Correspondent Tells Of
Sinking Of PetropavIovsk

Lao Yang. April 1S.--A correspond
ent who has just returned from Port
Arthur said to-day:
For four nights watched with the
sentrles on Golden hill. Three nights
passed quietly.
Tuesday night. April -, Vice Adj
miral Makaroff took 10 sea with his
entire squadron, including fourteen
fourteen torpedo boats. The next
night, in the teeth OF gale. eight
torpedo boats were sent out to recon
hotter. From Golden hill, on which
was standing, through the blackness
the searchlights OF the Notifications
flashed over the inky waters OF the
roadstead and far out to the hazy
horizon.
AT II o'clock heard firing at sea
and counted seven shots, but could
see nothing. At daybreak | made out
through the light haze to the south
ward. about five miles from shore, six
torpedo boats strung out In line, all
firing. In the lead and outstripping
the others, was a boat heading at full
speed directly for the entrance OF the
harbor The last in line was .becloud-
ed in steam and tagging. She had evil
IDENTIFY been hit. II was difficult TO
distinguish the boats, but finally,
through my glasses. | saw that the
leader and the laggard were Rus
sian and that the four others were
Japanese.
"The flash Of the guns and the
splash OF the projectiles as they
struck the water showed the inten-
sity OF the conflict.
"The torpedo boat from which
steam was escaping was firing vicious
ly. The four center craft drew to-
gether, concentrating their fire on her,
but tho crippled destroyer poured out
her fire and was successfully keeping
off her assailants.
"The signal station flashed the
news to the men of the batteries that
the vessel was Strashni.

st. Petersburg. April 20.-Alexieff,
the Russian commander in the East,
has sent in his resignation to the
Gear. His withdrawal comes IN the
form OF request for permission to
retire from command OF the forces in
the far East. No reason Is given for
his sudden retirement.
The Car will grant permission at
once and n new commander will be
sent from st. Petersburg.
The retirement of Alexieff is the
source of much speculation. II is
believed that he has not been active
enough in his preparation and adj
vances into Korea TO appease the
war party and the Gear.
The request OF Admiral Alexieff to
be relieved from his post has created
a distinctly bad Impression here. and
II is feared that Il foreshadows a
repetition on land OF the japanese sue
cesses on the sea.

OUT THE STATE.
Legislative Interest Now Entirely Cen
tered Upon the New Board Of
Control Law, Which Will
Result in Sharp Fight.
Result in Sharp Fight.

Legislative interest is entirely cen.
tered upon the new board of control
law which has been drafted by a com.
mittee OF senators and is before the
upper body of the legislature. The
representatives of the educational in.
situations are flocking to Des Moines
to oppose the abolition of the old re.
gent and trustee system and the fight
upon the bill will be the sharpest OF
the session. 1t looks as though the
measure would have pretty clea; sail.
ing in the upper body, and that the
fight will be centered in the lower
house.
The bill proposes anonpartisan board
of five members who are to have en-.
tire charge of the three state schools.
The chairman is to receive salary OF
$4,000 and give his entire time to the
work. The other members are to re-
ceive per diem for not to exceed
ninety days in the year. 1t will re-
quire vote of four members to de-
pose president of any of the schools.
All other questions before the board
will require only majority vote. The
chairman cannot be an alumnus of any
OF the schools, and no more than two of
the other members may be selected
from the alumni OF any of the institu-
lions. The governor is to appoint the
board members for six-year terms
each.

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause Of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

SHUTDOWN IS THREATENED
IOWA MINERS REFUSE TO ARB1-
TRATE WAGE SCALE.
Thirty Thousand Men Will Be At
fected IF Agreement with OPP
orators Is Not Reached.

Des Moines, Ia, March 26.-Refusal
OF the miners in joint conference with
the operators to arbitrate questions at
fecting the wage scale in the first and
fourth districts has threatened a shut
down OF every coal mine in the Thir-
teenth district, which includes the en-
tire state of Iowa and portion of Mis-
souri,. The miners demand day wage
OF S224 for unskilled labor in the dis
trict referred to and the operators re-
fuse because of conditions existing in
those districts which render that char
acter of labor much cheaper. No OBJ
lection is made to the scale in other dis
tricts.
Thirty thousand miners will be af-
fected in case the representatives of the
miners refuse to arbitrate and general
shutdown is ordered. The operators
haveissued their ultimatum and the min
ers are holding private session in or
der to canvass the matter.

Inhabitants from these towns and sur

devastated several thousand acres of
farm and grazing lands, and burned

souIe Expects to Go Free.

BY agreement of all concerned, the
trial of Edward o. Soule. the cashier
indicted on three charges for embez-
element of $4,000 from the Home
Savings bank of Iowa Falls, was con-
tinued until the August term of court.
All the civil suits growing out of this
trouble were settled by some stipula-
ton, save one case, and it is thought
an arrangement has been perfected
whereby Soule will eventually go free.
It is said that Soule's father has adj
vanced considerable money to help his
son out of the difficulty.
