Hong Kong, May 1l.-Admiral To-
COS whereabouts Is not. accurately
known except to the highest officials In
Toxic. He hns becn reported at var
ions points from the pescadores to
Susebo. where he is said to be ut pres
ert. The Japanese admiral Is not
likely to leave his base. He will have
every advantage In lighting between
Formosa and Japan. The Riuklu ISL
ands that form considerable stretch
In the northeast Of Eormosa will prove
dangerous trap for the Russians.
The navigation there is peculiar, ow-
Ing to the many deceptive currents.
There is every chance that the Rus
SLAMS will not be able to get pilots
who arc thoroughly acquainted with
the channels and Togo will endenvor
to drive some Of the Russian ships on
the islands.
Meanwhile Rojestvensky Is offering
large sums to pilots who know the
waters around the Islands. His trans
ports are d1scharging their cargoes In
to smaller vessels, which will follow
the fleet. When the Russians leave
the French ndo-Chtnn coast they VIII
enter hostile seas. They will find that
the Japanese have strongly fortified
and amply provisioned the Pescadores
fer two years. The strategic points OH
the islands are defended by heavy
guns and the forces in garrison num-
ber $500.

Americas First Newsp sPer.

1T is said that the first newspaper
was published i'm this country at Bos-
ton in 1890, and that Harris was the
name of the venturesome pioneer who
launched the enterprise. Somebody
has resurrected and started OH the
rounds of the press the fOreword winch
heralded this first newspaper and 1t
makes very interesting reading after
more than two centuries have passed.
In some things America is wholly
different land than it was in 1890. but
the aims and purposes of its best news
papers are those that animated Editor
Harris. This is what he proposed to
do:
It is designed that the country shall
be furnished once month Tor If any
glut Of occurrences happen ofteneD
with an account Of such things as have
arrived unto our notice.
In order hereunto the publisher will
take what pains he can to obtain Il
faithful relation of all such things:
and will particularly make himself be-
holden TO such persons in Boston whom
he knows to have been for their own
use the diligent observers of such mat
tiers.
That which is herein proposed is first
that memorable occurrences of divine
providence may not be neglected nor
forgotten as they too often. are. Sec
ondly, that people everywhere may
4
public affairs, both abroad and at
home, TO which may not only direct
their thoughts at all times, but at some
times also to assist their business and
negotiations.
Thirdly, that something may be done
towards the curing. or at least the
charming of that split of lying, which
prevails among us. wherefore nothing
shall be entered. but what we have
reason 10 believe to be true, repairing
to the best fountain for our infOrma-
ton. And when there appears any
material mistake in anything that is
objected it shall be corrected in the
next.
MOreover.~the publisher of these oc-
curreuces is willing to engage that

Perhaps it might help to decrease
the cases Of pneumonia in our cold
country IL the leading ladies of New
England would say that during the
winter season men might omit the GUS
toinary lifting Of their hats in the
street when bowling to them. The
Boston Transcript relates that in a
town in Sweden the respectful doffins
OF the hat has been declared unneces-
sary through the winter season by
prominent Ia,lies-but there gentle
man will insist on having his hat in his
hand during any conversation with a
lady. The Swedish ladies at all events
believe that they have introduced am
important health measure into social
life. No doubt most men who find
themselves called upon to raise their

that the example of the swedish ladies
might be followed by the fair sex in
