A NOTED RUSSIAN EXILE
FOR LIBERTY TO USE PEN

ST. PETERSBURG, July 2s.-Peter Won
Struve, the noted Marxist, who went
abroad in 1901, when forbidden to live in
St. Petersburg, has begun the publication
in Stuttgart Of a Russian periodical IN
der the title "Oswobozhdenie" (Emancipa-
tion) In his prospectus Won Strive pro-
claims the aim of his paper to be emanci-
patton of the Russian people from police
oppression, and the attainment OF indt-
vidual and social liberty. In his prospec-
kus he says:
1.-THE social reaction which followed the
murder of Alexander II. has completely
disappeared and the political reaction is
constantly being strengthened. The gov
eminent Is making its last desperate ef-
forts to perpetuate an antiquated order Of
things.
1--WE shall defend the necessity of grant
ing to all classes equal rights to untram-
meled development and we insist upon an
immediate change.
Emancipation will not be the work of
one class, party or doctrine. We shall
illumine all sides Of Russian life; the 'in-
telligence' especially Of the youths in
school, the position OF the organs Of local
self government and Of the press and the
struggle for religious liberty. We shall
criticise the acts of the government, thus
supplementing the oppressed press In Rus
STA.
1--WE shall show that economic improves
ment can come only through participation
OF the people in the government by cleo
toral representation, and shall expose the
exploitation OF the peasantry by high pro-
tective duties and excessive taxation.
I'VE shall not be moderate. Let eman-
cipation be openly proclaimed by the COM
mon action Of revolutionists and moder-
ates. The oppressors Of the people cannot
meet such a challenge squarely given"
The journal will be circulated in Russia
by sealed letter post. It recalls the ia
nous Kolokol (belD Of Herzen, which
was the organ of emancipation during the
early years OF Alexander Ills reign. II
found its way regularly on to the desk OF
the then emperor, and was read by him
eagerly, though strictly forbidden circula-
ton in Russia. The influence of this Jour-
nal with Alexander II. was at one time
very great.

Mlstook the Parrot For Bind.


At a little dinner the other night a
wager was laid that Marshall p. Wilder,
the entertainer. could not tell fifty parrot
stories in succession. He did 1t without
turning a feather, and so many of them
were new that the man who came away
and told about It could remember only
one.
It was Of the parrot which escaped
through window and perched in tree.
The owners EFFORTS to capture 1t, even
with a butterfly net. were in vain. He
stood at the bottom Of the tree swearing
at the bird, when an Irishman came along.
what is the matter?" demanded Pat -
81 can't catch that darned bird" said
the man. "and here is dollar for the
man who can"
II am the man." cried pat" and he
started up the tree.
AS he climbed from branch to branch
the parrot did the same. Finally they
neared the top, and the branches began
to wabble dangerously. The parrot was
moved TO speech.
What the devil do you want?' it de-
manded.

DEMONOF WAR

OF NO USE
SECRET EXPLOSIVE INVENTION
CAN PENETRATE STRONGEST
BATTLESHIP NOW AFL0AT
ON THE SEAS.

NEW YORK, July 30.-s4 new time fuse,
for use on armor-piercing shells loaded
with a recently discovered secret explos-
i've Of great power, has been invented by
war department ordinance experts and
WILL according to a New York American
dispatch from washington, revolutionize
foreign warship building.
Test OF the explosive and fuse have
been made, and so long as the United
States government holds the secret, for
eign battleships either must double their
steel walls or be as wooden frigates
against the new destroyer
General Crozier, chief OF ordinance, is
quoted as having said that test of the
new explosive has been conducted with
eminent success at the Sandy Hook prov
ing grounds, that the shell carried its con-
tents through the thtckets armor, and
that the fuse lived long enough to have
exploded on the interior OF a ship of
war.
The greatest penetration secured was
that OF a shell fired from 12-inch gun.
It pierced fourteen inch Krupp armor be-
fore defamation. The heaviest shield now In
use is said to be only II inches thick.

