Toxic. june Is. Tho following report
has been received from the Manchurian
armies: a. SIS
''In the Wsiyuanpaomen district at 8
O'Clock on the morning, of June IS, 800 of
the enemy's cavalry advanced against
Kuyushu, but were repulsed. In the
Chamotu district our advanced forces,
after driving out the enemy stationed at
Sumiencheng, occupied that village. In
the Tasiamotun district our detachment,
after dislodging the enemy's cavalry at
Souchatzu, miles west of Sumienoheng,
occupied that village.
SIN the Kangplu district at 1 O'Clock
on the morning of June 10 our center
column, after routing the enemy's cavalry
outposts at Tienchiawopeng, 16 miles
northeast of Kangping, and continuing a
vigorous pursuit, attacked the enemy's
position at the southern end OF !.iao Fang
Wcpsng, aud to the eastward between a
and 8. 80 O'Clock and at O'Clock we cor1-
pietely occupied Liao Yang Wopeng.
"Our right column, after driving the
enemy's cavalry before it, occupied Lo-
chang Pou, 0 miles east Of Liao Yang
Wopeng. This column again shelled the
enemy's cavalry, retreating to the north
ward, inflicting heavy injury. The enemy
was finally thrown into great confusion.
"The left column poured fierce fire
upon 1000 Of the enemy's cavalry, re-
treating to the northward of Liao Yang
Wopeng and inflicting heavy damage.
according to prisoners, 5000 cavalry,
with twenty guns, forming part of Gen.
Mistchenko's army, occupied Liao Yang
WOpeng. The main force retreated
northward and part of it to the north
eastward and northwestward in disorder.
There are evidences that the enemy was
panic stricken aud utterly confused.
Abandoned provisions and clothing indi-
in carrying off supplies. In retreating
the enemy firod q house south Of Liao
Yang Wopeng, and it is presumed that
they intended to incinerate their dead.
sour casualties were 80 killed and 1856
wounded. The number of the enemy's
casualties is not certain. His dead left
in front of the center column mum bered
80, and therefore the total Russian losses
in all directions seems to be great"
Big Engagement Imminent
st. Petersburg, June 1S.-Although the
way has thus far been smoothed for q
peace conference, the operations in Man
churia appear to be in full march toward
q big engagement, the Japanese having
pushed forward as far as Liaoyangohang-
keng (Liaowopeng, west of the Liao
river, 8S miles north of Fakumen). The
Japanese have strong forces here, as we'll
as in the rear of Lient. Gen. Linevitch's
advance detachments, near Chentufu,
and even threaten the flank of the forti-
fed positions at Lipingai, where Gen.
Linevitch intended to offer battle, but
from which he pushed far to the south
ward during the months Of inactivity on
the part of the Japanese army
1t is not known here whether Gen.
Linevitch will retire slowly on these po-
sitions, or whether, as be intimated re-
Gently in an intiview, he intended to meet
the Japanese flanking operations to the
westward by counter offensive move
ment.

Still Standing Pat

An force that sometimes exercises mysterious
control over this glorious government of the people has
forced Teddy and Taft reverse themselves and admit
that it is poor business to buy cheap.
The tears of the stand patters have given place to
Smiles and the country is saved But the fetish of proec
ton had miraculously escape from humiliation
Had the government of the United States fatty refused
to be held up by its ariffattened manufacturers it
would have set most pencous example to its citizens
Hat Uncle Sam himself headed revolt against the
Dgley schedules and deed the idols of protection how
could the people have been expected longer to
worship and deposit their offerings at the idols feet for
the enrichment of the cunning priests Of the tempe
Not only might two ships for the Panama commission
have been brought abroad because they be for half
what they cost at home That in itself would have been
enough to set the pencous example to ctzens but that
is not ALL
Steel rails which would cost $33 ton here could have
been bought abroad for $2O and-mnd you-they are all
made by the American company
And-more woe!-steel dumping cars wheelbarrows
and other utensils and supplies required by the canal
mission could have been bought abroad, when Of
American make 80 to 40 per cent cheaper than here.
These facts bound to leak out and set the people
to wondering why what is good buying in the building of
the big canal not good buying in everybods everyday
business
So the example Uncle Sam would have set would have
been perncous and disturbing Anything which sets the
plain people thinking about the high tariff is dangerous
to that sacred institution
But the canal commission is not alone in treading
dangerous ground Agents of the government have long
been defyng the dogmas and creeds of protection Only
the other day Rob j. Wynne consul general to London
turned up at Washington clad in suit of brown.
'These English-cost me $780, he explained with
pride That suit would have cost him $40 in this country
With canal commission and consular agents united in
open dsrespect for protection idols, could the
people have been expected to continue to bndy worip
and deposit their offerings?
The of the stand patters were indeed too deep
to be borne long.

A Family Quarrel

For family quarres the bterest of all
nua1res.
For instance.
Norwegian Swede, Dane-these three-are, and of
right ought to be- great family They have common
historic past They have shared sacrifices and glory.
They speak kindred tongues Why should they quarrel to
the point of separation
Did not the commonwea or the fear Of common danger
bind them7 Or the possibilities of great Scandinavian
union? 1t appears not.
On the contrary
The genius acking. Least of all is there any dis
position to fight for union.
And the Norwegian flag is hosted and saluted from
twenty-on guns. Succession from Sweden is accom-
pshed Norway is independent nation.
The family quarrel is ancient one, caused by incom-
patability of temper.
The dual monarchy born of the Napoeonic era but
the peoples became cemened The Morse has been
asking for separate consular and diplomatic service
That was only for the family lighting Neither
member Of the household would give in. Bckerng and
backbiting led to open enforcement

NEW YORK, June 13.-Dear Cous-
in: Sometimes Affections are bless
ings in disguise. l have an afiliction.
It's mighty little of blessing to me,
but it may do you some good.
My afiliction is that my hair is
coming out. 1t began almost as soon
as l struck New York, and has been
falling ever since. A month ago 1
went to the best hair specialist
could find in New York. And his
treatment is beginning to take effect.
My hair has stopped falling, and a
little fuzz is appearing close to my
scalp. And the beauty of the whole
thing is that he told me what to do
and l can treat my own scalp without
cost.
ITS bad business for me to tell
YOU" he said, for if everyone knew
Ia have to go to the poorhouse, but
I'll tell you.
People have discovered that to
stimulate the scalp and stop hair
from falling there is nothing better
| than massage, but they have not yet
found out that they can do it for
themselves. But they can If they are
patient and regular in their methods.
1.-TWO movements, which will give
you, are the best 1 know for making
the scalp healthy and keeping it SO.
But you must follow my directions
Most people are too lazy to take time
to go through the treatment in the
right way.
''Take three minutes FOR each move
ment every morning. If you do that
you will find the treatment effective.
If you don't you might as well let 1t
quite alone.
For the first movement spread out
your fingers, pressing with the balls
of the fingers on the scalp Fright

fingers slowly together, pressing hard

three minutes taking this movement,
going all over the scalp.
The second govement consists of
another method of firmly pinching
the scalp. Balance the hand by rest
ing the balls of the fingers on the
head. Hold the fingers firmly pressed
against the scalp and then push hard
on the scalp with the thick of the
thumb, pushing toward the hard
