Standard of Vice Admiral Togo, and

Sea Engagements of the Russo
Japanese War.
Toxic, Sept 1.-THE navy depart
nent announces that the battleship
Mikasa, Admiral Togo's flagship, has
been destroyed by fire and the explo-
sion of her magazine, causing the loss
of 500 lives, including men of other
ships who went to the rescue.
The fire started from an unknown
cause at midnight on Sunday night,
Sept. 10. Before the men could be
rescued the fire reached the aft maya
zine, which exploded, blowing hole
in the port side OF the vessel below
the water line and causing the ship
to sink.
An investigation is now being held
to determine the cause of the fire.
The Mikasa was the flagship of the
japanese navy, flying the flag of Vice
Admiral Togo, the commander-in-chief.
She was present at all the principal
engagements during the war and was
on several occasions reported severely
damaged in action. In the battle Of
the Sea OF Japan she led the feet into
action and her name was mentioned

Admiral Togo in the great naval bat
lie fought off Port Arthur on Aug. 10,
1904, on which occasion the Japanese
flagship also suffered the most, but
continued in the fighting line. On

the week will suit you better then
you can make the change. BE sure
