm the English capital is
much larger than the number in use in
New York and the London omnibus
system is very extensive. 1t has been
pointed out that Piccadilly. between the
hours Of l and 2 p. M, is the most
crowded point of traffic in London.
There is a record in twelve hours of
more than $4,000 vehicles passing al
given point.
These figures appear large ,or would
appear large, until compared with the
morning and afternoon crush at the
Manhattan entrance of the Brooklyn
bridge. More people travel in New
York in day than in London, larg-l
err city, but in New York fewer people
Walk than in London. More ride.
