JfDGK PARKER'S HAIR. Recently some fellow who didn't have red hair asserted . that Judge Alton Urooks Parker, the Democratic candi date for President of the United i' tales, was not red-headed. Us ten, to -vi hat the affable gentleman from Ksopus hag. to gay , about his own locks: "When I waa your age my hair waa much redder than yours It was fiery red, In fact, and In consequence my fighting; ' Instincts were over developed while I was In school. In the country districts where I learned my 'three R'a,'. It happened that I was the only red-haired youth. When I first ! i tended school the boy had a good "Hi ot fun shouting 'sorrel' and 'red p' at me. It never failed to rouse my anting blood,, and I lived a strenuous '" ; - - This was said to a representative of access, who asked: 'IJut you wouldn't . a ve changed the color of your hair ould youT' "No,'i Indeed." said the judge, "red ir is all right My daughter has It . ml my little grandson's hair there Is s red e can be.. They say that It IB a an ot high- temper, but It Is also a sn ot numerous excellent qualities." Now, who will deny that the Demo cratic champion. Is red-headed. He has ' ?en through" the rub If as a boy he a dubbed "sorrel tops" "brick-top," ready"; and the like. A person does i.ot necessarily have to have a shock of red hair to be red-headed. Some red-headed folks have coal-black hair. Any one who knows Senator Ben Tlll jnan, of South Carolina, would not deny t hat he 1 red-headed. This is the day or the red-head, and ; t U no UHe lo argue that It is not . A MODERN INSTANCE.

'y , ram .wmr.V?- 1 Tho past week has. been perhaps the bloodiest and most strenuous sine bo, tUltles opened, having been marked by almost continuous fighting. The latest rjiv- - - i indicate that the Japanese are making gain everywhere, and that Kuropat- kln, whose offensive tactics seemed t to have proved disastrous, is reported to bo steadily failing back, fighting dog gedly, la a desperate afltort to prevent the utter rout of his array,. White the three Japanese armies suffered some slight Initial reverses, a summary ofj1Bthi tot Russian losses will exceed 0, generally attended the r" inere nae uwu ululu -..v.--slon to the fighting, altn"ouKh he dis patches clearly point out the final rout of the Russian and their retreat across ihe Hun river, In which event there will ikely be a brief cessation of tho fight- ig. I het a U no. doubt but that the itunsliins have suffered heavily. Fieldl Marshal Oyama estimates tho Russian losses as thirty thousand, and these fig ures have been practically confirmed from Russian sources. ' Ther ha bean little new of Interest from Port Arthur, the operations around Mukden occupying the centre of the stage. An Incident which promised compli cations waa the seisure of mall for the United States cruiser Cincinnati, which waa aboard the British steamer Cat chas. It was claimea in a re port, said to have been Inspired by the naval authorities, that packages were found addressed to the Japanese government, containing valuable mili tary, financial and political information, which came, within the Russian inhibi tion as contraband of war. This ex planation seems to have "set the mat ter at rest, for the time being at least, no steps having been taken by the Unit ed States, though a strong protest will probably be lodged with .the Russian government. Altogether the events of the week have remarkable significance. Tnat Kuropatkln, with an army enthused by the prospect of the first offensive campaign, well equipped, closely in touch with a base of supplies, and out numbering the enemy, according to Russian sources, by 25.000, should meet with such overwhelming repulse, has brought about a feeling ot deep gloom at St. Petersburg, which rapidly sue ceedlng reverses are not calculated to dispel. For the first time. It is reported from a high source, since the war began, the Csar has begun to, despair of the outcome. Mr. Pegram A. Bryant, who has for some years been the local editor of The Btatesvlllo Landmark, has resigned that position and formed a connection with The Textile Excelsior, ot Char lotte. He is a younger brother of Mr. H. E. C. Bryant, of The Observer, and has been, under the best newspaper training. With his ambition and ex perience he is certain to be heard Ot n the newspaper world, and. The Ob server welcomes hlin -to -the. Charlotte field. His successor on The landmark Is Mr. J. A. Sharpe, of Reldsvllle, a graduate of Trinity College and a young gentleman of talent, who will do his part In sustaining the superior repu tation of that paper. Referring to the cases brought up by The Washington Post and The Colum bia State, of the rabbit which bit a man and the calf which gave a man hydrophobia. The Norfolk Virglnlan- Pllot tells of a case in Us. own experi ence and which fell under its own ob servation In which a hand fiddler whip ped a bull-dog. Which makes us. re gret that we have ever said anything at all. There should and no doubt will be a large audience to hear Senator Sim mons to-night. Those who listen to him will be entertained and uplifted, and a large attendance Is but his desert. PERSONALS. The Movements of a Number of Peo - pie, visitors ana utners.

