-. NEW HOME FOR sIMPKIN.

The members of the Phillips Con
u,ogationaI church are engaged in get
n.r tbe money to erect parsonage
sor "parson" Peter A. Simpkin. The
cororegational society east has
,,odged half the amount if the local
,ombers will do the rest. 1t is good
idea It makes a permanent residence
for the pastor and the people here
ohould assist, whether members or
not Because Simpkin is good sort
of chan. don't you know. He is a lib
oral man. and a hard worker and we
need him and he ought to have a nice
home to live in, instead of having to
nav rent. By the way, Peter has re-
turned from Santa Monica, where he
has been on a vacation. r. B. Quay
was with him and thereby hangs a
tale. The parson cannot tell fish
stories, so Quay is telling them. Says
he say Simpkin catch five five-pound
sea bass at once, on the same line.
Wouldn't that make you wish for a
club? And when he turns to the par
son for confirmation, the latter does
not deny it. But you can bet he never
says it's truth, although he declares
he caught three at one time that
would total five pounds. But that's
another story.

Sccoc on the Wharf.

Early in the day the body of Omit
chuk was brought ashore in one OF
the battleship's boats and was landed
on the new mole, where it has been
exposed in semi-State all day. It was
visited by thousands Of persons, many
Of whom placed coins in Il basket at
the head Of the body as contributions
toward a fund to defray the cost Of
the funeral.
An Inscription on the breast of the
dead sailor states Oh behalf Of the
crew that Omiltchuk died for tie truth
because he presented u just complaint
of the crew.
The authorities have made no al
tempt to remove the body, the sailors
having served notice that the ship
would open fire on any Il seeking to
interfere with it. A police agent vicit-
ing the spot was killed by strikers.
In the course of the day a red Gag
was hoisted on the Kniaz Potcmkinc,
and members of the crew rowed from
ship to ship in the harbor. forcing the
stoppage Of all work on them.
Food was supplied to the m%ut:leers

Make One Arrest.
st. Louis, Mo.-Owing to the action
of county officers in arresting Charles
Celia. q member of the Central Turf
Association, during the first race at
Delnar, there were 10 official odds on
the last five races, and the only bets
made were between individuals.
For the first time since the anti-bet-
ting law went into effect On June II
the betting ring was deserted by the
members of the Central Turf Associa-
ton, who are behind the plan to make
bets Oh the races in a manner not con-
trary to the law.
Sheriff Harpel, of st. Louis County,
accompanied by several deputies, took
possession Of the betting ring just be-
fore the horses went to the post in the
first race, but only the one arrest was
made. Celia was later held under
$1,000 bond to answer a charge Of vio-
lating the anti-betting law.
Governor Folk, in an interview ear
lier in the day, had declared that
either the Missouri National Guard or
the st. Louis Police Department would
be directed within the next twenty
four hours to raid the bookmlkers at
Delmar race track.

Talents and Confderc'

A single talent man, supported by
great self confidence, will achieve
more than a ten talent mai who does
not believe in himself. The mind can
not act with vigor in the presence OF
doubt. A wavering mind makes
wavering execution. There must be
certainty, confidence and assurance, OF
there can be no efficiency. An I'm
educated man who believes in himself
and who has faith that he a do thu
thing he undertakes. often puts tt
shame the average college bred man

Coal Steamer Seized.

In the course of the daysone Of the
rebel torpedo boats seized the Rus
sian steamer Esperanza in the harbor.
The steamer was laden with 2000 tons
of coal, which the battleship has taken
on board.
Reports Of the mutiny, which oc-
Cured while the battleship was at sea,
are difficult to obtain, as the mutileers
refuse to allow communication with
the shore, but it is ascertained that it
arose from the shooting of q sailor who
was presenting on behalf of the crew
q complaint against bad food.
According to one version, this sailor,
whose name was Omiltchuk. objected
to the quality of the ''borchtch," or
soup, and was Immediately shot down
by a mess officer. The crew then rose
and seized the ship and the officers,
eight of whom were spared on condi-
ton that they joined the n%utineers.
The others were killed and thei- bodies
were thrown overheard.
After a period Of vacillation the

MANY Sailors Disaffected.

