NEWSPAPER MEN IN RUSSIA.

journalism in Russia is anything but
an agreeable and profitable calling. In
country where the private rights of the
most favored classes are enjoyed with a
very uncertain tenure, the condition OF
the Russian newspaper man is very
wretched. He is allowed no liberty of
action or expression. He never knows
when he is safe from the hands of the au,
thorities, as he can never tell what utter
ances will give ofense. He has no de,
fined or limited duties, the performance
of which will assure him safety.
He is always subject to the caprices Of
the tyrannous, ignorant or malicious
Even silence is as dangerous at times as
the strongest and most Independent ex'
preston of opinion.
The dungeons of military prisons, OF
the hopeless darkness of the Siberian
mines, have been the sad fate of very
many of the ablest and most patriotic
writers of the country. 1t is alleged that
not single prominent writer of Russia
has been permitted to enjoy a tranquil
life, or has died Of old age, 'but that the
lot of genius in Russia is poverty, per
secution, the prison, exile and premature
death" Radizchef, the first writer to
give faithful picture of the condition o.
the serfs in the time of Catharino II, was
sent to Siberia for life.
From that period to the present day
the Russian journalist must either fiji
the character Of fawning sycophant o.
a martyr. Some have been hanged
many sentenced to hard labor in tn,
mines, Others have fed to foreign lands
several eminent writer's have died O
starvation, while those who are still per
mitted to write are kept under the sur
veillance of the police.
The situation of those last is far NOR
desirable financially speaking, Th
Golos says that ninety per cent of on
Russian literary men are poor, and dali,
struggle for their daily bread. Add t
this the various accidents that befall al
literary work, wretched pay (bv the line
and the restrictive regulations undc,
which they work, and one has true pic
ture Of the Russian journalist.
Of course the enterprise of publishing
a paper in a business point of view i
very precarious and frequently ruinou
to the owner. Only short time sine,
the editor of the St. Petersburg News
one of the most prosperous papers in tn
country, was officially ordered to chang
the character Of his paper or sell it. III
chose the latter alternative at ruinou
sacrifice. For the most triAing expires
sions papers receive warnings or are atom
totally suppressed or their proprietor
mulcted in bllrdensome fines. 1t is
matter of astonishment that with al
these discouraging surroundings so man,
talented Russians still brave the peril
and poverty of editorial life.

of large cities, both in England and
America. The Times concludes that
"There is not the same glory to be won in
rescuing an English waif in the purlieus
of Ratcliff highway as there is in con-
victing stray niger in the wilds OF
Africa" but that charity "should none
the less begin at home"

FIFTY years ago, October 10Th, George
6tephenson's locomotive first took the
track on iron rails. 1t is now suggested
that this day should be properly cele-
brated by railroad men, so many thou
sands of whom now spend their lives in
speeding over the iron track. 1t would
certainly be better than celebrating the
anniversaries of so many Indian massa-
cres.

Pixies OPERA HOUSE.
Mahn's Fifth Avenue Opera Company
commenced an engagement here last night
presenting the latest light opera sensation
'Fatinitza." The piece is most beautifully
put upon the stage, rejecting high credit
upon the management of Pixies. 1t is sell
dom we have seen more artistic piece of
stage setting than that shown in the first
scene. The company is altogether pretty
good one, and we are given better idea of
the bright, excellent music in "Fatnitza." 1"
Miss Jennie Winston in size, dress and gem
era appearance is much better "Valadi-
mer" than Corelli, but she hasn't the Alice
Oates dart of the latter. She, however,
sings the part we'll and acts it with more
smoothness and "manly" grace than does
| Coreli. Miss Reber is a charming little
singer, and makes as pretty a princess

done, though we saw it to less advantage
here, as that was the only part that was
really finely done by the previous com
pany. All the other partswere exceptably
rendered. and some of them deserve espec
ial praise. 'Fatinitza" is charming opera

GRAND OPERA-HOUSE.

Maggie Mitchell, the charming little
actress who is a favorite in every city of
the country, opened an engagement here
last night as 'Jane Eyre" in the play Of
that name. Maggie Mitchell is acknowl-
edged to be without a rival in her particu-
lar school, and few more attractive and
ENJOYABLE entertainments are offered than
are found in the plays she presents. She
comes this time well supported by Mr..
Harris and full company and the piece is
well put upon the stage. Tfis evening,
however, she will be seen to better advan-

prosperity and enterprise of the Cincinnati
Daily Star. 1t is now one of the very
best papers in the State. 1t has lately been
enlarged andis now the neweiest paper that
comes to our table. What makes it still
more valuable is that its news is always
reliable, while its editorials are character
lied by breadth and fairness that is
truly refreshing in these daysof trucking

4 speedy Commencement Of the
Work Desirable.

We understand that the money appropriated
for building the new National Museum Is avail

necessary to delay commencement OF the work
until the beginning Of the fiscal year. or 1st or
July. This being the case, contracts can De
made for the materials, and we suppose taat
the bricks. broken stone, sand, lime and cement
may be contracted for as soon as bids can De
received and examined and the lowest reSpon-
sible bidder ascertained.
or course our people have great advantages
In this competition, bricks. sand liine stone,
and broken stone for the foundations and con-
crete floors are abundant within the limits of
the District of Columbia, and no outside party
can successfully compete for these local pro-
dncts The building, according to the plans on
file In the room Of the Joint committee OF public

in this District, nor is the glass; nor the cement.

dant here, and labor and mechanical skill are
also abundant and anxiously walt the COM

been appointed, to whom the management of
the work of the National Museum building has
been committed by the Regents OF the Smith

1t will be remembered that the law requires
the work to be done under the direction of these
Regents, and many people now look anxiousIy
to them and hope that they remember that, In
this matter, they are but trustees of the peoples