It is very likely that this will be the last day of this term of Superior Court, as Judge W. R. Allen has only a few minor matters to attend tob efore he will have concluded; the business. The reading of the memorial to the late Col.

Before tne severe fighting on October 19, Oeneral Oka's army burled 1000, making . the. total number of Russians buried by the Jap anese, with Nodsul army, still to hear from (,500c Applying the usual catca latlon and makln reasonable allow ance for the fighting of the 14th and up to and Including October M, Jost V &00 men. Kstlamte of the total Jap anese losses are not possible, i but, they are small In comparison with the fright ful losses' of the Russians. Reports ' dispatched late yesterday from the field are In the following' chronological order: 4 "The main force of the right army, which had already occupied Chouohia- fun heights, reached a line on the Shakhe river, but one division of the enemy continues to offer a stubborn re sistance. The centre army has reached Its objective and has been heavily en gaged sine the morning or uctoDer to. On the morning of October 15 the enemy in front of the left army continued holding its position north ot Shahopo and Lamuntun offering a strong re sistance. The centre column Is engaged in taking saophe and the main boay or the right column Is advancing against Lamuntun and is attacKing tnat pow tlon. The enemy has six batteries be tween Shahono and Sugangtal, which are vigorously shelling the attacking column and our position at Llnchlenpo, but the bombardment is not strong enough to prevent our advance. On Oc tober 11, the left column of the cen tre army lost 201 killed and wounded. The casualties to ourselves and the. Russians and the number of trophies captured by the left army follows: uurlng the five days from October 10 lo October 14, Inclusive, our losses were ibout 2,500 killed and wounded, offi cers Included. During the four days from October 10 to October 13. the number of corpses left by the enemy and burled by us reached 2,000. The enemy's dead after the battle of Octobei 14, were very numerous. Tne prisoners taken numbered 80. The principal trophies were 30 guns and many rifles, uniforms and accountrements. The latter are still uicounted. There are some forces of the enemy on the right bank of the Shakhe river In front of the main strength of th right and centre armies, but no battle on a great scale hns occurred. The forces of the enemy at Shnhopo ana Lamuntun, facing the left army, havt been captured. On the afternoon of Oc tober 15, a force ot the enemy appeared near Santaokangtszu and continued to offer resistance until sundown, portions of our centre and left armies engaging them. CZAR ORDERED THE ADVANCE. Russian Prisoners Say, Kuropatkln Received the Order September 87,. ami Began His Disastrous March Hoped to Relieve Port Arthur. Toklo, Oct. 16, 8 p. m. According to statements made by Russian prisoners, General Kuropatkln was ordered by Emperor. Nicolas to make a stand a Mukden and to assume the aggressive as speedily as possible, in order to re lieve the Port Arthur garrison. This order, the prisoners say. reached Muk- len on September 27 and uenerai .uro patkln, in obedience to It, began his disastrous southern advance movement. An extended report dealing with the statements of these prisoners follows; According; to statements made to of ficers of the centre army by Russian prisoners whom they had captured, the enemv had received Information that the strengtn or tne garrison at rurl Arthur was being daily reduced and, that the garrison was In a disastrous; condition. Fresh Russian re-enforce-1 ments were constantly arriving in Mancnuria irom curopc unu ! strenffth of the forces under General Kuropatkln in the neignoornooa .0' - ... . . Mukden had reached to over nine army corps. Thereupon, the prisoners said, the Russian Emperor, on September 27, ordered Kuropatkln not to retire a step beyond Mukden, and directed him, cir cumstances permitting, to assume the offensive as quickly as possible and drive' the Japanese out of southern Manchuria, In order to rescue the Port Arthur garrison. 1 ; , Acting under this command. General KuroDatkin advanced with his -whole strength to the south of Muken, divid ing his forces into three columns, tne centre, right and left. The centre col umn, composed of the First, Fourth and Fifth Corps, under the command oi General Sololeff, advanced toward Tungshankou and Llnhua Mountain. The left column, which was composed of two corps, under General StakelbUrg, advanced against the Japanese right BRIEFS. Minor Happenings In and About the City events oi a Mr. 8. P.

Congress, was not a large assemblage. In fact, so far as the cor respndent has, been, able t gather, the ambitiously Inclined Republicans of the district have not been falling over them selves in eagerness for the prise or tnis congressional nomination, Tbey rather "fear the Greeks bearing gifts" in this shape, for they are put up against the tough proposition of Patterson's ma jority of 8,000 over Slocomb lit ml - It was said yesterday morning, In advance of the convention," that the nomination was tendered, -as it were, on a salver to Mr. Johrv Underwood, of this city,, but ho had business elsewhere.) if this wat so (the correspondent does not vouch for It), It would look as If Mr. spears did not covet the honor, but was hero ically, leading a "forlorn nope " for the good of tho "grand old party."
