Russians Admire the Cleanliness and Perfect Order of tlie Japanese Soldiers on the Field. Japanese Noted For Their Honesty. Mukden, Via Tien Tsin, Nov. 21. Since the Japanese failed in the at tack which they made on Poutiloff Hill, November 18, the old order of affairs has been resumed. There are frequent skirmishes, particular in the vicinity of the Russian center where both sides have daily clashed. There was an exchange of artillery fire during the greater part of No vember 20. It appears that the affair of No vember 18 was a reconnoissance in force and that had it been success ful it was to be followed by a general attack. The Japanese got within thirty paces of the Russian outer positions before being driven back. They left over a hundred soldiers dead on the field. The Russians are comfortable in their dugouts. The weather continues extremely cold. Berlin, Nov. 22. A dispatch to the Lokal Auzeiger from Mukden, says: The health of both armies are good. The Russians admire the cleanli i- f ness, perfect order and equipment of the Japanese. One does not see any trace of race hatred. It is a fact that the Japanese return through French intermediation all valuables found on dead Russians. This has made a deep impression here and is recipro cated. Port Arthur, Nov. 22. The Japa nese are now constructing coast de fense forts at Pigeon Bay, which is accepted as an" indication that they expect to be defending Port Arthur some day. MORE THAN FAIR. Read J. II.

Bold Thieves Touch the Pay Wagon For a Fortune Wuile Train Was Running. Po lice Believe Crime Was Committed By Circus Employees. No Trace of Rob bers Found. fc. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 19. While en route on a flat car between Green ville and Tarboro, N. C, early Sat urday morning, the ticket wagon of the Forepaugh & Sells Bros.' circus was entered and robbed of $30,000. The entrance to the wagon was ef fected by the use of the regular keys, which had been stolen from the treasurer of the circus. The robbery was not discovered until after the entire circus, which was traveling in three sections over the Atlantic Coast Line, had reached Tarboro. The ticket wagon was on the second section, and arrived at Tarboro at 1 o'clock Saturday morning. The first section reached there a half-hour earlier, and the third at 3 o'clock in the morning. It was 5 o'clock before the robbery had been discovered, and from that time on until late to-night, when the last report was received at Norfolk, a search of the people connected with the circus has been in progress. The iolice are holding a man and wo- j man, both performers, on suspicion oi having committed the robbery. It has been impossible so lar to secure the names ot these two people. Several theories are held by the nolice and circus people. One of these is that the robbery was torn- mitted while the train was in mo- tion, aud that the money was thrown ofi the train. Searching parties are at work all along the line between Tarboro and Greenville in an effort to find any trace of the money or of any person who m ght have left the train with it. Up to this lime no one has been missed from the circus crowd. Another theory is that the cash has been hidden in Tarboro by the robbers, and innumerable search warrants have been sworn out. Arm ed with thee, tbe regular police and special detectives are searching every ulace in Tarboro thought likely to conceal the money. There were a score of arests made during the day among the circus people. All apprehended were taken into custody on suspicion, and while in the town lockup their- belongings were searched at the show grounds. Absolutely no trace of the money has been found. Columbus, O., Nov. 19. A tele gram received this afternoon by Mrs. Lewis Sells, of Columbus, confirmed the story of the robbery of the Fore-paugh-Sells circus at .Tarboro, N. C. The amount secured by the rob bers wno neia up the ticket wagon was $30,000. No details of the robbery are given in the telegram. i Mrs. Sells is the wife of Lewis Sells, one of tle owners of the show and the message received by her asked that arrangements be made through aColumbus bank to provide money to pay off the employes of the circus,which closes the season at Tarboro to-night. Charlotte, N. C, Nov. 19. A dis patch to the Observer from Tarboro, is $2,500 reward is offered for the ap prehension of the person or persons who robbed the Forepaugh-Sells pay wagon.

Feels Espec ially Keenly the Charge That He Favors Social Equality of Races. Washington, Nov. 15. The first expression of President Roosevelt's view with reference to the South since his election by an overwhel ming majority one week ago was given to irank JMichinard, the Washington correspondent of the New Orleans Times-Democrat. Mr. Michinard sent his paper the following story with reference to his talk with the president: "As has been indicated in these dispatches, Mr. Roosevelt feels that the Southern people have entirely misunderstood his attitude towards them and that section of the union. He thinks the Southern press has been unduly harsh in its criticisms of administration policy, principally with reference to the views he holds concerning the treatment o the ne gro. "Regarding the negro, Mr. Roose velt holds to the opinions of Abra ham Lincoln. He believes that as there is no discrimination in busi ness because of religion, there should be none in politics because of race or color. 'The president feels especially keenly the charge made by a portion of the press that he favors social equality and miscegenation. Thepres ident has said that he who would ad vocate either of these would be an enemy to both races. His views on the negro question coincide fully with those of Judge Jones, former governor'of Alabama, a Confederate soldier and a Democrat. "His friendliness to theSouth,Mr. Roosevelt thinks, is clearly indicated by the character of the men whom he has appointed to office in the var ious Southern States. He has pro fessed in 'every instance an earnest de; ire to appoint the best Republi can available for the position. A further evidence of his kindly feel ing towards the South is his appoint ment of Gen. Luke Wright of Ten nessee to the office of Governor Gen eral of the Philippines, a position w hich the administration regards as equal in dignity and importance to a cabinet officer." EX-GOV.

