japanese to Capture Town
for This Purpose.
ARE FLANKING RUSSIANS
Oyama Has Given up the Attempt
to Cut Off Kuropatkin's
Retreat.

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 23.-The
japanese advance toward Mukden
continues slowly, according to infOr-
nation received by the authorities
here. Both official reports and press
dispatches place Marquis Oyama's ad-
vance guard thirty miles south of Muk-
den. Stories printed in the foreign
press that a great battle at Mukden
has already begun are disproved by the
actual development at the scene Of
operations. There is no question in
the minds Of the Russian authorities
of the Importance of Mukden to the
japanese as winter base
1t is believed the japanese will exert
every effort to push out the Russians.
but it is thought q serious struggle for
the possession Of the town Is still some
days distant. The japanese probably
will have to reckon first with a stub
born defense Of the Fushun mines.
where the next important dgLt is cx-
pectcd to take plrce
Judging by present dcvcllnwo1ts,
Marquis Oyama is giving up tlr i1ca
Of cutting General Kuropatkiu's COM
munication to tie northward ana con
tenting himself with advancing upon
the Russian front, and flank IN such
q fashion as to force the evacuation of
the town and compel the Russians to
retreat farther north The whole plan
of the japanese advance shows con-
siderable difference from the opera
ti0nS at Liaoyang.
At the same time IL is possible the
Japanese are again making undisclosed
movements, as they have successfully
done in the past. According to the best
information Oyama has three armies
concentrated south and southeast of
Mukden, fourth corps, consisting OF
two divisions composed of men drafted
from the armies of Generals Kuroki.
Nodzu and 0ku, being detached to
Dziantchan and thence sending out
flanking columns northward and north
eastward with the object of protecting
Oyamas right and at the same time
driving in the Russian outposts. An
enveloping movement on such a large
scale as General Kuroki essayed at
Liaoyang is not expected. Evidently
the Japanese realize that their strength
is inadequate to justify another at
tempt to surround General Kuropatkin,
who now is stronger by two army
corps than he was at Liaoyang.
The report has gained some credence
here that it is the intention of the
japanese to winter at Mukden If they
can take the town and then hold on
until an accumulation of Russian
forces on their front compels them to
retire to the LlaOtung peninsula and
Korea, the retreat in this direction
drawing General Kuropatkin after
them.
Orders have been issued to prepare
seven rifle brigades for service in the

Students of either the Commercial Course or the Teachers or Scientific Course will be assisted as far as possible in securing de- sirable situations, but employment can not be promised in advance. The President of the Ozark Normal has been a teacher for many years and has never found COM PETENT young men or women long with out employment. We feel sure that all our Graduates will be able to find profitable work and We will assist them all that is in our power. For any school to promise pay ing situations to all of it's Graduates IS mis- leading as it can not be done.

TIE VALUE OF AN EDUCATION.

When the old Greek Philosopher, Aris- totle, was asked the difference between the educated and the uneducated he answered: ''As the living differ from the dead" We believe that the question of their education is the most important subject that can possi- ply engage the attention of young men and women.
 We do not believe there is a man or woman upon the earth to-day that went to school and did earnest work that has ever regretted the step. On the other hand there are thousands all about us who constantly regret that they failed to attend college.
