PREFERENCES IN RUSSIA.
 Some account of the remarkable temper ance movement in Russia has recently been given in these columns, but at that time the facts necessary to clear and comprehensive statement of the situation were not obtain able. A writer in the Nineteenth Century has since given full history of the move ment and his article is both interesting and instructive.
 He ascribes the excessive use of alcohol in Russia to the climate, to the meagreness of the diet of the people and to the severity of the religious lasts. The crusade against alco- hol began in the time of tho late Emperor The drink shops in Russia diminished from 273,2O7 in 1864 to 146, 500 in 1881. In 1877 they numbered 131 9S5 and since his death the decline has increased at great rate. As tribute to his memory, and the deep dam nation of his taking off, many communes voted closure of the liquor shops. It is an axiom in Russia that the smaller the number of liquor shops in a community the greater it's prosperity. There are great manufacturers near Moscow who employ only total abstain CTS; extra tea is provided and extra wages are paid. One of the first acts of the new Czar was to appoint 8 Committee of the Ministry of Finance to decide upon steps to be taken to prevent the abuse of spirituous liquors. The Committee had eleven sessions, and drew up a plan of reform, which was submitted to Commission of thirty four ex- ports, whose first meeting in Parliament was opened by General Ignatieff with an ''anti- dram shsp'' speech war on the abuse of liquor, but no injury to the revenue
 Briefly, the scheme suggested by the Com mission involves reduction of the number of dram shops, increased surveillance, higher license fees. communal local option, the sale of tea in tho public houses. In the large towns it is proposed to provide free amuse- ments, and in small places reading and tea rooms. One feature of the recommenda- tions of th1s Commission was that no Tal- mudist Jew should be allowed to sell liquor It is declared by Jewish papers in Russia that 100, ,OOO Jewish families will be reduced to penury if Jews are not allowed to take out licenses This is rather a large margin of Jewish liquor sellers for a total Hebrew pop uiation of about 3, ,OOO, ,OOO. Another recom- mendation of the Commission was to encour- age the sale of beer. The Orthodox Church gives it's influence to the temperance cause and issues books and anatomical plates which are distributed and placarded. In some towns the people organize committee !. of surveillance, compel early hours at the saloons, and if they find man drunk take him home. For the first offence he is ad- monished before his family, for the second in public. for the third he is fined. Count Ignatieff issues cheap paper, the PiNoge Messenger, and distributes 800, ,OOO copies weekly. It exposes Nihilism, teaches pat riotism, religion and temperance and has millions of readers.
 The temperance reformsrs of Russia are evidently in earnest. Those who gre engaged in the same work in this country will wish them much success.

Chess Played With Living Pieces" From the Pail Mall Gazette

The Rev. c. c. Chevallier, the Vicar of Heighing' on in order to raise fund to pro vide bells for the parish church, arranged yesterday for game of chess to be played in Redforth Park, by players who were dressed to represent the different pieces on the chess board The day was fine and a large and fashionable company was attracted from Darlington Bishop Auckland and other parts of the district. There was a consider able space of greensward roped on in the park which laid out in squares. The band escorted the opposing forces on to the ground, who marched in procession and pre- sented most picturesque appearance in their fifteenth century cosCume. The prevailing color of the costume of the players on one side was green, and on the other red. The pawns were dressed as pages of the fifteenth century, with long pointed shoes and tights. The castles were limitations of the castles known in chess, consisting of canvas in which four young ladies were enveloped. The bishops appeared in bishops costumes, those in red being the cardinals. The two gentlemen who directed the players were the Rev. c. c. Chevallier and Mir. Johnson, of the Heighington school The moves were faultlessly made, showing that the players had been well drilled.

w. Sperry is the man who has at last
achieved what the farmers of the wheat
producing regions of the country have
long sought for, but in vain. He may ex-
claim Eureka" 1 have found it. This
achievement consists in furnishing to the
world the most perfect grain separator
now in use. Mr.. Sperry, man of fine
mechanical powers, and has devoted a
large amount of time upon this his latest
and most practical invention, which needs
only to be seen to be appreciated. His
practical tests in separating the most
thorough mixture of oats, wheat. and
barley, in common size mill, at the rate
of sixty bushels per hour, upon the
grounds, won the praise and admiration
of all who beheld it. For rapidity
in the production of marketable
grain out of the worst mixture in the
world it is simply marvellous.
C1Mr. Sparry. also furnishes an extra
screen for taking out cookie and for fitting
up seed. His mill has six fans and large
air holes, and thus obtains a fine draft of
air, which is easily regulated by means of
blinds to the most perfect degree of force.

This device for separating foul seed
from good grain or for sorting differ
,ent kinds of grain is one of particular in
terest and one which, as it performs its
task thoroughly. and perfectly, commands
general attention. 1t is exhibited by the
La-Du-King manufacturing company
of Rochester, Mimi. 1t possesses
the admirable quality of perform
ing its work very rapidly or very
slowly, very perfectly or only partially.
Any grade OF grain desired for market or
seed can be procured by the proper ad-
justment of the screen. The feature,
however, which Just now is OF the most in
terest, is the way in which it separates
flax seed. This can be done to perfection.
Seed containing so per cent. of foul
stuff, was rapidly and perfectly cleaned.
leaving the fax seed absolutely pure.
The King cookie mill uses no blast or
agitation and can be adjusted and operated
