REPORT ON FRIDAYS
FIGHT ON THE YALU

ST PETERSBURG, April A.-Ofhcial dis
patches regarding the fighting south of the
river Pomakua, reported last Friday, in
which a Russian detachment had three men
killed and two officers and thirteen men
wounded, say japanese troop-laden barge
and other boats emerged from the mouth
of the Pomakua and attempted to cut off
the Russian retreat. The barge was sunk
by the Russian guns. Captain Smeizin, who
commanded the detachment, has died of
his wounds. Lieutenant Pushkin was the
other officer wounded.
Further details concerning the skirmish
say that in following up the general plan
TO harrass and impede the Japanese cross
ing the Yalu, the Russian outpoStS on the
river sent a detachment of volunteers in
boats on the night of April q for the pur-
pose of setting fire to the Japanese pom
ICONS and other bridge material
The boats grounded a sand bank near
the Korean side and drew the fire of the
Japanese outposts. There was a sharp
fusillade at close range. The position of
appearance of a number of light bargeS
tributary stream, called the Pomakua,
which is unmarked on the maps of the Rus
sian general staff.
The intention of the barges was to cut
off the retreat of the Russians. This was
noticed from the other bank, two miles
distant, and two field guns opened fire. A
lucky shot sank one of the bargeS and
the others withdrew. The Japanese cas-
ualtieS are not known.

Orestez Caldwell is one of the few stu
dents of Shortridge High School who has
departed from the conventional lines of
school work. He has made a special study
of electricity along original lines and has
several inventions that have been COM
mended by the leading engineers of the
State. The young man has just received
a patent from the government on a system
of traction without storage battery, motor
or trolley. He will not give the workings
of his system to the public. but his perfect
working model in his labratory runs with
out hitch and as the locomotiOn is much
cheaper than the trolley system he has
hopes of developing it to take the place
of the present system.
Caldwell had charge of the electrical ar
rangements for the Senior fair and all
of the original illusions in the cave of Ma
homet were his invention. He has also had
charge of ali the lighting for the stage in
the different entertainments given. Cald-
we'll does not confine himself altogether
to science but takes an active part in all
of the work of the school. He is editor
OF the Monday Echo, which paper is noted

DEVELOPMENT OF KOREA
IS NOT BEING RETARDED
japanese Bank Started at Anju
and Two Other Banks Are
Under Consideration.
TRADE CONTINUES ACTIVE

SEOUL, April 2i.-That the civil as well
as the military occupation of Korea is eff
fective is evidenced by the economic de-
velopments under consideration and the sx-
tension of banking activity. The Daiiehi
Ginko, a japanese bank, has opened a
branch al Anju for the purpose of handling
military funds and engaging in bullion and
specie transactions with the American
mines at Unsan. a Korean bank has been
long desired, but it has not been estab-
lished, owing TO the lack of public conf
dence in the integrity of a Keoean man
agement
Japan, now proposes to utilize Korean and
Japanese capital for the organization of a
bank similar in it's scope TO the Russo
Chinese Bank in China to'finance and slim
ulate industrial enterprises.
NJ Nagamori, whose agricultural investi-
cation has resulted in the formation of an
extensive scheme for cultivating waste
land of Korea, is at the ahead of another
banking venture in Korea!
The japanese authorities are sending an
Official TO the Anju region to resuppy the
Korean farmers of that locality with seed
grain the retreating Russians having di-
vested them of their stock in hand. This
VIII insure crop for the coming year and
the provisioning of the japanese army in
Korea.
The Korean trade returns for the quarter
ending March 81, Notwithstanding the fact
that there had been practically no export
OF rice, show that the imports. while small
er than those of the corresponding quar-
ter OF 1903, exceed those of the quarter
ended Dec. 81, and this is taken to indicate
that the war has caused comparatively
little rural uneasiness, and has not I'M
usually disturbed the average prosperity
OF the country

