OF RUSSIAN
RULE.
One Man in Every Twelve on
Earth Is the Cars
Subject.

Speaking of Russia the other day,
Lord Salisbury spoke of it as "the ma
ton that in material respects is the
most powerful nation on EARTH"
Russia, with its enormous forests,
its vast steppes and its huge rivers, is
almost a world in itself. Extending
over 1854, 100 square miles, or one-sev-
enth of the entire land surface of the
globe, it is but 100000 miles less than
the whole extent of our scattered pos
sessions, on which we boast the sun
never sets.
"Its water surface alone measures
293,0I8 square miles, or enough to make
an immense sea in which our little
England could be placed six times over
and still have room for more.
ITO every square mile of territory
there are fifteen human beings who
owe allegiance to the car, or grand
total of nearly 100000. In fact,
one human being out of every twelve
on earth is ruled by the car. Its fight
Ing men number over 100000. It
can put Q fully equipped army into the
field of 1,s66ooo combatants apd back
it up with another almost ss we'll ae-
eoutered of 1, 100, 600 men, total num-
Der of hrst-class fighting men of over
100000, with 497 AIS horses and 1895
heavy guns.
Let the whole of this immense body
of regular troops be overcome and
there will even then be the reserve to
reckon with, force estimated at fully
100000
"The difficulties of mobilization
would, no doubt, be very great, but
these grow less every year. Russia
now has 1861 miles of railway owned
by the state and S,oTa miles worked by
private companies, while in course of
construction there are nearly 5000
miles more.
"ln addition to Its forces on land
Russia has navy which, although by
no means the finest in the world, will
one day have to be reckoned with seri-
ously. 1t is divided into four fleets,
and its total consists of twenty-three
battle ships, fourteen coast defense
vessels, sixteen cruisers, twenty-eight
gun-boats and ninety-six torpedo
boats, manned by 1859 officers, 1876
engineers and $4,000 seamen.
"Then it has a mercantile marine
consisting of 522 steamers and 2,135
sailing vessels, while on its rivers there
is a tlotilla of over 10000 vessels of all
descriptions, with crews totalling co.
$50 men. All these would be available
In case of war.
Moreover, Russia is not dependent.
like we are, on outside sources of food.
Pasturing on its vast plains are to be
found in European Russia alone "a
Cos. 26o head of cattle, 44,465, 45O sleep
and 9,243,00O pigs, while under crops
there are no fewer than 1905, SOY, $50
acFes of arable land. After feeding
Its vast population it was last year
able to export abroad over 50O,OOO,ooo
quarters of cereal crops"

THREE DELIVERIES DAILY.

Beginning July lst the business portion of this city will have three mail deliveries daily. This fact was made known through these columns several months ago, but now it is fully assured. The merchants re- quested MT. Fred c. Furth, the chief clerk at the postoffice, to make the request of the postmaster general After much corresponding he suc- ceeded in his efforts It might also be mentioned here that another postmaD will be put on in the East End Of the city o1 July 1st. This will enable the residents of that part of town to get their mail more prompt and much earlier than here tofore. Mir. Furth deserves much praise for his successful efforts.

HON. J. II. HINEMON WILL NOT BE PRESIDENT OF
 GALLOWAY.
PINE BLUFF REJOICES.
He Will Remain as Superintendent of the Public Schools
 Here.

Prof. J. H. Hinemon will not go to Searcy to take charge of Gallo way College. At meeting of the trustees of that institution Wednes- day Mr, Hlnemon tendered his resignation as president and will retain his position as Superintend- ent of the public schools of this city.
 The trustees announced that MT. Hinemon's physicians had advised him that he is physically unable to stand the work that would devolve upon him as president of Galloway College and it is for that reason that his resignation was accepted.
 At the same meeting it was stated that pr, 0. 0. Golden had again consented to accept the presidency and he was immediately reelected to the position.
 Key. J. R. Cason also resigned the position of Financial Agent. After Rev. Gason's resignation it was decided to abolish the office of financial agent entirely.
 The news of MT. Hinemon's resig- nation and that he would remain in Pine Bluff will doubtless be received with much rejoicing throughout the city. He has made the Pine Bluff public schools the most complete system of their kind in the South and the work of all grades have inn proved wonderfully since he assum- ed charge. MT. Hinemon is uni versally loved and esteemed by Pine Bluffs community and Pine Bluff is to be congratulated upon keeping such an excellent gentleman and able instructor within her bounds.

