Thus it combines in ONE SOAP at ONE PRICE, the BEST skin and complexion soap, and the BEST toilet and baby-soap in the world.

The following notification was issued by the Admiralty on May !:-Orders have been given to postpone the Grand Blane ceuvrea which had been arranged för next month, as they may cause inconvenience it carried out then, as planned. If not, car- |ried out in their entirety they would fail tò give the lessons which it is desired to in culcaté.

Telegraphing, the Portsmouth spondent of the Standard anys Much surprise was caused in naval circles at Portsmouth by the receipt of the Admi- ralty order intimating that the grand naval manœuvres which were to hayo, been held this summer have been postpoped for the present. No reasons are assigned for this decision, which is certainly quite unpre- cedented, and, having regard to the exten, | sive programme which was foreshadowed in December by Lord Selborne, the First Lord of the Admiralty, officers and crawa will be greatly disappointed at not being afforded the opportunity of taking part in the corel and far-roaching operations which were contemplated with the view, among other things, of testing the new scheme of naval organization.

Lord Salborne, in his official statement, remarkod:-'In 1905 movements of the 1376 Heats in commission, and of a few mobilised ships, will take place all over the world, in view of the hypothetical atrained relations with an imaginary Power. The supposition will be that war has actually broken out some weeks before the period of strained relations, and the reserve squadrons at the home ports will be actually mobilised and- will proceed under the respective Rear Admirals to reinforce the floote to which they have been previously affiliated.

RUSSIA AND ENGLAND,

A Quadruple Alliance,

ST PETERSBURG, May 5.-The idea that the Anglo-French entente, which has been of incalculable value to the cause of peace during the last twelve months, might be opanded after the conclusion of hostilities into a quadruple alliance has been the subject of considerable quiet debate in political and diplomatic circles here during, the last week. Such a consummatiofi is recognized na being in the highest degree desirable, but dificulties arose when an attempt was made to discover common in terests that might serve-as-a-basis for the union of the four Powers and for the ox- clusion of all others. It is pointed out that an alliance of the four Governments would be of so general a nature as to approach the charactor of a Concert of Powers wherein all others could equally participato-that is, all others interested in the sphere in which the alliance would be effective.

On the other hand, there are indications that a re-arrangement of the Powers in another fashion is equally possible. Tho readiness of Berlin financiers to supply the war funds refused in Paris is considered to be an excellent weather vano. Some diplo. mathata believe that the Dual Allianco, which always bore the character of a maringo do convenance, will lose a large part of its attractiveness to Russia, as soon as it is apparout that France no longer desires. to pay the price. It is further re cognised that the increasing internal diffi culties of Russia would naturally cause the autocracy to seek support, not in an alliance with three countries whero constitutional ireedom obtains, but from neighbours smong whom autocratic principles survive. Russin and Germany have in common two principal sources of anxiety-Socialists and tho Poles, Germany will not attack Rus- sia, because she wants no more Poles; Russia could not attack Germany if she desired to do so. Consequently, a curtain section of diplomatists regard the growing intimacy between those two Governments as inevitable, and believe it will soon become so close that that there will remain no room for a dual alliance, or any alliance of any ́sort from which Germany is excluded. The further reflection that Russia and Austria are both reasonably content with their Agreement respecting the Pilkas Peninsula Fends naturally to the thought of the revival of the Three Emperors'' alliance. It is admitted that this revival need not necessa- rily prevent a gsod understanding between Russia and other Powers, such as Great Britain, regarding Asia. But it is pointed out that Great Britain and Russia could settle their Asian differences far more easily before Germany secured a footingaill Turkey than after. Whilst the feeling against Great Britain now finds less violent expression than in the earlier stages of the war, I am unable to discover that it has notably dininishod. —Strendærd.

The fight continued with unabated vigor until about ten o'clock at night.

By this means we reached the southern entrance to the Tsu- shima Straits and then we left the scene of the battle and took up a southerly course, which ultimately brought us hore."

What damago did you see inflicted on the Japanese while you were there? the Russian officer was asked.
