Fighting Parson

Pittsburg, Pa, June 2l.-Jefersou
township, ten miles from the border line
of Pittsburg ls again in an uproar. The
Rev. S. P. Montgomery, pastor Of the
Jefferson United Presbyterian church,
who is at present Under $500 bond for
whipping Elder Edmond Z. Heath in
church two weeks ago, engaged in fist
fight last Saturday evening with Harry
Snee, 200 pound Heath sympathizer.
The Rev. Mr.. Montgomery knocked
Snee down twice, but was fioored by a
blow that laid his forehead open. The
blood flowed until he was blinded.
Separated, the fighting dominic washed
off the blood, applied court plaster and
sailed forth to hunt Snee. Finding bim,
the preacher gave battle. again, but was
pulled away.
The minister then went home and pre-
pared three sermons on Christian plety.
which he delivered the next day.
Urged to sue Snee, the Rev. Mr.. Mont
gomery said "No; am able to take care
of myself"

Electric Line to Burkes Garden

The construction Of an electric car line
from Tazewell to Burkes Garden is still
being agitated. One proposition is TO run
the line from here to the head of Clear
Fork. Thence down that stream TO
Crabtree's Gap. Then to cross through
the gap to Wolf Creek, and follow that
creek 10 the Garden. That would make
the line between twenty and twenty-five
miles long; and it is thought by some that
the length of the route would make the
cost Of construction 30 great that the en-
terprise cannot be carried out. Others
suggest that the line can be greatly short
ened by adopting another route, and the
cost go greatly reduced as to make the
scheme feasible. These suggest that the
line be run across Rich Mountain in the
most direct and practicable course from
the town to the head of Little Creek and
down that creek to the gap where the
Garden is entered. 1t is thought the
l,ngth of the road on this route would be
less than ont-half what it would be If
taken by way of Crabtree's Gap.

St. Petersburg, June 2I.-The mosG san
culinary battle of the war has taken place
at Haicheng, and the news Of the defeat
of General Kuropatkin's plan to relieve
Port Arthur has caused gloom and de-
preston here.
The Russians have been defeated and
are now In full retreat upon Lao Yang.
1t was officially announced from the
war Office this evening that after two days
of fighting, with heavy losses. the Rus
slams are in retreat, and that the attempt
TO relieve Port Arthur has failed, tempor-
arIly, at least.
General Srackelberg's army, after being
defeated at Vafangow, was reinforced, and
General Kuropatkin in person directed
the advance movement in front of Lao
Yang, with the hope of giving decisive
battle to the japanese menacing Port
Arthur.
General Stackelberg's army, after lts
losses Of week ago, was reinforced by
twenty thousand fresh troops.
After the defeat of the Russians at Va
fangow, the forces of Japanese Generals
Kuroki aud Oku were joined. Before
this junction was effected General Stackel-
berg's forces were outnumbered by the
Japanese. This JOINT force fell upon the
Russians, driving them back.

ternoon. 1t was a meeting that will long
be remembered in the political tones oi
the Republican party for the remarkable
speech of the temporary chairman, Elihu
Root, former Secretary cf War. 1t was
the piece de resistance of the day and the
delegates were swept to their feet and
cheered for many minutes at its conclu-
sion. Chairman Root indexed, with no
tongue, the attitude Of the Republican
party on the financial, trust, foreign af-
fairs and other questions of the day and
his trenchant declarations were greeted
time and again with applause. 1t was a
speecL of praise of good things. In bis
peroration he pictured with burning die
ton the character and principles of the
martyred Mckinley and pointing to the
picture of the late Senator Hanna, which
hang above the platform, he said;
"And with Mckinley We remember
Hanna with affection and sorrow-his
great lieutenant. They are together
again"
The speaker choked in bis emotion and
halted while the convention, some Of the
delegates with tears streaming down their
faces, rose to their feet and cheered for
minutes. The last demonstration came
when the chairman, drawing to the close
OF his speech, said:
"Come what may here-come what
may in November, God grant that those
qualities of brave, true manhood shall
have honor throughout America, shall be
held for an example in every home, and
that the youth of generations to come
may grow up to feel that it is better than
wealth, or Office, or power, to have the
honesty the purity and the courage Of
Theodore Roosevelt"

the fighting at Telssu (Vafangow), on June
Is, was more severe than was at first be-
lieved. The number Of Russians killed in
this battle will probably exceed two thou
sand and their to al loss, including pris-
oners, is estimated at 10000. The
Japanese losses are less than 1000, OF
about one tenth Of the Russian total.
Up to June II, General Oku had buried
1916 Russian dead and he reports that
many more dead have been found.
Chinese who watched the fighting from
the Russian side, report that the Russians
removed many dead to the trains with
their wounded, and that they buried or
cremated many corpses in the village Of
Hua Sung Kou before they retreated.
The number of prisoners and trophies
taken by the japanese is encouraging
General Uku is not yet able to report the
total number of prisoners.
