FROM THE ASHES.
Baltimore Family's Experience Points a
Moral to Residents of Perth Amboy.

The visitor TO Baltimore to-day scarce
~ realiz 8 that less than n year ago the
city was almost destroyed by a memoir
able fire. A similar comparison might
be made by George w. Eall5, one Of the
leading citizens of Baltimore, as to the
change in his own looks.
A short time ago, Mr.. Nally, writing
from his home address, 2213 Barclay ST.,
says: II have been troubled for years
with catarrh and had resorted tosall rem
edies that could be thought Of. My wife
was also afflicted with this terrible disease
but all the treatments we used were an
absolute failure until we tried Hycmei.
We breathed it, and its fragrance, so
clean, pure and bracing, killed all the
catarrhal germs in the head, throat aud
lungs.
The experience of Mr.. Nally and bis
wife certainly points Il moral to all read
ers of the Perth Amboy Evening News
who are suffering from catarrh. 1t shows
how they can be cured Of this frightcul
disease without dangerous stomach dos
irg. c. a. Sexton, the local agent for
Hyomei, has SO much faith in the treat
ment that he gives his personal guarantee
to refund the money III case it does not
benefit. A complete outfit costs one dol
lar, the extra bottles are but fifty cents.
Ask to see the strong guarantee under
which Hyomei is sold.

Want Trolley TO Cranhury.

The question Of a trolley for this place
is again agitating the minds of q number
of Cranbury citizens.
Rev. Adolos Allen is circulating a petit
on which asks the Middlesex County
Board of Freeholders to grant the right
of a trolley company to build a line over
the county stone road from the Midtown
corner of the New Brunswick and Gran
bury road where the present New Bruins
wick and Somerset Traction Company
line now branches off, through this
village to Hightstown.
Nearly every property holder has
signed the petition. AS yet there is no
company back of the scheme, yet Mr..
Allen feels sure that if he can obtain the
consent of the Board of F~reeholders to al
low a road to be built in return for Ger
tain specified obligations he can easily
secure the necessary capital for the
enterprise.

Burlington, Nov. f7:-The New Jersey
Sunday school convention held its open
ing prayer meeting at Z O'Clock yesterday
morning in the Broad street Methodist
church, and the first session for the
secondary teachers was held in the Sun
day school room of the same church.
This was opened by prayer by the Rev.

Failures in Teaching, Hard Condi-
tions to Overcome, SCHOLARS Led to

An address on ''Work With Intermedi-
ate Boys'' was made by Thomas Q. Ives
of Dumont, N. j. He suggested the
forming of a boys brigade in order to
get the boys interested in the work of
the Sunday schools.
Miss Mary Foster Bryner Of Illinois,

of reaching the boys and girls when they
are about 1G years old as they are most
impressionable at that time.
At the afternoon session fully 500 dele

The report has become current in q
number Of places IN this. part Of the

from December As Of each year. to

FOR DOGS.
Much Feeling Among BinEhamton
Dog Owners ut Quarantine.

BINGHAMTON, N. u, Nov. lit
looks as if the state department of ag-
riculture has abandoned the effort to
enforce the dog quarantine in this
county, without officially removing it.
On Tuesday three employees of the de-
partment came TO the city to enforce
the quarantine with shotguns by kill
ing all unmuzzlcd dogs. There has
been much feeling among dog owners,
who think the quarantine should be re-
moved.
The departments men t~elegraphed to
Albany explaining the situation and
received orders TO return to Albany
and make no further effort to enforce
the quarantine. In spite of that the
department officials refuse to officially
raise the quarantine.

AMERICAN ACTION II ASIA.

The American State Department has acted
with Characteristic promptncss. vigor and dis
erection in the matter of the East Asian war. Ii
does not mean 10 NEEDLE Of course. or TO take
sides with either belIigercnt. The obligations
Of neutrality viii be scrupuiously observed. But
il does mean 70 safeguard the legitimate ana
peaceful rights Of this country. That is the pur-
port Of Secretary Hays note 10 Tie European
powers proposing joint notice 10 Russia and
Japan that both during the war and after IL the
neutrality and integrity Of China must be re-
spected. OF the propriety Of such action there
can be no question. Long ago Secretary Hay
proposed 10 the powers the maintenance OF the
same principle, The 'open door" and the terri
torial integrity Of China in time Of peace. and
secured from them their explicit and cordial
assent thereto. Now he simply proposes the
same thing again. True, it is now time OF
war; and Of war waEed largely. no doubt in
China But China is not party TO the war.
She is not one OF the Dclligerents. On the con-
trary. il is understood that she has made, or is
about to make. declaration Of strict neutrality.
In that case she is entitled 10 be treated as
neutral by the powers. and the powers are en-
titled to insist to the belgerents that she shall
thus BE treated.
Such action by our government does not in
fringe in the least upon the principle of neu-
trality between the belliCerents. 1t may be re-
Cardcd by some as unfavorable 10 Russia and
by some as unfavorable 10 Japan. Perhaps II
may be. TO one or the ether. Certainly it is not
meant 10 be 50, and, so far as can be seen, Il
is as likely 10 be favorable or unfavorabe 70
one as 10 the other, so that no matter what its
effect may he America cannot be charged with
partially for either Of them. 1t IS true that
Russia is suspected Of wanting 10 seize and an
mex Manchuria; wherefore this action OF the
United States might be regarded as warning
10 her. But then, too Japan is suspected Of an
intention 10 drive Russia out OF Liao-Tong at
least, and 10 take that part OF Manchuria for
her own as she aimed TO do under the Chinese
treaty Of 1895; so that our action might with
equal Justice be interpreted as n warning TO
her. 1t is, IN fact friendly notice to both Of
them that. however much they may quarrel and
fight between themselves. they must not let
their hghtings infringe upon the lawful rights
Of this and other neutral nations. II is thus
quite void OF offence TO either OF our friends the
belligerents. and IL is gratifying 10 learn that
il is regarded with approving favor by our
other friends the acknowledgement powers Of Eu-
rope. II these latter give Il their assent and
support, as q would seem they should do 10 he
consistent with their former attitude toward
our 'open door" policy, and as it IS intimated
they are likely 20 do. such representations from
such an array OF powers can scarcely fail to
have the intended effect.

