CHINESE SAVE JAPs.

CHINESE SAVE JAPs.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 11.-Lieut.
Gen. Sakharoff sent a dispatch to the
general staff today communicating
report of Lieut.. Gen. Zassalitch, dated
May 10, as follows:
Troops which appeared to be a di-
vision of the Japanese guard have been
advancing for the last two days from
Feng Wang Cheng westerly in the di-
rection of Hal Cheng. 1t is reported
that a Japanese force, consisting of
about a division of infantry, intended
to march on SaimadZa with forty guns
and 1900 cavalry.
From reports received from the
River Dazaw, it may be concluded that
the Japanese army is concentrated in
three groups, the two southern groups
being on the lower section Of the River
Tayang, at Hondouhanya, on the left
bank of the river at Dayan and at
Donamyo, in the same locality, and
the northern group opposite Habol1na,
on the road from Feng Wang Cheng to
Salidza, fourteen to sixteen miles from
Feng Wang Cheng.
"It is difficult to obtain information
from the local Chinese. In one case we
discovered that the Chinese had warn
ed Japanese troops of an ambuscade
which had been arranged by Co.'S
sacks"

ST. PETERSBURG, May 11.-Gen.
Kuropatkin has telegraphed to the en-
peror that a train loaded with war
material from Lao Yang has arrived
at Port Arthur. Gen. Kuropatkin's dis
patch says;
"Pulen- cheng station is occupied by
our frontier guards and the damage to
the railway by the japanese as far as
SanchiliDu has been repaired. All the
work was carried out under the SUI
pervision of Lieut.. Col. Spiridonoff, of
the Fourth railway battalion. This gall
liant officer undertook to get through
to Port Arthur train full of ammuni-
ton which had arrived at Lao Yang
after the landing of the Japanese at
Pitsewo. Every preparation was made
to blow UP the train in case Of neces-
sity to prevent Its falling into the
hands of the Japanese. The task was
carried out and the self-sacrifice of the
men of the Fourth railway battalion
was crowned with complete success.
shortly after 4 o'clock in the after
noon the train arrived at jim Shau
station (forty miles from Port Arthur)
where 1t was handed over to Gen
Jokoff, who Immediately dispatched it
under proper protection to Port Ar
thur. Lieut.. Spiridonoff returned on a
locomotive"

writer OF stirring plays and one OF the
best OF his plays is Through Fire and

OF the rail In four acts and is presented
here under the direction OF the James h.
Wallick Amusement company
There are many lovely characters por-
trayed and some very good scenery as
we'll as excellent mechanical effcoth. The
action OF the piece is sufficiently lively
though there is commendable order and
an absence OF rush and hustle, which In
similar plays often mar the effect.
The plot Of Through Flood and Flame"
II carefully worked out and the charac-
ters are well portrayed by the very good
company which Is headed by Daniel Vim

the close attention OF an audience and
yesterday afternoon and evening Il was
received with marked favor by large au-

and therefore exceedingly pleasing. His
work met with the emphatic approval IL

To the Editor of the Record.
The wolf or coyote is q menace to
the stockraiser, and the state has
placed a bounty upon the destruction
Of these animals. Previous to this
the county commissioners, in compli-
ance with numerous petitions by In
terested stockraisers, had voted a
bounty on wolves Of 50 per head, which
Of late has been reduced to 81 per
head.
The grain-producing localities of our
county are constantly enlarging and
displaoing the stock industries at
least those of the large holders. The
gophers are consequently on the In
crease, and anybody cognizant Of the
ability of gophers in this respect
knows what such increase means.
Would it not be reasonable lift to
the husbandman to allow q gopher
bounty, to induce the youngsters to
lay for this wary rodent and hang his
tail upon the fence?
/ It would, In fact, be blessing for
our Flickertail State II our Statesmen

ling nature in news of the war be-

stringent Is the censorship on both
sides that nothing material is allowed
to reach the outside world. 1t seems
as though we shall not be able to
know much about this war until its
history shall haye been written after
its conclusion. All the rpmors are
favorable to the japanese, who seem
to be oyerrunning Korea in every di.
rection. The war-ships Of the brown
people plow the seas wherever they
please, while the Muscovite craft dare
not leave the protection afforded by
the big guns of their forts. Port
Arthur has been bombarded again,
and it is reported that there was
much damage done to the works and
the town, and that there was consid.
erable loss of life on the part Of the

A HEADING to a Chicago dispatch
in the Minneapolis Tribune reads,
"Poles for Japan.". We thought it
referred to the building OF a telegraph
line in the Orient, but on perusing the
body Of the article we found that it
chronlcled the doings of a meeting of
Polish-American citizens in Chicago,
called to provide ways and means for
sending a Polander contingent to aid
the Japs.
