CZAR'S MINISTERS CHEERFUL. With the closing of the week the semi-panje produced by the heavy -reverse sustained by General Kuropatkin'a army in the past ten days has in a great measure disappeared, and there is a "much more cheerful feeling pervading the War Office, and the result of the fighting is practically a draw. General Kuropatkin has again displayed consummate. skill in preventing Field Marshal Oyama from reaping the fruits' of victory. By withdrawing his 'shattererl left wing' under shelter of the right cen1 tre'he succeeded in' the gigantic task 'of taking 30,000 wounded off the field of battle, iand, more than according all he reorganized and reformed his broken legions and again confronts the Japanese across the Shakha River.

A resumption of the conflict on a large scale is believed to be imminent, and St. Petersburg hopes that the vanquished in last week's battle will conquer in future fighting. KUROPATKLVS GREAT FEAT, That Kuropatkin, after losing close to 40,000 men, was able to resume the offensive within a fortnight constitutes a -feat in military history.

Pennsylvania fairly-crushed the New in the first few minutes of' play and then by some of the most sensational playing seen on Franklin Field won the game by three touchdowns to It was Stevenson, the nimble footed quarter-back who twice planted the ball over the Columbia line for scores and another time carried the ball to the very door of the goal, through whieh the big Piekarski later plowed his way. Reynolds only succeeded in kicking one of the goals. Stevenson was thewhole show, and aided by-strong interference capered around for two runs of 22 and 20 yards. He dodged the Columbia men ho opposed him or else jumped oyer those who escaped the mighty rush of the. interference and speeded Penn on to victory Again it was Stevenson who grabbed up' the ball after Mctzenthin fumbled it on a fierce tackle "by Greene, and skipped over 30 yards of space for the only score of the second half.

All honor and credit belongs to Pennsylvania for the victory and the crowd and students sang their songs. The tables were turned upon the New Yorkers, who last year defeated Penn by much the same kind of sensational playing. The New Yorkers came here well re-enforced with substitute players and strongly backed up by a delegation of students who did their part to cheer up their crushed team. Columbia was not able to show full strength because of injuries. The doughty quarter-back Metzenthin was not in tbe game until well into the second half when he dashed into the field and relieved the overworked Donovan.

He rallied the Columbia forces, and under his leadership the team braced and fought back at Penn savagely and really outplayed her. But it was to no effect. Penn, by her spirit and aggressive- C'ONTIXCEH ON 14lu PAGE. 5th, COLUMN. attracting wide attention.
