ant documents. The police are mak-
ing the fullest investigation.

Oklahoma City Busi-
ness College.
Tolilo, Aug. 15.—The navy depart-
ment tonight issued a brief statement
011 the engagement with the Rus-
sian Port Arthur squadron on August
10. The statement follows:
"According to reports received
to date the enemy's fleet which em-
erged from Port Arthur was attacked
by our fleet south of Yentao island.
The Russan fleet fled during the
night. The cruisers Askoid, Novik
and another cruiser, with one tor-
pedo boat destroyer went to Chee Foo
and three of the enemy's battleships,
one cruiser, probably the Diana, one
hospital ship, two gunboats and sev-
eral torpedo boat destroyers seems
to have returned separately to Port
Arthur between dawn and noon of
August 11. Our fleet appears to have
sustained no damage."
Admiral Togo has reported as fol-
lows :
"On August 10 eur combined fleet
ittacked the enemy's fleet near Gugan
I rock. The Russians wore emerging
I from Port Arthur, trying to go south.
I We pursued the enemy to the east-
i ward. His formation became confus-
j ed and then his ships scattered. The
] Russian cruisers Askoid and Novik
i and several torpedo boat deal royers
j fled to the southward. Other of the
I enemy's ships retreated separately
j toward Port Arthur. We pursued
{ them and it appeared that we inflict-
ed considerable damage. We found life
I buoys and other articles belonging
to the Russian battleship Czarovitch
j floating at sea. The Czarovitch was
j probably sunk. We have received no
reports from the torpedo boats and
| the torpedo boat destroyers which
I were engaged in the attack on the
I ships of the enemy. The Russian ves-
j sels, with the exception of the As-
j kold, the Novik, the Czerevltch and
the cruiser Pallada, appeared to have
returned to Port Arthur. Our dam-
age was slight. Our fighting power
has not been impaired."
ASK MAYOR TO HELP.
Mr. Harrison Will Be Appealed To By
The Strikers.
Chicago, Aug. 15.—Mayor Harrison
will be asked to do what he can to-
ward settling the stock yards strike.
With all prospects of peace, or even
conference gone, the retail meat deal-
ers and grocers decided to ask. the
city's executive to take a position in
the present conflict similar to that as-
sumed by him in the street car strike
last fall. The street railway strike
was settled through his efforts. At
a meeting of the retail dealers a com-
mittee of ten persons was appointed
to wait upon the mayor. Representa-
tives of the strikers were present at
this meeting and expressed them-
selves as being satisfied with the plan
to ask Mayor Harrison's assistance.
Previous to the decision to request
Mayor Harrison to intercede for peace
Cornelius Shea, president of the in-
ternational brotherhood of teamsters,
declared, in an interview that there
would be no more sympathetic strikes
of the members of his union. He de-
clared that all the packing house
teamsters would "stand pat," meaning
that they would remain on strike.
Mr. Shea's attitude is taken to
mean that the teamsters' joint coun-
cil will refuse to sanction any actual
walk outs of its members , when
they meet to consider the matter.
A riot in crowded Fifth avenue with-
in a square of the city hall capped
the climax of disorder in the stock-
yards strike. During the day half a
dozen men were hurt in various en-
counters and shots here fired during
' an attack on a trainload of "strike-
breakers." All told, today's violence
was more wide-spread than in any
previous twehe hours of the strike.
Total Japanese Loss 12,055.
Washington, Aug. 15.—The Japan-
ese legation has received a revised
list of the casualtes on the Japanese
side from the battle of Chingjiu, Mar.
28, up to and including the battle of
Yangteselng, Aug. 1, shqwing the
total estimated casualties to be 12,-
055.
Black Hair Turns White.
Cincinnati, O., Aug. 11.—In a single
night the glossy black hair of Wil-
liam Gossin, patient at the city hos-
pital, was turned snowy white by a
shock occasioned by the news that his
only brother had been, killed in Los
Angeles, Cal.
ATTEMPT AT TRAIN WRECKING.
Wyoming Station Agent Shot When
He Changed the Lights.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 10.—An at-
tempt as made to wreck the Atlantic
Express on the Union Pacific railroad
near Ahsay station, between Rock
Springs and Green river.
John Utley, station agent at Ahsay,
noticing the lights of the switch were
turned the wrong way, started to fix
them when he was fired at from the
dark and wounded in the arm. Ut-
ley fell to the ground and the
would-be train wreckers fled. Utley
managed to get to the station and
called up Wilkins, the next station
west. The Atlantic Express was
ragged there and the wreck and prob-
able hold-up were thus- prevented.
ADMIRAL WITHOFT KILLED.
Was in Charge of Russian Port Ar-
thur Squadron.
London, Aug. 15.—A dispatch from
St. Petersburg says the mahhinery of
the Russian Battleship Czarevitch was
so knocked about during the fight
that most of it is worthless. She lost
210 officers and men killed and had
sixty wounded. Rear Admiral With-
oft was on the bridge of the Czare-
vitch when a shell exploded there;
blowing him to pieces.
J0V MIXED WITH FEAf].
St. Petersburg Rejoices But Is Also
Solemn.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 15.—St. Peters-
burg is divided between rejoicing
over the birth of an heir to the throne
and anxiety as to the fate of the Port
Arthur squadron. As has happpened
on several occasions since the war
began a fete day at the capital coin-
cides with an important development
at the front and national thanks-
giving is tempered with solemnity.
A day marked by the display of
flags, the firing of salutes, the holding
of religious services and the extend-
ing of official congratulations, as fol-
lowed by a night of brilliant illumin-
ations. Garlands and lamps were
strung across almost every house
front, while from many of the larger
buildings flashed the Russian arms,
the imperial monogram and other
devices picked out in electric globes.
Early tens of thousands of tapers
glimmered before the altars of St.
Petersburg's many shrines. In chap-
els and cathedrals every where there
were solemn choruses of thanksgiv-
ing—from the imperial chapel of the
Peterhoff palace to the humble lamp-
lit shrines of the streets, where the
hurrying pedestrians, laborers and
droskey drivers waited to cross them-
selves. The street crowds were, how-
ever, much quieter than usual on a
holiday, popular rejoicing over the
event at the Alexandria Villa could
no dispel the anxiety which prevail-
ed regarding the fate of the squad-
ron on which so much depends.
THE CALCHAS AT VLADIVOSTOK.
Last Prize Taken in Recent Raid Has
Reached Port.
Vladivostok, Aug. 10.—The British
steamer Calchas, from Tacoma for Ja-
pan ports, which was arrested by the
Vladivostok Bquadron thirty miles
north of Tokio bay, during the recent
cruise off the Pacific coast of Ja-
pan,arrived in charge of a prize crew.
She was a week overdue, having
been detained by fogs. The Calchas
is the last vessel captured by Admir-
al Jessen's cruisers. The papers of
the Calchas showed that she was car-
rying 370 tons of flour, nine tons of
cotton, 215 cogs, and 125 parts of ma-
chinery, all consigned to Yokohama.
The remaining 1,500 tons of the Cal-
chas' cargo were consigned to Hong
Kong.
The Calchas carried sufficient coal
to go to Vladivostok. Therefore, it
was decided to send her to that port
in charge of Lieutenant Stackelberg
and forty-one men from the Burlk.
The transfer of the prize crew to the
steamer was attended with the great-
est danger, owing to the heavy sea
which was running at the time.
Novel Automobile Whittles.
A European Inventor has converted
the spokes of an automobile into
whistles, which are operated by the
air action. The whistles are controlled
by a series of small rubber balls in
connection with the seat, their re-
lease opening the valve in the spokes
and producing a peculiar whistling
noise easily heard above the sound of
traffic.

