About noon Saturday, far eastern
time, which Is twelve hours ahead Of
American time, Togo gave the order
to attack. The maneuver he observed
was described as that of q melee. His
torpedo craft are thought to have dash
ed like a cloud of hornets at the Rus
sian battle line. 1t was here that Ro-
~jestvensky is believed to have suffer-
ed the loss Of his battleships and
cruisers.
The Borodino, one of the finest of his
first-class battleships, and the Sissoi
Veliky, a second class battleship Of
5000 tons, were the first victims. The
Captain Serebrynikoff, an officer who
commanded the armored cruiser Rurik,
which was sunk by the squadron Of
Admiral Kamimura last August in the
sea of Japan.
The Veliky is supposed to have had
aboard either Rear Admiral Foelker-
sham or Rear Admiral Nebogatoff, so
that this must have been q serious
blow to the second Russian division
and probably disorganized 1t.
Runs Gauntlet of Death.
Rojestvensky appears to have at
tempted to continue upon his way, his
object probbaly being to pass through
the Straits Of Korea and get into the
sea Of Japan, where the armored cruis-
ers and torpedo boats from Vladivos-
tok were waiting.
To accomplish this maneuver he
had to run the gantlet not only of the
guns, the torpedoes fired by surface
craft and submarines, but of the rams
Of some of the coast defense ships Of
his adversary.

Muscovite AdmiraI's Effort to
Deceive the Japanese Fails
Completely.
Dream of Russia for Success in the
War Seems Ended by This
Disaster.

Admiral Togo has won a victory Of
colossal magnitude if all reports from
the seat Of war should be confirmed by
later advices. 1t is announced that
Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet has been
practically annihilated during a big sea
battle in the straits Of Korea on Sat
urday and Sunday. Twelve warships
have been sunk or captured and two
transports and two torpedo boat de-
stroyers have been sunk.
One report which is given much
credence is that Admiral Kamimura,
working practically independently Of
Togo, but under the commanders gen
eral orders, has taken an important
share in the combat.
The story is that after the first battle
The Miller sun. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 190?-19??, 1905-06-07

many Of the good Russian ships broke
past Togo's line and made for the
North. Here, when the Slavs thought
they saw escape in sight. it is said,
Kamimura vas in waiting, and a sec
ond battle was fought. This proved
the doom of the Russians.
The Japanese sunk the Russian bat
tleships Borodino and Sissoi Veliky,
and perhaps the battleship Orel, and
badly damaged the battleship Kniaz
%Souvarof, flagship of Vice Admiral
Rojestvensky. In addition to these
ships the Jap fleet has sunk the Rus
sian armored cruisers Dmitri Donskoi,
Admiral Nakimhoff and Vladimir Mo-
nomakh, and a number of torpedo boat
destroyers.
The damage Togo has sustained is
not known. The japanese have not
permitted any information concerning
their losses to leak out, nor have they
communicated it to any Of the diplo-
matte representatives Of foreign powers
In Toxic.
All they admit is that they have suf-
Tered heavily, but they still have a suf-
nciently formidable force in shape to
continue the pounding of the flying
Russian forces.
Frightful Loss Of Life.
What the losses sustained by the per-
sopnel total cannot be a~scertained. II
IL believed, however, that the Rus
SLAMS have lost at least 1900 killed,
wounded and drowned. One Of their
cruisers, the Admiral Naklmhoff. 1t is
believed, was blown up and the 600
Souis aboard were either killed or
drowned.

About dusk you struggle In with
trout or game. The campkeeper lays
aside his mending or his repairing or
his notebook and stirs up the cooking
fire. The smell Of broiling and frying
arises in the air. BY the dancing
flames of the campfire you eat your
third dinner for the day-in the noun
tains all meals are dinners, and for
midable ones, at that.
The curtain of blackness draws
down close. Through it SHINE stars,
loom mountains cold and mistlike in
the moon. You tell stories. You smoke
pipes. After a time the pleasant chill
creeps down from the eternal SHOWS.
Some one throws another handful OF
pine cones on the fire. Sleepily you
prepare for bed. The pine cones fare
up, throwing their light in your eyes.
You turn over and wrap the soft wool
en- blanket close about your chin. You
wink drowsily and at once you are
asleep.
Late in the night You awaken to find
your nose as cold as a dogs. You
open one eye. A few Goals mark
where the fire has been. The mist
mountains have drawn nearer, they
seem to bend over you in silent con-
temptation. The moon is sailing high
in the heavens. With a sigh you draw
the canvas tarpaulin over your head.
Instantly it is mornings. u. White,

