To this end the Japanese began a
series of careful "Reminiscences, their
officers working their way close enough
to the Russian position to draw the
enemy's fire. They thus secured fra G.
ments of shells for the purpose of as

guns. During these "Reminiscences
the Japanese discovered that west Of
Liu-Tien the Russians had no defenses.
This gap in the defense was a fatal
defect in the Russian position, and
when it was perceived the japanese
extended the right to the north and
east, envelOping Kin-ChOW and the
Russian extreme right.
The Japanese left also was extended

London, May 2S.-A Toxic dispatch,
dated May q, says: The Japanese
army swept the Russians from Kin
Chow yesterday morning, and in q des-
perate night attack stormed the almost
impregnable position of the Russians
on Nanshan hill, west of Talienwan.
The battle ra ged in the hills all through
the night. The Russians had made
elaborate preparations to check tie
Japanese movement south on the Lao
Tung peninsula toward Port Arthur.
They had fortified the high ground
on the south shore of TalienWan bay,
their works extending to the east and
the west The extreme Russian right
was at Hushangtao and the extreme
left at Nanshan hill. This hill was the
strongest part of the line; a series of
batteries, strongly emplaced, crowded
it's crest. while rifle pits extended
lower down on this hill, and around
the base on the northern and eastern
sides were stretched well-made wire
entanglements.
Another line of defenses, also pro-
tected with wire entanelements. eG-
tended from Yen-ChiaTung near the
head of Talienwan bay, due north OF
Liu- CHA -Tien. which lies south of Kin
Chow. The Russians apparently at
tempted to draw the Japanese attack
last Saturday. for their batteries opened
fire slowly on the enemy on that day
The Japanese, however, refused to be
drawn until the positions Of the Rus
slams, their guns and their strength
had been fully developed.

WATERFOWL, s. D.. May 25.-Watertown
is soon to entertain the South Dakota
State Federation of Women's clubs, and
the society and literary women Of the city
are getting ready to show their sister club
women special attention and courtesy.
May 81 and June and are the dates
set for the convention.
The South Dakota federation was or
ganized IN Deadwood Jan. 16, 1900, and
the following June the first annual meet
ing was held in Aberdeen. Every year
the same energetic women come together
to exchange ideas and to gain that zest
to their existence that comes with a fric-
| ton Of thought.
| The federation has been entertained by
| Hot Springs, Sioux Falls and Rapid City,
and comes to Watertown this year by In
vitation Of the Progressive Study club and
the Woman's club.
There are thirty-one clubs In the feder-
| alton, and others in the state that 90 not
as yet see the benefits to be derived from
Federation. Consider the end" Is the fed
Grafton motto.
! Miss Clara D. Coe oS Deadwood fs

tysburg vice president, Mrs. Annie A.
| Lumley of Pierre recording secretary,
Mrs. w. T. Coad of Rapid City CORE
spending secretary, Mrs. Anna M. Marbell
Of Watertown treasurer, Miss Clara J.
Hughey Of Huron auditor.
The federation has standing committees
representing working forces in literature.
Libraries, art, reciprocity. philanthropy,
music household economics, education
and civics.
Officers are elected but once in two
years and this Is the year they change,
under the constitution. Both Sioux Falls
and Deadwood have furnished a fedora
ton president and now it is proposed to
send the honor to Aberdeen, Mrs. A. w.
Glenn being the choice Of many Of the
leaders.
That women cannot always agree devel-
oped at the last federation in Rapid City,
and a feeling has since arisen that Will
be difficult to counteract. The ultimate
result will probably be the organization Of
an eastern federation. There Is another
reason, too, for such an organization. The
eastern part Of the state IS so far from,
the Black Hills that when the meetings
are held there very few can go from this
side owing to distance and expense. By
having an organization made up Of clubs
4 east of the river the women can get to-
gether oftener and promote more
| friendly feeling among themselves. The
| Black Hills clubs have such federation
besides the regular state body.
