OespoiIers

LONDON. April 2.-Just as Mon tenegro scored the first real success by getting d foothold in Tarabosch, the key to Scutari. the warships of the powers were gathering along the coast to compel her to give up the most precious fruits of five months fighting.
 After d series of desperate en- agreements the Montenegrins. as sisted by the Servians are practically in command of Tarabosch. Smulta = neous with the arrival of this news came the information that Austrian warshipS were anchored off Antivari, and that British and Italian war ships were on their way to join them for the purpose of making q demon stration which is approved by all the powers. not even excepting Russia
 Should the demonstration prove in effective. it is said the Montenegrn ports of Antivari ard Dulcigno will be occupied.
 When the Montenegrin trouble is out of the way it is likely the powers will have to deal with Servia. Servia informed the British minister it was impossible to withdraw her troops from Scutari. as Servia is bound to Montenegro until peace is signed, and any drawing back at the present time will be the death llnell of the Balkan alliance. Servia too. is reported to be preparing for the permanent occu- patton of Durazzo This action will be directly contrary to the decision oi the powers
 Elsewhere, matters are moving smoothly. An agreement has prac- tically been reached in regard to the boundary between Turkey and Bull garia. although Bulgaria is guarding against any slip in the peace nego- tiations. by moving virtually the whole of the Adrianople army tC Tcha talja The captured town wifi be left in the possession of Gen darmes.

CETTINJE. April 2.-The great Tarabosch fort, which for months has held the allies off from Scutari, is now practically in the hands of the Montcnegrins, thanks to the sacri- flee of two hundred bomb throwers every one of whom lost his life in a last desperate effort to clear the way to the town for the possession of which the MOntenegrins were ready to give up everything
 The bomb throwers were picked men. chosen from several battalions Clambering up the mOuntainside un- der murderous fire from the Turk lsh guns, they cut the wire entangIe- mcnts. and getting at close quarters threw their bombs among the Turks thus opening the way to the storm ing party. Not one of the bomb throWers returned, but they accom- plished their object. and the Montene- grin infantry following closely upon them charged the trenches.
 The Turks held their ground. and desperate bloody hand to hand fight ensued. lasting an hour and ending in a victory for the Montene- srins, who lost three hundred killed and wounded.
 Tier after tier of entrenchments had ,o be taken bat tine troops of the southern division under General MaltinovitCh to whom the task was assigned. overcame all obstacles
 Tactics followed particularly in re- gard to the use of the bomb throw CTS, were similar to those adopted at the capture of Adrianople. But in the advance on Adrianople the soldiers who cut and divided the wire entanglements surrounding the forts. were clad in cuirasses and provided with shields.
 At TaraboSch the rough mountain side made it necessary for the Mon tenegrins to dispense with all inn pediments.

Much Relief Needed

INDIANAPOLIS. April 2.--Hundreds of thousands of dollars are needed to relieve the suffering among the flood refugees in Indianapolis accord ing to a report of the general relief committee made public today. Three thousand families lost all or part of their house furnishings, and an av- craze of at least one hundred dollars will be required for each family. Hundreds of men are needed to clear away the filth left by the flood
 Plans of raising money, to be made available immediately to the suffer CTS were discussed and it was de- cided to start popular subscriptions and designate places for receiving contributions.
 We are not guessing at these sta tistics,'' said Joseph .. Schaf. one of the investigators on the committee. The flood victims are helpless and need money and need it immediately. The men are trying to hold their jobs and let the women clean up their homes. The latter is a disheartcning task for which many of the women are not physically fitted. Give them money immediately so they can dis card their water soaked belongings. That will give them new heart Appeals from other cities in the state poured in on Governor Ralston | today.

HAVE SEA SERPENT AT LAST
misunderstanding Monster of the Deep
Reported Captured Alive By
Fishermen of Messina.

According to the Messina CORE
sDondent of the Courriere di Milan, the
inevitable e serpent has at last been
captured alive by fishermen while it
was heading along the shore in the
wake of al English yacht.
The correspondent, however, has not
personally seen the monster, although
he states that he is on his way up the
coast to do so. Meanwhile, he makes
the facetious remark that from the de-
tailed descriptions which he has re
ceived English tourists in Italy may
favor the view that it may possibly
be Sir Rider Haggard's East Anglican
sea serpent taking a holiday in a
warmer cline.
These details proclaim that the ter
rified fisherfolk at Tremestieri found
the monster caught in their nets n
morning, and after infinite trouble
succeeded in landing him. This en-
ormous and horrible denizen Of thu
deep weighs, it is estimated, about 600
pounds. has a prominent back, meas
ures nine feet eight inches across the
body, which is taller than a man and
terminates in a tail of even greater
length, which is long and curled up
like hat of a pig"
Its average thickness is about TWEEN
ty inches, its head seems TO be form
ed of two huge earlike fins set some
four inches aptrt, in the midst of
which are it's eyes. 1t has a rectan-
gular mouth four inches wide, while
along under its body are half a 2ozen
apertures evidently used for breathing
purposes. The skin is said to be fine
and soft, and the color of that of
human beings, although marked here
and there by mole-like spots"
The Messina correspondent serious
ly adds that a number of scientific ex-
perts have hurried to the spot and are
absolutely dumbfounded and quite I'M
able to classify the creature, which is
kept alive in a small inlet on the
beach of Tremestieri by the entrance
being staked off.

TOO ELABORATE A SYSTEM
Mr.. Spieoelhausen's Idea of Posta
CARDS, However, Worked Very
Well for a Time.

