While affirming that the qu'ok fir ing and flald guns of the Russians are auperior to tbe Japanese the war office explains that the misfortune In tbe Insufflgieooy of mountain guns la doe to the fact that when the war broke out Russia was Just adopting a now pattern.

Slace Judge Prince's election to the Judgeship I have retailed many amuilag Incidmts of our boyhood days Tbe future Julge bad a big Sense of honor and would fight for th< right, or wbat he conceived to he right, anywhere and at any time. 1 wonaer If be remembers knocking that fellow In tbe fao; who pulled bis pant against the calf of bis legs alter h* had atood before the blazing fire until tbe doth was hot eoouga to “burn bad?” In those deva the boys wore pantaloons, not these abominable things called kneebrltobes. Anu what great fires we had-with tbe fire place extending almost aero-a tbe end of the house. We warmed our 'bis cuits and meat by sticking tbem on sharpened sticks and holding In front of the ire, or over red-hot cosh. Does Prince remember pul ing bis meat out of tbe asbes when It tl pped off tbe stick? Future Judges and teachers had to have their luncb, ashes of no asbes. They had been taugbt at borne that hkkory a^bss were good for horses, and the youog Judge argued that they mlgnt be good for two-legged animals as well I guess they were. . * *r* lo ooe of our flihlng escape lea (ind I am not sure out that, we ran < ff without permission that time, as tbe stream was swollen) we were listed on a tree that leaned over the stream and not more than four or five f«.et b >ve the water. Catfish were biting ravenously and we were catching them rapidly. Suddenly sometbing carrie 1 tbe end of Prince's pole underneath tbe water and tugged at it viciously. Tbe young Judge bad no Idea of sur rendering that pole without a protest. he threw himself against It wltb as much determination as he has ever manifested In the defence of a client. After a brief struggle tbere appeared above the water a thlnlog, twisting, struggling eel. That wa? our first eel and must be “strung” sure. Sv< Prince drew tbe snake-like tblng to him and caught It in his hand<,<x peeling me to free tbe hook from 1 jj mouth and string it. He bad scarce ly taken bold of the aiipp ry thing before It liberated itself from tbe book and began to Blip through bis hands. That meant that In two a oonds the great pr z) would be bick In the water. What did the youthful Nim rod, tbe future Judge, do? Frlenus and fellow oiilzem, be Just nail d that eel wltb his teeth, and, with tbe thing wiithlrg and twisting ab ut blabead and face, ran iff that tiee out Into the ploughed ground where be could dlspaton him. Prlnoa said he didn't mind holding tbe thing In bis teeth, but be didn’t like tbe taste it left in his mouth. But tbe vie ory was wen—the eel was ours, and 1 think made a heap lighter tbe flogg log we got for going to tbe creek wii' o t, permission. No, Prince's college mates are not surprised tbat he Is Jur ge and they have no fear that the h u or and d g nloy of the State will siffr at hi* hands. In college he was a high- toned gentleman who despised little meannesses of whatever kind and cherished hig£ Idoala. HU class standing was always first cla'S, and bis lite p &ry society work- was superb. Indeed, I doubt whether Wtffotd has ever given to tbe world a stronger or more persistent debater. Wrtb blm, to discuss any question wltb his peers was a delight. Manning Smith used to say tbat Prince would discuss with anybody tbe question:. Which is tne top aide of a baitercake? and give his opponent ch ice of tbe sides. Last year Prinoe was app tinted special Judge fora term of Court at barn well. The Judge had two or three bumps on his bald head, not such as would annoy or delight phre nologlsts, but harmless little things tbe phydcUns call “wens.” With some friends tbe Judge was sitting one afternoon In tbe office of his hotel. An ardent admirer from the rojntry. armed' with a bottle of “Fuss X ” walked In and leaned against the clerk’s desk. When the conversation lulled the countryman Bald: “Jedgt!” Wbat Is It, my friend?” responded tbeJu ge. Jedge, I laks you.” Well,” said the Judge, wltb some embarrassment, “1 thank you for your good opinion of me. Yea, Jedge, I laks you—yea, sir, I laks your. rulln’s; but, Jedge, I want to tell you; you' air tbe fus Jedge I uver seed wltb horns on bis head.” The members of tbe Bar present enjoyed tbe Joke immensely, as did the Judge himself, but when tbe Judge returned to Anderson be bad himself dehorned.—Alumnus In South ern Christ 1 m Advocate.

Admiral Makban ff and M )las were drowned - in tbe sink ing of tbe battleship Petropavlovsk on April 13; Admiral WitgCfi met bix death in tbe fatal sortie of August 10 which was also tbe cause of Prinoe Ukhtomi-ky’s disgrace; and four ad mirals fell Into the hands of the Jap aoeso with the surrender of Port Ar thur.
