"Better health is all I wanted, and cure if possible. Lydia E. Pink - ham's 'Vegetable Compound brought me health and happiness in a few short months. I feel like another person now. My aches and pains have left me. Life seems new and sweet to me, sad everything seems pleasant and easy. "Six bottles brought me health, and was worth more than months under the doctor's care, which really did not benefit me at all. I am satisfied there is no medicine so good for sick women tan your Vegetable Compound, and I advocate it to my lady friends in need of medical help." - Mits. B. A.

Only One Tion -Commissioned Oflioer and Eleven Mon Escaped to Tell the Tale of the ,Death hall In a Itusaian. Sortie Against the Xanagawa Regiment -'lie Japanese Blockade of ?Pert Ari..ur Fully Effective. London, Oct. 4. -The Daily Tele- graph's Nagasaki correspondent, cabling under date of Sept. •25, says: "'Terrible artillery conflicts are add- ing to the horrors of the situation at Port Arthur, On. Sept. 22 and 23 the Russians made sorties against position held by the Kanagawa regi- ment and desperate fighting ensued: "The Japanese ,force was practical- ly annihilated, only one non-com- missioned officer and eleven men re- mained alive out of the 4,000 who went into the engagement. The Jap- anese tunnel into Port Arthur was completed on Sept. 24, and was immediately used. The result is un- known." The Standard's Tokio, correspon- dent reports that at a conference of bankers it was decided to issue im- mediately a third domestic war loan at $40,000,000, completing the loans for the current fiscal year. Small Outpost Fights. Small outpost fights constitute the sum of the activities reported from the vicinity of Mukden. The Japan- ese blockade of Port Arthur is so ef- fective that Gen. Stoessel has been unable to inform the War Office at St. Petersburg of the situation. The report of the arrival of the Russian armored cruiser Bayan of the Port Arthur squadron at Hanchau Bay, near Shanghai, has no official confir- mation. Admiralty Doesn't Believe It. St. Petersburg, Oct. 4. -The Ad- miralty expresses incredulity at the report that a Russian warship, be- lieved to be the armored cruiser Ba- yan, has arrived at Hanchau Bay, near Shanghai. The reports circulated abroad dur- ing the last few days that the Em- peror had received most pessimistic reports from Lieut. -Gen. Stoessel are denied. On the contrary, the feel- ing about Port Arthur is more hope- ful, owing to the failure of the be- siegers to make headway. Fighting At Port Arthur. Che 1'oo, Oct. 4,-A private letter received here yesterday from Port Arthur, dated Sept. 23, gives furth- e'r details of the fighting from Sept. 19 to Sept, 22. The attack began with a heavy bombardment directed against nearly all the Russian out- posts and many of the forts. The shelling of the redoubts protecting the water supply of Port Arthur was tremendous. Nightfall, Sept. 19, found the waterworks redoubts -re- duced to mere heaps of , debris. The garrisons of the redoubts thereupon retreated safely to the main fortifi- cations, under the cover of the dark- ness. Bombardment and Assault. At 4 o'clock the same afternoon, Sept. 19, the Japanese assault on "High Hill" began. The Japanese plan of attack never varied. First a bombardment and then an assault, and when repulsed 'a bombardment again and then another assualt. Tha desperate determination of the Jap- anese to capture this positive ptu e h s nos . on amounted to fanaticism, their ef- forts never ceasing during four days. One battalion of Japanese having re- treated into a valley, were exposed to the Russian sharpnel fire and were almost annihilated. She's Going Home. Constantinople, Oct. 4. -The Rus- sian volunteer fleet steamer Nijni Novgorod has passed the Bosphorus, homeward bound. Peace Conference. Boston, Oct. 4. -Secretary John Hay, representing the United States. spoke the words of welcome yester- day afternoon to the delegates to the International Peace Congress, which assembled in Tremont Temple for the first formal meeting of the thirteenth annual convention. Secretary Hay traced briefly the war history of the United States, and pointed out that the country's greatest men had been warm advocates of peace. He agreed with Tolstoi that religion is the remedy for war. Another Peace Conference. London, Oct. 4. -Sir Thomas Bar- clay, who has been prominently iden- tified with the movement for estab- lishing amity between nations, in- formed the Associated Press yester- day that the Government had under consideration the calling of another conference to extend the scope of The Hague convention prior to President Roosevelt's recent announcement of his desire to take action in that di- rection. "There is thus little difIi culty," Sir Thomas said, "about the adoption of the proposal of Presi- dent Roosevelt, and there is a possi- bility of either the American and. German Governments calling a con- ference jointly, or one may give way to the other." Whipping Yost For 'Tues. Copenhagen, Oct. 4.-A Ministerial crisis here, which had long been threatened, has been averted, assur- ances of support having been given by his colleagues to Minister of Jus- tice Alberti, who insisted on bring- ing in a late to re-establish the whip- ping post for thugs.
