Special dispatch to THE NUGGET.
Toxic, March 1T is believed the
Russian Vladivostok squadron is now
in the vicinity of the mouth of the
Tumah river, engaged in covering the
movements of troops from Possiet bay
to the valley of the Tumn. Russian
scouts are reported to have penetrated
south Tokiung Sunday. The earlier
Russian movement to northwestern
Korea was regarded as a diversion, but
it now appears considerable Russian
force participated. The reports re-
garding Russian movements in north
western Korea are very meager and
unreliable. That the force north of
the Yalu is being incseased is not
doubted, but it is not believed any con-
siderable number of Russians have yet
crossed the river boundary between
Manchuria and Siberia.

"Millions for Defense"

A prominent naval officer tells a story of the days just previous to the Spanish-American war, when Theodore Roosevelt was assistant Secretary of the Navy. One day MT. Roosevelt, as. sisted by Lieut.. Sharpe, had concluded certain negotiations looking to the pur. chase of vessels suitable for scout duty. To this end the two officials had expended about three million dol lars of Uncle Sam's money.
 When the days work had been com. pleted and the two were ready to leave the department, Mir. Roosevelt observ. ed that it was raining.
 "Well, Sharpe," said MT. Roosevelt, i've can't walk home in this rain, espe. cially as neither of us has an um. brella. We'll take car; but as have but three cents in my pocket, you'll have to pay my fare"
 The lieutenant grinned.
 q haven't a cent" he said.
 Mir. Roosevelt burst into . loud laugh.
 "Well, never mind, old man," said he. "This only goes to show what an exceptional lot we Americans are. It isn't every country where two public servants could spend three million dol. lars and not have a cent in their pock. cts when they were through"

London's School Hystem.

London sends SOO,OOO children to school. her ability to do 50 resulting from the efforts of her school board proceeding under the recently adopted education act. It has erected 800 new public buildings, covering a square mile of valuable land, distributing them in every one of London's fifty eight electoral divisions, four to every square mile of the city's surface. The outlay WIS about $7O,OO0,OOO, and they are by far the most important of the municipal assets. The work has been going on for thirty years, with con. stantly improving educational condi- tons, and seems now to be pretty thoroughly equal to the service re- quired of 1t. It gives more than ele- mentary instruction; pupils find class es open to them in literature, science, art technology and the like, with lee turers and teachers who are expert in their respective branches. At six of the polytechnics the highest classes have been included in the faculties of the reorganized London University, with its GOO professors and its twenty. i've constituent colleges, constituting center of academic teaching and re- search not unworthy of the great city which 1t serves.
