word. The general staff declares that
it is oertain that Field Marshal Oyama
has been compelled to re^nqulab the
idea of pursuit la force for tbe pres
ent. The Japanese forces on the Bus-
Man flanks are too. light to constitute
a serious danger and a lull In hea?y
fighting for several weeks, If not
months, la predicted
Stung by the wholesale criticism
heaped upon the waroffloe for its un
prepared ne« and Incapacity In provid
ing tbe Mancburla^army with men,
guns and munition*', - 'the army organ
lays bare what has been doqc since tbe
opening cf borilitles, giving exact flg-
ures which «bow that up to March 12
tbe war • flB v had d'aoatehrd 13.087
officers, 761,467 men, 146,408 h'lrses,
1,621 guns and 316 321 tons of muni
tions sed supplies t < tbe front, dedar-
intr that transportation strained the
Siberian railroad to tbe utmost caps
olty.
The army organ admit* that tbe
army in the far Bait wh>n tbe war
opened was hardly worthy tbe name
fno figures belrg given, but*It la known
that tbe troops did not exceed 00,-
000), d^fonding Ibis on tbe ground
that Emperor Nicholas desired to
avoid war and therefore refrained from
aendiog reinforcements which surely
would have provoked It
Criticism of tbe war office's failure
adequately to supply Port Artbur la
met by a statement that it was pro
visioned for a garrison of twelve bat
talions, tbe decision to put thirty bat
talioos being taken so late that the
original calculations could not be rem
edied.
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.
It la denied that the war office was
deceived In regard to the available
strength of tbe Japanese army or or-
ganlsation of Japanese reserves, but
tbe army organ frankly admits that
tbe talents of tbe c ffioera and wonder
ful spirit of tbe solflers were misoal
Honor." Well, those of us who knew
bins in bis i youoger days are not sur
prised that It la now “Judge Prince.”
Tbe Judge always bad a Judicial mind
and declared when a child that be In

ceived that idea so early In life I oan’t | ®]“*^7
imagine. He was bora eight miles
from a Court Bouse, and I have no
idee- he was ever imtde of one before
he was seventeen years of age. But
a lawyer he Is, and no other man lovi s

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

It la a di-treshlng list, and but lit
tle comforting to Rus-lan pride. It
is even more terrible by comparison
with the almost complete Immunity
>f tbe Japanese. So far as can be
ascertained, the Japanese^ have 1- si
hut one officer of the rank of general,
killed In action at Port Artbus, and
two of the rank -of gdiniral, both of
whom were drowned In tbe sinking of
tbe battleship Hat^use. Not.ooe has
be n-captured by the Ri-*Uns and
cone have been recalled. A striking
contrast, indeed.
Port Aithur was, of course, respon
sible for a large proportion of tbe
Russian losses. 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. Admiral Statck was recalled
soon after the beginning of the war
for incomp tency, It was stated.
Skrydl ff and Be->0brsz< ff were failures
at Vladivostok, though tbe former
was credited—wrongly, as la now be
lieved—with tbe suocissful raids on
tbe Japanese transports. Viceroy
Alexleff has fallen Into disgrace not
only with the government,, but
tbe _
volved agon soma half dozen
generals of no particular note, with
theasoeption of Karopatklo, who, it
must be admitted, baa dons very lit
tle to maintain his gnat reputation
To RMh straits are the legions of
his Majesty Nicholas II reduced in 12
months of warfare with Age dispiasd
Japaneee! “An army Hhs sometimes
Woo commanded .with auccms by a
