He had always worked literature became convinced he was cut out for a detective. He saw an advertisement of a de ective asscciation asking for oper: tives and sent for the association's book. He received several pamphlets, among them being a book of halftone portraits of notorious criminals wanted by the police, to each of whom was at- tached a large reward. McCarthy studied these pictures, im- pressing the features of each indelibly on his mind, then went forth to earn the rewards.

Jack | Stillwell, I have you at last.” “Unhand me,” replied the man, his black brows coming together in an angry frown. “I am not Jack Still- I am just plain John Burkhardt, citizen of good renown, lodging with the Salvation Army."” But McCarthy, th sleuth, was not so easily deceived. Had he not seen the picture of Stillwell in the book? = And Burkhardt somewhat resembled Still- well. But escaped convict. Burkhardt called on the Salva- tion Army captain to prove his identity and the sleuth was arrested. B EXCURSIONS TO SANTA CRUZ. Every Sunday During October. $2 | Round .

General Kuropatkin's order to ad- vance had aroused the greatest enthu- siasm everywhere. ““The advance was general along the line on October 8. The day was wet i and foggy, and while this did not con- | tribute to high spirits it served to im- pede the Japanese artillery fire, which, as we approached their eastern posi- tion, was extremely indifferent. On the west the Japanese slowly retreated be-| fore us, we in the advanced companies keeping in close touch. This day Gen- eral Mistchenko had a brilliant engage- ment with the Japanese near Bentsia- putze. The Cossacks' batteries went in at a gallop, firing and advancing to fresh positions and repeating the oper- ation until the Japanese abandoned the hill positions and fled in confusion. Tdking advantage of the confusion Japanese even time to remove their ammunition boxes. It is reported that the Japanese lost heavily in this en- ccunter. Bentsiaputze was a magnifi- cent position, held by a division of Japanese and strongly entrenched. 'Meantime hard fighting was pro- ceeding on the extreme east, where we drove back the Japanese step by step. And over it The troops we met here were evidentiy finely silted gold. a fresh importation and not those op- gilt. posed to ys at Liaoyansg. “The same day the Voronski regi- ment was ordered to occupy the hills in front of Yental. Tnis was accom- plished brilliantly. Having secured a commanding position .they entrenched under heavy fire, driving back attack after attack. “The day closed with a heavy rain. The Japanese retired azong’ the. whole line, in some cases six to twelve miles. 7 esterday, October 10, we reached a position in the hills which lay across ‘then was bright. Below us on every side stretched the same clear flelds, which bordered hills varying in size and with narrow passes. “The Japanese made desperate efforts to recover the hill held by the Voren- ski regiment. They threw a whole brigade of infantry against it, support- ed by a heavy fire from their batter- ies. The Voronski men gallantly held the position. Our batteries first replied from the hilltops, but later went be- low. The Japanese, not perceiving the change of position, continued to fire on the old position all day. At night we entrenched benind the hill The advance continued slowly and steadily with repeated skirmishes. No news has been received of the fight- ing on the left flank.” ——— EXPECTS ROUT OF RU’SS]ANS. LONDON, Oct. 14.—The London- pa- to rely mainly upon official reports for news from the Far East, but the dispatches thus far received regard a complete Japanese victory as- sured. Says the Daily Telegraph: “General Kuropatkin has shot his bolt. It seemed to be speeding well to- | ward the mark, yet he has missed it badly, He has suffered not merely a re- pulse, but a disastrous defeat, while Japan's incomparable soldiers, under incomparable generals, have added another glorious page to the chronicle of war and proved that Oyama is still Kuropatkin’s master in every branch of the art of war." The Daily Graphic describes General Kurcpatkin’s move as a ‘“gambler’s throw,” and considers that the frank blun!l‘u- of his report to the Emperor seems to speak the language of a man who has done his best with the bung- ling advice of some superior agency. The Standard finds General Kuropat- kin's dispatch full of tragic ‘meaning, which, in case of the fall of the fortress, cannot be far distant. Spencer Wilkinson, in the Morning Post, discussing strategic possibilities, thinks the issue will turn upon which side shall first become exhausted by the protracted operations.
