GREATEST BATTLE.

Tokyo, Feb 20.-That the great
est battle of the war is about to be
fought in Manchuria is confident
ly expected by mem befs of the ia
panese general staff. The advices
from Marshal Oyama for the past
three days have indicated that the
Russians are massing troops on
both his TANKS, with the evident
intention of beginning an advance
in very short time. The Japa-
nese commander reports a mum Der
of small fights which he believes
to be in the nature of feints to try
the strength of his position.
Without an exception the Rms
SLAMS have found him prepared,
and have been driven back with
loss. The disposition of Marshal
Oyama's army is such that he can
foil any possible attempt at Rus
sian aggressi n and take advant-
age of any weakness which may
develop in the Russian line, The
Japanese engineers have been tu-
sy during the long period of mac
ton and every possible means 10
facilitate the movement Eof troops
from one part of the long line TO
the other has been provided.

womanhood, she marries, not as
formerly, because the match is suit.
able, because her parents desire
it, because it is her allotted portion,
but from mutual inclination on her
part and his, or not at all.
Her mother finds it hard to see
life as the daughter does. The old.
fashioned mother is even averse to
the comfortable garments affected
by the woman of today. The cor,
setless, housekeeping, breezy
maid "gets on her nerves."

But the mother who tries to per-

pointed in results if she succeeds.
And, if she fails, she will have lost
her daughters allegiance.
If, on the other hand, she gener-

TO DRAIN CRIPPLE
CREEK DISTRICT
(Scripps News Association.)

(ScrlppS news ASSOc1at1on.)
DENVER, Col, Oct. 80. - The
serious problem of draining the
Cripple Creek mining district is to
be solved by the construction OF
a big drainage tunnel For some
time the mines in the Cripple Creek
district have been hampered by the
large amount of water which flowed
into the lower workings of the
various mines.
D. w. Brunton, the engineer, en-
ployed by the mine owners, report
ed in favor of tunnel, which would
drain the district to depth of over
5000 feet and would permit the
marketing of enormous bodies of
low grade ores from great depth.
During the year 1904, the Cripple
Creek district produced $139, 0O0,OO0
in gold.

ALPHONSO OFF
FOR GERMANY
(Scripps News Association.)

MADRID, Oct. 30.--King AL
phonso, accompanied by Premier
General Monterey Rios and a large
suite, started today on long ar
ranged for visit to Germany. Moth
ing definite is known concerning
the object of the visit, but as it
follows so closely after the visit of
President Loubet to Spain, the
kings visit is believed to be more
in the nature of a diplomatic mis-
sion than mere friendly visit. The
king will remain in Berlin from
November to November ~, and
an elaborate program for his en-,
tertainment has been prepared, in
GLIDING festivities at the court, a
military review and a hunt.
