Russian Famine Continues.

The hope that the dire famine pre-
vailing in seven or eight provinces OF
Russia, with a population of upwards
of 100000, would be ameliorated by
the new crops within a couple OF
months, are now dashed TO the ground,
as it is officially admitted the harvest
is practically a failure. Owing to the
protracted drought, the crops have
been scorched, and in large areas in
the south they are not worth the cost
of reaping, while the cold in the north
ern provinces has been almost equally
damaging. To add to the misery of
the situation there is no hay, and few
vegetables. and the beet root, the prin-
cipal crop in the province of Kieff, has
been practically ruined. The whole sit
uation promises to end in appalling dis
aster.
Church circles have been somewhat
