the fefavy projectiles of the enemy's
rmr.red ahlr.
I watched tin- rtropuvlovk closely as 't
steamed toward Electric cliff. The frown
ing marine monster, whose fun were ever
turning toward the enemy. was pre
pared to send huge mwinners of death
against him.
Tlirw Rs' plosions.
All waa quiet. It wna the hush before
a brittle, ii hush when every norve la
trained to get Into Impending danger. I
looked for the Jnpaneac ahlpa, but they
wire without movement, aave thnt caused
by tha heaving sea. My glfinre returned
to our squadron. The petropavlovsk win
almost without headway when suddenly I
saw t tremble. It seemed to rlae out of
the water, a tremendous exploalon rent
tha air, then a second and a third. Frag
ments flew In all directions and wreckage
and men were mixed up In a terrible mam.
I was hardly able to realise the horror
Of It when the ship began to lint. In a
moment the sea seemed to open and the
water rushed over It. Tha Petropavlovsk
had disappeared. The floating woodwork
and tha few men struggling In the water
were all that was left to recall the splendid
fighting machine. The same shock ex
perienced by the observers on Golden Hill
paralysed for a moment the men on the
hips, but when It passed torpedo boats
and small boats haatened to the rescue of
the survlvora.
Eager to ascertain what had occurred on
board the sunken ship, I haatened to a
landing where a small remnant of the gal
lant crew were being put ashore and con
veyed to a hospital.
Slajaal Man Telia Story.
Signalman Pochkoff, who was slightly
wounded, was able to give me a remark
ably clear statement of the dlseastcr. Ha
aid:
"We were returning to the harbor, the
Petropovlovsk leading. Bume of our cruis
ers which had remained In the harbor
came out and steamed toward the enemy,
firing sixteen shots at him with their bow
guns; then then retired. The enemy num
bered fourteen heavy ahlpa, nearly all
armored, while our were nine. Against
their armored cruisers we had only the
Ilayan. I stood In the wheelhouse on the
bridge of the Petropavlovsk looking up the
signal book. The admiral's last signal had
been for the torpedo boats to enter the
harbor.
"The Petropavlovsk slowed speed and al
most stood still. Suddenly the ship shook
violently. ' I heard a fearful explosion. Im
mediately followed by another and then
another. They seemed to me to be directly
under the bridge. I rushed to the door of
the wheel house and I met an officer. I
could not pass him and I sprang to the
window and Jumped out. The ship was
listing and I feared that every moment It
would turn over. On the bridge I saw an
officer weltering In blood It was our ad
miral Makaroff. He lay face downward,
t I sprang to him, grasped him by the shoul
der and attempted to raise him.
"The ship seemed to be falling somewhere.
From all Sides flew fragments. I heard
the deafening screech and a frightful din.
Smoke rose In dense clouds and the fumes
seemed to leap toward the bridge where I
was standing beside the admiral.
"I Jumped on the rail and waa washed
out. but succeeded In grabbing something.
"On our ship was an old man with a
beautiful white beard who had been good
to our men. He had a book In his hand
and aeemed to be writing, perhaps sketch'
Ing. ' He waa Verestchagtn, the painter."
There's - a Difference.
Perhaps the word "tonic" Is more often
abused and twisted from Its original mean
ing than any other In tha English tongue.
It la used to characterise whatever tem
porarily spurs or excites the system with
er out regard to Ita laatlng her.eflts.
A well known medical writer lately said:
. "A real tonic builds Instead of booming,
strengthens instead of exciting; It feeda
Instead of frightening." A' tonic, In the
true sense, la a food, a nutrient. It must
nourish."
That la why a malt tonic a true malt
tonic la Ideal. . It supplies not only the
- vitalising effect, but the food, the up
building elements.
A great many dark -colored beers are
christened "malt tonics." but they lack
the food elements and the reconstructive
properties.
Malt-Nutrlne, the product of Anheuser
Busch Brewing Ass'n, St. Louis, Is a tonio
that la rich In nutriment, and a bullder-up.
It la especially valuable to convales
cents, nursing mothers and those who have
need of an effective tonlo that will be re
tained by the most delicate stomach.
