RUSSIANS WILL MAKE A HARD FIGHT
CSar's Chief Is Aware of Strategic Importance of Takushan Posi- tiOn-LarEe Force Landed
 at Newchwang.

LONDON, April 21-A St. Peters burg dispatch says what may turn out to be the anticipated fianking move ment of the Japanese troops is the ap- pearance of number of Japanese ships off Potinsa, near the gulf of Chingtaitse, as reported to the emperor by General Kuropatkin. Military ex- perts here have long regarded that vii cinity as the probable point of disem- barkation of the second Japanese expe- dition. It Is not far away from Taku- shan, twelve miles to the east, and con meets by road with Port Arthur, 150 miles to the southwest, and Fenghuan- cheng, fifty miles to the northwest, where the Russians will make their first obstinate resistance
 Though the Japanese are building in trenchments on the Yalu, it is believed that they will advance soon. The ar engagements for a turning movement are complete, and experts say that such movement could properly begin at Takushan, as Fenghuancheng lies at the angle of an equilateral triangle, with Takushan and the Yalu as bases.
 The Japanese disembarkati ton will undoubtedly be covered by warshipG, and the Russians recognize that it will be impossible to prevent it.
 We will strike after they have land ed" grimly said member of the gen eral staff
 General Kuropatkin is aware of the strategic importance of the vicinity of Takushan, and 1t is understood that he has made arrangements accordingly. A report from Seoul says the Japa- nese authorities admit that constant skfrmishing is occurring between the opposing armies on the Talu river They say that no decisive action has taken place up to date, though news of moment
 It is believed that the Russians now have 50,000 men on the Yalu river. X 1 The Japanese consul at Wonsan | (Gensan) telegraphs that a Buddhist priest is the only Japanese who remain ed at Songjin, on Plaksin bay, in the northeast of Korea, at which place the Russians are reported to have burned the Japanese residences and to have destroyed other property belonging to l Japanese
 A dispatch from St Petersburg says 1 that large Japanese force has landed near Newchwang.
 A St. Petersburg report says General Kuropatkin intimated that he intends to await tie arrival of another 100, ,00C
 men before risking a battle with the Japanese.

ON EASY PAYMENT TERMS
San Lam, Hoosier Chinaman, Pays $500 for Bride in 1O2 Weekly
 Payments.

Young man, don't be clam. Buy a wife on the ins&allment plan. That's what San Lam, an almond eyed Celes- tial of Kokomo, Ind, has just done, and an American is as good as d Chinaman any day.
 San Lam came to America as boy, and until he was IS years old lived in ''the quarter at San Francisco Then he came east and located at Kokomo. But life in Kokomo was lonesome, and San longed for wife. He knew that there were plenty of wives to be found in "the quarter" in San Francisco, but he had been there, and there was only one girl there to his mind Pitti Lung was only IS, but her eyes were like sloes and her hair like jet Her cheeks were pink and her teeth like little ChindSe pearls.
 San Lam longed for Pitt Lung. Pitt longed not for San. So San went

to her guardian. a wrinkled, yellow old Chinaman, with huge iron spectacIes
 How much for Pitt Lung?" asked San Lam.
 ''So and so and so and so,' said the wrinkled, yellow old guardian. So and so and so and so in Chinese meant $500 in United States.
 ''I pay thlee dol elevly week?" said San, who had read the advertisements in the newspapers
 The yellow, wrink1ed old Chinaman nodded They killed a white chicken and the bargain was sealed.
 Every week San Lam bought a 8 money order at the Kokomo post office and mailed it in aA envelope to thu yellow, wrinkled old Chtnaman.
 One hundred and two Kokomo mon- ey orders went to San Francisco, and recently San Lam went himself to claim his bride. He bought her on the installment plan. and if he is enter prising he may furnish home on the installment plan; but he will have to pay cash for shark fin and birds nest soup.

TALE OF THE WOODS.
BEAUTIFUL DEER FOUND DEAD
 UNDER ITS RIDER.
Hunters Legs Were So Long That He Ran, Not Walked, with It, and the. Animal Was Fright
 ened to Death.

