A frontier that no treaties could confine and a lust for territory that no concessions could satisfy have been the uniform accompaniments of the secular advance of the empire of the Czar. It isa perception of the fact that Japan is fighting the battle of ¢ivilization that, apart from all considera— tions of trade and commerce, has created a sentiment among the American people which can hardly fail to determine the attitude of their government duripg the course and at the conclusion of the pending conflict.” The Czar may not have known the fact, but his representatives at Washington ought to have known and communicated the fact of the overwhelming force of American sympathy against the claims of Russia in the pending conflict. The American public is an observer of foreign events as keen as the European public, if not even more so. The American may not be able to draw the finely spun conclusions the European may be able to draw from the course of events nearer his home, and more directly affecting him, but it is the far greater probability that the soundness of his judgment is all the more assured because he lets theories go by the board and acquaints himself with facts. It cost Russia but little to anchor her fleet in the waters At the Hotel Antlers the party comprising the best sustained.group which carried off the honors at Company O’s recent masquerade will be banqueted this evening. Souvenir mena cards of an artistic design have been printed for the occasion, and the very best obtainable in the market will comprise the elaborate spread. The following named persens will partake of the feast: Misses Daisy Shaver, Lizzie Richards, Bertha Shaver, May Richards, Joseph Siddles, Joseph Blight, Frank Williams, James Michell. To Institute Tonight A local branch of the American Order of Protection will be instituted this possesses many excellent featares in addition to its fraternal insurance system, and the local organization starts off with a healthy charter list lncluding some of the best social, masical and literary talent in our city, Superior Court. The following business was trans-. acted in the Superior Oourt today Judge F. T. Nilon presiding: Estate of Edward Miller, deceased. Inventory and agpraisement filed by Jobn Mulroy, Richard Stager and Jerry Kelly, appraisers. Interest in the Fahey quartz mine fixed at $100, Order to show cause why order of sale of real estate should not be made. ‘A Foolish Virgin. Miss Mary Kilcullen, of St. Louis, owned $2000 ia greenbacke, which she carefully hid beneath the carpet in her bedroom. While she religiously looked under the bed each night to see that no burglar lay hidden there, days and months went by without her looking after the money, as she thought it safe and secure. Now it seems that her home was infested with rats and mice and one day when she went to procure a five-dollar note from her hoard she was borrifled to find that they had discovered the hiding place of her money and had made a nice little cosy nest of it. The bille were all of New York Harbor during the Civil War, and it cost her less for the reason that when her fleet dropped anchor the cause of the Union had been assured—and Russia dearly loves the winning side. Moreover, the American public has an old-time predilection in favor of good faith and its constant observance between nations and peoples, together with a keen admiration for a little and a new nation that knows when a greater power is only playing for time, and breaks the play by vigorous and manly action. The reason for American sympathy with Japan is plain, and if Russia should come to an ability to appreciate the reason she will be farther to the front for good faith and honor among nations than she is today—and it will be better for her and*for her people.—Cincinnati Commercial T ribune. 4444 4.448 THE JAPS AS SOLDIERS N officer of the United States Army who happened to be AN in NewYorkfrecently, and who is qualified to speak both from training and experience, of the armies of Russia and Japan, expressed his amazement at the popular impres— sion that as soon asthe scene of the war in the Fast shifted from sea to land there would be a corresponding change in the favor of fortune. “Why,” he said, “I know the make-up of both armies. Whatever may be said of the officers, the line of the Russian land forces is made up of badly-paid, badly-housed, badlyfed men of a low grade of intelligence. They are in poor mental and physical condition and they are not personally interested one way or the other in the outcome of any war in which they may be ordered to engage. “On the other hand, it is hard to underestimate the amazing qualifications of the Japanese rank and file. These little brown men—in strong contrast to their enemies—have all péen well taken care of, They are well paid, well housed and full of intelligence. Every one of these little brown fellows is trained like an athlete and the army is always kept even individually in the best of conditions. From the highest officer down to and through the men behind the guns they are all enthusiasts, and all have studied and become familiar witn.the topography of the country in which they “are now called upon ‘fight.

It was well nigh impossible to find a whole note. Miss Kilcullen wept, and then some one told her that the United States Treasury would redeem the pieces and issue her new greenbacks in lieu thereof. She sent them on to Washington, but the Treasury experts could piece out the notes to the value of only $800, and this sum was allowed her. Her neighbors knew that she had $2000 under the Carpet, and go she took her troubles to her Congressman, Representative Hamlin. She being a beautiful and charming woman he introduced in the House a measure to reimburse her in the sum of $1200, The House Committee on claims took up the measure and after examining all the evidence and viewing the scraps of bills which the Treasury would not redeem decided that she was entitled to the sum of $1200, and she accordingly wot ft. ————+ 26e> —____— Shuffles Off. ~~ KNOXxviLLe, Tenn., March 1st.—Ool.
