Russian War Nurse Seeks Her Cap.
tured Lover.
WAS CAPTURED BY CHINESE.
A Young Russian Officer Fell In Love
With a Pretty Nurse, Who Recipro'
Gated His Affections Fully.

Che Foo, Nov. a romantic story
develops around Miss Corelle, the Rus
sian war nurse, who is on her way to
Japan. She refuses to talk, but rell-
able authority says her capture by the
Chinese bandits, who took her into the
Japanese lines, was part of her scheme
to find her lover. The first reports said
Miss Corile had voluntarily entered
the Japanese lines. This now seems
to be incorrect Miss Corelle, 1t is
now said, was nurse during the Boxer
rebellion, and won the Stanislaus
medal. During that war she was
wounded in the arm and received the
st. George medal because she con-
tinued to work when her wound was
dressed. She is remarkably hand
some woman Of 81 years of age. A
young Russian officer fell in love with
the pretty nurse, who reciprocated his
affection fully. Recently this officer
was among the missing, and it was be-
lieved he was wounded or a prisoner
among the Japanese. In order to lind
him it is alleged Miss Corelle strolled
from the Russian camp and very cheer
fully allowed some Chinese bandits to
capture her. This was about ten days
ago. The next step in her scheme was
to become Japanese prisoner or reach
their lines. The bandits, it is asserted,
allowed her to communicate with the
French consul at New Chwang, follow
ing which detail of Japanese soldiers
reached their camp and Miss Corelle
was taken to New Chwang. She tried
to secure permission to go to Japan
and search for her lover, but the
Japanese gave her twenty-four hours
in which to leave the town, suspecting
her of being a spy.
A dispatch to the Associated Press
from General Oku's headquarters via
Che Foo said that woman Red Cross
nurse had entered the Japanese lines
Sunday last, surrendering and request
ing to be sent to Babuyama to nurse
the Russian prisoners there. She said
she was the daughter of Russian
colonel and that she had been sent to
Japan to care for the officers at Ma
buyama. 1t was added that her wish
had been granted.

CANNOT SELL FLOUR.
And Kansas Millers Meet to Seek for
a Remedy.

Wichita, Kan, Nov. pa called
meeting of the Southern Kansas Mil
lers' association was held here at
which about fifty of the largest mills
in Kansas were represented. The
meeting was called for the purpose of
discussing the present condition of the
flour market which the millers say is
the most unsatisfactory that it has
been in years.
In this portion of the state mills
that formerly run night and day are
now running only during the day.
Secretary Stevens stated that they
could not export under present con-
ditions and that in the United States
the market was so oversupplied that
it was practically dead. Owing to
the price of wheat the foreign mar
kets cannot afford to buy the -four.
No definite action was taken, but
the association will encourage a
stronger effort for export business.

MORE ARMENIAN TROUBLE.
Killing and Looting and People Fear
Another Massacre.

London, Nov. pa serious state
of unrest continues in Armenia, where
killing and looting prevails, according
to letter received in London today
by the Bible Lands Missionary Aid
society from DR.. Reynolds of the
American board of foreign missions.
Writing from Van October &c, DR..
Reynolds says:
Both the political and economical
conditions are very unsatisfactory.
Poverty has greatly increased, bust
ness is pretty much at standstill,
and to crown all, the revolutionists
are so much in evidence the people
are in constant fear lest another
massacre be precipitated. At the be-
ginning of September Van was
brought to the very verge of massa-
ere and more recently an important
village has been looted and burned
with twenty or more persons killed.
So you see the prospects for the win
ter are far from bright"

BIRD ON FISHING HOOK.
scotchman's Catch More Than He Was
Looking For.


Birds are often caught with fishing
lines. Swallows and martins seize the
anglers fly. Albatross are fished for
in the southern ocean from the stern
Of an Australian clipper. But it does
not often happen that a bird takes a
hook and is hauled up from far below
the surface of the sea. This was the
catch made by a Scotch fisherman u.s.
ing long line baited with whiting.
He was surprised at the weight OF his
capture before he brought 1t to the
surface, but still more astonfShed
when he saw that he had hooked a
great northern diver, which had seized
the whiting many fathoms below the
surface. He managed to get the bird
which weighed as much as eight
pounds, into the boat, and tried to get
it off the hook. 1t retaliated by dart
ing at his face with it's bayonet-like
beak and split the skin of his fore
head from the eyebrows to the hair,
after which it badly pierced his hands
before he killed it with stretcher.
These divers have been caught in nets
set thirty fathoms deep.

