HOPE FOR SHIPWRECKED,
Gale Eubslding asd Those on tho Russio
 May Yet bo Saved.

Marseiles Jan. 9.--A signal message
 was received st o'clock this afternoon
 from the ill-fated Russian mall steam
 CT Russie saying that up to that time
 no one of the nearly 100 passengers
 aboard had perished. The Russie went
 ashore in terrible gale yesterday
 morning. She now lies partly on her
 beam ends with her decks faoing sea-
 ward and the seas which have carried
 away her hatchways filling the holds
 and cabins with water. Every possible
 expedent was tried from the shore 10
 save the sufferers. The coast guards
 men and fishermen manned life boats
 and made several intellectual attempts
 to reach the steamer, which was shift ed by the incessant pounding of the seas trifle nearer the shore. One life boat got half way when it was capsized and it's crew swan ashore and were dragged out of the water by the people ashore, who formed a line with hands joined and waded breast deep into the water in order to seize them.
 A tug approached as near as possible to the wreck and then flew a kite to which life. line was attached in the direction of the Russie, but 1t failed to reach the stranded vessel. Floats werA also sent out from the beach with lines but in no case did they succeed in reaching the steamer. Rockets were fired fruitlessly until the ammunition of the rocket-mortars, which was very meagre, ran out. The tugs which made repeated efforts to approach the Russie were themselves menaced with disaster and obliged to relinquish the attempts
 Later in the afternoon another expe- dient was essayed--that of launching a raft with a life line from a tug laying off the wreck. The result of this at- tempt to reach the endangered crew and passengers of the Russie is not yet known. Those on board were seen to launch floats, but they were all carried out to sea by the current. The most hopeful news was received late this af- ternoon. It was to the effect that tlle gale was subsiding.
 Narrowing scenes were witnessed at the offices of the steamship company here, outside of which were gathered the weeping wives and children and { ther relatives of the crew, who mostly hail from Marseilles. A message post ed at 3:30 p. m. that up to that time all on board the Russie were alive, evoked a pathetic explosion of joy. ''
 A message from the Russie says: The are kept below, but all the crew are at their posts, and the cap tain and officers are lashed to the bridge. The seamen tried to construct several rafts, but as they neared com pletion they were washd away.
 The cruiser Galilee and tug with 'ocket apparatus left Toulon arsenal this evening to attempt to rescue the who are chiefly colonial and soldiers.

Escorted Through tho Buildings.

West Point, N. Y, Jan. 9.-The con-
 gressional committee began its first ses-
 sion here at 2:3o o'clock this afternoon.
 Colonel A. l.. Mills, the superintendent 1 of the academy, was the first witness.

Colonel Mills in reply detailed the rules and regulations gov erning the institution, as well as those prohibiting the hazing or harassing of cadets, and the punishments provided for violat tions according to the degree of the offense Colonel Mills statement was, very similar in it's general charac- ter to that which he made before the military court of inquiry on the clos ing day of it's session here eleven days ago
 May I ask" said Congressman Driggs If all the cadets were supposed to know of all the regulations regarding hazing?"
 Yes, sir, certainly" was the reply.
 The witness then went on to explain the manner in which the reports are made and how the punishments were inflicted by the commandant of cadets.
 ''Is there any appeal from these de- cisions?" asked Colonel Clayton. Yes. If the cadet is dissatisfied he can appeal to the superintendent, and if still unsat- isfied he can appeal to the war depart ment," replied the witness.
 Colonel Mills gave In detail the man. ner in which the records of the cadets are kept at the academy, including their demerits. They also explained how the medical records showed every instance where cadet had applied for or received medical treatment.
 How many cadets, approximately, retire from the academy during the year?" asked Chairman Dick. "The number varies" replied the witness. ''The largest contribution is made after the January examinations when many fourth -classmen withdraw. The num- Der who fall out of any ope class yearly 1essens towards the conclusion of the course"
 What causes these retirements?' hsked the chairman.
 Deficiency in studies, particularly in predomlnates," replied Colonel Mills.
 At this stage of the proceedings Chairman Dick saw that as the com mittee was at first feeling it way he would if it was opportune like the com- mittee to be escorted through the build ings. Arrangements were at once made to escort the visitors through the acad. emy.

Remarkable Power.

dear old lady was taken one day to musical service In Boston church She had heard much about the fine voice of the soprano and was prepared for treat.
 She sat in rapt enjoyment until the service was over and then turned ra- diant face toward her escort, who was young grandson.
 Dear boy" she said, "you've given me great treat. Her voice Is perfect ly beautiful. It made cold chills run all up and down my spine"
 "Its too bad, grandmamma," said the boy, Out she didn't sing today, though she was there. The gentleman next me says she's been suffering from bad cold, and one of the chorus had to sing the solos for her"
 What, dear" said the old lady, look ing momentarily distressed. Then her face cleared, and she patted his arm reassuringly.
 Never you mind," she said. I've can come again some time. But, after all, If she can make me feel that way without singing don't know that it would be wise for me to hear her. Now, would it it?'-Youth's Companion.

While no scientist, l think, will rec ommend less titan seven cubic feet of air each minute for an adult, Dr. Reed gives ten as the smallest amount that will meet the wants of the body. All of this, of course, is not absolutely used, only needed that purity may be secured. The average room-12 by 10 and 8 feet high-even if the room Is empty, will consume only 0G0 cubic feet, or enough to supply air for one person for about two hours. Now, when two or even four persons occupy such room, the doors and windows closed to keep out the supposed poi sonous night air" 1t is not strange that the stench of vitiated air is overpower- ing to one who enters the room after breathing tie pure air of heaven, such as the good Father intended for use

 'T suppose that the American people and the Russians are the only western races that really keep warm in winter
 Still those who dwell in other countries admit that they have the same ideal by their lnetii ,ient effort @ attain to it." writes Anna N. Denjam'u in Alnslee's. "The Japanese winter Is most trying on account of it's continual dampness, but the Japanese are content to remain cold. They make almost no effort to overcome 1t. The old 'bushido' (chval- rous) idea of the 'samurai' (knightsl was that it was effeminate to feel cold. and such is their severe training that they do not really feel it as we do. The wearing of some extra 'kimonos' and the use of q 'hibachi,' or brazier, in which are few tiny sticks of lighted charcoal, are the only concessions to winter weather. With the 'hibachi' they never pretend to heat more than their finger tips, which they hold over the coals. It is used when the house is entirely open.

When took my first jinrikisha ride through the streets of Nagasaki, 1 forgot my own sufferings in my sym pathy for this unhappy nation, which oc misery from it. The coolies wear thin blue cotton clothes and are always pad ding through the mud. The storekcep- CTS sit out in their open booths, and the women go bareheaded about the streets. In the houses of the rich the still cold behind the closed panels is often mora intense than that outside in the sun- shine, where the air is stirring. The schools and public buildings arc equal ly frigid.
 "It seemed to me that the only warm things in Japan were the babies, who looked like bundles of gayly colo-cd crape. their round heads covered by knit caps. They slumber peacefully tucked down their mothers backs The to keep warm in winter is not entirely modern improvement though it goes with western civilization. The Koreans do it very thoroughly, the Chi nese to certain extent. The Japanese. as a race, continue to scorn 1t as they always have done. and this is merely one of hundred examples which prove that the Japanese are still true to their traditions in their daily life and as yet little affected in the ordering of their homes by the ideas adopted from the west"
