Causes No Alarm.

Paris, Aug. 18.-The news that ia
pan has practically sent an ultimatum
TO China concerning the enforcement
of her neutrality in the case of the
protected cruiser Askold and torpedo
boat destroyer Grozovoi, caused sur
prise but no alarm here, the impress
sion prevailing that China will he on
ly too willing to carry out her neu-
'rality obligations, especially where
such course fayors Japan. Well in
formed circles consider that Chinas
refusal to comply with the Japanese
demand is most improbable. unless
lnder strong impression of the foreign
consuls. But it Is denied here that
China's refusal followed by violence
IN Japan's part would. entail serious
complications.
Che Foo, Aug. 18.-Russians and
Chinese who left Port Arthur last
night and arrived TODAY, declared
that Lieutenant Genera Stoessel in
command at Port Arthur. refuses TO
surrender 10 the Japanese and that
the Russians began firing again at
the time set for replying TO the Jap
anese demands. They confirm also
the report that there are seven Rus
sian ships in Port Arthur harbor in
addition to the torpedo boats and tor
oedo boat destroyers, and say that
the Japanese have lost twenty thous-
Ind before Port Arthur during the
last ten days.

Land Buyers
just Coming

JohnSW. Maher, stated to a re-
porter, in response to an inquiry
as to the probable number Of
people who would come into the
county this fall, that much Of the
land buying would be done by
local pepole. ..You do not have
to convert a North Dakota man
to the advantage of Ramsey
county lands," said he. Local
people know what profit there Isl
in land, and every spare dollar
goes into it. There are plenty Of
spare dollars this fall and they
will mostly go into land.
There are two classes Of land
buyers, those who pioneer it,
and get the benefit Of the first
great advance in land values,
and these are followed years lat
er by the heavy purchasers who
pay good prices and have plenty
of money. The latter class is
just beginning to reach Ramsey
county, and the next few years
will show plenty Of them. Lo-
cal people are buying all the land
possible in anticipation Of this
class Of buyers. VI

Resume of the
japanese War

Newspapers which have tried
to keep pace with the armies
contending for the supremacy in
Asia, have been compelled to !
make additional reports in the
evening to the reports printed
in the morning.. So swift have
been the movements so. deter
mined the progress of the
Japanese, and so weak the de-
Tense and so humiIiating the re-
treats Of the Russians that the
war has been an absolutely a Sc
RES of defeats and retreats.
From the time the first clash of
arms occurred until the mountain
passes behind Mukden enabled
the retreating and Inundated
Russians to gain a brief respite,
there had never been a more
demoralizing retreat.
The Greco Turkish war was as
one sided but there the Greeks
admitted their defeat before
they began fighting, and only
contended against overwhelming
numbers in order that2the honor.
of Greece might not be sullied.
To follow the particular battles
is Of little interest to the gener-
al reader. The Russians have
made but one stand at which the
japanese have been even serious
ly delayed. Port Arthur, the
Gibraltar Of Asia, has SO far
1 withstood their attacks and re-
mains yet in the possession of
Russia. The Russians fleets
have been sent to the bottom
of the sea, dispersed to the
four quarters Of the earth, or
captured. The naval defenses
of Port Arthur are no more.
The land defenses have been bet
ter defended, but the persistent
siege being waged against it
must inevitably reduce this
stronghold in time. The con-
test for Richmond lasted much
longer, even when the defensive
army was reduced to the verge
of starvation, and almost with
out clothes or ammunition. Rus
sian stores have been destroyed
and the nation at home is in a
far worse condi tion than it was
at the beginning Of the war. Its
army has suffered a series Of
crushing defeats, the people
\ those who favored the war
have become discouraged, and
the nation is unable to repIenish
its war losses or add new men
and munitions
The cunbrous equipment and
heavy tactics Of the Russians are
not able to meet the lighter
methods and sWifter movements
Of the japanese. The Russians
have fought in the open, seeking
the plains rather than the noun
tains. There they could use the
cavalry wing Of the army, as
well as the heavy artillery. They
have advanced in solid columns
like the British at New Orleans,
and have furnished unmissable

What used to be called female diseases
by the medical profession is now called
pelvic catarrh. 1t has been found by
experience that catarrhal diseases Of the
pelvic organs are the cause of most cases
of female diseases.
DR.. Hartman was among the first Of
Americas great physicians to make this
discovery. For forty years he has beer
treating diseases peculiar "a women, and
long ago he reached the conclusion that
. woman entirely free from catarrhal
affection of these organs would not be
subject to female disease. He therefore
began using Peruna for these cases and
found it so admirably adapted to their
permanent cure that Peruna has now
become the most famous remedy for
female diseases ever known. Every

When some good old brother Is called

Often times he stops half way,
Screws up his mouth aud squints bis
Sighting the spittoon he lets the juice

Though often times missing aim,
Never once thinks he's partly to blame
For the dirty spots that cover the floor
From the pulpit to the door.

When they get to heaven, for a chew
For surely that poisonous weed
Will not be found in an heavenly mead.

And while you chew with tobacco

So let the sisters dip while the brethren

Do you suppose He'd think twas show

As others see, 1t is a disgrace
