Covington’s two great needs at pre9t3nt, are more residences and more manufacturing enterprises We won hi bo glad to see the busi¬ ness men of l he town take these two matters up. The Senate killed the Child Labor Bill as was expected. The people of Georgia must take charge of the situation and elect to the tiext legislature only mmi who are .friendly to this great measure. Advertising is the very life of trade. Occasionally a merchant remarks that he basu’t anything particular toadvertise. It’sn great mistake. So long as the doors of :auy business house are open just long should every merchant •have a regular talk with the public •through the columns of the local ipaper. It is by far the best and cheapest plan ol advertising. Just as quickly ns the merchant-jhimself »becomes lax about pushing his business then can he certainly ex vpect the public to do the same.

HOW HE COT THE'RE [Original.] General Nogi was sitting in his tent before Port Arthur when it was an¬ nounced that Martin Bowles, an Amer¬ ican who had been granted an inter¬ view, was waiting without. The gen¬ eral directed that the man be admitted. Martin Bowles was a light complex loncd man, with very little of the American In him. Indeed, ho had been in Europe ever since he was ten years old, and ail of the Yankee had beeu dropped except the dare devil spirit that he bad inherited from his father, who had been one of Mosby’3 men in the American civil war, while his moth¬ er bad been born in Connecticut. Young Bowles was closeted with General Nog! for two hours, at the end of which time be emerged from the tent and went his way. The Russians In one of the principal forts defending Port Arthur were ex¬ pecting a night attack. Their search¬ lights were moving nervously over the slopes beneath, star rockets were burst¬ ing in the air, easting brief and faint illuminations into depressions directly beneath them, while parachute torches served the same purpose of throwing light directly downward. On a side hill opposite the Russian forts crouched a man. The light cast by the star rockets and parachutes was too faint to reveal him, but he would be readily seen If a searchlight were point¬ ed directly at him. He watched their motions till he saw one coming in his direction. It was moving slowly, as if the searchers were examining every de¬ tail. Presently It reached his position and stopped. There Is .something trying in having one of these silent sheaves of light pointed at you. You know some one hidden In darkness 13 looking at yo • Every stone, every blade of grass about you, glistening, tells how plainly you are seen, and you expect either to hear the spiteful "ping” of a sharp shooter’s bullet or feel It pierce your vitals. But the man on the hillside had no such fear. Indeed, he was pleased when the light was turned upon him and stopped. lie wore a tattered Rus¬ sian uniform, and as soon as he was satisfied that he was observed he wav¬ ed his hand. Then immediately the searchlight was turned away. The man got up and walked rapidly down the hill. Midway between the position he had occupied and the fort he met a company of Russian soldiers. The commander of the fort had sent them to enable one of their comrades to enter his own lines. Perhaps he might have valuable Information. lie was taken to the general, who question¬ ed him eagerly. He said that he was Ivan Vestlovsky and had belonged to the garrison of a fort near by on the right which had been stormed and taken the day before at dusk. Ho had escaped in the gather¬ ing darkness and hidden in a deserted rifle pit on the hillside. There he had observed the dispositions of the Jap¬ anese, who were forming for an at¬ tack. “Where* are their strong?-t forces ?” asked the general, “oa oar right or left:" "From my position," replied Ivan “under the light of your rockets and parachutes, I could sea them massing on your left. There is a small force o:i your right, hut they seemed to mo to lie nearly ready to move.” “I see,” said the general. "That wily fox Nogi is going to feint on our right and storm our left.” Theu he gave or¬ ders to move the most effective guns t > the left. On the Russian right was the hill on which Ivan Vestlovsky had been dls covered. It was Just high enough to prevent the Russians from seeing over its crest. On their left was a compara¬ tively long stretch of open ground swept by their artillery, beyond which the ground was again uneven. At 2 o’clock in the morning suddenly a para¬ chute revealed a force of Japanese marching In a depression In the ground far to the right where the Tlew was not obstructed by the hill. At the time a considerable force was ob¬ served further away on the left. This seemed to couflrm Ivan’s story. But the force on the right grew larger and when within range an overwhelming forco of Japanese hurried over the crest of (he bill and before the guns could be turned swept on to the moat, planted scaling ladders ami in a twinkling the fort had been captured. "I wish to see General Nogi, said one of tlie Russian prisoners iu fairly good Japanese. j Tb« officer lu charge looked at the man as if he suspected his sanity, but was still more surprised when the gen¬ eral hurrying up with his staff was hailed by the prisoner, and turning came up to him and embraced bim. “We owe you everything.” he said. I Then he told the officer that he would ; take the prisoner away with him. | The two went to that side of the fort , which had not beeu fought over and when the general saw the guns all I there he embraced the prisoner again. “ Mr Howl «* 4 ” be said, "I saw through a) J' <?'*»«*» the Russians moving these j guns and knew that your ruse had been aucccssftil. You have enabled us at the risk of your life to capture easily a strong fort In our way. Now, how can I reward you?” “General,” replied Mr. Bowles. “I am a bom American, and a Yankee never ioes something for nothing? 1 repre¬ sent an American newspaper and I want permission to send dispatches. • * “Keep near to my headquarters, • • said the general with a grim smile, "and I’ll favor you whenever I can do lt without risking my plans.” “I knew I'd get there.” said the Yaokoo.
