Il Is Possible That Kurops.kIn VIII
Quit Mukden.
lAPS ARE PRESSING FORWARD.
Heading for Shallow Place In Hun
River-When They Cross kuro-
patkin's Line of Communications
Will Be Threatened.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 26.-Absence
of detailed reports from the seat of
war, despite the important character
of events that are believed to be de-
veloping around Mukden, leads to the
supposition that General Kuropatkin
may, after all, not seriously contest
the Japanese advance, and that the
long expected battle at Mukden may
turn out to be merely rear guard
action on a large scale.
General Sakaharoff reports that the
Japanese army is moving from Bensi-
aputze toward Flu pass, village six
miles northeast of Mukden, and near
the right bank of the Hun river The
river at this point Is shallow, and pro-
badly for this reason the locality has
been selected by the Japanese for
crossing.
If the Japanese gain foothold at
Flu pass, General Kuropatkin's posi-
ion at Mukden will be insecure, as
the Japanese will from thence be able
to threaten the Russian line of COM
munication.
Flu pass is only twenty miles north
of Bentisiaputze, but at the present
rate of progress the Japanese will
probably occupy four or five days in
traversing these twenty miles.
The Russian force south Of Mukden
is believed to consist of only one
army corps, which is acting as rear
guard. and is not intended to offer a
serious resistance to the Japanese
Mukden.-Russians are using war
balloons southeast of Mukden to OBJ
serve the movements Of the Japanese.
The line of outposts established by
the Japanese is so effective that not
even the Chinese have been able to
penetrate it. 1t is impossible, there
fore, to say definitely how Marquis
Oyama has disposed his forces. 1t
is believed General Kurokis army
stretches from Bensiht to Bentsia-
putze and the armies of Generals Oku
and Nodzu from Yentai along the high
road and railroad to Shaepu, sixteen
miles south of Mukden, while fourth
army is moving from Dziantchan
across the Da mountains. All those
roads converge at Mukden. OF the
four armies, those of Oku and Nodzu
are nearest Mukden and their pro-
gress will have to be slackened in
order to permit Kuroki and the
flanking columns to have time to
come up. Meantime, Oku and Nodzu
have command of the railroad. Sup
plies of grain and ammunition are car
ried from Yentai over heavy roads
and exposed to capture by Cossack
riders.
There has been an improvement
in the weather at Mukden, which is
of great help to the Japanese.

The God of Love,

1t is not gold of rippled hair,
Like cornfields swept by winds at play;
1t is not cheeks as fresh and fair
AS apple bloom at dawn of day.
It is not these that sing to Love,
And bid him wake so sure, so soon;
That set the skies alight above,
And set him crying for the moon.
It is not heart-gold, pure and bright
AS virgin gold in hidden seams;
1t is not soul as clear and light
AS sunrise in a poets dreams.
1t is not these that give Love food
And drink-the magic wine and bread,
That set. amid his solitude.
The enchanted garland on his head.
Love only knows one god sublime,
The trinity in unity;
And the gods names are Space and Time
And-Opportunity.

place at the towns of Telling and San

Our detachment advanced through

A Hint About the Teeth.

Once a week the teeth should be
cleaned with the finest pumce stone.
Take a little of the very finely pow
dered pumice, and place 1t on the
tooth brush, says the Chicago Daily
News. Brush the teeth lightly, and
remember that while pumice is good
in its way, it will take off the enamel
if used too vigorously. Just how
much of the pumice is used is a ques-
ton of judgment, but women who
lightly touch the teeth with it once
a week are never in need of having
the teeth cleaned at the dentists.

All Guns to Be Resichted.

Plans are being drawn in the bureau
of ordnance at Washington for the re-
sighting of all the guns in the United
States navy. The cost of this work
will be tremendous, but its necessity
was readily realized when called to
the attention of the president and the
orders have already been issued. An
improved variety of sight will be used
and the work will be pushed with all
the rapidity practicable. For the
rapid-fre guns a telescope sight will
be used. of kind that will permit of
continuous aim. Nearly all of the
guns are in need of resighting.

THE PROBLEM CLUB
HEARS PROF. INGALLS,

Last evening Prof. ingalls, gave an
address before the Problem Club on
the Civil Service Examinations" He
spoke of the political influence which
was used to secure positions before the
Civil Service Act was passed in 1883.
How when there was a change of par
ties there was a complete change of
civil servants, not according to ability
to do their work, but according to their
influence in politics. The speaker
quoted Garfield as saying that nearly
one-third Of his time was spent in in
terviews with political office-seekers.
He said under the present system, Of
ficials could devote all their time to
their duties and the longer they were
in the positions the more efficient they
became. Mr. Toeilner thought that a
young man just from college had the
advantage in passing the examina-
tions. Mr.. Taggard asked why ex-
animation were held here for ap-
pointments at Washington and was an
swered that the Government wished to
give every CitIZCi GAdd1 opportunity
for the appointment.
Mr.. Dunlop held that though the ex-
aminations might be good yet politics
had much to do in the appointments.
Mr.. Martin thought that the system
had a tendency to make a man think of
fair salary and a good time rather
than of business and his country.
Mr.. Day spoke forcibly of the de-
lay and trouoie business men had in
getting their goods at the customs de-
partment
Mr. Owens said that though the sys-
tenn may not be perfect, we had nothing
better.
Mr.. Law held that the examinations
were fair and practical, that they did
away with great deal of political cor
ruption, that better men We're secured
for positions and that the system made |
these officials more honest and more |
patriotic. He would like to see all the |
teachers of the United States, civil ser |
wants. He instanced the excellent |
school system which was being worked |
up in New York on lines of civil SER
vice.
A hearty vote of thanks was tender
ed to Mr.. Ingalls, for his paper

CONGREGATIONALISTS
DRAW COLOR LINE
Narrow Escape From Serious contro-
versy Over Negro Delegates

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Oct. 15.-There
was suggestion of race differences of
the South in the business of the Con-
gregational National council today in
its action on the report of the creden-
tials committee. Two delegations from
Alabama had presented themselves, one
from the Congregational association,
colored, the other from the Congrega-
tional convention, white. Rev. Blaneh-
ard. of Wheaton college, Illinois, Offer
ed a resolution for the seating of the
regular delegates only on the ground
that their organization was first in ex-
istence. A motion to adopt this failed
after a promise of acrimonious discus
sion and further controversy was pre-
vented by seating both delegations.
This afternoons proceedings included
the report of the committee on the
federation of mission societies. Rev.
Frank Fitcn, of Buffalo, reported that
the chief need was confidence in and
support of the several societies and
recommended that there be no attempt
at federation except by slow, rather
than quick methods. The report was
adopted and reconsidered and the
whole matter referred to a special COM
mittee to report on Monday
The Sunday School society reported
that 168 new churches had grown out
of the Sunday schools organized by its
missionaries and 1,138 had been aided
from the beginning in their Sunday
school life.
