While Gen. Kuropa:k'n has appar

artillery than seemed possible, his

Gen. Kuropatkin admits that 1,19
ficers and 46,931 men are not re
>onding to roll calls. This is rathe
igue. It may or may not includ
te thousands of wounded who hav
!en sent north, and again it may no
clude the losses suffered by th
ird army, with which the comman
!r-in-chief was not in communica
:n for some time. The figures giv
i by the Japanese war office appea
ore reasonable, namely 40.000 priq

'sses. therefore, total over 1oo,oo
en. or more than one-third of ih
hole army. The fact that the Japa
ase report the capture of only sixt:
mns indicates that Kuropatkin at th
st moment succeeded in sending
msiderable portion of his artiller;
>rthward on the railway.
The Japanese losses up to thi
orning were reported at 41.222. no
chuding the army which pushe'

Ofnicial Russia is determined to 'car
on the war, and St. Petersburg re

e mobilization of more troops. Thi
ay prove a diffcult task with th
mper of the Russian people in it
esent condition. There is still hop
St. Petersburg that Russia can ex

onths there has been talk of th
tobilization of an army on the Si

Harper's Weekly.
Alfred H. Love of Philadelphia,
president of the Universal Peace Un
ion, was talking on the topic, pecu
liarly congenial to him, of kinditess.
Said he:
"I once knew a remarkably kind
boy. He was a great angler. There
was a trout stream in his neighbor
iood that ran through a rich man's
state. Permits to fish the stream
ould now and then be obtained, and
e boy was lucky enough to have a
"One day he was fishing with an
thecr hoy when a gamekeeper sud
il'. dartedi forth from a thicket.
he !ad with the permit ut-ered a cry
f fright. droped his rod. and ran off
t top speed. The gameckeeper pur
sed.
"For about half-mile the game
eener was led a swift and difficult
base. Then, worn out, the boy halt
d. The man seized him by the arm
nd said between pants:
"'Have you a permit to fish on this
state?'
"'Yes, to be sure,' said th eboy
uietly.
"'You have? Then show it to me.'
"T'he boy drew the permit from his
ocket. The man examined it and
rowned in perplexity and anger.
"'Why did you run when you had
his permit?' he asked.
"'To let the other boy get away,'
wts the reply. 'He didn't have
ione!' '
Wihile the rich must pass in their
hcks, the poor are always with us.
If a man is looking for an easy job
ie has no time for anything else.
Paradoxical though it may seem,
's the idle tongue that works over
ime.
A progressive man is one who has
the ability to stand still when others
are going backward.
A man can afford to declare that
noney isn't everything if he has more
of it than he knows what to do with.