THE BURTON CASE.
Briefs In The Case Have Already Been
Filed,

Washington, Nov. 25.-Briefs con-
tanning the arguments of counsel for
Senator Joseph R. Burton of Kansas
were filed in the United States SUI
preme court The court has advanced
the case for hearing on Monday, the
2Sth instant.
Counsel for Senator Burton contend
that the judgment of the court below
should be wholly reversed. They in
sisted that the United States was not
interested in question whether
fraud order should issue against the
Rialto Grain & Securities company,
and that correctly the lower court
should have sustained the demurrer
to the Indictment or should have grant
ed a motion in arrest of judgment or
directed a verdict for the defendant.
Counsel held there was no evidence to
establish the guilt of the defendant
and that the court erred in refusing
to direct a verdict of not guilty.
The defendant, it is contended, dur
ing the time Of his employment by
the Rialto company did not even know
that an inquiry was before the post
office department as to whether a
fraud order should issue and he never
rendered any service having any re-
ference to the issuance of fraud or
der. 1t is maintained that the St.
Louis court, under the constitution,
had no jurisdiction over offenses based
on the checks to Senator Burton which
the facts at the trial showed were
made in Washington and not in st.
Louis; that no services were perform
ed by Burton before the postoffice de-
partment for the salary which was
handed to him in cash in st. Louis on
March &c, 1908; that the court erred
in trying Burton when the Senate was
in session, and also in pronouncing
sentence of fine and Imprisonment
against him to be executed at time
when the Senate was in session.

DETACHMENT is RETIRING.

Sinisintin.

Mukden, Nov. ga Russian de-
tachment occupying Da pass has re-
tired before a Japanese column one
thousand strong. The Japanese are
reported to be advancing towards
Sintsintin.
Berlin-A dispatch to the Lokal An
zeiger from Mukden under today's
date says:
1.-THE reconnaissance fights have as
sumed a more violent character dur
ing the past few days. Particularly
hot was the fighting on Poutiloff, Lone
Tree hill, where the Japanese were
repulsed with the loss of over 100
killed. All signs indicate that great
events are imminent. The road to
Sintsintin, owing to the excellent pat
rol service, is quite safe from Chinese
bandits, thus guaranteeing unhindered
communication with Tien Tsin and es-
tablishing a second line of intercourse
with the outside world.
THE health of the troops is ex-
cellent. The Russians admire the
clean lines, perfect order and equip
ment of the Japanese. One does not
see any trace of race hatred. 1t is a
fact that the Japanese return through
French mediation all valuables found
on dead Russians. This has made a
deep impression here and is recipro-
Gated"

PENAL STATISTICS
Of the Probate Court for
Last Year.

The criminal business in the prohat
court for the year ending June 80
1904, shows an increase of the previous
year that might be rather appalling to
students of criminology if it could not
be explained in any way. In 1903
there were % convictions and $110 in
fines collected
During the year that has just closed
the convictions numbered Sc, which
was more than double those of the pre-
vious year, and the fines amounted to
$634, the costs running the amount up
to $40. OF those convicted II were
sent to the workhouse Seventeen
cases were for inroxication or for
trouble arising from men being drunk,
81 were for assault and battery and Is
far petit larceny. fhe jury fees In
criminal cases amounted to $222.5O, so
that there was a nice margin over and
above to the taxpayers.
The reason for the increase of busi-
ness is not that the country is going
to the dogs, but because the gran
jury has been certifying many of the
minor cases to this court and for q
time the city sent many of its drunks
over so that they could be sent to the
workhouse without expense to the city.

Chicago, July 14.-As is almost al
ways the case, gross violation Of or
ders was the cause of the terrible &C.
cident on the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois railroad near Glenwood last
night, in which twenty-three lives
were instantly sacrificed and nearly a
hundred more injured, several Of
whom will doubtless die, as they are
still lying in Chicago hospitals In the
same unconscious condition in which
they were brought there last night
with fractured skulls and other H.
juries so serious that the surgeons
say there is practically no hope that
their lives can be saved
The crew of the freight train, but
principally Engineer F. e. Hoxie and
Conductor Cooper must evidently
shoulder the responsibility for the
awful calamity.
According to the report of the rail
road officials the coal train crew dis
obeyed both special and general or
ders and thereby caused the accident.
The accident to the excursion train
returning to Chicago with the Dore-
mus Congregational church Sunday
school picnickers who had spent a
happy day at Moline, Ills, was pri-
marily caused by the breaking in two
of the coal train in charge of Conduc-
tor Cooper and Engineer Hoxie This
being reported to the train dispatcher
orders were given to the excursion
train to take the other track until they
had passed the coal train and other or
ders were issued to all trains on that
track giving right of way to the ex-
cursion train. Had the coal train
crew not violated a general order
which prevents any train to leave one
track and cross to the other without
special orders no accident would have
occurred and here is where the fatal
was committed which
caused the wreck.
It seems that eight cars of the
freight train had broken from the
main train and that Engineer Hoxie
did not discover it until he had run
about four miles. Then, not knowing
