JAPANESE CAPTURE TWO MORE FORTS

IMPORTANT POSITIONS NEAR PORT ARTHUR TAKEN BY MIKADO’S FORCES.

BOMBARDMENT OF - CITY IS RESUMED

Attack Is Directed Against Northeast Front—Gen. Stoessel Repels Two Assaults on Town—Japanese Cross Taitse River. -

Shanghai, Sept. 21.—The general attack on Port-Arthur which began Monday, and in which the Japanese fleet is cooperating, was resumed Tuesday morning. The Japanese captured two important forts on either side of Sueiszeying, north of Port Arthur. Attack Continues All Day.

Chefoo, Sept. 21.—Authoritative information has been received here of a general attack upon Port Arthur by the Japanese forces which began Monday before daybreak and continued until dark. ' All indications point to an effort to capture certain of the northeast-main forts. < This is the attack for which the Japanese have been preparing for the past 19 days, with slight hope of success. The Japanese attack on Port Arthugis directed against the northeast front. The main object is to capture the fortifications on Kikwan mountain, Rihlung mountain and the intermediate forts. The foregoing comes from a Russian of standing whose previous information has besen correct. He adds that the attack at the end of August, which was represented as two separate assaults, really constituted a ten days' battle, the fighting being the heaviest during the first three days and the last four days of that period. Although the Japanese retired August 31 along the greater part of their line, they remained in four sup‘plementary forts on the northeastfront, which they had captured from the Russians. These include two forts 50 yards from Rihlung mountain and two others at a somewhat greater distance. Since August 31 the Japanese have bombardEd_very slightly, while the Russians fhave been throwing approximately 1,000 shells daily, chiefly against the four Japanese positions mentioned. Small sorties, ‘as referred to by the Novi-Krali, of Port Arthur, in the effaorts to recapture the positions, have been of almost nightly occurrence and have been uniformly unsuccessful. : Respect Strength of Fort. ‘'The Japenese™ have been taught whol2some respect# for the resisting power of the fortress, according to every Japanese who has recently arrived here from Port Dalny. If they succeed in capturing Rihlung mountain or other forts they will realize that this will only be one step. although an important one, towards the capture of Port Arthur. The ‘Russians, who have been observing the new tactics of the Japanese, did not expect another attack before the first week in October. The Japanese are endeavoring to proceed slowly but surely. : During the fighting in August the attempt to capture Kikwan mountain cost the Japanesé an entire regiment. This statement has been absolutely confirmed and indicates the monumental proportions of the task which the Japanese have set themselves in attempting to capture the fortress, which is composed of many forts equally strong. ° Two Attacks Repelled. :

St. Petersburg, Sept. 21.—Lieut. Gen. Stoessel, commanding the Russian military forces at Port Arthur, reports by telegraph that on the night of September 16 thé garrison repelled two at-| tacks on the redoubt protecting the wa- ‘ terworks. The text of Gen. Stoessel’s dispatch is as follows: “Port Arthur, Sept. 16.—The enemy continues daily to bombard the forts and batteries inside the fortress, but still without showing any great activity. The wounded are recovering and eagerly resume their places in the ra,&{s. They are heroes. “The troops are in ex-. cellent spirits. At about three this morning (September 16) at least one Japanese battalion attacked the redoubt protecting the waterworks. The garrison of the redoubt repulsed the attack, but the enemy received reenforcements and renewed the attack after half an hour. ‘The garrison again repulsed them with rifles and machine guns, supported by artillery. The Japanese sustained great losses and did not again attempt to take the offensive.” : : : . . Japs Cross River. St. Petersburg, Sept. 21.—The following dispatch/has been received from Gen. Kuropatkin: ~ “The reconnaissance made September 17 established the fact that the Japanese position at Bentsiaputze is strongly held by a brigade with guns: There was no ‘enemy eastof Bentsiaputze, but Japanese reenforcements arrived September 18 in the vicinity of that village. Large Japanese forces from Liaoyang have already crossed to the right bank of the Taitse river. A Cossack patrol attacked a Japanese convoy west of Bentsiaputze and captured 30 horses with their loads.” il £ ok Filipinos Going Home, > St. Louis, Sept. 21.—1 t is announced at the Philippine reserxation on the world’s fair grounds that 50 Filipino scouts, accompanied by some of the officers of the scout battalion, will leave on Sunday for Manila. As their three years’ term expires Friday, September 30, they will be honorably discharged. The men who will return to the islands are those who have familles there. : : i S

