.jestvensky Is fifty-seven years of age.
Although he had served in the Rus
sian Navy for thirty-five years, this
last fight was his first great action.
In the Russo-Turkish War he displayed
great gallantry in a minor action and
became q popular hero. He was in
command of q small gunboat, the
Vesta, which went up against q Turk
ish ironclad and. wiped her off the
water in a broadside duel. After the
wal he specialized on gunnery. He be-
came a commander in 1885 and was
attached to the Russian Embassy in
London. where he made a special study
of the British Navy. He had a great
deal to say in the construction of the
new Russian Navy. He had COM
manded two vessels which have since
gone down in this Wharf.-The battleship
Peresviet, sunk at Port Arthur, and
the cruiser Vladimir Monomach, which
went down in this fleet action.
In the Chino-Japanese War in 1894
Rojestvensky was Alexieff's second In
command Of the Russian feet which
kept an eye on proceedings and helped
stake out Port Arthur.
Rojestvensky was attached to the
Cars personal staff when the war
broke out.

had sailed. These reports were denied,
and then repeated, and at length 1t
was definitely established that the Bal
tic feet had sailed.
Nothing more was heard of 1t till
April 8, when the news came that the
feet had passed Singapore and was IN
the China Sea. Again the reports were
contradictory, some being to the effect
that R~ojestvensky's entire squadron had
passed through the Malacca' Straits.
while others said that the principal
battleships were missing. 1t seems
the battleships passed further out
at sea than the rest of the squadron,
and were not seen from the shore.
In the meantime the reinforcing Rus
sian division under Admira: Nebogatof
had sailed from the Baltic. This con-
sisted Of the battleship Imperator Niko-
lai l.. the armered cruiser Vladimir
Monomakh. the coast defense ships Ad-
miral Apraxine, Admiral Oushkoff and
Admiral Seniavin, and a number OF
other comparatively unimportant YES
sells.
After entering the China Sea Rojest-
vensky spent a great deal Of time at
various points IN the coast Of French
Indo-China, and the japanese, who had
been irritated by the breaches Of neu-
trality Of which the French had prev
iously been accused, became greatly
excited over what was declared to be
Frances open defiance Of her neutral
obligations in her Indo-Chinese colony.
Twice, 1t is known, the relations be-
tween France and Japan were greatly
strained, but at length Rojestvensky
quit Indo-C China for good and sailed
north.

deemed ugly. Generally speaking, the
long nose belongs to the people of
Europe, whereas the Negroes and Mon
golians have short noses. With the
Esquimaux the nose is said to be III
many cases so fiat that a ruler might
be placed upon both cheeks without
touching it. In man the muscles OF
the nose have little fleyibility except
about the nostrils. which viSibly dilate
and contract under the influence OF
passion. Montegazza has remarked
that among civilized people the nose IS
nearly always DETECTED toward the
right, which he attributes to the GUS
tom of wiping the nose with the right
hand. Leonardo de Vinci discovered
that there were over ten different varl-
cites of nose, seer in profile. IL eleven
when looked at in front. Charles
Blanc considered the nose the most
characteristic feature of the face, ana
recommended ladies to regulate the
style Of their dress with reference to
its shape; and Lavater went so far as
to assert that a beautiful nose was
worth more than a kingdom; that it is
never associated with an ugly face

the Russian ships murfnied while en-
route to the China Sea. Admiral Ro-
jestvensky subdued them by threaten
ing to fire on them. Disaffection among
the sailors may also account for the
striking Of four Russian flags.
London, England.-A dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Seoul, Korea, said that
Admiral Togo, with practically all the
powerful fighting ships Of the jap
anese Navy, was at Masampo early on
the first morning of the engagement,
when wireless signals from his scouts
between Tsu Shima and the Quelpart
Islands informed him that the Baltic
fleet was approaching in full force.
A few hours later he received news
from his scouts that the Russians were
not moving up the western channel be-
tween TSu Shima and Korea, but were
passing through the eastern channel
between Tsu Shima and Japan. This
caused some surprise.
Admiral Togo Immediately left his
base and proceeded at full speed round
the northern end of Tsu Shima, and
when he doubled the island he saw the
Russians coming in two columns. He
brought a terrific fire to bear ON the
head of the starboard column, and as
the Russians fell into disorder forced
them steadily eastward toward the
Japanese coast, where they were at
tackled by every vessel that flew the
Japanese flag.
Repeated torpedo attacks were de-
livered.
No doubt remains that what was left
Of the magnificent fleet of Admiral
RojestvenSky after the conclusion Of
the last general engagement, Of which
there were three, ran for dear life, its
units shattered and scattered, hoping
against hope to reach Vladivostok OF
some neutral port, where a haven OF
refuge might be found from the merci-
less Japanese pursuers.
Washington, D. C.-The United States
naval attache at Toxic reported to the
Navy Department that RGjestvensky's
flagship, the battlesbip Suvaroff, was
badly damaged.
Doubt of Admiral Rojestvensky'sfatc
was removed when Admiral Togo's re-
port that be had captured the defeated
Russian reached the japanese Lega-
ton from Toxic.
~Rojestvensky and about eighty off,
GERS and men escaped to the Russian
torpedo boat destroyer Biedovy, which
tried to get away, but was overhauled
off the Korean coast by a japanese de-
stroyer and compelled to surrender.
Ro~jestvensky and another Russian Ad-
miral were found to be severely
wounded.
No doubt remains that the Japanese,
through their marvellous success over
the Russian Baltic fleet. have complete
control Of the sea and need have no
fear for the remaining period Of the
war that they can maintain uninter-
rupted water communication between
the home supply bases and the Jap
anese armies in the zone Of shore hos

Record Making Voyage.

