and If they did not receive attention
within an hour they died Surgeons,
their assistants and nurses were al
most powerless in the tandaging of
wounds, for they were obliged to wear
leather gloves or mittens in order to
resist the cold. The men seemed to
be living again the horrors of the win
ter campaign of 1912 against the
Turks. Everything that could be
done was done, but man was power
less in the face of the weather which
heaped tortures upon the troops and
defeated the well thought out plan Of
the commander.
No PaIpable Result.
Russian headquarters, Huan Noun
tain, Feb, 2.-The five days battle on
the Hun river has yielded no paIpable
result, both sides practically maintain
ing their former positions, though it
is true that at heavy cost the Russians
succeeded in driving the Japanese
out of their advanced positions and
repelling their thanking column. The
Russian cavalry proved extremely eff
cient. There is again a hull in the
campaign and it is possible that mill
tary operations viii be suspended IN
til the end Of February.
Battle May Not Be Ended.
st. Petersburg, Feb. From re
ports of the general staff it is not
clear yet whether the fighting on the
Hum river is ended. The Russians
continue the bombardment of Sande-
pas and apparently a strong force OF
Russians is between Sandepas and
ShaksepU to check the Japanese, who
seem to be trying TO use their former
turning movement across Hun river.
Nothing further has been heard Of the
Russian movement against the Japa-
nese right.

Dillingham; supporting the measure as
it stands and the other two sem
ators contending for amendments
and the right of the four
territories to be admitted as so many

Vermont had refrigerated and quoted
figures to show that there had been q
falling off in the value and number Of
farms in that state. Senator Dilling
ham replied that this condition was
due to the consolidation Of small

Houses Settle Difference.
The house provision in the army ap-
preparation bill limiting the pay Of re-
tired officers strictly to the retired pay
of their rank, which has been the sub
ject of disagreement between the two
houses, was settled in conference by
the senate accepting the house pro-
vision in principle. The wording or
the provision was so changed there
can be no doubt that such officers
shall receive the retired pay to which
their rank entities them. There are
dozen other differences between the
two houses on the army bill.
Matrimonial Statistics.
Senator Quarles introduced a reso>
luton requiring the census bureau to
collect statistics relative to marriage
and divorces in the United States.
More Money for Agriculture.
The agricultural appropriation bill
was reported to the senate by Senator
Proctor. 1t carries appropriations az
gregating $6,7S7,17O an increase OF
$206,740 over the bill passed by the
house. The principal items Of in
crease are $71,540 for the bureau OF
animal industry, $4,000 for the bu-
reau of plant industry, $67, 260 for the
bureau of forest service, $4,000 each
for the bureau of chemistry, weather
bureau and public roads.
Winter Wheat Suffers.
The weather bureau in it's summary
of crop conditions for January ind1-
Gates that winter wheat was generally
well protected westward of the Mis-
sissippi river and also in portions of
the Ohio valley and middle Atlantic
states, burt over much of the last
named district there was insufficient
snow Or rain during the severest
weather and in portions of Illinois and
Indiana it is feared the crop has sui
fered injury, large areas being COW
cred with ice.
Congressman Near TO Death.
Representative Samuel w. Smith
of Michigan is i'll with pneumonia at
| his apartments in this city. Last
night he was slightly better than
earlier in the day but his condition is
considered very grave. Mrs. Smith
and "a son are with Mr.. Smith. Three
other sons, one of whom is at West
Point and the other two in Michigan,
have been telegraphed to come to
Washington.
Representative Marsh of Illinois IS
ill with "a severe cold. His condition
is serious. Mrs. Marsh arrived ID re-
slronse to Geographic summons.
Public Debt Grows.
The public debt statement for Janu-
arv shows the debt less cash in the
treasury $685., 929,619, an increase for
the month of $4,3SO, 29S, accounted for
principally by decrease in cash on
hand. The receipts for January were
s43.41O. 2S5, expenditures $49, 62S,299.

