In the happy land of the great
White Car the profession of journal
ism is never a dull one for those who
do not agree with the government.
The entire editorial staff of the Shisn
newspaper is now in jail, and dis
patches from St Petersburg say that
that is not the only Russian journal
whose publication is suspended from
the fact that it's editorial staff has

The recent outbreak Of the students
has caused the greatest uneasiness TO
the officials in the Russian capital,
and. for that matter, to the officials
throughout the empire, because OF its
revival of nihiliSm. So alarmed have
the authorities become that domici-
liary visits are now nightly paid by
the police to the homes of even the
highest officials. The most dangerous
symptom is the sullen attitude of the
working classes. who are known TIC

general lowness." There was moth
ing much the matter with her, but
she was pale and listless, and did not
care about doing anything, even eat
ing.
The doctor, after due consultation,
prescribed for her a glass of claret
three times day with her meals. The
mother was somewhat deaf, but ap-
parently heard all he said, and bore
off her daughter, determined to carry
out the prescription to the letter.
In t~o weeks she was back with the
girl, who was rosy checked, smiling
and the picture of health.
The doctor naturally congratulated
himself on his skill, and said cordial
ly: 81 am glad to see your daughter
so much better"
Thanks to you, DOCTOR" exclaimed
the grateful mother. "She has had
just just what you ordered. She has
eaten carrots three times day and
sometimes oftener-and once or twice
she had them uncooked; and nov

man than Klegils. He has made him
self popular with the people by his
protest against the harsh methods
melted out to the students by Bogole-
poff, the former minister of education
and against the compulsory enlist
ment of the students in the army.
General Kouropatkin, now minister OF
war, makes a speciality of Asiatic
warfare, and is an able and autocrat1c
soldier. who believes that to spare
the knout is to spoil the subject. Van
offsky, the foreign minister of war,
now the minister of education, is a
stern man, whose speciality is organi-
cation. He believes in shooting stu
dents who object to serving certain
allotted time IN the army, and is APP
plying military methods to the re-
organization of the Russian school
system.
From all these things some idea can
be formed of what Russia really is and
what the Russianization of Europe
would mean.

autumn, when the figured velvet
drawing-room suite was new, he sat
on one chair, she on another, and
talked-simply talked. During the
winter they burned papa's gas, and
sat side by side on the lounge ex-
changing condolences. When spring
came they used the same chair and
whispered; but there was never a
whisper of that one question she was
so longing to hear. Now, summertime

All sorts of crimes are rampant. In
St. Petersburg a man has been going
about the streets stabbing young girls.
Recently he killed five girls between
the ages of seven and fifteen in one
day. All Russia is honeycombed with
strange religious sects-An idea of the
intelligence of the Russian peasant
may be gathered from the account
which came from St. Petersburg the

General Klegils belongs to Scot
fish family that settled in Riga. The
original name was Clayhills, but, as
the family became Russianized, the
name suffered the same fate and be-

they were infants he took the keenest