LONDON JEWS IN A RIOT ST}%EE’I‘S OF ;f}AST END FILLED

Nearly 300 Police Called Out to Quell -the Disturbance—Several Arrests Made.

London, Sept. 21.—The day of atonement was marked in London by sé}ious rioting in the Jewish quarte lot the East end. Over 2,000 Jews engaged in a disturbance and nearly 300 poljce had to be called out before the disorder was quelled. The trouble arose over the action of non-conforming members of a social-democratic Jewish club at Spitalfields, situated in the heart of a district containing about 20,000 Jewish inhabitants. The socialists openly paraded, in disregard of the fasting injunction, and made a celebration with wines at the clubhouse.. The orthodox Jews were angered and surrounded the clubliguse and stoned it. The socialists threw bottles at the crowd and soon the two or three narrow streets in the vicinity became -choked by a fighting mob. Ambulances were called out and the doctors . had many minor cases to attend to. . Finally the police quelled the disturbance, ' cordoned off the streets in the disturbed area and made several arrests. Excited groups of orthodox Jews, however, continued to parade the streets and the.houses of several socialist Jews were stoned.

The magistrate in senf@ncing the various rioters brought up at the local police court said it was ‘‘deplorable that a class of .persons who for centuries have been distinguished by the fiercest persecution should, when in the one free country in the world, turn upon those who disagreed with them upon religious grounds and stone and persecute even their co-religionists.” Died at G'oshen. David Showalter died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Charles Noel, on South Seventh street, at 10 o’clock Tuesday night from paralysis, at the age of 80 years. He had been declining for some time and the end came peacefully.. The deceased was one of the oldest citizens of Elkhart county. He was an active member of the Lutheran church and his gifts for church work’ and charity were frequent and liberal. He lived a christian lifé and was loved and respected by all who knew him. e : - David Showalter came from an old Virginia family, having been born in Rockingham county, Virginia, March 24, 1824. He was married to Mary E! Hofi’m‘anfi, December 23, 1846, wi_th whom he lived until her death in 1885. ,In 1849 he emigrated to LagranMge county, Indiana, where he Hade his home until 1889, when he nroved to Goshen and since that time has lived with his daughter, Mrs. Charles Noel. : ; He was a well-to-do farmer, owning 320 acres of farm land in Lagrange county, in addition to 240 acres which he divided among his children a few years ago. The deceased left five children, two daughters, Mrs. A. U. Miller of Ligonier, and Mrs. Charles Noel of Goshen ;three sons, W. N.Showalter of Ligonier, James Showalter of Chicago and Fred S. Showalter of Fish Lake. The funeral was held on Thursday last at Fish Lake, thesfuneral being under the direction of Rev. J. Dressel of Middlebury.—Goshen Democrat. ' Obituary. {

The service given to our people over what is called the Long Dis-i tance or Bell telephone lines is something simply outrageous. It is almostimpossible to get service excepting with the immediate neighborhood and even then the delay and trouble is often exasperating. While Mr. Otis of Kendallville was the manager for this city, the service was pretty good but for some reason the Ligonier office has been put under the supervigsion of a Goshen man who is either too busy or tooindolent to give us any attention.