Mr.. Spiegelhausen found it hard to
remember at home certain things he
had thought of in business hours, and
conversely matters that occurred to
him at night would escape his mind
before he reached the Office next
morning. After trying various I'm
successful methods of memory cult
walton, he hit on the plan OF writing
postal cards to himself and address
ing them to the other place from
which ever he happened to be in at
the moment. Thus the last mail
would bring to the house Il or more
cards with such a memo. scrawled
upon it: Remind Mrs. S. to give
coal TO cleaner" n vice versa
the first mail downtown would re-
mind him: See j. T. w. in re- thou
sand lot umbrella canes"
For a time this served the purpose,
but presently his precise and farsee-
ing mind began to anticipate and
work more and more in advance, so
that on a Monday night he would
mail a card from home saying: B
sure to send card from Office tomor-
row to remind yourself of dinner en-
gagement Tuesday" Then he got to
down appointments on postal
cards a whole week ahead, sending
other cards to warn himself when to
drop them in the letter box, and final
ly his harassed brain refused to work
any longer on such a strain.
One evening his wife asked him
whether he had thought to attend to
The season tickets for the opera, and
he replied with a sheepish attempt at
.aughter: Il suppose that was on the
pile Of cards on my desk this morn
ng. l saw the pcstman bring them,

The aurora %borealis. or northern
lights, apparently affects the wireless
telegraph waves that pass between
Hammerfest, Norway, and the north
ernmost station in the world at Green
Harbor, Spitsbergen. Often the polar
light so weakens the wireless waves
that the operator in the receiving-sta.
ton at Spitsbergen can hardly hear
them. and at times communication is
wholly interrupted. On the other hand,
the appearance Of the northern lights
seems to strengthen the waves that
are sent southwark. Once, when the
aurora was SO bright in S~pitsbergen
that it was mentioned in a dispatch
TO Norway, the receiving operator at
Hammerfest, when the polar light was
not visible, noticed an extraordinary
increase in the volume and distinct
ness of the signals.

MARRIED AND DIDN'T KNOW IT
New Indian Agent Got Into Predica.
ment Through Ignorance of a
Native Custom.

On the old Rosebud Indian reserva-
ton, in South Dakota, they still
laugh over the peculiar p~redicament
into which a new Indian agent once
got himself.
The agent, al unqualified tender
foot was inspecting an Indian school
Noticing that as soon as he entered
the room every girl present brought
her hair forward over her face. he
asked the teacher to tell them to
throw it back SO that he might see
their faces. But this they refused to
do, until. after much urging. one girl
did finally Uncover her face.
After school was over. the agent
wondered at the strange actions of the
girl who had uncovered her face. She
followed him to his house. entered
after him, and set about getting his
dinner. AS he spoke no Sioux. and
she no English, he could get no ex-
PLANTATION from her.
Finally, to his relief. the teacher
rode up. Shaking with laughter. he
asked the agent how he fixed his new
wife! Then the latter understood
what he had done. In certain tribes
of the Sioux Indians all a man needs
do in order to get a wife is to induce
a girl to her face. The agent
had proposed in the usual way-and
been accepted.
In vain did the agent plead that he
already had a wife in the east; there
was only one way to get out of it.
1t cost him the equivalent of fourteen
ponies to persuade the Indian girls
to take her back again.

What Alaskan Dogs Eat.

Dogs in Alaska, when on TIE trail,
are fed once a day, after the days
work is done. They are never fed in
the morning. for if they were they
would be lazy all day, or, what is
more probable, would vomit W their
breakfast soon after they got on the
trail. Dogs, to work well, must be
well fed, and it is false economy to
underfeed a dog. They are fed on a
variety of foods. including rice, tai
low, corn meal and fish. If rice or
corn meal forms a part of their food
it must be cooked. Some men prefer
to feed their dogs OF bacon or fish,
thus doing away with cooking. Cook
ed food Is cheaper and more fatten-
ing than raw feed, but the question
as to whether dogs caE work better
on cooked or uncooked food is n
that will never be settled SO long as
there are 'mushers' to argue the
question.

NOGI ORDERED TO MARRY
Japanese Hero Took Bride Practically
at the Command of His Su-
perior Officer.

The Countess Nogi was a oma no
less remarkable in many ways than
her famous husband. The aircumstan-
ces of her marriage with Nogi, when
he was a brilliant young officer. are
unusual in the extreme, especially in
Japan.
She was the daughter Of Sadayoki
Yoji, and one day she was sitting in
the window of her fathers house in
Tokyo watching the troops march
past, when she saw a gallant young
officer in command and Immediately
fell in love with him. Her father
found it out and found out who the
officer was, and later Nogi was ap-
preached to bring about a match.
He would not hear of it, as he had
dedicated his life to the nation and did
not intend to marry. But the young
lady would not endure this attitude,
and her father approached one of the
high officers, a superior of Nogi's, and
this officer fell in with the idea at
once, saying the match would be most
suitable and it was just what Nogi
should do.
The word was given from above to
the young officer. and Nogi practically
married Miss Yoji at the command of
his superior off GER. The union turned
out to be an ideal one, as the subse-
quent history of the pair and their two
brave sons has proved. The Count and
Countess Nogi are regarded by the ma
ton as the most exemplary couple that
could be found anywhere. She was
every inch as much a Samurai as he
was.-Tokyo correspondence of Lon

become sort of paralyZed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
