An unconfirmed rumor Is current among the Chinese, thnt a battle occurred sin miles from Port Arthur yesterday. STORY OF A DESPERATE BATTLE. Japanese Victory at Nanshan Hill Costs Heavily. Toklo, May SO. The details f the fighting at Kin Chou otuphusues the heroic tenacity of the Japanese in their conduct at Nunsliiiu hill. Nino successive times the Japanese charged tho fortified height in the race of a btorm of duith-dealhig ulssihss, and in their last effort they curried the forts and trendies only after a bayonet-to-bayonet, conllict with the Rus sians, who made a desperate despair ing struggle to beat back tho un-coui-iug hordes. The final assault of the Japainfe, In which they at last .succeeded in taking possession, was marked by the most doaperuio huml-to-hand eaciiuut er that has thus tar characterized the war. The Japanese kit throughout tho entire action, until night, was ex posed to an enfilading lire from the Russian Infantry, a gunboat on Talien wan bay und four guns posted ut Tn fengcheu. At a critical moment, the ammunition of the artillery ran low. and it was decided to cast the remain ing ammunition into one limit desper ate assault. Fortunately, however, at tho moment this decision was reached the Japanese s'piudroii in Kin Chou bay, which had ceased bombard Ing when the infantry had first moved forward, suddenly resumed the shell ing of Nanshan hill. Then it was that tho issues of tho day wi re determined at a moment when the outcome was OutU'rinj between success and defeat for Japan that r.ioinent wils almost certain repulse converted into victory so successful that the forces of tho czar were swept into confusion and disorderly retreat." With every Japa nese gun centering its flro upon the Nanshan forts and trendies, the Japa nese infantry sprang over the bodies of the dead comrades who had sacri ficed their lives in the previous fruit less charges. The entire line rushed forward toward the Russian left, where the tiro of the Japanese squad ron had proved most deadly and which was the first to weaken under the death dealing bombardment. And It was there that tho first breach was made In the human stone wall that all day had been an Invincible barrier to the impetuous assaults of the brown men. It was the Fourth division of the Osaka men that stormed the litis Plan left. It had once been said that Osaka men wore not brave. It will never tie 6ald again. Tho First division of Toklo. which had the center, and the Third division of Nagoya, occupying the left, and which had been exposed all day to the Russian fire against the front Hank, now followed the example of tho Osaka men and rushed forward and the battle became transformed fmm an artillery duel Into one of personal conflict, with the bayonet as the In strument of warfare On every par apet the resistless, death-defying Japanese surged forward In Increas ing numbers, and hustling tho Rus sians from their entrenchments, swept over the hill. At 7:. 10 p. m. the flag of the land of the rising sun floated abov? the blood sodden Nnnshnn hill. The Japanese paid for their victory In 3.5i"'0 killed and wounded. To the RuFslnns the humllltntion of defeat was intensified by tho loss of Flxty tight cannon and ten machine guns, while lying dea l in the forts nnd trenches were r0'" ru n, the victims of the accuracy of .Inpar.es. lung dis tance marksmanship and of close ranee fighting.

Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable bj Kidney and Bladder Trouble. Kidney trouble preys ujhui the niiiul, discourugcsuudlt-sM'tisumhilion; lieauty, vigor uml cheerful ness sM)ii ihsiipju-Hr when the kidneys are out of order or dis eased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncom mon for a child to be Inirii afflicted with weak kidiicvs. If the child urinates toooftcn, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches hh uge w hen it should te able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with hrd-wrt-ting, di'iK'iid upon it, the cause of the diffi culty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys ami bladder and not to n habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miser able with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy.
