HOPE OF PEACE HAS

Russian Troops Concentrate
In the Yalu Valley.
AoGREGATE 100000 STRONG.

1t Is Said the Probable Intention on
the Part of the Cars Forces Is To
Seize North Korea-War Outlook Is
Threatening
London, Feb. 5.-A dispatch to The
Central News Agency from Toxic says
the newspapers there publish tele-
grams saying that 10000 Russian
| troops have been concentrated in the
Yalu valley with the probable inten-
tion of Selling North Korea
1t is added that hope OF maintain
ance of peace has been abandoned
st. Petersburg, Feb. 5.-Dispatches
from Vladivostock say that over
thousand Japanese girls embarked
there for Japan yesterday, and that
Ehsee other steamers are on the point
Of sailing for Japan with Japanese
families, including many who left the
Nikolskoye and Ussuri regions on last
Wednesday.
A Russian correspondent of The AS
sociated Press at Port Arthur tele-
graphs as follows:
There is no truth in the report that
freight traffic has been stopped on the
Manchurian railway.
"All the ships of the Russian Pa
cit1c squadron which have been held
in reserve are now in full commits
sion.
The regiments of the Third East
Siberian Rifle brigade which recently
lett Port Arthur are taking temporary
stations along the Chinese railroad.
THE Port Arthur garrison has been
strengthened by the arrival there of
the Seventh brigade of conscripts, who
have recently been going through q
short course of training.
Stores of provisions and coal are
being actively pushed forward
Both the army and navy are in ex-
cellent condition and everything is
ready for an emergency, but all are
patiently awaiting the outcome of the
negotiations. The Russian population
is tranquil. Very few of the Rus
slams are leaving, but many Japanese
merchants are selling out and going
home. Those remaining here feel en-.
tire confidence in the authorities.
The announcement from Vladivo-
stock that preparations have been
made for the mobilization of the
Manchurian reserves was premature"

A Deserved Rebuke.

The Aiken correspondent of The
News and Courier says when Benjamin
Buford, the white man found guilty
of manslaugliter in killing the negro,
Larry Blackmore, was presented be-
fore Judge Purdy for sentence, he was
asked by his honor if he had anything
to say why sentence of the court
should not be passed upon him. Buford
replied. Nothing your honor" and
held up the lapel of his coat, on which
was pinned the emblem of the Masonic
Fraternity. He had previously given
a sign, which Judge Purdy, being a
Mason, did not fail to recognize. The
mans object was evident and Judge
Purdy strenly said: 'That badge can
do you no good here. You are not fit
to wear it. Throw it away. You
have violated all that is good and
noble that emblem represents, and you
are no brother of mine. The sentence
Of the court is that you shall serve
twelve years in the state penitentiary
at hard labor. You can thank your
counsel for saving your neck. ;

Should be Punished.

State says Lawrence Scott, white
man living nearby, and running a farm
for Mr.. o. D. Lee, was arrested We'd
nesday for the burning of Mr.. Dwight
Harrington's barn some ten days be-
fore Christmas. twill be remembered
that Mr.. Harrington's barn, stock
and supplies were burned and he was
left severely crippled under this great
loss. A negro was arrested at the
time and it was reported that he
had confessed to the deed. Subse-
quently the negro escaped from jail
at Darlington and has not been recap
tured. But there must have been
something wrong about his alleged
confession, for Scott was arrested
Wednesday and taken to Darlington
for preliminary hearing Thursday.

Mrs. NJ. L. Adams, Fredonia, Ala,

perfectly. Many doctors had given up
h use as hopeless, hundreds of cases

Blood Balm. Among others, Mrs. B.
NJ. Guerney, Warrior Stand, Ala. Her
nose and lip were raw as beef, with Of

Doctors advised cutting, but it failed.
Blood Balm healed the sores, and Mrs.

A LASTING EFFECT.
This Evidence Should Prove Every Claim
Made for Doan's Kidney Pills
in 0rangebnrg.

Relief from the aches and pains of a
bad back is always welcome to every
backache sufferer, but to cure a lame,
weak or aching backiS what is wanted.
Cure it so it will stay cured. IT can be
done. Here's the strongest evidence
to prove it:
4. G. Wright, proprietor of Wright's
Hotel, Columbia, 5. g., says: ut IS

the long list of endorsers Of Doan's
Kidney Pills. | used them and was
benefited very much and can recon-
mend them highly. l had suffered for
several years and my back had been
very weak across the lOinS and l Suf-
fered from a steady aching or pain.
The kidney SecretiOnS were very dark,
full of sediment and irregular some
times very scant and at other times so
free as to be troublesome, compelling
me to get up often in the MI ght. l
consulted physician about it but got
very little satisfaction and l used sew
eral proprietary remedies and tried
plasterS as well but | remained about
the same until I saw Doan'S Kidney
Pills advertised. DR.. Thomas spoke
so highly CT them that l concluded 20
tryethem and was much surprised at
the results. The secretions have been
cleared up. My back has become
stronger and I have not had backache
since using them. You can use my
name if you choose and / hope it will
be the means OF. relieving some other
sufferers"
