Russian Peasants Did Not Understand
pniita Conductor

Russian Peasants Did Not Understand
4 Polite Conductor.
An Englishman travelling in Russia
furnishes the following incidents to a
London paper-an incident which he
personally Witnessed and which he
says shows better than volumes Of
description the customs and social
conditions OF Russian peasants: AT
a railway station the train is on the
point Of starting. As usual in Russia
the bell rings three times before de-
partures to warn the passengers to
take their seats. At the first ring
the chief conductor. seeing on the
platform group Of peasants standing
humbly and cautiously together. says
very politely 10 them: Gentlemen,
gthe first signal is given; please take
your places"
One Of the peasants, turning to his
comrades, says: "Dimitri, Ivan, Ste
ven, do you hear? The master tells
us to enter the train" "Oh, you stu
pid.v says another Are YOU a gen
tleman7 You heard him say gentle
men He invited the gentry" There
IS a second ring Of the bell. The con
ductor calls, hurriediy and angrily:
Please, gentlemen, take your seats;
you hear the second signal"
The same peasant says to the
others: 1T IS for US. We must take
out seats. The train will start. you
asst" saws his companion DO YOU
think you are called a gentleman?
We're you ever a gentleman The
third ring Of the bell is heard. The
conductor, losing nis temper and
hustling the peasants forward cries,
"Idiotsl Pigsl Beasts Do you hear
or not2 Be OF and take your seatsl"
That Is for us, say the peasants.
"Dimitri, Ivan. hurry up. We must
take our seats"

def Indian Inspector J George

annual tax imposed on each neao
Of live stock imported within ne

tax is based on a tribal law Of The

ruling made by the secretary Of the
interior, and upheld by the court
before whom it was taken by be
cattlemen resisting payment.
The tax, Is cents a year Oh eacl
head Of cattle became effective last
june, and as many of the cattle
men already had their cattle on
pasture it was decided to give them |
notice that the tax was due. Ma
ny of them either refused to payl
and contested the legality Of such |
a tax or paid what the interior de-
partment considered but small /
per cent of that due
On account Of the trouble ex-

TO collect the tax this year before
the cattle are brought in, and it
has also been ordered that the man

remittance IS made the cattle when
discovered will be driven outside 1

SATURDAY sERM0NETTEs


(By A. Layman
The cause Of religion has suf-
erred more from its friends than
its enemies. 1t has suffered from
the influence of men who make it a
cloak for base aud wicked charac-
ters; from men who profess it OUT
wardIy but deny it by their lives.
Uncritical minds, discerning this
discrepancy between profession and
| practice, condemn the cause rather
than fhe hypoeritical adherent to
it. Your average man will not
stop 10 examine the merits Of alb
stract doctrines; he judges the
merits of the doctrines By their ef-
fects upon the lives Of the men he
knows.
OF course, it is an unjust test for
religion. If you would test a sys-
tenn Of religious teaching, you
must examine the lives Of the men
III whom it Is real vital force, not
the lives Of the sham professors.
Religion n S suffered more, if.
possible. from the ineompeteucy
and the narrowness Of its would-be
defenders. Its advocates have
clung too tenaciously to the past
they have put too much stress up
on the authority Of the ancients.
Failing TO grasp the import Of the
developments in modern sciencel
and philosophic thought, and fail
ing to avail themselves Of the re-
suits OF modern scholarship, they
have arrayed themselves against
! the forces that should be their
strong support.
This charge is not universally
true. Far from it, there are more
progressive and earnest advocates
Of religion today than ever before,
and they are making tremendous
efforts TO burst the chains Of tradi
ton which have so long enthralled
their brethren. They are sweep
ing aside the musty volumes Of
religious teachings Of the fathers
and are seeking to put forth relig-
ious teachings that meet the needs
OF the present age They are
practical men, who care little for
the metaphysical quibblings Of the
old theologians. but they care
much for the puzziing problems Of
modern individual and social life.
However. the Indictment holds
good; tie cause Of religion has suf
fcred and still suffers from its un-
wise defenders. Thinking men
viii not listen to appeals from the
past; they have little patience with
teachers who fail TO recognize that
the world moyes-that the men Of
today have a larger and clearer IN /
sight into scientific philosypluc
ana religioustruts ihan The media
eval doctors bad b aever sanity
their characters ie.
Men 81 today have iaith, but it
/ is not faith in the worn out dog |
mas. and the disprcrs Nasentions
Of the old apologists faith
of the kind that Tenn aal in
mind, when he said:
There lives more faith in l9nest
doubt,
Believe me, than in half the
creeds.
