A THRILLING DIVE.

The chief outdoor attraction. of the Elks big fair apd carnival will be the hair-raising dive of seventy-five feet by John McMahon. MT McMahon has just finished a brilliant engage ment at the St Louis exposition and comes here from the Ohio State fair at Columbus. Besides this frightful plunge into a tlaree-foot deep tank of water, the performer will turn dou- ble sonersauIt, once forward and again backward. Thousands will see this startling exhibition which will be given each day next week at a promi- nent place in the heart of the city. The big main book is being fast dis tributed and the committee will be glad to furnish all more that are need ed. B. B.

 Shrapnel fell near General Kuropat- kin He showed desperate energy and even in the darkest hour remained hopeful.
 A Tokyo report says there is a strong appeal for peace in the ap- palling tragedy which is now under enactment in Manchuria. Both ar- mics have fought ferociously for 8 week, and desperate fighting still con- tinues.
 The preliminary reports indicate that been either killed or wounded. the lar ger portion of them being Russians since the armies of the two belligereut closed in combat
 Even tlfe Japanese, to whom ths great victory is of paramount impor tance, seem to be shocked by the slaughter of their enemies.
 A dispatch from the Russian army of the center via Mukden says that after six days of the hardest kind of fighting this section of the Russian army has fallen back on the ShAkhe river and is now holding position on the north side of that stream. The fighting. which commenced shortly after noon Oct. 9, has been In progress continu, ously ever since.
 On Saturday the fighting recon. menced at daylight, the boom of guns being distinctly heard in Mulzden. The whole Russian army is slowly retiring and fighting every inch of. the way. There appears to be no danger of any part of the army being cut of.
 Tn an informal talk which core spondent had with General Kuropat- kin in the field just before the fighting commenced he spoke in glowing terms of the bravery of the Japanese, saxing that they were a gallant foe and also that they were most correct in the ob servance of the rules of war. In this respect he said it was the most pleas ant war he had ever been engaged in.
 A Tokyo report says that according to statements made by Russian prison CTS, General Kuropatkin was ordered by Emperor Nicholas to make a stand at Mukden and to assume the aggres sive as speedily as possible in order tG relieve the Port Arthur garrison. This order. the prisoners say, reached Muk- den on Sept. 27, and General Kuropat- kin in obedience to it began his 'disas- trous advance.
 The latest Mukden reports from the battle are of Sunday afternoon and evening, when the Russians were car rying on heavy rear guard fight, evi. dently retiring on Mukden. Generals Oku and Nodzu were concentrating for another blow on the Russian right, where the fighting is described as hay. ing been furious. General Nodzu is re. ported to have been wounded seriously, but this cannot be confirmed.

VAUDEVILLE.

The most expensive headline attrac- tion and the most expensive accom- panying bill that Manager PoH has yet offered at the Jacques are giving the first performance of their engagement this afternoon. This headline attrac- ton is made up of the twelve cham pagne dancers from ''The Silver Slip per-" who are appearing by permission of John c. Fisher, the owner and man. ager of that production. As is well known to theater-goers these dancing girls and men were the sensation of t"The Silver Slipper and had more than any one thing to, do with making that brilliant musical comedy the great success 1t proved to be in this country. AIr Fisher brought them over from England and is permitting them to ap- pear this season in vaudeville. Be. cause of the royalties and salaries the act is one of the very highest priced ones in vaudeville and 1t is not with any expectation of financial profit that MT Poli sends them here; for even should the Jacques be packed to over-
 flowing at every performance there would still be little or no margin for profit His liberality, therefore, in sending the girls here will be appre- ciated. In the accompanying bill we have William H. Pascoe, Helen Mae Wilcox and company in Edmund Days playIet Love and War;" an act that has been headlined all summer in the New York vaudeville houses. Old fa- vorites appear in MT and Mrs Allison, who present their funny Swedish skit k..Minnie from Minnesota" and Leroy and Woodford in their rapid fire talk are likewise prominent headliners. In addition the bill includes Cunningham and Lord, Al Careton, W. J. Kurtis and aflis two dog wonders and the cleo trograph. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, la- ! dies 10.

