IN THE CHINA SEA.
The world knows that a Russian
fleet is in the China sea, and also a
Japanese fleet, for Formosa is at the
head of that sea. The outside world
fcnows that the two fleets are ene
rgies, each proposing to destroy the
other. Thij is the extent of the
world's knowledge in relation to the
hostile fleets. It does not know where
in the big sea they are, or how
strong either is.

of the best known retail druggists of
the city were today bound over to
the next term of the county c urt for
an alleged violation of the prohibi
tion laws of the city. This trouble
had its orgin in the presence here of
a quack doctor, who has been writ

ously b3fore the druggists had an,op
portunity to ascertain whether or not
he was a licensed physician. Dr.
Keller, the tramp optician, had
flooded the city drug stores with
whissey prescriptions. Kellar was
bocded in the sum of five hundred
dollars as a witness at the next term
of court. He failed to give the re
quired bond and was sent to the

This act is believed ta mark the pass

was a populist mogul. Ls it possible
that "straight" p ipulism is on the

It was fifty-five years ago when Do-

ready disciples. Mr. Mitchell wrote
other books, among them "Dream

The charm of "Dream Life" lies in
four descriptions of the seasons
Spring, Summer, Autumn and Win

winter is a word painting more vivid
than if done in oil. Ike Marvel has
himself reached "the winter of life
and mayhap on cold blustering even

he depicted so faithfully more than a

a wonderful record, both as regards

ticing what they preached.
