TouIon In Flames Which Seem to Be
Beyond Control.
Toulon, France, Aug. 8.-Fire broke
out in the arsenal here, originating in
the extensive stores. The fire spread
rapidly and now threatens to embrace
entire blocks of buildings.
The troops were at once called out
and mustered in the streets. The pre-
feet of the maritime port is organic
ing assistance and admirals and gen.
erals are helping in the work at the
pumps.
A division of the reserve squadron
has been called upon to aid. Within
an hour after the fire broke out the
entire population was aroused. Guns
are being fired as signals for help,
which is coming in from the whole
countryside. The flames are spreading
with the greatest rapidity.

Probably a BeIated Story

st. Petersburg, Aug. S.-A telegram
from Chefoo dated Aug. says that
according to Chinese information a
fierce battle was fought on the land
side of Port Arthur Aug. 5. The jap
anese are reported to have been re
pulsed with g eat loss the killed alone
being estimated at 10000, while the
Russians lost about 1000. The tele
gram says that Lieutenant General
Stoessel was personally in command
and that the conduct of the Russian
troops was splendid

Toxic, Aug. 8.-General Kuropat-
from the LAO Tung peninsula with
out disaster has elected much praise
from the Japanese. The concentrating
of his army at KaichOu at one time
seemed certain to involve it in disas-
ter 1t was popularity believed that a
generally decisive battle would either
be fought at Tatchekiao or at Hal
cheng. 1t is considered here that Ku-
ropatkin sacrificed his prestige by
abandoning an immense territory with
out a battle. He was forced to aban-
don or destroy valuable stores and mu-
nitiOns of war when the transportation
was almost the most serious problem
to the Russians. He also impaired the
morale of his army, but he preserved
his men and guns. 1t is evident that
he had hoped and planned to check
the Japanese at Tatchekiao. Then af-
ter holding the enemy in check, it is
believed to have been his purpose to
concentrate his remaining force at
Lao Yang and to strike Kuroki.
The unexpected loss of the Russian
left at Tatchekiao and the appearance
of the Japanese Takushan army on the
flank forced the abandonment and sur
render, without a fight, of Yinkow,
Haicheng and New Chwang. 1t is gen.
orally believed that the crisis will
come shortly at Lao Yang, and that
Kuropatkin Will be forced to give bat
tie, whatever his present purpose may
be. General Okus and the Takushan
armies are pressing northward and
General Kuroki is close at hand, ready
to take any part necessary in the gen
eral Japanese play.
The possession of Yinkow (the port
of New Chwang) has enormously sim.
plified the transportation problem for
the Japanese: 1t gives their two arm
les freedom of movement which they
have heretofore not possessed. The
Japanese are speedily repairing the
railroad, which the Russians failed to
seriously damage in their hasty re.

nous losses. The garrison's enthusi.
asm was extraordinary. The fleet as
sisted in the defense by bombarding
the Japanese flank.
Our losses during the three days
were about $500 men and 40 officers
killed or wounded. According to state
ments Of Chinese and prisoners the
Japanese lost as many as 10000.
Their losses were SO great that the
enemy has not had time to remove the
dead and wounded"
The authorities do not divulge the
source of General Stoesseps report,
though it is understood that it came
by way of Chefoo. The fact that the
Japanese are in possession of the coun-
try as far north as Haicheng renders it
unlikely that it can be the land route.
Though ten days old, his report is
taken as satisfactory refutation of
the recently repeated rumors Of the
fall of Port Arthur

Why should any man in good health
cease work at 60, when at that period
In most men their mental powers have
reached their highest training; they
can accomplish more with less exertion
than at any other period in their lives?
They do not work so hard as at 40,
because they have learned to produce
the same results without friction; ex-
pertness has taken the place Of youth
full, sometimes blind enthusiasm and
energy, part of which is wasted in
making mistakes.

IN PRAIRIE LAND.
Editorial Correspondence

MOOSE JAW, ASSlHIDOAd
Farmers, Review. Chicago. July %, 1913
Most of the prairies in the United
States have ceased to exist Man has
broken them up with orchards, forests
and farm buildings. But in Western
Canada the prairies still stretch grand
ly from horizon to horizon as yet IN
married by the hand of man, save
where the iron road has been laid. To
. city man there is something de-
liciously restfM about the vast grassy
solitudes.
Numerous clumps of trees mark the
course Of the Assiniboine River, which
keeps in sight OF the railroad for some
distance.
Grass is one of the notable things
about all the landscape of Western
Canada. 1t is a remarkable fact that
the entire length of the Canadian Pa
cific railway from it's eastern terminus
to the Rocky mountains is over plains
where grass grows. The sage brush
appears at some points, but never to
the exclusion of grass. There is thus
not mile of this country that cannot
be used for some agricultural purpose
either for ti1ling or ranching.
Moose Jaw is a town of over 1000
inhabitants and one of the most i'm
portant places in Assiniboia, being the
center of a very good farming coun-
try and great grain and stock ship
ping point.
Near Moose Jaw agriculture and
ranching go hand in hand; for near
the town was seen herd of beef cat
tie several hundred in number. On
another side was seen a good sized
herd of dairy cows, the property OF the
citizens in the town.
"In riding over the prairies we saw
many good fields of alfalfa. The great
need Of the country is timber, which
grows readily where planted, as was
demonstrated by the shelter belts on
some of the farms, and the trees on
the residence lots in the town.
"Stories were told the writer Of men
who last year cleared from their wheat
crop more than the land on which II
was grown originally cost them. This
Is easy to believe in view of the large
crop and high price for wheat last
year.-Henry F. Thurston."