A Prominent Georgia Democrat Makes the Suggestion. Says It Would Be a Politic and Graceful Thing For the South to Do. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 21. Julius Brown, son of the late' Joseph E. Brown, Georgia's war Governor, is out with a card proposing that the electors of all the Southern States cast their votes for Roosevelt and thereby make his election unani mous. v He makes the proposition, he says, because Mr. Roosevelt has been un justly attacked on the negro ques tion and about the Philippines, and in fact, upon " many public ques tions. He concludes his card by saying: "He is a good man, and half Southern, and we of the South ought to bo able to trust him.'Z Other prominent Democrats here express the opinion that it might be a politic as well as graceful thing for the Southern electors to do, espec ially in viewof the announcement that the President favors a new deal in appointing Federal officials for the next four years, where the present incumbents have served two or more terms. WHERE MILLIONS ARE MADE. A Interesting Letter That May Mean Much to Residents of Goldshoro -Probably there is not a reader of the Argus who has not heard of the fortunes made in the Beaumont oil fields. While the tales of fortunes quickly made are interesting, they are really not half as valuable to our readers as the following letter from L. K. Preston, president of the Caswell-Preston Drug Company, of Beaumont, one of the largest whole sale and retail houses in Texas. Mr. Preston writes: 'Enclosed you will find a letter that eaine to us unsolicited from J. C. Reeves. 770 Pearl St. I have known Mr. Reeves for several years. He is a reliable man and very hap py over his fortune. "About four years ago," writes Mr. Reeves, "I lost the hearing in my right ear and about three or four months ago my left ear became al most as bad. . In fact, I was so bad that people had to shout at me to make me hear. I-had about given up in despair all hopes of ever re covering my hearing when I saw that you recommended Hyomei. I used two bottles and can now hear inv watch tick with either ear, and my hearing is now all right. This deafness must have been caused from catarrh, for it is now cured. Hyomei certainly does what you claim for it." Hvomei has made many cures of catarrh, and in combination with Hyomei balm, of catarrhal deafness in Goldsboro and nearby towns.' J. H. Hill & Son give their personal guarantee to refund the money should it not give quick relief. The com- nlete Hyomei outht costs but one dollar while extra bottles can beob- tained for fifty cents.

CAPTURED BY BANDITS A PART OF SCHEME TO REACH LOVER. This Was the Aim of Miss Co relle, the Beautiful Youngf Army Nurse Who Sought the Handsome Officer Among the Japa nese Soldiers. Che Foo, Nov. 22. A romantic story develops around Miss Corelle. the Russian war nurse who is on her way to Japan. She refuses to talk,' but a reliable authority says her cap ture by the Chinese bandits who took! her into the Japanese lines was pari of her scheme to try and find her lover. The first reports said Miss Corelle had voluntarily entered the Japa nese lines. This now seems to be incorrect. Miss Corelle, it is now said, was a nurse during the Boxer rebellion and won the Stanisikaua medal. During that war she was wounded in the arm and received the St. George medal, because she continued to work when her wound was dressed. She is a remarkably handsome woman of 21 years of age. A young Russian officer fell in love with the. pretty nurse who re ciprocated his affection fully. Rec ently this officer was amon the mis sing, and it was believed he was wounded or a pris ner among the Japanese. In order to find him it is allegtd that Miss Corelle strolled from the Bussian camp mid very, cheeriully allowed some Chi uese ban dits to capture her. This was about ten days ago.. The next step in her scheme was to become a Japanese prisoner or reach their lines. The banUUs, it is asserted, allowed her to communi cate with trie French consul at New Chwaug, following which a detail of Japanese soldiers reached the end of their campaign and Miss Corelle was taken to New Chwaug. She tried to secure permission to go to Japan, and search for her lover, but the JaH anesegave her twenty-four, hours in which to leave the town, sa-pectin her of being a spy. The French consul at Chefoo ia now endeavoring fo to obtain per mission for Miss Corelle to nurse the wounded Russians in Japai:. Cody Bank Robber Captured. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 17 A spe cial to the Times from Cody Wyom ing, says: "According to news received by telephone tfrom Thermopohs, one ol, the Cody bank robbers has been capJ tured. This was the larger of the two men who robbed the Thormopoli3 saloon. The captured man appears to fill the description of the one who shotMiddaugh in the attempted bank robbery in Cody. The capture was made about three and a quarter miles above the mouth of Owl creeK m the Big Horn Valley, a few milea from Thermopolis. "The three rode cautiously up to the ruffian and succeeded in getting a drop on him before he was aware of their presence, and upon being questioned as to the identity and whereabouts of his partner he refused to utter a single word; in fact, he has remained Silent ever since he wag captured. Upon his person were found a re- volver and some money that ara known to be the same as that taken from Edwards's saloon yesterday Parties from Cody will go to Ther-j mopolis for the purpose of identify-" ing the captured man as the larger of the two who attempted to hold up the bank here. It was the larger of the two men who fired the shot tba killed Middaugh. t I U t.t t v v K f t r it h h I F -r It r 1
