II The Russian people no longer need to
be warned that they IN ust strain all the
resources of the Empire if they would
come out OF this war, not merely with
honor, but without disgrace. They al
ready feel the pinch of tinaecial adKersi-
ty. Some enthusiasts have suggested
that people who have broken or super
fuous articles of silver should send them
to the mint to be coined; but more pro-
sale minds are seriously discussing the
necessity of raising another foreign loan.
Iu the centres of Russian intelligence
there seems to be a general conviction

campaign. i Ht,.ia ~ T.. IFe -
+ Naturally, the disasters in Bulgaria are
the then of profound wonder, disap-
pointment, and anger. Nobody Imagined
that the Turks we're so Well armed, so
well led, so clearly match for the best
troops of Russia even in the open field.
The war was begun with the vague dHa
that, after some hard fighting. the Turks
would beg for peace, or be driven back
to Constantinople. The Russian find that
they have been profoundly mistaken. The
alarming fact is that the military skilbof
Russia seems to have fallen off although
the atmosphere of her public life is mill
tary. She also shows far greater ten
dency than in past times to keep the
highest posts of command within the
nartom circle ofthe imperial family. No
such fault was com nrtted in her great
wars with Napoleon or in her former
contests with Turkey. The Princes have
shown no capacity beyond what might
serve General of Brigade in quiet times,
and none of them have given the slight
est proofs of ability to handle great mas
ses of men,. Nor is the worst part of the
mischief summond up in their positive
~ .Il - s-.
their own hands, they have, it would
seem, stunted the growth, of sneh mill

These facts are the theme of bitter
comment in Russian society, and they
will bear political fruit after the war.

is MARS INHABITED?

Is this neighboring world the abode of
living creatures? This question is be-
yond the present power, OF science to an
swer. But would it not be strange be-
yond expression if world, with land and
water, and apparently all the conditions
required by life. SO like our earth that it
is even possible that man could exist on
its surface, should roll on through the
ages uninhabited and unenjoyed? Our
earth teens with life in its remotest cor
ner, yet some Martial astronomer may. at
this moment be wondering what is the
use of us, and whether our planet is the
abode of intelligent beings. After the
wonders that science has already achiev-
ed he would be bold who should say
that this problem can never be solved.
Unfortunately We cannot hope for much
of the Improvement of our telep phones
and the increase -of-their -magnifying
power. The disturbances produced by
our atmosphere are aggravated by every
such increase. But when the problem of
life in other worlds IS solved-if it ever
shall be-it seems safelto say that it will
be. by the attentive study of our near
neighbor. Gulq1y for October. i2l5 26a 's,S az

The clergy Of Philadelphia are still as

Exhibition for opening the show on Sun
days, Sermon follows sermon on the sub

Sabbath by the Exhibition Association
makes it the duty of Christians to with
draw their exhibits, and the duty of all
who respect the law of God and of the
State in relation to the Sabbath to refuse
to give their countenance or support in
any mannerof measures to the exhibi-
tion." Another association tell the mana
gers that they should "consider whether
inthe late troubles that have afflicted our
State and country, the calamities, that
have fallen to corporations, the downfall
of individuals who have been conspicuous
in connection with SABBATH, desecfation,
they should not hear the voice Of God
speaking in His displeasure and saying to
them; Remember the Sabbath day to keep

the effect Of these disclosures. To the
