In another article discussing tho war Tlio Times calculates that tho Japanese surely reach Wi-Ju from Ping Yang ot the end of this week, and that thoy will meet tho Chinese troops that wore landed on fho Korean bank, of tho river by Admiral Ting.

It is not clear, Tho Times adds, whether tho Chinese transports bad time to diooin- Imrk their stores. At any rate the condition of tho Chinese column must bo precarious, anil then- seems to he nothing to prevent a from revisiting Ihe mouth of tlie Yalu and destroying trio transports-tlsnt riinaiu there. Further, it would bo easy for tho Japanese to move troops by sea from Ping Yang to tho Yalu and shift their uaso of operations farther north, thus supplying ro-enforcemoiits to tho column marching northward from Ping Yung. This is almost certain to bo dune if an advance into' Manchuria is lilt ended. With regard to an attack upon Mukden The Times Bays tho Japanese cannot overlook tho fact that apart from its presumed sanctity it is a position of little military value.

It is not the shortest or the best route to Peking. If the naval situation permits the roe use of tho Yalu river as a base, it equally allow a for nearer point of disembarkation. Whether or not such defenses possesses would prove formidable to the Japanese artillery, tho fighting tho Chinese would probably show to tho best advantage in do- fetiso of a walled city.

member of the Chinese legation In an interview said that China cannot dare to abandon Korea oven if the war should last years. Besides, lie added, the Koreans are still hostile to the Japanese, as is proved by thoir refusal to concede the Japanese demand that thoy cut off their long hair as a sign of submission. Tho Japanese, ho further sain, have done everything to wound the feeling of the Chinese. Directly after tho Chinese minister had loft Tokyo at tho outbreak of the active Japanese destroyed the Chinese legation and Buddhist temple, besides setting fire to and destroying Chinese clubhouses and residences and murdering Uelpless Chinese In tha street. Count Aokl Japanese minister to Germany, was also Interviewed.

Ho scouted the idea of any cessation of hostilities. He flatly denied that Chinese had been murdered or their property destroyed In Tokyo. On the other hand, he said, the Chinese bad insulted tho Japanese minister at Tien tsln and had massacred 50 harmless Japanese laborers who wore working Jn the camphor fields of Korea. It was also untrue, he declared, that tin- Japanese had demanded that the Koreans cut their hair. The king and the people of Korea have bean friendly with the Japanese since the battle near Asan.

A Child's Beady Reply.

At the harvest home service in St. John's church, last evening, Rev. Johnson, the pastor, gave a very practical talk to the children on tha subject of immortality and illustrated some of his thoughts. In doing so he used wheat, Hour and bread and asked the children questions in connection with them. He showed how wheat is converted into flour aiid then into broad.

One of his questions was, "Wl.at becomes of the wheat when it is crushed One of the young scholars, his face all aglow with eager anxiety, cried out: "I know; chewing gum!" This was aot quite the answer the questioner expected to receive, but it gave Rev. Johnson an opportunity of saying that be wished all chewing gum was made of ingredients as harmless as wheat. The reply provoked great laughter among the audience. Sunday School Harvest Home. The Sunday school of St.

John's Rf forrned church, this city, last evening held a and interesting harvest home service. The auditorium was decorated with fruits and vegetables of all kinds in large variety and many cut flowers and plants.

The Murderer Still Keeping tie Police Authorities at Harriibarg Queuing. The Harrisbnrg "Call" oi this more- ing says: Murderer Garrett, of Lebanon, is still at large and the chances are that he ig far enough away this vicinity. Humors of his being seen at various places throughout the county were numerous yesterday, and had Garrett 40 different places at the same time. The police spent Saturday and yesterday and scoured every place in the neighborhood where he was likely to be. The Dag an story is disbelieved by many.

Late last night a report was brought to this city that he was at Highspire and shot a man who had attempted to arrest him. Chief Anderson does not think he is in the neighborhood. If the man who Dugan talked to on Friday was uarrett, the man seen on the other side of the river by a "Call" representative was the same person. On Friday night this fellow slept in a watch box near Marysville. Two tramps who were also at the place in question told a switchman that "there was a fellow sleeping inihe be laid down to sleep he took from his pockets two revolvers and a knife." When one of the tramps remarked, "yon are pretty well loaded," the fellow said he was -wanted and did not want to be caught.

The watchman did not know anything abont the Garrett murder, and told the daylight man who relieved him that "a fellow slept in the box last night who was a criminal of some kind," and told the story of the tramps. When last seen the man in question was walking in the direction of Duuoannon. Whoever he was, the fellow was a fugitive from justice. Mis actions along the river road when he hid big face iu his handkerchief were very suspicious. Descriptions of Garrett are also many, and a close investigation would be necessary to identify him.

The following was sent out from Lebanon: Height, five feet, seven inches; age, 80 years; dark haircut short, black eyes; weight, 140 pounds; thick set form, slightly bowlegged, long head, slight bump on forehead; wore a dark grey suit of one piece of goods, crease in pants; new straw or black derby bat. The description given by Michael Cas. sidy, warden of the Eastern penitentiary, is more minute and is as follows: American; 27 years old; five feet, four and a half inches tall; 145 pounds weight; size of foot, 9i inches; hazle eyes; brown hair; slightly bowlegged; swagging gait; dansense, ooat of arms, ballet girl, and an eagle on his right arm; Union on left arm; scroll on left band between thumb and index finger; wore when last seen a grey suit, ooat, pants and vest, barred; derby hat, striped neglige shirt.

Nine Grey Fqnimli and Doe Battler the Beralt of a Day's Work. Adam M. Lutz and his nephew, Paul "Weaver, employees of the Miller Organ company, took a day off on Saturday and went gunning in the northern part of the county. Mr. Lutz has been in the employ of the organ company twenty years and more and iu his younger days was one of the crack shots of this county, there being few then whocould draw a bead go quickly and accurately as he.

The re- salt of Saturday's work shows that he has not forgotten how to shoot, although be states that at present he is out of prac- tise. Hie nephew, also, evidently knows bow to handle a gun, ns he succeeded in bagging five grey squirrels; while his uncle shot four and a large rattler to make np the number. "And it wasn't a food day for squirrels," said Mr. Lutz. The reader will wonder how many they would have shot if it had been a "good squirrel day."
