THE KISS IN THE TUNNEL
The Way "a Man Had Revenge For an
Act of DihcOnrteAX

The Way "a Man Had Revenge For an
Act of DiscOurtesy.
Courtesy always pays; discourtesy
never does" said Il famous Frenchwo
man. Let me tell you a story of an
actual happening:
Two women occupied a compartment
in Il railway carriage with one man, u
stranger They were extremely rude
to this man. In whispers that he could
overhear they criticised his costume
his figure and his manner He, to be
revenged, did singular thing
THE blackneSs of tunnel envel-
Oped the car, and under cover of the
darkne IS the man kissed the back o.
his hand loudly and repeatedly. TIC
when the train entered the light aga
he looked from one woman to the Othe.
with significant smile
''They exchanged chances of suspi-
cion
"'Was it you he kissed?
NO; of course not. Was it youE
'And neither lady would believe tile
others denial, and each in her inmoSt
heart believed the other had encour-
aged the kiss. The man looked cool
and complacent When finally he rose
to go he said, lifting his hat with a

Have no fear, ladies. | shall never

PROBABLY NO MORE FIGHTING

The battle which two or three
weeks ago seemed to be about to
take place between the Japanese
and Russians has not occurred.
Another serious battle is not prob
able. Though no armistice has
been formally declared, tacit
agreement or understanding seems
to have been reached, and the Japs
have confined their operations to
drawing the Gordon closer and
closer, and slowly driving the Rus
slams nOrthward without any seri-
Gus engagement.
1t would be rather humiliating
for the Russians to ask for an ar
mistice, while the Japs naturally
do not consider it incumbent upon
them to propose cessation of hos
tilities.
The Japs have been ready for
some time to strike the enemy.
While they have made no prom
ises, they have apparently decided
to avoid another bloody battle,
fearing they would be held respOn
sible for any great slaughter on the
eve of peace negotiations. 1t is
claimed by the close friends OF
President Roosevelt that he has
been instrumental in preventing
another bloody battle, and that he
regards this achievement as one OF
the most worthy in his career.
Certainly if his influence has
been effectively exerted in prevent
ing a further effusion of blood, he
deserves great credit for it.
At first the Japs regarded with
suspicion and disapprOval any pro
posal of the cessation of hOStilities
in advance of peace negotiations,
but finally expressed willingness
to agree to a preliminary protocol
involving an armistice. But Rus
STA, though anxious for an arms
tice, feared to propose it, on ac-
count of the possible effect al
home, and the fear that the Japa
nese might be more exacting il
their demands.
| Unless peace negotiations, soor
to begin in this country between
the representatives of the two Ma
tiOns, fail, which is not probable
the bloody war in Manchuria is
practically over.
