An Associated Press dispatch from Mladivostock says: A fleet of five Japanese battle ships and two cruisers ‘appeared of this place at 1:25 o'clock this (Sunday) afternoon ind bombard. ed the town and shore batteries for ‘Aitty-five minutes. ‘The fleet approached from the dl- rection of Askold island at the east entrance of Ussuri bay, and about ‘32. miles southeast of Viadivostock. Entering: Ussurt bay the enemy form ed in line of battle, but did not ap- proach a closer range than § 1-3 miles. ‘Whey directed their fire against the shore batteries and the town, but no damage resulted, az most of thelr 200 lyddite shells fatled to burst. ‘The Russian battery, commanded by Generals Veronetz and Artamoff, did not reply, awaiting a closer approach of the enemy. : ‘The Japanese fire ceased at 2:20 Pp. m, and the enemy retired tn the direction of Askold island. S{multa. neously the torpedo boat destroyers appeared near Askold ‘Island, and two more near Cape Miadel. =~ The Japaneso ships were covered with Ico. “'The.attack resulted in no loss to the Russiags, dut cost the enemy 200,000 roubles ($100,000) In ammunition. Bost of the projectiles were six and twelveinch shells, The population of Viadivostock was warned in the early morning of the presence on the horizon of a hostile fleet and the prospect of an attack during the day, but it remained tran- quill, Interest now centers on the probs- Bie encounter between the Russian Viadivostock fleet, comprised of the czar’s four finest cruisers and several torpedo boats and destroyers, and the Japanese squadron which has jyst bombarded Vladivostock. A cable te velved Saturday night states that the report that the Russian squadron was not in Viadivostock March 1 is correct” ‘When last seen it was off Usulle bay. VICEROY WIRES REPORT. A communteation from Viveroy Al- exieff to the czar from Ukden, bearing Sunday's date, says: : “I most humbly inform your majes- Yy that the commandant at the for- tress at Viadivostock reports at 8:50 this morning seven vessels were sight- ‘Sd south of Askold island. At 9:45 they were seen to be warships mak- Ing for Askold island. About noon the enemy's, squadron was midway between tho ‘coast and Askold island, making for Ussuri bay. They were ‘ut of reach of the shore batteries, At 1:80 the enemy opened fire. Two vessels In the squadron were probably the first-class cruisers Idzum and Ya- koro, buf the names of the other Yessels are unknown.” RUSSIAN FLANK MENACED. ~ News has reached St, Potersbure that the 2,500 Japanese troops who landed at Plaksin bay are advancing towardy Musan with the inteation ot reaching Hunchun, and threatening tho Russidn flank. To checkmato this move: a Russlan outpost, 1,500 atrong, is advancing to occupy Koyr- young, on the Tumen river. BATTLES OF CRAP SHOOTERS, Five Negroes Killed and Two Fatally Wounded In Gambling Rows. Five negroes were Killed and two mortally wounded tn the Daddsvilte nelghborhood, in Sunflower counts, Miss., Saturday night, as the result of quarrels growing out of crap games. ‘The killings occtirred In two, differ ent igealities and the county author. tles are unable to find clews to the parties responstble for the carzival of crime, as Qter fifty negroes "partict- piled fn! the fights and fully on hua: -dred shets,weresfired: -_ me RUSSIAN CHARGES Japan Addresses Note to the Powers Setting Forth Her Grievances and Explain- ing Her Actions. » Japan addressed a note to the pow: ers Friday in response to the recent communication from Russla, The note hag not been published In Tokio and its contents are unknown. Russia's varlous commuunications to the powers attacking Japan for its conduct of diploriatic negotiations be- fore thelr rupture, for Its attack upon Russia without declaration of war and for its alleged violation of the neutral- ity of Korea have been recelved in Japan largely In the spirit of amase- ment, . The Japanese resent what is alleged to be a deliberate attempt to place them in a false position regarding cer- tain Incidents, but In the main do not take the correspondence seriously, Re- sponding to the charge of violating the neutrality of Korea they point to the action of Rugsla in Manchuria, where thousands, of troops were assembled long before a diplomatic rupture oc- curred. They say that they are fally prepared to accept tho judgment of the power on a comparison of thelr course in. Korea, where they landed troops only after a state of war exiet- ed, and-upon the written permission of the emperor of Korea. They deny that Chemulpo was a neutral pot after the Japanese land- ed on February 8, but whether it was neutral or belligerent, Russia began hostilities there. When the Russian gunboat Korletz steamed out of the harbor of Chemulpo on the afternoon of February 8, she opened fire on tha Japanese squadron, making the open- ing shot of the war The Japanese guns did not respond, but the Japan- ese torpedo boat destroyers answered the fire and discharged two torpedoes before the Korletz retired. Pho Japanese are confident of the Justice and strength of thelr original Position in the integrity of China, and the fairness of thelr proposal during the negotiations. They feel fully Justified In commencing hostilities af ter breaking off. diplomatic relations and serving notice of tneir intention to take independent action. They are sure thelr recent assurances that they had no intention of taking possession ef Chinese territory ang would guar antee the integrity and independencs | of Korea will bo accepted by the powers, FIVE KILLED IN BOMBARDMENT. Oficial dispatches received at St. | Petersburg concerning the bombard ment of Vladivostock by a Japanese | fleet Sunday afternoon do not mention any Russian losses, but private ad- vices say that five were killed—four saflorseand the wife of an engineer. It is apparent the Japanese were afrald to risk exposing thelr ships to the plunging fire of the land batteries, and it is considered probable.that the attuck was really for the purpose of drawing the fire of the Russian forts, compelling, the Russians to discose the position and calibre of thelr guns and also for the® purpose of ascertaining whether tle Russlan squadron was’ im port, LEFT To ITS OWN DEFENSES. ‘The greatest. consternation was caused In St Petersburg Saturday night by the publication of a procla- mation issuod by tho admiral in com- mand at Vladivostok, the terms of which made it clear that Viedivostok, lke Port Arthur, is to be left to its own defenses.

