HARDIN IS BURNING

Gunshu, March 28.-The japanese
have apparently withdrawn to the re-
gion south Of the Russian front Cos
sack patrols, which have been making
extensive "Reminiscences southwark,
found no japanese within 30 miles.
General Linevitch is dispatching scout
ing parties east and west to guard
against possible turning movement.
A number of Chinese bandits have
been captured, some Of whom are Mon
golians.
The impression prevails in some
military circles in St. Petersburg that
the japanese, having reduced the posi-
bility of the main army in Manchuria
assuming the initiative, will now turn
their attention to the next objective of
the war, Vladivostok, is strengthened
by the Associated Press dispatch from
Gunshu pass announcing the with
drawal of the Japanese from the i'm
mediate front of the Russian army for
a distance of 30 miles south 1t is real
lied, of course, that this may be mere
ly blind to cover thanking operations,
but it is not improbable that the Jap
anese. having cleared southern Man
churia of Russian troops and secured
a position from whence expulsion
would be a long and difficult process,
may be satisfied to hold the Tie Pass
line without further extension of COM
munication.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in London by the publication of
Toxic dispatch from the correspond
ent of the London Daily Telegraph, in
which he states that word has been re-
ceived that fire which started in Har
bin last Wednesday is still burning,
and that a large section of the city and
enormous quantities of stores destined
for the Russian army have been de-
stroyed. The report is not confirmed
from any sources, and inquiries adj
dressed to st. Petersburg brought the
response that nothing could be learned
there as to the truth or falsity of the
statements. If true, it is likely to
prove a serious matter to General Line
witch, as the Russian commander s re-
serve stores of supplies were all stored
by the single track line of the trans
siberian railroad. The Russian troops
at the fornt are none too we'll Supplied
with food and ammunition, and an
other prolonged conflict with the Jap
anese would undoubtedly exhaust all
that they have south of the Sungari
river.

CARNEGIE SCHOOLS

New York, Marcel 2S. -Andrew Car
negie was the guest of honor at the an
nual dinner of the alumni of Steven s
Institute at the Waldorf Astoria.
President Alexander Humphreys of
Stevens Instituted annoucned that Mr..
Carnegie in addition to $3.50, 900,
which he has arleady given to the in
stitute, would give $50, 1000 more, to
which he himself would add 500, 200
when the alumni raised another $780,
900.
MIR. Carnegie said in part: 81 want
to tell you, gentlemen, that your career
is much higher than a speculative one.
Stock gambling is not a business; in
it is a mere parasite on business.
eff had a son 1 should prefer to
have him enter upon professional Ca
reer such as you choose rather than any
other. l have been looking largely into
small colleges of late andII have enter
ed into college business as l not long
long ago entered into the library bust
ness. l did a rip roaring business at
the library stand, but could look
ahead and see the demand for libraries
slacken. My secretary says that the
demand is down to only one library a
day.
81 think young man who goes to a
small college receives a better educa-
ton than at larger one. l like to see
men not excelling in football or things
pertaining to the foot, but excelling in
head expansion. Sport is too generally
taking the place of valuable knowledge
at the big colleges.
Since have gone into the new bust.

Within the past few days l have re-
ceived more than one hundred applica-
tions for the material am sending to

Elaborate Planning for Christmas Bust.
ness, Always a Year Ahead.

Elaborate Planning for Christmas BUSH
ness, Always a Year Ahead.
Anybody begun thinking yet about
buying things for this years Christ
mas trade?" was asked of an importer
of toys.
Thinking about it," said the I'M
porter. why, many of the larger
Wholesale dealers and jobbers through
out the country have already bought.
They begin buying in January, almost
year ahead. We begin our prepare
tons pretty nearly a year and a half
ahead.
Every year in August our buyers
go to Europe to make preparations for
the Christmas trade of the following
year. They go to all the toy centers
of France, Germany and Austria, and
search everywhere for novelties. So
for the Christmas trade of the present
year, 1904, our buyers went abroad last
year, in the summer of 1903. Just when
the actual retail trade here in Christ
mas things was at its height last year
we were getting in our samples for the
trade Of year later, Tor this year of
1904.
"A week after last years retail trade
had closed, or, say, about January /,
our store was full of samples of stand
ard assorted goods and of novelties set
out for this years Christmas trade.
The samples are shown here early
in order that we may know what the
demand is going to he for this thing
or that, and it takes time to make the
goods and to deliver them. In Europe
they get to work first on these orders
from distant countries. from the Unit
ed States and South America and Aus
tralia.
80 the large wholesalers and job
hers of toys begin buying Christmas
things in January; and while there
may appear later supplementary novel;
ties, they have done the bulk of their
buying or ordering of imported toys by
May.
Later these same buyers from all
over the country. who had bought i'm
ported toys by sample in January and
May, come to New York again, begin
ming about August 1. to buy American
toys. This buying is mainly over by
November l. two months or more be-
fore Christmas.
"All these Christmas things which
appear to the general public FOR a
brief season of only month or two,
and which blossom out so suddenly
when they do come, in all their glory.
as though they had just sprung up in
night are in reality the results Of
years careful and elaborate plan
ming, both in the production and the
distribution with attention to every
detail. And this is repeated every
year. We are always a year ahead"

COUNTY ACT is VOID

Idaho's legislature may create new
counties, but has not the power TO abol-
ish old countless the substance of the
decision of the supreme court of Idaho
Monday afternoon in declaring that
the action of the last Legislature in
creating the new counties of Lewis and
Clark was unconstitutional and void.
The views of the court were given
from the bench, the written opinion
not having yet been filed.
This means a complete victory for
Rathdrum, which had been making a
hard fight to retain the county seat of
Kootenai county, which was abolished
by the act of the Legislature, the terri
tory being taken to make the new
counties.
The court holds that although the
legislature may create new counties
from parts of old ones, it can not abol-
ish the old county nor deprive any
place of the county seat. In the state
of Idaho the county seat may be re-
moved only by a vote of the people,
and the court declares that the lCgisla-
ture can not do indirectly what il has
not the power to do directly.

Statue Of Gen. Sherman.

Auguste Rodin, the sculptor. has
written to Ambassador Porter saying
that the colossal equestrian statue of
General Sherman will be the central
feature Of the coming national salon.
The statue is from Carl Rohlsmith's
cast, from which the original now on
the south front Of the treasury build
ing at Washington was made. Mr..
Rohlsmith is here experimenting the
exhibit. The salon authorities have
decided to accept the statue. although
the entries are already $4,000 in ex-
cess of the limit