/ "When was working in the lumber woods at Cross Forks, on Pine creek, said a man from Potter county, Pa, to a New York Sun reporter, "a man named George Briggs came over from Cortland, N. r.. and wanted to get live deer This was before the rail roads and tanneries came into that part of the hemlock belt, and deer were more than plenty. Jule Critten- den was running things at Cross Forks and he volunteered to get Briggs the deer
 'JuIe scattered number of his men about in the woods, told me to hitch hp a team to follow the road through the woods with him. and then put the dogs out to start a deer. They were not long doing 1t. The deer came to the road some distance ahead of our team We put the whip to the horses and chased 1t all the way to the ford of the creek at Cross Forks, the shout ing of the men in the woods and the yelping of the dogs keeping 1t in the Coad.
 "The deer took a course up the creek BJL Iu6 lOIuv Il M0 mGA 6CdA OA U O01ChS though, and 1t ran into big laurel patch. We had stopped the team, and , it was standing in the road, with Crit tenden and me both in the wagon, while the dogs chased the deer out past the team. As it was bounding by Crit tenden leaped from the wagon and came down astride the deer.
 "Crittenden was a man with extra ordinarily long legs and as he landed on the deer his feet touched the ground on each side, thus preventing his weight from breaking the deer down, and enabling 1t to move on its way. This 1t did for only few paces though, when 1t came to standstill Crittenden's long legs and his clutch on the deer keeping it on it's feet When the deer stopped Crittenden hol lered to me:
 {" I've got him! Hurry here witt the halter strap!
 'I got the halter strap out of the wagon, and ran to where Crittender was holding the deer and noticed

 deer hunt was the standing of dog on runway and the driving of deer to it by the hunter, instead of putting the hunter on the runway and letting the dos do the driving. It worked to a charm, and they took the deer in and delivered it to Briggs.
 "I don't know what there was about the man, but in less than half an hour he had that deer so tame-fresh as it was from it's wilderness haunts, where it was wild and unapproachable that it would follow him anywhere; and the last we saw of Briggs and the deer he was on his way to York state,e taking the public road, the deer following close at his heels and munching sweet apples that he fed it now and then as they marched along.'

STATE HOME
DISCUSSED
of the Board of Man
ayers Tells of the Re-
forms There.

Trenton, June 3:-Thomas p. Fay,
president of the Board of Managers
of the State Home for Girls, recently
discussed with q reporter affairs at
the institution. Among other thing
he said:
Zone of our first discoveries after
the departure of Mrs. Eyler, was that
only skinned milk was used ut the
at nee
lone of the most important change;
made is III the parole system. 1t was
formerly the custom to allow girls
convicted of small offenses, such as
potty larceny, to remain in the Home
for years. This wal all wrong
Where girls are sent to the Home now
for such crimes they are paroled just
as soon as their conduct warrants it,
efforts are being made also to
place more of the girls in good homes
as servants. Applications are carefully
investigated by a committee OF Ladies.
We placed out a girl on indenture
several days ago at q monthly salary
of Sc. That amount is paid into the
home at the M of each month and
placed to the credit of the girl. When
she is 81 years old tho entire amount
will be turned over to her.

by its absence when We took hold.
Inmates committed on serious charges
were thrown with others guilty tf
minor offenses We arc changing all
Ut that. We are going also to separatJ
Us far as possible, the white and
colored girls.
Especial attention is being. given
religious instruction. A number of
cIergymen of different denominations
have been through the place lately,
and their observations and recon-
m%endations carefully considered.
The inmates will be allowed to attend
churches in Trenton regularly. As

Corporal puuis hment has beeu
entirely discontinued. Refractory
girls may be confined in their rooms,
but the practice of giving them moth
ing to eat Mt such times has been
abandoned.
"Hitherto there has been no at
tempt made to give the girls an op.

future they will be treated to long
walks, and as soon as some gymna.

Elaboration in Gowns.

Modes of the moment seem as fussy
as ever, and nearly all of them apper-
tain to one or other of the Louis
periods. There is simplicity in effect.
but in reality how different 1t all is!
Gaugings and pufiings and festooned
founces, to say nothing of the fiat
bouillounees now in vogue, spell end
less handwork, and it is really true
that dressmaking just now is neither
more nor less than fine needlework.
More especially is this the case with
mousseline and taffetas frocks-the re-
quired lightness and daintiness or eff
