WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The
American Consul at Nagasaki cables
the State Department today that the
japanese have sunk Russian battleship,
four other warshIps and repair ship In
the straits of Corea.
The following is the text of the dis
patch:
"NAGASAKI, May ~. = Japanese
SINK the Russian battleship Borodino
and four more waIshlps and repair
ship. !"
The other dispatches read as follows:
TOXIC. May 20. japanese fleet
engaged the Baltic squadron this after
noon In the Straits of Tsu Shilna,
which was held. Cannonading heard
from shore. -
A dispatch was received at the State
Department today saying that the
Japanese Govern ment had made the
announcement that its fleet had en-
gagged the Russians In the Straits of
Colea Saturday and had held them.
The belief in naval circles in Wash
ington is that the Japanese Iesorted to
a free use of their torpedo boats in
their attacks on the vessels of Vice
Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet. The
Japanese have large number OF tor
pedo boats IN their fleet, and they
demonstrated their effectiveness In the
operations around PoIt Arthur. Naval
officials here tonight express the
opinion that it was unlikely that such
serious losses as those reported could
have have been inflicted by ordinary
fire. 80. n. Z i.ss ~, III
From information which has been
received III Washington today. it is
believed that two of the Russian ships
repo1ted to have been sunk in the
Corean Straits by the Japanese are the
Orel and her sister ship, the borodino.
They are battleshlps of l.30O tons each.
Three other vessels reported sunk are
believed to have been cruisers, the
remaining one being repair ship.
The Ureland Borodino are of 1875, ll6
tons displacement each, heavily armed,
', ell protected and were designed to
make IS knots. They measure 391
feet by IS feet, with 26 feet dIaugh
and both have a lofty spar deck fully
30 feet above the water line, extending
from bow TO the quarter deck. For
ward is pair of II. 4inch guns in
turrer protected by eleven inches of
hrupp armor. Another PAR of guns
of the same size is mounted aft.
There are thirty other guns of the
intermediate battery and the vessels
are two submerged torpedo tubes and
two above water. "A special feature
of the vessels is their vertical longi-
tudinal huIkheads of inch armoI, run
ming throughout the whole length of
the ship at a distance of nine or ten
feet in board from the ships sides, oe-
signed to locahze the effect of blow
from a torpedo.

AT A MEETING FRIDAY
NIGHT 1T WAS DECIDED !
TO TRY AND ESTAB-
lLISH ONE.
A MODERN ASSOCIATION OR NONE At ALL
Effort Will Be Made To Enlist
The Support OF Boys,
Young Men And Older
Men In All Walks
Of Life.

"A meeting of number of Golum-
bias citizens was held Frlday'night IN
Dobbins & Ewing's office to discuss the
advisability and the feasibility of
Young Mems Christian Association
for Columbia.
The discussion was interesting and
earnest Several gentlemen present
told of associations IN other towns and
cities and What they were doing for
the physical ana moral development of
the young men. II was shown that
where there was a modern association
with all conveniences ana complete
equipment the young men attenGe6
almost as unit. some coming for the
baths. some for tho pleasure OF b0wl-
ing, some for gymnastlc exercises,
others to read. but ali we're brought
together in social. congenIal way,
and all were bIoadened and benefited.
II was decided therefore that Coium-
bia had delayed this great establishments
too dong already. That it was needed for
the pleasure and for the physical and
moral development of the young men
of the town, and for the convenience
ana pleasure of the young men of the
country. And that if Columbia would
respond literally enough to establish a
modern association, one with bowl
ing alley. good gy gymnasium. road
ing and writing room, hot ana cold
water baths and possibly swimming
pool. one would be esta blished but I'M
less it can be started fully equipped, it
will not be started at all.
The question of location came up
and 1t was the cOncensus of opinion
that centrally located residence
would prove most satisfactory and
should re secured ON long term lease.
Regarding dues, it was the opinion
that the dues should be low enough
to he within the reach OF all; not only
men and young men, but boys from
twelve years OF age and up, and that
the burden thus falling on many
shoulders would rest lightly en- all, for
it was the opinion that young men,
boys and Older men of all walks of life
should be drawn into the association
and should reap of its advantages.
Older men need physical exercise as
well as young men, and IT is well for
both young and Older men that they De
drawn more closely together,
Mr. r. c. Ewing, Ed Turner and j.
f. Brownlow were appointed d com
mittee to see the pastors OF the town
and enlist tneir support, and meet
ing will be held this week to go into
the matter more fully and arrange
some definite plan of action.

ASKS FOR
MORE Time
Interurban People Want An
Extension Until Nov. l.

At the regular meeting of the Nash
vile City Council Thursday night a
large amount of business was intro.
duced by John CasKett amendatory of
the bill granting a franchise 10 the
Nashville Interurban Railway Company
which proposes to build railway from
Columbia to Gallatin through Nash
vile. The bill extends the time in
which the company is required to begin
the construction of the road from eb.
to Nov. this year, and gives it the OPP
tion Of operating gasoline motor cars on
it's lines such as have been recently
adopted by the Union Pacific for short
line and interurban service. or the en-
ployment of the electric trolley system.
or a combination of gasoline engine and
electric motor generator.
Judge John A.. Pitts and X. T. Nc
Connico, representing the Nashville In
terurbun Railway Company, attended
the meeting and the former addressed
the Council in regard TO the proposed
amendments. Since the company had
undertaken to construct the railway, a
method of operating interurban rail
ways had been invented, admirably
adapted to interurban lines, and ia.
superior to methods previously en-
ployed. The method was the application
Of the gasoline motor to railroad trans
portatlon, an account of which was pub
lished in the Railway Age on March 40.
AsceItaining that the Union Pacific
Railway had adopted the motor engine
and was successfully operating them
in the West, an investigation was made
by the InteruThan Company. He went
to New YORK and visited the plant OF
the Standard Motor Copmany, at JeT-
sey City, where, the motors are made.
After his investigation he was con-
WINGED that they might be economically
employed on the proposed railway.
The expense of operating the gasoline
motor engines was about One-sixth
that of operating steam engines, The
company wanted the privilege of en-
ploylng this newly devised means OF
transportation and also wanted the
Council to extend the time within
which it was required to begin con.
structior to Nov. Z. If the time were
extended capital for building the road,
negotiations for which we're being con-
Quoted, could be more easily obtained.
Judge Pitts also asked the Council
to hold two meetings before its next
regular meeting in order that the bill
might be finally acted ON at its next
regular meeting. Nashville American.

Congenial work with mind and hands should be encouraged in all per sons. says the Medical World While rest may prove valuable in some cases, its application should be carefully studied and regulated. In many in- stances it may prove harmful. To quote further: "The nervous will con- plain that they do not feel like work. If left to themselves and told to do absolutely nothing, not even to read, they are sure to dwell upon their in frmities and thereby grow morose and hypochondriacal, thus increasing their invalidism. The desire for work should be encouraged in all conditions and in all classes. If ones interest is aroused even to slight degree con tinuance in the work will develop a desire for occupation. One will never feel like work if one has nothing to do. Work will often accomplish what medicine, however properly applied, will not, for it is not alone that we must earn our bread by the sweat of the brow, but every man and woman should work for the pleasure of it, as well as for the health giving, brain expanding results and the benefit of example" To doom a person to life of complete rest after years of strenu- ous activity often proves disastrous. By this method the last citadel of health is overthrown and the break down Is complete.