causes, in so far as they are economic,
which led to the recent strike, were
delivered by Emperor Nicholas yesten
day to wCrkingmen who at his invita-
tlOn jouneyed to Tsarskoe Selo ana
We're received in audience in AIexan,
der palace, where he has his winter
residence.
This interview face to face with
their little father" in whom their
faith has not been shaken by the
events of the bloody Sunday of Janu-
airy p, has had a far greater and more
reassuring effect than any number of
prOclamatiOns by the ministers and
governors general, and the workmen
| OF st. Petersburg are now generally
inclined to accept the promises of
Governor General Trepoff and Finance
Minister kekOvsOff at their face value.
The gift by the imperial family OF
$4,000 to aid the families of the vic
TINS Of the conflict of January % also
has had an excellent effect and as the
news slowly permeates the laboring
| classes of Russia it is expected that 1t
will make them content to wait for
the promised reforms.
Strike Still Spreads.
The strike movement, however, is
| spreading over the great sea of Rus
sian industrial life, and while st. Pc
tersburg and Moscow are now placid,
the worlzmen of Poland and other
provinces are not yet calm, and the
| trouble has reached several Siberian
! towns.
Emperor Nicholas adopted the trad1-
tional fatherly tone in his talk with
the woRkmen. He chided them for al
lowing themselves to be misled into
engaging in movement imperilling
the internal order Of Russia and aiding
the foreign foe and for attempting to
demand by force what he otherwise
would be willing to do voluntarily.

suranceS of reform with cheers ana

turned to st. Petersburg in the best
Of humor to report to their fellows as
enjoined, the words of his majesty.
Workers in Good Spirits.
No attempt was made by them to
present their desires, which already
are sufficiently evident The action or
the st. Petersburg manufacturers in
placing themselves in the hands of the
government in the matter of adjust
ment of the main points of the dispute
and to grant the men pay for the
time they have been on a strike, not
as a matter of right, but as a favor,
and their contribution in aid of the
sufferers among the families of their
workmen, are expected to add to the
prevailing good feeling.
The retirement of Prince Sviatopolk-
Mirsky from the ministry Of the in
terror has been accomplished in such
a way as to indicate that the emperor
is satisfied to be rid of a minister of
avOwed liberal tendencies. The fore
cast that NJ. BOuligan will be named
for minister Of the interior is con
strued as indicating a recognition of
Grand Duke Sergius' predominating
influence with his nephew, the EN-.
perOr.

K,ep Kansas Day Club Out.

The following from the Clay Center
Times will meet with the appreciation
OF every member Of the Kansas Day
Club which has already drifted too far
from Its old.time position:
"Topsks has sprung the brutal idea
OF killing the Kansas Day Club to
make advertising for the states semi
centennial celebration way of there
In 1911. OF course the killing prop
osition will be denied, but that is
what it will amount to 10 the end.
Just as 1t 10 a fact that the celebra-
ton will be Topeka affair and not
much OF q state affair in the end.
Topeka proposes to merge the next
Kansas Day Club meeting with a
meeting she shall get up 10 the inter
ests Of the celebration. Aud Govern
or Hoch endorses the swallowing,
both personally and officially. it
seems. II be was plain Hoch once
more, no crown upon his forehead, a
psn within his hand. this paper would
say he needed a guardian, and take
the consequences. Does Topeka want
its celebration to be Republican
AFFAIR." Not by . permit Jug fhll.
Yet the Kansas Day Club is rock
ribbed orthodox Republican organic
ton second only to the state central
committee itself Does this Kansas
Day Club owe so much to Topeka that
1t must sacrifice its traditions, objects,
hopes and life to TOpekaP Must 1t
grease its head and pin its cara backP
1t does not owe the town one royal
red cent. The club can follow the
Republican state conventions to
Hutchinson, Wichita or Kansas City,
Mo-, IL need be and lose no prestige.
1t might even die in Topeka honor
ably, but to be turned into cheap
advertising affair after its years Of
glorious independence, that would be
disgraceiul."

Money in Small Farms.

An interesting story illustrating
the possibilities Of small farms comes
from Pennsylvania. 1t tells Of sue

one-half acres. Fifteen years ago the

$500. From the profits Of that little
place he has paid the mortgage, edu-
GATED his family, built . nice home,
and established . profitable garden,
orchard and poultry farm. He has
no other source Of income, and 10 one
Of the Independent men Of his COM
munity.
The little Pennsylvania tract is .
modern truck farm. On the two and
one-halI 90 90 devoted to trucking
there are chicken houses and an
orchard and garden. The crops con-
sist chiefly Of lettuce, celery. onions,
beets and tomatoes. Sales were made
to special customers and the best
prices obtained. The poultry depart
ment furnishes about 500 marketable
chickens every year. The garden
products are sold Of all seasons. The
income is supplemented in the spring
BY sales Of plants Of different varis-
ties. 10 the winter the fruits bring
cash returns.
The Kansas farmer is burdened
with too much land. Smaller farms
and better farming will pay larger
profits. Az President Nichols Of the
Agricultural college points out. Kan
sas IL not raising half % much wheat
per acre IS Il should do. The farmers
have opportunity both BY better crop
production and truck raising to In
crease their profits.
