THE NEW YEAR.

The wear 1905 began its course at II
o. clock last Saturday night, and 1914
/ ,ok its place in history. The world
during the next twelve months is to re-
neat its orbitaI course, and the seasons
will come and go as usual. While no
one can penetrate the future, there Is no
: ,ecial indication of abnormal conditions
characterizng the year upon which we
nave entered. 1t will be a repetition OF
,he Journey of life to all The plOd OF
humanity will continue, and while pleas
ant paths will occasionally cheer weary
pilgrims more serious scenes viii often
test the patience, faith and long suffering
of all. The course will vary but little
from that which has formerly been trod.
The gloomy winter will be followed by
balmy spring, which in turn will give
place TO summer. The leaves will even
tually assume the flush of death and fall
from the trees and the melancholy days
will portend the approach of the season
through which we are now passing.
Numbers have formed resolutions Tor the
year, while equally as many have map
ped out programmes for business and
..Iooe,,.o All raval in hOne-all that
was left to the thoughtless Pandora
May each and every Cue strive to per-
form his or her mission in a conscientl-
GUS manner aud at the close OF the year,
should miscarriages occur, all can enjoy
the satisfaction of knowing they have
done their best. Angels can do no
more.

As HERETOFORE stated a whipping
post for the District Of Columbia was
strongly recommended by the grand jury
that made its final report last Friday to
the Supreme Court Of the District. Ever
since President Roosevelt, in his last
message, took up the matter, there has
been growing sentiment for such pun
i.hment for wife-b eaters and petty thieves.
The grand jury said;
The desirability of establishing the
whipping post as means OF Furnishing
wife heaters and petty larceny ofienses
has been investigated by this body, and
the majority of the members are OF the
opinion that it would prove very effective
in decreasing the number OF these repre-
hensible crimes.
To be in fashion is fine and in this
case may result in good. The President
having recommended the setting up OF
whipping posts there has followed there
upon Endorsement of the suggestion by
clergy and laity and now the grand jury.
Men supposed to be filed with the milk
of human kindness have been most for
ward in approval, and if a fair trial is
given il will be found that under the
corrective persuasion OF the slash many
scoundrels will be made better men in
deed if not at heart, while the criminal
ext enses will be cut in two.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END.

The principal forts of Port Arthur are
now falling in rapid succession before
the desperate attacks of the japanese,
and il, is certain that either surrender
or the final struggle of all is near at
hand. 1t is evidently General Nogis
intention to make determined effort to
to get entire possession of the great Rus
sian fortress before the arrival of the
Russian second Pacific squadron in that
vicinity.
Through their capture Saturday OF
Sungshu Mountain and the taking yes
terdRy of fort on PanIung Mountain
the besieging forces now have possession
of the entire line between Rihlung
Mountain and Panlung. The japanese
right has captured the heights south of
Housanyentao.
The effectiveness of the extensive MIN
ing operations by the japanese the last
three months is now apparent. One
after another the walls OF the forts are
being split aud destroyed by dynamite.
japanese guns now command both towns
as well as the harbor.
The departure from Port Said of Rear
Admiral Botrovsky's third division of
the Russian second Pacific squadron has
been postponed,
The lines of the blockade of Port Ar
thur have been reduced, according to a
proclamation signed by Admiral Togo,
which WIS issued esterday. The new
line commences az the south head Of
Talienwan and runs southwesterly, clear-
ing Dalny, to the south head of South
Bay. All Liaotung westward of the line is
included in the blockade. Evidently il
is intended to open Dalny to foreign
shipping, but for the present only yes
sells having special permission will be
admitted

Railroad Accidents.

Gettysburg, Pa, Jan. while an
extra engine on the Philadelphia *
Reading Railroad was on the way to
Harrisburg, early this morning, it
plunged through aderailing switch about
800 yards east of the river at Carlisle
junction, and overturned. The fireman
escaped by jumping, but engineer Newton
Shaeffer was buried beneath the pondtF
Gus locomotive, and was crushed and
scalded to death. 1t is not known
whether the operator failed to display
signals or whether the engineer dir
obeyed them, if they were displayed. A
jury has been impanelled to determine
who shall be blamed.
Clarksburg, w. Va. Jan. 2 An ac.
comdation passenger train on the West
Virginia and Pttsburg division of the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad running from
Perkins to Fairmont, was wrecked near
West Craddock, in Lewis county this
morning. The engine struck a land
slide of rocks on the track and plunged
into the river, carrying the mail and
express cars with it. The passenger
coaches, remained on the track. Engi-
neer CARGO, of Fairmont, was pinned
under the engine in the river. He is
still alive, but no doubt fatally injured,
and efforts are being made to get him
out. Many passengers were on the
train, and all were slightly injured.

Hearld, American Ambassador Choate,

tory letter: 81 have not heard of any

unusual for an Ambassador to appeal to
his fellow cOuntrymen for charity in a

very urgent case would have to exist
to warrant such action if, indeed, il
would be warrantable under any cir
cumstances.
