CHILDREN AFFECTED

Many babies have been launched into
life with constitutions weakened by dis

Mothers cannot be too careful as to the
food they use while nursing their babes.

With Hope and Apprehension
Russia Awaits Results

ST. PETERSBURG, April 1o.-Tele-
grams received here from various parts
of the country show that the people are
hopeful that Admiral Rogestvensky mas
eluded Togo, and that he will now be
able to effect material change in Rus
sian fortunes in the war.
The most intense excitement prevails
here. The people are all waiting with
feverish anxiety for news of the fleet.
All newspapers say that Russia has
ulaved her last stake in sending the
fieetlinto Far Eastern waters. Naturally
the outcome of the movement is awaited
with great interest
If Rogestvensky can elude Togo en-
tirely and reach the Japanese coast or
defeat the enemys fleet, Russia's posi-
tion would be helped wonderfully. On
the other hand, the meaning of de-
cisive defeat is well understood

scales in the struggle for naval suprem-

Criticisms of the fleet in St. Petersburg
chiefly lament the variety in the types
of vessels composing il, the different
rates Of speed. and also that the YES
sells are overmanned and supplied to an
extent that Increases their weight 10
per cent above their normal dispiace-
ment, while they carry from 80 TO so

Hope in the Navy.
The Standards St Petersburg corre-
spondent says Adriral Rogestvensky's
undisturbed passage of the Strait Of
Mslacca is almost welcomed rs an au-
Gury of success. The Russian magma
ton is beginning to be stirred.
The people are evidently pleased by
the spirit shown by the navy at this
eleventh hour. Many hope that the
chances of war will favcr the fleet.
Cthers are proud of Admiral Rogest-
vensky's eff0rt. believing that an un-
successful battle will be more honorable
than lurking under shore batteries.
Everybody is impressed with the loea
that the question of peace or war mas
been transferred from Tsarskoe-Selo 10

Battle May Be Fought
Off Formosa or Korea

Naval officers predict that the great
sea fight between the Russian and Jap
anese fleets will occur either in the
Piscadores straits. just west of For
mosa. or else in the Strait of Korea,
close to japan.
This is based on the belief that Ad-
niral Togo will refrain from giving bat
tie until the Japanese ships are in
position where, with their own navy
yards close at hand, and in waters with
which they are thoroughly familiar. the
japanese commander will be decidedly
at an advantage.
Togos scout system is SO well or
ganized there is no doubt he will be
able to follow the exact movements OF
the Russian ships. The mobile japanese
feet will keep constantly in motion to
guard the coast. 1t is here that Togo's
feet with it's superior number of cruis-
ers. vii offset the larger Russian bat
tleship array.
Seaweed and Barnacles.
Naval officers here do not attach too
much Importance TO the reports that
Russian ships are dragging immense
quantities of seaweed along their water
line An officer said:
1T is not the vegetable growth on
the battleship's water line that counts
SO much. That can be removed by div
ers A ship in tropical waters often
gets a long growth of seaweed between

The avalanche OF criticism which
has poured upon Arthur Duffey since
he began his exposure of the methods
by which crack athletes are obtained
for amateur meets has stirred up the
famous sprinter, and he comes TO the
fore to defend what he has done and
written.
The Virulence of the criticism seems
to clearly indicate that number Of
athletesy officials, and writer's have
been waiting for a long time TO take a
crack at the Georgetown star. The
gusto and enthusiasm with which they
proceed to paint him a $ the lowest in
dividual who ever donned a spiked shoe
does not speak as wei as il might
when II is remembered that everybods
connected with athletics who was over
seven and was not totally demented
knew that what DuTey exposed was
going on day in and day out. 1t does
not look good TO people who do not

their names in the papers.
