ST. P~ErEEsHuEG. Dec. II. Count
Bobrinsky. marshal Of the court. has
issued an appeal for aid for the famine
sufferers in the province Of lula. There
are said to be 10000 persons in the
province dependent upon outside help.
The government relief is not sufficient to
prevent TIE ruin of the inhabitants.
Crops are an utter failure and the con-
dition of the farmers is even worse than
in 1891. The rich have become poor and
the poor have become beggars. The
peasants use the roofs of their houses
for fuel on account Of a dearth of stray,
coal and wood. Typhus fever is raging
to an alarming extent among the people,
The fever sufferers lie huddled together
in their ~roofless huts without attendance
and without bread.

against the New York police and de-
tective service, which we think might
be interpreted, that DIR. Parkhurst is
not fighting the devil himself, but is
simply waging war upon his most
chosen emissarics. At the same time
we find It hard to approve of the high
ly sensational character of Crusade
which the reverend gentleman has
been carrying on. indeed, we think
the public properly disgusted with the
sensationalIsm of the entire affair and
trust that DR., .Parkhurst will display a
sufficient appreciation of public feel

pass this latest effusion of the super
