valued at $20etc, besides two dozen
jars of canned fruit, which were taken
from the fruit house. This burglary took

with him, heard a disturbance down
stairs about that time, but thought it
"was some of the' inmates moving about
the house. ,;
About 4 a. m. the house of Attorney

Yates was sleeping down stairs and
was awakened by the noise of rattling

caught a glimpse of the burglar, which
was either a woman or a very small
man, with a long gossamer or raincoat
on, in a rush that was made to get out
of the house. The footprints from
the kitchen door across the back yard,
when examined the next morning, j ap

Nothing was taken from Mr, Yates'

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
St. Petersburg, March 29. The Em
peror Has received a aispatcn xrom
General Kuropatkin giving a lengthy
report from- General : Mishtichenko,
dated at 10 p. m.
March 28, which says I
an important .a engagement took place
near the town ot Cheng Ju in whieh
the Russians were defeated, retiring in
perfeet order. General MishtiehenKo 's
report follows:
"Having learned that fonr squadrons
of the enemy were posted five versts be
yond Cheng Ju, Mareh 28, six compan
ies marched to Cheng Ju. as soon as
our scouts approached the town the
enemy opened fire from behind the wall.
Two- squadrons promptly dismounted
and occupied the heights 600 yards dis
tant, and the engagement ensued.
; "In the town a eompany of infantry
and a squadron of cavalry were lying
in ambush. Our men were reiaforced
by three companies and attacked the
Japanese with cross fire. Notwithstand
ing this and our commanding position
thei Japanese glalantly held their
ground and it was only after a fierce
tight of a half hour's duration that the
Japanese ceased fire and sought refuge
in the houses.
"Soon afterward three squadrons of
the enemy were seen advancing along
the Kasan road at a lull gallop toward
the town, which two of the squadrons
succeeded in entering, while the third
fell back in disorder under repeated
vollevs from our troops.
"An hour and a "half af ter the be-
einnintr of the engagement four com
" . . -rr l
pames were seen on jne r.asan roau,
hastening to the attack. I gave the
order to mount, and the . entire force,
with the covering of the squadron, ad
vanced in perfect order and formed in
....... l'Ii n.1 J ,
a; line oemna me dui. me nuuuucu
were olaced in front, and the retire
ment was carried one with the deliber
ation of a parade.
The Japanese squadron wnicn was
thrown into disorder was evidently un-
hln to ocennv the hill, which we iad
just evacuated, and their infantry ar
rived too late.
"It is sppposed the Japanese had
Iuavv losses in men and - horses. Our
side had three officers severely wound
od Stenanoff and Androoke in the
chest - and Vasselvitch in the stomach
Schilnikoff was less seriously wounded
in the arm. but did not leave tne field
"Three Cossacks were killed and
t-H' wra wounded, including five
seriously." ,
Jananese Version of Battle.
Tokio, 9 p. m., March 29. A mixed
froee of Japanese cavalry and infantry
attacked and dispersed a force of Rus
sians at TvoaJyn. near Ping Yang, Sun-
Hr mnminir. estimated in . number at
600. The Russians offered strong re
sistance at first, but finally fell back,
abandoning their position. The Japan
ese sustained a loss of one officer and
one sergeant killed, and two officers
and ten privates .wounded. The Rus
sians are reported to nave Jen inree
dead behind, but to have carried off a
number of wounded. It is possible the
above is another version of the engage
ment at Crong Ju. The name Tyonjyn
is not ; given on the maps. . . ,

AVashineton, March 29. The Japan
ese legation has received from Tokio
Admiral Toffo's report respecting tne
attempt to bottle up Fort Artbur.
About 3:30 a. ra. of March 27, the bot-tling-up
squadron, composed of four
shins, escorted by a" torpedo flotilla
reached the outside' or t'ort Arxnur,
and, in spite of the terrific fire the
ah it made their war into the inner
roadstead, one after the other.
The steamer Chio Jdaru, anchored at
a position aoout a nan capie xrom
Golden Hill, blew up itself-and sank
The Fukiu Maru-passed a little ahead
of the Chyo Mam, and while laying ner
anchor, was' torpedoed and sank. .The
Hacht Hiko Maru anchored to the left
of the Fukiu Maru and blew up itself
and ank. The Yoneyama Maru, col -
tiding with the stern of one of the
enemy's destroyers, passed - oy tne
others and anchored in the roadstead.
At this moment the ship was torpedoed
by .the enemy and was carried toward
the left side of the shore and sank side
ways.; The 'result of the aetion being
there is some apace left between the
Hachi Hiko and the Yoneyama Maru.
It is a matter of regret that the road
stead eould not be completely closed up. '
- The easualities were as follows: Two
officers and two sailors killed and two
officers wounded. The remainder were
safely taken in by our torpedo flotilla.
Although both of our flotillas were sub
jected to terrific fire not the slightest
damage was done to any of the boats.

carries the whole burden of re

of common ailments of the girls or boys
jare concerned. The cost of the doctor's
visits are very often much too great.
At such times the mother is invited
to write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, $of Buf

is given free. . Correspondence is held
strictly confidential.

is nervous, dyspeptic, irritable, and she
.is in need of a uterine tonic and nervine,
a strength builder to fit her for the
ordeal. No matter .how healthy or

A year ago I was taken ick
and tried the three doctors in our
town," writes airs. Arcnie jot
don, of Qak Street, BoontonNew
Jersey.! I'- They 'did not helpme
any. One said I nad one ining,
another said I had something.,
else, and the last oms toldt me ;
be.couid -not tell just watt was
the matter with me, but ;advised
me to go to a hospital. I read
about Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription and about the case of a
lady in Kansas, very much like
my own. I suffered so, could
hardly; endure to have any one
walk 'sicross the floor, as the least
jar hurt me. Sent to our drug
store and got a bottle of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite "Prescription, ;
and when I had taken one bottle
began to feel better. I took five
and a half bottles, and to-day I can work
all day and feci no bad results. None
of my neighbors thought a year "ago
that I would be here to-day to write any
thing, hut I say, every woman who suf
fers should never give up until Doctor
Pierce's medicines, have been given
fair trial." ?
" Your wonderfulmedicine, Favorite
Prescription, t haa helped me greatly in
time 01 euff eying," writes Mrs. Minta
Wright, of Edwards, Indiana. "Last
winter I was unable to do my work, was
to be confined in February, and a lady
in Illinois wrote and told me about your
medicine.-' I used three bottles of 'Fa
vorite Prescription, and will say I had
the easiest and quickest confinement I
ever had. Had three children before,
and would suffer from twenty -four .tq
thirty-six hours before birth, but this
time only two hours. Have a fine babr
girl and she is the most healthy one of
all. I am still using the ' Favorite Pre
scription ' as a tonic"
