San Francisco, Aug. 27.-Two Off
GERS of the Russian transport Lena,
now interned at Mare island navy
yard, were turned out of the Palace
hotel during the small hours. The
night Waterman of the big hotel threw
them out with their baggage. Incl.
dentally, two women guests at the
Palace were required to leave at the
same time.
Captain A. Ginther, who is in com.
mand of the Lena, and his second Of
ficer, Captain S. Ratmanoff, are the
officers who figured in the episode
The women who figure in the adven-
lures of the Lena's officers, arrived at
the Palace a week ago. One claims
to be Mrs. Samuel Smith, wife of a
diplomat in Russia. The other is
Miss Allyn, unmarried, and registered
from New York.

ton in detail. it appears that the
Japanese force of &c vessels. with a
displacement of 274,1S4 tons. has
sunk or captured GA ships, with a total
displacement of 269,77S tons 1t is
true that this includes the ships which
the besiegers guns at Port Arthur
helped to disable, but it was owing to
the eXertions of the Japanese fleet
that these ships We're driven into Port
Arthur and held prisoners there.
Another important point is that
whereas the Japanese have lost IL
ships, with total displacement of
46,025 tons. they have captured and
added to their navy seven vessels,
representing 44,4o6 tons. Nor is this
all. Already at Port Arthur the bat
tleship Peresviet, 1854 tons, and the
armored cruiser Bayan, $500 tons,
have been raised, and at ChemulpO the
protected cruiser Variag, $500 TONS
Other ships will also be raised, but
even with the addition of these three
the Japanese navy energies with a
displacement of 25,455 tons greater
than it had when the war commenced,
whereas the Russian navy has been
practically annihilated.
In addition it should be remembered
that there have been added to the
Japanese mercantile marine 40 YES
sells, with an aggregate displacement
of over 10000 tons. 1t may be OBJ
served that in no case has noncom-
Blatant vessel been sunk by the Japa-
neSe navy.

A Friendly Hint

The art of reproving impertinence Is
practiced in its perfection by women
more frequently than by men. The
Cincinnati Enquirer tells this story of
the experience of a young man who
was taking walking trip in Scotland:
One day, on quiet road, he met a
young woman, tall and comely, who
walked barefooted. The traveller was
surprised, and in an honest quest for
information he stopped her to ask:
do all the people go barefootedY'
"Some of them do" she answered.

own business"

GIRLS WHO NEED COLLEGE.

There are doubtless many cases
where a mother does her whole duty to
her child only when she sends her
quite away from home. If the girl
has been accustomed to luxury, the
college life teaches the difference be-
tween real worth and mere ostenta-
ton; and If the girl has lacked at home
the amenities which are lacking in
many very good homes, she will learn
at college how to bear herself gently.
| In 1.-The College Girl of America" the
author tells Of one girl whose chief
need, apparently, was to be away from
home.
Her mother was a school friend Of
my own, her father a clever profess
sional man. Their one daughter grew
UP and f1ttel for college in the excel
lent academy Of the town. She wss
still in the high light Of her gradua-
ton halo when l saw her for the first
time in some years. The occasion was
a church affair. Half dozen of the
young people in the religious society
to which my friend belonged had grad
uated in the same class with Gertrude,
let us call her, and the rest of the go
ciety gave them reception l went,
accompanied by an elderly relative Of
mine.
Imagine my emotions when, upon
entering the church parlors, l saw the
girls and boys for whom the reception
had been arranged sitting in a rocking
chair circle in the middle Of the room,
laughing and chatting together, with
their backs toward their guests. To my
relative, woman OF nearly seventy,
Gertrude thrust out q hand without
rising. l was SO annoyed that l did
not congratulate the young woman at
all.
In few days 1 saw the girls moth
err, and was taken into her confidence
as to Gertrude's choice Of college. II
think we shall send her where she can
live at home" my friend announced.
l thought of the reception, and de-
termined to risk an injudicious criti-
cism. will you forgive me-" 1 began
slowly, ''for telling you that think
Gertrude would be great deal better
off away from home, in some good col.
lege? Really, you know, she needs a
little toning up in the matter Of man.
ners."
what do I care for her manners IL
her mind Is all rightY demanded nv
friend, with some asperity.
Gertrude is now a B. A., cum laude.
But she still shakes hands with me
without rising.

That's all there was to it. was

and so the girls, nice girls, every one,
that once cost me so much, though I
never begrudged 'em cent Of 1t, now
send me money, every one.
Their business alone is something
tidy, but they are really only a few of
many profitable customers, and have
never regretted taking up the livery
business.

ASKS OIL KING TO PAY,

$500, 600, 900 to Russia.


$500 100000 to Russia.
Paris.-Owing to the reports from
Portsmouth indicating that the ques.
ton OF peace between Russia and ia
pan hinges solely on Russia paying
an indemnity to Japan, the Matin ca
bled remarkable appeal to John D.
Rockefeller at Cleveland. The appeal
in part, follows:
The question of money threatens
to unlOOSen afresh and with redoubled
violence the scourge of war. Presi.
dent Roosevelt is making noble and
heroic efforts to end a struggle be.
tween two nations whose peoples
amount to one seventh of the popula.
ton of the globe. His initiative hon.
ors America in the opinion of the
civilized nations.
The question arises as to whether
another American would not share the
glory of Mr.. Roosevelt and complete
his work by overcoming the sole OBJ.
stacle now hindering peace. He
would thus demonstrate the might of
money IN powerful and generous
hands.
The Matin, constituting itself
spokesman for this sentiment, ad.
dresses the richest citizen in the
world
The appeal concludes with lengthy
arguments showing the immense ben,
efits such an act would confer upon
civilization.
