ARE AFTER JUNKs.
Determined That No Supplies
 Reach kDOrt Arthur.

RF8Ch hOEt
 yhefoo, Sept. 1S.-u1 p. m)-Chi- nese. Russian and Japanese here all agree that the Japanese vessels block adin9 Port Arthur are paying particu- lar attention to Junks which for months past have been trying to smursIe supplies into the fortress and that when they are caught the crews are roughly treated.
 The junks generally are sunk and the men on board taken into Port leDalny. By mistake the Japanese sunk A funk which was carrying delicacies to General Nogo from an admirer, but a part of the cargo was recovered. The Japanese are employing severe measures in this respect with the idea of intimidating blockade runners Russian civilians who have reached here from Port Arthur say that canned corn beef is plentiful there. and that the fresh meat supply consists of twelve horses slaughtered daily Life in the town when no lombard ment Is going on proceeds much as it did in times of peace. Church services are held as usual in the dismantled churches and the band follows the former custom of playing In public twice a week.
 All the Russians have agreed that the Japanese do not occupy positions any further in the inner line of de- fence. The forts which were damaged have been repaired almost as good as new during the comparative quiet of the last eighteen days. These Rus- sians do not believe that the Japanese will succeed in taking the fortress.

BLAZE WAS POPULAR
sELMIANS DESIRED DESTRUCTION
 OF CITY BUILDING.
Omcin1s to Vacate Eyesore October l and People Hoped For Suc- cess of Small Blaze
 Last Night.
Advertiser Bureau.

Advertiser Bureau.
 Selma, Sept IS. The Council chamber building, which will be vacated by the city officials October 1. caught fire about o'clock tonight and the fire department very unfortunately extinguished the blaze before the building was destroyed.
 The blaze originated in a room on the second floor occupied by the night sergeant of police. The damage done was of no consequence and the blaze was extinguished by the department before it had gained much headway. The building. which is an eyesore to every citizen of Selma, will tomorrow be sold at public auction and the pur- chaser will be required to tear down the structure and to remove the debris within thirty days after the building Is vacated by the city officials.
 Much excitement was caused when the alarm was turned in and 1t became known that the City Council building was on fire. Almost without a dissent ing voice the people congregated on the streets and expressed the desire that the building would be totally wiped out by the blaze. The scent of the burning of old bedding and clothes in the building led many to believe that the fire was in the dry goods section.

woman,s Way of Finding Out.

"Women's ways are inscrutable, and they do a great many things that seem! to be utterly without point to men. but 1t has been my experience that time shows they had a pretty good reason for the queer tricks they played us" said F. A. Cobbs, of Montreal, Canada.
 For instance" he continued, my wife has an angelic disposition. She has always had that disposition, and 1t was ont of the many things that att tracted me to her After we became en- gagged, however, on several occasions she did things which seemed to me to be utterly inexcusable. I've got some- thing of a temper. and I would get pretty hot but every time the little trouble passed off-she having gained her point. however. This sort of thing happened several times, but, we were finally married.
 After the ceremony she never gave any symptoms of inconsistency but was always as sweet and aimable as she could be. One day I asked her why she had done these things during our lengagement and if she had done them merely to make me angry.
 "Certainly I did my dear, was her surprising reply. I am prudent wo- man and merely wanted to make sure I could manage you when you were mad"

Unknown Negro Killed.

At an early hour this morning the body of an unknown negro was found on the railroad track near Beach Creek trestle, three miles north of Selma. The negro appeared to be about 45 years old and from his dress he was evidently a farmer. His head was badly crushed and the right arm almost mashed off An inquest over the remains was held at Coroner Bris- lins office this afternoon and the yer dict reached was that the negro came to his death by being struck by a north bound Southern Railway train The man has not been identified and unless his remains are claimed the coroner will bury them tomorrow morning. Thirty cents was found on the negro's person.. but no papers of any kind were found by which he could be identified.
