The city has no desire to see a fort
on Punchbowl, and it is understood
that the engineering board of the army
did not recommend one, though some
thing was said about a battery of NOR
tars there. Forts are supposed to de-
fend city, not to invite it's destruc-
ton, as a fort on Punchbowl would do

thousands upon thousand of gallant
lives, and by the capture and occu-
patton of which the japanese besieg-
ers have been able to dominate the
"doomed city and to annihilate the
Russian squadron, has at last, after
repeated costly failures, been won back
by the Russians after a most terrific
battle begun in the bitter cold and
darkness of midnight and ended hours
after the sun had Illuminated the
corpse strewn hill.
The japanese, after their success at
the Kee-Kwan, attempted to carry the
Itz-su-shan works in the same manner.
The Russians fell back from their out
ermost line and allowed the Japanese
to get between the works when a muir
derous hail of rifle, shrapnel, machine
gun fire and the use of the hand gre
made at close quarters swept the at
lacking column back, Keeling and shat
tered beyond the outer works and down
the hill A whitening fire was
turned upon the discounted stormers
as their broken ranks surged back.
Star shells made the field, for the at
tack was made in the night light as
day and aided the defenders to see
their enemy.
After the reverse at the It-zu-shan
the japanese being naturally some
what dispirited and in need of recu-
peration, the Russians seized the OPP
portunity to again attempt the storm
ing of the 203 metre hill. The assault
began shortly after midnight of We'd
nesday and fully a third of the Rus
sian garrison was employed. A fierce
attack by way of diversion was or
dered upon the east Kee-kwan fort
after the storming party was well on
it's way up the hill. The resistance of
the Japanese garrison of the fortif1ca-
tions was characterized by extreme /
desperation.
The total Russian loss is not report |
ed yet but is known to be over regi- |
nent OF men.

TARO FLOUR FACTORY
MAY Be CONSTRUCTED

James Armstrong is figuring on a
factory for the production of taro flour,
grist which sells under a special trade
name for 80 cents a pound. Taro is the
most digestible of foods, the flour is
good for invalids and for a, children's
ration, and it is an antjdote for jag.
Its use on the mainland is gradually
extending and Mr.. Armstrong thinks
he sees a fortune ahead. Should the
factory be built the former rice fields
here and on the other islands may be
used for raising taro instead

Hempel Well Pleased

Coach Hempel was we'll pleased with
the performances of his men, several
of whom exceeded anything done in
practice. Trainer Dad Moulton of
Stanford in speaking of the meet, said
1t was a fine field day. He felt that
the Stanford men had been treated
nicely. He was disgusted, however,
he said, with the way certain of his
men fell off from their former records.
Among those who watched the meet
was the captain of the New York Ath-
letic club, H. H. Baxter, who held the
worlds record for the pole vault at IL
feet inches from 1875 to 1892, and
Pritchard, formerly of the same club,
who held the record of feet 2 inches
for the high jump.

Special to The Herald.
CLAREMONT, April 1.-The track
men from stanford university defeated
Pomona college today in one of the
finest field meets that Southern Cali
fornia has ever witnessed. The final
score stood 81 to 36 in favor of STAN
ford, but there was hardly an event
i'm which the plucky men from the
southern college did not compete
closely.
Seven Records Lowered
Seven Southern California records
were lowered, those for the mile, two
mile, high and low hurdles, half mile,
hammer throw and shot put. The Po-
mona men established new college rec
ords in the broad jump, shot put and
two mile run.
Miller began the point winning for
Stanford taking the mile from Himrod
by about six yards. Miller is only a
freshman at Stanford, but he runs in
excellent form. He has a preparatory
record of minutes and 32 seconds.
The 10O-yard dash was slow. 1t was
taken by Wood, much to the surprise
of the Stanford men, who had counted
on Edwards to win for them. Spurgeon
of Pomona ran almost dead heat
with Wood.
Horton Takes High Hurdles
The high hurdles held another sur
prise for Stanford when Horton won
from Mccormick of Pomona in 16 1-5
seconds, much faster time than he has
ever done in practice.
The two-mile run was taken by Po-
mona. Burr of Stanford held the lead
until the last lap, when he was passed
by Voorhees,, who finished ten yards
ahead, making a record of 10 minutes
% 2-5 seconds, which is thirty seconds
faster than has been done in any other
southern field meet this year.
Stanford annexed all three places in
the low hurdles and seemed liable to
do the same in the half-mile run, when
Brown of Pomona by a magnificent
finish almost succeeded in passing
Miller, the winner. The race was run
in the fast time of . minutes and 3
seconds.
In the field events the noteworthy
feature was the performance of Thomas
of Pomona. who cleared 21 feet 101s
inches in the broad jump, distance
nearly foot better than he has done
before. What makes this jump re-
markable is the fact that Thomas is Il
one-armed man, but in spite of this
disadvantage he uses himself well as
an athlete.
In the shot put every distance was
over forty feet. Horton of Stanford
won at Al feet =. inch.

