NO BONUS FOR KING PETER.
Story That servia Will Give Him
100000 is Denied.

Belgrade, March 6-The allegation
made by Mr. Balongdics, former pri-
vate secretary to King Peter, that the
Servian government intended to pre-
sent King Peter with 100000 is au-
thoritatively denied. The government
last year secretly discussed the advis-
ability of restoring to the crown all Of
the Karageorgevics' domains confisca-

this gave rise to unfounded rumors.

st. Petersburg, March 6.-The result
of the greatest battle of modern times
Is expected to be determined today or
tomorrow. Two of the largest armies
Of recent times, both IN men and guns,
are now locked in a deathly struggle
and altho Kuropatkin has evidently
made every preparation to cover his
retreat by removing his accumulated
stores and munitions northward, it Is
{ now the opinion Of military men here
that one side or the other, cannot es-
cane without overwhelming disaster.
with both wings bent backward Kur-
s opatkin's position appears to be des-
perate, but the issue is still in the ball
ar,ce. News Of victory for him is only
regarded possible by his breaking thru
senveloping lines and news of q concen-
\ trated offensive Is hourly awaited. Un-
less Kuropatkfn can strike, and strike
hard, It Is realized that he must lose.
Oyama's strategy in this battle is now
S clear. He startled and amazed the war
office by the marvellous daring of Kur-
okrs advance against the extreme RUS
sian left and a series Of blows delivered
q the center where no less than thir-
teen separate attacks have been
launched by the imperial guards ten
miles east Of Poutiloff hill. But it is
now realized the heavy blows at the
left were intended to mask the real
turning movement which came like a
bolt from a clear sky out Of the west.
Kuropatkin fellsinto the trap. The sit
suation seemed an exact duplicate of
that at Liao Yang and the Russian
commander-in in-chief fastened to mass
his forces to meet Kuroki. Friday the.
whole situation was suddenly reversed
when with lightning rapidity the Japs
turning operation began on the plain
between the Hun and Lao rivers.
In order to succeed Oyama threw
the neutrality Of China to the winds.
Nogi, with his Port Arthur veterans,
moved up he right bank Of the Hun and
fell like an avalanche upon the weak
ened Russian right, doubling it back
In confusion, the Japg advance being
co-ordinated with the advance straight
from the west Of Japanese column of,
10000 men. which circled around or
thru Chinese neutral territory. Altho

column westward of Mukden were cir
culated. as long ago as Tuesday. Kuro-
patkin evidently was taken by surprise,
possibly refusing to believe the Japs
would thus openly fling. Chinese neu-
trality to the winds. At any rate it
was not until Saturday night that he
was able to shift sufficient reinforce
ments west to stem the tide. when the
Japs were within sight OF Mukden.
But the latest advices are to the effect
that the Japs exhausted by their tre-
mendous efforts have everywhere
stopped and now, if ever. Kuropatkins'
hour has come The Japanese lines
are extended over sixty miles, while
Kuropatkin's are constantly contract
ing. Besides he has the advantage for
offensive Of operating in the interior
OF his lines. Military critics declare
that oyama has not great enough SUI
periority to take the risks. According

full If any attraction in Southern Cali

pete for patronage with Abbot Kinney's s
Venice of America. At least ten thou
sand persons visited the site today,
every one of whom after an hours
inspection appeared to be of the same
mind, namely, that the scheme is the
most gigantic and bewildering of any,
thing recently introduced in this Sec
tion of the state. The great ship hotel
now almost finished, proved of especial
interest to the vast crowds, while the
monster auditorium in course of erec-
tion at the end of the pier was viewed
with wonder and surprise by the vis-
itors. Windward avenue must be seen
to be appreciated. On this thorough
fare, which ten months ago was bare
stretch of sand, today stands parallel
row of slightly structures. every one of
which was leased before the building
was begun.
At Ocean Park, Playa del Rey and