/ Should the sailors of Kruger's ships
join the mutineers . the Government
would have to face open revolution,
which would spread like wildfre to
other towns in the Black Sea littOral.
The workmen of all these towns, from
which the sailors of the warships are
largely recruited, are imbued with the
Socialistic and revolutionary propa-
ganda. At Sevastopol less than a
month ago disorders were suppressed
with difficulty.
Every since the wal started ugly
reports about the crews of the Black
Sea feet have been current. Men have
been shot and ever officers court-mar'
tailed for disobedience, and recently
at Serastopol twelve sailors were con
demned to three years Imprisonment
for mutiny.
No better evidence of the spirit OF
the crews is needed than an Official
announcement made by the Admiralty
that Admiral Nebogatoff and the other
officers who surrendered in the battle
Of the Sea of Japan would have to
stand trial by court-martial upon their
return. Practically all the crews OF
the vessels which surrendered came
from the Black Sea.
The fact that Odessa is not a forti-
fed port explains why the Kniaz Po-
temkine is able to lie in the harbor
unmolested.
The news of the mutiny. coming just
at this time, when Poland is in a state
of ferment, when agrarian disorders
are coming to a head, and when the
Government is attempting a mobiliza'
ton involving about 100000 men, may
easily p%recipitate a crisis, and the all.
thorities are endeayoring to keep it
from the public.

Newspaper Dispatches Stopped.

All newspaper dispatches have been
stopped, and the newspapers have
been forbidden to mention the mutiny.
Nevertheless, the Liberals and agita-
tors have many ways of spreading the
tidings through underground channels,
and in st. Petersburg the news was
known in all the cafes at midnight.
The Radicals hail the event as the
dawn of an actual armed revolution.
The moment for which we have wait
ed has come" said one in front of a
restaurant when he heard the news.
"Omiltchuk's name will go down in
history as that Of 4 martyr who pre-
cipitated a Russian revolution
News has been received OF dis0r-
ders resulting from the mobilization
in the Government OF Poltava, some
raservists refusing to appear. and 9TH
ers starting riots. The authorities of
Poland are unwilling to dispatch
troops, as the entire force available is
needed in that Government.
The mobilization in st. Petersburg
and Moscow began at midnight. Many
of the reserve men who did not respond
were seized il the course of the night
at their homes. All DAY long men
were being marched to barracks under
escort.
The workmen were grumbling and
trouble was expected. Sixty thousand
men have been called to the colors. Or
this number about half will be lncor-
Dorated into regiments.
An imperial cdict orders the moblll2a-
ton for active service of ~reseryists
in 1914 districts Of st. Petersburg, Mos
COW. KiefT. Warsaw and Wilma. These
districts include the City Of st. Peters
burg and Moscow.

vailed everywhere. Sleep was impos.

1T is Thought that it may become
necessary to summon foreign warships
for the protection of the foreign colo

loss Of seventeen lives, including
three policemen

seventeen.
According to the correspondent Of
The Standard. the quarantine station,
harbor warehouses. stores. offices and
some ships had been fired by revoiu-

slip their mornings in case of need, and

Why Topo WON.

Although We cannot at present draw
any conclusions as to the relative eff.
ciencieS of gun and torpedo, or the eff.
fleets upon tactics Of armor. speed and
other elements of warship design. there
lis one lesson Of this battle that stands
predominant. 1t is as old as history
itself, and has been repeated in almost
every battle that has been fought since
IMAM began to STAY his fellow man. 1t
lis that brain, nerve and siaew decide
the fight rather than weapons. 1t is a
doctrine to which we all subscribe. but
seldom follow. Our talk is great of
ships and guns, little of practice and
use.
Russia, under her present social con
ditions, can never have 4 navy fit to
cope with that of Japan. On one side
we hear of leaders Quarreling in the
very presence of the enemy-of mu-
TIMES, disorder and unreadinesS; on the
other, a people provident, brave and
ever ready to sacrifice not only their
Iives-that is common enough-but
their dignity, or rather vanity, for the
protection of 4 beloved country. The
battles that have been lost through the
jealousy of commanders is almost be-
You'd belief. TO Judge By the event
there seems to have been no lack OF
bravery shown by the defeated side.
The ships that surrendered were appar-
emily in a hopeless plight. and many
seem to have fought after any expec-
'tation of victory was beyond hope.
One cannot but sympathize with the
unfortunate Russian Admiral. He was
given a task to perform which we now
know must have been impossible: a
fact which he doubtless recognized
from the firSt.-Enginering.