Moors Indifferent TO LIE,

OF all Oriental races there are none
more callous and Indifferent to human
life than the Moors. A traveller who has
recently returned from Morocco related
the following anecdote in proof of this
fact. The grandfather of the present sul-
tan was one day boating on the lake in
the garders of the palace. the, boat, by
the way, being a small steam launch CIV
en- him by Queen Victoria. BY some acct
dent the vessed capsized and the sultan
and two OF his wives, by whom he was
accompanied, were thrown into the water,
says the Family Herald. A soldier on
guard in part Of the palace out of view
heard the cries and. running up, sprang
into the water and rescued the sultan
favorite wife, the ruler himself scram-
bling out unaided. Later in the day the
soldier was sent for and presented him
self joyfuIly before his monarch, con-
WINGED that his reward would be great.
you are the soldier who rescued the
light Of my eyes7' quoth the sultan. The
soldier bowed. Ibid you dare to look at
her7'' 81 did, your highness," replied the
soldier, taken OF his guard. The sultan
turned to an officer. murrnured few
words and a moment later the soldier

NEW YORK. July 3O.-The cotton mar

ket would present a stronger attitude to-

HAYNES ARRESTED
FOR RAISING MONEY

Because he had two s. bills In his pocket
that had been artistically changed to
twenties, and because he wanted to pay
for shave and q hair cut out Of one
OF these. @. T. Haynes, a Hall county
man, who lives near Gainesville Is now
a prisoner on the top floor of the Tower,
awaiting trial in the United States court
on the charge OF violating two sections Of
the United States code. one for changing
and the other for attempting to pass the
changed money.
II was about $50 Monday morning
that Haynes went into the Reading Room
barber shop at Is Marietta street and got
hair cut and shave. When the job was
complete, he nonchantly pulled out
twenty dollar bill The barber was
amazed. He could not change It, OF
course, and went into Folsom's restau-
rant for that purpose, Haynes accom-
pauying him. The cashier there detected
the fact that the bill had once been only
a two. He told Haynes 1t was no good,
but the latter insisted 1t was. The two
then went to the Neal Loan and Banking
company 70 get the opinion of an expert
and in the meanwhile Policemen Dobbins
and Turner had been put next. The bank
people said the bill was a two all right,
though 1t looked a twenty on fits face.
Haynes hooted at the idea and produced
another twenty. That likewise was pro-
nounced to be q two and the policemen
then got IN the game. taking Haynes in
charge.
He was turned over to a United States
officer, who kept him at the depot for a
long time, TO try and catch man sup
posed to be his partner. The other fell
low turned up all right, but was not ar
rested as Il was not shown he had had
anything TO DO with the money. Haynes
was taken before United States Commits
sioner Walter Colquitt and sent to the
Tower in default OF q 500 bond, which
that official fixed.
From Haynes standpoint It Is a sad.
sad story that ne has to tell in explain
ing the matter. A plain. hard working
young fellow from near Gainesville he
has been to Oklahoma, working for the
past four months. He was coming home.
He wanted to fix up before. reaching
Gainesville and stopped for shave and q
hair cut here. The two twenties and a
little change represent his savings for the
last four months, he says, minus his rail-
road fare homo. He says the money was
paid him by the man for whom he worked
i'm Oklahoma He claims to have worked
hard for the money and thinks II pretty
tough to get arrested now for trying to
spend IT. He has furnished the name and
address Of the party from whom he
claims 70 have got the money and 1t may
be that a big ewfndling scheme will be
revealed by the investigation the United
States secret service men intend to start
Haynes has q good, honest face and ap-
pears to be telling the truth about the
matter. II so, q plan for sw1ndling Uncle
Sam may be unearthed in Oklahoma
Meanwhile, however, Haynes has not
gotten home and is held in jail. He has
written to his relatives near Gainesville
and says he expects to have bond made
soon.
