Joe was the name of servant EN-
ployed for many years by Clarence
King, the eminent geologist. Joe's life
was evidently in his work, and he
Judged of all things In the world by
their relations to it. In "King's Mem
oirs" this anecdote OF Joe's point of
view Is given:
At gentleman's country seat, with
good servants accommodations, ample
facilities for backing boots and brush
Ing clothing, well trimmed lawns and
genteel society, Joe was In paradise,
but experience In the muddy or dusty
wilderness half paralyzod his useful
ness and wholly qucnchcd his enjoy
ment.
On one occasion, attended by this
man only, King made his way to the
Grand Canyon Of the Colorado and
stood for time dumb upon its brink,
overwhelmed by the vastness and the
glory Of the scene. At last 1t seemed
to him that he must speak, and MS he
turned away he said:
well, Joe, how does 1t strike you?"
TITS no place for gentleman, SIR"

Letter to l.. Raphael

Dear Sir: Clothing is just like
paint; 1t fits or it don't; it wears
or it don't, turns weather and
water or not? and goes out of
fashion.
What do we wear clothes for?
Did you ever think of it? Differ
ent persons have different reasons,
no doubt, but one paints Devoe
for beauty, to be in the fashion,
and keep-out water.
Fashion says paint; we all
paint. There is beauty in paint /;
we paint good deal for that.
And buildings are costly and
fashionable; put-on a waterproof
two or three coats of paint, and
your buildings last as long as you
keep them dry. 1t costs nothing
to paint; it coste your buildings
not to.
Devoe is the paint that lasts ;
disappointing paints are the
paints that cost.
Yours truly

BATTLE OF SEA OF JAPAN.
Togo Names Engagement--Prisoner.
 Will Esceed 5000.

Tokio, May 30-1:S0 p. m. delayed in ltransmission) .-Admirai Togo, tele- graphing to-day, says:
 "The naval battle fought from the afternoon of May P to May 2S in the vicinity of Okino Island, and extending | to the 0rleung Island, is called the na- wal battle of the Sea of Japan"
 The Russian prisoners, Admiral Togo says, will exceed 5000.
 Tokio, May 31--1 D. m.-Admiral Togo reports that all the captured ships sent 1 to Sasebo have arrived and that their crews have been landed. 1 Admiral Rojestvensky has entered the naval hospital. The report that Vice-Admira1 Enquist was captured proves to have been a mistake, caused by the misinterpretation of wireless telegraph messages.
 | Admiral Togo also reports that two Russian hospital ships, which accom- panied Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet l into the Straits of Korea on May 27, were suspected of a violation of The Hague convention, and besides, owing to the great necessity for strategic pro- l tection, he detained them temporarily and conveyed them to Sasebo on May I2S. ! By direction of the emperor Admiral Ito has instructed Admiral Togo to al- How Vice-Admira1 Nebogatoff and other Russian officers to transmit a report of the battle and a list of casualties and prisoners to the Emperor of Russia. l The officers of the battleships Orel and Nicholas I. and the coast-defense ships Admiral Apraxin and Admiral i Seniavin are to be permitted to return to Russia on giving their paroles
 The damage to the Japanese fleet, Admiral Togo says, was slight. Only three torpedo boats were lost. No war ships or destroyers were sunk.
 The emperor has issued the following rescript to Admiral Togo:
 Our combined fleet encountered the enemy's fleet in the Korean strait and after several days desperate battle an- initiated it, accomplishing an unprece- dented feat.
 i've are glad that by the loyalty of our officers and men we have been en- abled to respond to the spirits of our ancestors.
 Though the war be long, we hope that you will be loyal and brave, and secure successful result.''
 To the navy the emperor issued the following rescript:
 "Our navy, with the best strategy and greatest courage, annihilated the enemy's squadron and answered our hopes. We appreciate deeply your splendid success"

