LONDON. June 24-Of peculiar interest
tc Americans must be the extraordinary
series OF pageants which has just been
held at the sleepy, but historical, little
town of Sherborne, in Dorsetshire. Sher
borne, in England. is the mother town
OF the Sherborne in Massachusetts,,
America and between the two there
has ever been a strong sentimental
bond.
Sleeping though it has been for twelve
hundred years, Sherborne has awak-
-ened to give the most remar}sab bic set
of eleven historical tableau ever seen
IN England, and probably the most &C
curate representation of the past ever
attempted in the world
In Castle Ruins.
The ser for these tableaux is unusu-
ally beautiful, for all the pictures were
presented in the ruins of Sherborne
Castle, one OF the most beautiful frag-
n,ents of early British architecture ex-
tant On the sward outside the castle
the actors congregated, numbering over
three hundred, their entrances and
their exits being made by the gateways
in the castles crumbling walls.
The plan of the pageant was to com
memorate the twelve hundredth ami
versary of the founding of the town by
Bishop EaldheIm, and the pictures took
up the various scenes of the towns MS
tory embracing the coming of the Danes,
the battles with these invaders. the ad-
vent of Alfred the Great. his mission
as the Savior of Britain, the appearance
of William the Conqueror, the visit OF
Sir Walter Raleigh-the whole series
winding UP with an categorical tableau
in which two female figures appeared
one being symbolical of the old Sher-
borne and the other of the American
colony in Massachusetts,.
Schoolmaster's Drama.
There were sixty speaking parts ir
the notable performance. the play OF
which these players were the opponents
having been written by Louis n. Parker
a schoolmaster at Sherborne. The cos
TUNES were all made by the people Of
the village, and were wonderfully accu'
rate In many cases they were the du.
plication of originals, which are among
the most treasured possessions OF the
town, and in every case an attention tt
detail was paid that is seldom seen ever
in metropolitan theater. The audi
ence was seated about the ramparts o.
the castle, numbered many thousand
and came from all parts of the empire.
Many OF the figures, especially thos'
of William the Conoueror, Alfred thu
Great. the Old Bishop, and Sir Waite
Raleigh were admirable, while in thu
groupings the spectacular was SO vel
managed that it was almost Impossible
to believe that a plain schoolmaster hat
acted as stage manager and that I'm
trained villagers were the actors.

THE BATTLE NEAR MUKDEN.

The war cables, though limited III
detail show clearly enough that great
battle is in progress and that the Jap
aneze are winning. First, Oyama COM
PEELED the enemy to change his base;
then Mukden was sheIled; next sue
,cessful thanking movement occurred and
a siege-gun bombardment of the Rus-
sian center followed. Mondays ca
bles said that the japanese had cross
ed the Shake river and occupied Ia
ling. an important position. and that
they were planning to assault the cen
ter. The latter, say the Russians, IS
impregnable, but they said that of the
center at Liaoyang, which the japanese
penetrated with a flying wedge. The
latest news indicates Kuropatkin' s
withdrawal.
The simple truth is that the Russian
in this war has been foredoomed to de-
feat. He is no match for the warrior
from the land of the Samurai- a nu-
Xix is not a soldier because he likes to
japanese peasant is a soldier by in
stinct and taste, as well as by patriot
ism and by eager choice. The Russian
people are pastoral, the Japanese mill
tant; the Russian army or navy officer
is roue, the japanese officer pro-
fessionaI man who takes himself and
his business seriously. There is no
logic in the expectation and there never
was, that the Russian, whatever tenn
porary successes he might have, could
humble the Japanese arms. They are
uncomfortable by the arms of such a
nation as Russia. Indeed. we do not
believe that the armies of any CONT
mental. power could cope with those of
Japan in a fair field, where the prob
mined by the factor of money. We are
having in 1905, and from the japanese,
what Europe had in 1905 from the new
Iy-awakened French. Old military sys-
TENS are tottering under the blows of
Oyama and Nogi and Kuroki as they
did, a century ago, under the blows of
Bonaparte and Messena and Ney.
A decisive battle now should go far
to restore peace at an early date. Rus
STA is tired of the war and the battle
of Mukden. if Kuropatkin is driven
back, ought to mark the end of the
fighting.

costly county act, making various To-

the House concurrent resolution to
send memorial to Congress in favor
of native Hawaiian jurors in certain
cases. They found that a similar reso-
luton was passed by the legislature

the subject. Besides, the measure
would greatly increase the costs Of
courts. Therefore, they recommended
that the resolution be laid on the
table Adopted.
The Public Lands Committee recon-
mended laying on the table a petition
from Maui for new school buildings at

considered with a minority report
which Senator Woods was going to
present.

the Senate bill relating to the duties of
the Registrar of Conveyances, recon-
mending its passage. Laid on the

had been informed by member of the
Senate that in a few days he would in
troduce a bill covering the matter.