VENTURA, June 11,-With warm
nights. low fogs and warm sunshine
during the middle of the day for some
time past the growing beans and beets
are springing forward with amazing
progress. The acreage of lima beans
throughout the county is very large,
and the stand is even and the young
plants are of splendid color. Planting
In many places was late on account of
the late rains and cool weather, but
the late crop is now fast gaining its
place with that of the earlier planting.
If the present weather continues the
harvest will doubtless be large one.
Sugar beets. of which this county can
ddly. Those planted early are now
nearly ready for harvest and are of
good size and quality. The sugar fac
tory at Oxnard will start early in July,
and the run will be the longest in the
history of the plant.
The hay crop, which is nearly all cut,
is very good in most places, although
in a few localities 1t is short and rust
is prevalent. Baling has begun in some
places.
The county's corn crop will be con-
siderably larger than for several years,
as land which cannot be irrigated has
sufficient moisture to produce a crop.
Throughout the Ojai valley consider
able wheat and oats are being grown
and are looking well. The heads of
wheat are of good size and stand
thickly.
Orange shipping continues, the fruit
being of an unusually good quality and
of good size.
The apricot crop, taking the county
as a whole, will be short, but orchards
on Ventura avenue are well loaded.
Among the best of these is that of the
old Capt. Hubbard place, where it has
become necessary to prop up every
tree.
From present Indications it is to be
an off year for walnuts. Many of the
trees leaved out only partially.
Small fruits and berries are generally
good. Blackberries are plentiful.
The county board of supervisors is
now discussing the advisability of es-
tablishing a pumping plant for the
court house and grounds. The probable
cost is being figured upon.

WINS s11OO LOT
SQUIRREL CONTEST COMES TO
A CLOSE
DEED IS READY FOR DELIVERY
YOUNG Married Man Gets Within
Seven Tenths of a Mile of
Exact Distance
Travelled
IEED is READY FOR DELIVERY

The Herald squirrel guessing contest
closed Saturday night. and A. M. Eddy
of 1905 East Fifteenth street is the
winner of the $1100 lot in the Grider &
Hamilton Grant Place tract in Holly
wood. he having made the closest guess
as to the number Of miles the squirrels
would travel in their cage in the ninety
days the contest lasted.
Mr.. Eddy made thirty guesses his
highest being 1918 $40 miles and his
lowest guess being S15 $40 miles. The
guess which won the lot was S49 7-10
miles, which was within six-tenths of
a mile of the exact distance Travelled
by the squirrels, the cyclometer show
ing $40 1-10 miles at the hour of clos
ing the contest on Saturday night.
Mr. Eddy is 81 years old, married and
the father of one child, an interesting
He is employed in the meter connection
department of the Edison Electric COM
pany, and had been a resident of Los
Angeles exactly three years to a day
on last Saturday, coming to this city
from Buffalo, where he held a respon-
sible position with the American Ex-
press company
With commendable zeal and acute
business acumen, he settled down upon
his arrival to overcome the defect of
not being a native son by marrying a
Los Angeles girl, and that he displayed
good judgment is proved by the fact
that ever since the wedding day, two
years ago, Dame Fortune has smiled
continuously upon him.
He is buying upon the installment
plan the home in which he resides, and
his good fortune in winning The Herald
lot will no doubt be a desirable addition
to his assets.
He is a graduate of Westbrook Com
mercial college, New York, winning a
$400 scholarship in that institution in
1898. He is an Industrious young man,
and is slowly yet surely making his
way to the top of the ladder by devotion
to duty and a thorough knowledge of
the business in which he is engaged.
That he was born under lucky star
is not to be doubted. In addition to
winning The Herald lot and the $4OO
scholarship he has often pulled down
the grand prize in raff1es of various
sorts, his latest winning in a rattle oc-
curing a few days ago. when he beat
the other contestants guessing and was
awarded bicycle.
In fact. the guessing habit is so strong
with him that he lovingly uses the
word "guess" at every opportunity.
When notified that he had won the lot
he replied, "Oh, guess not" When
asked If he would call at The Herald
Office for the deed he replied, Yes,
guess 1 will" It's dollars to doughnuts
that when he dies and gets into the
inevitable argument with st. Peter over
his admission within the pearly gates
he will guess his way inside.
The contest was open for ninety days
and several thousand guesses were
filed. Mr.. Eddy, however, led all con-
testants by good margin and will re-
ceive a deed to the lot today.
