Under co er ol durknexa this uioiiiiiik Admiral Toko maiJe another deeralu attempt to holtle up 1 Iih HiiHsian flt-et in furl Ar thur, hut he failed aiiain, and when alter daylight Vice- Admiral Makaroff steamitd out U gi vw but ile, the Japanese com maii.lei reluaed the challenge and Sailed aay. The Japanese practieally related the tactics ol February 24 tjy semliiiK lour slnpn, preceiled by a torpedo boat flotil la, with the exception that the warslnps tins nine Merit armed with llotchkms Ktiiia lor the purpose ol keeping off the KiiHimi torpedo-boat deslioyers. 'Ihe enemy's attempt waa dixcovered by hicaiis ol the ehore searcbliKhis, and a heavy lire w.a opened Irom the Satiet ies ami (rom two KUiiboatH which were Ktnnliiia' the entruine to the harbor. The HtiBsiaii torpedo boat dent royer till til Man oiiuiiln 011 ruiitini duty, anil to the ilnli and lierve of her coiniuander. Lieutenant Kirinski, is chiefly due the complete defeat of the plana ol the Jap anese. He at once made straight for the on romi'iK ships utxler a hail ol fire bom the HotchkiHS K"n( "'"I torpediH'd the leailliitf ahii, which nheered off. follow ed hv the olheia, three of them beiiitf plied up on Ihe t hora under Cioldun Hill and one under ihe liL'litiintiNe. Thehlim then enitiK1''' 'he entire six torpediehiiBta ol the enemy, coining out Irom a ternlic lilit with neve 11 killed and her coiiiiiiainler and 12 of her com plement wounded, but on iheJapaDene side only one tioat'screw was saved. In addition, accoidihg to unofficial reports, It is believed the Japanese lost two tor-peilo-hoate. 'I he Japanese emitters which support ed the attack exchanged shots with the batteries and then drew off, after which Vice-Admiral Makaroff took a steam launch and examtn. d the tiie-ehips. An hour later the Japanese torpedo not ilia, followed by Vice-Admiral Togo's fleet, came up from a Southerly diiection. Just at daybreak, Vice-Admiral Maka roll with his fleet sailed out to engage the enemy, but after the ships and bat teries hail bied a lew long-diMance shots, Vice-Admiral Togo decided to decline the lasue, and disappeared to the south ward. The news of the repulse of Vice-Admi rl Togo's second attempt to block Port Arthur created 111 lie u rejoicing in the Uusataii capital, and among all classes Ihe gallantry of the bilni and her com mander is the subject of high praise; but above all, Ihe muial effect of Vice Admi ral .Makarotra willingness to engage the enemy, showing that he considered him self strong enough to fight, pioduced a splendiil impression. In high official circles this new effort to bottle up the Kusaian fleet is looked upon as meaning only one itiiug, namely, that the Japanese, as stated by the As sociated 1'iess 011 March 24, are now preparing for a heavy landing of troops in the Uulf of Liao Tung, either at Nm Chwang or on the went coast of Manciiu rian neutral zone, to effect which in safety the immobility of Vice-Admiral Maka rolfs fleet is abi-oluldly essential, while the transports are being conveyed around the southern end ot the penin sula. If the attempt had succeeded it would have required several days aj, least to blow up the steamers and clear away the wreckage, during which time the Jap anese would be assured of nou-interfer-ence in the carrying out of their pur poses. The failure ol the Japanese this morning may seriously hamper their plans, as the ice in the Liao river is go ing out, and when the river is iree from ice its month can be easily mined. The conviction continues to grow here that the Japanese have concluded that it would be inadvisable to make a direct frontal attack on Manchuria from Coiea against the whole Kussian army, and hat iMyill be necessary to land a flank ing column irj 4he Gulf of Liao Tung to divide riie atteiffon of the Russians and if possible to seize the railroad and cut oil Port Arthur. The ground above NiuChwang is perfectly familiar to the Japanese, who occupied it for a year dur ing the Chino-Japanese war. - (Some experts even go so far as to ex press the belief that Vice-Admiral Togo was covering a movement of troops in the Uulf of Liao Tung this morning, and that, therefore, he was compelled to ex ercise great caution and to decline the Kussian offer of an engagement. Another view of the Japanese Admi ral's purpose, which is less entertained, is that be believes bombardments from Pigeon Bay