RUSSIAN OFFICERS PROTEST.
Acting as Police Shuts Them Out Of
Social Functions.

London, June pa dispatch from
st. Petersburg to the Reuter- Tele-
gram company says that several hun.
dred officers held a meeting June Is
at Krasnoye Selo, sixteen miles from
st. Petersburg, to discuss the situa.
ton created by recent events and to
protest against their constant en-
ployment in the role of police. Gen.
eral Rehblnger, commanding the
guard, ordered the meeting to dis.
perse on the ground that it was IL.
legal. Officers stepped forward and
declared that they were all faithful
subjects of the Car. but could not re-
main in the position of military po-
icemen. 1t was position, they said,
which completely isolated them from
society, towards which they practi-
cally sustained the role of butchers.
General Rehbinger still insisted that
the meeting dispense, but promised
them a speedy opportunity to meet
legally.

st. Petersburg, June III. - General
Linevitch, under date Of June II, tele-
graphed to the emperor as follows
From 2 a. m. until M, June
1G, our force engaged in the neigh
borhood Of Liaoyangwoeng, Japan
ese force consisting Of infantry and
two batteries Of artillery which ap-
preached from the south to about five
miles Of Liaoyangwopeng. Our de-
tachment southwark checked the Of
fensive movement, and the Japanese
retired.
AT about 8 a. m. turning move
ment on the left flank executed by a
battalion Of Japanese infantry and
three squadrons Of cavalry was also
reported. Our right flank was turned
by regiment of infantry, several
squadrons Of cavalry and some artil-
lery. The commander Of our detach-
ment consequently was forced to
evacuate Liaoyangwopeng and a
Japanese force entered Liaoyangwo-
peng with a division Of infantry, thirty
squadrons Of cavalry and four bat
teries Of artillery. Three Japanese
squadrons occupied Simiaochen, but
our detachment forced them to evacu-
ate the place.
AT dawn today a company Of Jap
anese infantry assumed the offensive
east of the railway, but we're dislodg-
ed by detachment of volunteer
sharpshooters.
According to reports from Korea,
the enemy is advancing In the direc.
ton of Kongchen and Munsan."

ILL LUCK IN MAY WEDDINGS.
Popular Superstition Has Descended
From tho Romans.

From the Romans.
May weddings are supposed by
many persons to be unlucky. It Is a
heritage from the ancient Romans. A
May bride, says Ovid, Is short-lived,
his explanation being that the month
included the celebration Of the Lee
muria in honor Of the dead. Apart
from any evil omen, such time Of
mourning would interfere with the
bathing and toilet arrangements that
were proper preliminaries to wed.
dings. Plutarch suggests that as
April was the month Of Venus, and
June that OF Juno, to select May was
to slight those nuptial goddesses; or
that June, as the month Of the young
(juniores), was preferable TO May, the
month Of the old (majores). Ovid's
"Mense malas maio nubere vulgis att
(there is popular saying that wick.
ed women wed in May was inscribed
on the gate of Holyrood when Mary
queen Of Scots married Boutwell, In
May, 1867. What followed strength.
ened Scottish belief in Mary's lin.
luckiness.

EFFORTS STILL CONTINUE.
Another Attempt 10 Fad the Chicago
Strike viii be Made.

Chicago. June 81. = Another effort
is to be made by the teamsters to
bring about settlement of their
strike. AT meeting of the teamsters
joint council called tonight to con.
slider the best method of bringing
about the termination of the trouble
1t was decided to appoint a commit.
tee which is to confer with the exc.
cutive committee of the International
Brotherhood of Transfers and decide
upon terms to be offered to the EN-.
ployers The meeting between these
two committees will be held tomor.
row or Wednesday. President Shea
of the Transfers Union declared to.
night that he would not interfere In
any manner with the work of either
OF the committees and If they bring
about settlement of the strike it will
be binding upon the transfers.
The employers have repeatedly de.
clared that they will hold no more
conferences with the teamsters unless
the men appearing in the conference
in behalf of the teamsters have full
power to settle the strike. They have
also declared that there can be no set.
Element unless the unions are prepar.
ed to accept the terms of the Employ
ers' association. The situation is
rapidly improving from the stand
point of the employers and they have
reached almost normal conditions In
making deliveries of goods.

The American Heart.

The American Heart.
We have heard much about the
American stomach and the American
nerves, but we are just awakening to
discovery that there is being rapidly
developed form Of heart disease
which, If not peculiar to America, may
at least be said to be more prevalent
In this country than In any other part
Of the world The heart-weakness re.
sulting from the use of tobacco and
alcohol and from a sedentary life on
the one hand, and extremely violent
exertion on the other hand, is no long
er a rare condition, but has come to
be one of the most common affections
with which the physician has to deal.
A large proportion of the men reject
ed in the army examinations are re-
fused on account Of heart weakness.
A large proportion Of the public men
who die suddenly die as a result OF
the failure Of the heart. The same
may be said also Of many of the
cases in which the cause Of death is
reported to be pneumonia, typhoid fe.
yer and other affections in which spe.
cial strain is brought to bear upon the
heart, and in which the failure Of the
organ to meet the emergency is one OF
the most common causes Of death. The
cigar, the cigarette and the pipe are
probably the most common cause of
this growing frequency of cardiac af-
fections; but the neglect Of physical
exercise, overeating, the use Of condi-
ments and excuses Of all sorts are
also to large degree responsible for
the rapid Incl ease Of this grave NAL
ady.

