ported that Tie Pass has been hastily

St. Petersburg, March 16.-The fol-
lowing dispatch has been received from
General Kuropatkin: 'Our troops are
passing through Telling in good order
on my route to the north. Our troops
have been recognized and drawn up 10
readiness for further fighting"
Paris, March 16.-Developments
from the seat OF war which might result
in the possible transfer of Russian
territory to the japanese are being
anxiously watched. In political circles
it is considered that = grave international
crisis impends as we'll as internal affairs
of importance.
st. Petersburg, March 1.-THE
rapid occupation of Telling by the Japa.
nese has caused the greatest alarm for
General KuropatkIn's entire force. 1t
was generally believed that the Rus
SLAMS could hold the japanese at bay
there for several days, when, alter in
hic!ing a great deal of slaughter, the
army could retire successfully north
ward. The apparent ease with which
the japanese have taken Telling has
dissipated all the rejoicing which was

of exceeding his orders in pushing be-
yond Sandepu and Becoming involved
In an engagement with the japanese 10
which the Russians lost heavily. Gen
eral Gripenberg asserted that he had
not violated orders and that his loss was
due to the failure of General Kuropatkin
to support him in the engagement.
General Gripenberg's recall was de.
manded, by Kuropatkin, and he returned
to st. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg, March l6.-It is an
nOunced that the first conference at the
office OF the Minister of the Interior in
regard to the calling of q represen tative
assembly will be held on March 29. The
holding of a conference on this subject is
in line with the policy announced By
the Car in his rescript of two weeks ago.

Japan will proceed to war for their pos

son of moderate intelligence can fail to
see through this veil. Many things could
ne said to controyert such hallucination,
but few only will be necessary for peo'
ole not disposedto panicor whose minds
do not dwell on imaginary events Of
the future. 10 the first place it must be
apparent 10 all that japan is being severe
~ drained by the war she is waglng on
Russia. and should the Mikado emerge
triumphant over the Mascoviie, his coun'
iry will not for many years be in con-
d;tion TO cross swords with any other
nation. 1t will take a quarter of GEN.
tury for Jaoan to recuperate from the
conflict. Besides all this, there are many
reasons why japan can have no serious
objection to the United States holding

II is far more to her interests to Gust

be no doubt that Japan aspires to be the

WAS once said by distinguished
republican, Green B. Raum, that "a
modern politician could not afford to be
consistent" Indeed, on every hand
at all times, and most everywhere,
fresh evidences are given OF the declare
ton that nothing is so inconsistent as
consistency" The debates in Council
ON Tuesday night fully illustrate the
force of the words last quoted. While
the Common Council was debating re-
port from the street and finance COM
mittees to commence a sewer which will
empty into Hooff7s run, the Board OF
Aldermen was discussing the proposed
uersonnel of committee to visit Wash
ington city for the purpose OF protesting
against the dumping or emptying OF the
Washington sewage in the Potomac
river two miles above Alexandria.
In the Common Council some of the
members discussed with much spirit
the. proposition TO empty the sewage OF
a large area Of the city in a very shallow
run, perhaps in places not ten feet wide,
and the committees reporting the part
appropriation for $S5, 900 sewer were
warned that persons living near the run
had some rights and would assert them.
Alexandrisns will present sorry plight
protesting against the Washington sew
age being emptied mile or 80 above our
city, and insisting upon sweeping our
own dirt in front of our neighbours door.
If our financial condition, present and
prospective, is so healthy that we can
build a $$5, 900 sewer to carry of storm
water from a section which, at some
future time, is to develop into magic
city, we'll and good, but if not, then let
AIS wait and spend the money on our
streets, when the present taxpayers can
get the benefits. Sewers ara all right,
but not the only desideratum.

DR.. BERNAYs, of ST. Louis, writing
in the Medical News, says that in many
of the so-caled operations for append:
citis the appendix is found to be quite
normal, or only showing slight inaam-
nation, aud that in all such cases the
only good is the mental relief Of the pa
tent. He admits to feeling embarrassed
when he extracts one of these normal
organs, and says that in one hospital six
or eight case, occurred in a single day.
Now is there any wonder at sensible
people growing skeptical concerning
operations for appendicitis?
