—... i' Suicide of Nogi With theWhole A Spartan, Trained For War, He Was Unsparing of Himself and His Men.

Count Maresuke Nogi was born in 1849 a Choshu samurai and was grown to manhood before the great Japanese awakening. His birth des tined him to the profession of arms, and like a Spartan lad the whole of his training was directed to train him in hardihood and valor. When he was only fourteen he was studying the art of war at the capital of the lord of the Choshu, and to tit himself for the service of his superiors he set himself to subdue every natural desire. He schooled himself to disregard pain, to think little of personal pleasure, even to seem indifferent to his own family, and above all to scorn the fear of death. With this end in view, he fasted for long periods, traveled barefoot on frosty mornings and took long jour neys in the Gercest summer heat. It is even said that in order to harden him self to the sight of blood he attended executions and dabbled his hands in the blood of the victims. So it came about that when the Satsuma rebellion began he was one of the sternest of the fighters. Fie was in command of the Fourteenth regiment and before the revolution came to an end had been twice wounded severely. During the period in which Japan was preparing herself for the great struggles which have raised her to a front place among the nations General Nogi was studying the art of war and imbuing himself with all that modern science could add to the wonderful training in hardihood which was his by racial tradition. During the Chino Japanese war he was in command of the First brigade and took part in an attack on Port Arthur, which was aft erward to be the scene of his great military exploit. The place was then nothing like as well fortified as it was by the Russians, and its defense was feeble in comparison with the resist ance of General Stoessel. but it is a fair supposition that when Japan crossed swords with its northern neigh bor It was the experience and the knowledge that he gained in the earlier war whirli partly caused General No gi's selection to assail the Russian stronghold with the third Japanese army. Siege of Port Arthur. The history of the great siege of Port Arthur is one of the most notable In the history of war. Nogi landed at Petsiwo on May 4. 1004, and occupied Dalny four days later. The communi cations of Port Arthur with the north were thus cut. and from that time ou the grip of Nogi on the fortress began to tighten. The actual investment was not complete before July 30, but for two months the Japanese commander had been skillfully driving the Russians back and resisted successfully every attempt of Stoessel to break through his lines.

In all that he did, in what he required of himself no less than of those who served under him, the dead soldier represented a sterner age and a more self forgetting principle than are com mon under occidental civilization. He was samurai born, and as a samurai he died, carrying out to the last ex treme that devotion to the memory of his master which is summed up in that curious doctrine of Bushido.

Twice before the final assault on the 203 Meter hill, which determined the fate of the garrison, there were three days of genera] assaults. To the Russians, hidden behind their breastworks and covered by their redoubts, they were terrible enough, but to the Japanese army they were almost Incredible trials of courage. An eyewitness on the Russian side thus describes the third attack of Aug. 21, 1904. after the Japanese assault had been beaten off at 11 p. m. and 2 a. m.: "At 3 a. m. a third attack commenc ed, and it seemed as if the passion less, cold hearted Nogi had sentenced the last of his troops to death. The signal was given, and a fresh wave of living flesh and blood rolled forward. This time it was the attack—the spring —of a maddened, wounded, blood drunk herd of tigers, not men. Our truly awful Are was of no avail. The mass roared forward with the strength of a tidal wave."

Only once was he checked, four days before the end of the great conflict when Kuropatkin himself sent forward first forty bat talions and then led himself sixty-five In an effort to break through the en emy's lines. The valor of the Russians caused real anxiety In the Japanese headquar ters, but the stern determination of Nogi was checked, not defeated. He reached Kuropatkln's rear, and the Russian army became a mob. To no general returning from the war was a greater welcome given than to the stern old samurai. He had bee created a baron in 1895 and now was elevated to the rank of count His work over, he retired to quiet life, tak- ing with him the Arab charger which THE LATE GENERAL COUNT MARESUKE N00L the tire swept heights no fewer than 22,000 of their comrades. It was the apparent callousness of Nogi's strate gy which staggered the world, and yet in it could be discerned a deliberate design. Under the guns of Port Arthur lay the Russian fleet, and half around the world was coming the fleet of Ro jestvensky to unite with them. In the north of Korea the Russians were growing daily stronger in spite of many defeats, and day by day the ex chequer of Japan was feeling the ef fects of the war. It was absolutely necessary to capture Port_ Arthur at all costs as quickly as possible, and Nogi coolly, but not cruelly, determin ed to spend his men lavishly In com pleting the task which it was their duty to perform. Death of His Two Sons. What he asked his men to face he was willing to accept for himself. When the news came of the death of his son at the battle of Nanshan he turned to his wife and said: "Do not have any funeral ceremonies yet. My sons and I offered our lives to the emperor when this war began. One service may in a little time do for the three of us." With Port Arthur captured, Nogi and the remains of his army were set free to join the main body of the Japanese, who under Field Marshal Oyama were steadily pressing the Russians out of Korea. He arrived on the northern scene of operations in time to take part in the great battle of Mukden and in this case was intrusted with a vast turning movement, which, if it did not require the same relentless determina tion as the storming of the Port Arthur heights, demanded military skill of the highest order. Nogi's corps was on the left of Oyama's position, and he re ceived orders to march due north, be tween the Sha river and the Hun to turn Kuropatkin's right. He showed In this march all the dash and energy which had been proved at Port Ar thur/ and carried the feeble Russian re sistance completely before him. Nogi showed signs of crumpling up the en tire Russian right and establishing himself on Kuropatkin's line of re treat To prevent the re-enforcement of the Russian right it fell to Kuroki and Nodzu on the Japanese center and right to sacrifice their corps in fierce attacks on the Russian position, and to them, perhaps, fell the fiercest fight ing, but nothing could excel the driv ing force of Nogi's advance, and the success of this movement has been de clared by competent military critics to have been directly responsible for the downfall of the Russian army. He forced Kuropatkin's men back on themselves till they were crowded into a small position, raked from three sides by artillery fire, and he pressed on till ten days from the time that he had begun his great turning movement he lllaatMP Va»ll»V.»* TpracTicecl It In The early tlays to pre vent themselves from falling into the hands of the enemy. As early as the fourteenth century the custom of com mitting harakiri had become a much valued privilege. Harakiri was of two kinds—obligatory and voluntary. In the first kind, which was the more an cient, a noble who had offended or had been disloyal to his ruler would re ceive a jeweled dagger from the mika do and a notification that he had a certain number of days in which to kill himself with it. The offender made elaborate preparations for his suicide and disemboweled himself on a raised dais while his friends sat around in a semicircle and watched his death. The operation consists in plunging a dagger into the stomach on the left side and drawing it to the right and upward. The victim's dagger in an cient times was taken to the mikado as evidence that the heroic act had been committed. Voluntary harakiri, which has long survived in Japan, is committed by persons as proof of loyalty to a dead superior, and sometimes as a public protest against what the suicide be lieved to be a false national policy. In 1891 Lieutenant Takeyoshi killed himself by harakiri near the grave of his ancestors because he felt that his national government was not sufficient ly vigorous in taking precautions against possible Russian encroach ments in the northern part of Japan. It has been no uncommon thing for Japanese women to kill themselves for similar reasons, but instead of cutting their stomachs they slash their throats. It is asserted that in Japan each year at least 1,500 haraklris are com mitted, nearly one-half being volun tary. Friends of the victims take much grim pleasure In relating stories of the brave manner in which the deed la done. A BILLION DOLLAR CROP. Northwest Harvest Will Net »160,000, 000 Over Last Year.

