Future of War and Fate of Empire
 at Stake.

Future of War and Fate of Empire
 at Stake.
 ST. PETERSBURG. April 24.-Not only the future of the war in the far east, but the fate of the whole pro- gramme of internal reform to which Emperor Nicholas stands committed appears to await the issue of the ap- preaching sea battle between Rojest- vensky and Togo. The government undoubtedly would be greatly strength ened, at least for the moment. by a victory decisive enough to change the war situation The Liberals are i'm patient at the delay and suspicious 0f every move of the government. They are convinced that if victory comes the bureaucracy. to which the realiza- tion of reforms has been consigned by the emperor, will be able, despite the clamor throughout the country, to keep the execution of these reforms in their own hands, which of course in their opinion would mean their even- tual dissipation in a labyrinth of end less commissions. Moreover, they be- lieve that the emperor might again be persuaded to listen to the necessity of the old style of repression of the pres. ent agitation.
 Practically the interior administra- tion is being conducted through a po- lice regime. Already there are every where evidences of return to Won Plehve methods. Domiciliary visits and arrests by scores and hundreds are reported in every part of the empire, and meetings of all classes of the peo- pie are forbidden and broken up by the police under the direction of the local governors. Even zemstvo meet ings at Vladimir. Elizabethpol. Orel, Tifiis and Livadia have been closed.
 Should Rojestvensky be defeated the Liberals believe that the bureaucracy would capitulate and that peace and . constitution would come.
 In the meantime the Easter holidays and May day are awaited with ex- treme anxiety both by the authorities and the public.

WARSHlPSAT MANILA.
Three Cruisers of Japanese Fleet Outside the Harbor.
RUMORS OF 4 BATTLE IN CHINA SEA

 Squadron Reported by Way of
 HonGkong Soon After Depar-
 ture From Kamranh Bay.
 MANILA, April 24-Three warships are now off Corregidor island. It ia supposed here that they are Japanese vessels and that Japanese Consul Ma. rita Gosi is hourly expecting the ar. rival of Vice Admiral Kamimura. There is great official activity here. The American admiral, the Japanese con. sul and the general in command have held conferences.
 It was said in the American navy headquarters that Japan had informed the authorities that Japanese fleet might enter Manila harbor, but would remain outside the territorial limits.
 Word has come from Hongkong by cable of the rumored fight last night off the Cochin China coast, but there is no information that will throw any light upon the supposed battle. The impression here is that Japanese scout boats attacked the Russian squadron and that this is the beginning of Togo's campaign.
 It can be said positively that the Jap anese battleships are not farther up the China sea than Formosa, and it is doubtful that any big division of cruis- CTS has gone as far as the French Co- chin China coast.
 A dispatch from Saigon. French Co., chin China says the complete Rus. sian fleet left Kamranh bay on April 2 at midday. At night heavy can- nonading was heard out at sea. It is supposed the Russian fleet was engag- ed with portion of the Japanese squadron. Before the departure of the squadron Vice Admiral Rojestvensky visited Ad- miral Jonquieres.
 No Russian officer or sailor landed from the fleet in Kamranh bay. They had expected Nebogatoffs detachment of the squadron to arrive at any mo- ment.
 The natives were highly pleased with the great rise ip the price of provisions owing to the Russians visit.

Expulsion of Russian Fleet From
 Kamranh nay the Cause.
 TOKYO. April 24.-The announce ment that in response to Japan's rep rescntations France has promised the expulsion of the Russian second Pa cific squadron from Kamranh bay and affirmed her determination to maintain neutrality is received here with pleas ure and has relieved the tension of popular feeling. although it is believed that if Rojestvensky entered Kamraph bay for the purpose of finally prepar- ing for a dash north the purpose was accomplished before he was ordered to leave.
 There is also suspicion that Rojest. vensky may simply make a technical removal from French territorial wa ters by going outside the three mile limit: hence the incident will remain unclosed until the Russians depart from Indo- Chinese waters.
 Injsstiee Claimed Toward Russia
 PARIS. April 24.-Some of the news papers of Paris. commenting upon the expulsion of the Russian second Pa. cihc squadron from French territorial waters in Indo-C China. hold that France in seeking to render exact justice to Japan has been unjust to Russia The Echo de Paris. which is strongly pro Russian. says that Frances insistnnce upon Roieetvensky's leaving Kamranh bay will have the effect of making hih an easy prey to Togo. as the Russian ships. being dri~en from all points without being, able to take on coal must put to sea with half filled bunk CTS. being thus crippled at the moment of meeting the enemy. And this is neutraIity.- scornfuIiy observes the Echo de Paris.

There are other phases of this bug disease that have not been touched upon yet but they seem to be merely symptomatic rather than ser iously developed. One is little in sect about the size of a pin head but he only comes for a night or two then goes away. Another is a little flat steel gray bug of penetrating habits. He doesn't do much flying and is not a spectacular animal. His habitat is mainly between the skin and the uu- dershirt. The latest pest is able to command but little attention for he is due annually the same as taxes and his coming is expected. He has been more than usually modest this year as he has only appeared one night in any considerable number and that was Thursday night following the shower of the evening before. He is a little red bug that at first sight looks like all ant with long white wings on him, though a closer inspection fails to re- veal any similarity except the color. 1

Immediately dressed, and with a fine
air. We had long admired him from
a distance, wondered who he was, and
why a man of such obvious import
ance should dine in SO modest place.
"One day after weeks absence
he came in and sat down at the table
opposite with so grand a manner
that our curiosity overcame our court
esy.

Sadie, the waitress.
Sadie we asked, who is that
man over there?'

Christ doing it as a special favor, but
that it was his nature to love sinful

Love MOI the World.

A writer of discernment and chaste
expression, in illustration of the Scrip
ture, Love not the world, neither the
things that are in the world" said:
IF you VIII go to the banks of little
stream and watch the flies that come
to battle in it, you will notice, while
they plunge their bodies in the water,
they keep their wings high out of the
water; and after swimming about
little while, they fly away with their
wings unwet through the sunny air.
Now that is a lesson for us. Here we
are immersed in the cares and busi-
ness of the world; but let us keep the
wings of our soul, our faith, and our
love, out of the world. that. with these
unclogged, we may be ready to take
our fight to heaven" And We may
add not only that I'VE may be ready to
take our flight TO heaven" but that,
with the light wings of soul and faith
and love, we may soar aloft into the
higher experiences Of the spiritual life
in this world all the more delightful
and sweet because Of the contract
with the sordid cares and perplexities
Of this worldly world.
