LONDON, April 9.—"Russia has now changed her tactics," saya a dispatch to the Daily Mail, from Tokio, "and is mak ing desperate efforts to secure not only Japan's neutrality, but her benevolent assistance towards Russia's far eastern schemes." BERLIN, April 3.—Russia's declaration renouncing a separate agreement with China, since it relieved all separate ne gotiations from having further influence upon the diplomatic situation at Pekln, and the general negotiations cannot pro ceed uninterruptedly. It is said in offi cial circles that Russia would not with draw from Manchuria, and now any pewer proposing a withdrawal must be prepared to attempt to oust her by fcrce. The correspondent of the Associated Fiess learns that the controversy be tween Russia and Japan on the subject of Korea has been conducted with the greatest caution on both sides, showing an earnest wish to avoid a conflict. The Berlin diplomats do not expect a conflict. The latest phase of the Manchurian question is very differently judged by different sections of the German MAY BE ONLY POSTPONED. The Freisinnige Zeitung, Herr Rich ter's organ, says: "For the moment tho situation is eased and the conclusion of peace is hastened, but so far aa the future is concerned the situation is ren dered mere complicated, lor as soon as the allied forces are withdrawn the mili tary superiority of Russia will become overwhelming for China, who will proba bly grant Russia better terms than now, when she is upheld by the allies. "While war between Russia and Japan is now deferred their conflicting inter ests remain regarding North China, and it is probable that war will break out be tween them soon after peace with China is signed." The Voessische Zeitung which sees a Russian diplomatic defeat in Russia's abandonment of the Manchurian conven tion, says* "It must have been hard for Count Lamsdorf to instruct the Russian ambas sadors to that effect, especially as Russia had'from the start rendered the diplomatic settlement in China as dif ficult as possible by stiffening the back bone of China against the allies, particu larly with regard to the withdrawal of troops from the province of Chi Li." The National Zeitung takes the view of the German foreign office. The Freisinnige Zeitung expresses a hope that at least a portion of the Ger man troops may now be withdrawn from China, adding; that otherwise Germany would be completely isolated there. It says the Chinese forces should have been dispatched without waiting for China's consent. MORMON APOSTLE DYING RELATIVES OF GEORGE 0,. CANNON SUMMONED TO HIS BEDSIDE].

Lightning changes may be proper enough on the stage, but. not in depots— so tiiinks Patrolman Bause. Shortly af ter 7 o'lock last evening a plump, weil rounded form-, clad in tight-fitting skirt and waist and topped off with a shawl closely drawn about the wearer's head, alighted from a train arriving at the union depot from St. Cloud. The form hurried to a toilet room, and after a few minutes secretion appeared again in trousers and coat and was sure enough a man. For Patrolman Bause this was too much. He felt that explanations were forthcoming. He hurried to the person of apparently confused gender and began to ask questions. Not being able to sat isfy himself that the proceedings Tvere perfectly proper he sent the man to the central station. At the station the man gave his name as Thomas Lienrocht. He could not speak English, but in German informed the officers that he lived near St. Cloud and had decided yesterday to leave the town. To spare himself the pain of say ing numerous farewells he prevailed upon his sister-in-law to lend him a part of her wardrobe. This he donned and quietly slid out without attracting the least attention. He was very anxious that he be not misunderstood and assured the officers that his motives were the purest. He was not a fugitive, and indulged in the ; little escapade more out Qf love for nov elty and fun than through a desire to de ceive. His explanations were not satisfactory enough to secure his release. He was lodged at the station for the night and an attempt will be made to learn his standing from the St. Cloud officials. .'.' — '■ ; im — COMMISSIO.NERS ORGANIZE.

Miss Minnie Kuhn, forty-eight years old, living at 2005 Frankford avenue, Philadelphia. Pa., writes: "For eighteen years I worked sewing on ladles' white goods. I was all this time in one place, until I was com pelled *to stop sewing, as my health became so poor. At first my eyes started to ache, and I ' had terrible headaches, but I still kept on sewing. I went to a doctor, but it seemed I was getting worse, as I started to get dizzy. I could not sit up, and my back ached me so that I had to leave my place. I took this very hard, as I did not like to stay away from my work, but I had to on account of my health: I could not eat, and got downhearted, and I felt dull pains in my stomach. I still kept on doctor ing, but changed my doctor, as first one did me no good. The firm I work ed for sent for me, but I could not go back, as I did not feel any better. One of the girls that I worked with came to see me, and told me she had tried Ripans Tabules for stomach trouble, and they did her much good, and ask ed me to get some and just give them a trial. I did send for a package, and after taking the first of them found my headaches were not so severe, and then I began to get encouraged. I got a few packages and took them steadily, and within two weeks' time I felt much better. I bought more, and now I am in good health and can do a day's sewing and do not feel any ef fects from it. I" owe all my thanks to Ripans Tabules, and any one that Is troubled like me I always tell to take them. They are the only thing that helped me. You can use my tes timonial, as I think you deserve suc cess." •- There Is scarcely any condition of 111 health that Is not benefited by th« occasional use of a R.I.P.A.N.S Tabula, and the price. 10 for 5 cents, does not bar them from any home or justify any one In enduring: Ills that are easily cured.