Custom of Roman Mothers.
A Roman mother of classic days
hung a bulla about her baby's neck
as soon as he could walit. Often this
was just a disc of metal or leather,
bearing the name of the child's fam-
ily; but more often It was a hollow
metal case, highly ornamented, which
held charms against evil spirits.

Japan's Fractional Currency.
To have a notion of the point to
which economy can be pushed one
should learn the currency of Japan.
The yen when not depreciated is
worth $1, and now considerably less—
perhaps a half. It is equal to 100 sen.
equal to 10 rim, equal to 10 sho, equal
to 10 kotshu.
Women and the Stage.
The year lfiGO marks the. entrance
of woman upon the stage. At about
the same time movable scenery was
introduced and music and dancing
followed. Women had been prohibit-
ed from appearing on the stage, per-
haps because the female parts were
not of a character for feminine pres-
entation. At that time the standards
of the theater were low, due to the
era of license which the restoration
of Charles II Inaugurated.
Traps for Curiosity Hunters.
Many of the local curiosity shops
planted in the back streets of most
county and country towns are simply
kept up by large London firms, who,
from a prolonged study of human na-
ture, have discovered that people who
are shy of buying old furniture or old
silver in Bond street or Piccadilly are
ready and eager purchasers of pre-
cisely the same objects, at a rather
higher price, when they come upon
them in the back streets of a country
town.
JUST ONE DAY
Free From the Slugger Brought Out
a Fact.
"During the time I was a coffee
drinker," says an Iowa woman, "1 was
nervous, had spells with my heart,
smothering spells, headache, stom-
ach trouble, liver and kidney trouble.
I did not know for years what made
me have those spells. I would fre-
quently sink away as though my last
hour had come.
"For 27 years I suffered thus and
used bottles of medicine enough to set
up a drug store—capsules and pills
and everything I heard of. Spent
lots of money but I was Bick nearly
all the time. Sometimes I was so
nervous I could not hold a plate in
my hands! and other times I thought
I would surely die sitting at the table.
"This went on until about two years
ago when one day I did not use any
coffee and I noticed I was not so nerv-
ous and told my husband about it.
He had been telling me that it might
be the coffee but I said 'No, I have
been drinking coffee all my life and
it cannot be.' But after this I thought
1 would try and do without and drink
hot water. I did this for several days,
but got tired of the hot water and
went to drinking coffee and as soon
as I began coffee again I was nervous
again. This proved that it was the
coffee that caused my troubles.
"We had tried Postum but had not
made it right and did not like it, but
now I decided to give it another trial
so I read the directions on the pack-
age carefully and made it after these
directions and it was simply delicious,
bo we quit coffee for good and the re-
sults are wonderful. Before, I could
not sleep but now I go to bed and
sleep sound, am not a bit nervous
now, but work hard and can walk
miles. Nervous headaches are gone,
my heart does not bother me any
more like it did and I don't have any
of the smothering spells and would
you believe It? I am getting fat. We
drink Postum now and nothing else
and even my husband's headaches
have disappeared; we both sleep
sound and healthy now and that's a
blessing." Name given by Postum
