KUROP PATK|N TALKS
Says Nothing About His Re-
call to Russia.
AN ECHO OF MUKDEN
DEFERRED TO THE WISHES AND
ADVICE OF GENERALS.
Japanese Civil Administration on
Liao Tung Peninsula-Spies
Arrested.

GUNSHU PASS, May 1O.-A correspond
ent of the Associated Press today inter-
viewed Gen. kuropatkin, who said nothing
about the reports that he was returning to
Russia. The former commander-in- chief
Of the Russian forces in Manchuria believes
the japanese, having again brought all
their units up to full strength and having
added to them considerable reinforcements,
are ready to assume the offensive. The
general expressed regret at the fact that
Mukden was not evacuated before March
Z, as he desired. He said he deferred SO
doing on the advice of his generals who
insisted upon holding the place. Even as
II was, kuropatkin's orders to get the
transport away in the rear, were not exc
cuted promptly, and when the final order
was given to retreat the roads assigned to
the various divisions were not taken which
caused much confusion. The Japanese
could not have driven a wedge across the
Hun river east of Mukden at the critical
moment, kuropatkin added, had the troops
allotted to guard that portion of the lire
not taken up the wrong positions. He con-
cluded with saying: "A Russian victory Is
absolutely necessary. Russia cannot make
a shameful peace" 8

to himself without difficulty the exclamations of
the persons about him. though the remarks were
given in German, French, Scottish dialect and
Indian He understood the language of all ami
mails well.
One day, when living in India, he described
to his father plot to murder neighbor, which
he perceived distinctly, though the plotters were
miles away. The plot was frustrated and the
ruffians captured solely on his Information.
At ten years of age he was taken to England
He astounded those on board the steamer by his
strange knowledge. For instance, he discerned
the moons of the planet Jupiter, and then in the
evening an Armenian commercial man fell over
board. Though it was in darkness, the boy
guided the ships boat to the man in the water,
where Karl could see him distinctly mile away.
This man, Paul Constantine, conceived an ex-
travagant affection for Karl. The young feleg-
n0nfiSt was sent to school, where he puzzled the
teacher with his psychic feats
Grown to young manhood, Grier one night felt
a desire to recall Maggie Hutchinson, girl he

which he never had seen, and to the visitor S
astonshment translated the shrieks of a cat in
the courtyard. Upon HooPers suggestion he
again sought to find Maggie HUTCHINSON, and
New-York. The next evening he was mentally
transported to New-York again. He awoke with
an exclamation about the villainy of dramatic
agent named Steindal.
Karl explained that Constantine and Steindal
in New-York decided to make Maggie Hutchin-
offer to go a concert tour, Constantine
evidently having Interior motive. So intent
was Karl in listening to the plot that he aroused
in the Armenian S mind vivid remembrance of
the time he was rescued from the sea, and
Constantine fell over the table shrieking of
sharks
Kari received a telegram from his mother ask
ing him to meet the Hutchnsons upon their
arrival in London. After astonishing the hotel
clerk with feiegn0Dztc manifestations, Karl
met the voyagers: Maggie related conver-
sation between Steindal and Constantine which
she teleenomtcakiy overheard coincidentally with
Karl's experience.