others of Pine Bluffs best whise citizens, were present with their wholesome advice and money to aid them in thelr noble effort. Some of US never can forget the advice given by Dr. Jackson aud these white brethren.
 1 believe if our best white citizens could spare time enough to come of tener among our poor people with their advice, there would be no ne. gro problem. There would be no lynchings. The old time negroe be- fore the war were often instructed by a christian master, and today wherever wemeet them they impress us with their kindness and polite ness. But the colored people of to day have their own instructors, many of whom have little or no nor al training. We have but few Jack sons, Robinsons and Moselys.
 I wish that Rev. Daniel could visit every eolored church in Pine Bluff, doirg missionary work, and it would not be long before marked changes could be seen among our colored people for good. Real christian worship would supplant friyolity and indifference so often manifested in our houses of worship. Property would not lose it's value on account { of negro church being near it. Quietness in time of preaching 2 would take the place of the loud shouts and stamping so often heard in our churches In my daily rounds among the colored people l hear nothing.but praise for the advice giv- en by Rev. Daniel. Dr. Jackson and the white brethren who addressed St. Paul's congregation on the above occasion.
 I cannot close this subject without mentioning the material and fnan- cial aid many of the trustees have rendered in this great work. Prof. J. c. Corbin, Prof. M. R. Perry, At torney J. F. Jones, Cato Marshall, Stephen Clark and Deacon Scott de serve the commendation of the col ored people for the creditable and business-like way iu which they have accomplished so much.
 The choir led by and under the training of Prof. Corbin, is the best among the colored people in the city. The solos rendered by Misses Carutbers and Brown were received with much enthusiasm.

GOOD GYMNASIUM MAN.

The members and hnaLcia! sup porters of the local Y M. c A. are greatly gratided and encouraged by the acceptance of thelr call to the general secretaryship of s 5. Dix CD, until recently general secretary of the Pine Bluff Association. Since the departure of Secretary Thomas Johnson, early ia March, the local directory have been on the lookout for suitable man to take charge of the work here, a man who would make a good general secretary and physical director combined They placed their needs and interests with the international committee ? New York, all the time knowing of the efficient and popular work of MT. Dixon at Pine Bluff and wishing that they might secure him for the local field, but not desiring to take any official action that might be construed by the friends at the Bluff City as an effort to get their man away from them.
 As soon, therefore, as the Little Rock directors received official in- formation from the international committee that Dixon had resigned and Mas considering calls to other fields they lost no time in a9 earnest endeavor to secure hia. Mir. Dixon has aceeptedkand hes Wft- arrive in the city some time today, entering upon his duties at once.
 Dixon is without douot one of the bes gymnasium men in the country. He has magnificent physique, yet wit al is modest and unassuming. As an organizer of pure athletes he excells, and it will be rememb cred that the Pine Bluff Y. M. c. A. base ball club, under his leadership, captured the silver cup at the bridge celebration seueral years ago, win hing the amateur trophy from the Philadelphia club by score of IT to 0. He has a good knowledge of medicine and anatomy which enables him to make careful tests and exam nations, very necessary to those entering upon course of regular gymnas tic exercise. His manner IS engaging and popular. He IS an earnest student of the Bible and possesses a strong Christian charac- ter, which eminently fits him for the peculiar and delicate duties of the general secretaryship. He is unmarried, another thing in his favor, according to some, who be-

Thursdays Arkansas Gazette has the following to say of Prof. Hine- mon: Those who know the zeal and spirit which Prof Hlnemon throws into anything be undertakes and who know, too, that his closest friends have felt for several years that he was taxing his strength too heavily, will feel that that in tbis matter be has been impelled wholly by a sense of duty to himself, his family and Galloway College and that his action has been eminently wise.
 As soon as his work at Pine Bluff closes he will leave for California and spend the summer recuperating in the West.
