ANTICIPATES A NAVAL BATTLE.
Admiral AveIIan, Head of Russian Ad.
niraItv Thinks One Near.


st. Petersburg, May 26.-Admiral
Avellan, head of the Russian admiral
ty department, confirms The Asso-
ciated Press dispatches saying Vice
Admiral Roiestvensky is steaming
north to give battle to Admiral Togo.
He considers it possible that news
that the two fleets have met may be
received any day.
In an interesting interview Admiral
Avcllan reaffirms the official denial
of the reports that Admiral Rojest-
venslly has broken down and asked
to be relieved. Avellan says ROjest-
vensky sent detailed reports of the
condition of his own health and Of
the health Of the crews of his ships.
The constant tension and hard work
Of the past months have been a great
strain on the admiral's health.
Even before he left" said Avel-
Ian, "Rojestvensky was a sufferer
from kidney trouble, but his health
is no worse. His reports breathe a
spirit of strength, resoluteness and
confidence, and other reports show
he has inspired his crews with tho
confidence Of their commander. AS
q matter of fact, it is not Rojestven-
sky, but Vice Admiral Voelkersam,
who has suffered from the long stay
in the tropics"

The Young Physician.
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

IN the early sixties it was usually the
duty of practicing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
a splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was &C
customed to ride ten, twenty or thirty
miles or more visiting the sick and
afflicted, His success was soon phcnOm-
email. Doctors and families called him for
consultation to towns at considerable dis
tances by rail- One of his specialtics was
the cure of those distressing diseases OF
women. He had early discovered that
by combining the vegeta bic extract OF
the following medicinal plants in just the
right proportion without the use OF alec,
hol- his prescription invariably cured
such cases. Later, in order to place this
remedy before the public in shape easily
to be procured, he established a labora-
tory at Buffalo. N. Y, where regularly
qualified chemists were put in charge 70

put it in shape for shipment to all parts
Of the United States. This remedy, which

Of the imperial u ase issued March 3,
granting the people freedom to pc
tition the emperor through the COM

The ruling in effect is that this priv

tons must confine themselves to
questions within their competency.
The duty of enforcing this inhibition
is imposed on the presiding officer
WHO will be amenable to prosecution

neither will the strike be spread to

breakers. It would seem to me that