CHANGED MEANING or WORD.
Nerve No Longer Has Exclusively
Medical Significance.

Sir Frederick Treves, the celebrat-
ed English surgeon, asserted that the
Japanese have no nervous system"
and that nerves." as western ma
tons know the term, is untranslatable
in Japan. This invites a reference to
the significant history Of the words
nerve" and nervous" A nerve"
by derivation from Greek and Latin
and by earlier English use, Is really
sinew. When Pope speaks Of "nerv-
GUS arms" he means exactly the
"brawny arms" Of the village black
smith; and this sense survives meta
phorically in nervous style Of writ
Ing" which is very different from a
"neurotic' one. Shakespeare used
"nervy" in the same sense. But now
that nerves" no longer mean sinews,
nervous" in the common use has al
most reversed its old meaning. In
DR.. Jolsnson's time nervous" In the
modern sense was still only medical
can't" Now men Of nerve" are very
different from men Of nerves"

Fashion and consumptlon.

In all American cities and most Of
the larger towns promiscuous expec-
.toration is prohibited. There are or
dinances and rules against splitting In
public conveyances, on the floors Of
assembly halls and on the sidewalks.
OF necessity, however, this cannot be
prevented in the cutters and on the
pavements.
BY educating the tuberculosis pa
tent himself in regard to his duty to
his fellow citizen much more can be
done. A careful consumptive is a
good citizen; careless consumptive
is an enemy to society and the state.
Even with the civil and self-imposed
precautions, the dust of the highway
and crossings is teeming with various
disease germs. 1t is practically i'm
possible to eliminate these beds Of
filth. In the cleanest streets such COL
onies of germs are present.
The use Of long, dragging skirts on
the average highway is the height Of
folly. 1t is worse. It Is absolutely
dangerous. The sweeping cloth picks
up dust and dampened particles car
Arying tubercular germs. They are
thus transplanted into the very house
hold. In this simply yet sadly effec-
tive way, the children, SO carefully
guarded, are exposed to the dreaded
plague. The entire family, satisfied
with their fancied security, are
stunned when tuberculosis claims one
of their loved ones.
It may not strike the family circles.
The household servants may be af-
fected. Many of the deaths Of domes-
tics have their explanation. The mis-.
tress, after a shopping tour, leaves
her mud-bordered skirt for the maid
10 clean. In the cloud Of dust arising
from the brush the fatal bacillus
turks. The girl. already weakened
from too long hours indoors, sue
cnmbs. A few weeks later she is
forced to stop work and waste away
IL hopeless dependence on her over
burdened family or at public expense.
Another girl ID easiy obtained and
he careless mistress never suspects
any connection between her foolish
fashion and the doomed rd0mestic's
nd fate.
Irxpectoration on the streets can
aevef be stopped. The streets cannot
" ksps clean But this can be done

Meeting Is Held by French Premier
And German Ambassador
DEFINITION IS LAID DOWN.
Details Are Being Arranged and off,
ciaIs Expect to Announce Plans For
a Conference in the Course Of Four
or Five Days.

Paris, June 81. - An international
conference for the consideration Of
affairs of Morocco is now practically
assured as the result of the CONVEX.
sation between Premier Rouvier and
Prince Radolin, the German ambassa-
dor, and attention Is now directed to
defining the scope Of the conference.
Details are being rapidly arranged,
and the officials expect to be able to
announce the plans for the confer
ence in the course of four or five
days.
This result, after the severe strain
which tested the diplomatic resources
of both governments, has the effect of
relieving the tension, the officials of
the foreign Office and the diplomats
of the German embassy agreeing that
an amicable adjustment is near at
hand.
Although the acceptance of the con-
ference gives certain measure of
success to German diplomacy, yet M.
Rouvier energies from the contro-
versy with the advantage of having
brought Germany to exactly define
the scope Of the conference and so
to rid it of the objection of being a
menace to French interests.
Although the basis of the confer.
ence has not been settled, it is under
stood that the two governments sub
stantially agree on some of the main
features involved Germany has sus-
pected that France had designs on the
sovereignty of Morocco, but the me-
gotiations disclosed that France had
not questioned this sovereignty.
Similarly, it was disclosed that France
had not designed to interrupt the
present territorial or political status
quo of Morocco. This appears to have
been one of Germanys chief appre-
tensions, as any change in Moroccos
status quo might involve ultimate
French protectorate similar to that
over Tunis.
With both governments favorable
to the sovereignty of Morocco and to
her territorial and political status quo
1t remains for the conference to adj
just the equality of commercial rights,
as Germany desires this assurance
from an international agreement.
Therefore, the conference is not like
ly to consider changes in the political
status of Morocco, but rather inter-
national reforms and commercial
privileges.
A dispatch to the Temps from Metz
says that the Sixteenth German army
corps is showing less activity than
the Twentieth and Sixth French army
corps, as the Sixteenth German army
corps has been continually on war
footing and is prepared for immediate
mobilization. The dispatch says that
the inspection of troops has been ac-
tive on both sides. However, this ac.
tivity has been less marked recently,
as all eyes have been turned toward
Paris in the expectation of a favor
able result of the diplomatic negotia-
lions.
