nonnced Parnoll, uHd who has assisted
tho anti-Parnellitcs in all their recent

to notice tho moral aspect of their

were stepped to the lips in the same
ccsspool. He continues in this remarkn-
bio language: "Mind what ! say, and
know that can prove that ireland is
disEraced in London by y filthy gang Of
Irish black=uards. This Augean stable
must be cleaned out. The Irish wolf

OF our representatives by the lapdog Of
London" The Canon threatens to GX-

The Standard publishes n communica-
ton in regard to the recent so-callcd
aggressive action OF Russia in pamir,
which says: ut is high time for Eng.
land to unshcath her sword in Asia.
The Russian tide OF conquest which has
flowed steadily eastward for fifty years
must be sent sweeping back to the Cas-
plans. Russia has boldly pushed on
until now she stands at tho very out.
posts of,lndia."
The Standard cditoria,ly says OF this
communication that it has no liking for
'scarni,' and that its purpose is mot
to suggest alarm, but to enforce tho
necessity OF iirmness and vigilance"
adding: "There is no question of hos
t~i!itiCs, but ii it were possible to con-
ceivc 4 struggle for supremacy in Asia
it should be decided in Pamir. 1t would
be an easy matter lorour Indian author
ltlos to pull down the eagle which, in
lll-tlmcd Chauvinism, q Cossack conf
mander hoisted in tho wilderness. The
game OF bounce has so far played with
success, but there is n limit beyond
which it cannot be pushed. The signal

Cabinet OF St. James speaks clearly on
the subject.

1t is estimated by Senator BaranoT
that no fewer than s. 1000, 900 OF peasants

be provided for for the next ten months.
1t will require 10000, 900 pools OF grain
to feed them. The American church in
St. Petersburg has started u subscrip-
ton list TO relieve this misery. Prince
korsakoiI, head OF q great family, lives
OH koosewort bread, rs an example for

the example during the national atilic-
ton.
The advent OF the German exercising
SQUADRON ut | Portsmouth, which will
occur shortly, will be made q political
offset to the visit OF the French squad

shown to the Frenchmen when they
were here. If the officers should hap
pen to come to London they will be the
guests OF the United Service club, and

Her numerous admirers will hear
with delight and possibly with surprise,
that Patti has decided to abandon the
red-gold hair which was the subject OF
so much talk when last she was seen in

concert she will DO seen with ravens