Harakiri, or self disembowelment, is the national form of honorable suicide. It was originally the method of self destruction permitted to royal offenders in_feudaL times.^ Harakiri" is said to have been the growth of medieval militarism. ^Nobles Dr. Kirschner was born in 1842 and a Lo Mayor of Berlin from 1899 a The imperial office of the interior of Germany has come to the conclusion that frozen meat may safely be im ported into Germany if placed under a rigid system of inspection. Large quantities of such meat can be had In Australia and Argentina. The city government is making preparations for handling such meat on a large scale. The poor state of the Kaiser's health has been alarming Europe the last few weeks. His recovery has elicited sighs of relief from London to Constantinople. The Kaiser is a known quantity. His acts can be pretty well predicted. The Kaiser is strong on preparation for war. But since the death of Czar Alexander III he has been the greatest pacificist in Europe. The system may force his hand some sad day, but if so, his own disposition must be overridden. There fore the long life of the Kaiser il pretty generally desired in Europe. If he is not popular in the European Chancellaries, he is well understood, whereas they fear the accession of the Crown Prince, who is young, and has the natural rashness of youth. The fourteenth Eucharistic congress at Vienna closed with a eucharistio procession through the streets from St. Stephen's cathedral to Hofhaus palace, where in the presence of the emperor, his heir Franz Ferdinand, their entire court and probably 75,000 people, low mass was celebrated with all the pomp of the Catholic church. At the procession's head were 157 car dinals, archbishops, bishops and other clerical dignitaries, 4,000 officers of the Austrian army and all the highest officials of state. The Austrian aris tocracy has spared neither pains nor expense to make the 1912 eucharistio congress the greatest in the history. They have lavished enormous sums, paid for scores of special trains which carried visitors to the congress free and in many instances have brought entire villages to Vienna from remote parts of the country. The University of California mani fested excellent judgment by propos ing that the next Nobel peace prize be given to Kaiser Wilheim. This suggestion made the Paris Midi lose its head, as indicated by the following Gallic diatribe: For the University of California the Apostle of Peace is the man of Kiel, Tangier and Agadir the man of powder dry and sword sharp the man who increases without neces sity by one hundred thousand fighting men his provocative army, and who ceaselessly burdens German taxpay ers with the cost o&jnore and more battleships who has not allowed a day to pass for twenty years without cracking the whip in our ears. The President of the University of Cali fornia who takes the responsibility for this colossal buffoonery is not called Mark Twain, nor is he the professor of class in wit and humor. He must be some Teuton immigrant. The Yan. kee universities are full of these false Americans, recently naturalized and speaking with a pronounced Hamburg accent. They are as graceful as bears dancing on their hind legs. They im port German science just as others of their compatriots import beer and sausages. They innoculate the rising American generation with a fierce dis like of the French language and litera ture. They disfigure the scholastio curriculum. The result of this Ger man immigration and culture is that now the traveling Yankee marks him self off from the traveling Englishman, not only by a nasal twang, but by a marked German air. This is noticed in all the European hotels. The American of today bears the same r& lation to the Englishman as the cart horse does to the thoroughbred. Ha looks upon William the Second as a species of Charlemange, wherein again he differs greatly from the English man. One man was dying and five were missing when the torpedo boat G-171 was rammed and sunk by the battle ship Zahringen in a series of night maneuvers off Helgoland. It was sup posed that the torpedo boat, under cover of daikness, was attempting to, get up alongside the battleship when the larger craft made an un expected turn. The small boat was smashed in and went down almost inv mediately. Her crew jumped into the water and boats immediately put out to her aid. Only two were picked up, one the fatally injured man. The Men Who Succeed as heads of large enterprises are men of great energy. Success today demands health. To ail is to fail. It's utter folly for a man to endure a weak, run-down, half alive condition when Electric Bit ters will put him right on his feet in short order. "Four bottles did me more real good than any other medicine I ever took," writes Chas. B. Allen, Sylvania, Ga.
