AFTER THE YALU. (From the Portland Oregonian.) It was a summer evening, Old One Lung's work was done, And he before his hovel's door Was sitting in the sun; And by him sported on the sod His little grandchild,. Hop Sing Tod. She saw her brother, Suey Chop, Roll something hard and round, Which he beside Hie Yalu stream In playing there had found; I He came to ask what he had found That was so heavy, smooth and round. Old One Lung took it from the boy, Who stood expectant by; And then the old man shook his head, And with a guttural sigh, "A Russian breech-lock 'tis," said he ; "Was lost in their great victory." "It was the Russians," One Lung cried, "Who put the Japs to rout, But why they left their guns behind I could not well make out. But Kuropatkin said," quoth he, "That 'twas a Russian victory. "They say it was a shocking sight After the field 'was won; For many thousand Russians there Lay rotting in the sun; But things like that, you know, must be, After a Russian victory. "Great praise brave Kuropatkin won, - His fame was spread abroad. ' ' "Why, -'twas a very bad defeat!" Said little Hop Sing Tod. "Nay, nay, my little girl," quoth he, "It was a Russian victory. "And everybody praised the man Who left the Japs on top." "But what did Russia gain by it?" Quoth little Suey Chop. . "Why, that I cannot tell," quoth he, "But 'twas a Russian victory." "D. D." in Red and Black at Earlham Notes. Earlham is stirredl up over a new prank. The letters "D. D." in red and black (supposedly standing for "Day Dodgers,) were discovei'ed painted on a stone in front of the college. The ones who painted it are keeping dark and there is a great deal speculation as to the authors of and to the why and wherefore of the Prank. President Kelly has received an invitation to deliver the baccalaureate address at Penn College. He has not decided whether or not the invitation will meet with his acceptance. Prof. Russell delivered the commencement address at Amboy, Ind., last night. FIELD MEET At Dayton Next Friday Will be Quite An Event.

TO WARN MARINERS

' "; APE HATTER AS. on tbe coast of ..North Carolina, one of tbe most dangerous spi:ts in the world to mariners, will be shorn of some of its terrors if the plans of Captain Albert E. Eells are carried out. For years the problem of establishing a lighthouse on the Outer Diamond shoal has perplexed the government, and several extensive and costly, efforts have been THE LIGHTHOUSE unsuccessfully made. The latest attempt-ws in 1889, when, a contract was given to a Pittsburg firm. An enormous caisson was constructed, and preparations made to sink it In place during a period of calm weather, but a sudden storm swept the work away. Since then no further effort has beeu made to build a permanent light. ' Ever since the twenties of the last centuries, however, a lightship has been '.maintained six or seven miles from shore. Although held by mushroom anchors weighing r.000 pounds, the lightship has frequently been driven away from its moorings by the winter gales. On one occasion in 1900 the lightship was adrift three days. Two lightships relieve each other at the station, one being kept in readiness should the other go adrift. The United States having abandoned the idea of building a lighthouse. Captain Albert F. Eells of Boston has proposed a plan, which the government experts have approved, and he will construct, at his own expense a lighthouse and fog signal on Outer Diamond shoal. Captain Eells' plan is to build at Newport News, Va., a big steel diving bell, which will not only be hollow in the middle, but will have hollow sides. This big bell will be seventy feet in diameter at the bottom and taper up to twenty-nine feet at the top. The inner and outer sides of the bell will be made of steel plates, and the space between them will be water tight. Enough stone and cement will be dropped in the lower part of this space to cause the big bell to float upright, with its top sticking out of the water. It will then be towed to Outer Diamond shoal and anchored in thirty feet of water over the spot where the lighthouse is to be built. Then the hollow sides will be filled with rock and cement until the bell sinks to the bottom, driving its lower edges Into the sand. The water will be pumped out of the center, and the bell will then become a caisson, which will be kept free from water by compressed air. After the sand is removed down to the lower edge of the bell ten layers of masonry will be laid in the CAPTAIN AX.BERT F. EELX.S. bottom and this solid mass fastened by steel crossbeams to the sides of the bell. On top of this the hollow inside will be filled with masonry and concrete to a point about twenty feet above water. As it hardens the whole will become an immense artificial stone weighing about 20,000 tons. On this foundation the superstructure will be built. Above the foundation is to be erected a circular steel structure twenty-five feet in diameter and thirty-five feet high, divided into two 6tories. This will provide quarters for the lighthouse keepers and also for a small life saving crew. On top of this will be another tubular steel structure of sufficient diameter to contain a spiral stairway, which will be used to reach the light, not less than 200 feet above mean low water. Hitherto the government has been unable to maintain a life saving service on the Diamond shoals. These shifting sand bars afforded no place for a life saving station to be builL Life savers on the mainland are too far away to render any aid to vessels driven on the bars. Captain Eells agreement with the government provides that he shall construct and maintain the lighthouse at his own expense for twelve months. For four years thereafter it shall be maintained by the lighthouse board, and at the end of five years, If the chief engineer of the army shall certify that It is a permanent structure and suitable for the purpose. Captain Eells la to receive $500,000.
