be obtained on military matters than
Taking your schooling from us YOU
have greatly improved on everything
that we taught"
The staff officer to whom the Prince
paid this high compliment was Gen.
Itel Kuroki, the now celebrated war;
rior who commanded the First Army
Corps in the war with Russia, and
who rendered such conspicuous SER
vice that Field MarshalOyama re-
fered to him as his strong right
arm"
Born sixty-two years ago In Sat
suma, the Sparta of Japan" Kuroki
at an early age entered the military
service OF the Mikado, and rose grade
by grade from the lower ranks, at
tanning in 1894 the rank of Lieut.
enant General. This was the year OF
Japan's war with China, and in that
conflict Kuroki commanded the Sixth
Division OF the invading army. 1t is
related that his division had been
scheduled to be the last one to be
embarked for the invasion of China,
and that Kuroki chafed so much over
the inaction that he fretted himself
diately the troops were landed and
the smoke of battle began to roll
from the front, all Of Kuroki's illness
vanished and he joyously exclaimed:
"Ah, this makes me we'll again"
From the very beginning of the
war with Russia, Kuroki halted the
worlds attention by the display Of
his military skill. Then 1t was that
people begun to inquire more closely
about this warrior whose military
genius shone resplendent. Efforts
were made to trace his origin, and
although the inquirers found little
assistance from the silent soldier, 1t
was finally ascertained that ne was
of Polish origin. A nephew Of tho
General. who was then pursuing his
studies in Europe, wrote letter in
which he said that Kuroki's father
was Polish nobleman who had fed
from Russia after the revolution Of
1881. This nobleman. whose name
was Kourowski. first went to Paris,
afterward to Turkey, later joining
the Holland troops in Borneo. From
Borneo he went to japan and there
married japanese. From the union
was born Kuroki, who because of the
nationality of his father, was nick
named "The Pole"
1t is said that the General is very
proud of his Polish origin, and that
he has always cherised the dying
wish Of the father that the son would
some day be able to take vengeance
on the Russians for their cruel treat
ment of unhappy Poland,
Koroki's part in the last great
battle Of the Russo-Japanese war,
that of Mukden, was that of a fierce
and vigorous attack upon the very
strong position that was held by the
Russian center, not with any hope OF
carrying 1t, but in order to force Ko-
ropatkin to carry out the movement
which ultimately led to his destruct-
ion

VIEWS OF REV. c. +. AKED.
An English Non-comformist of the
Most Pronounced Type.

The Rev. c. +. Aked, a lighting
parson." an English Nonconformist
of the most pronounced type, and
champion of the poor and do" ntrod-
den. and pastor of a "millionaire's
church." of which John ID. RocKe-
feller is a member, and his son,
John ID. Rockefeller, Jr., Trustee,
expresses his views In the following
remarks, says the New York Times.
MY passion has always been for
liberty" and to work for those who
are struggling for liberty"
Along these lines he represents an
advanced school of thought, and Is
cinsidered one of te foremost preach
ers of England. He is conspicuous as
reformer. He attacks municipal
questions and social vices, especially
intemperance. He was leader in the
Armenian movement in England and
one of the founders of the Passive
Resistance League, whose members,
as Nonconformists, refuse to pay the
tax imposed to support the teachings
of the Church of England In the
schools.
Mr.. Aked's desire for liberty of
speech in the Boer war extended even
to the point of riot and bodily vio-
lence. During the Matabele and
Mashona campaigns of 1893 he de-
rounced the English policy persis-
tently. Then came the Black Week"
of crushing defeat for the British in
the Transvaal. Mr. Aked announced
a lecture on the iniquity of the
British rule for the following Sun
day. TWO hundred policemen came
70 his Liverpool chapel to preserve
order. SO great was the excitement
that Mr.. Aked and his wife we're
forced to leave the building by
side door. A mob OF 1000 people
followed their carriage, tried to
wreck Mr. Aked's dwelling, and
shattered all the windows.
For five weeks Mr.. Aked persisted
in danouncing the Government. Tho
scenes were repeated each Sunday.
The police guard was increased to
500 The riots became a habit with
the people. The disorders finally
ceased when the clergyman agreed to
leave Liverpool for one Sunday.
Then the rioters were dispersed.
He is AZ years old, above medium
height, and with reddish-brown hair
and blonde mustache touched with
gray.

The merest chance turned him to
the ministry. He decided to go to
New Zealand. started with his mother

Mr.. Aked came to America it is
contended, to widen the sphere of his
work and In the hope that his health
would improve in the new land, He
told his friends in England that the
American millionaire Is grossly mis-
understood abroad. He did not ap-
preciate their piety before he met
them, he is quoted as saying, but
when he knew them better he ad-
mired the simplicity of their lives
and their desire to do good in the

Becoming Jewellery.

To insure beauty jewels must be
worn with regard to color, Take, for
instance. highly colored gems such
as rubies and sapphires.
They could not be worn with any
shade Of red. Soft colors should
always be selected in such cases
turQuoises, pearls or diamonds.
The woman with duh eyes must
never wear diamond earrings. for
these stones will make them duller.
The pearl softens the face more than
any other jewel.
Another stone which Is equally be-
coming Is the opal. A stone called
tonkinoise, which In pure blue,
makes sallow skin many shades
lighter.

CAREER OF GEN. KUROKI.
His admirable War Work In the Jap

1t was in 1884 that Prince of
Sweden, whose name history does
not reveal, visited japan as a guest
OF the nation. A graduate of the
military schools of Europe, the vlsi-
tor was reputed to be one of the lead
Ing Princes of his time in skill as
military strategist and tactician.
There was detailed as his escort a
quiot-spoken staff officer of the MIX
ado's army, man with the taciturn-
ity of a Grant and the face of
Sheridan. AS he was completing his
visit, the Prince turned to his escort
and said:

STEPS TO END
CAR SHORTAGE
American Railway Association Cam.
paign to Relieve Worry OF
Shippers Everywhere

Chicago. April "A Decisive ae-
tion Wis taken here today BY the
American Railway association 10
remedy The car shortage which for
several months has been causing 80
much worry among shippers through
oul he country. The failure of
some roads to furnish sufficient quo
ta OF equipment for their own traf-
lic and the failure TO provide and en-
force proper rules for the return OF
foreign ears 10 their own roads. are
responsible for The shortage and 10
remedy the evil the association to-
day adopted 4 rule, to be confirmed
later by letter ballot OF all the roads,
providing that any railroad which
hereafter shall not promptly return
to its owner after unloading all cars
consigned to ii. will be penalized So
for each car so misused, to be paid
TO the owner of the car This pen
atty is in addition to the per diem
charge OF 30 cents which, after July
/, each road must pay for each car
not its own, which may be on It's
lines
In order to make the new rule
more effective. the principle of pub
licity is TO be invoked through the
instrumentality of the so-called car
clearing house recently established
in Chicago.
Through the new rule the chair
man Of the clearing house committee
is now authorized to send to each OF
the roads statement comprising the
information already collected as 10
the car location, percentage Of equip
ment on line, OF total owned aud un-
filled car orders. This, the associa-
ton believes, will enable each rail
rosd in the country to know exact
ly which lines are delinquent in the
matter Of furnishing adequate cars
or failing TO return cars To their
home lines.
