Losres nt Mukden.

Gunshu Pass. Manchuria, April B. An exact statement of the losses in all categories in the battle of Mukden from February 1s to March Is, com piled by the general stan. shows that the casualties were greatly over-stated in earlier reports. Statements from Japanese sources indicating wholesale captures of prisoners, enormous booty ard cannon are now denied.
 In reality it appears the Russian losses amounted to two generals, who were captured, 1885 staff and other of ficers and s7,677 mem, of whom the greater part, about 5000 were wound ed. Tn evacuating Mukden and re- treating to the northward the Russians lost thirty-two guns of which three were mortars, three old type field guns with piston action and twenty-s quick fire guns. Of the siege artillery every gun and all the ammunition carts were sent north two days before the retreat began.
 General Karkevitch, the chief of staff, calculates that other losses aside from wounded were as follows: 15,000 killed. 1000 to 5000 known to have been captured and 10000 to l2,000 to be missing, of whom several thousand were drivers, sanitary and commis- sariat corps employees and other non combatants. A very large number were slightly wounded and returned to the ranks, many even resorting to de- ception in order to leave the hospitals. This would indicate that the extent of the Japanese victory and the disorder of the Russian retreat have been ex- aggerated and that the spirit of the Russian army is still strong and the troops not demoralized.

HOOK CAUGHT
TWO EMPLOYEES
Experienced Man Was First to
be Hurt and He Warned the
Other Of the Danger.

Within an hour two men were in
jured in the rolling mill department
at the G. Pardee Steel Works, last
night, by being caught under the chin
by the roughiAg hook. The irst.man,
William Stevens, of Madison avenue,
was only slightly injured, but the Sec
ond man, William Horn of Brighton
avenue, had deep cash cut in his
face, lost number of teeth and
knocked others loose. He was taken
to his home.
During the past few days work in
the rolling mill has become SO heavy
that it was necessary to put on a
night force. A few of the old day
hands were put on with number of
new men. Stevens was one Of the old
men and Horn commenced to work last
night for the first.
The foreman had Stevens to show
Horn how to work the big roughing
hook, which is used to scrape off the
rough edge from the bars. 1t came
down while they were leaning over
the press and caught Stevens under
the chin and threw him to the floor.
lie received slight cut under the
chin, but otherwise was not hurt He
warned Horn to be careful of it.
For some time Horn worked the
press and then the hook played the
same trick again with Horn as the

Weather Prevented Large At

THE CHAPTERS REPRESENTED.
Rev. ". c. SnOdgass Gave Helpful Talk Which Was Greatly
Enjoyed By all The Church Had Been
Beautifully Decorated

The Epworth League group rally
held in Simpson NJ. e. church, last
night, was not largely attended on
account of the inclement weather, but
nevertheless it was pronounced a sue
cess.
The prevailing scheme of decora-
tion was red and white, the league
colors. The tall chandeliers upon
each side of the pulpit were draped
in red and white and above the organ
was maltese crown inscribed
Fletcher Chapter, No. 1908 E. L."
The meeting opened with singing
by an address by A. Y. Tomlinson,
TIE district president. f. r. Conklin
then sang very pleasing solo which
was followed by an address of welcome
by the local president, L. C. Harner.
The ninety-first psalm was then read
responsively. Mrs. Macan sang "Open
the Gates OF the Temple, y which was
greatly appreciated. Miss Ida Noe
was the accompanist and she acquitted
herself with honors.
DR.. Snodgrass made an address upon
''The Heroism Of Youth" The adj
dress was strong and full of pointed
facts. He showed the pitfalls into
which youth are prone to fall and
showed the wav in which they could
be avoided. He stated that all heroes
did not go to war and do great deeds,
that some of them were at home, and
pointed out how and why they were
heroes. Hunger, imitation and false
moral standards he gave as founda-
tionss of the address. That more men
were driven to drink by the lack OF
improperly prepared foods than by
their own desire for liquor, was a
forciful argument used in the address.
He also spoke strongly against the
prevalence of lynching and condemned
any body OF persons who would do
collectively what each one OF them
would not do personally. Little knowl-
edge rather than too much knowledge
was another point in DR.. Snod grass S
interesting address.
Jesse Slaight sang ''My Redeemer
and Ny Lord" by Dudley Buck, in
his usual pleasing manner The
league benediction followed.
A feature of the evening were the
lady ushers, who presented each mem
ber of the audience with red and
white ribbon, the league colors. The
ushers we're Miss Elsie Mercer, Miss
Hattie Mead, Miss Luella Derby and
Miss Ruth Fletcher.
After the meeting refreshments
were served in the basement of the
church. The social part of the rally
was unde the direction of Mrs. L. G.
Harner who, with an able corps of
assistants from the social department
of the league, made the evening one
of pleasure for the members of the
out-of town and the local league.
Red and white were the colors of
decoration in the lecture room.
Representatives of the Woodbridge
Epworth League and of ST. Paul's
church, at Tottenville, were present.
A delegation from the Danish M. Z.

To Win in Life.

Do we not pay so much attention
TO mere material success that we ex'
clude from mind and heart other
things more precious? | am anxious
(says Albert ]. Beveridge) that every
young man should win in all the con
flicts of life--win in college and in
buslness-but am even more anxious
that through all of his triumphs he
should grow ever broader, sweeter
and more kindly. After all, we are
human beings. We do not want to be
mere machines of success, do we?
That is carrying our mechanical age
a little too far. We want to keep that
within us which makes our victory
worth having after we have won it.
What matter your mountains OF
wealth. or your network of political
power. or those secrets which, in your
laboratory, you have wrung from Ma
ture-what matter all, and everything
that the world calls success. II the
human quality has been dried up in
yon?
