Refortifcation Work.

Chefoo.-Advices from japanese
sources say that the condition of Port
Arthur is chaotic, but that Gen. Stoes-
sci and Gen. Nogi are rapidly system
atizing things there.
Gen. Nogi is prepared, through his
agents, who have been recruiting fo1
months, to put force Of Chinese cool
les at work refortifying Port Arthur
Immediately after the Russians are
disposed of. Vast quantities Of lum-
Der and cement are ready on the Yalu
river for the purpose, while steel
plates and other manufactured neces-
saries are ready in Japan for trans
portation to the fortress.
The japanese are confident that the
identification of Port Arthur will
place the fortress in a better condi-
ton than ever, with the Russian de-
fees eliminated, long before Russia
can bcisege it, if such a thing ever
occurs at all.
Ammunition, food and medical sup
plies to last for years will be sent to
Port Arthur, Japan, being heedful OF
the mistakes made by the Russians.

Only a Trivial Error.

In the course Of long and eyentful
life Martin Boggs had never been
known to admit that any of the fail
ures which had bespinkled his career
had resulted from a mistake on his
part.
If his potatoes did not turn out we'll
in the new place he had chosen for
them in the face of advice, it was be-
cause he had planted them there as a
warning to his son, who had notion
to try experiments" If his children

to take his wifes wishes into coI.sid-
Grafton in regard to visit to al in

it, and get over with it, although. he
hadn't thought best to say So
If an investment turned out badly
he had just put the money in to en-
courage the company, although ne
knew it was no use"
When he opened the cellar door of
neighbCr's house one night under the
impression that it was the one which
led to another room, and then steppsd
off into space and landed on the cellar
bottom, it really seemed as if for onac
he would have tc own to q mistake.
When it was ascertained that beyond
some bad bruises and one or two easily
remedied dislocations Martin was safe
and sound, one OF his old friends ven
tured a little mild banter.

THE MAKING OF A MAN.
School Boys Plea for an Education
Which Revealed His Rugged Qualities.

School Boys Plea for an Education
Which Revealed His Rugged Qualities.
A boy from the farm stood before
the Judiciary committee of the board
OF education and made out a case for
himself. He set up an excuse for liv-
ing that appealed strongly to the 9TH
er qualities in the makeup of the
committee besides it's judicial bent.
He is student at one of the high
schools, and as a nonresident was
confronted with the $40 fee which
the board is trying to impartially col
lect. 1t developed that the farm lad
came to the city to get an education
and to support himself by doing mes
senger work. But he couldn't earn the
extra $40 without leaving school for
long time. Hard lines for the boy.
He was what they call up against it,
splendid opportunity confronted
him to pass down and out and join
the shiftless ranks of the many who,
finding the road hard, the hill steep,
and the admission fee uncharitably

to cursing the judiciary committee
that runs the universe. But this boy
did not follow the majority.
I'll not give up. I'm bound to get
a good education and make a man Of
myself and be somebody in this
world" That is what the boy said to
the committee, which thereupon sat
up and looked at him. There are a
lot of other children on the farm,
and my father couldn't afford to edu-
cate me properly But I'll not give up.
I'll work until get money enough
ahead" he said. There is good stuff
in that farm lad, and it will require
more ingenuity that circumstances can
usually furnish to defeat the strong
purpose that evidently actuates him.
No doubt he knows what it is to walk
home from the ~fallow with mud balls
on the heels Of his boots and to count
the wasps' nests on the raftejs Of
his sleeping room, but his ambition
has been whetted by keen wind. 1t