ding tears. lie knew MS SON was miles
ahead of either of them, and here was
the teacher proving him "a slob.''
Nothing but blots and zeroes," said
Miss Reid briefly.
Crowley shook his head despondent1y.
"He absolutely refuses to write them
over at home" said Miss Reid.
Crowley blushed little.
Hell be in this room until he's old
enough to vote, if he doesn't get to work
and do something" she went on. Hes
smart too; but-wel1, you can see for
yourself, Mr.. Crowley, how he compares
with the others. Something must be
done, and it's up to you to do it. He's a
nice little fellow in many ways-polite,
accommodating and all that-but just
look at his shoes! | know you'd never
let him come to school with his shoes
unblacked and his hair looking as if it had
never been combed."
Crowley thought guiltily of his refusal
to allow Jamsey to use the backing, ex-
cept on Sunday
"You see," said Miss Reid, ''he's SIM
ply getting away from your wife. Boys
at his age need a fathers strong hand.
Indeed, miss, he'll feel the weight of
that same strong hand when | get hold
of him, | promise you that"
'tNo, I wouldn't whip him just yet;
encourage him little. If he was neater,
he'd be one of the handsomest boys in
the ROOM
Crowley appeared conscious. Jamsey
was said to resemble him.
81 know Mrs. Crowley has too much
to do to look after such great big boy
and to follow him UP to see that he at
tends to himself, so you must take
hand"
'Sure, miss, I'd like to know how l
can when I'm at work? We can't all be
like you, that can make hundred chill
dren behave like angels whether you have
an eye on them or no. It's living Won
der you are, no less!"
Just try and see what wonders you
can do" said Miss Reid, laughing.
Now, when | send home papers like
this, for instance, want you to see that
James copies it neatly; no blots, mind.
When he has done that three or four
times, he'll be careful not to have any
to copy. And about his shoes and hair
that, if you'll try to remember when you
come home to ask about it. Don't whip
him in week or SO, then I'll let you
know whether he needs it or not He's
Irish all over, bright as dollar, and
witty too. That's one reason / don't
like him to get behind. 1t gives people a
chance to say things about us"
They're only too anxious" said he.
"Good-by. Come again when you
have day off.
THAT | will, miss, and thank you
kindly for taking SO much trouble with
Jamsey. He thinks the world of you,
and you deserve it. Good-day to you"
Well" said the principal quizzingly
show did you and Mr.. Crowley get
along?"
Miss Reid's eyes twinkled. II think
he will buy the ink and let James use
the shoe-blacking now," she said.

U
sired at the Rivers school contained a
hint to the effect that retribution awaited
him in the shape of a judge and fine if
any regrets were sent. So after several
explosions of temper which made timid
Mrs. Crowley go to neighbor's for safety,
and which precipitated Jamsey into the
back yard Crowley, like Shakespeare's
school-boy, had gone most unwilhngly to
school
"She'1l put none of her 'comether' on
mep' he announced. "I'l1 make her
know her place"
School was in session when he arrived
Somehow, as he neared the door, his
courage seemed to be oozing out, and
with mental resolution to break every
bone in Jamsey's body for putting this
on him, he knocked.
"Mr. Crowley, is it? Oh, just come in
and sit down for few minutes until
start the children to work." said the
brisk young woman who opened the door
Firmly holding the hat which she had
offered to take, he sat down awkwardly,
seeing nothing but mass of faces. When
his vision cleared, he noticed Johnnie Rice,
the most mischievous boy in the neigh
borhood, looking neither to the right nor
the left, after friendly grin, but studying
as furiously as if his life depended on it.
Crowley stole look at the teacher to see
what manner of woman it was that could
reduce such a raging torment of a boy
to a condition of absolute submission. A
furtive shake of the hand attracted his
attention to George Burke, but a
George Burke that he almost failed to
recognize, SO clean and demure was he.
He did some thinking during the ten
minutes he sat there waiting. Where
were the flying books, the gurn-chewing,
the talking, the pandemoniurn set loose,
of his imagination? How one woman,
and little woman at that, could bring
| boys who were terrors in the neighbor-
hood to be such models of department
was beyond him.
I'm ready now, Mr.. Crowley, if you
are in hurry" said Miss Reid.
'I'm in no hurry now," said Crowley.
81 may as well make day of it, since
I've lost my morning anyway"
I'm so sorry you had to come; but
l think it will pay you in the end. Would
you like to stay and hear lesson or two?"
II would indeed, if 1 wouldn't be in
the way"
So he heard common denominators -
and "subtrahends and nuInerators
and dividends and divisors" until he
was dizzy and sympathized with Jamsey
for finding school hard, until he heard
George Burke commended for his neat
paper and Johnnie Rice praised for doing
the hardest example in the lesson, when
he made up his mind that what they
could do Jamsey could do, and would do,
if he had to throttle him to make him.
When he intinated that it was time
for him to be going, she accompanied
him into the hall, with several collections
of papers in her hand. She held out to
him Jamsey's work, and then, as a con-
trast-oh. the humiliation of it!-the
neatly written papers of Johnnie Rice
and George Burke He felt like she'd
