eng'ands Proper Attitude Toward
Russia.

In the course of the agitation, /
regret very much to have seen many
expressions of irritation aud OF in
dignation Mt the conduct OF Russia
Mr.. Gladstone himself not being
altogether gultless in this respect,
II is n case in which we should do
well to take the beam out of our own
eye before raying at the mote in the
eye of the Russian. In view of the
evidence now patent TO all men as
to the real essential nature of Turk
ish rule England's attitude toward
Russia ought certainly not to be
that of resentment or of indigna-
tion. Granting that, for the mo-
ment, the policy of reserve and of
inaction adopted by Russia is most
deplorable in the interests of hu-
manity, it is but passing episode
of few months Mt the most. But
Encland's attitude for fifty years
has been just that which Russia has
adopted within the last twelve
months. Let us grant, if you please,
the worst that eau be said against
Russian policy, the effect of which
has been to secure the twelve
months longer lease of immunity to
the Assassin of Stamboul. What is
that compared with the guilt which
we have incurred by our persistent
support of the Turkish misrule, a
support persisted in for generation
after generation, and that not mere
ly by the adoption ofa passive policy
of non.intervention. but by an ac-
tive armed Intervention on behalf of
the Assassin and his predecessors ?

Here is Good News for Men Suffering
From Nervous Debility, Weakened
Powers and Exhausted Vipor.

Weak men suffering from nervous
debility, weakened powers and eX.
hausted vigor, can now take new
hope. Here is something which will
powerfully interest them. 1t is II
fact that until now sufferers have
been debarred from seeking a cure
by the great specialists in those
complaints owing to the cost of tray
el to the large city and the high fees
charged by these eminent physi-
clans.
Here, therefore, is chance for
weak men in our community which
should not be lost. DR.. Greeue, of
35 West lith ST., New York City,
who has the largest practice in tho
world, aud who is without doubt
the most successful specialist in cur
ing this class of diseases offers TO
give free consultation by mail to all
weakened, vigorless and nerveex
hausted men. You have the privi-
lege Of consulting DR.. Greene by let
ter describing your complaint and
he will, after carefully considering
your condition, send you letter
fully explaining all your symptoms,
telling you everything about your
complaint 30 plainly that you will
understand exactly what ails you.
He will also give you his advice,
based upon his vast experience and
wonderful success in treating and
curing such cases, as TO Just what to
do to get cured. All this will cost
you nothing and you can thus have
consultation with the best-known
physician acknowledged most sue
cessful specialist in the world, with
out leaving home and at no expense
whatever. The Doctor is the dis.
coverer of that greatest of medi.
cines, DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, and he has dis
covered many other most valuable
remedies. Write to him now, for
this is tho chance of lifetime to get
cured which you may never have
again.

have women no responsibility in the
up-building and evolution Of this re-
public? Do they owe no duty to
themselves and itf Their present
position is most degrading. The
mothers and daughters of tho ma
ton are roliticai nonentities, peers
only of the mentally unsound, cor
rupt and aliens. Does this enoble
the raceY No. A race cannot rise
to its full stature until motherhood
and fatherhood are equally honored,
and a republic of the people can
never be so in fact, until both sexes
have full expression at its ballot
box. Woman needs to feel her share
of the responsibility of citizenship,
and the republic needs her power.

Woman's Responsibility.

Jean Brooks Greenlesf OF Rochester. ". Y.
That citizens of n republic have
deyolviu2 upon them duties OF great
er moment Than those which adhere
to people of different form of gov
ernment, none will deny. Under
an absolute monarchy, submission
to law only is required, and tho ex-
ercise of restricted franchise, in
addition TO submission, if the moR-
archy be limited.
In true republic, on the other
hand, the governing forceis in the
people themselves the rulers who
they decide will best understand
aud carry ont their wishes, the peo-
pie therefore are responsible, indi-
WduGlly aud collectively, for good or

important then that the franchise
should be exercised in II thoughtful,
intelligent manner; that the well be.
ing Of all classes of citizens should
be considered that the conditions
most favorable for the formative
period of the rising generation
should be closely studied that the
citizens of the future should be fit

responsibility Of such government.
Under these circumstances. can
one portion Of the people decide
what is best for another portion of
the people, who have no voice or
participation in the selection OF
rulers or the formation of the laws
under which they live, and yet have

Sensational Arrest.

About ten years ago a young German
who gave the name of August Kerr
mann arrived in the town of Rock
Springs and purchased a ranch of
$4,000 acres near the town. He
claimed to be from New York. He
was possessed of an abundance OF
money. Hermann made few friends
during his ten years residence ON the
ranch. Monday a German detective,
claiming to represent the German gov
eminent, arrested Hermann! at San
Antonio, Tex. The slatter submitted
quietly and said he would return to
Germany without extradition. Kerr
mann said he was at one time in the
postal service of the German govern
ment and that an irregularity occurred
in his department and that he fed to
this country in order to escape punish
ment. The detective refused to make
any statement of the case.

Train Saved by a Tramp.

A special from Washington, Ind,
says a tramp saved an express train
from being wrecked by dynamite q
short distance east of Mitchell, Ind.
The story is that the tramp, about l
am, found enough dynamite and
nitro glycerine placed on the track to
blow the engine to pieces as soon as it
struck it. Haying no other mode of
signalling he ran to the nearest switch,
tore off the lamp, and returning sig
nailed the approaching train. As he
was doing so he was shot at by the
wreckers, and was found unconscious
by the trainmen. The officers Of the
Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern are
inclined to doubt the tramp's story, as
they have no information OF his being
wounded, nor of his having shown any
dynamite. However, they have or
dered bloodhounds to the scene and
will investigate.

half oil the 176 central sugar houses in
the provinces OF Pinar del Rio, La
Havana and Santa Clara. Cuba, have
been destroyed since the war broke
out. The grain and tobacco crops
have suffered in proportion. When
it is remembered that Spain has spent
about 800. 900. 600 for the little it has
accomplished toward suppressing the
rebellion, the financial cost becomes
almost as appalling as the loss of life.
