 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the London Times tells as follows how they treat strikes and strikers in that part of the world: A strike in Russia is revolt, and is treated as such. Russian workmen are the most ignorant and unreasonable beings in the world, and would be utterly unmanage- able without the summary and extra judi cial methods of the authorities. A case oe- cured only month ago. One of the large mills had to reduce it's production and dis- charge several hands who were no longer required. A raving crowd of semi-sayage workmen surrounded the managers of the establishment and insisted that work must be found for the usual number or else they would lay rough hands upon the masters, all the more so as the latter were hated for eigners. A valuable machine was at the 1. same time secretly broken. The police soon settled the matter, and during the night if teen of the ringleaders were quietly spirited away, no one knows whither or how.

EAHY MONEY.

Senator Stanford of California is a rich man, and is willing to help make money s'easier" for others if he can. He thinks il issue legal tender notes on the basis of mort gages of the real property of the country. He argues that there is . scarcity of currency which is causing great hardship and depres sion, and if government notes are issued by banks on government bonds, why not base notes would be secured by government Her on land and buildings, and by the credit of the government as we'll. People occupying mortgaged property could accept non-in. terest bearing government lien instead of q 6 or per cent. private claim, and people owning real estate clear could execute a per- petual mortgage to the government, and re. ceive legal tenders to the full amount in re. turn. The present volume of the currency is abont q, 400, ,000, ,000, and as the assessed valuation of the real property of the land must now exceed $15, ,0O0, ,00O. 900, additional currency to the amount of probably SIG, ,o00,' GOO, 900 could thus be issued.
 The most astonishing thing about this proposition is that it comes from a man who ought to know something about money. Some such plan as this was tried in Rhode Island many years ago, and the mortgage legal tenders soon became worth about eix. teen cents on the dollar. How much more would those which Senator Stanford pro. poses be worth under conditions which are almost certain to occur if they should bs fuauA6a

Japanese Hot SprinGs. From the Cornhill Magazine, l

From the Cornhill Magszine.1 A people who so delight in social bathing naturally make the most Of the hot springe which are found in so many parts of the empire, and surruund them with quaint gar-
 dens and other pretty and characteristic de- tails. Several of the attractive watering places lie within such easy reach of Yoko- hama as to render them familiar to al foreign residents as a pleasa nt object for g delightful excursion, and in Japan such ex. GU rsions imply innumerable minor points oi interest.
 Thus my own recollections of visiting cer. tain boiling springs near the base of Fuji Yama in the month of August are as a kaleidoscope wherein blend the qusintesi medley of processions of pilgrims, teahouse scenes, driving along beautiful seacossts, and watching pretty girls devour raw little octopi and other extraordinary food, or pass- l ing beneath stately avenues of pine and | cryptomeria, past whole fields of lovely tall white lilies, grown as we grow potatoes fol l the sake of their roots, and then past ponds l devoted to the sacred lotus, whose magnifc- | cent rose or lemon colored blossoms peeped from among the great blue-green leaves, ris. l ing to height of three or four feet above | tho water. And on and on, through villages where crowds of children and grown-up folk | too were celebrating quaint mythological festival in such pretty fanciful fashion az
 seemed to suggest some fairy tale rather thar
 a page of prosaic life.
 l And then we halted for the night at tho oharmingly- primitive teahouse of Sengoko' | yu in the heart of the beautiful forest, to l which water is brought in bamboo pipe
 from boiling surplur springs at higher lev ell, and is cooled in rude but effective baths
 One of these was given up to our exclusiv
 use, drained, reflled, and screened in def
 erence to our foreign prejudice, and her'
 we reveled in peace and boiled away all tn
 aches and fatigues of our long days journey
 Then our courteous hostess arrayed us il
 cool Japanese dresses from her own ward

THE UNEMPLOYED.

1hH ONxSNxEAO kCDe ,,
 A writer in the Nationalist charges that there is an "eleventh census conspiracy" He asserts that the census officials have banded together to suppress the truth cons corning the number of unemployed or idle persons. The congressional act for securing the ceisus of 1880 provided for the ascer- tainment of the condition of every person, Whether employed or unemployed, and, if unemployed, during what portion of the year." This clause was omitted in the act for 1890. Indeed, according to the writer here referred to, 1t was not carried out in the 1880 census; nor has such information been attainable by any census excepting state enumeration in Massachusetts in 1875, when publication issued by the bureau of labor statistics in that State under the direction of Carroll D. Wright, exhibited the facts 20 far as Massachusetts was concerned. It showed the average number of days in which wage- receivers were employed in 260 of the prinol- pal industries of the State. A careful com- putation from the figures there presented showed, says this writer, "that the average idleness among those wage-receivers amount ed to almost exactly one-fourth of their time an equivalent ot 146.172 persons unem- ployed for an entire year." This calculation is based on the ground that in Massachusetts there are ASA ,690 laborers, skilled and un- skilled
 If such a state of things as is indicated here exists it is well enough to know it. Nothing is to be gained by hiding the facts.
