boats.
The Russians allowed the JAPANESE
to land and then fired on them. Nearly
all the Japanese were shot, bayonetted
or drowned and their boats sunk. The
Russians sustained no losses.
Noncommissioned officers Louch-
kline and SouDaschonev distinguished
themselves in the fight.
On the following day the Japanese
lowered their flag at Win and their
outposts. which lately have been seen,
fell back. On the night of April g.,
four Russians crossed the Yalu to
Yenampo (Yongampho?) and made
towards Russian village, where they
found a squadron of Japanese cavalry.
They remained there twelve hours
when they were betrayed by Koreans
and found themselves obliged to swim
the river, their boats having struck on
a sand bank. One solder lost his life.
The Japanese pursued the Russians in
a boat, but were in turn attacked by a
Russian boat, which had come to the
rescue of the swimmers. The Japa-
nese were all killed and their boat
sunk.

little tavern up in Connecticut not
long ago, and a farmer came in with
eggs to sell. The transaction took
place in the barroom of the establish

two dozen, and when the farmer came
to count over the contents of his
basket, he found that he had twenty
five eggs. The proprietor wanted the
extra egg thrown in for good measure.
The farmer didn't see it that wav
and they argued the matter. At last
the proprietor said he'd take the
twenty-five eggs, give the man a
drink, and call it square. The farmer
agreed and pocketed his money.
" Nov, what'll you have,' asked

Russian Satisfaction Over Successes
on the Yaiu River,

on the Yaiu River.
st. Petersburg, April 13.-General
Kuropatkin's report to the emperor
OF the humiliation of Japanese de-
tachments on the Yalu river is a mat
ter Of general satisfaction in official
circles. Again, in the view of the au-
thorities, the Russian soldier has
proven his superiority in strategy and
in the manner of attack which left no
chance for single enemy to escape.
One feature Of the message which is
not pleasing to the authorities is the
action of the Koreans in revealing to
the Japanese the presence of the Rus
slams at Yongampho, and the belief
prevails that the Koreans are not so
unfriendly to the Japanese as has been
announced. Incidents such as that at
Yongampho indicate that the view
held of the Korean attitude is a mis-
taken one.
