' About all that Is definitely known ia that a considerable number of his troops have already gone north, that the heights near the Llao river at Tie Pass .have been fortified; that the pass has been secured and that cavalry Is scouting wide on the Russian flanks to signal the first Indication of n new turning movement on the part of the Japanese. Only outpost skirmishes of little Importance have been reported. , The Japanese are now expected to re double their efforts before Port Arthur, where the news received Is not encouraging. In spite of the success which hitherto has attended the defense, the Russian lines are being drawn closer, the garrison ia under going severe privations and its resisting power Is weakening under the strata. A final sortiu of the Russian squadron at Port Arthur may be expected at any time. When the command bf the squadron was turned over to Rear Admiral Wlren ha re ceived strict instructions that If the for tress falls not, one of the Russian ships must fall Into the hands of the Japanese. A telegram frtith Harbin says the follow ing report has been received from Port Arthur: I Our garrison is In good spirits and there Is no prospect of pruvlnlona falling." Port Arthur lit prepared to r.:ake a long, obstl---fiate defense. ! . . The Japanese are strongly fortifying their positions near the Kin Chou Isthmus and are entrenching befurc Port Arthur. S:2t p. in. The Russian military critics, analyzing Gcnoral. Kouropatktn's extended report of the battle of Llao Yang, seem tu unite In considering that Field Marshal Oyama's purpose huvlr.rf fulled, the honors belong rather to Kouropntkln than to ths Japanese commander-in-chief. The No-roe Vremya draws a parallel between Llau Vrng nnd Bordlno, where General Kutu 'iff s abandonment of Moscow to Napoleon was followed by tho disastrous retreat of 1I1O French. H.-neral Kouropitklu reports that recon 1 olseanccs have established tho fact that the Japanese are masting near Yental and llcntslaputze. Bodies of Japanese are also moving In the Llao river valley.

Juiwncao are leaving a garrison at Llao Yang and their main forces ere moving out on tho Russian flanks, ia partially con tained by the dispatch from General Kouro- patkin reporting that the Japanese are ! massing on the Rufslftn flanki, that a largo loice Is concentrating at Bentslo'puue, twenty miles southeast of Mukden, and thai mother force, whose strength has not been established, la moving up the Llao valley. The greater part of Field Mar shal Oyama's army, however, is still near Yentai, encamped along the heights be tween the mines and the railroad. . While the War office doea not expect an Imme diate udvance, the preliminary dispositions of the Japanese forces are taken to Indi cate that the Japanese intend, when they advance, to strike from the eastward. They ceem to be avoiding the territory west of the Llao river, possibly because It Is flat nnd would give the Russians the advantage of their superiority In cavalry. Chinese residents fleeing to Mukden com- , plain that the Japanese are pillaging Llao Yang. General Bakharoff telegraphs a formal denial of several of Oyama's statements He says tbe alleged dumdum bullets found at Llao Yang are simply the regulation squnre-nosed bullets of the service re volver. They are of the same caliber as the Russian rifle of 1881 and the bullcta are all lead, are not jacketed and are In no .wise dumdums. The general also d-nles the statement that the Japanese captured s large quantity of ammunition.

