RUSSIAN-JAPANESE WAR.

February 17-Russia has massed
thousands of troops in Manchuria
and they are scattered along the
banks of the Yula. The Russians
are charged with cruelty to pris-
oners of war and to Japanese
women and children in Port Ar
thur. st. Petersburg officially
denied that the car needs more
money to prosecute the war.
February 18-Russia mas lost
942 men in fights and accidents in
the Far East since the war began.
The total japanese losses are esti-
mated to have been less than so.
February 19-Port Arthur is be-
sieged by the japanese, both by
land and sea. Niceroy Alexieff
and staff have left the Russian
Gibraltar to It's fate and retired to
Hardin unable to protect 1,20C

the japanese flag will soon fly

President Roosevelt and Secre-

in their effort to confne the war

That is what their note to the

England and Germany have APP

hangs back, for some unaccount-
able reason, and refuses to Join
the other powers. However, that
makes no material difference.
The signatory powers are strong

country first heard of him when

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork, was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.

ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott's Emulsion does more
than that. There is some

phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the

DOUBLE REPRESENTATION
New York Delegates and Alternatea

New York Delegates and AIternates
Seated In TeIegraphers' Convention.
Delegates to the annual convention Of
the International United Commercial
Photographers, in session at the state cap-
ital ST. Paul, put in most OF their time
time today debating the report Of the
committee on credentials. Trouble was
precipitated by an attempt on the part
Of the New York city local to have not
only their regular delegates, but also their
alternates. seated. After a stormy de-
bate the credentials Of both were ac-
cepted. The New York delegates are
members Of the executive committee, and
they commended that this debarred them
from voice In the convention. For this
reason they asked that their alternates
be seated.
Later members Of the executive COM
mittee and the officers were given the
right to vote in the convention, so New
Yorks representation is nine-two more
than was expected. Chicago has repre-
sentation Of seven. The increase in rep
resentation of New York and Chicago may
interfere materially with the proposed
transfer of the national headquarters
from the former city to some point west.
This evening the delegates will enjoy a
trolley ride to Minneapolis.

HOW SIGNI DAHLiBERG FOUND
HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.
Thru the Generous self-denial of a
Group of Working Girls Her Health
Was Restored and Now Word Comes
That She Has Met Her Fate.

Happiness has succeeded misery in
the life Of Signi Dahlberg, a pretty
little immigrant girl, who had her
hand and arm horribly mangled in the
Phoenix laundry, 251 First avenue s.,
last December.
When the poor girl,-was injured it
seemed the fates had heaped their
last terrible calamity upon her. For
q time her life hung in the balance
from fright and agony. When at last
she began to getrWell, there was no
kind friend to cheer and nurse her.
and, boEne down by her misfortunes,
she was seized with meloncholia. In
order to secure the merest pittances
of life, she was forced to go forth into
the rigor Of the winter to seek work.
In her famished, Worn-out condition
she contracted a cold, and when a doc
tor was called he pronounced 1t mild
form of consumption. $500,
When the nd1ngs of this new mis-
fortune reached her former friends In
the laundry and they heard that her
life could not be saved unless she was
sent to western climate, they began
to hold meetings and discuss what
could be done. Finally 1t was decided
that they would collect the money
necessary for the trip among them
selves. There were about thirty girls
and their wages ranged between SIS
and 81 week. Nevertheless, by de-
ny1nR themselves even the necessities
Of life, they succeeded In collecting
enough money to buy a ticket to Ari-
iona. An insurance company also
contributed something to the amount
as did the attendant doctor.
When this good news was carried
to the girl it acted more potently than
could any drugs. 1t was the first time
in her life that she had felt that there
is kindness in the world. Her melan-
cholia was dispelled and when she
started on her journey there was a
new light Of happiness in her eyes.
The bracing air of Arizona soon
brought back color to her cheeks and
now comes the report that a mining
engineer has become interested in the
story of the girl and that there is a
strong likelihood that she may change
her name.
Thus happiness has come to a poor
|. girl who has had to fight her way in
a strange country without the kind
words of mother or friends, and the
help has come from girls to whom
[ self-denia1 means something. And the
7 best part Of it all Is that they are all
|, glad for Signi.

SOAP HELD TO
Be A NECESSITY
Judge Dickinson Rules on a Fine
Point Involving Sunday
Sales.

Soap was declared to be a neces-
sity Of life and not a luxury by Judge
H. D. Dickinson in police court this
morning, when Ambrose Worthing-
ham was tried for Sabbath breaking.
The specific charge was that he sold
a bar Of soap to a customer on Sun
day.
The defense admitted selling, but
maintained that soap could not be
classed among groceries, After some
Wrangling, this particular brand of
soap was classed among groceries,
and then the fight began as to wheth-
er soap was not a necessity of life.
In giving a decision the court said:
- THE law fixes "a maximum penalty
Of $40, for violations In these cases,
but it also exempts sales involving
necessities Of life. don't know why
soap should not have been included
in this exemption, for they say that
cleanliness is next to godliness. The
stated exemptions, however, only re-
late to eatables, and as soap cannot
be used as an ordinary diet, nomi-
nal fine will have to be imposed. The
sentence in this case will be SO or
three days"
IS Worthinghann, who keeps a grocery
at 213 Fifth street S, was arrested at
the instigation Of the State Retail
Grocers' association. The association
intends to start a general crusade to
stop the practice Of Sunday selling.

CANT COME TOO SOON
ALDERMAN LANE THINKS COUN-
GIL COMMITTEE SHOULD NOT
HESITATE TO TAKE UP FRAN
CHISE PETITION.

The council committee on franchise
for the Minneapolis General Electric
company was called to meet this after
noon. At the hour named the chances
for a quorum were slim. There has
been much talk over the report that
no meeting is wanted until after cleo
ton and that many are not particu-
larly anxious for one even then.
Chairman J. S. Lane says that, so
far as he is concerned, the meeting
cannot come too soon to suit him, and
If there have been any attempts to
repress the meeting he has had no
hand in it.
II am ready now or at any other
time to vote on the franchise" said Mr..
Lane, land I don't see any reason why
the other members should hesitate.
For that mater, don't know that they
do. The council should fix q liberal
gross earnings tax and should estab-
lish the maximum rates to be charged
the city and private consumers. The
rates should not be SO low nor the tax
so high as to drive the company out
Of business, as the stockholders are
entitled to a fair profit from their In
yestments"
