Whv The Opera Was short.

The management of the Lyric Opera
states that the brevity of the
performance of La Belle Helene was
due to the fact that the lines of the
opera had to be cut to exclude the vul-

long enough if the original text had
been closely followed, but in that case
the production would have been an
offence to decent public sentiment

Very Raw Recruits.

The life of the Russian soldier is a
hard one, and the bondage of compul-
sorry service weighs cruelty upon the
peasants throughout the Cars domin-
ions. Attempts to escape enlistment
are made continually. but the simple
minded peasant is no match for the
alert recruiting officer.
At Il recruiting station in eastern
Russia n peasant pleaded deafness and
would not answer any question put to
him.
You can so home," said the exam
lining surgeon in a very low voice, and
the man mt once started for the door.
The shout of the surgeon brought him

There is q story Of IN cnvious tailor

better off than himself. Both men went
to pay their rent on the same day, says
the Youths Companion.

But who would be willing t part

1uent and very destructive. One is that
the population is so enormous as to re-
qnire nearly all the food produced i'll the
country even in the best of crop years.
The other is that the monsoons from the
Indian ocean whic' bring the rain are

or are inadequate the irrigation bitches

people are in peril.
Ten million people persisted in the fam

that greatest of historic famincs twenty
five seasons of food scarcity have come
to Il or another po"t of the peninsula
and the loss of life in about half of these
calamities has been n million or more.
"A million died in the famine of 1856. The
region affected in 1868 was almost idcnti-
cal with that which is now suffering, and
the deaths in that terrible fall and Win
ter numbered over 100000. The fam
inc of 1877 carried off about the same
number of victims, and while people were
dying by tens Of thousands IL day, CAL

lands, the famine regions being unable
to pay the high price demanded for the
grain. Governmental efforts on a large
scale to relieve such distress as this are
proofs of advancing civilization.