would be disastrous to the Kussian fleet if it wee compelled to re main in the harbor, he having ascertain ed from observation that the Kussian ships always pass out during the high angle bombardments, and that a big shell dropped on a battleship could easily pierce the deck, and, exploding, might completely destroy it. Hl'SSlANS ARB BEPCLSED. Bt. Petersburg, March 29. General Kouropatkin, in his first report to the Emperor from the scene of the war, an nounced that otlensive land operations had taken place against the Japanese upon the sixth anniversary of the occu pation of Port Arthur ry the jcussians. These operations took the form of a cav alry attack yesterday by six companies of Cossacks led by General Mishtchen ko, against .our tquadcons of Japanese cavalry, wbii-b the general believed to be beyond Chong ju.but which ne tounu to be in occupation of that town. I respite a cross tire which General Mishuhenko cleverly directed against the enemy, be pys a tribute to the te nacity and bravery of the Japanese, who only ceased to fire after the combat, which lasted for half an .hour, llofore the Kussianscould follow up their ad vantage, three Japanese squadrons gal loped toward the town. Two of them succeeded in entering, while the third was driven back in disorder, men and horses falling. The fire maintained on the town was so destructive that the Japanese were unable to make an effectual return. Further Japanese reinforcement ar rived an hour later, and in view of the suneriority of the enemy, General Misht chenkodetermined to retire, doing so without embgrrassment, although he carried witb him three killed and 16 wounded. General Minhtchenko's Cossacks have been endeavoring lor some days to come in contact with the Japanese patrols, but the latter refused to combat. The skirmish of today will have the effect of encouraging the Russians to re tard as much as possible the advance of the Japanese army. General Kouropatkin' dispatch re porting General Mishtchet)ko's opera tions as published does not give the place of its origin, but it is presumed that the commander-in-chief is either at Liao Yang or en route to Niu Chwang. ilow To Trent Keportrrs. I shsuld like to tuopoae a high school for the education of all men od the sub ject ol "How to Treat a Reporter." It would end all friction. Lei the public first understand that the reporter is bound to have Ihe news at all risks. If he cannot get it at first hand be will take it at second, or third, or tenth. He is not going back to tiis editor with a hang (log look and say he has failed. Never! He ill take fake first, and take chances of being caught or vindicated. On reputable paers, if caught fakiug, he soon loses his job. So reporter in his ight senses want to fake. He wants the truth every time. Then why bide it? Why insult bim? Wby increase his labors a thousand fold? Why keep him out on the still ljunt all night when by treating him in a common, sensible manner you could sot Mm right in a sec ond and have early copy for the compos ing room. Manv persons look down on-reporters as il they were inferior creatures. They forget that 0J times in 100 the newsgath erers are of higher caste than those from whom they seek information. Keporiers are not looking lor anything good about people, for the public would never stop to read it. They want all the bad about men and women they can dig out, and it is the bad things about bad people that make the newspaper interesting. Through long mingling witb the evil classes reporters become contaminated, and it must not be wondered at if there should be an occusional fall from grace. I do not know any reporters who are abgels, and I do know some who are devils with painted wings, but take them all in all they are the best set of fellows in the world, workingjike mad for their employers, spendingliberally, living merrily and ever eager to do a lav r and forget it.

E ILIT fi is the Most Important In buying food-producis, several things are tov be thought of i. e., Economy, Results, Easy Handling, Reliability, but the most important is Healjh. Health means everything. In buying clothes, shoes, hats, furniture, etc., if the buyer is deceived and gets an imitation the only harm is loss of money. In buy ing food-products, if imitations are sup plied, there is not only a loss of money, but perhaps an injury to health which is beyond price.