Another Speedy Cure of an Itching
Humor with Loss of Hair by the Cuti-
cura Remedies.
For two years my neck was covered
with sores, the humor spreading to my
hair, which fell out, leaving an I'M
slightly bald spot, and the soreness,
Inflammation, and merciless itching
made me wild. Friends advised Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and
after a few applications the torment
subsidized, to my great JOY. The sores
soon disappeared, and my hair grew
again, as thick and healthy as ever.

just Discrimination i'm Railway
Rates.

All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in a responsible way
are likely to agree with President
Samuel Spencer Of the Southern Rail-
way when he says: There Is no divis-
ion of opinion as to the desirability OF
stopping all secret or unjustly discrim-
inatory devices and practices of what
oeyer character"
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking of unjust.
ly discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes a distinction which Is at once
apparent to common sense. There may
be discrimination In freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex COM
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have
to deal. To abolish such open and
honest discrimination might paralyze
the industries of cities, States and
whole sections Of our national terri
tory.
This distinction between just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of the Inter
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should be based on commercial
principles, taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the commercial
value OF the services rendered. With the
reservation that rates shall be charged with
out, arbitrary discrimination to all shippers
alike under like conditions, the making Of
rates should as far as possible have all the
elasticity necessary to permit the develop
ment Of the ira ic and to produces the great
est results to the public and to the rail-
roads themselves"
The present proposal is, as Mr..
Walker d. Hines of Louisville showed
liz his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate committee at
Washington, to crystalline flexible and
justly discriminatory rates into fixed
government rates which cannot be
changed except by the Intervention Of
some government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase "the tempta-
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet
some oyerpowering and urgent COM
mercial condition."-New York Sun.

The Need OF Commercial schools.

INC Nceu VI SOIlNicTCIa SCbCOtSs
The most interesting educational de-
velopment in Germany 70 me is the de-
velopment Of higher commercial edu-
cation, writes Frank A. Vanderlip in
Scribner's. We recognize that an engi-
neer or q mechanic will profit by a
technical education. There is no longer
a doubt that a technical education will
enable such a man to outstrip in the
long run his fellows who have equal
ability, but have learned only in the
J slower and less scientific school of ex-
perience. There are as good reasons, l
an convinced, for giving the banker or
the merchant a technical commercial
education. The schools do not turn
out a practical engineer, nor will they
turn out a practical banker or mer-
chant, but l believe that there is a
great amount of information needed by
a man in commercial life which is ca
pable of scientific classification, and
can be taught with much greater eff
ficiency, and with much less loss Of
time, in a properly organized school
than it can be gathered in the ordinary
course of an apprenticeship in a bust
ness career.

A One-Eared Gar.

The uneducated peasants in the
Cherson province OF Russia have
an extraordinary belief that the
car has only one ear. They are
confirmed in their belief by pic
lures and photographs of the car
showing side face view, and nat
urally exhibiting only one ear.
They account for the absence of
the other in the following man
ner:
Some time ago a deputation
from their province waited upon
the car, and in the course of the
meeting the car is said to have
stated that all Russian land would
be divided equally among the
peasants of the various districts
To this one Of the deputation
boldly said:
"As sure as you cannot see
your own ears you will not divide
the land"
The cars reply to this was to
cut off one of his (the czar's)
ears, which he placed upon the
table, remarlling as he did so:
"As surely as | now see my ear
| will divide the land"
To this day the Clerson peas
ants firmly believe that he has
only one ear, and unless the czal
visits them in person and proves
to them by optical demonstration
that he possesses the correct mum
Der this extraordinary belief will
not be shaken.
