This development was pointed out
in the use made Of steam in the
different means OF locomotion, the
automobile, steamboat ard l8eo

The lecture, by the aid of lantern
views, was made very interesting
indeed. Prot Emory pointed out all
along. that the invention grew, con
tinualIy, out of the need of it.
1t is said that the way to a mans
heart is through his stomach hui the
entertainers of the club seem to have
conceived cerollary to this prop

have been sunk while six cruisers

layed IN transmission Two Japan
ese cruisers and two battleships, aided
by eight torpedo boats, attacked q
Russian cruiser in the Straits Of Kook-
socky on the night of February %.
The Russian captain tried to avoid
battle AMI headed his ship to the
north. As his boat had not been
docked for eighteen months, and the
japanese cruisers came out of dock
only five weeks ago, the later were
much swifter. They headed off the
fleeing Russian. Seeing pursuit was
ia vain, the Russian captain gave
battle.
Although the edds were heavy
against him, the Russian captain
fought desperately. One OF his shells
knocked the taffrail off the japanese
cruiser Kickashinny and she with
drew. The Japs appeared to be SUI
perior marksmen, however, and every
shell counted. The Russian was dis
abled, and then the torpedo boats,
under cover of darkness, began an at
tack. The Russian captain saw further
lighting was futile, so he stationed the
band on the bridge and ordered il to
Play "God Save the Czar.n Then,
wrapping Russian flag about him,
he blew up his ship.
The Japs honored their brave enemy
by cheering time and time again, for
such GOODNESS is seldom seen 10 war
fare. They endeavofed to rescue those
of the crew who survived the explosion,
but were unable to do so on account
Of the darkness.
