Weather Conditions.


Birmingham, Tuesday. January g.
Since a. m. yesterday rain or snow has
fa1aen at nearly all points east of the
Mississippi river, though the amounts in
the gulf states were small. At a. m.
snow was falling at Knoxville and in the
states bordering on the great lakes and
in northern New England.
Colder weather is approaching from the
west, temperatures being below freezing
as far south as central Texas and the
northern boundary of Mississippi, Ala
bama and Georgia. Incipient storm devel-
opment appears over Montana and South
Dakota, and this may cause the cold
spell to be short-lived.

RUSSIANS FAIL To
BREAK JAPS' LEFT
Forced to Retire From Sandepas
After Losing 1045 Men.
THE FIGHTING STILL GOING ON

st. Petersburg, Jan. 30.-IDstead of
confirmation of Saturday nights re-
port that General Kuropatkin had
broken through the Japanese let,
there came Lieutenant General SAX
naroff's official admission that the
Russians had been compelled TO retire
from Sandepas on account OF their in
ability to carry redoubt. 1t is also
significant that dispatches FROM Rus
sian correspondents at the front have
again suddenly ceased, which is re-
garded as an indication of the failure
OF the operation and strengthens the
first impression that It was demon
stration undertaken to distract The
people at home from the present jitua-
ton. In the fighting at SandeDas the
Russians lost As officers and 1000 men.
A telegram from Huap mountain
states that General Mistchenko has
been wounded in the leg.
Lieutenant General Sakharoff's re-
port is as follows:
"On January 26 the enemy began to
concentrate in considerable force near
Sandepas, intending to take the Often
sIve. On January q our column on the
extreme left took the offensive against
the villages Of Sumapu and Paotsia,
south Of Sandepas, which were occu-
pied by the enemy. During the whole
of January q an obstinate fight was
going on there, and after midnight we
took Sumapu.
"On January 26 another column ad-
evening a greater part of that fortified
village; but, coming upon strong re-
doubt with a triple row of artificial
obstacles, which has been scarcely
damaged by our fire, which was armed
with field artillery and quick firers
and seeing the impOssibility of carry
ing the redoubt without a preliminary
bombardment, our troops left Sande-
pas, which had been set on fire, i, be-
ing impossible to remain there with
out risking defeat.
"On January q and 20 Sandepas and
Its redoubt We're heavily bombarded,
while our extreme column engaged
near Samapu and Paotsia. Details
have not been received.
"On January 1921 our cavalry, OPP

company and took 100 prisoners.

Tea Houses In Japan.

In Japan nourishment is to be OBJ
tanned by the traveller chiefly at the
picturesque and omnipresent tea houses
scattered all over Japan. When tour
lists stop at one of these places the
runners" who carry the jinrikishas,
battle their own feet and wash their
mouths with cold water, after which
they are served with their meals on
the benches outside the tea houses.
Their meal, which they eat with avidi-
ty, consists Of salt fish, rice, pickles
and soup made of almost everything
odious. After they have eaten they
will smoke tiny pipes, with only three
whiffs for each filling. Next comes the
delicious nectar, world famed, and of
this coup which cheers, but not inebri-
ates," foreigners also are always glad
to partake. 1t Is tea (cha) and when
brewed by the Japanese is perfection.
A pretty tea house girl presents it on

Berlin is at it's best at night. 1t
has discovered the secret of electric
lighting, and when people step out
from their offices and shops at S and 8
o'clock at night it is into an enchanted
city. The solid palaces, the monstrous
statues, the enormous houses and wide
spaces Of the long and stately streets
are then soft and gracious With fairy
radiance. 1t is city not only Of pros
perity, but of pure delight. The heav-
mess Of the buildings and the rigidity
Of their lines are blurred and softened.
In this clear northern air the million
lamps blazing from the walls Of houses,
shining across the interminable streets
and glowing in straight line down
the whispering avenues, have some
thing of the magic gentleness and sen
suous inspiration of an Arabian story
You begin to think Berlin is the great
est city in the world.
