Russia and the Firms.

The Russian government has pro-
mulgated four laws which put an end
to the constitutional privileges hith-
erto enjoyed by the Firms. The first
law puts the Finnish senate under the
direct supervision of the governor
general, and gives to him the right
Of veto over all resolutions of the
senate. The second empowers the
governor general and the performed"
senate summarily to dismiss any adj
minis trative official who has not been
appointed directly by the car The
third authorizes the judicial depart
ment of the senate, which. under the
first law, is the tool of the governor
general, to dismiss judges at its pleas
ure The fourth provides that no Off
cial shall be brought to trial on any
charge without the consent of his SUI
periors. This law is made retroact-
i've in order to free the police from
possibility for acts already com
mitted. The effect of these enact
ments is to put the people wholly at
the mercy of the Russian administra-
tive otlicials.-YOuth's Companion.

The Princess Agnes Salem-Salem, now
| 0903) residing in Carlsruhe BADEN in
Germany, was born in Swanton, VT,
December %, 1914, her maiden name
being Agnes Elizebeth Winona Leclcrcq.
She is of the eighth generation in descent
from Thomas Joy of Boston, who came
to this country about 1886. He was
man of note, who built the first town
house in Boston on the site of the old
State house, in 1861, from his own
! designs. The princess's grandfather,
Micah JOY, served in the Revolutionary
war and his father in the French and
/ Indian war. She herself has had perhaps
a more eventful life than her ancestors.
Going to Washington, a girl of II years
in 1861, to be with sister the wife of
, Captain Edmund johnson, she made the
acquaintance of Prince Felix Salem
Salem, who had served with honor in the
armies of Prussia and Austria and came
/ to America in 1861, and entered the
Z Union army as colonel. She married
him in August, 1862, and from that time
shared with him in the campaigns of the
! of the Civil war and at the close of the
war she went with him to Mexico. After
the close of the war there and the death
of MsXimillian he returned to Europe
and took part in the Franco Prussian
war of 1870, in one of the battles of which
Chat of Gravelotte) he was killed. The
princess was the inseparable companion
of her husband throughout his varied
and romantic career. In the Civil war
she was picturesque figure in the social
! life of Washington and of the army. her
unfaiing cheerfulness, warm sympathy
and womanly ministries in the hospitals
endearing her to the Union soldiers. 1t
was largely due to her popularity and in
fluence that the military talents of her
foreign born husband received the Official
recognition and reward which they
merited.

Wild sheep depend for greatest pro-
lection on their climbing capabilities.
They travel where no man can follow,
and often in climbing use their knees
instead OF their forehoofs. Their first
instinct at the approach of any enemy
is to start for the mountain top. aiming
if possible to get above and keep above
the enemy. Wolves. Wolver-
ines and eagles arc their most common
enemies, and the lambs suffer extern
siVelN from these. Wolves are capa BILE
of taking down grown animals but in
the summer hunger seldom induces
them to make the struggle. and in win
ter they prefer lower attitudes, There
are many stories told of the lordly ram
doing battle with wolves. which are
on par with the story of leaping from
dizzy heights. The old rams are cum
ming, and in this lies their creates
safety. They are perfectly at home
on rocky lodges, where the wolf is not,
and if they can gain such position
they will, with one charge, hurl the
wolf to the rocks below.-Outing.

CHEERFUL MOOD
Murderer Does Not Rea-

His Crime.
mot LOCKED IN CELL.
Slayer of Ella Mundt Confined in
Hospital Ward at County
Jail...RefuSeS to Talk.
NOT LOCKED IN CELL.

Ed Spencer was moved from the
Sacred Heart hospital to the county
jail yesterday afternoon and this
morning is comfortably settled in his
new quarters. He doesn't appear to
realize the enormity of his crime in
the least and appears to be in the
very best of spirits.
Spencer is not yet in condition to
be confined to a cell and he Is now
kept in the hospital ward of the coun-
ty Jail, where he will remain until
he is considered stronger. He will
then be removed to a cell, where he
can be watched better.
Spencers half-brother w. S. Ma
son, came in from Phoenix, B. c., this
morning and will remain with the
accused man for a couple days. The
murderer takes considerable interest
in the affairs of the world and reads
the newspapers daily. He still re-
fuses to have any conversation re-
garding the shooting by him of Ella
Mundt, the servant girl, because she
had refused to return the love he
proffered.
The prisoner is a very young man
to be charged with such a crime, be-
ing scarcely of age. During the time
he has been in Spokane he followed
the occupation of a waiter and had
just been discharged from his posi-
ton at Davenport's restaurant when
the affair happened.

recent report of the British war Of
flee which details the cost of main
tanning the army OF the united king
dom.
Comparative figures for the past 10
years show the following condition of
affairs. In 1892 the army estimate
was sS9,0l5,000. During the decade
II increased until. in 1902, It was
STAG, $50, 600, or s67.5S5. 600 above the
1892 estimate. In the meantime the
number OF men had Increased from
$4,000 to 100000. The estimate show
ed an increase OF "a per cent and the
armed force 40 per cent. In 1892 the
per capita cost was s2.31; in 1902 it
was $3.50.
These staggering figures are one
OF the greatest stumbling blocks to
the plan of War Secretary Frederick,
who thinks the British army should
be almost doubled in size to make II
perfectly efficient land force and to
make 1t the necessary complement to
