4 DRIVE ENEMY BEFORE THEM.
' , ; . Russians are Unable to Check Advance
u
, of Japs.
ASHINGTON.-Tho Japanese legation -
. * gation here received the following ofli-
clal cablegram from Toltlo :
"Gen ral Kurold , commanding the
First army , reports from Chiu Lien
' \ i , _ Chang that on May 1 the Second and
t ( fr' Twelfth divisions and the Imperial
guard , forming the First army corps ,
had advanced notwithstanding resistance -
allce oil the part of the enemy , by
three roads , driving the enemy before
them , and at 8 1J , m. occupied the line
extending from Antung to Lh.tshu Jon.
The Imperial guard surrounded the
enemy on three sides , and , after a
severe fight , captured twenty guns ,
with horses and carriages , and more
than twenty officers and many men.
The general reserve corps advanced
by the Lia Yang ratlway. The enemy
was composed of the whole Third division -
vision of the Twenty-second and
, . . Twenty.fourth regiments of the Sixth
infantry division of sharpshooters ,
General Mistchenlw's cavalry brig-
ado , with about forty guns and eight
machine guns. The enemy fled toward
Zeng Huang Cheng. Our casualties
will not exceed at most 700. Twenty-
eight quick-firing guns and large quan-
titles of small arms and ammunition
' were captured. Our heavy field guns
were very effective. A Russian officer .
eel' who was taken prisoner says that
. . both of the commanders of the army
i.
corps and the division were wounded
and that the Russian casualties ex
, ceeded 800. "

CZAR IS GREATLY GRIEVED.
Dumfounded When Told of the Losses
Suffered on the Yalu.
ST. P.ETERSBURG-The emperor
is understood to be greatly grieved
_ over the losses sustained on the Yalu.
Those who have seen his majesty
, say that he was dumfounded when
'i . he was informed of the heavy fight-
ing which attended the passage of
the river. As is well understood here ,
General Kuropatldll's program , did
not contemplate ] such resistance to
the Japanese advance. It is said ,
moreover , that Kurovatldn himself
was equally surprised and so cha-
grined over the miscarriage of his
plans that he sent his first telegram
to the general staaff and not direct
to the emperor. The understanding
here is that General Zassalitch had
specific orders to avoid anything like
a general engagement , and it is believed - :
lieved that the Russian commander
at the front probably was deceived in
his estimate of the strength of Gen-
L' j eral Kuroki's artillery , being in entire
, , , . , ignorance that 4.2 guns had been
posted and got into a position from
which he had the greatest difficulty in
. extricating his men. The only consolation .
- "
lation for the loss of the guns is that ,
being without their' ' breech locks , they
are of no value to the enemy. .

Shad and Their Bones
A genius who invented a machin
for removing the bones from shad is
promoting a company with a capJiatl
of $1,000,000 to rush the apparatus on
the market before the end of the shall
season , Ho says : "I have COlllted !
In a singled shad of five IJOmtds 3,000
bones and 1-17,000 eggs. I have eaten
600,000 eggs at a meal. I have eaten
2,500 bones at a meal , for bones do not
hurt me , but they are a menace to the
world at large. My machine is sim-
ply ; 11. powerful magnet which is passed
slowly over the fish from end to ond.
The small bones leap right out of
the flesh in handfuls. You can use
the invetnion either before 01' after
cooldng. I prefer it after , because
the fish is sweeter . if cooked with the
bones in. "
If -all promises are fulfilled the
United States will have royal visitors

poll of Belgium , King l\Ienelik of
Abyssinia , the Crown Prince of Germany -
many , the Crown Prince of Sweden
and the Crown Prince of China.
A Sure Protection.
Barton , N. Dalt. , May 9th.-Many
cases are being published of how diseases -
eases have been cured and lives saved
by Dodd's Kidney Pills , but there is
a family in this place who use this
remedy as , a protection against the
coming on of diseases and with excel-
lent results.
Mr. W. A. Moffet says : "We have
no very serious illness or complaint
for we always use Dodd's Kidney Pills
the very moment wo feel the least
symptom of sickness and they soon
put us right If we have a touch of. .
lame back or think the kidneys are .
not right , we take a few Dodd's Kid- .
ney Pills and the symptoms are soon
all gone.
"My brother had diabetes and the
doctor told him he could not live until
spring. I got some Dodd's Kidney
Pills for him , and although that was
several years ago , he has lived
through allthe _ winters and springs
since and is still living. Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills are a wonderful medicine. "
It's the black sheep that generally
lives to a ripe old age , while the
spring lamb dies young.
