Outside of Military

St. Teterifcujr. Mar C-Tha military
authorities bere profess to be little af
fected by Its cutllr.r oft of Tort Ar

will attempt to itona the placa, well

In accordance with the plana of Oeneral
Kurepatkla. wba provided for such a
contingency. Various estimates are
ma2e of the strength of the garrison ft
- Port Arthur. It Is believed that a large
pirt cf It had been. withdrawn, but It la
aid that General Stoesael still com
manda more than 20.C00 troops, while
XS.000 seamen from the fleet are avail
able for ssslstlng m the defense. It Is
not expected that anything will be
. fc-ard from the beleaguered fortress
henceforth until General Kuropatkln
has accomplished his designs. Mean
while patience should be exercised.
Tfcis optimism Is rot shared outside
of military quarters. It is recognized
that the nearly landed Japanese army
Is a serious menace to General Kuro
patkln' right f ank, and makes It diffi
cult for him to operate against General
Kuro&Ts advance on Fens "Wans;
Chen. No reliable news of fighting
. there has yet been received. It Is
rtated that large reinforcements have
reached the Russian position. It Is al
so maintained that the Japanese have

attack.
classes are stunned by the scries of dis
asters to the Russian army. The uni
sersal depression is intensified by the
fear that tie blunders of he campaign
will prove Irretrievable.
A little life may be sacrificed to a
sudden attack of croup. If you don't
have Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oft on
hand for the emergency.

Meredith resumed his run on the road
today.
special term of. the court, and Intima
ting that if necessary to do so clothe
the executive with sufficient power for
the enforcement of the law, he will call
a special session of the legislature. The
pronouncement was directly called
forth by the action of Judge W. S. An
derson, of the first Judicial circuit, who
rsfused to call a special term of his
court to punish the men who lynched
the neiro on Little River, in Baldwin
county, several weeks ago. The recent
lynching In Augusta county for assault
had also a beating upon the announce
ment made today by the governor.

Feng Wang Cheng to Join hanfis with
hint to retard the Japanese advance
northward, but If the Japanese prove
to be In overwhelming numbers the
Rtrssians will not attempt to hold Feng
Wang Cheng, but will continue to re
trt northward.

small occupying force will be left there
for the moment, but wto divisions of
the third Japanese army are preparing
to land anJ replace the troops who are
withdrawn to reinforce General KurokL

packed, fire started in the other hall of
the theatre where scenery, etc., is
stored. Policeman Teeven first saw the
smoke. . He summoned other omcers
and notified Manager Brunelle. The
latter went to one of the boxes and
stepping to the front addressed tne
1,700 people present. "Ladles and Gen
tlemen," said the manager, speaking In
a voice that penetrated every corner
of the theatre but had no note of alarm
In It, "There is a fire In the building
next door. There is not the slightest
cause for alarm, so every man, woman
and child must keep his seat. You un
derstand, you will all get out safely
and quickly."
At first no one in the theatre seemed
to realize what was said. Nearly every
body stared stupidly at the little man
In the box. The actors paused and
moved to the footlights. Then a wo
man In the balcony screamed. A small
boy In the gallery yelled "fire," and
tense nerves began to give way. In the
rear of the orchestra floor a rush for
the door began. In the front of the
house no one moved. At that Instant
the big doors swung open and Police
Captain McNally at the head of fifteen
policemen appeared. They went into
each aisle and had the whole house
under command. The captain waved
his stock and called: "Keep your seats.
If anybody In this house starts a stam
pede I'll knock his head off. The first
man or woman that tries a rush for the
door will be smashed with a club."
There was no rush. They all moved
out quickly but orderly. In six min
utes after the policeman had seen the
spiral of smoke the theatre was empty
from gallery to orchestra, and the big
crowd herded into the streets without a
single person being burned, bruised or
scratched. Discipline, ready wit and
downright brutal action had prevented
a panic wnich might easily have re
sulted in a disaster more horrible even
than the Iroquois fire in Chicago.
Meantime the firemen arrived, the other
half of the theatre building was burned
out and the theatre itself damaged by
smoke and water, but the loss was but
$2,500.

DIED IN SANITARIUM
Result of a Shooting Affair on
a Farm
Goldsboro, N. Ct, May 6. Special.
Wednesday afternoon of last week C.
W. Smith, a farmer living in the south
eastern section of this county, had some
trouble with two of his tenants over a
guano distributor. The tenants were
C. H. Williams and his son, Luther.
The fracas reached rather serious pro
portions and both the old man Wil
liams and his son were shot. The son
was only slightly wounded, but the old
man was wounded seriously in the leg.
He was taken to a sanitarium in Wil
son to have an operation performed and
died there yesterday. When the fight
took place the case came up before Jus
tice D. J. Broadhurst In this city. He
postponed the preliminary hearing un
til the old man Williams would be able
to attend the trial. Smith, who did the
shooting, claims that he was acting In
self defense and that the old man and
his son were both advancing on him
An investigation will be made at the
trial and not until then will It be pos
sible to forecast the result.