SHANGHAI, Sept 16.-The North China Dally News publishes a private letter from a Chinese Interpreter employed from 18)17 until the end o( August last. In the com missariat department at Port Arthur. The writer says that In February last the de partment supplied dally 83,090 rations to the Russian land forces alone, the naval forces supplying themselves. ""But when we de parted," he adds, "only 15,004 rations were supplied dally toi the whole garrison, In cluding the crews of the Ironclads, which are now manning the forts. There are now 24,00) sick and wounded men at Port Ar thur. Of ammunition of all kinds there are very small stocks, and there are only Ave weeks' full rations remaining." A GLIMPSE 0F OLD TIMES How Connecticut Girls Busied Them selves Daring- School Honrs One Hundred Years Ago, In the early days of the lagt century the town of Lltchlleld In Connecticut was tho site of two notable educational institutions. The first of these was the Litchfield Law school, in which many men of note received their early training. The-second was Miss Snrah Pierce's School for Girls, afterward known as the Litchfield Female academy. For many years Miss Pierce's school was famous throughout the union, or at least throughout the coast and gulf states. It had Its beginnings In a class organised, probibly, in 1798 In the Pierce dining room, and Tor forty years it flourished. From records now available, Emily Noyes Van derpoel has compiled a history of this school, which la of peculiar interest in its presentation of some phases of the New England school life of a'century ago. The young women who sat under Miss Pierce's instruction were taken as board ers by the residents of Litchfield, and were under the family discipline of the house holds in which they lived. There was no lack of social life for them In dances, con certs and similar diversions, In which they were permitted to participate along with young men of the law School. The young men, on their side, were In the habit of serenading the young ladles after night fall. Litchfield must have been a pleasant spot in the early days of the nineteenth century. Tho diary of Charlotte Sheldon, a young woman of Litchfield, written n 1796, when she was 16 years nld, and had upbuilt a reputation a a "monster In learning." gives an Idea of the occupations of the pupils at the school. Here are a few en tries found in the month of May: "Thursday, 2d Cleaned my chamber, sewed, read la the American Magazine, wrote a letter to Fanny Smith tho I shall not send It to here, was Inattentive & got to the foot In spelling, took a walk with the girls. got wlntergreen & honeysuckle, had a very agreeable walk, came homo & dressed my hat with honeysuckle & ground pine. "Friday, Sd Sewed almost all morning, studied a geography lesson. & recited It, dressed 4 went to Holmes where I spent the afternoon very agreeably, spent the afternoon tc svening at Dr. Smith's thero was a large circle there. "Saturday, 4th-Went to school, wrote, a curious epistle to Sally Tracy, wrote a hot ter to Fanny Smith A copied It, read Goldsmiths animated Nature, went to ths store f times, sewed on my short gown. "Sunday, tth Attended meeting all day. read In Goldsmiths Animated Nature, I like It very much, many parts of It are quite Interesting took a run In the garden sewed all evening." The Sabbnth ended with ths sotting of tho sun. In 1817 Dr. Lyman needier was the preacher to whom the young ladles llstened.nd Miss Ellsa A. Ogden. In her joyrnal Xor 1817. thus records her impres sions of him: - -' "Sunday I attended meeting. Mr. Beecher preached a very good sermon, quite as good as he usually does, though I do not think ho Is one of the best of preachers." Hers Is an extract of a letter written In 1819 by Miss Mary Chester to her mother; ' "Dear Mother: If you can Imagine to yourself a person traveling In the burning sandy deserts without anything to quench his thirst for a long time finally some one should give him a cup of cold water I say Mother If you can tell what kind of a sen sation that produo'd you oould hav a bet ter Idea of ths satisfaction It gave me to receive your lovely letter." Miss Chester1 wrote later to her brother, and made this sisterly observation: "Every Wednesday afternoon have lectures In Philosophy. It I had a shirt here to make for you, I would make It while I am healing these lectures. They aro very Interesting, see Thursdays, ws have a rare fuss parsing. It takes us mors than three hours to pars Ore lines In common composition." "&hli tmaktng under ths eye of tht lec turer In philosophy would have been mors Interesting, perhaps of mors tasting value. -New York 0uf I WW f BERLINSKY ACCEPTS PLANS Banian Captain Agrees to American Propo sition for Dismantling Ship.

Negotiations between the United States nd Japan regarding the disposition of the crew of the Russian armed transport Lena while the vessel is Interned at ,8an Fran' Cisco, it Is said, will take place in Toklo Regarding the action of this government in permitting the Lena to dtsurnt, Japanese Minister Takuhlra auld today: I took pleasure In cabling to my aovcrn ment the details of the Lena Incident and the prompt action of the American govern ment in the matter. While, of course. It Is for my government to Indicate Its views in the matter, I doubt not that the prompt ness of the American officials will cause satisfaction to the authorities at Toklo. I received today a telcarnm from the Japanese consul geenrnl at San Francisco aenying mat there had been tne slightest friction between himself and the American oltlcials.

Boston Hers No Ship. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16. The United States cruiser Boston-returned today from its short cruise outside of this harbor. It Is not reported as having sighted any for elgn naval vessels. In speaking of its trip Admiral Goodrich said: There had been so many conflicting ru mors that 1 felt that it was advlxahle for the HoHton to cruise up and down tne coast It keDt me closely Informed of lis move' ments by means of its hystem of wireless telegraphy. The Russian transport Lena, which reached this port in a weather-stuined Con dition, is being painted a brilliant black Last night the wardroom officers of the Lena were given a dinner on board of the New York by the wardroom officers of the latter, the flagship's band giving a concert. The board of inspection appointed by Rear Admiral Goodrich has completed Its Inspection of the Lena boilers and machin ery.

