Ono CARTRIDGE to Two Men.

1.-THE Russians and the Japs," said
the Sergeant, ARE going to war we'll
equipped as to arms and ammunition.
That Is more than can be said for
scores of regiments sent to the front
in the first year Of our civil war. For
example, two regiments Of the Kanaw-
ha division went up the Ohio from
Cincinnati In boats. We were armed
with old smooth bore muskets and we
had never seen a cartridge. 1t was
supposed that there were at least one
thousand cartridges on the two boats
for two thousand men.
There was great rejoicing along
shore as the two boats, crowded with
soldiers and with bands playing and
flags flying, steamed slowly up the
river. On the Ohio side men on
horseback followed us for miles,
cheering and waving flags, and every
town made a demonstration. There
was also some enthusiasm on the
Kentucky side, but as we neared Guy
andotte on the Virginia shore warn
ings came to us from both sides Of
the river that Capt. Jenkins, guerrilla,
had force massed near Guyandotte
to attack us.
1.-THE boats were tied together, the
men were massed on the upper deck,
each man proud Of the one cartridge
given into his care, and we moved for
ward to attack. Think of it! One
cartridge to a man, and all the men
exposed to artillery or rife fire. As
the sun went down we moved slowly
to the jenkins landing. And no SOON
er had the boats touched the landing
than a thousand men were on shore
eager for fight. Fortunately, Jenkins
and his men were not there and we
escaped slaughter. If the Japs moved
on the Russians as we did then thuo-
sands of them would be killed."-Chi-

.JAPs NEARING PORT ARTHUR,
Actual Seige Of Port Arthur Is Com

Insists on ths Ability Of the Fortress
to Hold Out.

London, May 3o.-The Japanese le-
cation has received the following Off
cial dispatch from Toxic:
"Kin Chou and all the heights in its
cinity have been taken, and our
troops are pushing the Russians to-
ward Port Arthur"
That the Russians were not only de-
feated but routed, would appear from
rumors Of the capture Of Russian ar.

The fifth japanese division Of vet
Grams, which is destined for the storm
ing of Port Arthur, has already landed
on the Liao Tung peninsula.
A Toxic correspondent of The Tele-
graph says he learns that the Japanese
troops are now within seventeen miles
of Port Arthur and that the Russians
suffered heavier casualties than the
Japanese, who have taken guns and
other material and few prisoners.
He predicts further surprise, as
Japan is now increasing her efforts in
all directions

icle says that the japanese captured

lenses west of Talien Wan Bay 1t is
now improbable that the latter will be
capable Of offering any further resist

The storming Of Nan Shan hill was
q bloody affair. The Japanese first
conferred their fire on the Russian bat
teries, in which work they were aided
by four gunboats from Kin Chou bay.
They succeeded in silencing many Of
the enemy's guns.
The Russians had constructed q
series Of trenches around the hill on a
terrace protected by wire entangle-
ments and other such devices The
Japanese made series of rlshes, but
they were all in vain. The deadly rife
and cannon fire of the enemy checked
them repeatedly.
Finally, at o'clock in the afternoon
the japanese reformed and stormed
the crest of the hill, The Russians
held to their position doggedly and it
was I o'clock in the evening before the
Japanese finally gained possession of
the ridge.

in view of the foreign news Of the

as they moved forward and rose

John B. Cleland, judge of depart

court, met with an accident at Seaside

ton with his family at Seaside. They
occupy a pretty cottage on a hill some
distance from the beach, which is
peached by an elevated road. The road
was built insecurely at one point, and
as Judge Cleland stepped near the
edge on his way to the beach it crum'
bled and threw him to the ground Be
ing a large, heavy man, weighing 22O
pounds, Judge Cleland's impact with
the sod was with such force as to Sc
severely wrench his shoulder.
