DR.. Stevens's Narrow Escape.

Rock Hill Herald:
Dr.. w. G. Stevens came very
near meeting with an accident
at White street crossing yester-
day about noon that would very
probably have proven fatal. He
drove down East White street
to the crossing at the depot and
stopped. Two ladies in a buggy
in front of him were signaled
across by the fagman. He was
then signaled to drive on, and his
horse was about to place his fore
feet on the track the doctor pull
ed the animal to one side just in
time to avoid collision with the
rear end of freight train that
was backing over a crossing. The
DOCTORS attention was attracted
to the train by the shouts Of a
aagman on the rear box.

SHAW SAYS POLITICS
PLAYED NO PART

DIES MONIES, Ia.-Secretary of the
Treasury Leslie M. Shaw, who was
the guest of the bankers club at a
luncheon, repeated his assurances to
Des .Moines bankers that government
finances were in no danger.
1t was expected that Secretary
Shaw, who, as governor, paroled
Frank Shercliffe, because, it was
claimed, of political influences, might
be subpoenaed as witness at the
Dennison trial.
Neither politics nor friendship had
anything to do with that parole,
said Secretary Shaw. 81 did it simply
to help the man get on his legs again

Tobacco In olden Times.

Master Prynne, the weak, well.
meaning puritan, who Is 1888 wrote
an attack upon the stage, tells us
that in his day tobacco pipes were
offered to ladies at the theater in lieu
of apples between the acts. A French
traveller, M. Torevin de Rochefort
who published his journal in 1877
confirms this by telling us that he
found smoking a general custom in
England, as well among women as
among men. Both sexes, he adds, held
that life without tobacco would be in.
tolerable, because they say it dissi.
pates the evil humors of the brain"
When ladies stopped smoking they
took to snuf. Women of quality about
a century ago would not stir without
their snuffboxes-beautiful enameled

their use of the streets, were begun
in the superior court in the name of

the judicial inquiry alleged that the
companies have exceeded their fran
chise rights by a substitution of cleo.
tricity for horse power as originally
granted and have thereby forfeited
their claim to the use of the streets.
The petition was presented to Judge
Chytraus and he ruled the defendants
to answer June 5.

Dispatch Says He Is Seriously
Wounded.

WASHINGTON-The state depart
ment received the following cable
gram from Toxic:
ut is stated in official reports that
in addition to the main fighting force
most of the secoud-class Russian
cruisers and subsidiary vessels were
destroyed, so that the whole Russian
fleet was practically annihilated. The
Russian cruisers Aurora and Almaz
were probably sunk. Attention is
called to the fact that the Japanese
torpedo operations were highly sue
cessful and that a majority of the
large Russian vessels were sunk as a
result of them. During the progress
of the battle there was considerable
mist and fog, which prevented a COM
prehensive report.
TOKIO-Rear Admiral Voeiler-
sham, who was commander of the bat
tleship suadron of the Russian fleet,
was killed the first day of the battle,
Ma 81, in the coming tower of his
flagship, the battleship Oslyabya, one

Rear Admiral Voeklersham was APP
pointed commander of the battleship
squadron of the Russian fleet in July
last and left Cronstadt August %. 1t
was Voelklersham squadron, according
to report, which fired on the British
trawlers in the North sea, mistaking
them for Japanese torpedo boats.
The serious wounds of Admiral Ro-
jestvensky, who was taken to Sasebo
on a Japanese battleship are bruise
on the forehead and Slight fracture
of the skull The nature of his in.
ternal injuries is not known. The
admiraIs temperature and pulse are
normal and there is no sign of brain
trouble. However, a dispatch from
Nagasaki is to the effect that he is
seriously wounded and that there is
little hope for his recovery.
Rough estimates made of the Rus
sian losses in the battle fought in the
Sea of Japan, exclusive of nearly
1000 prisoners, vary from 1000 to
5000. 1t is feared that the majority
persisted. Calculating on the compile
ments of the sunllen and captured
ships, 10 600 to 1000 men remain I'M
accounted for. 1t is possible that the
ships which escaped rescued some of
the members of the crews of the less
fortunate ships. Many bodies have
been washed ashore on the islands
and on the shores of the neighboring
coasts near the scene of the battle.
