CRAMPS SAY THE JAPS USED SUBMARINE BOAT. Declare Torpedo Craft Could aot Have Accomplished the Des- truction That was Wrought-- | Capt. Buckman Saw one at Yokosuka. Philadelphia., Feb. 12 —It is be- lieved by shipbuilders here that the Japanese did not destroy the Russian ships with torpedo boatsor destroy- ers, but used a submarine boat, “Lhave not taken much stock ® the story of a combined torpedo boat attack causing destruction to the Russian fleet,” said Charles H- Cramp, who built several of the Rus- fain boats “If the Japanese had a submarine boat, it could easily get in side the hay unseen and work desteuction, while the victims looked for the conse fever knew the Japanene had such weraft, but the injuries to the ships surely indicate they might have had, and used it,” To day it was stated on the au- thority of Capt. ROD. Buckman, marine superintendent of the Cramp vard, that the Japanese have been secretly experimenting with sub- mersibles Capt. Buckman declares that as long as two years ago he saw a Jap: anese-built submarine in a slip of the navy yard at Yokosuka, near Yoko- hama “Twas going ashore,” he anid, and touched at the firat convenient pier, It happened to be one of the piers of the Japanese navy yard When Flanded, | noticed in a alip nearby what J knew at once to be a submarine boat, although it was the first T had ween of the type.

The British Government in Re- ceipt of Astonishing Infor- j j mation. London, Feb. 12 British government has information j which leads it to believe that Japan | probably willbe in Port Arthur a} | week from now. In the best inform ed Japanese circles here it is private ly thought that the war will be over by July. Those British officials who are coguizant of the extraordinary thoroughness with which Japan pre pared for the war are inclined to share the Japanese view regarding the duration of the straggle Baron Hayashi, summing up events in the Far East so far as they have gone, said to the Associated Press to day: “Whatever the may be eventual result of the war, Raasia, in allowing us to oceupy and fortify Massampo, has created for itself another Darda nelles, With the fortification of Mas sampo the integrity of Japan is assured forever, No fleet can now pass there azainst Japan's wishes. Even it we were beaten we would not vive up Marampo.” The Associated PrestMderstands that the Japauese troops are ad vancing rapidly towards the Yalu river, There, it ts expectad, they will meet and engage the Russian forces The Japanese declare that the number of the Russian troops are greatly exaggerated The plan of the Japanese appear to be to take the road which leads almost straight to Mukden. They profess to have no doubt that they will be able todrive back the Russian forces toward Harbin. Baron Hayushi points out that the Mukden road, though nominally under Kussian military control, will be subject to constant raids from bands, which will swoop down from the hills, Proceeding diagonally, the Japanese intend to cut the line of communication between Port Arthur and the main land of Manchuria, not only preventing. reinforcements from reaching the Port: Arthur garrison, but inflicting damage upon the Man churian railroad. The British view thatthe Japanese will in the meantime be able to occu- py Port Arthur is chiefly based upon the latest information that the Rus sian guns cannot be brought to bear upon any force landing at Pigeon Bay, which is upon the western side of Port Arthur, and it is believed that the Japanese admiral will fol low tactics almost exactly similar to those intended to be pursued at San- tiago, the troops storming the bat- terles in the renr while the Japanese fleet lies waiting for the ships of Vice- roy Alexieff, who, inthe event of a land attack being successful, must either make # dash for liberty with his crippled fleet, orjfight where they are against practically hopeless odds. % p. m )—The JAPAN WILL WIN, HE SAYS, A United States Army Officer From the Orient Talks in Leavenworth Fort Leavenworth, Kas., Feb. 14 —*Russia will be driven out of Man- chura at an early date,’ was the remark of au army officer at Fort Leavenworth, who returned from the Orient recently. “Japan will be in possession of Manchuria and Korea before the people of other nations are aware of it. Both countries were full of Japanese spies before the war opened, and Japan bas the movement of its armies to strike with advantage. I can easily believe the report that a bridge in Manchur- ia was destroyed by dynamite, and there will soon be reports of others. “The Russian sea power in the Orient is broken, and the Japanese will win on land also. With no sea power and the railroads destroyed Russia will not be able to maintain armies in Maachuria or Korea and Japan will be victorious, “It is worth millions to this cotn- try to have Japan win. It will open agreat mark:t in Asiatic countries for American flour and products, and we shall get hemp and other material from them. In time the American flour will largely take the place of rice as food productin Japan | and Korea, ifthe Japaneso win. | ter for American flour, meat and; HENS AND THEIR EGGS. | She Stopped the Marriage. A Dealer, Wise in Their Ways, Tells of Their Freaks and idiosyncrasies. From the New York “as. “There is a lot about hens and their eggs that people don’t suspect,” eaid a dealer in exgs and poultry. “For instance, here is an egg that would be a rooster if it were hatched. Aad here is one that would develop * hen. “How do L know? I learned it by long experience with eggs and their habits. The small end ofa hen's egg will be smooth us marble or wrinkled like a nutmeg. Some people won't buy eggs that are wrinkled, because wrinkles, they say, are a sure sign of age. That is true, but not when ap- plied to eggs. “A hen’s egg with a wrinkled small end simply indicates that it holde a rooster, A hen is always enclosed within the egg with a smooth end But both eggs taste alik. Each has ite proper share of phosphate, olein, albumen, sulphur, casein aud mar- garine. “There is water, toe, a plenty ina fresh laid egg, but no more air than there isina hammer, As long as you can keep air out of your egg it will remain sweet and fresh; but no- body has succeeded in keeping it out more than six days without subject- ing it to artificial treatment. Oth- erwise oxygenis bound to find it way through theegg shell’s pores, and the only way to save that egy is toeatit “Tt sounds fuuny, but the instant you give your egy fresh air you ruin its health. “Aso hens themselves, there is no accounting for the freaks they often show themselves capable of in laying and hatching their eggs. Now, what sort of consistency is there in a hen almost big enough to eat her corn off the top of a barrel laying an egg oo bigger than asugar plum?) And why should a hen you can a.most cover with a quart bowl get it into uer head that unless she lays an egg that will weigh a quarter of a pound oreo she is not doing her duty to herself and family. “And who may account for the purpose that seems to actuate hens in now and then laying three or four ogus ut one time, one inside of the other, like a nest of Japanese jars? “Yet such frenks are ogfy a few that are common in the poultry yard, Out ofasetting of eggs one of my bens hatched once, one egg produced a live chick with four fully developed legs and foureyes, while in another egg from which no chick pecked its way I found a dead one with neither legs nor eyes. That ex tra pair of legs and eyes the live chick came out with, plainly enough belonged to the dead one. “Now, by what sleight-of-haten did the hen fit out the one witha double allowance of legs and eyes at the expense of the other’s physical make-up and its life? But I suppore | s she knew what she was doing. She laid the eggs as well as latched them, “Yes, indeed. There are few things in nature, 1 want vo tell you, as queer as hens’ eggs and their possibil- ities and the idiosyncrasies of things that come out of them.’ MOTHER’S FRIEND makes childbirth eas: the system for parturition ats tea noes in; labor, The painful ordeal is robbed of its terrors, and the danger lessened to both mother and child; the time of confinement is shortened, the mother rested, and child fully developed, strong and healthy, lorning sickness, or nausea 4 from pregnancy, is prevented by its use.