Its acceptance and use In the practice
Of America's moat eminent and successful
physicians, and the great and continued
demand for It at druggists' and grocers',
by whom It Is sold the country over, proves
conclusively Its merit and popularity.
Malt-Nutrlne la served at the leading
health resorts and summering places.
anday Closing at Columbas.
COLUMBCB. Neb., April i:.-(Speclal.)-It
was far easier today for the scriptural
camel to pass through the eye of a needle
than It was to get a drink In "the saloons.
Mayor Boettcher Issued orders to the po
lice department Saturday and the saloons
were all notified that they would be re
ejufreg to keep rloaed up hereafter on Sun
days, and so far as ctn be learned the
order has been obeyed to the letter. As
a consequence a good number of the old
timers sadly missed their "nips" today.
Tike order Is said to be made for good
and will probably continue In force jkt
least for a year.

OMAHA WINS BATTING GAME
Hill Harder and Mors Opportunely Than
the Men from St. Joreph,
WELCH SCORES THE FIRST HOME RUN
Visitors Start Oat to Take the Game
Wlthoat Any Ceremony, bat Pa
Ronrke's Hired Men Pile
a Demnrrer.
Mr. Sample, pitcher and otherwise main
guy of the 6t. Joseph base ball team, might.
n time and with much practice learn to
do a aong and dance, turn or a monologue
part, but as a baas ball twirlcr he Is not
a pronounced success. At least Pa's pets
found him an easy mark yesterday at the
Vinton street grounds, and put his team
into clear by a score of U to 10. To be
sure the margin was not very broad, but
It answered tha purpose and the Omahas
didn't put up much of a game, either. The
Omahas made thirteen hits off Sample and
the visitors made a like number off Lleb
liardt and Henderson. But while there was
therefore no difference In quantity there
was a very material difference In quality.
The home team bunched theirs and placed
them at long range, while the St Jo's
were scattering and largely to the Infield.
Harry Sage wns the umpire and was as
raw In some of his decisions as though
he were umpiring a game of dominoes. The
trouble started with the muff of a llttlo
fly by Dolan at short that let Belden have
a base. Thereupon Llebhardt got a little
mixed in his dates and gave the next man
a base on balls. Then he threw a wild
one that advanced both men a base. Mc-
Brlde, who was the second man up, tried
for third on Hartman's long fly to left.
which wns gathered in by Carter, but got
caught at it Thile Pelden galloped In with
the first run. Garvin sent a long one to
Harry Welch out In center and it was all
over.
From the way the game started It looked
like a cinch for the visitors. The Omahas
failed to connect In their first turn at tho
bat, though Carter promptly smashed the
first one over for a good safe hit to left.
St. Jo pounded out three runs In the
first of the second Inning on a single by
McConnell and three baggers by Bamplo
and Belden, respectively, aided by t'mplre
Sage.
Bat Aronnd Once,
Pa Rourke talked to his boys In a fath
erly fashion when they came In and a gen
eral tightening up was the result. An
other result was a time at bat for every
man, seven runs with five hits and a total
of seven bases and a much better taste
In the mouths of the local rooters. Each
side made two more In the fourth so that
at the beginning of the sixth the home team
had a lend of three. Each side again made
one in the sixth and still the Omahas
maintained their lead of three. But In the
seventh three hits and an error by Downs
let In three runs, while Ronrke's meh
were retired with only one more to their
credit. With the score 11 to 10 In their
fuvor, the home team sent the St. Jo
people to the bench In one, two, three or
der with the exception of Garvin, who was
first up and sent one to Downs that was
too hot to handle, and In the ninth they
did the same thing. The Omaha men failed
to score in the eighth or. ninth. While
the game was, as a whole, loosely played
all around. It was noticeable that at crit
ical times with two or three men on bases
there was a general attention to business
by the Omaha forces that saved the day. '
The feature of the hitting was the home
run of Welch In' tha fourth Inning. It
was the first one off , the season, and aa
it sailed over the right field fence it was
rapturously greeted by the fans. There
was an attendance of about 2,600 people
with a very generous sprinkling of women.
The score:
