AVOID CONFLICT AT SEBASTOPOL
Evidently Acting on Orders of Reds,
Mutineers Are Orderly.
St. Petersburg, Nov. 2S.— it is re
ported there had' been no conflict at
Sebastopol. So far as the officials
knew the crews of the Black sea fleet
were still loyal, but beyond that no In
formation was vouchsafed.
The sailors who mutinied number
about 4000 and belong to various
equippages from tho Twenty-eighth to
the Thirty-sixth. Including the sail
ors on board 1 lie ships, there were•
about 8000 in Sebastopol, when the i
mutiny occurred. The troops in the j
garrison consisted of the Brest and j
tiielostok regiments, with two bat
talions of artillery and one battalion
of fortress arti.iery. Ihe Bielostok
regiment, during tne outbreak several
weeks ago, fired upon the soldiers at
the admiralty.
No doubt is now entertained that the
mutiny was the result of the carefully
prepared won., of revolutionists, to
whom the support given the mutineers
.it Cronstadt by the workmen of St.
Petersburg offered a powerful weapon.
Profiting by the mistakes of the muti
neers at Cronstadt, however, those at
Sevastopol took particular care to
adopt measures to prevent their meet
ing from degenerating into a drunken
riot, and so far as known both the
mutineers and the workmen in the
port have comported themselves in a
perfectly orderly manner.
There is a strong impression here
that intelligent leaders are at the head
of the movement. It is evident also
that the sailors at Cronstadt have had
underground information of what was
happening at Kebastopol, because Sat
urday morning before the news was
•uiown in St. Petersburg, reports of
the mutiny were freely circulated at
Cronstadt.
Vice Admiral Birileff, minister of
marine, had issued a formal order
hreatenlng with arrest and the sever
est punishment under the law all those
who circulated reports of the mutiny.
In both cabinet and naval circles it
is regarded as absolutely vital . that
the mutiny be crushed in the severest
fashion at any cost if discipline in the
navy is to be restored and the army
held loyal.
CHANGE FOR TWO KINGDOMS.
Korea and Norway Both Changed
Control.
The past, week has been an eventful
)ii(.' fur two of th(> .smaller nations of
he world. Korea has passed under
Fapanese protection and control, and
Norway has resumed her ancient rank
imong the independent kingdoms.
The Korean emperor remains the
bead of the Hermit empire, but the
:eal authority will be exercised by a
Japanese administrator.
Had Russia won in that war Korea
would have become a Russian prov
ince. Japan having won, it becomes a
Japanese protectorate.
Under the resascence in Norway
that kingdom will have an opportunity
io pursue the paths of her own choos
ing and to work out her own individ
ual destiny, which she was not able
to do when united with Sweden. Her
king has been welcomed to his throne
by his people and has been felicitated
on his accession by the rulers of other
nations. That there is no unfriendly
feeling with Sweden is manifested by
the announcement that King Haakon's
first formal visit will he to he king
of Sweden. Let the revived kingdom
have peace and prosperity is the wish
of the world.

THE ISTHMIAN CANAL
ENGINEERS ESTIMATE THE COST
AT $230,000,000.
v.' :i
Boards of Consulting Engineers De
clare for Sea Level Canal— lt Means
Some Delay —. ime Required to Fin
ish Ditch at Panama Will Be More
Than Ten Years.
i
' Washington.—The board of consult
ing engineer! of the isthmian canal
commission has declared itself by a
. largo majority in lavor of a sea level
canal, The conclusion was reached
after a long and careful study of the
projects,
Since the beginning of September
me board had held meetings and in
special subcommittees had studied the
plans for a sea level canal with the
greatest care.
A trip to Panama was made to
enable the members to form a better
Idea of the physical difficulties which
had to be considered. The members
of the board are men of the greatest
reputation in their line of work. Ger
many, Franco and Holland had sent
their most eminent specialists at the
request of this government. At the
beginning it was evident that a major
ity of these members were in favor
of a sea level canal. Their point of
view was that even ii it cost more
than a lock canal, and would take
longer in the building, it would ulti
mately be of greater use, as it will
enable ships to make a much quicker
trip than if they were obliged to go
through three or four locks.
On the other hand was a minority
which wanted to see the canal built
in as short a time as possible and
with the least cost, declaring that a
few hours longer for the trip through
the isthmus made little or no differ
ence.
" No official statement will be given
out before the decision reaches Presi
dent Roosevelt, a.,out. January.
Will Cost $230,000,000.
The cost of the sea level canal at
Panama is estimated by the board
of consulting engineers at about $230,
--000,000. Although this amount seems
much larger than the amount neces
sary wiili the construction of a lock
canal, it is claimed by the advocates
of the sea level plan to be in reality
only comparatively slightly higher. It
was pointed out in the meetings of
the board that the lock canal would
necessitate between $30,000,000 and
$40,000,000 payment for the private
grounds and the lands belonging to
the republic of Panama which would
be inundated by the lock system. This
item, in view of the majority of the
board, is entirely done away with by
the adoption of the sea level canal.
European Breakfasts.
Mark Twain, in speaking of the ty
pical European breakfasts, said: "Do
you know what I'll do? I'll nail a
piece of cuttle-fish bone to the chim
ney, and every morning I'll hop up
on the mantel and take a pick at it
with a tin bill. It win be just as filling
and much cheaper than a European
breakfast."
It is evident that Mr. Clemens pre
fers the typical American breakfast
dish of Pillsbury's Vltos with good
cream and sugar.
Takahtra to Leave.

expecting to leave for Japan early in

to his friends.

BLOOD POISONsifsSE
The black flag is an emblem of horror and dread. When it is hoisted
by an army, the order has gone forth that "no quarter " will be given, ev
erything must be destroyed. Helpless women and children, as well as oppos
ing soldiers, meet the same fate, and a trail of desolation, suffering and
death is left behind. Contagious Blood Poison is the black flag of the great
army of disease. This vile disorder is known as the blackest and most hide
ous of all human affliction!, overthrowing its victims and crushing out the
life. It is no respecter of persons ; no matter how pure the blood may be
or how innocently the disease is contracted, when this awful virus enters the
circulation the hideous, hateful and humiliating symptoms begin to appear,
and the sufferer feels that his very presence is polluting and contaminating.
Usually the first sign of the disease is a little sore or ulcer, but as the blood
becomes more deeply poisoned the severer symptoms are manifested, the
mouth and throat ulcerate, the glands in the groins swell, a red rash breaks
out on the body, the hair and eyebrows come out, and often the body is cov
ered with copper-colored spots, pustular eruptions and sores. In its worst
stages the disease affects the nerves, attacks the bones and sometimes causes
tumors to form on the brain, produc
ing insanity and death. Not only Several year. a«ro I had blood poison
*> , * " ,t; . ~ y and my flesh was ia an »wful condition.
those who contract the poison suffer, eat sores would break out and noth
but unless the virus is driven from fw£
the blood the awful taint is handed "a fright." My mouth was so tore I
down to offspring and they are its had to live on milk and water. I took

S. S. S., the great vegetable medicine, is the conqueror of this vile disease. It
goes down to the very root of the trouble and cures by cleansing the blood of
