Gifted Reader,

Mrs. Saunders is gifted and cultured
reader with most pleasing voice and
the charm OF naturalness. She has the
ability to impersonate wide variety of
characters and truly interprets her
author, whether it be the dramatic
scene in the arena OF "Quo Vadis" or
the touching pathos of child life de-
picted by Kate Douglas Wiggin in

New Bridge Next Year.

The county has been petitioned to
build new bridge across Sandy Lick
creek, at foot Of Fifth street In this
borough, and the court appointed three
viewers TO investigate the matter and
see whether the county should build a
new bridge. The viewers performed
their work several weeks ago, mention
Of which was made In The STAR at the
time, and reported favorable for new
bridge. Such cases are always held
over one court and there will be no
action taken on this one until the
January term OF court. There is no
doubt, however, but that the county
commissioners will build the new bridge
next spring. 1t is needed badly, as
there is considerable heavy hauling
over the present bridge, which is not
substantial enough and which is nothing
more than temporary structure.

Commissioner Wares action was not
due to any suggestion that the sew
erance of his relations with the PEN

been no secret that Commissioner
Ware, soon after assuming his duties,
found the duties of his Office distaste-

Sweeps East and South.

Baltimore, Md. (SpeciaD.-Winter
weather was abruptly ushered in SUM
day before the close of fall, and Balti-'
moreans were treated to one of the
most disagreeable days in the history
of the city. The conditions were not
merely local, for large section of the
country, so far as can be learned, suf-I
fered the effects of small-sized blizsl
card, caused by the probable coming
together OF two storms, one from On!
taria and the Lakes. and the other
from Florida. Snow fell all along thel
seaboard, from Norfolk to Block Isl
land, and great storm lowered about
the Adirondacks.
Telephone and telegraph wires were
broken down in all directions, and
Baltimore had very poor service North
and none at all South For that rea-
son it appears that the Florida storm
caused the main damage here. WASH
ington was apparently nearer the
storm center than Baltimore, for it is
understood that the fury of the storm
was much greater in that vicinity.
However, in the extreme Northeast,
at Block Island, the wind acquired a
velocity of 76imiles an hour. There is
no doubt that considerable damage
was done in the storm-swept section,
but this locality did not fare SO badly,
beyond broken wires, etc.

BATTLE UNDER PORT ARTHUR

Headquarters Third Japanese Army
in the Field, before Port Arthur, via
Fusan (By Cable. By a general at
tack on the eastern fortified ridge on
October 80 the Japanese gained the
meats of the principal forts assaulted.
These were wider, deeper and
stronger than had been supposed, and
were defended by caponieres or gal
leries running north of the Keekwan
forts. The galleries were captured
after desperate fighting under ground.
The Russians still hold parts of the
moats, but the Japanese are engaged
in sapping to dislodge them, after
which the capture of the forts should
be easy.
The casualties on the Japanese side
in this engagement were 1000.
The casualties in the attack of the
Japanese on the eastern fortified ridge
on October 80 were 1900. 1t was an
unsuccessful assault The powerful
East Keekwan Fort was gained, but
the Russians were reinforced and
drove the Japanese down to the foot
of the hill. The Japanese are now
sapping toward the crest of the hill
The capture of this fort would give
the Japanese the key to the eastern
fortified range, as artillery mounted
there would dominate the forts in
front of the ridge and enable the
Japanese to place infantry in posi-
ton to sweep the ridge.
