RUSSIAN PILGRIMS.
HOW AGED PEASANTS ATTAIN CASTE
IN THEIR VILLAGES.

They Travel Far Away to Pray at |
Distant Shrincs md Monasteries.
The Holy Places They Visit and Mt |
Which They Are Fed md Lodged.
When the SHOWS of winter melt in
Russia and the woods are fragrant
with violets and the ice in great masses
floats down the rivers to the sen the
peasant who is on the threshold of old
age, tired Of long Maction, comes forth
from his Eba and looks abroad.
Strange thoughts have been stirring in
MIN for several months, recollections of
a vow that he once made that, If heav-
en- willed, he would one day worship in
certain monastery and there ycnerate
the relics of its saints. For many n
long year 1t seemed as If this vow
would never be fulfilled, for there was
work to do in the village of which he
could in no way rid himself and still
more pressing was the burden of
numerous family that could not be left.
But now the children have grown up
and can fend for themselves, and the
father and mother are no longer of the
same value to the community as labor
ers. Indeed were they to quit the vii
lagc they would not be much missed.
One way, however, reinnins for them
to redeem their lost position and to en-
title themselves for the rest of their
lives to the respect Of all their neigh
bors 1t is To so on far distant pill
grimage.
Innumerablc are the sacred places in
Russia and out of Russia which the
pilgrims visit. On the sterile tundras
that end in the lonely strand where the
waves OF the White sea fling their foam

CHALLENGER GOES FOR RECORD.
Ten Miles an Hour Over Gun Course
Made by Shamrock III

Atlantic Highlands. n. J., July 3o-Ten
miles an hour for thirty miles, windward
and leeward, was the rafting pace set by
Sir Thomas Lipton's cup challenger in a
race with Shamrock II in the waters of the
international race course off Sandy Hook
lishtship to-day. The challenger's exact
time for thirty miles was 2:59:aO-very near
ly record time for cup event. and on a
par with the Reliance's splendid petform-
ance off Newport in June, when the Ameri-
can yacht covered thirty miles in less than
three hours.
Shamrock HIS windward leg to-day was,
however not beat to windward. A shift
IN the WIND after the start made it possible
for her to fetch from the starting line to
within two miles of the turn in quicker time
than If she had had to beat all the way.
Her reach of 10 miles in 1:09:0S. an aver
age pace of rising thirteen knots, is near
the record for cup race. Despite her splen-
did performance, she beat Shamrock II by
only minute 2 seconds elapsed time. but
the new boat had lost at least two minutes
by the parting of her jbtopsail sheet when
she was four miles from the finish line.
The race was sailed in a splendid wind. ris-
ing from ten knots a the start to fifteen at
the finish. and good part of the time the
yachts were dragging their lee rails through
the froth from under their bows.
. The yachts were preparing for another
brush when Sir Thomas received notice
from the Associated Press by De Forest
wireless that the Pope was dead. Sir Thorn
as Immediately stopped the racing and to-
night the Erin'S ensign is at half-maSt.

CONSTITUTION IS FORMIDABLE.
Again Beats the Yacht Reliance on
Time Allowance


Newport. r. l., July 20.-The Constitution
is rapidly becoming dangerous rival of the
Reliance for the honor of defending the tro-
ply, for the older boat defeated the new
one in to-day's run Of thirty-seven miles.
the third of the New York Yacht Club
cruises from New London. by l minute %
seconds, awaiting herself of her time allow
ance. estimated at about minutes and IL
seconds.
This is the second time on the present
cruise that the Constitution has won from
her rival on time allowance. and while the
victory of the first occasion from Glsncove
to New Haven was due in some measure. to
changeable breezes. the conditions to-day
were as fair for one as for the other.
The two yachts sailed on practically even
terms for nearly ten miles along the South
ern Rhode Island shore. with sheets well
fiattened, and it was not until half the
course had been covered that the Reliance
was out from under the Constitution and
safely in the lead.
The Columbia sailed a lonesome race
dropping behind from the start, and finish
ing more than ten minutes behind the Re
lance.
The run to-day was made in good time in
a strong breeze from the southwest. The
yachts sailed almost the entire distance
from the race rock to Point Judith. sharp
on the starboard tack. the last seven miles
to the finish on broad reach.