{ tiations looking for peace in the exist
 ing circumstances would be acceptable
 to the czar's government. President Roosevelt is keeping in close touch
 with the situation and is willing, as he has been for many months, to take the initiative in peace negotiations should a favorable opportunity be presented. AdVices received to-day indicate that the Russian government has under con- sideration the entire war situation, in the light of the result of the battle of
 Tsushima, but the advices do not con-
 vey even suggestion of the future &C.,
 tion of the St. Petersburg government.
 It is regarded as likely that the Rus
 sian government may convey to the United States and the other powers, either through it's ambassadors or through the medium of the French government, it's determination reached after thorough consideration.
 It is expected that Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador, will soon have a.
 conference. with President Roosevelt, | but no engagement has yet been made for the conference The nature of the conference will depend in great degree upon the information and instructions which Count Cassini will receive from
 his government. While the president has dismissed in
 formally the subject of peace negotia- tions with members of his cabinet and with some representatives of foreign
 governments at this capital, and in the
 near future, probably will take up the matter with others, it can be said au-
 thoritatively that no definite steps
 looking toward peace yet have been taken by this government. That such steps may be taken is regarded as
 quite likely, but whatever action may
 be taken will depend upon information
 not yet in hand a.... .,.
 That concerted effort on the part of several important powers, including the
 United States to bring about a cessa-
 tion of hostilities in the Far East may
 be made very soon is reasonably cer- tain. The result of such an effort is 1 quite another matter. It is regarded as too soon yet after the great naval
 battle, for Russia to determine upon a definite course of action. At lease
 until the St. Petersburg government lshall have indicated what its desires
 may be, the probabilities are regarded
 as favorable only to an informal discus sion of peace.

FANTASTIC POLITICIANS.
Japanese statesman's View of Report
 That Japan Wants Philippines.

That Japan Wants Philippines.
 Berlin, May 31.-The Brussels cores spondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung in an interview with MT. Kato, the Jap- anese minister to Belgium, called to his attention American dispatches alleging that there was concern in the United States left Japan would undertake the seizure of the Philippine islands. The minister replied that there was not tic slightest justification for such a view.
 II share the view ct my government and of every Japanese" said Minister Kato, Fin asserting that we desire no better neighbor in the Philippines than the United States. Moreover, our trade has received the greatest advantage from the American occupation of the Philippines. We esteem the American people highly for their liberalism and activity and have always maintained the best relations with them
 Japan will never pursue a policy of expansion, and anyway they are fam tastic politicians who attribute to us such ends. We began the war with Russian in self-defense What we need is a permanent peace which will give us the possibility of developing within our own borders"
 MT Kato expressed his personal be- lief that Russia will continue the war and that the next stage of Japans operations will be at Vladivostok. Jap- anese generals and admirals, he added, will have more to say in fixing peace conditions than will the diplomatists.

STILL QUIET IN CHICAGO.
U. S. Court Has Jurisdiction over Bills
 for Injunctions.

Chicago, May 31.-Judge Kohlsaat, of the United States circuit court, to-day decided that the federal courts have jurisdiction over the bills for injunc- tions brought by the express companies against the striking teamsters. The at torneys for the teamsters denied that the federal court has Jurisdiction over such bills, basing their contention on the declaration that the express com Ipanies are not engaged in interstate commerce. @.. union, appeared before the grand jury this afternoon and was questioned for two hours. He told the story of the working of the international and local Iteamsters' unions. When questioned as to his knowledge of the alleged
 blacklist maintained by the express companies against the tsamsters he was unable to tell anything definite. President Shea was also asked regard ling conferences between labor leaders
 and employers, but in this direction his evidence was unimportant. He denied any conspiracy on the part of the labor leaders and insisted that much of the trouble that had taken place in the streets had been caused by the detec- tives and other representatives of the
 Employers association to excite sym-
 pathy against the strikers.
 The strike was quiet to-day. There
 were a few fights, but in none of them
 was any one seriously injured. The ouIv increase to the number of strikers
 consisted of the twelve teamsters enl-
 ployed by the Weaver Coal company, who went out when ordered to make deliveries to the American Express company.