the slain" The controversy between the ad-
vocates OF big batteships and those OF small,
swift torpedo boats and cruisers has been
long and animated. This incident at Port Ar
fhur has given 70 Il perhaps The most signih-
cant data available since the beginning. OF
course, i Is not 10 ae regarded as conclusive.
But the object lesson OF the disabling OF bat
teships costing millions OF dollars each by
boats Of one-twenueth their cost is one that
naval authorities must take seriously to their
hearts and minds.
That the Japanese have struck such a blow
Is not. on the whole, surprising. 1t has long
been known that they have been aiming at sea
mower. and that they have accordingly been
having exceptional attention 20 the perfecting
of their navy IN every detail Expert and i'm
martial observers have more than once in late
years testified that in equipment discipline and
all the essential clements OF naval efficiency
the japanese feet in proportion TO its size. Is
the equal Of any and the superior of most
Others. 4 modern warship, whether huge
battleship or a tiny torpedo boat is an instru-
ment Of precision. almost as delicate I'm its de-
tails as n watch: and the Japanese have Tor
ages been famed for their skill in handling the
most precise and delicate tools and machines
II is true. their experience with modern war
sb;ps has been brief Until they purchased
from this country the little Stonewall Jack
son OF 1.3O0 tons. in 1866, and renamed ii the
Adzuma. they knew nothing but anuquated
thinks But they soon got Sir Edward Reed to
build them the Foo SO on the Thames. and
SO drew upon the best shipyards Of the world
for sllch vessels as the Nanlwa and the bo-
shine. which were IN their day naval wonders
and are not yet obsolete. Russia. too, has for
wears peen building up splendid navy, ana
in the two ships which have just met with
disaster she had two OF the finest in the world
Nor are her naval annals inglorious. She won
4 great victory over The Turks az Sinope, ana
her Black Sea feet gave good account OF IL
self AGAINST England and France IN the Crimean
War. But those things were half century
AGO. under far different conditions from those
which now prevail. Russia has not had the ex-
parience in modern naval warfare that Japan
had ten wears ago. nor has she from immemo-
rial times been such a nation Of seamer and sea
fighters. OF course, one victory does not de-
eide a war But this first blow at Port Arthur
may well be regarded as vindicating the conf
dence Of the japanese in their proves at sea-

TIE FIRST BLOW.

Japan has struck the first blow, and she has
struck swiftly and hard. Her night attack upon
Port Arthur apparently resulted in no injury
10 herself, but In a serious loss to Russia. One
Russian cruiser was sunk, and two battieships
the largest and most powerful in the whole
Russian navy, were damaged" by torpedoes
and. according to some reports, driven aground
The extent Of their injury is not yet reported
but II is obvious that almost any damage TO
such a vessel by torpedo must be serious. and
81 seems probable that the ships are lost to
Russia Nor were the japanese contented with
that daShing night attack. They renewed the
conflict 81 the morning, and damaged at least
two more Russian ships. the battjeship Pol
tava and the cruiser Noyik-the latter the
ewiftest vessel In the Russian Ieei-being punct-
ured below the water line. There is also a re-
port OF the capture. uninjured, OF the crack Rus
sian cruiser vsriRg, and one other not posi-
lively identified In the early dispatches. These
make the appalling total OF seven Russian ships
put out OF service with no reported loss at ali
10 the japanese but on the contrary, with a
gain to them OF two good ships. Such changes
II they have actually occurred, viii make the
Russian feet about as hopeiessly inferior 10 the
Japanese as the Spanish feet at Santiago was
20 ours; for Russia viii have only four battle
ships, OF 1920 tons and 1l,07S pounds broad
side. to Japan's six, OF s4.SoO tons and "a 945
pounds broadslde--the japanese weights being
In tonnage only little less and in brOadside
something more than twice the Russian.
Apart from its effect upon the fortunes OF
ihe two belgerents, the incident Is Of intense
interest 10 all naval powers as an Illustration
g the deadly efficiency of torpedoes and tor
3edo boats. Never before has. there been such
ar illustration % il, or indeed an occasion
when such a test was attempted or was pos
sible. II is true that the japanese did disable
witt torpedOes several Chinese ships at Wei
Hai-Wei in the war az ten years ago. But
those Chinese ships were scarcely comparable
with such vessels the RerFizan and Care
witch. and the Chinese OF that day were pre-
sumably not comparable with the Russians OF
today In naval science or in ability 10 watch
Tor the destreyers and TO protect their Sims
against them. II the japanese have thus dealt
with the finest products OF American ana
French shipyards, manned by supposedly ex-
PER- Russian engineers and sailors. II may well
be asked whether any Sattleships are proof
against these swift and deadly ..choosers q.