DEAD AT TRENTON, n, J,
Was State Senator, Receiver and
President of the Jersey Central

PATRON OF PRINCETON

TRENTON. N. J., April 24.-Former State

quilt and was president of the New York *
Long Branch Railroad until that road be-
came a part of the Reading system. Mr..

princeton, which is being filled by former
President Grover Cleveland.
Mr.. Little left one sister Mrs Margaret
L. Terhune. of Mattewan, n. j.. and three

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PACED

tanned the hope of accomplishing a task
similar TO that which Napoleon set HIM
self, present advices indicate that they
have abandoned it and have adopted a
much more cautious and less hazardous
programme.
If this information is correct there will
be no advance of the army concentrated at
Loa-Yang and Mukden, with its attendant
constant lengthening and weakening of the
Japanese line of communications. Instead.
there seems to be a determination to stick
close possible 10 the sea, where lies
Japan's natural base of communication,
she having established herself in Korea:
The general Stairs reports say the Jap
aneSe still have three other Objectives-the
occupation of a line across the Liao-Tung
peninsula, for the purpose of cutting off
Port Arthur, the isolation of Vladivostok
and the establishment of a junction be-
tween the army of Korea and the force at
the head of the Liao-Tung peninsula. The
last mentioned movement might be accom-
plished by landing near the mouth of Ia
Yang river, which, by threatening the Hank
of the Russian position at Feng-Huan-
Cheng, might render il untenable and make
the advance of a column from Korea COM
paratively easy.
If these plans should succeed the life of
both Russian squadrons in the Pacific
would be menaced, and with the sea and
fleet back of her at every point Japan could
fortify the positions thus gained, and, with
the tables turned, compel General kuropat-
kin to go forward and attack.
General kuropatkin, however, is in pos
session of the latest adviceS received by the
general staff, and it is safe TO assume that
if the Japanese campaign develops along
the lines indicated he will be ready TO make
such disposition of his forces as will meet
and checkmate ii.

The Rev Nj. c. Pearson delivered the SER
mon Tor the morning service using as his
theme, Hearing and Assmilating the
Truth. His text was taken from the par
able of the sower. In part he said:
Lying at the very heart of this beautiful
STORY OF the sower, who goes forth and in
broadcast fashion sows the wheat on all
kinds OF soil, is a thought which forms
itself into some searching interrogations
What am l doing with the truth | hear?
what Is my attitude toward all the mes
sages of truth which come to me from so
many sources? How am / profited by the
song, the sermon, the word, the book the
counsel of a friend? How do / hear? The
emphasis does not rest on the sower nor
on the word, but on the character of the
soil.
The principle herein set forth is univer
is true to fact in every age. There are
now and always will be men whose hearts
are imperyious, crusted, calloused. They
are clothed in coat of mail which wards
off the arrows of truth. Others hear and
are moved with emotion. They receive the
truth, acknowledge its claims. but have no
depth of conviction. They are shallow. and
there can be no fruitage from such a char
acter.
still others hear and receive the truth
but they are overmastered by the world
the deceitfulness of riches passion for
other and baser things, and thus the truth
is smothered and dies. The other class
hears the word, receives it with open and
unprejudiced minds. They recognize the
value and power of truth. and by assimila-
ton ii becomes a part of the very texture
of their lives and characters
THE essential thing about me is nv char
acter. what 1 am. My character is made
up of the things l hear and receive and
assimilate. 1t is the truth which makes
men free. Salvation stands for the evolu-
ton of Chrstlike character. II is a pro.
cess of growth. Its field is that of purified
physical sensibilties. purified mental and
moral sensbilities. By daily mortifica-
tion of evil tendencies and daily assimila-
ton of the truth of Jesus Christ there
comes the assurance of fruitage of thirty
sixty or hundred fold"

The surgeon of the Mongolia has written

who survived the disaster. He says they
are men of great and indescribable heroism,
