the Japanese fleet was not known
this morning when the brilliant array
of (slicers and diplomatists assembled
In. the magnificent Kazan cathedral to
attend the Te Deum In honor of the
birth of the heir apparent, Alexis. The
stately edifice, adorned with military
and naval trophies, colors, eagles and
keys of captured fortresses was filled
with smbassadon, generals, admirals
and court and government functionar-
les. The Grand Duke Alexia, wearing
the resplendent uniform of high admi-
ral. occupied the chief place as the god-
father selected by the emperor for his
first born son. as a special compliment
to the much tried navy. The Metro-
politan read to the congregation the
manifesto announcing the birth and
then the whole assemblage bended
knee and as the prelate invoked God's
blessing on the future emperor. Vet-
eran warriors were shaken with emo~
lion and many persons wept and pray-
ed audibly “May the Almighty send
him many ears of happiness." The
congregation dispersed amid the
sounds of hell ringing from all the
churches. ,
Similar services were held through-
out the empire.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.~Consul
General Gooduow has reported to the
state department that the Russian
cruiser Askold arrived at Shanghai to-
day seriously damaged and wanted to
dock. ,The Taotai has written to the
Russian consul general, Mr. Goodnow
states that the cruiser and torpedo
boat must not remain more than 24
hours. The Russian consul general
raises the point that they are entitled
to remain a reasonable time to make
repairs.
ST, PETERSBURG, Aug. 13.——2:03
p. m.—-—The gladness of the people at
the announcement of the birth of the
heir apparent could notbe fully shared
at Peterhof. The emperor this morn.
ing received a telegram from Telug-
chou enhancing the death of RearAd—
miralv Withoft and the result of the
sortie of the Russian warships. leaving
no doubt of the severe character of the
reverse sustained by the Port‘ Arthur
.squadron. The contents of the tele-
gram were telephoned to the admiralty
and became quickly known throughout
the city. The return of the majority
of the Russian warships to Port Arthur
has not softened the blow. 0n the
contrary. it is felt that their retreat
towards the beleaguered fortress has
dashed the hopes of a juncture with the
Vladivostok squadron. ‘Naval men
believe. however. that ihe Japanese
were badly battered and that Admiral
Togo will not be in a position to fol‘
low up his success.
The Associated Press is able on the
highest authority to deny the report
that Argentine warships have been
purchased by Russia and that they
have joined the Vladivostok squadron.
The admiralty strongly repudiates
the allegation that Ithe battleship
Czarevltch is being repaired with Ger-
man assistance. No such breach of
neutrality is possible. The report is
attributed by the admiralty to a Japan-
ese source the Japanese. it isuadded,
hoping to offset it against their own
flagrant violation of neutrality in the
attack on and capture of the Russian
torpedo boat destroyer Ryeshitelni at
Chefoo.
SHANGHAI, Aug. 13, Morning.—
Qreat excitement was caused here yes—
terday by the news that four Russian
warshipshad anchored off the Saddle
islands. During the afternoon Rus-
sian torpedo boat destroyer Grozovoi
steamed up the river, having vainly at—
tempted to make Tsi‘ngchou, being
headed off by the Japanese. The
Gromvoi is very dirty and unpainted
and her crew are black with smoke
and grime. They had «hard steaming
to escape the Japanese. Later the
Russian protected cruiser Askold. with

her ilfih funnel gone- close .to the
deck. all the tunnels riddled with shell
holes, one gun" on the port side dis-
mounted and. several large sheliholes
above the water line, and with one
lieutenant and eleven men killed and
fifty men wounded. it is said that the
Askold intends to go into dock today
and stop the leaks under water.

”——
For a long time i have realized the
need of pure water in The Norwalks.
consequently have been at work on a
filter which I now consider perfected,
use In my home for nearly a year. The
Norwalk water so filtered has given
complete satisfaction and has been
pronounced by some to be as pure and
healthful as Arethusa water.
Following Is an analysis made by the
chemist oi Newhope Sanitarium, of
New Haven:

.Spcclmen, drinking water.
Total hardness, 46. parts per million.
Chlorine, 2. parts per million,

(Organic). .2 parts per million.
Above results indicate that the sam-
ple is an exceptionally fine drinking
water, and in no way contaminated by
objectionable matter.
Pure water and plenty of it In con-
ceded by all medical authorities to be
necessary to our health and well—being
woven more necessary than pure food.
So that all who wish may have pure
water, i have decided to sell and do
enable prico of five cents per gallon.
A five-gallon stone jug, which the deal~
or said he had retuiled at one dollar
and twenty-five cents, must be purchas-
ed by each consumer at the rule -ol‘
seventy-five cents apiece. Anyone
ceasing to use the water may return
the jug and have their money refund-
ed. . ' ,
The necessity of putting In a large
battery of filters will involve consid-
erable expense. so before putting them
in, i wish to know if enough people will
avail themselves of the opportunity of
getting pure Water to warrant my so
doing. For this purpose the water
will be on demonstration for the week
beginning August 15th. at F. E. Lock

ployers wish to obtain it by the barrel.
