The fatal injury that came to Mrs. Hagen, wife of District Judge Hagen, of Topeka, Kansas, from using gaso line ought to be horrible warning to every woman. She was cleaning blouse in a basin in the kitchen sink and her hands got very cold as they will in gasoline, so she went to the stove to warm them. The stove of course was all closed and there seemed no danger, but in moment Mrs. HaZ en was in flames and in another the whole kitchen was ablaZe. She ran out into the yard and tried to roll and put out the flames and her son rushed to her with portiere and succeeded in putting out the fire. She was hor ribly burned, too horribly to tell of, and suffered agonies. She was burned as dreadfully as she could be and live, and she begged to be killed that the pain might be ended. It is terrible story to tell, but women need the les son. Gasoline is never safe. A we'll known Fl Paso woman was using gas oine out on the porch and with no light or fire near, but from the friction or for some reason the gasoline burst into flame and burned her. The risk is never worth the cleaning that one can do with gasoline.
 The following is a report of a mining property turned in by local expert: "The lead has bacon and beans on the hanging and pie on the foot and pitches toward the boarding house. 1t is sugar quartz of fine quality, such as Another valuable asset of the lead is a whole stable full of horses, all of which are large and strong and capable of much use; in fact, it is doubtful if they ever could be worked out. That there is money in the property is unques tionable, as the present owners have en any out. The equipment of the mine is very complete. On the hoist there is a two cylinder Armstrong en. zine which can be operated at the nominal cost of 3S per day.
 A bucket is used in the shaft, as it answers not only for hoisting, but also for rushing purposes. Another economical feature is that it iS never necessary to buy waste for the engine; there is an abundance of it in the mine."-Stateline (Utah) Oracle.

here. The Japanese are still working
hard entrenching their front, which
begins to look like a continuous fort.
1t is believed they are preparing seri-
ously to advance, making their front
strong, possibly in order that it may
be held by a small force while the
heavier force engages in fanking
movements. The Japanese have learn
ed by bitter experience not to expect
much from frontal attack They are
obliged, however, to maintain a strong
front to prevent General Kuropatkin
from breaking through their line and
carrying the war to their rear.
There is considerable evidence to in
dictate that the Japanese will make
every effort to force the Russians out
of Mukden, not only for the moral
effect on Europe, but on China as we'll
Mukden is extremely important to

The Japanese continue to receive
reinforcements, and it is believed by
Russian military men that their only
chances for success in an advance
movement lie in that fact.

BIG SENSATION AT BELGRADE.
Newspaper Says Russia Was Re-
sponsible for Regcide.

Belgrade.-A great sensation has
been caused by the statement of the
newspaper Narodillist that it has
proofs to the effect that the regicides
and conspirators are spreading among
the people. The assertion is made that
it was Russia which desired the re-
moval of the Obrenovich dynasty. 1t
is claimed by the paper that a Rus
sian official frequently had a confiden-
tial conference with the principal act
ors of the tragedy.
1t is pointed out by the paper that
every one of the regicides has received
the star of Karageorgevich, and the
statement is now made that they are
soon to receive some distinction from
the car of Russia.
The editor of the paper challenges
the Servian government to start an
action against him, as he says he is
prepared to prove his statements in
the courts.

THE PAST WEEK OF THE WAR.
Japs Make Vicious Attack on Port
Arthur.


During the past week public interest,
which had shifted from the Shakhe
river to the North sea, swung around
to Port Arthur, where a series of ter
rife assaults presaged the possible fall
of the fortress. Reports showed that
the Japanese had been pressing nearer
for two months or more, and on Octo-
Der 26 a series of attacks began that
continued into last week and gave
the Japanese hope that the fortress
might be compelled to surrender No
vember 3, the mikado's birthday AL
though several vantage points were
gained and the sacrifice of life was
immense, Port Arthur at last accounts
was still holding out The prevailing
Opinion, however is that an end of the
Russian resistance is near at hand.
The Russian fleet left Vigo, Spain
on Tuesday, contrary to the supposed
understanding with Great Britain, and
for day London was considerably dis
turbed by sensational stories from Glib
raltar. 1t was reported that the Brit
ish fleet. with decks cleared for &C
ton, was patrolling the straits and
that if Rojestvensky's vessels attempt
ed to continue on the voyage toward
the far east clash might ensue. The
danger seems to have been exaggerat-
ed for the cabinets of both powers
were working for an investigation that
would clear up the North sea mystery
and place the responsibility where it
belongs; and the details of an agree
ment were agreed upon under which
the matter will be left to a board of
inquiry composed of five admirals, one
of whom is to be an American.
At the front in Manchuria there has
been no important change. Each army
is in close touch with the other, and
outpost collisions have been of almost
daily occurrence. Numerous small
brushes have been reported, out of
which has come some slight gain for
one side or the other, but nothing like
general engagement has taken place.
The hostile forces are actually face
to face, in many places being so near
together that it is AMIDST impossible
for either to maneuver. No one can
say how long they can remain in this
unusual position without making ag-
gressive moves that will develop into
great battle.
