KUROK|'S ARMY
/. WINS A VICTORY
DRIVES RUSSIANS FROM FoRTI-
FLED POSITION AT KIAoTUNa.
SEVERE FIGHTING OCCURS
Stubborn Defense Made by the Rus
slams, Whose Losses Are Esti-
mated at ,ooo-Those Of
Japanese at 424.

Toxic. July 23.-Gen. Kuroki, after a
severe fight, occupied Kiaotung only July
49, The place had been fortified by the
Russians, who defended it stoutly. In
the fighting Gen. Kuroki's troops drove
the Russians from their strongly forth
fed position on the Chi river, which is
northwest of Molten pass and east of
Anping, inflicting upon the enemy more
serious losses than they sustained them
selves. The fight began on the 18th
and ended on the 10th. The Japanese
lost 424 men in killed and wounded. The
Russian losses are estimated at 1000.
The Battle.
Gen. Kuroki began his advance early
In the morning of the 18th. He uncov-
cred and followed the enemy along the
Chi river. The Russians seemed to be
retiring to the northward, when sudden
IL two battalions with eight guns turned
and attacked the Japanese advance guard
vigorously. At this point the japanese
suffered before relief came, one com,
pany losing all its officers. At late
hour in the afternoon the Russian posi-
ton was developed. They occupied al
eminence on the banks Of the Chi. This
river guarded their left flank and higf
precipices protected the Russians on the
right. The only approach to their posi-
ton was through a narrow defile. TIT
fighting continued until dark, when thu
Japanese forces bivouacked. The Rus
SLAMS made two counter attacks, blu
were repulsed in each case.

PUTTING IT STRONG.
But Doesn't If Look Reasonable,

This may read as though we were putting 1t a little strong. because 1t is generally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in its chronic form is incurable or practically so. But we have long since shown that Dyspep- sia Is curable. nor is 1t such a difficult matter as at first appears.
 The trouble with Dyspeptics Is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite ex- treme. or else deluging the already overburdened stomach with "bItters." after dinner pills" etc, which invari- ably increase the difficulty even If in some cases they do give a slight, tenn porary relief Such treatment of the stomach simply makes matters worse. What the stomach wants Is a rest. Now, how can the stomach become rested. recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained. This is a great secret and this Is also the secret of the uniform success of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is comparatively new remedy. but its success and popularity leaves no doubt as to It's merit.
 The Tablets will digest the food any way, regardless of condition of stom- ach.
 The suffered from Dyspepsia. accord ing to directions, Is to eat an abundance of good, wholesome food and use the tablets before and after each meal. and the result will be that the food Will be digested no matter how bad your Dys- pepsia may be, because, as before stat ed, the tablets will digest the food even if the stomach is wholly inactive. To l illustrate our meaning plainly. If you take 300 grains of meat. eggs or ordi- nary food and place 1t In temperature of ss degrees. and put with 't one of stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, 1t will di- Eest the IT. eat or eggs almost as per | fectlv as if the meat was enclosed within the stomach
 l The stomach may be ever so weak vet these tablets will perform the work of digestion and the body and brain will he properly nourished, and at the same time a radical. lasting cure ot Dyspepsia will be made because the
 much-abused stomach will be given to soroe extent, much needed rest Yonr druggist will tell you that of all inc many remedies advertised to cure Dvsnepsia none of them have given SC comnIete and general satisfaction a' Stnsrt's Dyspepsia Tablets, and mol Iss -f fin importance in these hard times Ia tna fact that they are also the cheap est and give the most good for th' least money.

SHERIFF OF GENEVA
J. A. JENKINS APPOINTED BY THE
 GOVERNOR.
He Is Named to Succeed G. w. Black Who Gave Up Ohlce Because Son
 Was Elected a Judge.

Acting Governor Cunningham yester- day appointed J. A. Jenkins of Geneva Sheriff of Geneva County to succeed G. W. Black, whose resignation reached the office of the Governor the fore part of last week.
 MT. Black resigned because his son was elected Probate Judge of Geneva County at the last election. He did not believe two important County of- fees should be held by one family.
 Mir. Jenkins, the successor of MT. Black, was highly endorsed for the office. His application was signed by the County Judge, the Chairman of the County Democratic Executive Commit tee and twelve of the fifteen beat com mitteemen. His friends say that he is well qualified to fill the office.
 MT. Black goes out of office after 8 long and faithful service. His admin istration was approved widely and his exalted sense of polIrlcal propriety in vacating one of two offices which would have been in his family has been applauded.

 Colonel Denson brought with him yesterday the necessary transcript and filed the same with the renewed peri- tion with the Clerk of the Supreme Court. He will be heard most likely tomorrow on account of the emergency of the case.
 Frank Duncan was given the death sentence in October, 1901, but escaped from the Jefferson County jail a few months afterwards while an appeal from the decision of the criminal court of Jefferson County was pending be- fore the Supreme Court.
 The petition for a writ of error is the last hope for Duncan.

 Love of nature takes place side by side in Pastor Wagner's heart with love for his fellow w-creatures. Not many men nowadays can confess to have stodo spell bound before a woodland flower, overcome by its beauty and the force of its rare symbolism. It re- minds one of Chaucer and the earlier poets And as he loves the flowers. so the animals of the field and forest awaken M. Wagner's lIveliest interest, and, country-bre though he Is, he still finds an ever fresh pleasure in wan dering about the farmyard. watching the milking of the cows and the butter churning, ready ever to quaff the new milk like a happy child to whom the world is a new experience.
 It is this enthusiasm, this quickness of sympathy, and this alertness that give him so magnetic a personality. In- tensity of life. capacity for keenest en- joyment or keenest sorrow. and a broad tolerance that yet interferes in no way with the loftiest moral ideal are the attributes that have made the author of The Simple Life" power in religion. in philanthropy, and In letters.
