Rutslan Officers Declare He Did Right Thing in Surrendering. Three paroled Russian naval captains and eleven lieutenants have arrived in San Francisco from Port Arthur, en route to Russia, on the steamship Siberia. The naval officers had no criticism of General Stoessel or the conduct of the defense of Port Arthur beyond the fact that the Russian fleet was undermanned and had not a sufficient supply of ammunition when the war began. Port Arthur, they said, would have fallen the latter part of August had it not been for the strengthening of the land forces with guns and men from the fleet. said Captain General Stoessel is a brave soldier, a Von Essen, great general and a true patriot. He had lots of ammunition certainly, but I never heard of any army which could live on ammunition. Lack of food was the main reason for the surrender. There were not more than 10,000 soldiers in the garrison when it was surrendered. able-bodie- MANY BUILDINGS BURNED. Indianapolis Has Big Fire Which Will Cause Loss of Over a Million.

His Death Had Been Decreed by Revolutionists in December and Sentence Was Executed at First Opportunity. Grand Duke Sergius, uncle of the czar of Russia and leader of the reactionaries, met a terrible death in Moscow shortly before 3 oclock Friday afternoon. The deed was committed by a single terrorist, who threw beneath the carriage of the grand duke a bomb charged with the same high powdei explosive which wrought Minister von Plehves death. The missile was packed with nails and fragments oi iron, and its explosion tore the Imperial victims body to ghastly frag ments, which strewed the snow fot yards around. Every window in the great, lofty facade of the palace o( Justice was shattered and bits of iron were Imbedded deeply in the walls ol the arsenal, 100 yards away. On the snow lay fragments of the body of Grand Duke Sergius, mingled with the wreck of the carriage. The grand dukes head had been torn from his body and reduced to a shapeless pulp, and the trunk and limbs were frightfully mangled. A finger bearing a rich sea! ring was found lying several yards away. The crimson tint and the smell of blood were everywhere Only a few fragments of clothing indicated that the body bad been clothed. The coachman lay moaning with pain beside a deep hole in tbe pavement. The horses dragging tbe front wheels of the carriage, had dashed off maddened with pain, to sink dying before they reached the gate. Tbe assassin was thrown to the ground and stunned by the force of the explosion, but be immediately rose and ran toward the gate, attempting to escape. His haste and the blood streaming from his face, where be had been wounded by fragments of the bomb attracted the attention of a sergeant of police, who seized him before he could draw a revolver. Tbe man did not deny bis crime, but, on the contrary, gloried in Its success. He expressed his satisfaction that Li bad been able to kill the grand duke He without involving the duchess. avowed bis membership in tbe Social revolutionary organization, but refused to give bis name, and at the Jail his papers were found to be forged. The assassin belongs to the noted fighting group" of tbe socialist revolutionary party, which has removed other prominent officials and long since passed a sentence of death upon Grand Duke Sergius. The grand duke is understood to have been condemned to death by the revolutionary party in December last. The governor generalship ot Moscow was abolished early In the year, and the grand duke, according to dispatches from Moscow January 4, kept Biskou-tohn- y closely to the Moson of the outskirts palace, cow, retaining his position as commander-in-chief of the military district. Later In Janaury, however. It was announced that the grand duke had sought refuge In one of the palaces of the Kremlin. He has been classed as the most reactionary member of the Imperial family, at tbe head of what is referred to as tbe war party, and has been slgmatlzed by tbe liberals as Russia's evil genius Grand Duke Sergius was born in 1857, and was married In 1884 to Princess Elizabeth of They have no children. d Hesse-Darmstad- t.

Not during the last six years has the equal of the present cold weather been experienced In the west and In many places no sucb low temperatures have been recorded since the establishment of the weather bureau. The cold wave extends from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico and from the Rocky mountains to the Atlantic. all Freezing weather is reported t Trough the south. In the north the mercury has registered all the way from zero to 43 degrees below taro, the latter mark being scored at Richland Center, Wis.

There are insects, mostly parasitic, which, like some men, only desire to eat and drink. But among the social insects, such as ants and bees, there is a high development of moral qualities, says Pearson's Weekly, to which Haeckel goes the length of applying the term soul life, to distinguish them from mere instinct. Thus patriotism is obviously a virtue among ants, for if an ant hill is disturbed the inmates never attempt to escape from danger, but apply themselves immediately to rescue the lives and property of the community as a whole. Respect for law and order Is also very strongly marked in some communities of ants, which Include soldiers and workers, peasants and artisans, governors and slaves.

After being prodded for some time, Bruin started to come out, when one of the men struck him on the nose with an ax and drove him back, another cutting a part of one of his paws off. After this Bruin refused to show himself again, so the men poked 3 chain in where he was and finally succeeded in getting it around one of his legs. The whole crew had assembled by this time and all got hold of the chain and gave a long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together. Bruin resisted for a time and then suddenly decided to come out; his appearance was so sudden that the relaxation on the chain gave the men a grand tumble; the bear took adand, vantage of their confusion, springing among them, made jumpers and mittens fly in a lively manner until the men scattered beyond his reach; he then shook the chain from his footand escaped to a swamp, where a party with guns pursued him, but without capture.
