Only Three Guards Found by a Recon-

Only Three Guards Found by Recon-
raissance-some sh CLING.
Detailing further the operations at
the landing Admiral Kataoka says: "A
reconnaissance WAS conducted, but no
defenses were found. Only three
guards were discovered The flotilla
engaged in sweeping the sea for dam
gerOus obstacles encountered heavy
currents, but speedily pressed the
work. A portion of the squadron and
the transports were led through the
cleared space and marines were land
ed from the combined division. Later
the army relieved the marines. Our
sweeping division was suddenly sheNed
from the hills south Of Korasakorsk.
The cruiser Akagi was also exposed to
the fire, but the sweeping was conclud-
ed without damage.
THE army reported by wireless on
July 8 that Korasakorsk had been
taken. Our flags are visible at sever
al points. We were APPRENTICESHIP on
account of the weather, but the work
OF the fleet was successfully accom-
plished. Admiral Nakao reconnOitered
IN the vicinity of the island, but moth
Ing unusual was discovered. Early on
Saturday three warships and two de-
stroyers were dispatched to Yensuma
cape. Later destroyer entered Ro-
ilsei and was vigorously shelled by a
Held piece. We returned the fire and
silenced the enemy's guns"
The announcement of the landing Of
a Japanese force at Sakhalin island
and the occupation of Korasakorsk, fol-
lowed by the northern flight of the gar
risen, has been received with great
satisfaction by the Japanese. The land
ing OF the army at Sakhahn marks the
first entry of the Japanese upon Rus
sian territory proper. The japanese
have expressed themselves pleased to
be again in possession of the island,
declaring that they have long felt that
the bargain under which they relim-
quished the place forty years ago was
unsatisfactory.

who was starting out for a career
in an eastern city, let me tell yeu
something which may help you.
You get up there and you may see
heap of people who have got
more money than you; a heap of
people who have got more brains
than you have and more success.
Some of them may be better look

DESCRIPTION PRICE sLsc pERa YEAR
A NEW PERIL.

For some days past rumors OF a
very incendiary nature have been
current in Lancaster and vicinity,
and some of the best families have
been made the victims of the mali
cious attack. In details many Oh
the versions differ, but substantial
ly they carry the same damning
import. The honor of families
who have been instrumental in
making Lancaster what it is has
been dragged into the miro by the
filthy tongue of scandal, and
throughout the county the tales are
spreading from lip to lip, the list
eners ignoring their authenticity in
their greed for the subject matter.
No attention is paid to the source
of the reports, but the news is
hurried on and on, told on trains
and in hotels, building for Lancas-
ter a reputation akin to that OF
Hudson, one it will take years to
live down. Even the church socie-
ties take up the hue and cry, and
make dire threats upon the victims
of the gossip, but a short time since
members in good standing, not
withstanding their protests of in
nocence. The Golden Rule is OBJ
solete in the fierce frenzy of mans
inhumanity to man. 1t is the greed
of the vulture, soaring aloft with
piercing eye and dripping beak,
fiercely scanning the earth for the
reelzing carrion which forms it's
daily meal. .--y-- - -,
But consider. What dc such
rumOrs mean to the future of this
cityl Not only do they carry sui
fering to the Innocent families, but
the very life of the community is
crippled. What father from the
outlying districts would send his
children to our schools in the face
of such scandal told for the truth?
What business man or artisan would
bring his family to such social at
mosphere as that of this city is re-
ported to be- What mans honor
is safe in the hand of these
gossipsG They cry that ''Where
is so much smoke there must be
some fire." but the dread of being
mistaken or of being burned is too
great to permit a closer investiga-
ton than a birdseye view and a
blissful inhalation of the smoke.
Public opinion is worse form of
punishment than the Inquisition
ever knew, and just one in cases
of guilt; but does it always follow
fair and impartial trial9 If some
of the care and effort that is taken
to prevent the sale of liquor out of
hours were directed toward punish
ing the authors of these malicious
rumors great good could be ac-
cOmplished.