The fleet under the command OF vice
Admiral R~ojestvensky, known as the
Russian Second Pacific Squadron,
sailed from the Baltic last October af-
ter various delays which had caused
some European critics to assert that
the vessels would never start and that
the Russian Admiralty never intended
that they should start.
The voyage had hardly been begun
when an incident occurred which as
tonished the entire world and nearly
led to war between Russia and Great
Britain. In the North Sea, at the point
known as the Dogger Bank, the Rus
sian vessels encountered the Gamecock
fishing fleet from Hull, England. The
Russian Admiral mistook some of the
trawlers for torpedo boats and ordered
his vessels to fire. One fishing boat
was sunk and two men were killed,
others being badly wounded.
After leaving the Straits of Gibraltar
the fleet divided, one division, under
Admiral Rojestvensky, proceeding by
way of the Cape Of Good Hope, and
the other, under Admiral Yoelkersam,
going via the Suez Canal. Rojestven-
sky had with him most of the battle
ships, and Voelkersam the majority OF
the cruisers.
France asserts that the Russian ships
did not remain in the colonial terri
torlal waters, but Rojestvensky's YES
sells were undoubtedly close to the
island Of Nossi Be, off the north coast
of Madagascar. The long time spent
there ed to renewed assertions that
the Admiralty at st. Petersburg would
never order the fleet to the Far East.
In the middle of March, however, re-
ports were printed that The Russians

Voices of the Marsh.

There is a quality in the frogs sere-
made that strikes in ones mind the
chord of sadness, in another the chord
of contentment. To me 1t is the chant
of the savage, just as the boot of an
owl or the bark of a fox brings my
mind back to the wilderness.
We have been occupied with thoughts
of the world when out of the night
comes the soft croon of a little screech
owl and we are brought back to nature
ut once. Our cities are new-this cry
is almost as ancient as the hills. 1t
belongs with the soil beneath our
towns. 1t is the spirit of the past cry
Ing to us. Old books carry us back to
our racial periods, but this cry takes
US back from all books. So the dirge
of the frog is the cry of the spirit OF
river and marsh land. That old bulls
croak, how old he must be, probably
greatgrandsire Of the lesser fry. He
must be ancient. At least he is the
chief exponent of the ancient order OF
things.-Walter King Stone, in Recre-
alton.

The war has now resolved itself into
q land struggle. Such Russian fighting
ships as escaped, If there be any, can
find their only shelter in V~ladivostok,
from which they will not dare emerge
to do battle with the blockading force
which Togo will of course send to that
port, or in neutral harbors, where they
must, under the rule adopted early IN
the war, submit to being stripped OF
their armament and remain In the GUS
rtody Of the neutral authorities until
peace has been declared.
; St. Petersburg, Russia.-The Car
was completely Frustrated by the de-
feat of Admiral Roestvensky's fleet.
Like the officers in the Admiralty he
refused, at first, to believe the report
rof the defeat, but when 1t was n
irmed he broke down and wept.
" The defeat Of the fleet will be q great
blow to the Government. The cry of
peace at any price" Is sure to be
raised, and at this time 1t Is not be-
lieved the Government can resist the
cry.
The futility of further land opera
tons Is recognized, and the warships
which Japan captured are ready-made
reinforcements enough to insure the
defeat Of the Third Pacific Squadron
now about to sail from Cronstadt;
With the Japanese in absolute control
of the sea, reinforcements a be
poured into Manchuria and Korea by
the shipload.
At the Admiralty no naval officer
had the temerity to even suggest that
it was possible that Russia could re-
| gain this control of the sea.

Ouebec,s Enormou. Birth Rate.

DR.. Osler says you can't diminish the
birth rate of Quebec. In the year 1880
the late Hon. II. MERCER, then Prime
Minister Of the province, had a law
passed by the Provincial Legislature
granting 100 acres Of the public lands
to each father and mother Of twelve
living children, and last year a return
was made to the House of those who
had taken advantage of this act. This
return shows that there were more
than 34OO families of twelve living
children in the province, while some
were boosted Of seventeen, eighteen,
nineteen, and one ever ran up to twen-
ty-three.
According to the last report of the
provincial compiler Of vital statistics,
that is to say, for 1908, 6O,419 births
were registered, which gives a birth
rate of 3G.75 per 1900 Of the popula-
ton.