"I felt so weak and sick that I felt sure that I could not survive the order, and so I told him that I would not undergo it. The following week I read an advertisement in the paper of your Vegetable Compound in such an emergency, and so I decided to try it. Great was my joy to find that I actually improved after taking two bottles, so I kept taking it for ten veeches, and at the end of that time I was cured.

There is going on at the present time a steady advance in the strength of the metal used in guns. The elastic strength of metal now commonly used in larger guns is about 50,000 pounds per square-inch, and in the smaller guns it runs as high as 75,000 pounds per square inch. This, however, is used only as an additional margin of safety, largely because the recoil of guns when fired is so great now and the reaction thereby set up in the carriage is so severe that nothing would be gained by lightening the gun. Lightening the gun would only mean putting additional weight, and perhaps a weight greater than that saved in the gun-carriage and foundation. Many are of the opinion that the advance in the strength of gun steel should be pushed further, but it would be hard to do this without lowering to some extent the elongation asked for in the metal at rupture. This now runs in the neighborhood of eighteen to twenty-five percent, and it could wisely be lowered for the sake of gaining a harder and stronger metal, because the entire operation of the gun is within its elastic limit. When it moves outside of this and becomes permanently enlarged, a comparatively slight enlargement would give warning, and the gun would be laid aside and not used any more.—Scientific American. What James G. Blalne Said. James G. Blaine once said: "The farmers of the republic will control its destiny. Against the storms of popular frenzy, against frenzied madness that seeks collision with established order, against the spirit of anarchy that would sweep away the landmarks and safeguards of Christian society and republican government, the farmers of the United States will stand as a shield and bulwark, themselves the willing subjects of law." To strengthen this bulwark is the work of the grange. If the quoted remarks are true, then the work of the grange appeals to the patriotism of all.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure it, it became incurable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from europa to teaspoonfuls and then given to surfaces of the system.

Many a girl has regained her faded beauty, many a matron has lengthened the days of her comely appearance by using Peruna. Peruna produces clean mucous membranes, the basis of facial symmetry and a perfect complexion. The women have not been slow to discover that a course of Peruna will do more toward restoring youthful beauty than it has done before. While it is true that Peruna cures catarrh wherever located, yet it is advisable for everyone to use Perunua as a preventive ALABA The Only Sanitary and Pe LABASTINE is not a disease-breeding a lodgment and harbor-ground for composition, in white and many exquisite for use by simply mixing with cold we ALABASTINE cements to walls, distroy it or scales.

New Jersey street, Indianapolis, Ind., writes: "I think I must have been troubled with catarrh ever since I was very young, aggravated each time I caught a cold. This did not prove sufficiently serious to be obnoxious until last winter. Then my head and nose were so stopped up that I felt I must do something. Peruna was recommended to me by a friend. I used it for four weeks, and found to my rotten that it cured me. I have not had a bit of trouble since. My head is clear, and I can safely affirm that Peruna cured me."—Miss Flora Hauser. Hundreds of Women Cured by Pe-ru-na of Amoving Catarrh. DR. HARTMAN has probably done more than any other physician toward popularizing a means of escape from the facial deformities, such as watery eyes, twisted nose, offensive breath, dry cracked lips, due to the ravaging effects of catarrh. He has made chronic catarrh a life-long study. His remedy, popularly known as Peruna, is the most famous remedy for catarrh. Probably there is not a man or woman, boy or girl, within the bounds of the United States that has not heard of Peruna. By far the largest majority have used Peruna. A large number of people that have been cured of chronic catarrh by using Peruna can never be known. IT WON'T RUB OFF ALABASTINE the Durabale Wall Coating, Won't Rub Off; WHY?

For a number of years I had pain in my head around my eyes, and I thought it was because my eyes needed treatment, so I wanted to an oculist and had glasses fitted to my eyes and wore them for some time, but felt no relief whatever. In fact, I felt worse than before, and came to the conclusion that the trouble was not with my eyes, but with my head and that it must be catarrh. As so many of my friends had used Peruna with benefit for this trouble, I thought I would try it. I was not sorry that I did so, for in a short time I began to improve, and in four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition, my general health was much improved and all the catarrh of the head was gone.
