FOR JUNIOR DIsHWAsHERs.

COZ all dull, blind, sordid drudgery, the duest, the
" blindest, the most sordid is dishwashing," This
is what says, and undoubtedly every Junior
who groans the task of washing the dishes three
times day, will feel intense gratitude who
only understands the matter but has the courage
say what he thinks.
But after he said that, Professor Edward Howard
Griggs said something MORE and that tmore" is
something Junior ishwashers should realize and
ber One trouble with dshwashn is that the dishwasher
knows that she sets the last dish away in the cup
board it only matter of four hours when they will all
be out again and have to be washed all over and
still that this is the routine three times day for the
three hundred and sixty-fve days in the year.
Yet Professor Griggs says that the woman girl
who nevertheless does that blind dead work Loyalty and
faithfully without protesting, is gaining character and
culture out of its very deafness and blindness because
character and culture but patience fidelity quiet
wisdom and loyalty to trust.
That puts poetry and philosophy both into the drudg
cry Of every day life and if Junior dshwashers will only
remember it while spashng around in the dishpan they
will be surprised to how easily the work goes how
light the task may seem, after all. ..~-..

THE MOON.

AS the moon is slowly rocking,
Slowly rocking in the sky,
It sees the little silver stars, ~--
AS they 60 floating by.
It sees the wondrous cities,
That lie far, far below. ...
It sees the green grass and the flowers,
That day and night do grow.

Who lie sleeping in their beds,
It peeps in at the windows,
And guards above their heads.

Slowly rocking in the sky,
It sees the earth below it,

Toxic sticks to Its story-What Russian
Oficials Say.

London, May 31.-The Daily Nails
Toxic correspondent, cabling under
date of May 30, says: when the Kniaz
Souvaroff was sunk Admiral Rojest-
vensky was transferred TO another YES
sci, but was captured off Fumi. Ad-
mirals NebOgatoff and Noelkersam also
are prisoners"
At ST. Petersburg dispatch says that
Admiral Durnovo has received a wire
from his son, commander Of the torpe-
do boat destroyer Bunny, declaring that
Rojestvensky was washed off the Sou
varoff when she went down, and that
the Bunny saved him. Another st. Pc
tersburg dispatch says the Bunny ar
rived at Vladivostok with the admiral
on board. The AlmaZ did not take the
admiral 10 VladivOstOk, it seems,
which contradicts the alleged telegram
received by Nine. Rojestvensky. Vladi-
vostok dispatches give long interviews
with the officers of the AlmaZ, but no
word of the admiral being on board.
Neither is there word about the
admiral in an official dispatch from
Linevitch giving to- the ear the news
received by him from Nladivostok.

ADMIRAL roGo's CHARACTERISTIC
Always Fights, Never Reports De-
tails Yet-submarines?

Toxic, May 31.-The proverb that
Admiral Togo always fights and sell
dom reports is proving true in the
case of his greatest battle. From the
briefest and most fragmentary reports
coming to Toxic ii is impossible TO
gain an approximate conception or pic
ture of the desperate and decisive com
bat The navy department, after an
nouncing the bare results, has lapsed
into silence again. 1t meets inquirers
with the statement that the depart
ment is not interested in the publica-
ton of news. but is concerned only in
securing victory for Japan.
Admiral Togo appears to have
planned and laid a complete trap which
fitted Admiral Rojestvenskys action,
and the japanese out-manoeuvered,
out-fOught and out-shot the Russians,
fearlessly taking their lightest cruisers
against the heavy Russian armor-clad
battleships, and smothering them with
guntire. Admiral Togo had waited for
weeks in the vicinity Of the Tsu isl

vensky encountered Admiral Togo

fight 10 the northeastward Saturday
afternoon. There was a series OF des-
Perate and successful torpedo attacks
Saturday night, and resumption OF
the battle on Sunday, Togo pressing

Tremendous interest attaches TO the
question whether the japanese used
submarine vessels. The navy depart
ment is silent on this point, but it is
confidently believed that submarines
were effectively used for the first time
in history. Theoretically the sea was
too rough for the employment of sub
marines Saturday, but the Japanese
sailors welcome desperate chances. 1t is
believed that torpedo boats and de
stroyers scored heavily Saturday night

val experts there are suggesting that
the submarine is the only war machine
that could account for the defeat of the
Russians.

This action was taken after a pro-

JURY CONDONES

Has Stirred the Citizens OF

Savanna, ILL.,, May 29.-After BRIEF

coroner's jury brought In a verdict de
claring Boutwell, Pulford came TO his
death from a gunshot wound by his
own hand. while. as we believe, in
state of melancholia collapse"
DR.. G.. w. Johnson, brother-in-law OF
the dead man, made the suggestion
which the jury acted upon in declar-
ing that Pudford was practically ire
sponsible for the act. Charity for the
suicide was uppermost in tie minds
of most of the jury, and they sought
to shield him by inserting the words
mental collapse"
Thus closes the dual tragedy which
for four days has stirred this COM
munity. More and more does the con-
viction grow that the suicide of Both
well Pulford was his confession of the
murder of Daniel s. Berry.