SOUTHERN IDEA.

Georgia has every right to be proud
of her interest in Theodore Roosevelt,
because il is the best part ot him.
There has been no president who has
won more admiration from the whole
people, in the last century, than has
Roosevelt. While nominaly a Repub'
lican, elected on a Republican platform,
his great vote was evidently secured by
deflections of Democrats who admired
the man and balloted for him at the
polls. His inspirations and actions at
this time are wholly democratic, SO
democratic, in fact, that many of the
old, live, stalwart, stand patter Repub'
licans are in state of mutiny and on
the verge of jumping the reservation at
any moment. 1t is even said that the
southern trip of the President was to
gain strength in the South so that he
may be able at the proper time to defy
the old rulers of Republieanism. What
Democratic President could possibly be
more Democratic on the trust issue, the
railroad question, the tariff reform mat
term fact, the whole battle of the
people against corporate domination
than is Theodore Roosevelt, the Presi'
dent elected by the Republican party'
Csndor compels the admission that the
rare combination of the Puritan and the
Cavalier is rapidly becoming the Presi'
dent of the whole people,-Augusta Her

SILLY AND FAR FETCHED.

The ruling Of Commissioner Of lnternl
al Revenue Yerkes that physician can.
not prescribe whiskey as medicine
without taking out a license may be
intended to check an alleged evil in pro-
hibition towns and TO keep men sober
on Sundays, but it is too sweeping and
is capable of great mischief. A physician
is supposed to know when a patient
really needs a stimulant of that kind.
Some of them give prescriptions con-
tainig a small amount of brandy when,
in their judgment, the condition Of the
patient demands IL, even prescribing a
modicum of whiskey with quinine as a
tonic when a patients system is run
down" and the need Of powerful
,timulant is felt. To make a common
liquor dealer Of a physician Is absurd
and unjust. The licenses cost enough
money, and no physician prescribes
whiskey enough in his practice to justi'
fy its exaction. Mr.. Yerkes' ruling will
probably be oyerruled. It should be, al
any rate. In the last analysis 1t Is idi'
otic.

FOOL PROPOSITION.

A curious question of jurisdiction has
arisen between the State of Virginia and
the United States, Federal employe,
who is also citizen of that State, being
the "casus belli." I seems one William
Parker, who is lighthouse keeper sta
toned on Chincoteague Bay, was sum
moned to serve on a sherifrs posse, to
apprehend an alleged murderer, but, as
to obey the summons meant to abandon
the light, and thus endanger navigation
and possibly imperil lives, he decided
that his first duty was to the Federal
rather than the State Government. a
conclusion many will, in an unofficial
and exra. judicial way, be inclined to
agree with. The point is that, on his
appearance on the mainland q month
later. he was arrested by the local au.
thorities for disobeying the sheriff :
summons, and held Tor trlal Inc De-
partment of Commerce, in whose employ
Parker is. has asked the Department Of
Justice to defend him, and this will be
done. The outcome will be watched
with considerable interest, as it may es.
tablish a precedent, although just such
case may not occur again in a cen.
tury
