DIGGING IN ANCIENT RUINS.

Interesting and valuable anchseo-

aud not far distant from the estuary OF
the Dneiper. This ancient city was 3

q great center for Greek trade with
the interior. IL Is generally maintain
ed among archaeological authorities
that a trade route extended from Oibis
across country 10 the northern sez. and
when g find OF ancient Greek coins
was made Il was oontended 10 be sub
stantial proof OF the fact Recently.
however. II was proved that these coins
were spurious
oibia was destroyed by the Ge;se
about 20 to 90 b. C.. but IL revived
and when IL was visited by Dion Chry-

a 1ourishing city. The excavations
that are now IN progress upon the site
OF this city are being carried out by
NJ. Forms korski under the auspices OF

ing extensive portions OF the walls and
foundations OF the original city. which
date back from the seventh century.

that OF the ruins OF ancient cities ex-
carated In vsrsous parts OF Greece.

Toxic, August 40 a. m.-The Japa-
nese are hourly awaiting tidings of a
victory at Port Arthur, with more in
terest and eagerness h heretofore
displayed during the war. From a po-
litical, stratcgical and sentimental
standpoint the position of the Russian
force and naval base is considered of
paramount Importance by the Japa-
nese. 1t is known that the Japanese
moose about the besieged city is grad
uaIly tightening. The Japanese guns
are pouring shells into town the dimin-
ishing the city n it is felt here that
the critical hour is fast approaching.
But the public here is ignorant of the
hour when the final assault will be
made and also Of the details of the
work already lone around Port Arthur.
1t is believed that the fire from the
japanese batteries will compel the Rus
sian fleet to leave the harbor and accept
battle from Admiral Togo. 1t is be-
coming proverbial that the japanese
infantry will go anywhere and will re-
fuse to retire, no matter how great their
losses may be. 1t is believed tina Port
Arthur could have been taken before
this time with a heavy sacrifice of life,
but if it is evident that the military
leaders are working to effect the re-
duction and capture the fortress with
the minimum loss of life. There will be
no charges of great masses of infantry
until the artillery has finished the task
of silencing the Russian guns.
The story is current to the effect that
the Emperor has expressed the wish
that the capture shall be effected with
the smallest possible sacrifice of life,
hence the care and precision taken by
the Japanese in approaching the Rus
sian licenses and the extensive use of
the larger engines of the war with
which to clear the way