SLAUGHTER TO BRING PEACE.
Every Interest of Humanity Now
 Cries Out For Peace.

EVeEy Interest 01 AumAmhry NOW
 Cries Out For Peace.
 TOKYO, Oct. 17.--A member of the Japanese diplomatic corps in an inter- view with correspondent here said:
 "I believe the world will recoil from the sickening slaughter of this battle. Every interest of humanity demands the adjustment of the differences be- tween the two nations and the procla- nation of peace. The situation be- tween the two belligerents is delicate one, but what splendid triumph for diplomacy it would be if peace could be arranged. It seems to me that the question of honor is no longer involved. If Russia feels that such question is involved surely the heroic and success full defense of Port Arthur and the val or shown by Russian soldiers on the fields of Manchuria should forever de termine the quality of Russian cour- age. Russians should remember that the distance dividing her strength and the limitations of her railway are his torical factors in this war. These fac tors are generally known. They are appreciated by everybody and are looked upon as faults"

HEART OF MARYLAND"

David Belasco's drama of love and war, "The Heart of Maryland" will again be seen at Polls on Thursday evening The play has won mernor- able place in the heart interest of play -goers, and everywhere it has ap- peared and re-appeared with unaIbated popular success. 1t is play of human emotions, of the power and courage of woman's love, of the settlements and clanlor Of camp and field in warfare, an epitome of the life of men and wo- men of our time as we know them. Any one of it's vividly realistic climax es. and above all the startling scene III the belfry of the old colonial church tower, would insure the success oi an ordinary play.

BITS FOR HoUSEKEEPERS. Variety of Information Which May Bs Found Useful in Their
 Work.

A Newport woman is credited with having started the vogue of using old time garden flowers for table decora- ton. She has charming old-fash- toned garden, where dahlias, holly hooks and other of the brilliant favor ites of our grandmothers grow. When she began decorating her dinner table with big bowls of double pink holly. hooks other fashionable women in- stantly recognizeds the charm of the lovely old flower, and abandoned their American Beauties. at least for sum p1er wear. os AS
 Some one has made clever discov- cry about hemming table linen. Hand hemmed 1t must be. of course: but, thanks to this bright idea, the machine can still be made to do the greater part of the work. Here is the suggestion: Have your tablecioth ready as if to sew by machine, and turn the hem all along with the hemmer, but without threading the needle. This turning in of the hem is, every one knows, the most lAborious part of the task. With this accomplished 1t is a comparative ly easy matter to complete the sewing by hand.
 Old people often make the mistake of coddIing themselves too much, says g physician in What to Uat. Thus they cause 8 weakening of the vital forces before the advance of age has done so. Nature never intended that a man should be put into hothouse at 60 and kept there as delicate plant. Too much soiicitude about the health of such a person may be the actual cause of death. The vitality of the person may be. somewhat lessened at 60, but the man or woman whose health has received fair amount of attention Is not by any means ready to be shelved at that age. All that is required Is a i little lessening of the burden Of life and little more care of the health. Add no water, either hot or cold. to i form the gravy of roast beef. While this answers very well for the white meats and poultry, it is much better to put the meat into hot oven and gradually reduce the heat, so that it's natural juices exude, which are the best for basting 1t. Dredge with pep per first, then with flour, adding salt only after the crust of the meat is well formed. A little grated onion is considered to improve the flavor. Beef
 thus roasted will be found to yield a l quantity of delicious 4.plate gravy
 upon being carved.

SKY FARM"

The pretty rural play 'tSky Farm
 will be given two performances at Polrs Wednesday afternoon and ey en- ing, and the success it made on its previous engagements here promises to be repeated. The play is consid- cred the equal of, if not superior to those other great successes of MT Kid der, "A Poor Relation" and Peaceful Valley" which that author furnished the late Sol Smith Russell. 1t suc- ceeds with a great mass of theater- goers probably because of its super abundance of fun and love-making. It has given the lkeenest satisfaction to thousands of the best class of theater patrons and is destined to throng the house here. Sale of seats tomorrow.
