RUSSIAN RETREAT pEMoRAIlzEp

New Chwang, March 11.--According
to reliable information received here,
the Russians, having been driven out
of Mukden and Fushun. and, with the
railroad cut, are retreating in de-
moralized condition to the hill coun-
try towards the northeast.
Detached bodies of Russians are
roughly entrenching with view to
checking the pursuit, but no great
rear-guard action is being fought.
1t will be impossible for the Rus
SLAMS to keep up any sort OF a resist
ance for many days, as there are no
means of provisioning In the rough
country through which they are re-
treating.
1t Is believed that the Russians
may attempt to reach Kirin, 225 miles
northeast of Mukden, through the val
ly, but special Japanese corps
from the Yalu river (probably Gener-
al Kawamura's forces) threatens to
cut them off.
General Kuroki Is advancing north.
west and is forcing the Russians
against General Nogi's army.
The casualties on both sides have
been enormous. The Russians six
teenth army corps was practically an
initiated at Tatchekiao. Eight thou
sand Russians fell at Leukuanpao.

London, March 10-In the opinion
OF English military critics General
Kuropatkin's forces are doomed to
complete disaster Careful study Of
all the avenues of possible escape
and the dispositions of the victorious
Japanese armies leads to the con-
clusion that the best he can hope is
to save mere remnant of his army
after deyoting whole divisions to
slaughter. Much Importance is at
tached to General Kawamuras mys-
FERROUS INDICATED army, which is mo-
mentarily expected to complete the
closing of the net around the defeated
host, in the neighborhood of Kingfan
thus blocking the sole remaining
route to Tie pass through Wankiakou
pass.
The Daily Telegraph in an editorial
article well rejecting the general
opinion here says: 1.-THE greatest
battle in the worlds history promises
to end in the worlds greatest mill
tary disaster. Even If Kuropatkin
succeeds in snatching half his host
from the terrible ring of fire, how
can Russia hope to send out another
army to replenish his ranks? The

The correspondent at Toxic of the

thority that fully 100000 Russians are
enveloped, and he hears that Russia's
central army is almost annihilated.

A Tribute to Weather Conditions

During the early portion OF Febru.

Western States suffered severely with

and there was much general hardship.
While this was the case, throughout
Western Canada, NOW attracting SO

Joining the first. There is left in
them no mark of beauty-not an arch,
not a pillar.
The only other architectural re-
mains that could possibly be contem-
poraneous with the crosses are the
round towers; but, remarkable as they
are in construction and height, and as
ISOLATED in Twenty-Five instances with
crosses, they cannot be called beauti.
ful. The crosses seem as incongruous
with the towers as the Sphinx seems
with the pyramids, and yet there may
be some mysterious connection be-
tween them. The towers may have
been for bells, for refuge, for warn.
Ing. or even for phallic worship in
very early days. but just why so many
beautiful crosses should be beside
them no man surely knows.

can still be seen in all It's beauty and
freshness in the library OF Trinity
college, Dublin, is without doubt the
most beautiful piece of Illuminated
work in the world.
The monks and nuns Of this age
who must have had something to dc
with the crosses, were of a different
order from those who came in witt

King John. They were not clustered

to be reached by a good jumper. He
said he believed the shaft and the rest
Of the cross would be found In the
bed of the river, and some day, when
he had the courage, he meant to dive
down and find out.
The Irish crosses are all massive,
quite thick and vary in height from
eight to thirty feet. Sometimes they
are of one solid piece, sometimes in
three pieces, namely, the base, the
shaft and the crossarms. Besides the
popularity in shape already mention
ed, the special feature Of the Irish
crosses is their sculptured symbolism,
the sides and the under parts of the
arms being used for that purpose as
well as the front and the back. do
not know a sculptured cross without
some symbolism. The ornamental
forms are used to fill up, and do not,
as In the Scotch and British crosses
and recent American adaptations, con

come subservient to them, signs Of a
| decadent art and a lack Of spiritual
ity, just as church windows, devoid Of
thought and symbolism and subject
ed entirely to the sense Of form and
color, are signs Of decadence, the
work of mere artists and not prophets
as well.
The scene symbolically represented
in the center Of the cross Is generally
Christ crucified, arms extended. and
on either side man with a sponge
and another with a spear. On the re

all is that to Clonmacnoise, on the
Shannon, fourteen miles below Ath-
lone, made by jaunting car, by bicycle
or by chartered boat. Two fine crosses
are there, besides $50 carved sepul-
chral slabs, two round towers, eight
Celtic churches, an Anglo-Norman
nunnery and an old border castle.
There is not in Europe" writes Pc
trie, the archaeologist, "a spot where
the spirit would find more matter for
melancholy reflection than among thu
ancient ruins of Clonmacnoise. Its
ruined buildings call forth national as
sociations and ideas. They remind us
of the arts and literature, the piety
and humanity which distinguished
their time, and are the work of peo-
pie who in a dark age marched among
the foremost on the road to life and

The native mind was dwarfed and
| the Celtic fire in poetry and art ex-
tinguished by the English invasion
under Henry II and John, pensioned
ecclesiastics lending their assistance
to the politicians in the stultifying in
| fiuence. After centuries OF smolder.
ing the fire seems to have started up
again. A renaissance in literature and
art has begun in Ireland. Here in
America, whittier one of their saints
is said to have sailed more than q
millennium ago, the Celts are already
a great force in the thought Of the
day. There is something heroic in
them, or their ancestors could not
have done what they did. The Celtic
crosses are standing witnesses of
| their genius and character.

OF the high crosses of Ireland little
Is known by the public IN general,
writes the Rev. George S. Pine. For
myself, I thought OF them only as
relics Of the age that had gone, and
expected to look upon them as on so
many mummies, or on the skeleton
of a great mastodon, curious things
having no special connection with me,
my race or my tastes.
"Three crosses?" questioned to
myself, as l thought of the Monster
boice, and turned my wheel from the

Three hours did not suffice to salts

ton have gone on unchecked ev9
since, and imagination still plays
about them in dreams.
The high crosses of Ireland are the
product of period as different from
this as nomadic life of the time of
Abraham is different from the life to-
day.
The people of the time were pas

Most headaches can be traced to some

The important thing is to get rid of the
diseased condition of the blood that

that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly. What is that remedyr The
experience of Miss Ellen McKenna fur
nishes the answer. She says:
"For more than seven years was

dizziness. My stomach was disordered.

sit still any length of time. Dizziness
interrupted my work greatly. At first
the attacks were not SO severe, but they

The purpose Of the Irish crosses is
not very plain. They were not sep

burial places, though some of them
are dedicatory or commemorative of
Irish kings and Irish saints. such as
St Patrick and st. COLUMBIA. There
are, however, many sepulchral slabs,

Margaret Stokes is the greatest au-