Monday last a call was registered for a party at Logansport and it was impossibie to get it through the Goshen office but the South Bend operator happened to hear the supplications of the Ligonier operator and gave him the line to Logansport. This, after an hour’s waiting, solved the problem. There is no excuse for the service that is given our people for when the lines were projected here and the franchise solicited all were assured that a good line wounld be put in and first class service maintained. It is no fault of the local manager, Mr. Williams, as he and his assistants do all in their power to p,fio‘rd accommodations and good service. ; A Time at Goshen. A special to the Indianapolis News fiom Goshen says: Goshen is suffering from an epidemic of hold-ups and burglaries.. There has been no night in two weeks without an attempt to enter some home. The local police officers seem powerless to grapple with the situation and people are becoming alarmed. While waiting at the Lake Seore station for a train, in a spot mueh frequented and within four blocks of the courthouse, B. B. Bortner, a civil engineer; was robbed. The thieves, not satisfied with taking his money, appropriated his shoes and hat. Bortner is one of the best-known politicians in northern Indiana, and is a candidate for surveyor of Noble county. The daring features of some of the work have made some of the officers fear that Allison, Slater and Spellman, the safeblowers and old members of the Lake Shore gang, who recently escaped from the penitentiary at Jackson, Mich., are at the tbottom of the trouble. It is known that they have been in this neighborhood within the last three weeks. '

INTERESTING LETTERS Word Comes from Vern Shobe from Far Off Cities, He Writes Entertainingly. CaPE CoroxNy, Aug 7, 1904. DEAR FATHER:— As this is Sunday afternoon and I am off duty for some time I thought I would drop a few lines now as I would not have so much to write when we reach our destination. ~ I don’t think you will be a bit surprised that our itinerary was changed again, because this is the third or fourth time it has happened since we started oat from San Juan. Instead of going to St. Vineent from Santa Cruz we went to Los Palmas, Gran Canaria, where we waited for the Brooklyn. As soon as she arrived the Admiral sent the rest of us to Freetown, Sierra Leone, a distance of 1307 miles. We left ‘Los Palmas on the 13th and arrived at Freetown on the 22nd, the Brooklyn arriving on the same day. It was 'a picturesque and pretty sight that met our éyes while entering the harbor as on both sides the shores were covered with trees, palms and plants, common to Africa, and the harbor itself was filled with native men, women and children, all of whom were naked or nearly so, and the boats themselves were curious as they were nearly dug-outs and some of the smaller ones were so light that one native in the stern caused the boat to rise a couple of, feet out of water.

Sierra Leone was acquired by the British in 1787 by colonization and contains about 15,000 square miles, and has a population of 275,000. From 1713 to 1787 it was a depot for slaves supplied by an English company to South American plantations. As many as 60,000 have been shipped from here in a single year. The trade zonsists mostly of palm oil,and kergels, ground and kola nuts, rubber, benni seed and hides.

Freetown is the capital and headquarters of the British forces in west Africa. The population is about 20,000 or 25,000 ineluding 200 white men and two white women, wives of British officers. The climate is very unhealthy and despite the best of care being taken of the 1,000 soldiers stationed here 2,500 admissions were made to the hospital during the last year. African fever is the principal disease. We left here on the 24th for Monrovia, Liberia, arriving there on the 26th. Monrovia -is the capital of Liberia and has a population of about 5,000. The climate is very hot. The principal tribe of Liberiais the Krunen, who are physically a fine, vigorous race, and the only industrious people in this part of the continent. They are very timid and superstitious, however, and as one traveller said, ‘“They wear more charms to keep off the evil eye of the devil than clothes to protect them from th¢ evil eye of man.” The neighboring tribes of Ashanti and Dahomey are governed by a chief who is absolute except that he is.limited to the number of 3,333 wives. The ‘‘Amazons’ or women warriers came principally from Dahomey and are always given the place of honor in battles. The wildest scenes of cannibalism are practiced among these tribes and as many a 3 500 captives have been killed and eaten in a single feast. We left this beautiful (?) and interesting place on the 27th and arrived at St. Paul de Loanda. on Aug 4. This is a fortified city and is the capitol of the Portugese country of Angola. The population consists of 3,000 whites and 20,000 blacks. Ithas for 300 years been the chief center of the Portugese power in Africa, and for two hundred years was the center of the slave trade between Africa and Brazil. The negroes in this region never wear clothés butare extremely fond of decking themselves in shells, feathers, necklaces, ete. The principal products are copper, iron, lead, tin, quicksilver, salt, saltpeter, sulphur, petroleum, coal, coffee, sugar, cotton, corn, wheat, rice, manioc, anise seed, and tobacco, palm oil, castor oil nuts, earth nuts, indigo, orchilla, gum copal and wax. The climate is unhealthy, the prevailing diseases being dysetery, fever, and ague. .

