STANDING OF RUSSIA.
Whatever the Czar May Be. Russia's
 Supremacy Is Secure.

Whatever the Czar May He, Russfn,a
 Supremacy Is Secure.
 All that Russia requires is a far-sight- ed, heroic czar, who, comprehending the needs of to-day, as Peter the Great did those of 200 years ago, shall com plete the work begun by him, commit Russia irreyocably to occidentalism and liberalism, and thus earn for her the sympathy and respect, instead of the jealousy and hatred, of other nations. Should such czar arise, it would be wisdom on the part of Europe to al- low Russia to gratify her two legiti- mate ambitions, in the pursuit of which she has been hitherto thwarted, es- pecially by Great Britain. These ann bitions are: First, to complete the sub- jugation of the barbarous Tartars by annexation of Turkey to her do- m1nions, and, second, to pos sess ice-free ports for the de- Yelopment of a navy and of merchant shipping. While as despotic, she ought to be thwarted in every way, as lib- eral, she ought to enjoy the rights of liberal nations, and be permitted to have her own way in Turkey and China, just as England has had hers in Egypt and India. A liberal Russia, with her long, cherished ambitions once satisfied, would be not only the peace keeper of Europe, but also one of it's most potent civilizing influences; equaling. perhaps surpassing-so gifted is her people the other nations in culture, human ity and righteousness. Rnt whether Russia is to be blest with liberal ear or not there is no reason to fear her supremacy. If she remains eoarse1y despotie, it cannot last; if she become liberal, it can only be blessing.- Forum.

kind for him. He knows as well as l do why am so certain that will win if we come together again-just as he knows who was the better man when a chance blow disabled me long enough to make him the champion pugilist of the world.
 Until that moment every fair-minded man at the ringside knew that 1 had the best of it all the way through. was the one who did all the leading and who forced the pace throughout the fight. He was the whipped man when he struck that chance blow, and no one was more surprised than he when I suddenly dropped on one knee, gasping for the breath which did not come back to me until the ten fatefui seconds had been counted off by the referee. The real facts of the fight show why I am certain that l would pYove the winner in a second battle.

A VISITORS IMPRESSION.

Number of Street Planes Regarded as
 Washington's Characteristic.
 Do you know what strikes me as a strong characteristic of Washington ?" said a recent visitor to the capital to a Star reporter. The latter said that probably the number of bicycles in use here had struck the visitor forcibly, but this was not it.
 Tt is the number of street pianos" was the answer 'I have travelled pretty extensively throughout the coun- try, but I never saw so many of the pianos eentered, may say, in one place. There are plenty of them in New York, but they are found down on the Bowery chiefly, and in many instances in the tenement districts, though where the owners of the pianos manage to collect enough there to keep body and soul together I cannot imagine. The photo graphic reproductions of children danc- ing on the New York sidewalks to the music of the pianos can be seen in the loriginal at any time.
 "Here in Washington, it seems to me, there are far more of the Italians and their perambulating music machines, according to the population of the city, than in any other. 1 believe it would be possible here. if one wanted. to indulge in such an extraordinary and, I may say, inexplieable task, to listen to the piano music all day long,
 II started out from my hotel one morning, after eating, to the tune of Rosie O'Grady,' and left to that of There's Hot Time in the Old Town The air could still be distinguished as l walked down the street, when 1 turned the corner and ran straight into the arms of The Girl Named Warner'-or the song of the girl of that name which was being ground out at the curb.
 After tramping down the street to the air of Sousa's Stars and Stripes For ever march, I stopped in a drug store to buy some soda. As l was quaffing if along came another piano, stopped, and I poured the liquid down my throat to the air of My Girls High Born Lady I wended my way down the street to bne tune or The Selectl0n or 'OaVaI= leria Rusticana'
 T am not certain, but think we in- spected the post office and interior de- partments to the tune of All Coons Look Alike to Me, went through the pension office with Take Back Your Gold aiming in our ears from the out side, and walked into the white house as a piano regaled us with the strains of Just Tell Them That You Saw Me played on the Pennsylvania avenue pavement outside.
 My recollection of Washington will be iangle of popular tunes, big build ings and kinetoscopic array of street pianos passing before the eyes. Wash ington Star.

She Uses the Church as a Stepping
 Stone to Society
 She is the one who is most conspicu- ous in speech and sometimes in work, but in her heart her religion is simply means to very earthly end. She is prominent in the Sunday school be- cause she thinks she can in that way be- come acquainted with some people she would like to know She is ever ready to get up and express her creed at the prayer meeting, because she thinks that her ability will be recognized. She rustles into her pew, kneels for a long time and then settles herself com fortably-to look at the congregation. She considers it respectable to go to church. Beyond that she gives no thought. She forgets that, unless re- Ggion is of the heart, it is of no value. She has never understood that it is not the loud prayer nor the wordy prayer which makes an impression on God, but that it is the sincere cry from the soul appealing to Him to which He listens The religious sham can usually give you description of all the costumes worn by ''her set' in church. She can tell you of the amount of money put in by each member as the plate is passed along. She goes to church to observe the outward, visible sign, and never in any way troubles herself about the inward. spiritual grace-Ruth Ash more, in Ladies' Home Journal.

The fact that am willing, if Robert Fitzimmons will again enter the ring with me, to give him $15,Ooo, whether he wins or loses. has been the subject of much comment among persons in terested in sporting matters throughout the country; and it has caused consid- erable curiosity as to my reasons for this feeling of absolute certainty that l will prove the victor should we meet

Inc best book of etiquette is that great one, the best society. If you feel awkward or uncertain watch those peo- pie whose manners show that they are conversant with all that is best. In initiating them you will not be apt to make mistakes. The average American girl is quick at recognizing her mis- takes aad seldom repeats one after she realizes her error.

appalling accident occurred during the
morning in the shell loading depart

instant's warning six human beings
lost their lives by an explosion and an
other victim died soon afterward at the
hospital. A score of others were more
or less seriously injured, but no further
fatalities are anticipated. More. than
$50 men and women are employed in
the loading department. and that more
fatalities did not result from thessxplo.

STORIES CORROBORATED.

Days of 40 in California n Mere Side Show
to the Klondyke Excitement.
New YORK, July 2.-One of the
most significant utterances in corrobor.
alton Of the stories Of immense gold
finds in the Northwest territory, is
found in letter received in this city
from Captain Francis futile, COM
1nander of the revenue cutter Bear, who
was at the time of writing at St.
Michaels on the Yukon river. The
letter was mailed July /. Captain Tut
tie says:
! 1.-THE days Of 40 in California were a
mere side show compared with the ex-
element in the Yukon country. As I
write, st. Michaels is full of miners
awaiting an opportunity to get down to
Puget Sound and to California. Nearly
every other man of them has $4,000
worth of dust, and there is not a man
here with less than $4,000. The latter
are referred to as "poor fellows"
Captain Tuttle adds that he cannot
afford to lay long in St. Michaels, or
his whole crew will become daft.
