SITUATION IS HOPEFUL
Much Rejoicing In St. Petersburg Over
General Siesssers Bravery.
REPORT WITHHELD FOR REASONS.
The Wounding of General Stressed is
Confirmed but Injury is Not Sutti-
eient to Prevent Him From Direct
ing Defense on Fortress.

The Japanese army south of Muk-
den is reported to be concentrating on
their left and center, presumably with
the intention of attacking, and a re-
newal of fighting is expected. State
ments given out at st. Petersburg re-
garding the situation at Port Arthur
are more hopeful and represent that
the garrisons may be expected to hold
out until the arrival of Vice Admiral
Rojestvensky's squadron. The report
that General StoesseI mad been wound
ed is confirmed, but it is said his in
jury is not sufficient to prevent him
from directing the defense OF the fort
ress.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 19.-Rejoicing
over the undaunted spirit displayed by
General Stoessel in his telegram OF
congratulation to Emperor Nicholas on
the anniversary of his accession to the
throne, and officially announcing the
failure of General Nogis attempt to
present Port Arthur to the Mikado as
a birthday gift is tempered by private
information that the gallant COM
mander has been wounded. General
Stoessel was struck in the head by
splinter from a shell while he was per-
sonally directing the repulse of par
ticularly desperate assault, but for
tunately the wound is not serious and
General Stoessel has not been required
to relinquish command. General
Stoessel is regarded as the heart and
soul of the defense and his death or
disability which would cause him to
relinquish command would be re-
garded as an irremedisble misfortune.
Other information sent by General
Stoessel, which has not been divulged
for strategic reasons, it is said by the
war Office, is by no means unfavorable.
While the garrison is now hemmed in
in the citadel itself not one of the main
forts has been taken. The garrison
has been provisioned, freslf-ammuni-
ton has arrived, and General Stoessel
expresses confidence that the defense
can be successfully maintained until
the arrival of Vice Admiral Rojestven-
sky's second Pacific squadron.
The report that the armored cruiser
Gromoboi had been injured at Viadi-
vostok is confirmed. The vessel
grounded as she was returning to the
harbor upon a trial trip after the re-
pair of the injuries received in the
fight with Admiral Kamimura' S
squadron, but at the admiralty the in
iuries are said to be slight.

We think to-day not only of present

many common traits, such as love of
liberty, dauntless determination and
especially the faculty of looking for

They were not satisfied with the con-

larger life. AS a result of that dis.
satisfaction. coupled with a capacity
for work and the power to see great
possibilities in the future, we inherit
the glorious realities of our present
day lives.
Every people that energies from

things came to the founders of our
nation and state. We are grateful to
God for the vision of our fathers that
has been so largely realized in the
magnificent achievements of our ma

state.
Has this vision of better Things
ceased? II better things are possible
we must make them ours. This vision
also will be realized. The church
shares this optimism. Her eyes see
the great work that is hers and her
hands are ready and her heart gIaG;
and the vision of righteousness which

There never has been an inventor

Grocery Robbed.

Thieves broke into the rear window
of the Enterprise grocery last night.
The thief or thieves, whoever they
were must have known all about the
location of the means of ingress and
eRress as they went about their thiev-
ing in systematic manner.
The Enterprise is on the corner of
Fifth and Colorado avenues and Is a
place where there is considerable trav-
el and it would be hardly expected
that this store would be picked upon
to perpetrate a burglary. The top
sash of the rear window was forced
down and the burglars crawled right
through onto platform. In the
Office ot the Enterprise money draw
er is kept, but the funds of the day
wero removed III the evening, as is
the custom by Vollmer. There were
perhaps three or four dollars in pen
MES in the drawer. The drawer was
forced and these were taken.
How much groceries were taken
the firm is unable to determine. as a
large stock was carried and it is not
readily determined. 1t is known
that they had a tooth for hams, as
quite a number of these were taken
from the cellar.
