KUROKIAT LEAVENWORTH
The japanese General and His Party
Inspect the Post.

T,eavenvorth. Kan, June 5.-Gen-
eral Baron Kuroki and party left for
st. Paul in their special train over the
Burlington railway last evening after
a day spent at Fort LeavenWorth.
From ST. Paul they will return to Jap
an via Seattle. The day mere lncluoeo
a reception rendered by General Z. u.
Hail. commandant of the fort and oth-
er OFFICERS; luncheon, a review of all
the troops at the garrison lncluolng
heavy batteries, field artillery ana IN
fantry, and an inspection of the army
service schools and the post In gen
eral General Kurokt took great in
terest in the maneuvers- Great CROWDS
of people gathered in the city from
nearby points and the VISITORS were
cheered wherever they went.
1t was plain that General kurok1,
the most famous fighting OFFICER or
Japan today, had come to see ana 10
learn He stood quietly-almost mo-
tionIess-but the eyes were never still
Small. dark and penetrating, they
shone with the CLEAN of hidden in
tellectual strength and purpose. one
could almost imagine General Kurok
looking Just that way, except for the
plain business suit, as he stood before
headquarters at the battle OF Lao
Yang or on the eve of the fierce fight
at the Yalu river. When he and the
party of officers of the imperial army
who came to this country as the guests
of the United States at the jamestown
exposition, return to Japan soon, they
will take back with them a great fund
of information about American in
stitutions. For after all the purpose
of the japanese visitors is to see and
to learn. That was apparent in their
visit at Fort Leavenworth.
1t was interesting to watch General
Kuroki during the carefully conduct
ed review of troops at Fort Leayen-
worth. From the moment he left the
car until the moment that the review
began this keen eyed little man spoke
scarcely two dozen words to anyone.
He was too busy watching. General
Kuroki has one hobby-artillery. 1t
was the artillery that made Port Arth-
ur untenable for the Russians and
paved the way for success in many
other battles. General Kuroki's opin-

$50 WERE CONVERTED.
Result of a Three Weeks Revival a
Beloit.

Beloit, June 5.-The recent three
weeks religious revival here, conducted
in large tent by noted evangelists, re-
suited in the conversion of $50. 1t was
the largest and most successful revival
ever conducted in this section of the
state, and many of the business men
and representative citizens OF Belo1t
took an active interest. All will admit
that it has done great good. The local
ministers of the city will continue the
good work Another great good it has
helped to accomplish: Beloit is freer
from saloons today than the town has
been for years, and her law-abiding peo-
pie believe the law has come to stay.
The music-loving people of Beloit
have concluded to hold musical con-
test here in October, the week of the
Mitchell county fair. There is musical
talent here and the friends favorable TO
such are literally subscribing funds to
make it a success. An elaborate pro-
gramme will be printed later. Such an
event will result in great good for Be
lott.
and under the auspices of her superb
fire department they have secured
Parker's Amusement shows for the
week of June 10.
Beloit collects $225 annually from the
operation of fifteen billiard tables. Four
separate halls are in operation. The
rules governing halls of this kind are
rigidly enforced so far as Beloit is con-
cerned.
Capt w H. Mitchell, mayor of Beloit,
has in his office his old Harper's Ferry
musket he carried and helped fight the
Battle of Bull Run, in 1861. The old
musket stands in a corner of his office,
well preserved and there is every rea-
son why it shouldn't remain there, for
the people of Beloit are too law-abiding
to ever call his musket into active use
again.
The travelling men will be glad to
know that Mr.. and Mrs. j. L. Custer
have released the popular Avenue hotel
for another year, and that the owner,
D. A Freeman. has concluded to re-
model it throughout this year Steam
heat and electric lights will be put in,
and many other improvements will be
made. which will continue to make the
Avenue hotel as popular as in former
years. Mr. and Mrs. Custer are pleas
ant hotel people, and not only the people
Beloit but their host of friends wher-