All express the ex pectancy that the Russian auxiliary cruiser Korea will be here soon. It la understood that Commodore Goodrich received Import ant cable dispatches last night, but it was impossible to get evert an Inkling of the contents. It Is" believed they Included defi nite instructions to the commodore, should the Korea or other Russian ships put In here for any purpose. The opinion Is ex pressed by naval men that once Russian vessels get in here they will not get out again until the war ends. H. M.

CAPITAL DAYAT STATE FAIR Pierre and Mitchell Send Larue and Enthuslastle Delegations to Yankton. YANKTON. S. D.. Bept. 16.-(Speclal Tele- gram.The state fair closed today with an Immense attendance. The weather was perfect. The feature of the day was the rivalry between Pierre 'and Mitchell. Both cities were strongly represented and the grandstand at the grounds was the scene of great enthusiasm. Storms of cheers for tho contesting towns swept repeatedly over the stand. Prof. Castllane, In at tempting to leap the gap, turned his front wheel too far and was thrown through the air, striking on his head and neck, dislo cating his collarbone. The balloonist in the ascent took a hard fall, caused by the balloon bursting. He was not seriously in jured. He fell about sixty feet. Tho races of the day were the best of the fair. The big race was the free-for-all pace or trot. This race was won by Lola Mix In three straight heats. Honest Abe took, second money and Lady Almoneer third. Time: tXlV,. 2:17. tM. Ths second race was the 8:00 trot Ths third heat of this race was declared dead by the judges, as the driver of Gansela held his horse on tho stretch. Tho driver was fined and suspended. Gansela won the lest three heats of the race and took first money. Charming Prince was second and Blue Range third. In the running race Dashaway took first, Eagle second and Iron Chancellor third. In county exhibits first place was awarded to Faulk county and second to Hughes. i Ths fair has been a great success finan cially and otherwise. Ths management was greatly pleased by ths attendance on ths last two days. This Is the last fair that will be held in Yankton under the present lease, but strong attempt will be made In the legislature to retain ths fair at Yank ton. J AMENDMENTS IN SOl'TH DAKOTA stltntloa in Soma Parttenlars. PIERRE. S. D., Bept. 1 (Special.) The secretary of stats Is beginning to prepare for ths coming election, ths first move being to prepare tho gampls ballots on constitutional questions which will bo sub. mltted to the voters at the coming election. Three such propositions will be submitted. One Is the capital removal question, in which the people of the state are called upon to any whether the capital shall be moved to Mitchell or be left at Pierre, Its present location. Another Is to grant to the attorney gen eral the Sams salary which Is paid to ths other stats, officers. In the beginning of statehood, while the salary of the other state officials was fixed at I1.S00, that of the attorney general was fixed at tl.OOO. Ths amendment which I to be submitted puts them on an equality. ' The third amendment Is for the change In the loaning of state school funds, allow ing loans up to $5,000 to be made to any one person or company, but limiting the amount to be loaned on real estate mortgages to not to exceed one-third the actuul value of the lands on which the loan Is made. , ' These three amendments will be submit ted on a separate ballot from that on which the general ticket Is placed, and It Is the duty of the election judges to pre sent one of the constftutlonal ballots to each Voter at the same time he Is given his general ballot, and by this means the con stitutional questions will receive a heavier vote than they did many times when placed on the same ballot with the general ticket, In which case msny of the questions su submitted received less than 60 per cent of the total voto cast, the voters stopping when they had marked the general tloket and allowing the constitutional questions to go by default. TEN MILES 0F EXTRA DRY Wines Stored la Immense rim Which Honeycomb the Soli of Rhelms, France. The famous city of Rhelms Is associated In our minds so closely with its wonderful old cathedral which stands for all time as the apotheosis of gothlc architecture and with the romantic career of Joan of Arc, ta any nothing of the famous Jackdaw, that few people remember that this wonderful old city Is the center of the champagne trade and the home of the most celebrated champagne firms In the world. Ths olty directory of Rhelms gives ths names of ninety establishments for ' the making of champagne. Over twenty Arms are employed In furnishing the corks alone, while almost as many more are engaged in the machinery used In thetlndustry. The wine Is stored In Immense caves botb In Rhelms and at Epernay, sixteen miles distant, In the heart of the vineyard, dis trict. Some of the caves extend for miles under the c!ty( and parts of Rhelms are" literally honeycombed with them. Often they are three stories deep under the street level, so ad to vary the temperature. On descends to them by a splendid flight of 116 steps, cut out of the chalk soli. This stair case Is over sixty