RUST IN THE FIELDS
Perham Thinks the Situation May
Have Been Exaggerated.

Renville, Mimi, Aug. 4.-The wheat
harvest along the Minnesota river has
started, and will be general in this county
by the end of the week. Rust has dam
aged the grain trihe,, but farmers, re-
port that the yield will be better than
last year. Oats are being cut fast. The
rust has done more damage to that grain,
and the yield will not be up to the aver
age - E
Perham, Mimi, Aug. 4.-Reports of
rust in wheat in this vicinity seem to
have been exaggerated. Many say the
wheat is too far advanced to suffer much
damage. Farmers have begun cutting in
some places, and say the crop is fine.
Webster, S. D., Aug. 4.-Railroad Off
Gals and grain men have been making
an examination of fields III this vicinity
and report some rust in wheat and oats.
Opinions differ as to the extent Of the
damage, but as the berry is almost ma
tured the general opinion prevails that the
loss will be small.

FLEEING TOWARD MUKDEN

KurOpatkin Thought to Have Adam
doned Defense of Liao-yang.
Special to The Journal.
Paris, Aug. 4.-The Petit Journal
reports that 10000 Japanese troops
have landed at Yin-kow port Of Niu-
chuang, and are advancing rapidly in
the direction Of Liao-yang. A force
marching from Yin-kow would take
the Russians on the right flank.
A suggestion that Kuropatkin may
relinquish the idea of seriously defend
ing even Liao-yang, where enormous
stores must have accumulated, re-
ceives support from the st. Peters
burg correspondent Of the Echo de
Paris, who reports that a large num-
Der Of troops have evacuated Lao
yang and are retiring on Mukden,
while during the past week train
loads Of provisions and ammunition
have been dispatched daily to the lat
ter place.
News from official and unofficial
sources shows Kuropatkin is retiring
north with all haste. He is fighting a
stubborn rearguard fight, hoping to
avoid being cut off before he can reach
Liao-yang, but there is little hope OF
his putting an end to retreat before
Hardin is reached.

Causes That Lead to Dyspepsia
Properly Called Catarrh

The reason for this Is that dyspepsia
in a great majority Of cases depends upon
catarrh Of the stomach. sassl1 d
Catarrh Of the stomach may have been
set UP by an extension Of the catarrh
from the throat or head.
Catarrh Of the stomach is frequently
produced by late suppers, indigestible diet,

London, Aug. 4.-The Birmingham

that another messenger left London

Play Is Mediocre.
Mediocre golf is indicated by the
scores Of yesterday in the first round
of the medal play, thirty-two holes.
This was doubtless due to the trouble
some cross wind which sprung up in
the morning and increased in strength
until well after o'clock in the eve
ming. The wind and the uncertainty
in driving led several Of the confess
tants to lay aside, temporarily, their
wooden drivingclubs and resort to the
cleek to avoid the slicing and pull
ing. The old guard of the TRANSMITS
sissippi contingent showed up we'll.
Local players carried off the honors
Of the day SO far as low scores were
concerned, Jaffray turning in the low
card, with 100 strokes for the thirty
two holes, while Bend Of st. Paul,
his nearest competitor, was one to the
worse on the days play.
Both of these men played a master
ly game. Jaffray's system Of practice,
whereby he worked daily for several
weeks before the opening Of the tour
ney, was vindicated. He played his
game without fault or waiver. On
driving he showed his usual accura-
cy, and in working on the green, de-
veloped his usual careful and accurate
play. On form, Bend Of Town and
Country is without a peer among the
seventy five odd contestants who
played. Bend is a finished player in
all respects and never offends the de-
mands Of form, no matter whether
at the tee or working under stress
in a hazard. His golf is proving a
study even for some of those who
have been in the game for years.
Cady and Fairbanks showed up
well, but Fairbanks, finishing late in
the afternoon, was dissatisfied with
his showing. Warren Dickinson, Des
Moines, from whom better things
| were expected, turned in a card OF
1874. He fell down in the morning
| round, but steadied and showed bet
| ter readings in the afternoon play
The play developed that there is moth
| ing in the contention, frequently made
on the opening day, that local players
| would have a big advantage on Mini
kahda links. Jaffray did finish with
a low score, but Bend, while in g
sense familiar with the course, Is ac-