We left there yesterday and expect to arrive in Cape Town on the 19th when 1 will add some more to this and mail it.

CAPE Town, CaAPE COLONY, S. A, Aug. 19, 1904.

~ Well, we arrived hiere at Ip. m. all 0. K. and none the worse for our long voyage.

Upon arrival our mail was sent aboard and I received the papers of the 30th of June, which, although being somewhat old were none the less interes , especially that part referrhrg::gthe ball game with Mountpelier. I am glad'our boys are doing go well and hope that they keep it up for all time to come. Since leaving home I have seen several pretty good league games but I must say that none were half as gvod as the one I saw between Syracuse and Li-

gonier last autamn, from allaccoun 3 the others seem to be as good or better - than that so they must be- all right. ) This anchorage here is about as good and interesting a oneas-I have ever been in. Coming in the high, slim, round peak, called the Lion’s Head, which is about 2,500 feet high is the first interesting sight and as that is passed and we- head into Table Bay, Table Mountain rises before you to a height of 3,500 feet. It is flat on top (hence its namé) and looks like a. huge block of granite. Below this lies the city which is of about 70,000 population and which is the Capitol of Cape Colony. - '

The climate here is fine and even now, which is the middie’ of winter, the temperature is above 60 degrees and that is just right. It is not too cold but is just cool enough -to be pleasant. o Our stay here is considerably longer than at points along the coast at which we stopped. We are booked to leave here on the: 30th sor St. Helena, Rio Janeiro, and our long cruise will end at Montevideo, Uraguay. We will not be - there very long until we start hérthfi again, I don’t believe as we will have to be in the gulf for target practice by spring. After that I will try and remain in the states until my. time a\_’pires-.

Well, I must close now hopingt his finds you all in good luck, and health as I am, and sending best love and regards to all. ' Rt

I almost forgot to tell you of the time we had upon crossing the Equator. We had quite an interesting and curious experienc too as for an instant we were practically no place at all as we crossed the Equator and the Greenwich Merridian.at the same time and so we were in 0 degree of latitude and 0 degree of longitude, and we passed from the ncrthern into the southern hemisphere, from the western into the eastern hemisphere, and from the north Atlantic into the south "Atlantic Ocean at.the same time. : Toaef

We had the usual Neptune party on crossing lin which every member of the ship’s company who had not crossed the line before had to be. initiated. The initiation consisted of having to take a dose of stuff supposed to be medicide which -was about the rottenest mixture I ever tasted, then to have face and head lathered with a mixture. of oil, tar, soap, flour, molasses, water and a few other equally pleasing ingredients; then to’ be shaved with a big wooden razor, and last.but not least in any sense of the word, to duckedin a tank of water for several minutes. - ’

- After this was over we were all supposed to’be sailors and safe from ship wreck, etc., and to have Neptune’s Rex, king of the seals for protector for the rest of our naturallives and then to bea member of his crowd with a harem of cournitless mermaids. That is not so bad, is it. N.S.

' ~ *‘The facts are’’ he said, ‘‘that there are but two lodges that have surrendered their charters or even discussed doing so seriously. One had eight members, the other twentythree.~ The report that Mishawaka lodge would surrender its charter with 300 members is untrue. I was there last yeek and was invited to address them in two or.three weeks. The review of the supreme tent held at Port Huron, Mich., made an honeést and faithful effort to place the.rates on a sound basis. Some of the members did not understand this at first but do now. There hasalways been a prejudice against fraternal insurance on account of its cheapness. As a result of their efforts there have been less than two hundred suspensions out of a total membership of 21,000. The result is thatthe mem‘bers are now entirely satisfied and pleased with the standing.”