feet in depth and is lighted by electricity. The caves are more than ten miles long and are constantly being added to.' There are . about 200 large rooms In them and somo of the corridors are over a quarter of n mile In length. These are named after cities and distinguished statesmen and one strolls along avenues bearing such names as Cnrnot, Thiers and Washington or London, Paris, Edinburgh and New York. It Is not unusual to have as much as 52ft,- 000 gallons of champagne, or 13,000,000 or 14,- 000,000 bottles, stored In these, cellars at one time. Instead of the dust-covered bottles and cobwebs and Spiders we are apt to as sociate with wine cellars, everywhere H Is as spotlessly clean and fresh as a New England housekeeper would wish her kitchen to be. Even the r.ns arts are not neglected In these wonderful, cool depths. In several rooms fine bas-reliefs are sculptured In the chalk. La fete de Bacchus, un sou per au dix-hul-tlme slecle and Sllenua, for ex ample, are by well known sculptors. The workmen are all well paid and each re celves besides a bottle of red wine in the morning and another In the afternoon, to keep the blood warm while working be neath the earth, as they do most of the doy. v The larger firms of champagne makers at Rhelms use only the Juice from the first pressing of the grape for champagne, leav ing the second and third pressings for In' ferlor wine. or. as It ia called, vln de aulte. The Juice is taken In barrels to the cellars and poured Into larger vats, one of the vat holding as much as 800 gallons. The wine remains in these vats from October until January, when the mixing takes place. This Is somewhat of a state secret In each establishment, as each wine master has his own method for, producing from wine of different vintages the flavors for which his particular brands are famous. This mixture s called the curves, and It stands ti.ga.in until April or June, when the great opera. tlon of filling the bottles takes place. The mlse en boutellles, or tlrage, Is great sight. The rapidity with which It Is accomplished by the many workmen Is marvelous. There, are thousands of bottles which first of all must bs tested and then well cleaned. This latter process Is done by machines. Then the long pipes are ex tended to the bottles from the mighty vats that hold the cuvee, and as the bottles ass filled, . corked and wired they are lowered In baskets, by a system of endless chains, to the caves below, where they are staokod in precise order in a compaot and solid mass, yet so that each separate ons may e taken out without disturbing ths others. These bottles are now loft from one to two years, when they aro put In small racks, necks downward, and for two or three months each bottle Is given dally a gentle little shake by an experienced work man. In this way the sediment la brought gradually to the cork and the wine becomes perfectly clear. One man can shake 30.000 bottles In a day. It seems a hopeless task, yet It is all accomplished with great sys tem and ease. In some of the caves the men are allowed to use both hands in shak ing bottles, but It Is usual for the workman to use one hand only, and the result is supposed to be better. Then comes the degorgement. or removal of the sediment. By some firms an In genlus system of freeslng ths neck of the bottle is used to accomplish this, and ths sediment la taken out in a solid frosen mass. By many others, when the bottles are opened a most skillful manner of pressing tho thumb over the open mouth, letting tbe sediment out and losing little of the w(ne, Is the usual method. This re quires very great care, as no deposit must be left and as little wins as possible lost. The men who perform this work receive $S to $1 a day. Booklovers' Magaalns. New I'so for Maala.

"And so this president of ours Is a Caesar, a dan gerous man who wants to kill you, both where you are and where you ain't," ex claimed Speaker Joseph O. Cannon, In his discussion of President Roosevelt in con nection with militarism, the coast defences and the Increases of the navy. The speaker arrived In company with Congressman Ilemenway and addressed a large crowd at the ColUeum. V Militarism he pronounced a veritable bogeyman. The president had, he declared, done nothing worse In the way ' of a Caesar than to reduce the army from 100,000 to 69,000, and the fact that this num ber gives only about one soldier to each 1,400 persons In the country he did not re gard the outlook as dangeroua In that di rection. Returning to the coast defenses he said the Spanish war had demonstrated their necessity, and spoke of the fear felt at one. time during' the war that Boston might be attacked.

In his consideration of the navy the speaker referred to the Russo-Japanese war, saying that Japan was apparently getting the best of It on account of Its navy arid because Its ships were manned by sailors who could handle a gun. Ja pan's navy, he went on. Is very expensive, but It is an object lesson to the world. Continuing, he said: I "Do you know that a good navy for the United States l the most economical thing that we can have? It Is equivalent to a bond of faith for peace, because we have a navy that can protect our coast line and strengthen our diplomacy.
