A Charge All Along the Line

One Of Longstreet's division leaders, General Fields, says, Had our ad- vance not been suspended by this dis aster. have always believed that Grant would have been driven across the Rapidan before night"
 It was nearly nightfall when Lee re- sumed the attack upon Hancock's po-. sition at the plank road. He pushed forward two divisions snd captured a line of breastworks, but the Federals rallied and quickly drove the victors out. Meanwhile General Burnside, whose corps had been counted upon to cover the long gap in Grants line, got his troops into position north of the plank road between Hancock and War ren and drove the Confederates back to their old lines of the morning.
 Burnside's advance put q check to any forward movement by Ewelrs Confederate corps on Lees extreme
 
 against the assaults of Warren and Sedgwick Thus the day ended with the opposing forces locked in death grapple neither side being able to forge ahead.
 One resource remained to end the deadlock in the Wilderness. Tkat was a blow delivered in Stonewali Jackson's way, on the flank of the enemy. Hard beset and heavily outnumbered though they were the Confederates made the attempt under the leadership of the late General John B. Gordon, who on more than one occasion startled the Federal army with the bold tactics of his old commander, Jackson. Soon after dark on the 9th Gordon, at the head of division. composed chiefly of the veterans of Stonewall Iackson's old corps, marched on detour around the extreme right of the Sixth Federal corps. After clearing the enemy's flank completely Gordon formed his

 LONDON, March 24.-By the sinking of one battleship and the bottling up of the rest of Admiral Makaroff's war. ships the entire Russian fleet at Port Arthur has been put out of action, ac. cording to dispatches from Tokyo.
 These dispatches and others report that fourteen Russians were killed or wounded, that seven Japanese were killed and that the Russians are ready to eva0uate Port Arthur and will burn the town on the first sign of danger from the Japanese.
 A dispatch from Koje, on the south ern coast of Korea, confirms the news of fierce battle outside Port Arthur harbor and says Russian battleship was sunk in the enga cement.
 An informal meeting of the foreign consuls stationed at Newchwang has been called for the purpose of discuss ing means for securing the protection of the property of the neutrals in view of the fact that Newchwang is now surrounded by large Russian forces, having breastworks and batteries ss- tablished at the railway station on the east side of the river Liao and also at the fort on the west side. This situa- tion exposes the treaty port to the dan ger of cannon fire should the Japanese come up the river
 On account of the fear that the Unit ed States gunboat Helena will be with drawn American residents here have telegraphed to United States Minister Conger at Picking requesting the pres ence of an American man-of-war in constant communication during the continuance of the war for the purpose of especially protecting property dur ing the disorder that 1t Is expected will attend the interregnum between Rus sian and Japanese occupations
 The Japanese hold two enormously strong positions at Pingyang and Oil the Miokaksan range between Hwang- ju and Seoul. The latter Is probably impregnable and secures Seoul from land attacks from the northwest.
 Russian officials admit their fear that Japan h about to land on the peninsula to cut off Port Arthur and to begin q general bombardment and siege.

The rarest, most costly, and most curious fish for aquariums come from the east. Goldfish breeding is special ty among the celestials, the fish hav- ing been first introduced into Europe in :1611. They were then SO costly that only royalty could own them; in fact, fancy prices are still paid for some breeds of oriental goldfish. The brush tail' is the rarest of these, one having been sold in Berlin for more than e140, others bringing as much as from $50 to 9100 apiece.

The judge had had his patience sorely tried by lawyers who wished to talk and by men who tried to evade jury service. Between hypothetical questions and ex- cuses 1t seemed as if they never would get to the actual trial of the case. So when the puzzled little German who had been accepted by both sides jumped up, the judge was exasperated

sf ~defeaSe is said to extend from Feng- huangcheng to the north thirty miles. The second line has formed from Muk- den to Haicheng Troops are being massed at these points.
 The Russians intended to make Anju their base, but owing to the delay in the arrival of re-enforcenents they were afraid they would be cut off and so retired. Meanwhile the Japanese advanced to Pingyang by forced marches, the troops being almost with out equipment.
 Advices from St. Petersburg say the reports printed in Europe and the United States to the effect that state of siege such as has been proclaimed in Siberia and in Saratoff province, in southeastern Russia, through which the Siberian railroad runs, will be ex- tended to the whole of European Rus sia Is officially declared to be absolute ly false. No such measure has even been contemplated, 1t being considered quite unnecessary.
 A Tokyo dispatch says the special session of the diet entered upon the business for which it was called. M. Katsura, the premier, and M. Komura, the minister for foreign affairs, ad- dressed the house. The premier said the diet had been summoned at an un- paralleled moment in the annals of the country. He counted it great honor to share with the members the duty of upholdng the noble policy of the emperor for the maintenance of Ja- pans position. Russia not only had failed to meet the Japanese proposals, but defantly resorted to actions cal culated to injure the national rights of Japan, and Japan was compelled in self defense to terminate the negotia- tons and take independent action. He was confident the world would recog niae the justice and patience uniformly exercised by Japan in carrying for ward the negotiations with Russia. The minister said he. was anxiously de sirous of peace, being mindful of the woeful consequences which war brings to mankind.

STRANGE CAT IN NATIONAL zoo
He Is an African ServaI, but Resem,
bles Texas Wildcat.

Lying peacefully in one corner OF
his cage in the National zoo in Wash
ington, watching visitors with his lit
tie beady, rat-like eyes, is the newly
imported African serval, a member of
the cat family He is one of the first
seen in this country, and gets lot of
attention, both on this account and
because of his grotesque appearance.
He resembles the Texas wild cat in
general contour and coloring, but his
markings are more distinct and regu-
lar, and his long, pointed ears are not
tufted as are those of his wildcat
brother. The serval has a dog-like
muzzle, which, combined with his
long. dropping whiskers, gives him a
decidedly Chinese cast of counte-
nance. Although not personally beau
tiful, he seems to have a cheerful and
philosophical disposition, and PAGES
up and down or lies curled up near
the bars all day without making a
sound. There is some speculation
among his keepers as to whether, if
he chose, he could new or howl, or
bark, for so far he hasn't uttered a
single sound.-New York Times.

PLAN OF IDEAL KITCHEN.
Laid Out with View to Saving Time
and Labor

Laid Out with View to Saving Time
and Labor.
The first point for consideration in
planning Kitchen is its size. In
America the kitchens are uniformly
too large. A kitchen should be only
so large as to enable those who work
therein to move about with ease. Ev.
cry inch added to this amount is that
much useless space which must be
kept clean and in order; but more seri
iOus than this, every added inch makes
necessary in year countless steps
which might be saved.
Our plan shows the relation of the
kitchen to the dining-room, pantry and
china closet, back porch and in STAIR
ways to the basement. 1t is impos.
sible to consider a kitchen by ITSELF
A kitchen is only convenient in it's
relation to other parts of the house as
well as in the detail of it's arrange
ment and cannot be considered alone.
The communication from the kitch-
en- to the dining-room is by double
swing doors, which always stand
closed when not in use. One does not
take hold of knob to open or close

Most Of the prairies in the United

broken them up with orchards, for.
ests and farm buildings. But in
Western Canada the prairies still
stretch grandly from horizon to hori-
xon as yet unmarried by the hand of
man, save where the iron road has
been laid. To city man there is
something deliciously restful 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. It is remarkable fact that
the entire length of the Canadian Pa
cific railway from it's eastern termi-
nus 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
