The princess has for some time been
looking for Askelad, and as he is hump
to Jay yes or no. Askelad wishes of
course to get there with her and one half
of the kingdom; but this being his first
venture he must try again and again.
He should win her the third time accord
ing to all precedence.
She will not consent now, mainly for
this reason: Askelad should not have
made the born one' into a parody, and
tifully and whistles most rhythmically
thereto-he has placed a certain "he' on
picket duty on the left wing, third line,
third regiment, where ''he" is one too
many, or rather the shadow of the same
"he'' above. If he calls off this shadow
the line will be in good order:
Neither he nor she should be put in
wrong places; for we have seen how it
is apt to go with princesses coming in

Fruit From the Artesian Belt.

Mr.. John G.. Kennedy came up
from Sarita last Saturday and had
with him magnificent proof of the
easy possibilities of the artesian belt
in the shape of a box of fruit
gathered from his own home, La
P2na, near Sarita. The collection
consisted of two varieties of ripe
bananas, three varieties of oranges,
jncluding the Satsuma and Mand-
arin, as well as specimens of lem
ons, hard to surpass by any country
or section. There were also some
very fine lines and pears. Several
persons who have visited Sar;ta
and seen the trees, which grow in
the open without shelter of any
kind, estimate the yield OF lemons
at over 2,O00 to the tree. Mr..
Kennedy also brought up some very
fine specimens OF ribbon cane.

sugar growing countries, as well a.
some Para grass, which cuts over
five tons per acre at one cutting.

REPORTS from the lower country
are that Congressman Garner is
making a gallant fight for re-elec-
ton, and we have no less an au-
thority than Judge Wells for the
prediction that he will be elected
by a substantial majority. The con-
test, however, is interesting, and
Hon. J. 5. NORM, of Bracket, is
fighting as one who thought he had
a chance. The rivals had a joint
debate or two, and then suddenly
they ceased, since which time the
friends of the two candidates have
been voluble in their effort to prove
that the other Teller" is the quit
ter. Men who are familiar with
Congressman Gamers style of
play could not DE easily convinced

ner is making his fight almost I'M
aided this time, he having got but
little if any help from the State
Committee. The hope of the Re-
publicans is in the belief that they
have suffered less than the Demo
Gratis from the operation Of the poll
tax requirement. Two years ago
the vote in the Fifteenth District
was p, 249, and Mr. Gamers
majority over Mr.. Scott was 1855.
This year the poll tax receipts
number 20, $50, so that the Demo
cratic loss from this cause would
have to exceed the Republican loss
greatly if it is to afford a hope to
the Republicans. However, Judge
Wells says this is not the case-and

ed as excellent authority on polit-
ical matters in the principality of

Examination of the ground yesterday

firing have powerful guns. They were
stationed from one-half to ihree-quariers

bushel Of empty shells OF every size and
make were found in the woods. A trail
of blood was found on a rail fence, and
from this it is supposed that at least one
person was wounded. Further trouble
is anticipated.
While martial law has not been de.
clared at Zeigler, the situation closely
approaches it. No one not properly

SEVERE FIGHTING

The severe fighting the past three
days at Port Arthur has resulted in the
japanese capturing the 'crests and
counterscarps and the Russian shelter
trenches near the summit of the Sung
shu Mountain !ort' To finally take the
works will necessitale desperate, deadly
charge.
The japanese have secured strong po-
sitions at Rihlung and Keekwan Moun-
tains. After FIVE hours fierce fighting
and several repulses the Japs drove the
Russians out of the trenches guarding
the approach to the southeast Keekwan
forts.
The Russian War Office claims 10 have
information that Field Marshal Oyama
has drawn largely from his Manchurian
army to reinforce the japanese besiegers
at Port Arthur. The japanese strength
below Mukden is now estimated at l50,-
900 men, against General Kuropatkin's
800, 900.
Desultory fighting continues near Da
Pass, the japanese making re 'eated at
tempts at a turning movement. The
Russians buried $50 japanese dead at
Tsinkhetchen.
A Japanese cavalryman captured by
the Russians says General Kuroki is
alive.
According to information which has
reached the War Office in st. Peters
burg, Field Marshal Oyama's strength
is much smaller than heretofore believed,
tending to confirm the theory that large
force has been withdrawn to assist in
storming Port Arthur. This informa-
ton is to the effect that not much more
than $50. 900 men are now confronting
General Kuropatkin, but the japanese
lines are heavily fortified in order to
check any aggressive movement which
Kuropatkin might undertake long
enough to enable The japanese to hurry up
reiniorcements by rail from the peninsula.
The present activity of the japanese
along the front, these reports indicate,
is only ieigning to convince KurOpatkin
that the offensive is imminent. Should
this important intelligence be absolutely
confirmed, it is possible that the Rus
sian commander-in. chief may himself
attelapt to strike quick blow. Kuro-
patkin is now supposed to have nearly
800. 900 men.
